LETTER FROM THE BOARD

At the Closing, the Company and CBPO intend to enter into the Investor Rights Agreement in relation to the Company’s rights and obligations as a shareholder of CBPO after the Closing. The Investor Rights Agreement provides, among others, that the Company may designate one director to the board of directors of CBPO as long as the shares of CBPO beneficially owned by the Company represent at least 10% of the issued and outstanding share capital of CBPO immediately after the Closing.

The highest applicable percentage ratio (as defined in the Listing Rules) in respect of the Subscription is more than 100% and the highest applicable percentage ratio in respect of the Disposal is more than 75%. As a result, the Subscription constitutes a very substantial acquisition and the Disposal constitutes a very substantial disposal for the Company and accordingly the Subscription and the Disposal are subject to the announcement, circular and shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules.

The purpose of this circular is to provide you with, among other things (i) the audited financial information on CBPO for the three financial years ended December 31, 2016 and the unaudited financial information for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2017 prepared under U.S. GAAP; (ii) a line-by-line reconciliation of CBPO’s financial information for the differences between CBPO’s accounting policies under U.S. GAAP and the Company’s accounting policies under HKFRS; (iii) accountant’s report on the Group for the three financial years ended December 31, 2016, including the relevant financial information of the Disposal Business; (iv) the unaudited financial information for the six months ended June 30, 2017 of the Group, including the relevant financial information of the Disposal Business; and (v) the pro forma financial information of the New Group.

As confirmed by CBPO, Mr. Marc Chan made his first public filing with respect to his beneficial ownership in CBPO on November 5, 2015 as a result of purchases of existing shares of CBPO and CBPO did not issue any new shares to Mr. Marc Chan.

To the best knowledge and belief of the Company after having made all reasonable enquiries, (i) other than Mr. Marc Chan’s shareholding interests in CBPO, there is no relationship between any of the Company, its controlling Shareholder, directors and connected persons on the one hand, and CBPO on the other hand; and (ii) other than Mr. Marc Chan’s shareholding interests in the Company, there is no relationship (including business relationship) between Mr. Marc Chan and the Company (including its connected persons). CBPO and the Subscription were introduced to the Company by a director of CBPO, who is, to the best knowledge and belief of the Company after having made all reasonable enquiries, independent of Mr. Marc Chan.

As confirmed by CBPO, there is no relationship (including business relationship) between Mr. Marc Chan and CBPO, other than his shareholding interests in CBPO.

Subject Matter

The Company agreed to subscribe for the CBPO Shares at the subscription price of US$93.0 (equivalent to approximately RMB611.9) per CBPO Share in consideration of the entire issued share capital of Health Forward, at a total value of approximately US$513.45 million (equivalent to approximately RMB3.38 billion).

  • . a discount of 1.20% of the average closing price per share of CBPO on the NASDAQ for 30 trading days immediately preceding the date of the Announcement;

  • . a discount of 0.83% of the average closing price per share of CBPO on the NASDAQ for 20 trading days immediately preceding the date of the Announcement;

The subscription price of the CBPO Shares was determined after arm’s length negotiations between the Company and CBPO with reference to the prevailing market prices of the ordinary shares of CBPO, the recent market conditions and the historical financial position and business performance of CBPO.

The CBPO Shares to be issued by CBPO to the Company will be proportionally adjusted upon occurrence of any subdivision, combination or share or extraordinary dividend of or on CBPO’s ordinary shares with an effective or record date during the period from the date of the Share Exchange Agreement until the Closing.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

5. REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE TRANSACTION

The Company considered the acquisition of the CBPO Shares is beneficial to the Company’s business development for the following reasons:

  • . Expansion into the plasma industry in the PRC. By the acquisition of the CBPO Shares, the Company expands into a new area in medical industry in the PRC with fastgrowing, high-margin and high-potential opportunities, which is in line with the Company’s long-term strategies.

China is the second largest plasma products market in the world, after the U.S.. According to The Marketing Research Bureau, Inc., or MRB, an independent research firm focused on blood and plasma industry data on a global level, China’s plasma products market (excluding recombinant products) grew from US$0.80 billion (equivalent to approximately RMB5.26 billion) in 2009 to US$2.47 billion (equivalent to approximately RMB16.25 billion) in 2015 in terms of sales revenue, representing a compound annual growth rate of 20.7%. MRB expects that by 2018, China’s plasmaderived products market will reach over US$3.3 billion (equivalent to approximately RMB21.71 billion), representing about a 35% increase from 2015, assuming domestic plasma supply continues to grow at least 8% annually.

There is also a high industry entry barrier for China’s plasma industry. The PRC State Council has ceased issuing new plasma fractionation licenses since 2001, and there are approximately 30 licensed producers of plasma products in China, of which only approximately 28 are currently in operation. As a result, the existing China-based producers with large production capacities, like CBPO, face relatively limited competition and are well positioned to gain more market share during the industry consolidation phase.

  • . Leading market position of CBPO in the PRC. CBPO has an established plasma business with good track record. It is a leading producer of plasma products in the PRC with strong growth potential. It is among the top three producers of plasma products in the PRC in terms of 2016 sales, according to CBPO’s 2016 annual report. Please refer to the section headed ‘‘Information on the Parties and Tianxinfu’’ above for more information about CBPO.

  • . Potential synergy between the businesses of Tianxinfu and CBPO. Tianxinfu is the largest manufacturer of artificial dura mater in the PRC. As both Tianxinfu and CBPO are industry leaders in the biomaterial industry in the PRC with state of art technology and know-how, the Company believes that a smooth business combination could create a sharing platform for both Tianxinfu and CBPO to consolidate their leading market positions and realize rapid growth. In particular, Tianxinfu would be able to strengthen its core business by leveraging CBPO’s existing market presence to cross-sell and offer bundle pricing opportunities, and expand its customer bases by growing into CBPO’s

– 17 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

sales channels, hospitals and departments. At the same time, the combined scale of Tianxinfu and CBPO could also reduce costs, optimize spending, broaden market exposure and improve bargaining power with distributors, customers and suppliers.

  • . Effective way to optimize shareholder value. The transactions under the Share Exchange Agreement are valued at a total amount of approximately US$513.45 million (equivalent to approximately RMB3.38 billion), which provides the Shareholders with an attractive valuation of the Disposal Group and, compared with the proposed A share listing of Tianxinfu, is expected to be consummated with more certainty and expedited timetable. The Company believes that the combination of Tianxinfu with CBPO would enhance the Company’s overall valuation and create values for the Company and its shareholders.

  • . Access to U.S. capital market. Upon the Closing, the Company is expected to become the single largest shareholder of CBPO with CBPO board-approved exemption from triggering the Poison Pill Plan for any future increase of shareholding in CBPO prior to the Lock-up Date, which offers the Company an access to the U.S. capital market. Although the Company currently does not have any intention to further increase its shareholding in CBPO after Closing, it does not exclude the possibility of increasing its shareholding in CBPO in the future after reviewing its investment in CBPO from time to time based on market conditions and the Company’s financial resources.

The Company is making a long-term strategic investment in CBPO, which also lays the foundation for future business partnership between the Company and CBPO. The investment restrictions and voting agreement under the Investor Rights Agreement are not uncommon in the strategic investment/partnership situations. Therefore, the Company does not consider such arrangements as significant restrictions on its rights as a shareholder of CBPO and believe they are acceptable in light of the overall commercial considerations for this strategic investment, which the Board believes is in the interests of the Company and its Shareholders. Moreover, the Company negotiated a fiduciary duty carve-out regarding the voting agreement to ensure appropriate discharge of the Board’s fiduciary duties.

Accordingly, notwithstanding that the CBPO Shares held by the Company would only be treated as an investment in an associate of the Company at the outset, as a long-term strategic partner of CBPO and with the listing status on the Stock Exchange also with access to the U.S. capital market, the Company is expected to be exposed to diversified coverage and enhance its corporate image in two international financial centers, which could create more potentials and possibilities for the Company’s future development.

Based on the above, the Directors believe that the terms of the Agreements are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

6. PROPOSED A SHARE LISTING OF TIANXINFU

Reference is made to the announcement of the Company dated July 24, 2017 in relation to the proposed spin-off and A share listing of Tianxinfu (the ‘‘Tianxinfu A Share Listing’’). Under the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company shall cease to take any step toward the Tianxifu A Share Listing until the Closing, and CBPO undertakes that, if an initial public offering of the securities of a member of the Disposal Group is in the best interests of CBPO, it will use commercially reasonable efforts to effect such initial public offering on an internationally recognized stock exchange as and when such securities become eligible for listing on such stock exchange.

If the Share Exchange Agreement is terminated for any reason, the Company intends to implement the Tianxinfu A Share Listing in accordance with the proposals as set out in the circular of the Company dated August 8, 2017. If Tianxinfu (or other member of the Disposal Group) applies for a separate listing, the Company will comply with Practice Note 15 and other rules of the Listing Rules, to the extent applicable.

7. LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS

The highest applicable percentage ratio (as defined in the Listing Rules) in respect of the Subscription is more than 100% and the highest applicable percentage ratio in respect of the Disposal is more than 75%. As a result, the Subscription constitutes a very substantial acquisition and the Disposal constitutes a very substantial disposal for the Company and accordingly the Subscription and the Disposal are subject to the announcement, circular and shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules.

8. WAIVER FROM STRICT COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 14.69(4)(A)(I) OF THE LISTING RULES AND CHAPTER 4 OF THE LISTING RULES

Pursuant to Rule 14.69(4)(a)(i) of the Listing Rules, the Company is required to include in this circular an accountant’s report on CBPO prepared in accordance with the accounting policies used by the Company in the preparation of its own financial statements. The Company has considered that:

  • (i) upon the Closing, CBPO will not become a subsidiary of the Company and its results will not be consolidated in the financial statements of the Company. The Company’s minority interest in CBPO would be treated as an investment in an associate and accounted for using the equity method of accounting;

  • (ii) CBPO is required to file its financial information with the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission (the ‘‘SEC’’) periodically within prescribed deadlines. CBPO published its audited financial statements on a yearly basis and its unaudited financial statements on a quarterly basis on SEC website. These financial disclosures published by CBPO were subject to regulation by NASDAQ and the SEC;

– 19 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

  • (iii) the financial statements of CBPO as of December 31, 2014, 2015, and 2016 and for the years then ended, which were prepared under U.S. GAAP, were audited by KPMG Huazhen LLP (the ‘‘KPMG Huazhen’’) in accordance with the standards of Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and published on the SEC website;

  • (iv) the financial statements of CBPO for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2017 were reviewed by KPMG Huazhen in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and published on the SEC website;

  • (v) KPMG Huazhen is a member firm of the KPMG network of independent member firms affiliated with KPMG International Cooperative, a Swiss entity. KPMG Huazhen is also registered with a recognized body of accountants, namely the Beijing Institute of Certified Public Accountants;

  • (vi) as advised by CBPO, it is not able to give access to its accounting records and provide explanation in relation to the same for the Company’s auditor to audit its accounts prepared under HKFRS given (a) CBPO is bound by the relevant securities regulations of the U.S. which require all publicly traded companies to disclose material information to all investors at the same time, as a result CBPO cannot disclose any non-public financial information to the Company; (b) it is not the prevailing market practice in the U.S. for an investor making a private minority investment in a public company to be granted access to non-public financial information; and (c) considerable amount of additional work will be required to convert CBPO’s financial information for each of the three financial years ended December 31, 2016 and the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2017 from U.S. GAAP to HKFRS, which is not commensurate with a transaction of the same nature. Accordingly, it would be unduly burdensome and impractical for the Company to produce an accountants’ report on CBPO in the circular for the following reasons:

  • (a) the Company does not have access to non-public financial information of CBPO, as a result it would be impractical for the Company to prepare an accountants’ report on CBPO due to the lack of access to CBPO’s accounting records; and

  • (b) the Company would incur significant costs and expenses to conduct an audit or review of CBPO’s accounts prepared in accordance with HKFRS and significantly delay completion of the Subscription, which may not be in the best interest of the Shareholders. The Company estimates that additional three to four months and approximately RMB13 million to RMB15 million audit fees could be incurred to audit or review the financial information of CBPO.

– 20 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

As an alternative to disclosure in compliance with Rule 14.69(4)(a)(i) of the Listing Rules, the following have been included in this circular:

  • (i) the audited financial information on CBPO for the three financial years ended December 31, 2016 and the unaudited financial information for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2017 prepared under U.S. GAAP;

  • (ii) a line-by-line reconciliation of CBPO’s financial information for the differences between CBPO’s accounting policies under U.S. GAAP and the Company’s accounting policies under HKFRS; and

  • (iii) additional information which is required for an accountants’ report under Chapter 4 of the Listing Rules but not disclosed in the published financial statements of CBPO.

Accordingly, the Company considers that the alternative disclosure would provide sufficient information to the Shareholders to make a properly informed assessment on the performance and financial information of CBPO and the Disposal Group to vote for or against the Subscription and Disposal at the EGM, and that the relaxation with the requirements under Rule 14.69(4)(a)(i) of the Listing Rules would be unlikely to result in undue risks to the Shareholders.

The Company has applied for, and has been granted, a waiver from strict compliance with the requirements under Rule 14.69(4)(a)(i) of the Listing Rules.

9. EGM AND PROXY ARRANGEMENT

The EGM will be held at 10:00 a.m. on December 1, 2017 (Friday), at 1002–1003, Block C, Focus Square, No. 6 Futong East Avenue, Wangjing, Chaoyang District, Beijing, PRC, at which an ordinary resolution will be proposed to consider and, if thought fit, approve the transactions as contemplated under the Agreements.

ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF THE GROUP

APPENDIX I

II. NOTES TO THE HISTORICAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

1 GENERAL INFORMATION

PW Medtech Group Limited (the ‘‘Company’’, previously known as ‘‘Pyholding Limited’’) was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on 13 May 2011 as an exempted company with limited liability under the Companies Law (2010 Revision) of the Cayman Islands. The address of the Company’s registered office is the Grand Pavilion Commercial Centre, Oleander Way, 802 West Bay Road, P.O. Box 32052, Grand Cayman KY1-1208, Cayman Islands. The Company’s shares have been listed on the Main Board of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the ‘‘Stock Exchange’’) since 8 November 2013.

The Company is an investment holding company. The Company and its subsidiaries (together, the ‘‘Group’’) are principally engaged in the development, manufacturing and sale of (i) regenerative medical biomaterial products (the ‘‘Regenerative Medical Biomaterial Business’’); (ii) advanced infusion set products (the ‘‘Infusion Set Business’’); and (iii) orthopedic implants products in the People’s Republic of China (the ‘‘PRC’’). In 2016, the Orthopedic Implant Business was disposed of and presented as a discontinued operations during the Track Record Period (Note 33).

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of the historical financial information of the Group are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

2.1 Basis of preparation

The Historical Financial Information of the Group have been prepared in accordance with all applicable Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (‘‘HKFRS’’). The Historical Financial Information of the Group have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and available-for-sale financial assets, which are carried at fair value.

The preparation of the Historical Financial Information of the Group in conformity with HKFRS 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 Historical Financial Information of the Group are disclosed in Note 4.

ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF THE GROUP

APPENDIX I

2.1.1 Changes in accounting policy and disclosures

New standards and interpretations not yet adopted

The following new standards, amendments and interpretations have been issued but are not effective for the financial year beginning 1 January 2017, and have not been early adopted by the Group.

Effective for
annual periods
beginning on or
after
HKFRS 9 Financial Instruments 1 January 2018
HKFRS 15 Revenue from contracts with customers 1 January 2018
HKFRS 2 (Amendment) Classification and measurement of share-based payment 1 January 2018
transactions
HKFRS 4 (Amendment) Amendments regarding implementation of HKFRS 9 1 January 2018
HKFRS 15 (Amendment) Revenue from contracts with customers — Clarifications 1 January 2018
Annual improvement Amendments to other HKFRSs 1 January 2018
2014–2016
HK(IFRIC) 22 Foreign currency transactions and advance consideration 1 January 2018
HKFRS 16 Leases 1 January 2019
HK(IFRIC) 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments 1 January 2019
HKFRS 10 and HKAS 28 Sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its 1 January 2019
(Amendment) associate or joint venture

The Group has already commenced an assessment of the impact of these new or revised standards which are relevant to the Group’s operation. According to the preliminary assessment made by the directors of the Company, no significant impact on the financial performance and positions of the Group is expected when adopting HKFRS 9 and HKFRS 15. The directors also do not expect the adoption of HKFRS 16 would result in significant impact on the Group’s financial performance and positions except for the recognition of the right-of use assets and corresponding lease liabilities arising from accounting for operating leases by the Group as a lessee.

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.

HKFRS 9 must be applied for financial years commencing on or after 1 January 2018. 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.

Management is currently assessing the effects of applying the new standard on the Group’s financial statements.

– I-16 –

ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF THE GROUP

APPENDIX I

At this stage, the Group is reviewing the contracts and will make more detailed assessments of the impact over the twelve months.

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.

HKFRS 16, ‘Leases’

HKFRS 16 will result in almost all leases being recognised on the balance sheet, 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. As at the reporting date, the Group has non-cancellable operating lease commitments of RMB2,765,000, see Note 36. However, the Group has not yet determined to what extent these commitments will result in the recognition of an asset and a liability for future payments and how this will affect the Group’s profit and classification of cash flows.

Some of the 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.

There are no other HKFRSs or HK (IFRIC) interpretations that are not yet effective that would be expected to have a material impact on the Group.

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.

(a) Business combination

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

– I-17 –

ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF THE GROUP

APPENDIX I

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 HKFRS.

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 either in profit or loss or as a change to other comprehensive income. Contingent consideration that is classified as equity is not remeasured, 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 previous 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 income statement.

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.

(b) Changes in ownership interests in subsidiaries without change of control

Transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions — that is, as transactions with the owners in their capacity as owners. The difference between fair value of any consideration paid and the relevant share acquired of the carrying value of net assets of the subsidiary is recorded in equity. Gains or losses on disposals to noncontrolling interests are also recorded in equity.

(c) Disposals of subsidiaries

When the Group ceases to have control, any retained interest in the entity is re-measured 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. It means the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss or transferred to another category of equity as specified/permitted by applicable HKFRSs.

– I-18 –

ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF THE GROUP

APPENDIX I

2.2.2 Separate financial statements

Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost less impairment. Cost also 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 dividends 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 historical financial information of the Group of the investee’s net assets including goodwill.

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 steering committee that makes strategic decisions.

2.4 Foreign currency translation

(a) Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the historical financial information of the Group 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 historical financial information of the Group are presented in RMB, which is the Company’s functional currency 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-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the consolidated income statement, 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 income statement within ‘‘finance income or costs’’. All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in the income statement within ‘‘Finance (costs)/income — 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.

– I-19 –

ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF THE GROUP

APPENDIX I

  • (c) Group companies

The results and financial position of all the Group entities (none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:

  • (1) assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of that balance sheet;

  • (2) income and expenses for each income statement 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

  • (3) all resulting exchange 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.

2.5 Land use rights

Land use rights are up-front payments to acquire long-term interests in the usage of land. It is stated at cost and charged to the consolidated income statement over the remaining period of the lease on a straight-line basis, net of any impairment losses.

2.6 Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment, other than construction in progress, are stated at historical cost less depreciation and provision for impairment loss, if any. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.

Subsequent costs are included in the assets’ 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 are charged to the consolidated income statement during the year in which they are incurred.

Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost to their residual values over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

Buildings and facilities 10–48 years
Leasehold improvements Shorter of remaining lease term or useful lives
Furniture, fittings and equipment 3–10 years
Machinery and equipment 5–10 years
Motor vehicles 5 years

Construction in progress represents buildings, plant and machinery under construction or pending installation and is stated at cost less provision for impairment loss, if any. Cost includes the costs of construction and acquisition. When the assets concerned are available for use, the costs are transferred to property, plant and equipment and depreciated in accordance with the policy as stated above.

The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.

– I-20 –

ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF THE GROUP

APPENDIX I

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 — net’’ in the consolidated income statement.

2.7 Intangible assets

(a) Goodwill

Goodwill arises on the acquisition of subsidiaries and represents the excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the identified net assets acquired.

For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to each of the cash-generating units (‘‘CGUs’’), or Groups of CGUs, that is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. Each unit or Group of units to which the goodwill is allocated represents the lowest level within the entity at which the goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes. Goodwill is monitored at the operating segment level.

Goodwill impairment reviews are undertaken annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate a potential impairment. The carrying value of the CGU containing the goodwill is compared to the recoverable amount, which is the higher of value in use and the fair value less costs of disposals. Any impairment is recognised immediately as an expense and is not subsequently reversed.

(b) Customer relationship

Customer relationship acquired in a business combination is recognised at fair value at the acquisition date and are amortised using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of 6 years.

(c) Trademarks and technology know-how

Separately acquired trademarks and technology know-how at historical cost. Trademarks and technology know-how acquired in a business combination are recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. Trademarks and technology know-how have a finite useful life and are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation. Amortisation is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate the cost of trademarks and technology know-how over their estimated useful lives of 15 years.

(d) Computer software

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 5 years.

2.8 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 impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date.

ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF THE GROUP

APPENDIX I

2.9 Non-current assets (or disposals groups) held-for-sale and discontinued operations

Non-current assets (or disposals groups) are classified as held for sale when their carrying amount is to be recovered principally through a sale transaction and a sale is considered highly probable. The non-current assets (except for certain assets as explained below), (or disposals groups), are stated at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Deferred tax assets, assets arising from employee benefits, financial assets (other than investments in subsidiaries and associates) and investment properties, which are classified as held for sale, would continue to be measured in accordance with the policies set out elsewhere in Note 2.

A discontinued operation is a component of the Group’s business, the operations and cash flows of which can be clearly distinguished from the rest of the Group and which represents a separate major line of business or geographic area of operations, or is part of a single co-ordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations, or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale.

When an operation is classified as discontinued, a single amount is presented in the statement of profit or loss, which comprises the post-tax profit or loss of the discontinued operation and the post-tax gain or loss recognised on the measurement to fair value less costs to sell, or on the disposals, of the assets or disposals groups constituting the discontinued operation.

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. These are classified as non-current assets. The Group’s loans and receivables comprise ‘‘trade and other receivables’’, ‘‘restricted cash’’, ‘‘term deposits’’ and ‘‘cash and cash equivalents’’ in the consolidated balance sheet (Note 15, 16, 17 and 18).

(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 non-current assets unless the investment matures or management intends to dispose of it within 12 months of the end of the reporting period.

– I-22 –

ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF THE GROUP

APPENDIX I

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 profit or loss. 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-for-sale 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.

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 income statement within ‘‘Other gains — net’’ in the period in which they arise. Dividend income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss is recognised in the income statement 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 for sale are recognised in other comprehensive income.

When securities classified as available-for-sale financial assets are sold or impaired, the accumulated fair value adjustments recognised in equity are included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income as ‘‘other gains — net’’.

Interest on available-for-sale securities calculated using the effective interest method is recognised in the income statement as part of other income. Dividends on available-for-sale equity instruments are recognised in the income statement as part of other income when the Group’s right to receive payments is established.

2.11 Impairment of financial assets

(a) Asset 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.

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 indicates 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 profit or loss. If a loan 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.

– I-23 –

ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF THE GROUP

APPENDIX I

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 profit or loss.

(b) Asset 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 income statement.

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 in profit or loss on equity instruments are not reversed through the consolidated income statement.

2.12 Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined using 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). The cost excludes borrowing costs. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less applicable variable selling expenses.

2.13 Trade and other receivables

Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for goods sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business. 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.

2.14 Cash and cash equivalents

In the consolidated statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, and short-term highly liquid investments with original maturity of three months or less.

2.15 Share capital

Ordinary shares are classified as equity.

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.

– I-24 –

ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF THE GROUP

APPENDIX I

2.16 Trade and other payables

Trade and othesr payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Trade and other payable 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 noncurrent liabilities.

Trade and other payables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

2.17 Current and deferred income tax

The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the consolidated income statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this 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’s 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. It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.

(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 historical financial information of the Group. However, deferred tax liabilities are not recognised if they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill, 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 and associates, 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.

– I-25 –

ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF THE GROUP

APPENDIX I

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 tax 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.

2.18 Employee benefits

(a) Pension obligations

The full-time employees of the Group in the PRC are covered by various government-sponsored defined contribution pension plans under which the employees are entitled to a monthly pension based on certain formulas. The relevant government agencies are responsible for the pension liability to these retired employees. The Group contributes on a monthly basis to these pension plans. Under these plans, the Group has no obligation for post-retirement benefits beyond the contributions made. Contributions to these plans are expenses as incurred and contributions paid to the defined-contribution pension plans for a staff are not available to reduce the Group’s future obligations to such defined-contribution pension plans even if the staff leaves the Group.

(b) Housing benefits

The Group contributes to the state-prescribed housing fund. Such costs are charged to the consolidated income statement as incurred. Apart from those described above, the Group does not have other legal or constructive obligations over such benefits.

(c) Bonus entitlements

The expected cost of bonus payments is recognised as a liability when the Group has a present contractual or constructive obligation as a result of services rendered by employees and a reliable estimate of the obligation can be made.

2.19 Share based payments

(a) Equity-settled share-based payment transactions

The Group operates a number of equity-settled, share-based compensation plans, under which the entity receives services from employees as consideration for equity instruments of the Group. The fair value of the employee services received in exchange for the grant of the options is recognised as an expense. The total amount to be expensed is determined by reference to the fair value of the options granted:

  • . including any market performance conditions (for example, an entity’s share price);

  • . excluding the impact of any service and non-market performance vesting conditions (for example, profitability, sales growth targets and remaining an employee of the entity over a specified time period); and

  • . including the impact of any non-vesting conditions (for example, the requirement for employees to save or holding shares for a specified period of time).

– I-26 –

ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF THE GROUP

APPENDIX I

Non-market performance and service conditions are included in assumptions about the number of options that are expected to vest. The total expense is recognised over the vesting period, which is the period over which all of the specified vesting conditions are to be satisfied.

In addition, in some circumstances employees may provide services in advance of the grant date and therefore the grant date fair value is estimated for the purposes of recognising the expense during the period between service commencement period and grant date.

At the end of each reporting period, the Group revises its estimates of the number of options that are expected to vest based on the non-marketing performance and service conditions. It recognises the impact of the revision to original estimates, if any, in the income statement, with a corresponding adjustment to equity.

When the options are exercised, the Company issues new shares. The proceeds received net of any directly attributable transaction costs are credited to share capital (nominal value) and share premium.

(b) Share-based payment transactions among Group entities

The grant by the Company of options over its equity instruments to the employees of subsidiary undertakings in the Group is treated as a capital contribution. The fair value of employee services received, measured by reference to the grant date fair value, is recognised over the vesting period as an increase to investment in subsidiary undertakings, with a corresponding credit to equity in the parent entity accounts.

2.20 Provisions and contingent liabilities

Provisions 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 Group’s 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.

2.21 Revenue recognition

Revenue comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods in the ordinary course of the Group’s activities. Revenue is shown net of value-added tax, returns, rebates and discounts and after elimination of sales made within the Group.

– I-27 –

ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF THE GROUP

APPENDIX I

The Group recognises revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity and specific criteria have been met for each of the Group’s activities as described below. The amount of revenue is not considered to be reliably measurable until all contingencies relating to the sale have been resolved. The Group bases its estimates on historical results, taking into consideration the type of customer, the type of transaction and the specifics of each arrangement.

(a) Sales of medical devices and related products

Sales of medical devices and related products are recognised when the risk and reward of the goods has been transferred to the customer, which is usually at the date when a Group entity has delivered products to the customer, the customer has accepted the products, and there is no unfulfilled obligation that could affect the customer’s acceptance of the products.

(b) Interest income

Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method. When a loan and receivable is impaired, the Group reduces the carrying amount to its recoverable amount, being the estimated future cash flow discounted at the original effective interest rate of the instrument, and continues unwinding the discount as interest income. Interest income on impaired loan and receivables is recognised using the original effective interest rate.

(c) Dividend income

Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive payment is established.

2.22 Government grants

Grants from the government are recognised at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and the Group will comply with all the attached conditions.

Government grants relating to costs are deferred and recognised in the consolidated income statement over the period necessary to match them with the costs that they are intended to compensate.

Government grants relating to assets are included in non-current liabilities as deferred income and are credited to the consolidated income statement on a straight-line basis over the expected useful lives of the related assets.

2.23 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 income statement on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

2.24 Dividend distribution

Dividend distribution to the Company’s shareholders is recognised as a liability in the Group and the Company’s financial statements in the period in which the dividends are approved by the Company’s shareholders or directors, where appropriate.

2.25 Research and development

Research expenditure is recognised as an expense as incurred. Costs incurred on development projects relating to design and testing of new or improved products are recognised as intangible assets when it is probable that the project will be a success, considering its commercial and technological feasibility, and costs can be measured reliably. Other development expenditures are recognised as an expense as incurred. Development costs previously recognised as an expense are not recognised as an asset in a subsequent period.

3 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

3.1 Financial risk factors

The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including foreign exchange risk, fair value interest rate risk, cash flow interest rate risk and price 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.

Risk management is carried out by finance department and Chief Financial Officer under policies approved by the board of directors of the Company (the ‘‘Board’’). Group treasury department identifies and evaluates in close co-operation with the Group’s operating units. The Board provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as written policies covering specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, liquidity risk, and non-derivative financial instruments, and investment of excess liquidity.

(a) Market risk

(i) Foreign exchange risk

The Group mainly operates in the PRC and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures, primarily with respect to the United States dollar (‘‘USD’’). Foreign exchange risk arises from foreign currencies held in certain overseas subsidiaries. The Group does not hedge against any fluctuation in foreign currency during the years. Management may consider entering into currency hedging transactions to manage the Group’s exposure towards fluctuations in exchange rates in the future.

As at 31 December 2014, 2015 and 2016, the foreign exchange risk is immaterial to the Group.

(ii) Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk

Other than bank balances with variable interest rates, the Group has no other significant interestbearing assets. Management does not anticipate any significant impact to interest-bearing assets resulted from the changes in interest rates, because the interest rates of bank balances are not expected to change significantly.

The Group’s interest rate risk arises from borrowings including interest-free loan received from a related party. Borrowings issued at variable rates expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk, which is partially offset by cash, held at variable rates. Borrowings obtained at fixed rates expose the Group to fair value interest-rate risk. The Group has not hedged its cash flow and fair value interest rate risks.

The Group adjusts the proportion of fixed interest rate debts and variable interest rate debts when the market environment change. As at 31 December 2014, 2015 and 2016, the Group’s interest-bearing debt are as follows:

— Debt at floating rate As at 31 December

75,000
2016

– I-29 –

ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF THE GROUP

APPENDIX I

(iii) Price risk

The Group exposes to commodity price risk, mainly due to the fluctuations in prices of plastic, which are the key raw materials to the Group’s products of its Infusion Set Business. During the period, the management considers the price risk exposure is not material, and the Group has the flexibility to pass the increases in raw material costs to the Group’s customers.

(b) Credit risk

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade and other receivables and available-for-sale financial assets represent the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk in relation to its financial assets. The objective of the Group’s measures to manage credit risk is to control potential exposure to recoverability problem.

The credit risk of bank balances is limited because the counterparties are banks with good reputation and most of them are the four largest state-owned commercial banks in the PRC, or public listed companies. Most of the bank deposits of the Group are placed with financial commercial banks with a BBB+ or above Standard and Poor credit rating.

In respect of trade and other receivables, individual credit evaluations are performed on all customers and counterparties. These evaluations focus on the counterparty’s financial position, past history of making payments and take into account information specific to the counterparty as well as pertaining to the economic environment in which the counterparty operates. Monitoring procedures have been implemented to ensure the follow-up action is taken to recover overdue debts. We grant credit limits to certain customers in consideration of their payment history and business performance. Prepayment is usually required for orders placed over credit limits. In addition, the Group reviews the recoverable amount of each individual trade and other receivable balance at the end of the year to ensure adequate impairment losses are made for irrecoverable amounts.

Available-for-sale financial assets are short-term investments placed with state-owned financial institution in the PRC. There was no recent history of default and the executive directors of the Group are of the opinion that the credit risk related to the investment is low.

(c) Liquidity risk

The Group’s policy is to regularly monitor current and expected liquidity requirements and its compliance with debt covenants, and to ensure that it maintains sufficient reserves of cash and adequate committed lines of funding from banks and other financial institutions to meet their liquidity requirements in the short and longer term. Management believes there is no significant liquidity risk as the Group has sufficient committed facilities to fund their operations.

3.2 Capital 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 benefits for other stakeholders 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, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.

Consistent with others in the industry, the Group monitors capital on the basis of the gearing ratio. This ratio is calculated as total borrowings divided by total capital. Total borrowings are current borrowings as shown in the consolidated balance sheet plus amounts due to related parties of non — trading nature. Total capital is calculated as ‘‘total equity’’ as shown in the consolidated balance sheet plus total borrowings.

  • 3.3 Fair value estimation

  • (a) The Group adopts the amendment to HKFRS 9 for financial instruments that are measured in the consolidated balance sheets at fair value, which requires disclosure of fair value measurements by level of the following fair value measurement hierarchy:

    • . 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).

4 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

4.1 Critical accounting estimates and assumptions

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.

(a) Income taxes

Significant judgment is required in determining the 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.

According to the applicable PRC tax regulations, dividends distributed by a company established in the PRC to a foreign investor with respect to profits derived after 1 January 2008 are generally subject to a 10% PRC withholding tax (‘‘WHT’’). If a foreign investor incorporated in Hong Kong meets the conditions and requirements under the double taxation treaty arrangement entered into between the PRC and Hong Kong, the relevant withholding tax rate will be reduced from 10% to 5%.

During the Track Record Period, the Group does not have any plan to require its PRC subsidiaries to distribute their retained earnings and intends to retain them to operate and expand the Group’s business in the PRC. Accordingly, no deferred income tax liability on WHT was accrued as of 31 December 2014, 2015 and 2016.

(b) Impairment of trade and other receivables

Management reviews its trade and other receivables for objective evidence of impairment. Significant financial difficulties of the debtor, the probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy, and default or significant delay in payments are considered as objective evidence that a receivable is impaired. In determining this, management makes judgments as to whether there is observable data indicating that there has been a significant change in the payment ability of the debtor, or whether there have been significant

– I-33 –

ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF THE GROUP

APPENDIX I

changes with adverse effect on the market and economic environment in which the debtor operates in. Where there is objective evidence of impairment, management makes judgments as to whether an impairment loss should be recorded as an expense.

(c) Estimated impairment of goodwill

The Group tests annually whether goodwill has suffered any impairment in accordance with the accounting policy stated in Note 2.7(a). The recoverable amounts of CGUs have been determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculations require the use of estimates.

According to the valuations results produced by the management of the Company based on the assumptions as disclosed in Note 8, management considered that no impairment charge was required against goodwill arising from acquisitions during the Track Record Period.

In the opinion of the Company’s directors, regarding Infusion Set Business, Orthopedic Implant Business or Regenerative Medical Biomaterial Business respectively, had the gross margin been 2% lower with other assumptions held constant, or had the terminal growth rate been 2% lower with other assumptions held constant, or had the discount rate been 1% higher with other assumptions held constant, there would be no impairment charge needed to be made against goodwill of the Group for the Track Record Period.

(d) Useful lives of property, plant and equipment

The Group determines the estimated useful lives for its property, plant and equipment based on the historical experience of the actual useful lives of property, plant and equipment of similar nature and functions. The Group will revise the depreciation charges where useful lives are different from previously estimated, or it will write off or write down technically obsolete or non-strategic assets that have been abandoned or sold.

5 SEGMENT INFORMATION

Goodwill is monitored by the management at the operating segment level.

The recoverable amount of a CGU is determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculations use pre-tax cash flow projections based on financial budgets approved by management covering a five-year period. Cash flows beyond the five-year period are extrapolated using the estimated growth rates stated below. The growth rate does not exceed the long-term average growth rate for the businesses in which the CGU operates.

  • Orthopedic Implant Business was disposed in 2016. (Note 33).

The key assumptions used for value-in-use calculations in 2014, 2015 and 2016 are as follows:

Gross margin

These assumptions have been used for the analysis of the CGU within the operating segment.

Management determined budgeted gross margin based on past performance and its expectations of market development. The discount rates used are pre-tax and reflect specific risks relating to the operating segment.

Management does not foresee any significant change in the key assumptions used in the value-in-use calculation that will cause the recoverable amount of goodwill to be less than its carrying amount.

Below are the major tax jurisdictions that the Group operates during the Track Record Period.

(a) Cayman Islands profits tax

The Company has not been subject to any taxation in the Cayman Islands.

(b) Hong Kong profits tax

Companies incorporated in Hong Kong are subject to the Hong Kong profits tax at a rate of 16.5% during the Track Record Period.

(c) The PRC Corporate Income Tax (the ‘‘CIT’’)

Except for Tianxinfu and Fert Technology, the CIT of the Group in respect of its operations in mainland China is calculated at the tax rate of 25% on the estimated assessable profits for each of the year, based on the existing legislation interpretation and practices in respect thereof.

Tianxinfu and Fert Technology were qualified as ‘‘High and New Technology Enterprises’’ under the CIT Law. Therefore, they were entitled to a preferential income tax rate of 15% on their estimated assessable profits during the years. They will continue to enjoy the preferential tax rate in the subsequent periods, provided that they continue to be qualified as ‘‘High and New Technology Enterprises’’ during such periods.

ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF THE GROUP

APPENDIX I

(d) WHT

According to the applicable PRC tax regulations, dividends distributed by a company established in the PRC to a foreign investor with respect to profits derived after 1 January 2008 are generally subject to WHT. If a foreign investor incorporated in Hong Kong meets the conditions and requirements under the double taxation treaty arrangement entered into between the PRC and Hong Kong, the relevant withholding tax rate will be reduced from 10% to 5%.

The Group does not have any plan to require its PRC subsidiaries to distribute their retained earnings and intends to retain them to operate and expand the Group’s business in the PRC. Accordingly, no deferred income tax liability on WHT was accrued as of the end of 2014, 2015 and 2016.

The tax on the Group’s profit before tax differs from the theoretical amount that would arise using the weighted average tax rate applicable to profits of the consolidated entities as follows:

Profit before income tax
Tax calculated at statutory tax rates applicable to
profits in the respective countries
Tax effects of:
Preferential income tax rates applicable to
subsidiaries
Tax losses for which no deferred income tax asset
was recognised
Additional deductible allowance for research and
development expenses (i)

32 BUSINESS COMBINATION

(a) Acquisition of Tianxinfu

On 1 August 2014, the Group acquired 100% equity interest in Tianxinfu at a cash consideration of RMB802,632,000.

35 CONTINGENCIES

  • (a) During the year ended 31 December 2015, one of the Group’s subsidiaries (the ‘‘Subsidiary’’) received a Demand for Response Notice (應訴通知書) and corresponding litigation materials from a court in Beijing, the PRC, in which the plaintiff filed a civil action against the Subsidiary and its former shareholders before it was being acquired by the Group (collectively, the ‘‘Defendants’’) due to a dispute arising from the Technology Development Agreement (技術開發合同). The plaintiff required the Defendants to be liable for the profit dividend and interest of RMB10 million and the litigation costs of the case of RMB81,800. According to a written civil ruling issued by the court in charge of the case, the plaintiff’s claim was previously rejected by the court. However, upon the plaintiff has appealed to the court of intellectual property, as of 7 June 2017 the litigation completed civil second instance and a retrial is required for the court in charge of the case. Despite

– I-69 –

ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT OF THE GROUP

APPENDIX I

such retrial, the directors of the Company and the Group’s attorney agent still considered that since the Subsidiary is not a principal party of the said Technology Development Agreement, it is expected that it is unlikely for the Subsidiary to undertake legal liability for the litigation. Therefore, the directors estimate that the case will not make any substantial impact to the Group, nor will result in any material loss.

  • (b) During the year ended 31 December 2016, a PRC intermediate people’s court issued a civil judgement (‘‘First Instance Judgement’’), pursuant to which one of the Group’s subsidiary (the ‘‘Subsidiary’’) shall undertake joint guarantee liability with another independent guarantor for a loan granted by a bank (the ‘‘Borrowing Bank’’ or the ‘‘Plaintiff’’) to the original independent borrower (the ‘‘Borrower’’) with principal and interest thereon totalling approximately RMB15 million, as the loan has been default in repayment. The directors of the Company and its appointed attorney agent analysed the case and considered that the Borrower is suspected of loan fraud and the Borrowing Bank may have grave fault in granting the loan to the Borrower. Accordingly, in August 2016, the Subsidiary instituted an appeal to a PRC superior people’s court on rejecting the First Instance Judgement.

On 10 July 2017, the litigation of second instance commenced and the Plaintiff submitted new evidence to support its ground to grant loan to the Borrower. Up to date of this interim condensed consolidated financial information, the second instance judgement is yet to finalise, the estimated joint guarantee liability including the original loan principal and accrued interest thereon amounted to approximately RMB20 million. The directors of the Company considered that the result of second instance judgement is uncertain and the Joint Guarantor is also obligated to the joint guarantee liability. Moreover, as the Group acquired the Subsidiary subsequent to its provision of the joint guarantee, the Group is entitled to make claims against the former shareholders of the Subsidiary if the joint guarantee obligation causes any losses to the Group. Therefore, despite any unfavourable judgement, the directors of the Company are of the view that the case will not make any substantial impact to the Group, nor will result in any material loss.

REPORT ON REVIEW OF CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF PW MEDTECH GROUP LIMITED

(incorporated in Cayman Islands with limited liability)

To the Board of Directors of PW Medtech Group Limited

Introduction

We have reviewed the historical financial information set out on pages II-3 to II-37 which comprise the consolidated balance sheets of PW Medtech Group Limited (the ‘‘Company’’) and its subsidiaries (together, the ‘‘Group’’) as of 30 June 2017, and the consolidated income statements, consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes in equity and consolidated statements of cash flows for each of the six months ended 30 June 2016 and 30 June 2017 (the ‘‘Relevant Periods’’) and explanatory notes (the ‘‘interim financial information’’). The interim financial information has been prepared solely for the purpose of inclusion in the circular to be issued by the Company in connection with the proposed subscription for shares of China Biologic Products Holdings, Inc., in consideration of the regenerative medical biomaterial business through the disposal of equity interests in Health Forward Holdings Limited in accordance with paragraph 14.68(2)(a)(i)(A) of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the ‘‘Listing Rules’’).

The directors of the Company are responsible for the presentation and preparation of the interim financial information of the Group in accordance with the basis of preparation set out in note 2 to the interim financial information and paragraph 14.68(2)(a)(i) of the Listing Rules. The directors are also responsible for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of interim financial information that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. The interim financial information does not contain sufficient information to constitute a complete set of financial statements as defined in Hong Kong Accounting Standard 1 ‘‘Presentation of Financial Statements’’ or an interim financial report as defined in Hong Kong Accounting Standard 34 ‘‘Interim Financial Reporting’’ issued by Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (‘‘HKICPA’’). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review and to report our conclusion solely to you, as a body, in accordance with our agreed terms of engagement and for no other purpose. We do not assume responsibility towards or accept liability to any other person for the contents of this report.

– II-1 –

REVIEW REPORT OF THE GROUP

APPENDIX II

Scope of 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 HKICPA and with reference to Practice Note 750 ‘‘Review of Financial Information under the Hong Kong Listing Rules for a Very Substantial Disposal’’ issued by HKICPA. A review of the interim financial information 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.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim financial information of the Group for the relevant periods is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the basis of preparation set out in note 2 to the interim financial information.

(Amendment) its associate or joint venture

The Group has already commenced an assessment of the impact of these new or revised standards which are relevant to the Group’s operation. According to the preliminary assessment made by the directors of the Company, no significant impact on the financial performance and positions of the Group is expected when adopting HKFRS 9 and HKFRS 15. The directors also do not expect the adoption of HKFRS 16 would result in significant impact on the Group’s financial performance and positions except for the recognition of the right of use assets and corresponding lease liabilities arising from accounting for operating leases by the Group as a lessee.

4 ESTIMATES

The preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial information requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

In preparing this condensed consolidated interim financial information, the significant judgements made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the Group’s annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2016.

5 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

5.1 Financial risk factors

The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including currency risk, fair value interest rate risk, cash flow interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.

The condensed consolidated interim financial information do not include all financial risk management information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the Group’s annual financial statements as at 31 December 2016.

There have been no changes in the risk management policies since the year end.

Trade receivables arose mainly from Infusion Set Business. Advanced payments were normally required for sales in Regenerative Medical Biomaterial Business. For the major customers of Infusion Set Business, the Group normally granted credit periods in a range from 180 days to 365 days or set certain limits. No interests are charged on the trade receivables. Provision for impairment of trade receivables has been made for estimated irrecoverable amounts from the sales of the goods. This provision has been determined by reference to past collection experience.

Below are the major tax jurisdictions that the Group operates during the period.

(a) Cayman Islands profits tax

The Company has not been subject to any taxation in the Cayman Islands.

(b) Hong Kong profits tax

Companies incorporated in Hong Kong are subject to the Hong Kong profits tax at a rate of 16.5%.

(c) The PRC Corporate Income Tax (the ‘‘CIT’’)

Except for Tianxinfu, Fert Technology and Xuzhou Yijia Medical Device Co.,Ltd. (‘‘Xuzhou Yijia’’), the CIT of the Group in respect of its operations in mainland China is calculated at the tax rate of 25% on the estimated assessable profits for each of the year, based on the existing legislation interpretation and practices in respect thereof.

Tianxinfu, Fert Technology and Xuzhou Yijia were qualified as ‘‘High and New Technology Enterprises’’ under the CIT Law. Therefore, they were entitled to a preferential income tax rate of 15% on their estimated assessable profits during the year. They will continue to enjoy the preferential tax rate in the subsequent periods, provided that they continue to be qualified as ‘‘High and New Technology Enterprises’’ during such periods.

REVIEW REPORT OF THE GROUP

APPENDIX II

(d) Withholding tax (‘‘WHT’’)

According to the applicable PRC tax regulations, dividends distributed by a company established in the PRC to a foreign investor with respect to profits derived after 1 January 2008 are generally subject to WHT. If a foreign investor incorporated in Hong Kong meets the conditions and requirements under the double taxation treaty arrangement entered into between the PRC and Hong Kong, the relevant WHT rate will be reduced from 10% to 5%.

The Group does not have any plan to require its PRC subsidiaries to distribute their retained earnings and intends to retain them to operate and expand the Group’s business in the PRC. Accordingly, no deferred income tax liability on WHT was accrued as of the end of the period.

24 CONTINGENCIES

  • (a) During the year ended 31 December 2015, one of the Group’s subsidiaries (the ‘‘Subsidiary’’) received a Demand for Response Notice (應訴通知書) and corresponding litigation materials from a court in Beijing, the PRC, in which the plaintiff filed a civil action against the Subsidiary and its former shareholders before it was being acquired by the Group (collectively, the ‘‘Defendants’’) due to a dispute arising from the Technology Development Agreement (技術開發合同). The plaintiff required the Defendants to be liable for the profit dividend and interest of RMB10 million and the litigation costs of the case of RMB81,800. According to a written civil ruling issued by the court in charge of the case, the plaintiff’s claim was previously rejected by the court. However, upon the plaintiff has appealed to the court of intellectual property, as of 7 June 2017 the litigation completed civil second instance and a retrial is required for the court in charge of the case. Despite such retrial, the directors of the Company and the Group’s attorney agent still considered that since the Subsidiary is not a principal party of the said Technology Development Agreement, it is expected that it is unlikely for the Subsidiary to undertake legal liability for the litigation. Therefore, the directors estimate that the case will not make any substantial impact to the Group, nor will result in any material loss.

  • (b) During the year ended 31 December 2016, a PRC intermediate people’s court issued a civil judgement (‘‘First Instance Judgement’’), pursuant to which one of the Subsidiary shall undertake joint guarantee liability with another independent guarantor for a loan granted by a bank (the ‘‘Borrowing Bank’’ or the ‘‘Plaintiff’’) to the original independent borrower (the ‘‘Borrower’’) with principal and interest thereon totalling approximately RMB15 million, as the loan has been default in repayment. The directors of the Company and its appointed attorney agent analysed the case and considered that the Borrower is suspected of loan fraud and the Borrowing Bank may have grave fault in granting the loan to the Borrower. Accordingly, in August 2016, the Subsidiary instituted an appeal to a PRC superior people’s court on rejecting the First Instance Judgement.

On 10 July 2017, the litigation of second instance commenced and the Plaintiff submitted new evidence to support its ground to grant loan to the Borrower. Up to date of this interim condensed consolidated financial information, the second instance judgement is yet to finalise, the estimated joint guarantee liability including the original loan principal and accrued interest thereon amounted to approximately RMB20 million. The directors of the Company considered that the result of second instance judgement is uncertain and the Joint Guarantor is also obligated to the joint guarantee liability. Furthermore, as the Group acquired the Subsidiary subsequent to its provision of the joint guarantee, the Group is entitled to make claims against the former shareholders of the Subsidiary if the joint guarantee obligation causes any losses to the Group. Therefore, despite any unfavourable judgement, the directors of the Company are of the view that the case will not make any substantial impact to the Group, nor will result in any material loss.

APPENDIX III ADDITIONAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

1. INDEBTEDNESS STATEMENT

As at the close of business on September 30, 2017, being the latest practicable date for the purpose of this indebtedness statement, the Group did not have any debt securities issued and outstanding or agreed to be issued, bank overdrafts, liabilities under acceptance (other than normal trade bills), acceptance credits, hire purchase commitments, mortgages, charges, guarantees of other material contingent liabilities.

2. STATEMENT OF SUFFICIENCY OF WORKING CAPITAL

Taking into account the expected financial resources available to the Group including the internally generated funds, the Directors are of the opinion that, following the completion of the Disposal and the Subscription, the Group has sufficient working capital for its present requirements, that is for at least the next 12 months from the date of this circular.

3. FINANCIAL EFFECTS OF THE TRANSACTION ON THE GROUP

Immediately following the Closing, the Company is expected to become the single largest shareholder of CBPO, with the CBPO Shares representing approximately 16.66% of the enlarged issued share capital of CBPO; Health Forward and Tianxinfu will cease to be subsidiaries of the Company. Therefore, the results, assets and liabilities of the Disposal Group will no longer be consolidated into the financial statements of the Company. Instead, the results, assets and liabilities of the Disposal Group will be consolidated into the financial statements of CBPO.

Immediately following the Closing, CBPO will not become a subsidiary of the Company and its results will not be consolidated in the financial statements of the Company. The CBPO Shares held by the Company would be treated as an investment in an associate and accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method of accounting, the Company’s share of the CBPO’s results of operations would be included in the Company’s consolidated income statement. Under the equity method of accounting, the Company’s share of the CBPO’s financial position, together with any intangible assets and goodwill identified in the purchasing accounting at acquisition date, subject to amortisation if applicable, would be included in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

After completion of the Subscription, the Company is expected to rely on (i) its inspection rights under the company laws of the Cayman Islands where CBPO was incorporated and its information rights in accordance with CBPO’s articles of association and relevant U.S. securities laws and regulations; and (ii) the Company’s right under the Investor Rights Agreement to request CBPO to furnish or make available its books and records to comply with applicable securities laws and stock exchange rules for the preparation of the Group’s consolidated financial results for so long as the investment by the Company in CBPO is treated as an investment in associate and accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, the Company expects that it would be able to prepare its consolidated financial results with the investment by the Company in CBPO treated as an investment in associate and accounted for using the equity method of accounting upon completion of the Subscription.

– III-1 –

APPENDIX III ADDITIONAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

Appendix V to this circular sets out certain unaudited pro forma financial information of the New Group, which illustrates the financial effects of the Subscription and Disposal on the assets and liabilities of the Group assuming Closing had taken place on June 30, 2017, and the financial effects of the Subscription and Disposal on the performance results of the Group for the year ended December 31, 2016 assuming Closing had taken place on 1 January 2016.

As set out in Appendix V to this circular, as a result of the Subscription and Disposal:

  • (i) the total assets of the Group would increase from approximately RMB3,077.05 million to approximately RMB4,817.61 million for the New Group;

  • (ii) the total liabilities of the Group would decrease from approximately RMB156.20 million to approximately RMB70.70 million for the New Group;

  • (iii) the revenue of the Group would decrease from approximately RMB566.82 million to approximately RMB319.58 million for the New Group; and

  • (iv) the profit before income tax would increase from approximately RMB283.23 million to approximately RMB2,875.18 million, including the other gains amounted approximately RMB2,675.80 million arising from the Subscription and Disposal, which represents the difference between the consideration and the carrying amount of net asset value of the Disposal Group assuming the Closing had taken place on January 1, 2016. The profit for the year of the Group would increase from approximately RMB193.45 million to approximately RMB2,543.30 million for the New Group.

The Directors are of the view that the Subscription and Disposal is not expected to have any material adverse impact on the financial position of the Group. As set out in ‘‘Working Capital’’ in Appendix III to this circular, the Directors are of the opinion that the New Group will have sufficient working capital for its present requirements for at least the next 12 months from the date of this circular.

Shareholders should note that the earnings contribution from CBPO after Closing will depend on the future performance of CBPO, and the actual effect of the Transaction on the assets and liabilities of the Group will depend on the financial position of CBPO as of the date of Closing, which cannot be quantified as of the Latest Practicable Date. The unaudited proforma financial information of the New Group set out in Appendix V to this circular has been prepared for illustrative purposes only and because of its hypothetical nature, it may not give a true picture of the financial position of the Group and the New Group at any future date.

– III-2 –

APPENDIX III ADDITIONAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

4. FINANCIAL AND TRADING PROSPECTS OF THE NEW GROUP

(a) Investment in CBPO

By the acquisition of the CBPO Shares, the Company expands into a new niche market in medical industry in the PRC with fast-growing, high-margin and high-potential opportunities, which is in line with the Company’s long-term strategies. CBPO has an established business with good track record in developing its plasma business. It is a leading producer of plasma products in the PRC with strong growth potential. It is among the top three producers of plasma products in the PRC in terms of 2016 sales, according to CBPO’s 2016 annual report.

Tianxinfu is the largest manufacturer of artificial dura mater in the PRC. As both Tianxinfu and CBPO are industry leaders in the biomaterial industry in the PRC with state of art technology and know-how, the Company believes that a smooth business combination could create a sharing platform for both Tianxinfu and CBPO to consolidate their leading market positions and realize rapid growth. In particular, Tianxinfu would be able to strengthen its core business by leveraging CBPO’s existing market presence to cross-sell and offer bundle pricing opportunities, and expand its customer bases by growing into CBPO’s sales channels, hospitals and departments. At the same time, the combined scale of Tianxinfu and CBPO could also reduce costs, optimize spending, broaden market exposure and improve bargaining power with distributors, customers and suppliers.

The transactions under the Share Exchange Agreement are valued at a total amount of approximately US$513.45 million (equivalent to approximately RMB3.38 billion), which provides the Shareholders with an attractive valuation of the Disposal Group and, compared with the proposed A share listing of Tianxinfu, is expected to be consummated with more certainty and expedited timetable. The Company believes that the combination of Tianxinfu with CBPO would enhance the Company’s overall valuation and create values for the Company and its shareholders. Accordingly, notwithstanding that the CBPO Shares held by the Company would only be treated as an investment in an associate of the Company at the outset, as a long-term strategic partner of CBPO and with the listing status on the Stock Exchange also with access to the U.S. capital market, the Company is expected to be exposed to diversified coverage and enhance its corporate image in two international financial centers, which could create more potentials and possibilities for the Company’s future development.

(b) Infusion Set Business

The infusion set business includes producing precision filter infusion sets and nonpolyvinyl-chloride-based infusion sets. Throughout the years, the ‘‘Fert (伏爾特)’’ brand under the Group has been focusing on providing a safer and more efficient solution for infusion therapy, and has been maintaining the second largest market share in the domestic advanced infusion sets market and ranking number one in Beijing market for years.

– III-3 –

APPENDIX III ADDITIONAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

In July 2016, the Group has obtained the product registration certificate for disposable intravenous cannula (留置針). In the future, the Group will keep focusing on infusion therapy and provide a more comprehensive product portfolio for infusion therapy, thus to make contributions to the safety and efficiency of China’s medical care. Furthermore, as a leader in the infusion set business of China, with the benefits driven by the favorable government policy and market potential, the Group will take advantage of the great favorable economic and industrial environments to introduce and nurture high-quality talents and improve production technologies, with a view to maintaining the competitive edges of its infusion sets products in the market.

(c) Other Businesses

The other businesses of the Group comprised the Group’s other operations not classified as the regenerative medical biomaterial business or the infusion set business, mainly including the Group’s beauty products in the brand name of ‘‘LE SEUL (諾頌)’’ newly launched in 2016.

In 2017, the Group further promoted its medical beauty mask brand ‘‘LE SEUL’’ and in a short term, achieved a milestone success. In the first half of 2017, the number of the varieties of our mask products increased to eight, covering the field of basic skincare needs and medium to high-end skincare needs. The Group will continue to uphold the rigorous attitude to create medical cosmetic skincare products trusted by consumers, and the quality of such mask products is superior to that of similar products available in the domestic market.

5. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE GROUP

The management discussion and analysis of the Group for (i) the period ended June 30, 2017 is disclosed in the interim report of the Company; and (ii) the three years ended December 31, 2014, 2015 and 2016 is disclosed in the annual reports of the Company, all of which have been published on the website of the Stock Exchange (www. hkexnews.hk) and the Company (www.pwmedtech.com).

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE CBPO GROUP

APPENDIX IV

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012

NOTE 1 — DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT CONCENTRATIONS AND RISKS

China Biologic Products, Inc. (‘‘CBP’’) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the ‘‘Company’’), through its subsidiaries in the People’s Republic of China (the ‘‘PRC’’), is a biopharmaceutical company that is principally engaged in the research, development, manufacturing and sales of plasma-based pharmaceutical products in the PRC. The PRC subsidiaries own and operate plasma stations that purchase and collect plasma from individual donors. The plasma is processed into finished goods after passing through a series of fractionating processes. All of the Company’s plasma products are prescription medicines that require government approval before the products are sold to customers. The Company primarily sells its products to hospitals and inoculation centers directly or through distributors in the PRC.

Cash Concentration

The Company maintains cash balances at financial institutions which, from time to time, may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits for its bank accounts located in the United States. Cash balances maintained at financial institutions or state-owned banks in the PRC are not covered by insurance. Total cash and cash equivalents at banks and restricted cash and cash deposits as of December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 amounted to $184,186,306 and $180,858,848, respectively, of which $86,744 and $679,022 are insured, respectively. The Company has not experienced any losses in uninsured bank deposits and does not believe that it is exposed to any significant risks on cash held in bank accounts.

Sales Concentration

The Company’s two major products are human albumin and human immunoglobulin for intravenous injection (‘‘IVIG’’). Human albumin accounted for 39.3%, 44.1% and 44.6% of the total sales for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. IVIG accounted for 40.4%, 38.0% and 39.0% of the total sales for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. If the market demands for human albumin and IVIG cannot be sustained in the future or the price of human albumin and IVIG decreases, the Company’s operating results could be adversely affected.

Substantially all of the Company’s customers are located in the PRC. There were no customers that individually comprised 10% or more of sales during the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012. No individual customer represented 10% or more of trade receivables as at December 31, 2014 and 2013. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and, generally, requires no collateral from its customers.

Purchase Concentration

There were no suppliers that comprised 10% or more of the total purchases during the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. There was one vendor that represented more than 10% of accounts payables as at December 31, 2014. There were no vendors that represented more than 10% of accounts payables as at December 31, 2013.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (‘‘GAAP’’), and include the financial statements of the Company and its majority owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. The Company has no involvement with variable interest entities. The Company accounts for investments over which it has significant influence but not a controlling financial interest using the equity method of accounting.

– IV-8 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE CBPO GROUP

APPENDIX IV

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the useful lives of fixed assets; the allowance for doubtful accounts; the fair value determinations of financial and equity instruments and the valuation of share-based compensation, assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination, deferred tax assets and inventories; the recoverability of land use right and property, plant and equipment; and reserves for income tax uncertainties and other contingencies. The current economic environment has increased the degree of uncertainty inherent in those estimates and assumptions.

Foreign Currency Translation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company are reported in US dollar. The financial position and results of operations of the Company’s subsidiaries in the PRC are measured using the Renminbi, which is the local and functional currency of these entities. Assets and liabilities of the subsidiaries are translated at the prevailing exchange rate in effect at each period end. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average rate of exchange during the period. Translation adjustments are included in other comprehensive income.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue represents the invoiced value of products sold, net of value added taxes (VAT).

Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery of the product has occurred and the customer takes ownership and assumes risk of loss, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection of the relevant receivable is probable. The Company mainly sells human albumin and human immunoglobulin to hospitals, inoculation centers and pharmaceutical distributors. For all sales, the Company requires a signed contract or purchase order, which specify pricing, quantity and product specifications. Delivery of the product occurs when the customer receives the product, which is when the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred. Delivery is evidenced by signed customer acknowledgement. The Company’s sales agreements do not provide the customer the right of return, unless the product is defective in which case the Company allows for an exchange of product or return. For the periods presented, defective product returns were inconsequential.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:

  • . Level 1 Inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets accessible to the entity at the measurement date.

  • . Level 2 Inputs: Other than quoted prices included in Level 1, inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

– IV-9 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE CBPO GROUP

APPENDIX IV

  • . Level 3 Inputs: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.

The fair value measurement level of an asset or liability within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

See Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and demand deposits. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three-month or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2014 and 2013 include $38,489,045 and $74,352,540 of certificates of deposit with an initial term of three months or less.

As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company maintained cash and cash equivalents at banks in the following locations:

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. Amounts collected on trade accounts receivable are included in net cash provided by operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses inherent in its accounts receivable portfolio. In establishing the required allowance, management considers historical losses, the customers’ financial condition, the amount of accounts receivables in dispute, the accounts receivables aging and the customers’ payment patterns. The Company reviews its allowance for doubtful accounts monthly. Past due balances are reviewed individually for collectability. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The Company does not have any off-balance-sheet credit exposure related to its customers.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the weighted average method. Cost of work in progress and finished goods comprise direct materials, direct production costs and an allocation of production overheads based on normal operating capacity. Adjustments are recorded to write down the carrying amount of any obsolete and excess inventory to its estimated net realizable value based on historical and forecasted demand.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.

– IV-10 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE CBPO GROUP

APPENDIX IV

Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Estimated useful lives of the assets are as follows:

Buildings 30 years
Machinery and equipment 10 years
Furniture, fixtures, office equipment and vehicles 5–10 years

Equity Method Investment

Investment in an investee in which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence, but does not have a controlling interest is accounted for using the equity method. Significant influence is generally presumed to exist when the Company has an ownership interest in the voting stock between 20% and 50%, and other factors, such as representation on the board of directors and participation in policy-making processes, are considered in determining whether the equity method of accounting is appropriate. Under the equity method of accounting, the Company’s share of the investee’s results of operations is included in other income (expenses) in the Company’s consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Deferred taxes are provided for the difference between the book and tax basis of the investment. The Company recognizes a loss if it is determined that other than temporary decline in the value of the investment exists. The process of assessing and determining whether an impairment on a particular equity investment is other than temporary requires a significant amount of judgment. To determine whether an impairment is other-than-temporary, management considers whether the Company has the ability and intent to hold the investment until recovery and whether evidence indicating the carrying value of the investment is recoverable outweighs evidence to the contrary. No impairment loss was recognized by the Company for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012.

Government Grants

Government grants are recognized when there is reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with the conditions attaching to them and the grants will be received. Grants that compensate research and development expenses are recognized as a reduction to the related research and development expenses. Grants that compensate the Company for the cost of property, plant and equipment and land use rights are recognized as deferred income and are recognized over the useful life of the asset by way of other income.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, government grants of RMB12,963,600 (approximately $2,111,770), have been recognized as a reduction of research and development expenses.

These grants are amortized as the related assets are depreciated. The grants amortized amounted to $224,191 and nil for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Land Use Rights

Land use rights represent the exclusive right to occupy and use a piece of land in the PRC for a specified contractual term. Land use rights are carried at cost, less accumulated amortization.

Product Liability

The Company’s products are covered by two separate product liability insurances each with coverages of approximately $3,258,000 (or RMB20,000,000) for the products sold by Shandong Taibang Biological Products Co., Ltd. (‘‘Shandong Taibang’’) and Guizhou Taibang Biological Products Co., Ltd. (‘‘Guizhou Taibang’’), respectively. There were no product liability claims as of December 31, 2014.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the amount of deferred tax assets if it is considered more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company records interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in general and administrative expenses.

Share-based Payment

The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award and recognizes the cost over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, which generally is the vesting period.

Long-lived Assets

Long-lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment, and purchased intangible asset subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If circumstances require a long-lived asset or asset group be tested for possible impairment, the Company first compares undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by that asset or asset group to its carrying value. If the carrying value of the long-lived asset or asset group is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, an impairment is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds its fair value. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third-party independent appraisals, as considered necessary.

Net Income per Share

Basic net income per share of common stock is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the year using the two-class method. Under the two-class method, net income is allocated between common stock and other participating securities based on their participating rights in undistributed earnings. The Company’s nonvested shares were considered participating securities since the holders of these securities participate in dividends on the same basis as common stockholders. Diluted net income per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders as adjusted for the effect of dilutive common stock equivalent, if any, by the weighted average number of common stock and dilutive common stock equivalent outstanding during the year. Potential dilutive securities are not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share if the impact is anti-dilutive.

NOTE 6 — OTHER RECEIVABLES IN RESPECT OF AN EMPLOYEE HOUSING DEVELOPMENT PROJECT

In 2009, 107 employees, or the Employee-participants, of Shandong Taibang entered into agreements, or the Housing Project Agreements, with a real estate developer regarding a housing development project, pursuant to which the developer agreed to develop and deliver residential units to the Employee-participants by the end of 2011 and the Employee-participants paid the developer deposits equal to 80% of the purchase prices of the residential units. To assist with their deposit payment, Shandong Taibang entered into separate agreements, or the Financial Assistance Agreements, with the Employee-participants and provided them with advances of up to 50% of the purchase prices of the residential units. These advances were to be repaid by deductions from the Employee-participants’ salaries. In addition, Shandong Taibang also entered into a purchase agreement with the developer to purchase additional units in the development project and made a deposit of RMB3,823,200 (approximately $622,799).

In October 2008, Shandong Taibang entered into an equity purchase agreement with one of the equity owners of Huitian (‘‘Seller’’) to acquire 35% equity interest in Huitian. In connection with this transaction, in October 2008, Taibang Biological Limited (‘‘Taibang Biological’’) entered into an entrust agreement (the ‘‘Entrust Agreement’’) with Shandong Taibang and the noncontrolling interest holder of Shandong Taibang, pursuant to which, Taibang Biological would pay the cash consideration, including interest, of $6,502,901 (or RMB44,327,887) to the Seller, and would bear the risks and benefits as a 35% equity owner in Huitian. In addition, Taibang Biological would pay Shandong Taibang RMB120,000 (approximately $19,548) per year as compensation for the administrative costs of Shandong Taibang’s holding of the 35% equity interest in Huitian on behalf of Taibang Biological. Such amount paid and received is eliminated upon consolidation. Taibang Biological agreed to indemnify the noncontrolling interest holder of Shandong Taibang for any loss arising from the Entrust Agreement and has pledged the Company’s equity interest in Shandong Taibang as collateral against such loss.

The excess of carrying amount over the Company’s share of net assets of equity method investees is $1,333,075 and $2,076,329 at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, which comprises fair value adjustments for property, plant and equipment and land use right of nil and $736,707 at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and goodwill of $1,333,075 and $1,339,622 at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The fair value adjustments are amortized over the remaining useful lives of related assets. The equity method goodwill is not amortized; however, the investment is reviewed for impairment.

Gross deferred tax assets
Less: valuation allowance
Net deferred tax assets
Deferred tax liabilities arising from:
— Intangible assets

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible and tax loss carryforwards are utilized. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities (including the impact of available carryforwards periods), projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.

The deferred tax assets of $10,401,398 for tax loss carry forwards as of December 31, 2014, of which $6,051,100 and $4,350,298 relate to tax loss carryforwards of certain PRC subsidiaries and CBP, respectively. For PRC income tax purposes, certain of the Company’s PRC subsidiaries had tax loss carryforwards of $24,204,400, of which $1,147,907, $5,195,417, $7,144,957, $5,342,603 and $5,373,516 would expire by 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively, if unused. For United States federal income tax purposes, CBP had tax loss carryforwards of approximately $12,794,994, of which $1,268,307, $614,982, $1,113,597, $1,405,718, $2,350,326, $3,382,154, $978,837, $1,296,319 and $384,754 would expire by 2026, 2027, 2028, 2029, 2030, 2031, 2032, 2033 and 2034, respectively, if unused. In view of their cumulative losses positions, management determined it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets of these PRC subsidiaries will not be realized, and therefore full valuation allowances of $6,051,100 and $4,730,841 were provided as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. For deferred tax assets of CBP, management determined it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets of CBP will not be realized, and therefore valuation allowances of $610,039 and $2,827,749 were provided as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Management believes it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of the deferred tax assets, net of the valuation allowances, as of December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

According to the prevailing PRC income tax law and relevant regulations, dividends relating to earnings accumulated beginning on January 1, 2008 that are received by non-PRC-resident enterprises from PRC-resident enterprises are subject to withholding tax at 10%, unless reduced by tax treaties or similar arrangement. Dividends relating to undistributed earnings generated prior to January 1, 2008 are exempt from such withholding tax. Further, dividends received by the Company from its overseas subsidiaries are subject to the U.S. federal income tax at 34%, less any qualified foreign tax credits. Based on the dividend policy the Company has provided the deferred tax liabilities of $7,351,023 on undistributed earnings of $74 million, approximately 50% of Shandong Taibang’s total undistributed earnings at December 31, 2014. Due to the Company’s plan and intention of reinvesting its earnings in its PRC business, the Company has not provided for the related deferred tax liabilities on the remaining undistributed earnings of the PRC subsidiaries totaling $161 million as of December 31, 2014.

As of January 1, 2012 and for each of the years ended December 31, 2012, 2013 and 2014, the Company and its subsidiaries did not have any unrecognized tax benefits, and therefore no interest or penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits were accrued. The Company does not expect that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits will change significantly within the next 12 months.

The Company and each of its PRC subsidiaries file income tax returns in the United States and the PRC, respectively. The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax examination by tax authorities for tax years beginning in 2007. According to the PRC Tax Administration and Collection Law, the statute of limitations is three years if the underpayment of taxes is due to computational errors made by the taxpayer or the withholding agent. The statute of limitations is extended to five years under special circumstances where the underpayment of taxes is more than RMB100,000 (approximately $16,290). In the case of transfer pricing issues, the statute of limitations is ten years. There is no statute of limitations in the case of tax evasion. The PRC tax returns for the Company’s PRC subsidiaries are open to examination by the PRC tax authorities for the tax years beginning in 2009.

NOTE 14 — OPTIONS AND NONVESTED SHARES

NOTE 17 — FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Management used the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of financial instruments at the relevant balance sheet dates:

  • . Short-term financial instruments (including cash and cash equivalents, time deposit, restricted cash deposits, accounts receivable, other receivables, short-term bank loans including current portion of long-term bank loans, accounts payable, other payables and accrued expenses, and amount due to related parties) — The carrying amounts of the short-term financial instruments approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.

  • . Restricted cash and cash deposits, excluding current portion — The carrying amounts of the restricted cash and cash deposit approximate their fair value. The fair value is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis based on the Company’s incremental borrowing rates for similar borrowing.

  • . Long-term bank loan excluding current portion- fair value is based on the amount of future cash flows associated with the long-term bank loan discounted at the Company’s current borrowing rate for similar debt instruments of comparable terms. The carrying value of the long-term bank loan approximate its fair value as the long-term bank loan carry variable interest rate which approximate rate currently offered by the Company’s bankers for similar debt instruments of comparable maturities.

Dispute with Jie’an over Raising Additional Capital in Guizhou Taibang

In May 2007, a 91% majority of Guizhou Taibang’s shareholders approved a plan to raise additional capital from qualified strategic investors through the issuance of an additional 20,000,000 shares of Guizhou Taibang. The plan required all existing Guizhou Taibang shareholders to waive their rights of first refusal to subscribe for the additional shares. The remaining 9% minority shareholder of Guizhou Taibang’s shares, Guizhou Jie’an Company, or Jie’an, did not support the plan and did not waive its right of first refusal. In May 2007, Guizhou Taibang signed an Equity Purchase Agreement with certain alleged strategic investors (who concealed their background), pursuant to which such investors agreed to invest an aggregate of RMB50,960,000 (approximately $8,301,384) in exchange for 21.4% of Guizhou Taibang’s equity interests. Such Equity Purchase Agreement was not approved or ratified by over two-thirds supermajority of Guizhou Taibang’s shareholders, which approval or ratification is required under the PRC Company Law. At the same time, as an existing shareholder, Jie’an also subscribed for 1,800,000 shares, representing its pro rata share of the 20,000,000 shares being offered. In total, Guizhou Taibang received RMB50,960,000 (approximately $8,301,384) from the investors and RMB6,480,000 (approximately $1,055,592) from Jie’an.

In June 2007, Jie’an brought a lawsuit against Guizhou Taibang, alleging that it had a right to acquire the 18,200,000 shares offered to the investors under the Equity Purchase Agreement. The trial court denied Jie’an’s request, and the PRC Supreme Court ultimately sustained the original ruling in May 2009 and denied the rights of first refusal of Jie’an over the 18,200,000 shares.

– IV-25 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE CBPO GROUP

APPENDIX IV

During the second quarter of 2010, Jie’an requested that Guizhou Taibang register its 1.8 million shares of additional capital injection with the local AIC. Guizhou Taibang’s board of directors withheld its required ratification of Jie’an’s request, pending the outcome of the ongoing litigation. In March 2012, Jie’an brought another lawsuit against Guizhou Taibang for refusing to register the shares. In July 2013, the trial court dismissed the lawsuit for lack of jurisdiction. Jie’an did not appeal the dismissal.

In December 2013, Jie’an brought a third lawsuit against Guizhou Taibang, requesting Guizhou Taibang to register 1.8 million shares under its name with the local AIC. In July 2014, the trial court denied Jie’an’s request to register such shares. Despite the denial of Jie’an’s share registration request, the trial court, however, in its ruling, ordered Guizhou Taibang to pay accumulated dividends of RMB13,809,197 (approximately $2,249,518) associated with these shares and the related interest expenses to Jie’an. Guizhou Taibang and Jie’an subsequently filed a cross-appeal. In December 2014, the appellate court ruled in favor of Jie’an supporting its request to register 1.8 million shares and ordered Guizhou Taibang to pay Jie’an its share of accumulated dividends of RMB18,339,227 (approximately $2,987,460) associated with these shares plus the related interest expenses to Jie’an. In February 2015, Guizhou Taibang paid RMB18,000,000 (approximately $2,932,200) to the trial court to be held in escrow pending further appeal of this case. Guizhou Taibang was in the process of preparing its appeal as of the date of this report.

In November 2013, Guizhou Taibang held a shareholders meeting and the shareholders passed resolutions, or the November 2013 Resolutions, that, inter alia, (i) determined that it was no longer necessary for Guizhou Taibang to obtain additional capital from investors; (ii) rejected Jie’an’s request that Jie’an subscribe for additional shares of Guizhou Taibang alone and one or more other shareholders reduce their shareholding in Guizhou Taibang; and (iii) approved the issuance of a total of 20,000,000 new shares to all existing shareholders on a pro rata basis. Jie’an subsequently filed a fourth lawsuit against Guizhou Taibang in December 2013, requesting that the court declare the November 2013 Resolutions void. Both the trial court and the appellate court denied Jie’an’s request.

In March 2014, Guizhou Taibang held another shareholders meeting and the shareholders passed resolutions, or the March 2014 Resolutions, that, inter alia, re-calculated the ownership percentage in Guizhou Taibang based on the November 2013 Resolutions and the additional capital injections from existing shareholders. Guizhou Taibang subsequently updated the registration with the local AIC regarding the additional capital injections in August 2014. In September 2014, Jie’an and another minority shareholder of Guizhou Taibang filed a lawsuit against Guizhou Taibang, requesting that the court declare both the November 2013 Resolutions and the March 2014 Resolutions void and instruct Guizhou Taibang to withdraw the AIC registration. In November 2014, the trial court suspended this case pending the final outcome of the third lawsuit filed by Jie’an.

If the pending cases with Jie’an are ultimately ruled in Jie’an’s favor, the ownership interest in Guizhou Taibang may be diluted to 71% and Jie’an may be entitled to receive accumulated dividends of RMB18,339,227 (approximately $2,987,460) and the related interest expenses (being its claimed share of Guizhou Taibang’s accumulated dividend distributions associated with the 1.8 million shares and the accrued interest from the date when Jie’an’s capital contribution was deemed effective till December 31, 2014) from Guizhou Taibang. As of December 31, 2014, the Company had maintained, on its balance sheet, payables to Jie’an in the amounts of RMB5,040,000 (approximately $821,016) as received funds in respect of the 1.8 million shares in dispute, RMB1,440,000 (approximately $234,576) for the over-paid subscription price paid by Jie’an and RMB3,335,993 (approximately $543,433) for the accrued interest. As these cases are closely interlinked to the outcome of the disputes with certain individual investor described below, based on its PRC litigation counsel’s assessment, the Company does not expect Jie’an to prevail.

Dispute with Certain Investors over Raising Additional Capital in Guizhou Taibang

In part due to the invalidity of the Equity Purchase Agreement with certain alleged strategic investors in May 2007, which was never approved or ratified by Guizhou Taibang’s shareholders, such investors’ equity ownership in Guizhou Taibang and the related increase in registered capital of Guizhou Taibang have never been registered with the local AIC. In January 2010, one individual among such investors brought a lawsuit against Guizhou Taibang requesting to register his 14.35% ownership interest in Guizhou Taibang with the local AIC and seeking the distribution of his share of Guizhou Taibang’s dividends declared since 2007.

– IV-26 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE CBPO GROUP

APPENDIX IV

In October 2010, the trial court denied such individual investor’s right as shareholders of Guizhou Taibang and his entitlement to share the dividends, which ruling was reaffirmed after a re-trial by the same trial court in December 2012. After such ruling, Guizhou Taibang attempted to return the originally received fund of RMB34,160,000 to such investor by wiring the fund back to his bank account but was unable to do so due to the closure of his bank account. Another investor, however, accepted the returned fund of RMB11,200,000 (approximately $1,824,480) from Guizhou Taibang in November 2010. In 2013, the same individual investor appealed the case to the PRC Supreme Court, which also denied his claims for shareholder status in Guizhou Taibang and the related dividend distribution and accrued interest in September 2013. Such investor subsequently attempted to seek for a re-trial by the PRC Supreme Court, which request was denied by the PRC Supreme Court in January 2014. He then applied to the PRC Supreme Procuratorate to request for a review of the PRC Supreme Court’s decision and seek an appeal by the PRC Supreme Procuratorate to the PRC Supreme Court for an ultimate re-trial on his behalf. The PRC Supreme Procuratorate accepted his application in December 2014 and, with the assistance of its PRC litigation counsel, the Company is in the process of preparing its response to such application. The PRC Supreme Procuratorate will consider the Company’s response in deciding whether to appeal to the PRC Supreme Court on behalf of such investor, which decision process may take several months. The PRC Supreme Procuratorate had not scheduled a hearing as of the date of this report.

Based on its PRC litigation counsel’s assessment, the Company does not expect such individual investor to prevail in this pending re-trial application process, but the Company cannot assure that the PRC Supreme Procuratorate will decide not to appeal for re-trial or the final outcome of such ultimate re-trial by the PRC Supreme Court (if the PRC Supreme Procuratorate decides to appeal for re-trial) will be in favor of the Company. In case the PRC Supreme Procuratorate decides to appeal for re-trial on behalf of such investor and such ultimate re-trial by the PRC Supreme Court is ruled in such investor’s favor, the ownership interest in Guizhou Taibang may be diluted to 66.29% and such investor may be entitled to receive his claimed share of accumulated dividends and the accrued interests from Guizhou Taibang although he has not specified the amount of the claimed damages in his appeal to the PRC Supreme Court or the re-trial application to the PRC Supreme Procuratorate. As of December 31, 2014, Guizhou Taibang had maintained, on its balance sheet, payables to the investors of RMB34,160,000 (approximately $5,564,664) as originally received funds from such individual investor in respect of the shares in dispute, RMB15,850,231 (approximately $2,582,003) for the interest expenses, and RMB341,600 (approximately $55,647) for the 1% penalty imposed by the Equity Purchase Agreement for any breach in the event that Guizhou Taibang is required to return the original investment amount to such investor.

  • (1) During the year ended December 31, 2011, Guizhou Taibang signed an agency contract with Guizhou Eakan Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (‘‘Guizhou Eakan’’), one of the former Guizhou Taibang’s noncontrolling interest shareholders (see note 24), pursuant to which Guizhou Taibang would pay commission to Guizhou Eakan for the promotion of the product of Placenta Polypeptide. The agency contract expired on May 31, 2014 and Guizhou Eakan no longer provided the promotion services thereafter. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, Guizhou Taibang accrued commission payable of $8,145 and $351,955 for service rendered by Guizhou Eakan. The commission expense for service rendered by Guizhou Eakan amounted to $2,249,716, $3,620,335, and $3,591,836 for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. In August 2014, the Company acquired the equity interest owned by Guizhou Eakan in Guizhou Taibang and Guizhou Eakan was no longer a related party of the Company at December 31, 2014.

  • (2) Guizhou Taibang has payables to Guizhou Eakan Investing Corp., amounting to approximately $2,371,824 and $2,383,472 as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Guizhou Eakan Investing Corp. is an affiliate of Guizhou Eakan. The Company borrowed this interest free advance for working capital purpose for Guizhou Taibang. The balance is due on demand. In August 2014, the Company acquired the equity interest owned by Guizhou Eakan in Guizhou Taibang and Guizhou Eakan Investing Corp. was no longer a related party of the Company at December 31, 2014.

  • (3) In December 2013, Guizhou Taibang received a contribution of RMB17,898,000 (approximately $2,929,903) from Guizhou Eakan, pending for the registration with the local AIC. In August 2014, the Company acquired the equity interest owned by Guizhou Eakan in Guizhou Taibang and made the registration accordingly.

  • (4) Guizhou Taibang has payables to Jie’an, a noncontrolling interest shareholder of Guizhou Taibang, amounting to approximately $1,599,025 and $1,541,640 as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. In 2007, Guizhou Taibang received additional contributions from Jie’an of RMB6,480,000 (approximately $1,055,592) to subscribe for 1,800,000 shares in Guizhou Taibang. However, due to a legal dispute among shareholders over raising additional capital as discussed in the legal proceeding section (see Note 19), the contribution is subject to be returned to Jie’an. Following the Company’s acquisition of the equity interest owned by Guizhou Eakan in Guizhou Taibang, Jie’an was not able to influence significantly the operation of Guizhou Taibang. As a result, Jie’an was no longer regarded as a related party at December 31, 2014.

NOTE 23 — FOLLOW-ON OFFERING OF COMMON STOCK

On July 2, 2014, the Company completed a follow-on offering of 1,782,500 shares of common stock at a price of $38.00 per share, less the underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses. In this July 2014 follow-on offering, the Company sold 920,000 shares (including 120,000 shares sold pursuant to the exercise by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares from the Company) and a selling stockholder sold 862,500 shares (including 112,500 shares sold pursuant to the exercise by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares from such selling stockholder). The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $33.2 million from this offering, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares by the selling stockholder.

NOTE 24 — ACQUISITION OF ADDITIONAL EQUITY INTEREST IN GUIZHOU TAIBANG

On August 25, 2014, Guiyang Dalin Biotechnology (‘‘Guiyang Dalin’’), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an agreement to acquire an additional 19.84% equity interest in Guizhou Taibang from Guizhou Eakan, a noncontrolling interest shareholder of Guizhou Taibang. The total consideration of the transaction was RMB535 million (approximately $86.8 million). The Company completed the acquisition on September 4, 2014 and increased its equity interest in Guizhou Taibang to 76.23%.

NOTE 25 — SUBSEQUENT EVENT

Stockholder Rights Plan

On January 8, 2015, the Board of Directors (the ‘‘Board’’) adopted a stockholder rights plan (the ‘‘Rights Agreement’’). Pursuant to the Rights Agreement, the Board of Directors authorized and declared a dividend distribution of one right (a ‘‘Right’’) for each outstanding share of the common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the ‘‘Common Shares’’), of the Company to stockholders of record at the close of business on January 20, 2015 (the ‘‘Record Date’’). Each Right entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of a share of the Series A Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the ‘‘Preferred Shares’’), of the Company at an exercise price of $325.00 per one one-thousandth of a Preferred Share, subject to adjustment (the ‘‘Exercise Price’’). However, the Rights are not immediately exercisable and will become exercisable only upon the occurrence of certain events. In particular, after January 8, 2015:

  • . if a person or group acquires 15% or more of the Company’s Common Shares (including through derivatives), then the Rights will become exercisable and each Right will entitle its holder (except the acquiring person or group) to purchase, at the Exercise Price, a number of the Company’s Common Shares having a then-current market value of twice the Exercise Price;

– IV-31 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE CBPO GROUP

APPENDIX IV

  • . if after a person or group acquires 15% or more of the Company’s Common Shares, the Company merges into another company, an acquiring entity merges into the Company or the Company sells or transfers more than 50% of its assets, cash flow or earning power, then each Right will entitle its holder (except the acquiring person or group) to purchase, for the Exercise Price, a number of shares of common stock of the person engaging in the transaction having a then-current market value of twice the Exercise Price; or

  • . after a person or group acquires 15% or more of the Company’s Common Shares, the Board may, at its option, exchange the Rights (except for Rights held by the acquiring person or group), in whole or in part, for Common Shares at an exchange ratio of one Common Share per Right (subject to adjustment).

The Board adopted the Rights Agreement to protect stockholders from coercive or otherwise unfair takeover tactics. In general terms, it works by imposing a significant penalty upon any person or group that acquires 15% or more of the Common Shares without the approval of the Board after January 8, 2015. As a result, the overall effect of the Rights Agreement and the issuance of the Rights may be to render more difficult or discourage a merger, tender or exchange offer or other business combination involving the Company that is not approved by the Board. However, neither the Rights Agreement nor the Rights should interfere with any merger, tender or exchange offer or other business combination approved by the Board. The Board of Directors may redeem the rights for $0.001 per right at any time before an event that causes the rights to become exercisable. If not redeemed, the right will expire on January 8, 2017. The Board had previously adopted a similar preferred shares rights agreement on November 19, 2012, which expired on November 20, 2014.

Repayment of Bank Loan

In February 2015, the Company repaid the 6-month RMB194,000,000 (approximately $31,602,600) loan with CMB BJ Branch. In the meanwhile, the time deposit of RMB196,300,000 (approximately $31,977,270) as a security for the loan matured accordingly.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE CBPO GROUP

APPENDIX IV

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013

NOTE 1 — DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT CONCENTRATIONS AND RISKS

China Biologic Products, Inc. (‘‘CBP’’) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the ‘‘Company’’), through its subsidiaries in the People’s Republic of China (the ‘‘PRC’’), is a biopharmaceutical company that is principally engaged in the research, development, manufacturing and sales of plasma-based pharmaceutical products in the PRC. The PRC subsidiaries own and operate plasma stations that purchase and collect plasma from individual donors. The plasma is processed into finished goods after passing through a series of fractionating processes. All of the Company’s plasma products are prescription medicines that require government approval before the products are sold to customers. The Company primarily sells its products to hospitals and inoculation centers directly or through distributors in the PRC.

Cash Concentration

The Company maintains cash balances at financial institutions which, from time to time, may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits for its bank accounts located in the United States or may exceed Hong Kong Deposit Protection Board insured limits for its bank accounts located in Hong Kong or may exceed the insured limits for its bank accounts in China established by China Deposit Insurance Fund Management Institution. Total cash at banks and deposits as of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 amounted to $182,291,723 and $184,186,306, respectively, of which $3,020,569 and $86,744 are insured, respectively. The Company has not experienced any losses in uninsured bank deposits and does not believe that it is exposed to any significant risks on cash held in bank accounts.

Sales Concentration

The Company’s two major products are human albumin and human immunoglobulin for intravenous injection (‘‘IVIG’’). Human albumin accounted for 37.6%, 39.3% and 44.1% of the total sales for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. IVIG accounted for 42.2%, 40.4% and 38.0% of the total sales for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. If the market demands for human albumin and IVIG cannot be sustained in the future or the price of human albumin and IVIG decreases, the Company’s operating results could be adversely affected.

Substantially all of the Company’s customers are located in the PRC. There were no customers that individually comprised 10% or more of sales during the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013. No individual customer represented 10% or more of accounts receivables as at December 31, 2015 and 2014. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and, generally, requires no collateral from its customers.

Purchase Concentration

There was one supplier, namely, Xinjiang Deyuan Bioengineering Co., Ltd. (‘‘Xinjiang Deyuan’’), that comprised 10% or more of the total purchases during the year ended December 31, 2015. No supplier that comprised 10% or more of the total purchases during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. There was one supplier that represented more than 10% of accounts payables as at December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (‘‘GAAP’’), and include the financial statements of the Company and its majority owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. The Company has no involvement with variable interest entities. The Company accounts for investments over which it has significant influence but not a controlling financial interest using the equity method of accounting.

– IV-40 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE CBPO GROUP

APPENDIX IV

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangibles with definite lives, the allowances for doubtful accounts, the fair value determinations of stock compensation awards, the realizability of deferred tax assets and inventories, the recoverability of intangible assets, land use rights, property, plant and equipment, equity method investment and loan receivable, and accruals for income tax uncertainties and other contingencies. The current economic environment has increased the degree of uncertainty inherent in those estimates and assumptions.

Foreign Currency Translation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company are reported in US dollar. The financial position and results of operations of the Company’s subsidiaries in the PRC are measured using the Renminbi, which is the local and functional currency of these entities. Assets and liabilities of the subsidiaries are translated at the prevailing exchange rate in effect at each period end. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average rate of exchange during the period. Translation adjustments are included in other comprehensive income.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue represents the invoiced value of products sold, net of value added taxes (VAT).

Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery of the product has occurred and the customer takes ownership and assumes risk of loss, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection of the relevant receivable is probable. The Company mainly sells human albumin and human immunoglobulin to hospitals, inoculation centers and pharmaceutical distributors. For all sales, the Company requires a signed contract or purchase order, which specify pricing, quantity and product specifications. Delivery of the product occurs when the customer receives the product, which is when the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred. Delivery is evidenced by signed customer acknowledgement. The Company’s sales agreements do not provide the customer the right of return, unless the product is defective in which case the Company allows for an exchange of product or return. For the periods presented, defective product returns were inconsequential.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:

  • . Level 1 Inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets accessible to the entity at the measurement date.

  • . Level 2 Inputs: Other than quoted prices included in Level 1, inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

  • . Level 3 Inputs: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.

The fair value measurement level of an asset or liability within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

See Note 18 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and demand deposits. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three-month or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2015 and 2014 include $85,422,000 and $38,489,045 of certificates of deposit with an initial term of three months or less.

As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company maintained cash and cash equivalents at banks in the following locations:

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. Amounts collected on trade accounts receivable are included in net cash provided by operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses inherent in its accounts receivable portfolio. In establishing the required allowance, management considers historical losses, the customers’ financial condition, the amount of accounts receivables in dispute, the accounts receivables aging and the customers’ payment patterns. The Company reviews its allowance for doubtful accounts monthly. Past due balances are reviewed individually for collectability. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The Company does not have any off-balance-sheet credit exposure related to its customers.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the weighted average method. Cost of work in progress and finished goods comprise direct materials, direct production costs and an allocation of production overheads based on normal operating capacity. Adjustments are recorded to write down the carrying amount of any obsolete and excess inventory to its estimated net realizable value based on historical and forecasted demand.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost.

Depreciation and amortization of property, plant and equipment attributable to manufacturing activities is capitalized as part of inventories, and recognized as cost of revenues when the inventory is sold. Cost incurred in the construction of property, plant and equipment, including process payments and deposits, are initially capitalized as construction-inprogress and transferred into their respective asset categories when the assets are ready for their intended use, at which time depreciation commences.

– IV-42 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE CBPO GROUP

APPENDIX IV

Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Estimated useful lives of the assets are as follows:

Buildings 30 years
Machinery and equipment 10 years
Furniture, fixtures, office equipment and vehicles 5–10 years

When items are retired or otherwise disposed of, income is charged or credited for the difference between net book value and the proceeds received thereon. Ordinary maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, and replacements and betterments are capitalized and amortized over the remaining useful life.

Equity Method Investment

Investment in an investee in which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence, but does not have a controlling interest is accounted for using the equity method. Significant influence is generally presumed to exist when the Company has an ownership interest in the voting stock between 20% and 50%, and other factors, such as representation on the board of directors and participation in policy-making processes, are considered in determining whether the equity method of accounting is appropriate. Under the equity method of accounting, the Company’s share of the investee’s results of operations is included in other income (expenses) in the Company’s consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Deferred taxes are provided for the difference between the book and tax basis of the investment. The Company recognizes a loss if it is determined that other than temporary decline in the value of the investment exists. The process of assessing and determining whether an impairment on a particular equity investment is other than temporary requires a significant amount of judgment. To determine whether an impairment is other-than-temporary, management considers whether the Company has the ability and intent to hold the investment until recovery and whether evidence indicating the carrying value of the investment is recoverable outweighs evidence to the contrary. No impairment loss was recognized by the Company for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013.

Government Grants

Government grants are recognized when there is reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with the conditions attaching to them and the grants will be received. Grants that compensate research and development expenses are recognized as a reduction to the related research and development expenses. Grants that compensate the Company for the cost of property, plant and equipment and land use rights are recognized as deferred income and are recognized over the useful life of the asset by way of other income.

For the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company received government grants of RMB15,000,000 (approximately $2,452,864) related to the new manufacturing facilities for factor products in Shandong Taibang, which was recorded as deferred income. These grants are amortized as the related assets are depreciated. The grants amortized amounted to $118,751 for the year ended December 31, 2015. For the year ended December 31, 2015, government grants of RMB7,280,600 (approximately $1,188,907), have been recognized as a reduction of research and development expenses.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, government grants of RMB12,963,600 (approximately $2,111,770), have been recognized as a reduction of research and development expenses.

For the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company received government grants of RMB18,350,000 (approximately $2,989,215) related to the technical upgrade of the manufacturing facilities in Guizhou Taibang. The grants amortized amounted to $297,434, $224,191 and nil for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Land Use Rights

Land use rights represent the exclusive right to occupy and use a piece of land in the PRC for a specified contractual term. Land use rights are carried at cost, less accumulated amortization. Amortization is calculated using the straight-line method over the contractual period of the rights ranging from 40 to 50 years.

APPENDIX IV

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 were $6,024,368, $4,161,901 and $4,223,165, respectively. These expenses include the costs of the Company’s internal research and development activities.

Product Liability

The Company’s products are covered by two separate product liability insurances each with coverages of approximately $3,220,000 (or RMB20,000,000) for the products sold by Shandong Taibang Biological Products Co., Ltd. (‘‘Shandong Taibang’’) and Guizhou Taibang Biological Products Co., Ltd. (‘‘Guizhou Taibang’’), respectively. There were no product liability claims as of December 31, 2015.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the amount of deferred tax assets if it is considered more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company records interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in general and administrative expenses.

Share-based Payment

The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award and recognizes the cost over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, which generally is the vesting period.

Long-lived Assets

Long-lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment, and purchased intangible asset subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If circumstances require a long-lived asset or asset group be tested for possible impairment, the Company first compares undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by that asset or asset group to its carrying value. If the carrying value of the long-lived asset or asset group is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, an impairment is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds its fair value. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third-party independent appraisals, as considered necessary.

Net Income per Share

Basic net income per share of common stock is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the year using the two-class method. Under the two-class method, net income is allocated between common stock and other participating securities based on their participating rights in undistributed earnings. The Company’s nonvested shares were considered participating securities since the holders of these securities participate in dividends on the same basis as common stockholders. Diluted net income per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders as adjusted for the effect of

APPENDIX IV

dilutive common stock equivalent, if any, by the weighted average number of common stock and dilutive common stock equivalent outstanding during the year. Potential dilutive securities are not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share if the impact is anti-dilutive.

Segment Reporting

The Company has one operating segment, which is the manufacture and sales of human plasma products. Substantially all of the Company’s operations and customers are located in the PRC, and therefore, no geographic information is presented.

Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to loss contingencies, such as legal proceedings and claims arising out of its business, that cover a wide range of matters, including, among others, government investigations and tax matters. An accrual for a loss contingency is recognized when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Legal costs incurred in connection with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (‘‘FASB’’) issued Accounting Standards Update (‘‘ASU’’) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (‘‘ASU 2014-09’’), which amends the existing accounting standards for revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 is based on principles that govern the recognition of revenue at an amount an entity expects to be entitled when products are transferred to customers. The original effective date for ASU 2014-09 would have required the Company to adopt beginning in its first quarter of 2017. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) — Deferral of the Effective Date, which defers the effective date of ASU 2014-09 for one year and permits early adoption as early as the original effective date of ASU 2014-09. Accordingly, the Company may adopt the standard in either its first quarter of 2017 or 2018. The new revenue standard may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the timing of its adoption and the impact of adopting the new revenue standard on its consolidated financial statements.

In July, 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11 (‘‘ASU 2015-11’’), Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory, which required that inventory be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. For public business entities, ASU 2015-11 is effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Earlier application is permitted for all entities as of beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. The Company expects that the adoption of ASU 2015-11 will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.

In November, 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17 (‘‘ASU 2015-17’’), Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, which required that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. For public business entities, ASU 2015-17 is effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Earlier application is permitted for all entities as of beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. The Company expects that the adoption of ASU 2015-17 will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.

NOTE 6 — OTHER RECEIVABLES IN RESPECT OF AN EMPLOYEE HOUSING DEVELOPMENT PROJECT

In 2009, 107 employees, or the Employee-participants, of Shandong Taibang entered into agreements, or the Housing Project Agreements, with a real estate developer regarding a housing development project, pursuant to which the developer agreed to develop and deliver residential units to the Employee-participants by the end of 2011 and the Employee-participants paid the developer deposits equal to 80% of the purchase prices of the residential units. To assist with their deposit payment, Shandong Taibang entered into separate agreements, or the Financial Assistance Agreements, with the Employee-participants and provided them with advances of up to 50% of the purchase prices of the residential units. These advances were to be repaid by deductions from the Employee-participants’ salaries. In addition, Shandong Taibang also entered into a purchase agreement with the developer to purchase additional units in the development project and made a deposit of RMB3,823,200 (approximately $622,799). However, the developer failed to deliver the residential units and is unlikely to be able to perform the Housing Project Agreements. In August 2014, the Company entered into agreements, or the Advance Payment Agreements, with the Employee-participants, pursuant to which the Company made advance payments to the Employee-participants equal to the deposits that the Employee-participants had paid the developer pursuant to the Housing Project Agreements and refunded them the deductions previously made from their salaries pursuant to the Financial Assistance Agreements together with accrued interest totaling RMB27,071,684 (approximately $4,409,977). In November 2014, Shandong Taibang entered into supplemental agreements to the Advance Payment Agreements, or the Supplemental Agreements, with the Employee-participants, pursuant to which the Employeeparticipants transferred and assigned to Shandong Taibang their rights under the Housing Project Agreements, including their rights to pursue legal actions against and recover damages from the developer, and in return, Shandong Taibang waived its right to claim the advance payments and the refunds of the deductions under the Advance Payment Agreements. During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company made a full provision of $5,068,075 in the consolidated financial statements for all the receivables in respect of this employee housing development project (see Note 4), including the deposits paid to the developer, the total advance payments and refunds made under this employee housing development project, as well as the related fees and expenses, because it became probable that these receivables may not be recoverable after all legal means of collection were exhausted.

cash consideration, including interest, of $6,502,901 (or RMB44,327,887) to the Seller, and would bear the risks and benefits as a 35% equity owner in Huitian.

As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, significant temporary differences between the tax basis and financial statement basis of assets and liabilities that gave rise to deferred taxes were principally related to the following:

Deferred tax assets arising from:
— Accrued expenses
— Tax loss carryforwards
Gross deferred tax assets
Less: valuation allowance
Net deferred tax assets
Deferred tax liabilities arising from:
— Intangible assets
— Equity method investment
— Dividend withholding tax
Deferred tax liabilities

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible and tax loss carryforwards are utilized. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities (including the impact of available carryforwards periods), projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.

The deferred tax assets of $8,669,632 for tax loss carry forwards as of December 31, 2015, of which $6,560,170 and $2,109,462 relate to tax loss carryforwards of certain PRC subsidiaries and CBP, respectively. For PRC income tax purposes, certain of the Company’s PRC subsidiaries had tax loss carryforwards of $26,240,681, of which $4,911,567, $6,754,594, $5,050,711, $5,079,935 and $4,443,874 would expire by 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively, if unused. For United States federal income tax purposes, CBP had tax loss carryforwards of approximately $6,204,299, of which $162,235, $3,382,154, $978,837, $1,296,319 and $384,754 would expire by 2030, 2031, 2032, 2033 and 2034, respectively, if unused. In view of their cumulative losses positions, management determined it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets of these PRC subsidiaries will not be realized, and therefore full valuation allowances of $6,560,170 and $6,051,100 were provided as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. For deferred tax assets of CBP, management determined it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets of CBP will not be realized, and therefore valuation allowances of $1,600,441 and $610,039 were provided as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Management believes it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of the deferred tax assets, net of the valuation allowances, as of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

According to the prevailing PRC income tax law and relevant regulations, dividends relating to earnings accumulated beginning on January 1, 2008 that are received by non-PRC-resident enterprises from PRC-resident enterprises are subject to withholding tax at 10%, unless reduced by tax treaties or similar arrangement. Dividends relating to undistributed earnings generated prior to January 1, 2008 are exempt from such withholding tax. Further, dividends received by the Company from its overseas subsidiaries are subject to the U.S. federal income tax at 34%, less any qualified foreign tax credits. Based on the dividend policy the Company has provided the deferred tax liabilities of $7,351,023 on undistributed earnings of $74 million, approximately 50% of Shandong Taibang’s total undistributed earnings at December 31, 2014. Due to the Company’s plan and intention of reinvesting its earnings in its PRC business, the Company has not provided for the related deferred tax liabilities on the remaining undistributed earnings of the PRC subsidiaries totaling $283 million as of December 31, 2015.

As of January 1, 2013 and for each of the years ended December 31, 2013, 2014 and 2015, the Company and its subsidiaries did not have any unrecognized tax benefits, and therefore no interest or penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits were accrued. The Company does not expect that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits will change significantly within the next 12 months.

The Company and each of its PRC subsidiaries file income tax returns in the United States and the PRC, respectively. The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax examination by tax authorities for tax years beginning in 2007. According to the PRC Tax Administration and Collection Law, the statute of limitations is three years if the underpayment of taxes is due to computational errors made by the taxpayer or the withholding agent. The statute of limitations is extended to five years under special circumstances where the underpayment of taxes is more than RMB100,000 (approximately $15,400). In the case of transfer pricing issues, the statute of limitations is ten years. There is no statute of limitations in the case of tax evasion. The PRC tax returns for the Company’s PRC subsidiaries are open to examination by the PRC tax authorities for the tax years beginning in 2010.

NOTE 15 — OPTIONS AND NONVESTED SHARES

NOTE 18 — FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Management used the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of financial instruments at the relevant balance sheet dates:

  • . Short-term financial instruments (including cash and cash equivalents, time deposit, restricted cash deposits, accounts receivable, other receivables, short-term bank loans including current portion of long-term bank loans, accounts payable, other payables and accrued expenses) — The carrying amounts of the short-term financial instruments approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.

  • . Loan receivable, restricted cash and cash deposits, excluding current portion — The carrying amounts of loan receivable, restricted cash and cash deposit approximate their fair value. The fair value is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis based on the Company’s incremental borrowing rates for similar borrowing.

  • . Long-term bank loan excluding current portion- fair value is based on the amount of future cash flows associated with the long-term bank loan discounted at the Company’s current borrowing rate for similar debt instruments of comparable terms. The carrying value of the long-term bank loan approximate its fair value as the long-term bank loan carry variable interest rate which approximate rate currently offered by the Company’s bankers for similar debt instruments of comparable maturities.

Dispute with Jie’an over Certain Capital Injection into Guizhou Taibang

In May 2007, a 91% majority of Guizhou Taibang’s shareholders approved a plan to raise additional capital from qualified strategic investors through the issuance of an additional 20,000,000 shares of Guizhou Taibang. The plan required all existing Guizhou Taibang shareholders to waive their rights of first refusal to subscribe for the additional shares. The remaining 9% minority shareholder of Guizhou Taibang’s shares, Guizhou Jie’an Company, or Jie’an, did not support the plan and did not waive its right of first refusal. In May 2007, Guizhou Taibang signed an Equity Purchase Agreement with certain alleged strategic investors (who concealed their background), pursuant to which such investors agreed to invest an aggregate of RMB50,960,000 (approximately $7,847,840) in exchange for 21.4% of Guizhou Taibang’s equity interests. Such Equity Purchase Agreement was not approved or ratified by over two-thirds supermajority of Guizhou Taibang’s shareholders, which approval or ratification is required under the PRC Company Law. At the same time, as an existing shareholder, Jie’an also subscribed for 1,800,000 shares, representing its pro rata share of the 20,000,000 shares being offered. In total, Guizhou Taibang received RMB50,960,000 (approximately $7,847,840) from the investors and RMB6,480,000 (approximately $997,920) from Jie’an.

In June 2007, Jie’an brought a lawsuit against Guizhou Taibang, alleging that it had a right to acquire the 18,200,000 shares offered to the investors under the Equity Purchase Agreement. The trial court denied Jie’an’s request, and the PRC Supreme Court ultimately sustained the original ruling in May 2009 and denied the rights of first refusal of Jie’an over the 18,200,000 shares.

– IV-58 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE CBPO GROUP

APPENDIX IV

During the second quarter of 2010, Jie’an requested that Guizhou Taibang register its 1.8 million shares of additional capital injection with the local administration of industry and commerce, or AIC. Guizhou Taibang’s board of directors withheld its required ratification of Jie’an’s request, pending the outcome of the ongoing litigation. In March 2012, Jie’an brought another lawsuit against Guizhou Taibang for refusing to register the shares. In July 2013, the trial court dismissed the lawsuit for lack of jurisdiction. Jie’an did not appeal the dismissal.

In December 2013, Jie’an brought a third lawsuit against Guizhou Taibang, requesting Guizhou Taibang to register 1.8 million shares under its name with the local AIC. In July 2014, the trial court denied Jie’an’s request to register such shares. Despite the denial of Jie’an’s share registration request, the trial court, however, in its ruling, ordered Guizhou Taibang to pay accumulated dividends of RMB13,809,197 (approximately $2,126,616) associated with these shares and the related interest expenses to Jie’an. Guizhou Taibang and Jie’an subsequently filed a cross-appeal. In December 2014, the appellate court ruled in favor of Jie’an supporting its request to register 1.8 million shares and ordered Guizhou Taibang to pay Jie’an its share of accumulated dividends of RMB18,339,227 (approximately $2,824,241) associated with these shares plus the related interest expenses to Jie’an. In the first half of 2015, Guizhou Taibang paid an aggregate of RMB22,639,227 (approximately $3,486,441) to the trial court held in escrow pending further appeal of this case. Guizhou Taibang appealed to the High Court of Guizhou in June 2015 which overruled the decision of the appellate court and remanded the case to the trial court for retrial in September 2015.

In November 2013, Guizhou Taibang held a shareholders meeting and the shareholders passed resolutions, or the November 2013 Resolutions, that, inter alia, (i) determined that it was no longer necessary for Guizhou Taibang to obtain additional capital from investors; (ii) rejected Jie’an’s request that Jie’an subscribe for additional shares of Guizhou Taibang alone and one or more other shareholders reduce their shareholding in Guizhou Taibang; and (iii) approved the issuance of a total of 20,000,000 new shares to all existing shareholders on a pro rata basis. Jie’an subsequently filed a fourth lawsuit against Guizhou Taibang in December 2013, requesting that the court declare the November 2013 Resolutions void. Both the trial court and the appellate court denied Jie’an’s request.

In March 2014, Guizhou Taibang held another shareholders meeting and the shareholders passed resolutions, or the March 2014 Resolutions, that, inter alia, re-calculated the ownership percentage in Guizhou Taibang based on the November 2013 Resolutions and the additional capital injections from existing shareholders. Guizhou Taibang subsequently updated the registration with the local AIC regarding the additional capital injections in August 2014. In September 2014, Jie’an and another minority shareholder of Guizhou Taibang filed a lawsuit against Guizhou Taibang, requesting that the court declare both the November 2013 Resolutions and the March 2014 Resolutions void and instruct Guizhou Taibang to withdraw the AIC registration. In November 2014, the trial court suspended this case pending the final outcome of the third lawsuit filed by Jie’an. In October 2015, the trial court denied their request.

If the pending cases with Jie’an are ultimately ruled in Jie’an’s favor, the ownership interest in Guizhou Taibang may be diluted to 80% and Jie’an may be entitled to receive accumulated dividends of RMB18,339,227 (approximately $2,824,241), being its claimed share of Guizhou Taibang’s accumulated dividend distributions associated with the 1.8 million shares, and the related interest expenses from Guizhou Taibang. As of December 31, 2015, Guizhou Taibang had maintained, on its balance sheet, payables to Jie’an in the amounts of RMB5,040,000 (approximately $776,160) as received funds in respect of the 1.8 million shares in dispute, RMB1,440,000 (approximately $221,760) for the over-paid subscription price paid by Jie’an and RMB3,682,673 (approximately $567,132) for the accrued interest. As these cases are closely interlinked to the outcome of the disputes with certain individual investor described below, based on its PRC litigation counsel’s assessment, the Company does not expect Jie’an to prevail.

Dispute with Certain Individual Investors over Certain Capital Injection into Guizhou Taibang

In part due to the invalidity of the Equity Purchase Agreement with certain alleged strategic investors in May 2007, which was never approved or ratified by Guizhou Taibang’s shareholders, such investors’ equity ownership in Guizhou Taibang and the related increase in registered capital of Guizhou Taibang have never been registered with the local AIC. In January 2010, one individual among such investors brought a lawsuit against Guizhou Taibang requesting to register his 14.35% ownership interest in Guizhou Taibang with the local AIC and seeking the distribution of his share of Guizhou Taibang’s dividends declared since 2007.

– IV-59 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE CBPO GROUP

APPENDIX IV

In October 2010, the trial court denied such individual investor’s right as shareholders of Guizhou Taibang and his entitlement to share the dividends, which ruling was reaffirmed after a re-trial by the same trial court in December 2012. After such ruling, Guizhou Taibang attempted to return the originally received fund of RMB34,160,000 (approximately $5,260,640) to such investor by wiring the fund back to his bank account but was unable to do so due to the closure of his bank account. Another investor, however, accepted the returned fund of RMB11,200,000 (approximately $1,724,800) from Guizhou Taibang in November 2010. In 2013, the same individual investor appealed the case to the PRC Supreme Court, which also denied his claims for shareholder status in Guizhou Taibang and the related dividend distribution and accrued interest in September 2013. Such investor subsequently attempted to seek a re-trial by the PRC Supreme Court, which request was denied by the PRC Supreme Court in January 2014. He then applied to the PRC Supreme Procuratorate to request for a review of the PRC Supreme Court’s decision and seek an appeal by the PRC Supreme Procuratorate to the PRC Supreme Court for an ultimate re-trial on his behalf. In July 2015, the PRC Supreme Procuratorate rejected his request for review.

As of December 31, 2015, Guizhou Taibang had maintained, on its balance sheet, payables to the investors of RMB34,160,000 (approximately $5,260,640) as originally received funds from such individual investor in respect of the shares in dispute, RMB17,677,791 (approximately $2,722,380) for the interest expenses, and RMB341,600 (approximately $52,606) for the 1% penalty imposed by the Equity Purchase Agreement for any breach in the event that Guizhou Taibang is required to return the original investment amount to such investor.

The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $80.6 million from this offering, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares by the selling stockholders.

On July 2, 2014, the Company completed a follow-on offering of 1,782,500 shares of common stock at a price of $38.00 per share, less the underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses. In this July 2014 follow-on offering, the Company sold 920,000 shares (including 120,000 shares sold pursuant to the exercise by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares from the Company) and a selling stockholder sold 862,500 shares (including 112,500 shares sold pursuant to the exercise by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares from such selling stockholder). The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $33.2 million from this offering, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by the Company.

NOTE 24 — ACQUISITION OF ADDITIONAL EQUITY INTEREST IN GUIZHOU TAIBANG

On August 25, 2014, Guiyang Dalin Biotechnology (‘‘Guiyang Dalin’’), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an agreement to acquire an additional 19.84% equity interest in Guizhou Taibang from Guizhou Eakan, a noncontrolling interest shareholder of Guizhou Taibang. The total consideration of the transaction was RMB535 million (approximately $82.4 million). The Company completed the acquisition on September 4, 2014 and increased its equity interest in Guizhou Taibang to 76.23%.

NOTE 25 — STOCKHOLDER RIGHTS PLAN

On January 8, 2015, the Board of Directors (the ‘‘Board’’) adopted a stockholder rights plan (the ‘‘Rights Agreement’’). Pursuant to the Rights Agreement, the Board of Directors authorized and declared a dividend distribution of one right (a ‘‘Right’’) for each outstanding share of the common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the ‘‘Common Shares’’), of the Company to stockholders of record at the close of business on January 20, 2015 (the ‘‘Record Date’’). Each Right entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of a share of the Series A Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the ‘‘Preferred Shares’’), of the Company at an exercise price of

– IV-62 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE CBPO GROUP

APPENDIX IV

$325.00 per one one-thousandth of a Preferred Share, subject to adjustment (the ‘‘Exercise Price’’). However, the Rights are not immediately exercisable and will become exercisable only upon the occurrence of certain events. In particular, after January 8, 2015:

  • . if a person or group acquires 15% or more of the Company’s Common Shares (including through derivatives), then the Rights will become exercisable and each Right will entitle its holder (except the acquiring person or group) to purchase, at the Exercise Price, a number of the Company’s Common Shares having a then-current market value of twice the Exercise Price;

  • . if after a person or group acquires 15% or more of the Company’s Common Shares, the Company merges into another company, an acquiring entity merges into the Company or the Company sells or transfers more than 50% of its assets, cash flow or earning power, then each Right will entitle its holder (except the acquiring person or group) to purchase, for the Exercise Price, a number of shares of common stock of the person engaging in the transaction having a then-current market value of twice the Exercise Price; or

  • . after a person or group acquires 15% or more of the Company’s Common Shares, the Board may, at its option, exchange the Rights (except for Rights held by the acquiring person or group), in whole or in part, for Common Shares at an exchange ratio of one Common Share per Right (subject to adjustment).

The Board adopted the Rights Agreement to protect stockholders from coercive or otherwise unfair takeover tactics. In general terms, it works by imposing a significant penalty upon any person or group that acquires 15% or more of the Common Shares without the approval of the Board after January 8, 2015. As a result, the overall effect of the Rights Agreement and the issuance of the Rights may be to render more difficult or discourage a merger, tender or exchange offer or other business combination involving the Company that is not approved by the Board. However, neither the Rights Agreement nor the Rights should interfere with any merger, tender or exchange offer or other business combination approved by the Board. The Board of Directors may redeem the rights for $0.001 per right at any time before an event that causes the rights to become exercisable. If not redeemed, the right will expire on January 8, 2017. The Board had previously adopted a similar preferred shares rights agreement on November 19, 2012, which expired on November 20, 2014.

APPENDIX IV

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014

NOTE 1 — DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT CONCENTRATIONS AND RISKS

China Biologic Products, Inc. (‘‘CBP’’) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the ‘‘Company’’), through its subsidiaries in the People’s Republic of China (the ‘‘PRC’’), is a biopharmaceutical company that is principally engaged in the research, development, manufacturing and sales of plasma-based pharmaceutical products in the PRC. The PRC subsidiaries own and operate plasma collection stations that purchase and collect plasma from individual donors. The plasma is processed into finished goods after passing through a series of fractionating processes. All of the Company’s plasma products are prescription medicines that require government approval before the products are sold to customers. The Company primarily sells its products to hospitals and inoculation centers directly or through distributors in the PRC.

Cash Concentration

The Company maintains cash balances at financial institutions which, from time to time, may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits for its bank accounts located in the United States or may exceed Hong Kong Deposit Protection Board insured limits for its bank accounts located in Hong Kong or may exceed the insured limits for its bank accounts in China established by China Deposit Insurance Fund Management Institution. Total cash at banks and deposits as of December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 amounted to $183,078,440 and $182,291,723, respectively, of which $2,744,704 and $3,020,569 are insured, respectively. The Company has not experienced any losses in uninsured bank deposits and does not believe that it is exposed to any significant risks on cash held in bank accounts.

Sales Concentration

The Company’s two major products are human albumin and human immunoglobulin for intravenous injection (‘‘IVIG’’). Human albumin accounted for 39.2%, 37.6% and 39.3% of the total sales for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively. IVIG accounted for 34.6%, 42.2% and 40.4% of the total sales for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively. If the market demands for human albumin and IVIG cannot be sustained in the future or the price of human albumin and IVIG decreases, the Company’s operating results could be adversely affected.

Substantially all of the Company’s customers are located in the PRC. There were no customers that individually comprised 10% or more of sales during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014. No individual customer represented 10% or more of accounts receivables as at December 31, 2016 and 2015. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and, generally, requires no collateral from its customers.

Purchase Concentration

There was one supplier, namely, Xinjiang Deyuan Bioengineering Co., Ltd. (‘‘Xinjiang Deyuan’’) (see Note 10), that comprised 10% or more of the total purchases during the year ended December 31, 2016 and 2015. No supplier that comprised 10% or more of the total purchases during the year ended December 31, 2014. Chongqing Sanda Great Exploit Pharmaceutical Co, Ltd. and Xinjiang Deyuan represented more than 10% of accounts payables as at December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

APPENDIX IV

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (‘‘GAAP’’), and include the financial statements of the Company and its majority owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. The Company has no involvement with variable interest entities. The Company accounts for investments over which it has significant influence but not a controlling financial interest using the equity method of accounting.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangibles with definite lives, the allowances for doubtful accounts, the fair value determinations of stock compensation awards, the realizability of deferred tax assets and inventories, the recoverability of intangible assets, land use rights, property, plant and equipment, equity method investment and loan receivable, and accruals for income tax uncertainties and other contingencies. The current economic environment has increased the degree of uncertainty inherent in those estimates and assumptions.

Foreign Currency Translation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company are reported in US dollar. The financial position and results of operations of the Company’s subsidiaries in the PRC are measured using the Renminbi, which is the local and functional currency of these entities. Assets and liabilities of the subsidiaries are translated at the prevailing exchange rate in effect at each period end. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average rate of exchange during the period. Translation adjustments are included in other comprehensive income (loss).

Revenue Recognition

Revenue represents the invoiced value of products sold, net of value added taxes (VAT).

Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery of the product has occurred and the customer takes ownership and assumes risk of loss, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection of the relevant receivable is probable. The Company mainly sells human albumin and human immunoglobulin to hospitals, inoculation centers and pharmaceutical distributors. For all sales, the Company requires a signed contract or purchase order, which specify pricing, quantity and product specifications. Delivery of the product occurs when the customer receives the product, which is when the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred. Delivery is evidenced by signed customer acknowledgement. The Company’s sales agreements do not provide the customer the right of return, unless the product is defective in which case the Company allows for an exchange of product or return. For the periods presented, defective product returns were inconsequential.

APPENDIX IV

Fair Value Measurements

The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:

  • . Level 1 Inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets accessible to the entity at the measurement date.

  • . Level 2 Inputs: Other than quoted prices included in Level 1, inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

  • . Level 3 Inputs: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.

The fair value measurement level of an asset or liability within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

See Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and demand deposits. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three-month or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2016 and 2015 include $98,022,000 and $85,422,000 of certificates of deposit with an initial term of three months or less.

As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company maintained cash and cash equivalents at banks in the following locations:

APPENDIX IV

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. Amounts collected on trade accounts receivable are included in net cash provided by operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses inherent in its accounts receivable portfolio. In establishing the required allowance, management considers historical losses, the customers’ financial condition, the amount of accounts receivables in dispute, the accounts receivables aging and the customers’ payment patterns. The Company reviews its allowance for doubtful accounts monthly. Past due balances are reviewed individually for collectability. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The Company does not have any off-balance-sheet credit exposure related to its customers.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the weighted average method. Cost of work in progress and finished goods comprise direct materials, direct production costs and an allocation of production overheads based on normal operating capacity. Adjustments are recorded to write down the carrying amount of any obsolete and excess inventory to its estimated net realizable value based on historical and forecasted demand.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost.

Depreciation and amortization of property, plant and equipment attributable to manufacturing activities is capitalized as part of inventories, and recognized as cost of revenues when the inventory is sold. Cost incurred in the construction of property, plant and equipment, including process payments and deposits, are initially capitalized as construction-inprogress and transferred into their respective asset categories when the assets are ready for their intended use, at which time depreciation commences.

Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Estimated useful lives of the assets are as follows:

Buildings 30 years
Machinery and equipment 10 years
Furniture, fixtures, office equipment and vehicles 5–10 years

When items are retired or otherwise disposed of, income is charged or credited for the difference between net book value and the proceeds received thereon. Ordinary maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, and replacements and betterments are capitalized and amortized over the remaining useful life.

APPENDIX IV

Equity Method Investment

Investment in an investee in which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence, but does not have a controlling interest is accounted for using the equity method. Significant influence is generally presumed to exist when the Company has an ownership interest in the voting stock between 20% and 50%, and other factors, such as representation on the board of directors and participation in policy-making processes, are considered in determining whether the equity method of accounting is appropriate. Under the equity method of accounting, the Company’s share of the investee’s results of operations is included in other income (expenses) in the Company’s consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Deferred taxes are provided for the difference between the book and tax basis of the investment. The Company recognizes a loss if it is determined that other than temporary decline in the value of the investment exists. The process of assessing and determining whether an impairment on a particular equity investment is other than temporary requires a significant amount of judgment. To determine whether an impairment is other-than-temporary, management considers whether the Company has the ability and intent to hold the investment until recovery and whether evidence indicating the carrying value of the investment is recoverable outweighs evidence to the contrary. No impairment loss was recognized by the Company for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014.

Government Grants

Government grants are recognized when there is reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with the conditions attaching to them and the grants will be received. Grants that compensate research and development expenses are recognized as a reduction to the related research and development expenses. Grants that compensate the Company for the cost of property, plant and equipment and land use rights are recognized as deferred income and are recognized over the useful life of the asset by way of other income.

For the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company received government grants of RMB5,056,361 (approximately $728,874), which have been recognized as a reduction of research and development expenses.

For the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company received government grants of RMB15,000,000 (approximately $2,452,864) related to the new manufacturing facilities for factor products in Shandong Taibang, which was recorded as deferred income. These grants are amortized as the related assets are depreciated. The grants amortized amounted to $410,369 and $118,751 for the year ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2015, government grants of RMB7,280,600 (approximately $1,188,907), have been recognized as a reduction of research and development expenses.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, government grants of RMB12,963,600 (approximately $2,111,770), have been recognized as a reduction of research and development expenses.

For the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company received government grants of RMB18,350,000 (approximately $2,989,215) related to the technical upgrade of the manufacturing facilities in Guizhou Taibang. The grants amortized amounted to $276,388, $297,434 and $224,191 for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Land Use Rights

Land use rights represent the exclusive right to occupy and use a piece of land in the PRC for a specified contractual term. Land use rights are carried at cost, less accumulated amortization. Amortization is calculated using the straight-line method over the contractual period of the rights ranging from 40 to 50 years.

APPENDIX IV

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 were $7,021,992, $6,024,368 and $4,161,901, respectively. These expenses include the costs of the Company’s internal research and development activities.

Product Liability

The Company’s products are covered by two separate product liability insurances each with coverages of approximately $2,883,000 (or RMB20,000,000) for the products sold by Shandong Taibang Biological Products Co., Ltd. (‘‘Shandong Taibang’’) and Guizhou Taibang Biological Products Co., Ltd. (‘‘Guizhou Taibang’’), respectively. There were no product liability claims as of December 31, 2016.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the amount of deferred tax assets if it is considered more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company records interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in general and administrative expenses.

Share-based Payment

The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award and recognizes the cost over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, which generally is the vesting period.

Long-lived Assets

Long-lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment, and purchased intangible asset subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If circumstances require a long-lived asset or asset group be tested for possible impairment, the Company first compares undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by that asset or asset group to its carrying value. If the carrying value of the long-lived asset or asset group is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, an impairment is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds its fair value. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third-party independent appraisals, as considered necessary.

APPENDIX IV

Net Income per Share

Basic net income per share of common stock is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the year using the two-class method. Under the two-class method, net income is allocated between common stock and other participating securities based on their participating rights in undistributed earnings. The Company’s nonvested shares were considered participating securities since the holders of these securities participate in dividends on the same basis as common stockholders. Diluted net income per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders as adjusted for the effect of dilutive common stock equivalent, if any, by the weighted average number of common stock and dilutive common stock equivalent outstanding during the year. Potential dilutive securities are not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share if the impact is anti-dilutive.

Segment Reporting

The Company has one operating segment, which is the manufacture and sales of human plasma products. Substantially all of the Company’s operations and customers are located in the PRC, and therefore, no geographic information is presented.

Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to loss contingencies, such as legal proceedings and claims arising out of its business, that cover a wide range of matters, including, among others, government investigations and tax matters. An accrual for a loss contingency is recognized when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Legal costs incurred in connection with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (‘‘FASB’’) issued Accounting Standards Update (‘‘ASU’’) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (‘‘ASU 2014-09’’), which amends the existing accounting standards for revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 is based on principles that govern the recognition of revenue at an amount an entity expects to be entitled when products are transferred to customers. The original effective date for ASU 2014-09 would have required the Company to adopt beginning in its first quarter of 2017. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) — Deferral of the Effective Date, which defers the effective date of ASU 2014-09 for one year and permits early adoption as early as the original effective date of ASU 2014-09. Accordingly, the Company may adopt the standard in either its first quarter of 2017 or 2018. The new revenue standard may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of adoption. The Company plans to complete its evaluation by the third quarter of 2017, including an assessment of the new expanded disclosure requirements and a final determination of the transition method we will use to adopt the new standard.

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (‘‘FASB’’) issued Accounting Standards Update (‘‘ASU’’) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (‘‘ASU 2016-02’’), which modified lease accounting for both lessees and lessors to increase transparency and comparability by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous accounting standards and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 is effective for public companies for annual reporting periods, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2016-02 on its consolidated financial statements.

APPENDIX IV

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (‘‘ASU 2016-09’’), which simplified certain aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including income taxes, classification of awards and classification in the statement of cash flows. This standard will be effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2016-09 on its consolidated financial statements. Adoption of this new standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which addressed and provided guidance for each of eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. This standard will be effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2016-15 on its consolidated financial statements.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory. This standard required that companies recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset (other than inventory) when the transfer occurs. Current guidance prohibits companies from recognizing current and deferred income taxes for an intra-entity asset transfer until the asset has been sold to an outside party. This standard will be effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance may have on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 6 — OTHER RECEIVABLES IN RESPECT OF AN EMPLOYEE HOUSING DEVELOPMENT PROJECT

In 2009, 107 employees, or the Employee-participants, of Shandong Taibang entered into agreements, or the Housing Project Agreements, with a real estate developer regarding a housing development project, pursuant to which the developer agreed to develop and deliver residential units to the Employee-participants by the end of 2011 and the Employee-participants paid the developer deposits equal to 80% of the purchase prices of the residential units. To assist with their deposit payment, Shandong Taibang entered into separate agreements, or the Financial Assistance Agreements, with the Employee-participants and provided them with advances of up to 50% of the purchase prices of the residential units. These advances were to be repaid by deductions from the Employee-participants’ salaries. In addition, Shandong Taibang also entered into a purchase agreement with the developer to purchase additional units in the development project and made a deposit of RMB3,823,200 (approximately $622,799). However, the developer failed to deliver the residential units and is unlikely to be able to perform the Housing Project Agreements. In August 2014, the Company entered into agreements, or the Advance Payment Agreements, with the Employee-participants, pursuant to which the Company made advance payments to the Employee-participants equal to the deposits that the Employee-participants had paid the developer pursuant to the Housing Project Agreements and refunded them the deductions previously made from their salaries pursuant to the Financial Assistance Agreements together with accrued interest totaling RMB27,071,684 (approximately $4,409,977). In November 2014, Shandong Taibang entered into supplemental agreements to the Advance Payment Agreements, or the Supplemental Agreements, with the Employee-participants, pursuant to which the Employeeparticipants transferred and assigned to Shandong Taibang their rights under the Housing Project Agreements, including their rights to pursue legal actions against and recover damages from the developer, and in return, Shandong Taibang waived its right to claim the advance payments and the refunds of the deductions under the Advance Payment Agreements. During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company made a full provision of $5,068,075 in the consolidated financial statements for all the receivables in respect of this employee housing development project (see Note 4), including the deposits paid to the developer, the total advance payments and refunds made under this employee housing development project, as well as the related fees and expenses, because it became probable that these receivables may not be recoverable after all legal means of collection were exhausted.

Such amount paid and received is eliminated upon consolidation. Taibang Biological agreed to indemnify the noncontrolling interest holder of Shandong Taibang for any loss arising from the Entrust Agreement and has pledged the Company’s equity interest in Shandong Taibang as collateral against such loss.

APPENDIX IV

The PRC tax rate has been used because the majority of the Company’s consolidated pre-tax earnings arise in the

PRC.

As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, significant temporary differences between the tax basis and financial statement basis of assets and liabilities that gave rise to deferred taxes were principally related to the following:

Deferred tax assets arising from:
— Accrued expenses
— Deferred income
— Property, Plant and Equipment
— Other non-current assets
— Tax loss carryforwards
Gross deferred tax assets
Less: valuation allowance
Net deferred tax assets
Deferred tax liabilities arising from:
— Intangible assets
— Equity method investment
— Dividend withholding tax
Deferred tax liabilities
Classification on consolidated balance sheets:
Deferred tax assets — current, net (included in prepayments and other current
assets)
Deferred tax assets — non-current, net (included in other non-current assets)
Deferred tax liabilities — non-current, net (included in other liabilities)

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible and tax loss carryforwards are utilized. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities (including the impact of available carryforwards periods), projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.

The deferred tax assets of $27,783,051 for tax loss carry forwards as of December 31, 2016, of which $6,139,906 and $21,643,145 relate to tax loss carryforwards of certain PRC subsidiaries and CBP, respectively. For PRC income tax purposes, certain of the Company’s PRC subsidiaries had tax loss carryforwards of $24,559,624, of which $6,322,563, $4,727,663, $4,755,017, $4,159,639 and $4,594,742 would expire by 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021, respectively, if unused. For United States federal income tax purposes, CBP had tax loss carryforwards of approximately $63,656,308, of which $162,235, $3,382,154, $978,837, $1,296,319, $384,754, nil and $57,452,009 would expire by 2030, 2031, 2032, 2033, 2034 and 2035, 2036, respectively, if unused. In view of their cumulative losses positions, management determined it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets of these PRC subsidiaries will not be realized, and therefore full valuation allowances of $6,139,906 and $6,560,170 were provided as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. For deferred tax assets of CBP, management determined it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets of CBP will not be realized, and therefore valuation allowances of $20,489,273 and $1,600,441 were provided as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

According to the prevailing PRC income tax law and relevant regulations, dividends relating to earnings accumulated beginning on January 1, 2008 that are received by non-PRC-resident enterprises from PRC-resident enterprises are subject to withholding tax at 10%, unless reduced by tax treaties or similar arrangement. Dividends relating to undistributed earnings generated prior to January 1, 2008 are exempt from such withholding tax. Further, dividends received by the Company from its overseas subsidiaries are subject to the U.S. federal income tax at 34%, less any qualified foreign tax credits. Based on the dividend policy the Company has provided the deferred tax liabilities of $7,351,023 on undistributed earnings of $74 million, approximately 50% of Shandong Taibang’s total undistributed earnings at December 31, 2014. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the deferred tax liabilities of $1,265,733 was reversed following a sum of RMB82,760,000 (approximately $11,929,854) dividend distribution to Taibang Holdings (Hong Kong) Limited by Taibang Biotech (Shandong) Co., Ltd. in 2016, which was generated from distributed earnings of Shandong Taibang. Due to the Company’s plan and intention of reinvesting its earnings in its PRC business, the Company has not provided for the related deferred tax liabilities on the remaining undistributed earnings of the PRC subsidiaries totaling $388 million as of December 31, 2016.

As of January 1, 2014 and for each of the years ended December 31, 2014, 2015 and 2016, the Company and its subsidiaries did not have any unrecognized tax benefits, and therefore no interest or penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits were accrued. The Company does not expect that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits will change significantly within the next 12 months.

The Company and each of its PRC subsidiaries file income tax returns in the United States and the PRC, respectively. The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax examination by tax authorities for tax years beginning in 2007. According to the PRC Tax Administration and Collection Law, the statute of limitations is three years if the underpayment of taxes is due to computational errors made by the taxpayer or the withholding agent. The statute of limitations is extended to five years under special circumstances where the underpayment of taxes is more than RMB100,000 (approximately $14,415). In the case of transfer pricing issues, the statute of limitations is ten years. There is no statute of limitations in the case of tax evasion. The PRC tax returns for the Company’s PRC subsidiaries are open to examination by the PRC tax authorities for the tax years beginning in 2010.

  • . Loan receivable — The carrying amounts of loan receivable approximate their fair value. The fair value is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis based on the Company’s incremental borrowing rates for similar borrowing.

Dispute with Jie’an over Certain Capital Injection into Guizhou Taibang

In May 2007, a 91% majority of Guizhou Taibang’s shareholders approved a plan to raise additional capital from qualified strategic investors through the issuance of an additional 20,000,000 shares of Guizhou Taibang. The plan required all existing Guizhou Taibang shareholders to waive their rights of first refusal to subscribe for the additional shares. The remaining 9% minority shareholder of Guizhou Taibang’s shares, Guizhou Jie’an Company, or Jie’an, did not support the plan and did not waive its right of first refusal. In May 2007, Guizhou Taibang signed an Equity Purchase Agreement with certain alleged strategic investors (who concealed their background), pursuant to which such investors agreed to invest an aggregate of RMB50,960,000 (approximately $7,345,884) in exchange for 21.4% of Guizhou Taibang’s equity interests. Such Equity Purchase Agreement was not approved or ratified by over two-thirds supermajority of Guizhou Taibang’s shareholders, which approval or ratification is required under the PRC Company Law. At the same time, as an existing shareholder, Jie’an also subscribed for 1,800,000 shares, representing its pro rata share of the 20,000,000 shares being offered. In total, Guizhou Taibang received RMB50,960,000 (approximately $7,345,884) from the investors and RMB6,480,000 (approximately $934,092) from Jie’an.

In June 2007, Jie’an brought a lawsuit against Guizhou Taibang, alleging that it had a right to acquire the 18,200,000 shares offered to the investors under the Equity Purchase Agreement. The trial court denied Jie’an’s request, and the PRC Supreme Court ultimately sustained the original ruling in May 2009 and denied the rights of first refusal of Jie’an over the 18,200,000 shares.

– IV-89 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE CBPO GROUP

APPENDIX IV

During the second quarter of 2010, Jie’an requested that Guizhou Taibang register its 1.8 million shares of additional capital injection with the local administration of industry and commerce, or AIC. Guizhou Taibang’s board of directors withheld its required ratification of Jie’an’s request, pending the outcome of the ongoing litigation. In March 2012, Jie’an brought another lawsuit against Guizhou Taibang for refusing to register the shares. In July 2013, the trial court dismissed the lawsuit for lack of jurisdiction. Jie’an did not appeal the dismissal.

In December 2013, Jie’an brought a third lawsuit against Guizhou Taibang, requesting Guizhou Taibang to register 1.8 million shares under its name with the local AIC. In July 2014, the trial court denied Jie’an’s request to register such shares. Despite the denial of Jie’an’s share registration request, the trial court, however, in its ruling, ordered Guizhou Taibang to pay accumulated dividends of RMB13,809,197 (approximately $1,990,595) associated with these shares and the related interest expenses to Jie’an. Guizhou Taibang and Jie’an subsequently filed a cross-appeal. In December 2014, the appellate court ruled in favor of Jie’an supporting its request to register 1.8 million shares and ordered Guizhou Taibang to pay Jie’an its share of accumulated dividends of RMB18,339,227 (approximately $2,643,600) associated with these shares plus the related interest expenses to Jie’an. In the first half of 2015, Guizhou Taibang paid an aggregate of RMB22,639,227 (approximately $3,263,445) to the trial court held in escrow pending further appeal of this case. Guizhou Taibang appealed to the High Court of Guizhou in June 2015 which overruled the decision of the appellate court and remanded the case to the trial court for retrial in September 2015. In August 2016, the trial court granted Jie’an’s petition to withdraw the lawsuit as Jie’an sought to withdraw its capital contribution in Guizhou Taibang pursuant to an agreement dated July 31, 2016. The funds held in escrow were credited to the consideration payable to Jie’an for the capital withdrawal as described below.

In November 2013, Guizhou Taibang held a shareholders meeting and the shareholders passed resolutions, or the November 2013 Resolutions, that, inter alia, (i) determined that it was no longer necessary for Guizhou Taibang to obtain additional capital from investors; (ii) rejected Jie’an’s request that Jie’an subscribe for additional shares of Guizhou Taibang alone and one or more other shareholders reduce their shareholding in Guizhou Taibang; and (iii) approved the issuance of a total of 20,000,000 new shares to all existing shareholders on a pro rata basis. Jie’an subsequently filed a fourth lawsuit against Guizhou Taibang in December 2013, requesting that the court declare the November 2013 Resolutions void. Both the trial court and the appellate court denied Jie’an’s request.

In March 2014, Guizhou Taibang held another shareholders meeting and the shareholders passed resolutions, or the March 2014 Resolutions, that, inter alia, re-calculated the ownership percentage in Guizhou Taibang based on the November 2013 Resolutions and the additional capital injections from existing shareholders. Guizhou Taibang subsequently updated the registration with the local AIC regarding the additional capital injections in August 2014. In September 2014, Jie’an and Shenzhen Yigong Shengda Technology Co., Ltd., or Yigong Shengda, another minority shareholder of Guizhou Taibang filed a lawsuit against Guizhou Taibang, requesting that the court declare both the November 2013 Resolutions and the March 2014 Resolutions void and instruct Guizhou Taibang to withdraw the AIC registration. In November 2014, the trial court suspended this case pending the final outcome of the third lawsuit filed by Jie’an. In October 2015, the trial court denied their request. In May 2016, the appellate court vacated the trial court’s decision to uphold Guizhou Taibang’s shareholders resolution, and remanded the case for retrial. In August 2016, the trial court granted the petitions by Jie’an and Yigong Shengda to withdraw the lawsuit as Jie’an and Yigong Shengda sought to withdraw their respective capital contributions in Guizhou Taibang pursuant to an agreement dated July 31, 2016.

APPENDIX IV

On July 31, 2016, Guiyang Dalin Biologic Technologies Co., Ltd., or Guiyang Dalin, Guizhou Taibang, Jie’an and Yigong Shengda entered into an agreement, pursuant to which Jie’an and Yigong Shengda agreed to withdraw their respective capital contributions in Guizhou Taibang for an aggregate consideration of RMB415,000,000 (approximately $59,822,250). In August 2016, Guizhou Taibang paid the first installment of RMB90,000,000 (approximately $12,973,500) of the consideration to Jie’an and Yigong Shengda. Guizhou Taibang completed the AIC registration for the foregoing capital withdrawal in October 2016 and paid the balance of the consideration to Jie’an and Yigong Shengda in November 2016. As a result of the capital withdrawal, Guiyang Dalin has become the sole shareholder of Guizhou Taibang.

Dispute with Certain Individual Investors over Certain Capital Injection into Guizhou Taibang

In part due to the invalidity of the Equity Purchase Agreement with certain alleged strategic investors in May 2007, which was never approved or ratified by Guizhou Taibang’s shareholders, such investors’ equity ownership in Guizhou Taibang and the related increase in registered capital of Guizhou Taibang have never been registered with the local AIC. In January 2010, one individual among such investors brought a lawsuit against Guizhou Taibang requesting to register his 14.35% ownership interest in Guizhou Taibang with the local AIC and seeking the distribution of his share of Guizhou Taibang’s dividends declared since 2007.

In October 2010, the trial court denied such individual investor’s right as shareholders of Guizhou Taibang and his entitlement to share the dividends, which ruling was reaffirmed after a re-trial by the same trial court in December 2012. After such ruling, Guizhou Taibang attempted to return the originally received fund of RMB34,160,000 (approximately $4,924,164) to such investor by wiring the fund back to his bank account but was unable to do so due to the closure of his bank account. Another investor, however, accepted the returned fund of RMB11,200,000 (approximately $1,614,480) from Guizhou Taibang in November 2010. In 2013, the same individual investor appealed the case to the PRC Supreme Court, which also denied his claims for shareholder status in Guizhou Taibang and the related dividend distribution and accrued interest in September 2013. Such investor subsequently attempted to seek a re-trial by the PRC Supreme Court, which request was denied by the PRC Supreme Court in January 2014. He then applied to the PRC Supreme Procuratorate to request for a review of the PRC Supreme Court’s decision and seek an appeal by the PRC Supreme Procuratorate to the PRC Supreme Court for an ultimate re-trial on his behalf. In July 2015, the PRC Supreme Procuratorate rejected his request for review.

As of December 31, 2016, Guizhou Taibang had maintained, on its balance sheet, payables to the investors of RMB34,160,000 (approximately $4,924,164) as originally received funds from such individual investor in respect of the shares in dispute, RMB20,586,941 (approximately $2,967,608) for the interest expenses, and RMB341,600 (approximately $49,241) for the 1% penalty imposed by the Equity Purchase Agreement for any breach in the event that Guizhou Taibang is required to return the original investment amount to such investor.

The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $80.6 million from this offering, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares by the selling stockholders.

On July 2, 2014, the Company completed a follow-on offering of 1,782,500 shares of common stock at a price of $38.00 per share, less the underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses. In this July 2014 follow-on offering, the Company sold 920,000 shares (including 120,000 shares sold pursuant to the exercise by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares from the Company) and a selling stockholder sold 862,500 shares (including 112,500 shares sold pursuant to the exercise by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares from such selling stockholder). The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $33.2 million from this offering, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares by the selling stockholder.

NOTE 22 — CAPITAL WITHDRAWAL BY TWO FORMER NONCONTROLLING INTEREST SHAREHOLDERS OF GUIZHOU TAIBANG

On October 26, 2016, Guizhou Taibang completed the requisite legal and administrative procedures, through which two former minority shareholders, holding a combined 15.3% equity interest in Guizhou Taibang, withdrew their respective capital contributions in Guizhou Taibang for an aggregate consideration of RMB415,000,000 (approximately $59,822,250) pursuant to an agreement dated July 31, 2016. (see Note 18)

NOTE 23 — STOCKHOLDER RIGHTS PLAN

On February 22, 2017, the Board of Directors (the ‘‘Board’’) adopted a stockholder rights plan (the ‘‘Rights Agreement’’). Pursuant to the Rights Agreement, the Board of Directors authorized and declared a dividend distribution of one right (a ‘‘Right’’) for each outstanding share of the common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the ‘‘Common Shares’’), of the Company to stockholders of record at the close of business on March 6, 2017 (the ‘‘Record Date’’). Each Right entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of a share of the Series A

– IV-93 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE CBPO GROUP

APPENDIX IV

Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the ‘‘Preferred Shares’’), of the Company at an exercise price of $550.00 per one one-thousandth of a Preferred Share, subject to adjustment (the ‘‘Exercise Price’’). However, the Rights are not immediately exercisable and will become exercisable only upon the occurrence of certain events. In particular, after February 22, 2017:

  • . if a person or group acquires 15% or more of the Company’s Common Shares (including through derivatives), then the Rights will become exercisable and each Right will entitle its holder (except the acquiring person or group) to purchase, at the Exercise Price, a number of the Company’s Common Shares having a then-current market value of twice the Exercise Price;

  • . if after a person or group acquires 15% or more of the Company’s Common Shares, the Company merges into another company, an acquiring entity merges into the Company or the Company sells or transfers more than 50% of its assets, cash flow or earning power, then each Right will entitle its holder (except the acquiring person or group) to purchase, for the Exercise Price, a number of shares of common stock of the person engaging in the transaction having a then-current market value of twice the Exercise Price; or

  • . after a person or group acquires 15% or more of the Company’s Common Shares, the Board may, at its option, exchange the Rights (except for Rights held by the acquiring person or group), in whole or in part, for Common Shares at an exchange ratio of one Common Share per Right (subject to adjustment).

The Board adopted the Rights Agreement to protect stockholders from coercive or otherwise unfair takeover tactics. In general terms, it works by imposing a significant penalty upon any person or group that acquires 15% or more of the Common Shares without the approval of the Board after February 22, 2017. As a result, the overall effect of the Rights Agreement and the issuance of the Rights may be to render more difficult or discourage a merger, tender or exchange offer or other business combination involving the Company that is not approved by the Board. However, neither the Rights Agreement nor the Rights should interfere with any merger, tender or exchange offer or other business combination approved by the Board. The Board of Directors may redeem the rights for $0.001 per right at any time before an event that causes the rights to become exercisable. If not redeemed, the right will expire on February 22, 2019. The Board had previously adopted similar preferred shares rights agreements on November 19, 2012, which expired on November 20, 2014, and on January 8, 2015, which expired on January 8, 2017.

APPENDIX IV

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2017 and 2016

NOTE 1 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION, SIGNIFICANT CONCENTRATION AND RISKS

(a) Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (‘‘U.S. GAAP’’). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted as permitted by rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (‘‘SEC’’). The December 31, 2016 consolidated balance sheet was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements of China Biologic Products, Inc. (the ‘‘Company’’). The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2016 audited consolidated financial statements of the Company included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present a fair statement of the financial position as of June 30, 2017, the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, have been made.

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Effective January 1, 2017, on a retrospective basis, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (‘‘FASB’’) Accounting Standards Update (‘‘ASU’’) 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes (Topic 740). This update required that deferred tax assets and liabilities be classified as noncurrent. As a result of adoption of this guidance, the Company reclassified current deferred income tax assets in the amount of $4,625,996, which had been included in prepayments and other current assets, to other noncurrent assets as of December 31, 2016. There was no impact on results of operations or cash flows as a result of the adoption of this guidance.

Effective January 1, 2017, the Company adopted the FASB ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee ShareBased Payment Accounting. The standard simplified certain aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including recognition of excess tax benefits and deficiencies, classification of awards and classification in the statement of cash flows. As a result of adoption, the Company elected to adopt the change regarding income taxes on a prospective basis to recognize excess tax benefits and deficiencies from stock-based compensation as a discrete item in income tax expense, which were historically recorded as additional paid-in-capital. In addition, the Company elected to apply the change regarding classification in the statement of cash flows prospectively to record excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation from cash flows from financing activities to cash flows from operating activities. The adoption of this standard in the first quarter of this year had no material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

  1. DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE ACCOUNTING POLICIES ADOPTED BY THE COMPANY (HKFRS) AND CBPO (U.S. GAAP)

As described in ‘‘Letter from the Board — Waiver from Strict Compliance with the Listing Rules’’, the Company has applied to the Stock Exchange for, and been granted, a waiver from the requirement to produce an accountants’ report on CBPO in accordance with Rule 14.69 (4) (a) (i) of the Listing Rules.

Instead, this circular contains a copy of:

  • (a) the audited consolidated financial statements of CBPO for the financial years ended December 31, 2014, 2015 and 2016 prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, including the management discussion and analysis, extracted from the annual reports of CBPO for each of those years (together the ‘‘CBPO Historical 3 Years’ Accounts’’); and

  • (b) the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of CBPO for the six months ended June 30, 2017 prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, including the management discussion and analysis, extracted from the quarterly report of CBPO for the aforementioned period (the ‘‘CBPO Q2 2017 Accounts’’).

The CBPO Historical 3 years’ Accounts and CBPO Q2 2017 Accounts cover the balance sheets of CBPO as of December 31, 2014, 2015, 2016 and June 30, 2017 and the results of CBPO for each of the three years ended December 31, 2014, 2015 and 2016 and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2017 (the ‘‘Relevant Periods’’).

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the CBPO Historical 3 Years’ Accounts and CBPO Q2 2017 Accounts differ in certain material respects from the accounting policies presently adopted by the Company which comply with HKFRS (the ‘‘Company’s Policies’’). Differences which would have a significant effect on the CBPO Historical 3 Years’ Accounts and CBPO Q2 2017 Accounts, had they been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies presently adopted by the Company rather than in accordance with U.S. GAAP, are set out below in ‘‘CBPO’s Unaudited Adjusted Financial Information under the Company’s Policies’’, with the following disclosures:

  • (a) a comparison between CBPO’s consolidated statements of operations and consolidated statements of comprehensive income as extracted from the CBPO Historical 3 years’ Accounts and CBPO Q2 2017 Accounts, respectively, prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and adjusted consolidated income statement and consolidated statement of comprehensive income had they instead been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies adopted by the Company which are in compliance with HKFRS.

Basis of Preparation

The Reconciliation Information for the Relevant Periods, which presents the ‘‘Unadjusted Financial Information under U.S. GAAP’’ of CBPO as if it had been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies presently adopted by the Company which are in compliance with HKFRS, has been prepared on the assumption that the transition provisions of HKFRS 1, First-time Adoption of Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (‘‘HKFRS 1’’) are applicable to CBPO. CBPO’s HKFRS transition date is deemed to be January 1, 2014 and as such, CBPO has applied the mandatory exceptions and certain optional exemptions afforded by HKFRS 1 for the preparation of the Reconciliation Information for the Relevant Periods.

The Reconciliation Information has been prepared by comparing and analyzing the differences between the accounting policies adopted by CBPO for the preparation of the CBPO Historical 3 Years’ Accounts and CBPO Q2 2017 Accounts in accordance with U.S. GAAP and the accounting policies adopted by the Company which are in compliance with HKFRS, and quantifying the relevant material financial effects of such differences.

PricewaterhouseCoopers Hong Kong (‘‘PwC Hong Kong’’) was engaged by the Company to conduct work in accordance with the Hong Kong Standard on Assurance Engagements 3000 ‘‘Assurance Engagements Other Than Audits or Reviews of Historical Financial Information’’ (‘‘HKSAE 3000’’) issued by the HKICPA on the Reconciliation Information. The work consisted primarily of:

  • (i) comparing the Unadjusted Financial Information under U.S. GAAP with the audited or reviewed financial statements of the CBPO Group as set out in Appendix IV of the Circular;

  • (ii) comparing the accounting policies of the CBPO Group as set out in Appendix IV of the Circular with the accounting policies of the Group as set out in the published audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE CBPO GROUP

APPENDIX IV

December 31, 2014, 2015 and 2016 and the published unaudited consolidated interim financial information of the Company for the six months ended June 30 2017;

  • (iii) reviewing the adjustments, if any, made by the Directors of the Company in arriving at the CBPO’s Unaudited Adjusted Financial Information under the Company’s Policies and evidence supporting the adjustments; and

  • (iv) checking the arithmetic accuracy of the computation of the CBPO’s Unaudited Adjusted Financial Information under the Company’s Policies.

PwC Hong Kong’s engagement did not involve independent examination of any of the underlying financial information. The work carried out in accordance with HKSAE 3000 is different in scope from an audit or a review conducted in accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing or Hong Kong Standards on Review Engagements issued by the HKICPA and consequently, PwC Hong Kong did not express an audit opinion nor a review conclusion on the Reconciliation Information. PwC Hong Kong’s engagement was intended solely for the use of the Directors in connection with this circular and may not be suitable for another purpose. Based on the work performed, PwC Hong Kong has concluded that:

  • (i) the Unadjusted Financial Information under U.S. GAAP has been properly extracted from the CBPO Historical 3 Years’ Accounts and CBPO Q2 2017 Accounts;

  • (ii) in all material respects there were no differences between the accounting policies of the CBPO as set out in CBPO Historical 3 Years’ Accounts and CBPO Q2 2017 Accounts and the accounting policies of the Group as set out in the published audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2014, 2015 and 2016 and the published unaudited consolidated interim financial information of the Companyfor the six months ended June 30, 2017 requiring adjustments to the Unadjusted Financial Information under U.S. GAAP to arrive at the CBPO’s Unaudited Adjusted Financial Information under the Company’s Policies; and

  • (iii) the computation of the Adjusted Financial Information under the Company’s Policies is arithmetically accurate.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE CBPO GROUP

APPENDIX IV

Reclassifications-Alignment of CBPO’s Presentation to the Company’s Presentation

a. Other gains(losses) — net

CBPO classified non-operating income (expenses) and gain (loss) on disposal of property, plant and equipment as ‘‘General and administrative expenses’’. The Company presents all such expenses as ‘‘Other gains (losses) — net’’.

In addition, CBPO net off government grant for reimbursing expenses incurred for specific research and development programs against R&D expense directly. The Company presents such government grant as ‘‘Other gains’’.

Therefore, such expenses and government grant received have been reclassified to ‘‘Other gains (losses) — net’’.

b. Gain or Loss from Disposal of a Subsidiary

CBPO presents ‘‘Loss from disposal of a subsidiary’’ as a separate line as a nonoperating component of its consolidated statements of operations for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2016. The Company presents gain or loss from disposal of a subsidiary as a component of ‘‘Other gains (losses) — net’’ as a component of ‘‘Operating profit’’. As such, gain or loss from disposal of a subsidiary has been reclassified to ‘‘Other gains (losses) — net’’.

c. Foreign Exchange Gains or Losses

CBPO presents foreign exchange gains or losses as a component of ‘‘General and administrative expenses’’. The Company presents all foreign exchange gains or losses within ‘‘Finance costs’’. Therefore, foreign exchange gains and losses have been reclassified to ‘‘Finance costs’’.

d. Prepayment and Other Receivables

CBPO presents prepayment and other receivables as a separate line item on its consolidated balance sheets. The Company presents prepayment and other receivables as a component of ‘‘Trade and other receivables’’. Accordingly, prepayment and other receivables have been reclassified to ‘‘Trade and other receivables’’.

e. Long-term prepayment

CBPO presents prepayment for property, plant and equipment as a component of ‘‘property, plant and equipment’’. In addition, CBPO presents prepayment for investment and other long-term prepayment as ‘‘Other non-current assets’’. The Company presents these prepayment as ‘‘Long-term prepayment’’. Hence, prepayment with long-term nature have been reclassified to ‘‘Long-term prepayment’’.

– IV-129 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE CBPO GROUP

APPENDIX IV

f. Intangible assets

CBPO presents intangible assets as a component of ‘‘Non-current assets’’. The Company presents intangible assets separately on its consolidated balance sheets. As such, intangible assets have been reclassified from ‘‘Non-current assets’’ to ‘‘Intangible assets.’’

g. Deferred Income Taxes

CBPO presents deferred income tax assets as ‘‘prepayment and other current assets’’ or ‘‘other non-current assets’’ and presents deferred income tax liabilities as ‘‘other liabilities’’ as of December 31, 2013, 2014 and 2015 and classified all deferred income taxes as non-current assets or liabilities as of December 31, 2016 and June 30, 2017, respectively. The Company presents deferred income taxes separately on its consolidated balance sheets and classifies all deferred income taxes balances as non-current assets or liabilities regardless of the period in which the underlying timing differences are expected to reverse. Therefore, deferred income taxes balances as of December 31, 2014, 2015, 2016 and June 30, 2017 were reclassified accordingly.

h. Other payable and accrued expenses

CBPO record other payable and accrued expenses as a separate line on its consolidated balance sheet, while the Company presents all payables as ‘‘Trade and other payables.’’ As such, other payable and accrued expenses have been reclassified to ‘‘Trade and other payables.’’

Measurement Adjustments

i. Share-based Payments

Share-based payment expenses arising in connection with CBPO’s equity classified sharebased payment arrangements (i.e. its stock options and time-based Restricted Stock Units (‘‘RSUs’’)) are recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. The Company accounts for each award separately and accordingly, recognizes expenses over the period that the employees unconditionally become entitled to the awards. The difference between expense attribution under CBPO’s policy versus the Company’s policy resulted in additional pre-tax share-based payment expense of US$2.0 million, US$6.1 million and US$10.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2015 and 2016, respectively, and US$4.7 million and US$6.6 million for the six months period ended June 30, 2016 and 2017, respectively.

j. Unrealized gain on intra-group sales

Income taxes paid by the seller on intra-group profits related to inventory that remain within the consolidated group, including the tax effect of any reversing temporary differences in the seller’s tax jurisdiction, are deferred. CBPO recognizes the amount of tax effect in prepayment and other current assets in the statement of balance sheet until such time as the asset leaves the consolidated group, at which point the amount is reclassified to income tax

– IV-130 –

APPENDIX IV

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE CBPO GROUP

expense. The Company accounts for the related deferred tax effect based on the tax rate of the purchaser, recognizes the amount in deferred tax assets. The current tax effects for the seller are recognized in the current tax position. The difference between expense attribution under CBPO’s policy versus the Company’s policy resulted in income tax expense of US$70,599, US$75,509 and US$5,930 for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2015 and 2016, respectively, and US$17,663 and US$75,904 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2017, respectively.

k. Income Taxes

Income tax adjustments reflect the tax effect of the measurement adjustments noted in i above.

Base salaries are a fixed component of

– IV-132 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE CBPO GROUP

APPENDIX IV

compensation and their determination involves an evaluation of the competitive market-based data derived from comparable companies. Base salaries are generally reviewed annually and adjustments are considered based on the individual performance, level of experience or tenure, and the current market salary. Performance-based discretionary bonuses are based upon achievement of corporate objectives and individual performance, ultimately subject to the discretion of the board of directors and/or the compensation committee of CBPO, as applicable. Equity awards are designed to provide long-term compensation based on CBPO’s performance, as reflected in the value of the shares of the CBPO’s common stock underlying the equity compensation compared to the purchase price of those shares, if any.

(5) Others

As confirmed by CBPO, CBPO did not have any contingent liability or charge on asset or carry out any hedging activity for the three years ended 31 December 2016 and the six months ended 30 June 2017.

4. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE CBPO GROUP

For the purpose of this section only, unless the context requires otherwise, references to the ‘‘Company’’, ‘‘we’’, ‘‘us’’ and ‘‘our’’ refer to CBPO and references to ‘‘$’’ refer to US$.

  • (1) The following is an extract from the management discussion and analysis of the results of the CBPO Group for the year ended December 31, 2015 from the 2015 annual report of CBPO.

Comparison of years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014

Sales

Our total sales increased by 21.9%, or $53.2 million, to $296.5 million for 2015, compared to $243.3 million for 2014, primarily due to increases in the sales volumes of human albumin and human immunoglobulin for intravenous injection (the ‘‘IVIG’’). Excluding the foreign exchange impact resulting from the depreciation of the RMB against the U.S. dollar, our sales would have increased by 23.4% for 2015 as compared to 2014. Such increase of sales was mainly due to the increase in sales volume in major plasma products.

For 2015 as compared to 2014:

  • . the average price for our approved human albumin products, which represented 37.6% of our total sales, remained stable and, excluding the foreign exchange effect, their average price in RMB increased by approximately 1.3%; and

  • . the average price for our approved IVIG products, which represented 42.2% of our total sales, remained stable, and excluding the foreign exchange effect, their average price in RMB increased by approximately 1.2%.

The average sales price of our human albumin and IVIG products increased in RMB term for 2015 as compared to 2014, as a result of the combined effects of the reduced value added tax, or VAT, rate, strong market demand and our sales effort to increase market shares in tier-one cities and new markets. The VAT rate on sales of plasma products was reduced from 6.0% to 3.0%, effective on July 1, 2014. The reduction in the VAT rate had a positive impact on our sales prices as our sales are recognized as the invoiced price of the products sold minus VAT. All other factors being equal, the reduction in the VAT rate had the effect of increasing our sales price of plasma products by 2.9%. Excluding this impact, the average sales price of our human albumin and IVIG products in RMB term would have remained stable in 2015 as compared to 2014. The average sales price of our human albumin and IVIG products increased slightly in RMB term in response to the strong market demand following the removal of the retail price ceilings for drug products, effective on June 1, 2015. This increase is partially offset by our effort to increase the market share of our human albumin products and IVIG products in tier-one cities and new markets in 2015, whereby we increased sales to distributors with lower invoiced prices compared to direct sales to hospitals and inoculation centers.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE CBPO GROUP

APPENDIX IV

The sales volume of our products depends on market demand and our production volume. The production volume of our human albumin products and IVIG products depends primarily on the general plasma supply. The production volume of our hyper-immune products, which include human rabies immunoglobulin, human hepatitis B immunoglobulin and human tetanus immunoglobulin products, is subject to the availability of specific vaccinated plasma and our production capacity. The supply of specific vaccinated plasma requires several months of lead time. Our production facility currently can only accommodate the production of one type of hyperimmune products at any given time and we rotate the production of different types of hyperimmune products from time to time in response to market demand. As such, the sales volume of any given type of hyper-immune products may vary significantly from period to period.

The sales volume of our human albumin products increased by 16.6% for 2015 as compared to 2014, as a result of the increased production volume at Shandong Taibang and Guizhou Taibang. The sales volume of our IVIG products increased by 27.0% for 2015 as compared to 2014, mainly due to the increased sales through distributors in tier-one cities and new markets supported by the increased output following the production resumption at Guizhou Taibang in March 2014. Further, in anticipation of a favorable market environment and our increased sales capabilities this year, we reserved a large volume of IVIG pastes from previous years to be processed and sold in early 2015, which also contributed to our increased sales volume in 2015.

The sales increase of other immunoglobulin products for 2015 as compared to 2014 was mainly attributable to the increase in average sales price of human tetanus immunoglobulin products. The increase in average sales price of human tetanus immunoglobulin products was primarily due to the strong market demand coupled by the removal of the retail price ceiling for drug products effective on June 1, 2015.

The sales increase of placenta polypeptide products was generally in line with the volume increase for 2015 as compared to 2014. The sales volume of placenta polypeptide products increased by 12.8% for 2015 as compared to 2014, primarily due to the ramp-up of the production capacities for placenta polypeptide at Guizhou Taibang after receiving the GMP certification for the upgraded production facilities in January 2014.

The sales increase of other products for 2015 as compared to 2014 was mainly due to the increase in sales volume of both factor VIII and PCC.

Our cost of sales was $106.5 million, or 35.9% of our sales, for 2015, as compared to $80.0 million, or 32.9% of our sales for 2014. Our gross profit was $190.0 million and $163.2 million for 2015 and 2014, respectively, representing gross margins of 64.1% and 67.1%, respectively. Excluding the sales of the products derived from raw plasma outsourced from Xinjiang Deyuan, whose cost is moderately higher than plasma from our own collection stations, our gross margin would have been 65.4% for 2015. Our cost of sales and gross margin are affected by the volume and pricing of our finished products, raw material costs, production mix and yields, inventory impairments, production cycles and routine maintenance costs.

The increase in cost of sales for 2015 as compared to 2014 was generally in line with the increases in sales volume and cost of plasma. In an effort to increase plasma collection volume and expand our donor base, we increased the nutrition fees paid to donors consistent with the industry practice. We expect the nutrition fees to be paid to donors continue to increase as a result of improving living standards in China. Consequently, future improvements on margins will need to be derived from increases in product pricing, product mix, yields and manufacturing efficiency. The increase in cost of sales as a percentage of sales for 2015 as compared to 2014 was mainly due to the increase in cost of plasma partially offset by the increase in the average sales price of major plasma products.

Our total operating expenses increased by $5.3 million, or 10.2%, to $57.4 million for 2015 from $52.1 million for 2014. As a percentage of total sales, total expenses decreased by 2.0% to 19.4% for 2015 from 21.4% for 2014. The operating expenses for 2014 included a provision of $5.1 million for all the receivables in respect of an employee housing development project at Shandong Taibang as discussed below. Excluding the effect of this provision, our operating expenses increased by $10.4 million, or 22.1%, for 2015 as compared to 2014, primarily due to the combined effect of the increase of the general and administrative expenses and research and development expenses and the decrease of selling expenses as discussed below.

For 2015, our selling expenses decreased by $0.7 million, or 6.5%, to $10.0 million from $10.7 million for 2014. As a percentage of total sales, our selling expenses for 2015 decreased by 1.0% to 3.4% from 4.4% for 2014. The decrease was mainly due to the decreased selling expense of placenta polypeptide for 2015 as compared to 2014. We began to utilize internal resources instead of third-party service providers to promote sales of placenta polypeptide products, and did not renew a third-party engagement upon its expiration in May 2014.

For 2015, our research and development expenses increased by $1.8, or 42.9%, to $6.0 million from $4.2 million for 2014. In 2015 and 2014, we received government grants totaling $1.2 million and $2.1 million respectively and recognized them as a reduction of research and development expenses. Excluding this impact, our research and development expenses increased by $0.9 million for 2015 from 2014. As a percentage of total sales, our research and development expenses, excluding the impact of the government grants, decreased by 0.2% to 2.4% for 2015 from 2.6% for 2014. The increase of our research and development expenses was mainly due to the expenditures paid for certain clinical trial programs in 2015.

Provision for other receivables in respect of an employee housing development project

In 2014, we made a full provision of $5.1 million for all the receivables in respect of an employee housing development project at Shandong Taibang because it became probable that these receivables may not be recoverable after all legal means of collection were exhausted.

Equity in (loss) income of equity method investee

Our equity method investment represented our 35.0% equity interest in Huitian, our equity method investee. For 2015, our equity in (loss) income of equity method investee decreased by $9.9 million to a loss of $1.3 million from income of $8.6 million for 2014. Huitian suspended its production and began to construct a new production facility to meet the new GMP standard in late 2013. Huitian incurred operation losses during the suspension period in 2015 as it did not commence production at its new facility until February 2016. In 2014, Huitian disposed a subsidiary, recognizing a gain of RMB116.7 million (approximately $19.0 million).

Our provision for income taxes decreased by $5.6 million, or 21.1%, to $21.0 million for 2015 from $26.6 million for 2014. For 2014, we incurred the dividend withholding income tax of $8.9 million in respect of the dividends declared or to be declared by Shandong Taibang. With our plan to reinvest Shandong Taibang’s earnings in its business operations, we no longer incurred dividend withholding income tax in respect of Shandong Taibang since 2015 following an internal corporate restructuring.

Excluding the impact of dividend withholding income tax, our effective income tax rates were 15.5% and 14.4% for 2015 and 2014, respectively. The statutory tax rate applicable to our major operating subsidiaries in the PRC for 2015 and 2014 was 15.0%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

To date, we have financed our operations primarily through cash flows from operations, augmented by bank borrowings and equity contributions by our stockholders. As of December 31, 2015, we had $144.9 million in cash and cash equivalents, primarily consisting of cash on hand and demand deposits, and $38.0 million in time deposits.

operations were mainly in line with the improvements in our results of operations in 2015 and 2014, partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable and inventories during the relevant years.

Accounts receivable

Our average collection speed of accounts receivable slowed down slightly in 2015 as compared to 2014. The accounts receivable turnover days for plasma products were 34 days, 31 days, and 30 days for 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively. The increase in turnover days for 2015 was primarily due to the extended credit terms granted to certain distributors for human rabies immunoglobulin products. In 2015, we adjusted our sales strategy by granting extended credit terms to certain qualified distributors of human rabies immunoglobulin products to assist in their bidding efforts with provincial centers for disease control and prevention. In prior years, these distributors were required to make the payments in advance of our product deliveries. Excluding this impact, the turnover days would have been 32 days for both 2015 and 2014.

Inventories

Cash outflows for inventories increased in both 2015 and 2014. The increases in inventory for 2015, 2014 and 2013 were $32.1, $13.4 million and $10.4 million, respectively. As compared to 2014, the increase of inventories in 2015 was mainly attributable to the source plasma and plasma pastes purchased from Xinjiang Deyuan. As compared to 2013, the increase of inventories in 2014 was mainly attributable to an increase in work-in-process and finished goods at Guizhou Taibang following its resumption of production in March 2014 and, to a lesser extent, an increase in raw materials consistent with our expanded plasma collection volume.

Investing activities

Cash outflows from investing activities for 2015 was $89.8 million, as compared to $13.4 million and $25.6 million for 2014 and 2013, respectively. In 2015, we paid $52.3 million for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and land use rights and provided a long-term loan of $40.7 million to Xinjiang Deyuan, partially offset by government grants of $2.5 million in connection with our purchase of property, plant and equipment.

In 2014, we paid $21.9 million for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and land use rights, partially offset by a $1.6 million refund of deposits from the local government due to a decrease in the size of a land parcel purchased by Guizhou Taibang and proceeds of $6.6 million from the maturity of a time deposit made in 2013.

In 2013, we paid $21.8 million for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and land use right, partially offset by a $2.1 million refund of deposits from the local government due to a decrease in the size of a land parcel purchased by Guizhou Taibang.

Financing activities

Cash inflows from financing activities for 2015 totaled $51.6 million, as compared to cash outflows from financing activities totaled $142.8 million and $38.5 million for 2014 and 2013, respectively. Cash inflows from financing activities in 2015 mainly consisted of net proceeds of $80.6 million from a follow-on offering of our company’s common stock in June 2015, proceeds of $63.2 million from the maturity of deposits used as security for bank loans, proceeds of $15.8 million from a short-term bank loan and proceeds of $7.7 million from stock options exercised, partially offset by repayments of bank loans totaling $113.5 million and a dividend of $3.7 million held in escrow by a trial court in connection with disputes with a minority shareholder of Guizhou Taibang.

Cash outflows from financing activities in 2014 mainly consisted of a payment of $86.8 million for acquisition of noncontrolling interest in Guizhou Taibang, a dividend payment of $8.8 million by our subsidiaries to noncontrolling interest shareholders and a payment of $70.0 million for repurchase of shares from an individual stockholder, partially offset by proceeds of $33.2 million from a follow-on offering of our company’s common stock.

Cash outflows from financing activities in 2013 mainly consisted of a payment of $29.6 million for share repurchase and a dividend payment of $16.9 million by our subsidiaries to the noncontrolling interest shareholders.

Management believes that our company has sufficient cash on hand and will continue to have positive cash inflow for its operations from the sale of its products in the PRC market.

Seasonality of our Sales

Our operating results and operating cash flows historically have not been subject to seasonal variations. This pattern may change, however, as a result of new market opportunities or new product introductions.

Inflation

Inflation does not materially affect our business or the results of our operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to our investors.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or U.S. GAAP, requires our management to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements, including the notes thereto, and related disclosures of commitments and contingencies, if any. We consider our critical accounting policies to be those that require the more significant judgments and estimates in the preparation of financial statements, including the following:

Use of estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangibles with definite lives, the allowances for doubtful accounts, the fair value determinations of equity instruments and stock compensation awards, the realizability of deferred tax assets and inventories, the recoverability of intangible assets, land use rights, property, plant and equipment, equity method investment and loan receivable, and accruals for income tax uncertainties and other contingencies. The current economic environment has increased the degree of uncertainty inherent in those estimates and assumptions.

Allowance for doubtful accounts

We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses inherent in its accounts receivable portfolio. In establishing the required allowance, management considers historical losses, the customers’ financial condition, the amount of accounts receivable in dispute, the accounts

– IV-142 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE CBPO GROUP

APPENDIX IV

receivable aging and customers’ payment patterns. We review our allowance for doubtful accounts monthly. Past due balances are reviewed individually for collectability. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. We do not have any off-balance-sheet credit exposure related to our customers.

We generally ask our distributors to pay in advance before we deliver products, with few exceptions for a credit period of no longer than 60 days. For hospitals and clinics, depending on the relationship and the creditability, we generally grant a credit period of no longer than 90 days with exceptions to customers, which we believe are credit worthy, of up to six months. We have provided a bad debt allowance of $34,902, $6,211 and $31,567 respectively for 2015, 2014 and 2013. Due to recovery of bad debt that we previously provided an allowance, the recoveries of bad debt provision was nil, $30,673 and nil for 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Adjustments are recorded to write down the carrying amount of any obsolete and excess inventory to its estimated net realizable value based on historical and forecasted demand.

We review the inventory periodically for possible obsolete goods and cost in excess of net realizable value to determine if any reserves are necessary. Provisions to write-down the carrying amount of obsolete inventory to its estimated net realizable value amounted to $76,587, $324,584 and nil for 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and were recorded as cost of sales in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

Long-lived assets

Long-lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment, and purchased intangible asset subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If circumstances require a long-lived asset or asset group be tested for possible impairment, we first compares undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by that asset or asset group to its carrying value. If the carrying value of the long-lived asset or asset group is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, an impairment is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds its fair value. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third-party independent appraisals, as considered necessary.

Sales

Our total sales increased by 15.1%, or $44.7 million, to $341.2 million for 2016, compared to $296.5 million for 2015. In RMB terms, which is a non-GAAP measure, our total sales increased by 22.8% for 2016 as compared to 2015. The increase in sales for 2016 was primarily attributable to the increase in the sales price of human tetanus immunoglobulin products and the increase in the sales volume of human albumin products, placenta polypeptide and human tetanus immunoglobulin products, partially offset by the decrease in the sales volume of IVIG products.

The average sales price of our human albumin and IVIG products increased in RMB term for 2016 as compared to 2015, following the removal of the retail price ceiling for drug products effective on June 1, 2015, owing to the increased market demand for human albumin and IVIG products.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE CBPO GROUP

APPENDIX IV

The sales volume of our products depends on market demand and our production volume. The production volume of our human albumin products and IVIG products depends primarily on the general plasma supply. The production volume of our hyper-immune products, which include human rabies immunoglobulin, human hepatitis B immunoglobulin and human tetanus immunoglobulin products, is subject to the availability of specific vaccinated plasma and our production capacity. The supply of specific vaccinated plasma requires several months of lead time. Our production facility currently can only accommodate the production of one type of hyperimmune products at any given time and we rotate the production of different types of hyperimmune products from time to time in response to market demand. As such, the sales volume of any given type of hyper-immune products may vary significantly from period to period.

The sales volume of our human albumin products increased by 26.2% for 2016 as compared to 2015, which was primarily attributable to the increased production volume at Shandong Taibang and Guizhou Taibang as a result of increased plasma supply volume. The sales volume of our IVIG products decreased by 3.6% for 2016 as compared to 2015, primarily due to the depletion of IVIG pastes we reserved from prior years that were processed and sold in 2015 and the allocation of more production facilities to human tetanus immunoglobulin products with higher margin in 2016.

The sales increase of other immunoglobulin products for 2016 as compared to 2015 was mainly attributable to the increase in both average sales price and sales volume of human tetanus immunoglobulin products. The sales volume of our human tetanus immunoglobulin increased by 41.9% for 2016 as compared to 2015. The average sales price of human tetanus immunoglobulin products increased significantly for 2016 as compared to 2015 due to the significant market supply shortage following the removal of the retail price ceiling for drug products effective on June 1, 2015.

The sales increase of placenta polypeptide products was generally in line with the sales volume increase for 2016 as compared to 2015. The sales volume of placenta polypeptide products increased by 22.6% for 2016 as compared to 2015, primarily because we increased our market penetration into more hospitals through our improved sales capabilities.

The sales increase of other products for 2016 as compared to 2015 was mainly due to the increase in sales volume of both factor VIII and PCC, sales of which we ramped up in 2016.

Our cost of sales was $124.0 million, or 36.4% of our sales, for 2016, as compared to $106.5 million, or 35.9% of our sales for 2015. Our gross profit was $217.1 million and $190.0 million for 2016 and 2015, respectively, representing gross margins of 63.6% and 64.1%, respectively.

Our cost of sales and gross margin are affected by the product pricing, raw material costs, product mix, yields and manufactory efficiency. In an effort to increase plasma collection volume and expand our donor base, we increased the nutrition fees paid to donors consistent with the industry practice. We expect the nutrition fees to be paid to donors will continue to increase as a result of improving living standards in China. Consequently, future improvements on margins will need to be derived from increases in product pricing, yields and manufacturing efficiency, as well as from optimizing the product mix.

The increase of cost of sales was mainly due to the increases in the sales volume of human albumin products, placenta polypeptide products and human tetanus immunoglobulin products, which was partially offset by the decrease in the sales volume of IVIG products. The increase in cost of sales as a percentage of sales for 2016 as compared to 2015 was mainly due to the higher cost of plasma purchased from Xinjiang Deyuan, which was partially offset by the increase in the average sales price of certain plasma products and a more profitable product mix.

For 2016, our research and development expenses increased by $1.0 million, or 16.7%, to $7.0 million from $6.0 million for 2015. In 2016 and 2015, we received government grants totaling $0.8 million and $1.2 million, respectively, and recognized them as a reduction of research and development expenses. Excluding this impact, our non-GAAP research and development expenses increased by $0.6 million for 2016 from 2015. As a percentage of total sales, our non-GAAP research and development expenses, excluding the impact of these recognized government grants, decreased by 0.1% to 2.3% for 2016 from 2.4% for 2015.

Equity in (loss) income of equity method investee

Our equity method investment represented our 35.0% equity interest in Huitian, our equity method investee. For 2016, our equity in income (loss) of equity method investee increased by $3.8 million to a gain of $2.5 million from a loss of $1.3 million for 2015. Huitian suspended its production and began to construct a new production facility to meet the new GMP standard in late 2013. Huitian incurred operation losses during the suspension period in 2015 as it did not commence production at its new facility until February 2016.

Our effective income tax rates were 16.3% and 15.5% for 2016 and 2015, respectively. The increase of effective income tax rate was mainly due to that on a percentage basis, greater losses were generated by China Biologic in U.S. for 2016 as compared to 2015, most of which were provided valuation allowance.

Foreign Currency Exchange Impact

All of our consolidated revenues and consolidated costs of sales and majority of expenses, as well as all of our assets (except for certain cash balances) are denominated in RMB, whereas our reporting currency is U.S. dollars. As a result, we are exposed to foreign exchange risk as our revenues and results of operations may be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between U.S. dollars and RMB. For details, see ‘‘Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk — Foreign Exchange Risk.’’

Given that our operations are primarily in China, we evaluate certain key items of our financial results on a local currency basis (i.e., in RMB) in addition to the reporting currency (i.e., in USD). The local currency presentation, which is a non-GAAP measure, excludes the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We believe providing local currency information on such key items enhances the understanding of our financial results and evaluation of performance in comparison to prior periods. We calculate changes in local currency percentages by comparing financial results denominated in RMB from period to period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

To date, we have financed our operations primarily through cash flows from operations, augmented by bank borrowings and equity contributions by our stockholders. As of December 31, 2016, we had $183.8 million in cash and cash equivalents, primarily consisting of cash on hand and demand deposits.

The following table sets forth a summary of our cash flows for the periods indicated:

Operating activities

Cash inflows from operating activities totaled $123.3 million in 2016, $109.4 million in 2015, and $93.5 million in 2014. Cash inflows increased by $13.9 million in 2016 as compared to 2015 and increased by $15.9 million in 2015 as compared to 2014. Such increases in cash inflows from operations were mainly in line with the improvements in our results of operations in 2016 and 2015, partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable and inventories during the relevant years.

Accounts receivable

Our average collection speed of accounts receivable slowed down slightly in 2016 as compared to 2015. The accounts receivable turnover days for plasma products were 41 days, 34 days, and 31 days for 2016, 2015, and 2014, respectively. The increase in turnover days for 2016 was primarily due to the extended credit terms granted to certain qualified hospitals in 2016 for enhancing our business relationship with certain key customers. In 2015, we adjusted our sales strategy by granting extended credit terms to certain qualified distributors of human rabies immunoglobulin products to assist in their bidding efforts with provincial centers for disease control and prevention. In prior years, these distributors were required to make the payments in advance of our product deliveries.

Inventories

Cash outflows for inventories increased in both 2016 and 2015. The increases in inventory for 2016, 2015 and 2014 were $40.1, $32.1 million and $13.4 million, respectively. The increase of inventories in 2016 as compared to 2015 was mainly attributable to the increase in source plasma purchased from Xinjiang Deyuan as well as the increase of finished goods in preparation for Shandong Taibang’s facility transition. The increase of inventories in 2015 as compared to 2014 was mainly attributable to the source plasma and plasma pastes purchased from Xinjiang Deyuan.

Investing activities

Cash outflows from investing activities for 2016 was $52.5 million, as compared to $89.8 million and $13.4 million for 2015 and 2014, respectively. In 2016, we paid $51.0 million for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and land use rights and provided loans of $12.3 million to Xinjiang Deyuan, which was partially offset by a $10.3 million refund of deposits on land use rights from the local government.

In 2015, we paid $52.3 million for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and land use rights and provided a long-term loan of $40.7 million to Xinjiang Deyuan, which was partially offset by government grants of $2.5 million in connection with our purchase of property, plant and equipment.

– IV-150 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE CBPO GROUP

APPENDIX IV

In 2014, we paid $21.9 million for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and land use rights, which was partially offset by a $1.6 million refund of deposits from the local government due to a decrease in the size of a land parcel purchased by Guizhou Taibang and proceeds of $6.6 million from the maturity of a time deposit made in 2013.

Financing activities

Cash outflows from financing activities for 2016 totaled $22.1 million, as compared to cash inflows from financing activities totaled $51.6 million and cash outflows from financing activities totaled $142.8 million for 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Cash outflows from financing activities in 2016 mainly consisted of payment of $58.1 million to the former minority shareholders of Guizhou Taibang in connection with their capital withdrawal from Guizhou Taibang (See Item 3 ‘‘Legal Proceedings’’) and a dividend payment of $7.9 million by our subsidiary to noncontrolling interest shareholder, partially offset by the maturity of a $37.8 million time deposit as a security for a bank loan that was fully repaid in June 2015 and proceeds of $3.6 million from stock option exercised.

Cash inflows from financing activities in 2015 mainly consisted of net proceeds of $80.6 million from a follow-on offering of our company’s common stock in June 2015, proceeds of $63.2 million from the maturity of deposits used as security for bank loans, proceeds of $15.8 million from a short-term bank loan and proceeds of $7.7 million from stock options exercised, partially offset by repayments of bank loans totaling $113.5 million and a dividend of $3.7 million held in escrow by a trial court in connection with disputes with a minority shareholder of Guizhou Taibang.

Cash outflows from financing activities in 2014 mainly consisted of a payment of $86.8 million for acquisition of noncontrolling interest in Guizhou Taibang, a dividend payment of $8.8 million by our subsidiaries to noncontrolling interest shareholders and a payment of $70.0 million for repurchase of shares from an individual stockholder, partially offset by proceeds of $33.2 million from a follow-on offering of our company’s common stock.

Management believes that our company has sufficient cash on hand and will continue to have positive cash inflow for its operations from the sale of its products in the PRC market.

Seasonality of our Sales

Our operating results and operating cash flows historically have not been subject to seasonal variations. This pattern may change, however, as a result of new market opportunities or new product introductions.

Inflation

Inflation does not materially affect our business or the results of our operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to our investors.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or U.S. GAAP, requires our management to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements, including the notes thereto, and related disclosures of commitments and contingencies, if any. We consider our critical accounting policies to be those that require the more significant judgments and estimates in the preparation of financial statements, including the following:

Use of estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual

– IV-152 –

APPENDIX IV

results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangibles with definite lives, the allowances for doubtful accounts, the fair value determinations of equity instruments and stock compensation awards, the realizability of deferred tax assets and inventories, the recoverability of intangible assets, land use rights, property, plant and equipment, equity method investment and loan receivable, and accruals for income tax uncertainties and other contingencies. The current economic environment has increased the degree of uncertainty inherent in those estimates and assumptions.

Allowance for doubtful accounts

We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses inherent in its accounts receivable portfolio. In establishing the required allowance, management considers historical losses, the customers’ financial condition, the amount of accounts receivable in dispute, the accounts receivable aging and customers’ payment patterns. We review our allowance for doubtful accounts monthly. Past due balances are reviewed individually for collectability. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. We do not have any off-balance-sheet credit exposure related to our customers.

We generally ask our distributors to pay in advance before we deliver products, with few exceptions for a credit period of no longer than 60 days. For hospitals and clinics, depending on the relationship and the creditability, we generally grant a credit period of no longer than 90 days with exceptions to customers, which we believe are credit worthy, of up to six months. We have provided a bad debt allowance of $123,239, $34,902 and $6,211 respectively for 2016, 2015 and 2014. Due to recovery of bad debt that we previously provided an allowance, the recoveries of bad debt provision was nil, nil and $30,673 for 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Adjustments are recorded to write down the carrying amount of any obsolete and excess inventory to its estimated net realizable value based on historical and forecasted demand.

We review the inventory periodically for possible obsolete goods and cost in excess of net realizable value to determine if any reserves are necessary. Provisions to write-down the carrying amount of obsolete inventory to its estimated net realizable value amounted to $256,862, $76,587 and $324,584 for 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and were recorded as cost of sales in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

Long-lived assets

Long-lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment, and purchased intangible asset subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If circumstances require a

long-lived asset or asset group be tested for possible impairment, we first compares undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by that asset or asset group to its carrying value. If the carrying value of the long-lived asset or asset group is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, an impairment is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds its fair value. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third-party independent appraisals, as considered necessary.

  • (3) The following is an extract from the management discussion and analysis of the results of the CBPO Group for the six months ended June 30, 2017 from the quarterly report of CBPO for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2017.

Comparison of Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016

Sales

Our sales increased by $3.7 million, or 2.1%, to $180.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to $177.0 million for the same period in 2016. In RMB terms, our total sales increased by 7.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016. The increase in sales in RMB terms for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was primarily attributable to the sales increase in placenta polypeptide products, certain hyper-immune products and human albumin.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2016:

  • . the average price for our approved human albumin products, which accounted for 38.3% of our total sales for the six months ended June 30, 2017, decreased by 1.9% and 6.8% in RMB term and in USD term, respectively, mainly due to the combined effect of both a decrease in price we charged certain distributors reflective of intensified market competition and a lower sales proportion from the higher-unit-price dosages; and

  • . the average price for our approved IVIG products, which accounted for 34.0% of our total sales for the six months ended June 30, 2017, increased by 2.3% in RMB term and decreased by 2.8% in USD term mainly due to an increase in price we charged the company’s major distributors.

The sales volume of human albumin products increased by 5.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016, primarily due to enhanced production and sales volume at Guizhou Taibang as a result of increased plasma supply volume. The sales volume of IVIG products decreased by 2.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016, primarily due to a high comparison base in the six months period ended June 30, 2016 when we sold the IVIG products processed from the approximately 143 tonnes of source plasma and plasma pastes outsourced from Xinjiang Deyuan in 2015.

Revenue from hyper-immune products, which were included in other immunoglobulin products, increased by 26.1% in USD term for the six months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016, mainly attributable to an increase in sales of human rabies immunoglobulin, reflecting our enhanced production volume in response to a strong market demand.

Revenue from placenta polypeptide products increased by 23.5% and 17.5% in RMB term and USD term, respectively, reaching 10.8% of total sales, for the six months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016, attributable to higher-than-normal product sales volume in the first quarter of 2017 possibly in anticipation of the nationwide implementation of a two-invoice policy system which will potentially result in a higher billing price for distributors in the future.

Revenue from human coagulation factor VIII and human prothrombin complex concentrate, which are included in other plasma products, increased by 29.3% and 22.9% in RMB term and USD term, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016, reflecting our continued medical marketing activities, representing at 5.3% of total sales for the six months period ended June 30, 2017.

Our cost of sales was $62.3 million, or 34.5% of our sales for the six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to $65.5 million, or 37.0% of our sales for the same period in 2016. Our gross profit was $118.4 million and $111.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, representing gross margins of 65.5% and 63.0%, respectively.

The decrease in cost of sales as a percentage of sales for the six months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016 was mainly due to greater sales proportion of highermargin hyper-immune products and placenta polypeptide products, as well as lower sales proportion of the high-cost outsourced raw plasma.

Our provision for income taxes increased by $0.2 million, or 1.5%, to $13.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017, from $13.6 million for the same period in 2016. Our effective income tax rate was 16.6% and 16.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The difference between the effective income tax rates and statutory income tax rate of 25% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was primarily due to the application of a preferential tax rate of 15% to both Guizhou Taibang and Shandong Taibang in 2017 and 2016, which was partially offset by valuation allowances against the deferred tax assets of China Biologic in the U.S. relating to operating losses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

To date, we have financed our operations primarily through cash flows from operations, supplemented by bank borrowings and equity contributions by our shareholders. As of June 30, 2017, we had $223.2 million in cash and cash equivalents, primarily consisting of demand deposits.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $36.9 million, as compared to $57.0 million for the same period in 2016. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to the increases in accounts receivable and inventories.

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable increased by $26.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to $13.9 million in the same period of 2016. The accounts receivable turnover days for plasma products increased to 51 days during the first half year of 2017 from 35 days in the first half year of 2016. The increased turnover days are combined results of a higher percentage of direct sales and a higher concentration on large hospital customers and distributor customers that typically request longer credit terms.

Inventories

Inventories increased by $22.8 million in the six months period ended June 30, 2017, mainly comprising of outsourced and our self-collected raw material plasma increase. This increase was higher than the inventory increase of $12.5 million in the same quarter of 2016, mainly because we had to stockpile sufficient inventories in preparation for the planned temporary production suspension at our Shandong facility.

Investing Activities

Our use of cash for investing activities was primarily for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment and a long-term loan to a third party.

APPENDIX IV

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE CBPO GROUP

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $16.6 million, as compared to $26.3 million for the same period in 2016. During the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, we paid $16.6 million and $26.6 million, respectively, for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment, land use rights and intangible assets for Shandong Taibang and Guizhou Taibang. In addition, during the six months ended June 30, 2016, we granted a loan of $6.3 million to Xinjiang Deyuan pursuant to a cooperation agreement we entered into with Xinjiang Deyuan in August 2015.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $14.8 million, as compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $32.2 million for the same period in 2016. The net cash provided by financing activities in the six months period ended June 30, 2017 mainly consisted of $14.3 million short-term loan net proceeds. The net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2016 mainly consisted of $2.4 million proceeds from the exercise of stock options and the maturity of a $37.8 million time deposit as a security collateral for a 24-month loan which was fully repaid in June 2015, partially offset by a dividend of $7.9 million paid to the noncontrolling shareholder by Shandong Taibang.

Management believes that our company has sufficient cash on hand and will continue to have positive cash inflow for its operations from the sale of its products in the PRC market.

APPENDIX IV

Inflation

Inflation does not materially affect our business or the results of our operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to our investors.

Critical Accounting Policies

Critical accounting policies are those we believe are most important to portraying our financial conditions and results of operations and also require the greatest amount of subjective or complex judgments by management. Judgments and uncertainties regarding the application of these policies may result in materially different amounts being reported under various conditions or different assumptions being used. There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.

As part of this process, the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information is prepared based on (i) the Group’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows has been extracted by the directors from the Group’s financial statements for the period ended 30 June 2017 and for the year ended 31

DIRECTORS’ RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The directors are responsible for compiling the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information in accordance with paragraph 4.29 of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the ‘‘Listing Rules’’) and with reference to Accounting Guideline 7 Preparation of Pro Forma Financial Information for Inclusion in Investment Circulars (‘‘AG 7’’) issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (‘‘HKICPA’’).

OUR INDEPENDENCE AND QUALITY CONTROL

We have complied with the independence and other ethical requirements of the Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants issued by the HKICPA, which is founded on fundamental principles of integrity, objectivity, professional competence and due care, confidentiality and professional behaviour.

Our firm applies Hong Kong Standard on Quality Control 1 issued by the HKICPA and accordingly maintains a comprehensive system of quality control including documented policies and procedures regarding compliance with ethical requirements, professional standards and applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

REPORTING ACCOUNTANT’S RESPONSIBILITIES

Our responsibility is to express an opinion, as required by paragraph 4.29(7) of the Listing Rules, on the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information and to report our opinion to you. We do not accept any responsibility for any reports previously given by us on any financial information used in the compilation of the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information beyond that owed to those to whom those reports were addressed by us at the dates of their issue.

We conducted our engagement in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Assurance Engagements 3420, Assurance Engagements to Report on the Compilation of Pro Forma Financial Information Included in a Prospectus, issued by the HKICPA. This standard requires that the reporting accountant plans and performs procedures to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the directors have compiled the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information in accordance with paragraph 4.29 of the Listing Rules and with reference to AG 7 issued by the HKICPA.

For purposes of this engagement, we are not responsible for updating or reissuing any reports or opinions on any historical financial information used in compiling the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information, nor have we, in the course of this engagement, performed an audit or review of the financial information used in compiling the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information.

APPENDIX V

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE NEW GROUP

The purpose of unaudited pro forma financial information included in a circular is solely to illustrate the impact of a significant event or transaction on unadjusted financial information of the entity as if the event had occurred or the transaction had been undertaken at an earlier date selected for purposes of the illustration. Accordingly, we do not provide any assurance that the actual outcome of the Transaction at 30 June 2017 or 31 December 2016 would have been as presented.

A reasonable assurance engagement to report on whether the unaudited pro forma financial information has been properly compiled on the basis of the applicable criteria involves performing procedures to assess whether the applicable criteria used by the directors in the compilation of the unaudited pro forma financial information provide a reasonable basis for presenting the significant effects directly attributable to the event or transaction, and to obtain sufficient appropriate evidence about whether:

  • . The related pro forma adjustments give appropriate effect to those criteria; and

  • . The unaudited pro forma financial information reflects the proper application of those adjustments to the unadjusted financial information.

The procedures selected depend on the reporting accountant’s judgment, having regard to the reporting accountant’s understanding of the nature of the company, the event or transaction in respect of which the unaudited pro forma financial information has been compiled, and other relevant engagement circumstances.

The engagement also involves evaluating the overall presentation of the unaudited pro forma financial information.

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

OPINION

In our opinion:
