To the Shareholders

Dear Sir or Madam,

MAJOR AND CONNECTED TRANSACTION — SWAP AGREEMENT

DISCLOSEABLE AND CONNECTED TRANSACTION — JV AGREEMENT

INTRODUCTION

Reference is made to the announcement of the Company dated 30 September 2013 in relation to the Swap Agreement and the JV Agreement.

On 30 September 2013, Shui On Development (a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company) and the Investor entered into the Swap Agreement, pursuant to which, amongst other things, (i) the Investor has agreed to transfer the Group Company Shares to Shui On Development; and (ii) Shui On Development has agreed to transfer the Portspin Shares to Taipingqiao 116.

* For identification purposes only

— 6 —

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

As a result of the Swap Agreement, the Investor shall effectively transfer to Shui On Development its minority interest in three projects, namely Rui Hong Xin Cheng (Rainbow City) in Shanghai, Wuhan Tiandi and Chongqing Tiandi (which are currently joint venture projects between the Investor and Shui On Development, with Shui On Development as the majority shareholder). In return, Shui On Development shall transfer to the Investor its 51% majority interest in the TPQ116 project.

On the basis of information available to the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date, the shortfall amount payable by the Investor to Shui On Development under the Swap Agreement would be approximately RMB1,008,199,628. On 30 September 2013, Shui On Development, Taipingqiao 116 and Portspin entered into the JV Agreement in relation to Portspin, pursuant to which Shui On Development and Taipingqiao 116 shall, upon Completion under the Swap Agreement, form a joint venture in respect of Portspin. Under the JV Agreement, the shortfall amount under the Swap Agreement will be deemed contribution to Portspin by Shui On Development, upon which Shui On Development shall acquire approximately 18.9% interest in Portspin, with the remaining interest to be held by Taipingqiao 116. The JV Completion is conditional upon Completion under the Swap Agreement and will occur immediately following Completion at the location at which Completion takes place. Therefore, JV Completion would occur simultaneously with Completion, and JV Completion would not occur without Completion and vice versa.

As Shui On Development has a strong track record as a developer in the PRC and has previously managed the clearance and was involved in the pre-development work of TPQ116, TPD has requested Shui On Development form a joint-venture with them to develop TPQ116. The JV Agreement was entered into between the parties in relation to Portspin, whereby Shui On Development can continue to act as the developer of TPQ116, and Taipingqiao 116 can act as the investor in TPQ116 for the development of a residential complex (including a clubhouse) and car parking spaces. Under the JV Agreement, as a minority shareholder of Portspin, Shui On Development will retain considerable control over the budget and development of the project. After the JV Completion, Taipingqiao 116 shall have a right to sell shares in Portspin with a value of US$90 million to Shui On Development, which would have the effect of increasing Shui On Development’s shareholding in Portspin to approximately 29.2%, and Shui On Development shall, upon Taipingqiao 116’s exercise of such option, have a purchase option to acquire further shares in Portspin with a value of US$90 million, which would have the effect of further increasing Shui On Development’s shareholding in Portspin to approximately 39.5%.

The main purpose of this circular is to provide you with, among other things, (i) further information regarding the Swap Agreement and the JV Agreement; (ii) the recommendation from the Independent Board Committee to the Independent Shareholders; (iii) a letter of advice from the Independent Financial Adviser to the Independent Board Committee and Independent Shareholders; (iv) the independent valuation reports on the Target Companies; and (v) additional information as required under the Listing Rules.

  • Post-Completion Audit and Adjustment

Within 90 days after the Completion Date, a post-completion audit on Portspin shall be completed (the “ Post-Completion Audit ”).

The parties may be entitled to terminate the Swap Agreement upon certain events and conditions, including the non-fulfillment (or waiver) of the conditions precedent to Completion, the occurrence of an Unwind Event, the issuance of a Rejection Notice, or a material breach of representations and warranties provided by the parties under the Swap Agreement. If the Swap Agreement is terminated, the Swap Agreement shall have no further effect, provided that the termination shall not affect any accrued rights or liabilities of any party, and the parties shall each revert to the position (legally, financially and otherwise) that they would have been in had the Swap Agreement and the transaction documents contemplated thereby never been entered by the parties.

Basis of Shortfall Amount

The shortfall or surplus amount payable by Shui On Development to Investor or by Investor to Shui On Development for the Acquisition and Disposal under the Swap Agreement is the difference between the TPD Total Portfolio Value and the Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value, as adjusted by RMB19.6 million (representing the Loan Guarantee Fee).

The TPD Total Portfolio Value, being RMB4,348,993,452, was determined based on the valuation of each Group Property as at 31 July 2013 (multiplied by TPD’s effective interest in each Group Property), as adjusted by taking into account other assets, liabilities, onshore minority shareholders’ interests and amount of shareholders’ loan owed to TPD of the Group Companies and Portspin, percentage of TPD’s interest in the Group Companies and Portspin and mutually agreed income tax provision relating to the Group Companies and Portspin.

— 13 —

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

With respect to the valuation of each Group Property as at 31 July 2013, the value of completed properties, properties under development and cleared sites ready for development was determined by the valuation of the Appraiser, and the value for the sites under relocation and future relocation was determined according to book cost, except that those for Wuhan Tiandi and Chongqing Tiandi was determined by the valuation of the Appraiser, since the land costs for such projects had been fixed as agreed with the relevant government authorities.

The Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value, being RMB5,272,914,080, was determined by an independent valuation by the Appraiser of the TPQ116 Cleared Site as at 31 July 2013 of RMB5,261,000,000, as adjusted by taking into account the non-relocation cost with respect to TPQ116 up to 31 July 2013, onshore minority shareholder interest of Portspin, and relevant estimated deed tax and mutually agreed income tax provision relating to Portspin.

Since the Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value plus RMB19.6 million (representing the Loan Guarantee Fee) is higher than the TPD Total Portfolio Value, pursuant to the terms of the Swap Agreement, there is a Shortfall Amount, which is equivalent to RMB943,520,628, being RMB5,272,914,080 plus RMB19,600,000 and minus RMB4,348,993,452. The Shortfall Amount will be adjusted at Completion according to the methodology as set out in the section headed “The Swap Agreement — Shortfall” above. On the basis of information available to the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date, as further described in the section headed “The JV Agreement — Effects on the shareholding in Portspin under the JV Agreement” below, the Company estimates that after adjustment to the Shortfall Amount, the Total Amount would be approximately RMB1,008,199,628.

The Final Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value shall be the Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value, plus non-relocation cost of TPQ116 from 1 August 2013 to the Completion Date, plus assets of Portspin (excluding property, plant and equipment and properties under development) as at Completion Date, minus all liabilities of Portspin (excluding amount due to Shui On Development and its affiliates to the extent assigned to Taipingqiao 116 and amount due to Taipingqiao 116 and affiliates) as at the Completion Date, and as adjusted by the change in onshore minority interest of Portspin as at the Completion Date compared to 31 July 2013.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Taipingqiao 116 will be deemed to contribute an amount equal to the Final Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value less the Contribution Value.

Shares Issuance Upon JV Completion, Taipingqiao 116 shall cause Portspin to issue to Shui On Development new shares calculated as follows:

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Effects on the shareholding in Portspin under the JV Agreement

Based on information available to the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date and the Company’s estimation of the non-relocation costs of TPQ116 from 1 August 2013 to 31 October 2014 of RMB64,679,000, and assuming that no further liabilities are incurred by Portspin as at the Completion Date and no other adjustment to the Shortfall Amount is required to be made pursuant to the methodology described in the section headed “The Swap Agreement — Shortfall” above, the Company estimates that the Total Amount would be approximately RMB1,008,199,628. It represents the sum of the Shortfall Amount of RMB943,520,628 and the adjustment amount of RMB64,679,000. The Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value is estimated to be adjusted by the same amount, and the Final Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value would be approximately RMB5,337,593,080. Hence the Company’s deemed capital contribution of the Total Amount to Portspin pursuant to the terms of the JV Agreement would be equivalent to approximately 18.9% (being RMB1,008,199,628 divided by RMB5,337,593,080) of the total issued share capital of Portspin.

Upon the exercise of the Sale Option, Taipingqiao 116 shall sell shares in Portspin with a value of US$90 million to Shui On Development at the transfer price of US$81 million. Upon the exercise of the Purchase Option, Taipingqiao 116 shall sell further shares in Portspin with a value of US$90 million to Shui On Development at the transfer price of US$81 million. The above share value of US$90 million and transfer price of US$81 million, which effectively provides Shui On Development with a 10% discount on the transfer price based on the share value, were determined based on the commercial decisions of Taipingqiao 116 and Shui On Development after arm’s length negotiations, considering that the Sale Option is only exercisable at Taipingqiao 116’s discretion and the Purchase Option would not be exercisable unless Taipingqiao 116 exercises the Sale Option, the short exercisable period of the Sale Option and the Purchase Option, and the fact that Shui On Development would only be acquiring a minority interest in Portspin upon the exercise of the Sale Option and the Purchase Option. The value of the shares in Portspin to be transferred under the Sale Option and the Purchase Option, which determines the number of shares to be transferred, shall be based on the valuation of the land and properties of the JV Group Companies performed by an independent property valuer.

In the event the Sale Option is exercised by Taipingqiao 116, Shui On Development will acquire shares in Portspin from Taipingqiao 116 of a total value of US$90 million (equivalent to approximately RMB551,322,000, based on the US$ to RMB exchange rate of 1:6.1258). Assuming that the relevant valuation of TPQ116 would be the same as the Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value, Shui On Development will acquire a further 10.3% interest (being RMB551,322,000 divided by RMB5,337,593,080), and Shui On Development’s interest in Portspin would increase to approximately 29.2%. In the event the Purchase Option is exercised by Shui On Development, Shui On Development will acquire further shares in Portspin from Taipingqiao 116 of a total value of US$90 million. Assuming that the relevant valuation of TPQ116 would be the same as the Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value, Shui On Development’s interest in Portspin would further increase by approximately 10.3% to approximately 39.5%.

According to the Company’s estimates, the construction loan likely to be obtained by Portspin and the JV Group Companies shall be sufficient to fund most of the development costs of TPQ116, with the remainder will be supported by pre-sales proceeds. Therefore, it is considered unlikely that there will be any funding shortfall which would require Shui On Development to contribute further funding to support the project. The Company will make a further announcement and comply with shareholders’ approval requirements in the event the Sale Option and/or the Purchase Option is exercised as and when required under the Listing Rules.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Original purchase cost of Investor’s interest in the Group Companies

Pursuant to an agreement dated 19 May 2008, TPD acquired a 25% interest in Foresight Profits from the Group for a total consideration of RMB1,125 million, as described in the announcement of the Company dated 19 May 2008.

Pursuant to an agreement dated 21 August 2008, TPD acquired from the Group a 25% interest in Rightchina for a total consideration of RMB1,021 million, as described in the announcement of the Company dated 21 August 2008.

Pursuant to two agreements dated 29 June 2007, TPD acquired from the Group a 25% interest in Fieldcity Investments for a total consideration RMB1,245 million and a 49% interest in Portspin for a total consideration of RMB363,915,691, as described in the announcement of the Company dated 29 June 2007.

Pursuant to an agreement dated 1 September 2006, TPD acquired a 9.9% interest in Score High from the Group for a total consideration of RMB503,381,555, as described in the prospectus of the Company dated 20 September 2006. To the best of the Company’s understanding, TPD acquired a further 9.9% interest in Score High in 2007 from Ocean Equity Holdings Limited, a third party independent from the Group.

REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF ENTERING INTO THE SWAP AGREEMENT AND THE JV AGREEMENT

Background for entering into the Swap Agreement and the JV Agreement

The Company entered into the Swap Agreement as part of its strategy in restructuring its assets and resources. TPD, to which Trophy Property is the general partner and the company which holds the interests in the Group Companies, has a tenure of seven years, commencing in April 2008, with up to two one-year extensions (which have been approved by TPD’s Advisory Board, taking the tenure to April 2017). TPD has fully invested its capital and has lost its funding capability, while the Group Properties are in continuous need for funding, therefore creating a funding gap. Dilution of TPD’s interest in the Group Properties was the only way to resolve the funding gap before the Swap Agreement was entered into. However, the dilution process is problematic and painfully slow.

According to the master-plan of the Group, the development cycle of its property projects would span across a period of ten years or more. There is a discrepancy between the tenure of TPD and the development cycle of the Group’s property projects according to its master-plan. TPD is unlikely to receive any cash distribution in the short-term and is unlikely to be able to exit these projects within its tenure. Trophy Property, the general partner of TPD, seemingly did not conclude a viable exit plan before investing in the Group Properties.

— 28 —

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

A large portion of the GFA of the projects held by the Group Companies, namely Rui Hong Xin Cheng, Wuhan Tiandi and Chongqing Tiandi, are yet to commence development. Therefore, sales from these projects are not expected to commence before the end of TPD’s tenure. On the other hand, the site of TPQ116 is expected to be cleared by the end of 2013 and development can commence shortly thereafter. As a result, it is expected that revenue can be generated from TPQ116 in the relatively short-term compared to the Group Properties (excluding TPQ116). Therefore, based on arm’s length negotiations between the parties after taking into account the above commercial considerations, the Swap Agreement was entered into in respect of the disposal of Shui On Development’s 51% interest in Portspin to TPD and the acquisition by Shui On Development of TPD’s minority interest in the Group Companies.

Benefits from 100% control in the Group Companies

The entering into of the Swap Agreement would be a mutually beneficial transaction for both the Company and TPD as it allows the Company to continue holding the Group Properties (excluding TPQ116), which would take a longer time to develop and realize a profit than the tenure of TPD, whilst at the same time allowing TPD to exit from its investments in the Group Companies in line with its own terms and tenure .

The Swap Agreement allows the Company to gain 100% control in the Group Companies, thereby strengthening its control and management over the properties held by the Group Companies and providing the Company with greater flexibility in its future financing and strategic partnership in respect of the Group Companies. The Swap Agreement allows the Company to develop, finance and manage these properties according to its own plans (without restrictions which may arise if the minority shareholder of the Group Companies were an investment fund with a limited fund life), from which the Company can generate returns in the short to medium term through the disposals of completed projects and the leasing up of commercial properties, thereby potentially increasing value to the Company and its Shareholders. TPD was taking the lead in the development of TPQ116 and some other plots in Chongqing Tiandi; however TPD’s inability to contribute value to the Company’s projects cast doubt on its development capabilities.

After Completion, the Company can enter into joint-venture arrangements in respect of the Group Companies with other partners whose economic and strategic long-term interest align with those of the Group, i.e. partners who can share development risks with the Group and have the ability to hold long-term interests with respect to properties.

Benefits of the Joint Venture in respect of TPQ116

Shui On Development has a strong track record as a developer in the PRC and is considered a major player in the Shanghai real estate market. Furthermore, Shui On Development has previously managed the clearance of TPQ116 and has been involved in pre-development works of the site. Therefore, TPD has requested that Shui On Development form a joint-venture with them to develop TPQ116, in order to ensure its success, agreeing in exchange to offer Shui On Development control

On this basis, the parties entered into the JV Agreement in relation to Portspin, whereby Shui On Development can continue to act as the developer of TPQ116 and TPD can act as the investor in TPQ116 for the development of a residential complex (including a clubhouse) and car parking spaces.

Under the JV Agreement, Shui On Development’s approval is required on all major decisions in the development of TPQ116, including the development and business plan, budget and design. According to the Company’s estimates, the construction loan likely to be obtained by Portspin and the JV Group Companies shall be sufficient to fund most of the development costs of TPQ116, with the remainder to be supported by pre-sales proceeds. Therefore, it is considered unlikely that there will be any funding shortfall which would require Shui On Development to contribute further funding to support the project. There are also the Sale Option and the Purchase Option granted under the JV Agreement which, if exercised, could increase the Company’s interest in Portspin to nearly 40%.

Entering into the Swap Agreement and the JV Agreement as part of the Group’s business strategy

The entering into of the Swap Agreement and the JV Agreement would be a mutually beneficial transaction for both the Company and TPD. It allows the Company to continue holding and to obtain full control of the Group Properties (excluding TPQ116), which would require a significant amount of funds for their future development (which cannot be provided by TPD as a result of its lack of additional funding capacity and limited tenure), and take a longer time to develop and realize a profit than the tenure of TPD, whilst acquiring a minority interest in TPQ116 of potentially close to 40% (against the original shareholding of 51% before entering into the Swap Agreement), yet at the same time retaining considerable control in its development and business plans. On the other hand, TPD can exit from its investments in the Group Companies in line with its own terms and tenure. Therefore, the entering into of the Swap Agreement and the JV Agreement is in line with Group’s master-plan and business strategy of developing high-quality residential properties, commercial properties and mix-used properties in prime areas of major PRC cities, including Shanghai, Wuhan and Chongqing, and striving to achieve strong sales and rental performance from its projects.

The Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors) are of the view that the terms of the Swap Agreement and the JV Agreement have been negotiated on an arm’s length basis, on normal commercial terms, and are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole and would recommend the Independent Shareholders to vote in favour of the relevant resolutions if a physical Shareholders’ meeting was to be held.

Mr. Vincent H. S. LO, an executive Director and chairman of the Board, voluntarily abstained from voting on the Board resolutions to approve the Swap Agreement and the JV Agreement in order to pursue a higher level of corporate governance for the Company. None of the Directors has any material interest in the transactions contemplated under the Swap Agreement and the JV Agreement, and none of them was required to abstain from voting on the resolutions passed by the Board to approve the Swap Agreement and the JV Agreement.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

FINANCIAL EFFECTS OF THE SWAP AGREEMENT AND THE JV AGREEMENT

Prior to the completion of the Acquisition, Group Companies were majority-owned subsidiaries of the Company. After completion of the Acquisition, the Group Companies would become wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company and thus their assets, liabilities and financial results would continue to be consolidated into those of the Group.

After the completion of Disposal, Portspin will cease to be a subsidiary of the Company and thus its assets, liabilities and financial results would no longer be consolidated into the Group.

The Group expects to accrue a before tax gain of approximately RMB130 million from the Disposal, which is calculated based on the carrying value of TPD’s interest and shareholder’s loan in Portspin and the Group Companies in their respective audited financial statements for the seven months ended 31 July 2013, the carrying value of the Company’s interest and shareholder’s loan in Portspin in its audited financial statements for the seven months ended 31 July 2013, and the Company’s interest in Portspin after JV Completion (assuming the Company will hold an 18.9% interest in Portspin and based on the valuation of TPQ116 Cleared Site as of 31 July 2013 determined by the Appraiser), assuming the Completion and JV Completion had occurred on 31 July 2013.

The actual gain or loss to be recognized in the Company’s income statement may differ from the above-mentioned amount of gain primarily because the Company’s interest in Portspin may be subject to changes pursuant to the terms of the JV Agreement upon JV Completion.

Under the Swap Agreement, as a condition precedent to the Restructuring, Shui On Development has the obligation to deliver TPQ116 Cleared Site to the Investor, which means that TPQ116 shall be Vacant and: (i) Portspin and its subsidiaries shall have no liabilities (other than permitted liabilities); (ii) the shares in and assets of Portspin and its subsidiaries (including TPQ116) shall be free of all encumbrances. Therefore, for the purposes of the preparation of the unaudited pro forma information of the Group as set out in Appendix IV to this circular, it is assumed that at Completion, Portspin would not have any liabilities and would not hold any asset other than the TPQ116 Cleared Site. Based on the information available to the Directors as at the Latest Practicable Date, the estimated additional relocation cost and finance cost to be borne by the Group in obtaining TPQ116 Cleared Site is approximately RMB1,299 million, which may be subject to changes as a result of the progress of relocation and changes in finance cost.

As illustrated in the unaudited pro forma financial information as set out in Appendix IV in this circular, had the Completion under Swap Agreement occurred on 30 June 2013, the total assets of the Group would decrease from approximately RMB97,263 million to RMB94,415 million on a pro forma basis, and the total liabilities of the Group would decrease from approximately RMB56,243 million to RMB54,715 million on a pro forma basis. The net gearing ratio of the Group (calculated on the basis of the excess of the sum of convertible bonds, notes, bank and other borrowings of the Group net of bank deposits and cash, over the total equity of the Group) would increase from approximately 59% to 60% on a pro forma basis.

— 31 —

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

As at 30 June 2013, the unaudited total equity of the Group (which includes non-controlling interest) amounted to RMB41,020 million. Had the Completion under the Swap Agreement and the JV Completion under the JV Agreement occurred on 30 June 2013, the total equity of the Group (which includes non-controlling interest) would have decreased to RMB39,700 million (equivalent to the difference between the unaudited pro forma total assets of the Group of RMB94,415 million and the unaudited pro forma total liabilities of the Group of RMB54,715 million as at 30 June 2013), primarily due to the decrease of the Group’s interest in Portspin from 51% to approximately 18.9% under the Swap Agreement and the JV Agreement, as a result of which Portspin will cease to be a subsidiary of the Company and the net assets of Portspin would no longer be consolidated into the financial statements of the Group. However, the unaudited equity attributable to the equity holders of the Company (which excludes non-controlling interest) would increase by approximately RMB130 million (being the estimate gain on Disposal as a result of the Swap Agreement and the JV Agreement and the resulting change of the Company’s shareholding in Portspin from 51% to approximately 18.9%). Therefore, the transactions under the Swap Agreement and the JV Agreement will have a positive impact on the earnings of the Group and the unaudited equity attributable to the equity holders of the Company.

In the event of the exercise of Sale Option and Purchase Option under the JV Agreement, since the acquisition of the interest in Portspin would be at the total consideration of US$162 million and based on the relevant valuation of TPQ116, the Board considers that the acquisition would be at a fair value and there will be no material effect on the Group’s overall earnings, assets and liabilities. In the preparation of the unaudited pro forma information of the Group, reference has been made to the valuation of the Sale Option and the Purchase Option as determined by Asset Appraisal Ltd., an independent valuer, as further described in Appendix IV to this circular. The Directors are of the view that the valuation method and major assumptions of the valuation are fair and reasonable.

FINANCIAL AND TRADING PROSPECTS OF THE GROUP

In 2013, the PRC Government enacted economic reforms and structural adjustments, which emphasize sustainable quality growth by using market-driven measures to foster urbanization and domestic consumption. These policies have had an effect on the economic growth momentum in the PRC, and it is expected that the GDP growth will slow down to around 7%. Whilst government administrative policies in the real estate industry are expected to remain in place in various cities across the PRC, the risk of more stringent austerity measures in the real estate industry is alleviated by the slower economic growth, and the PRC real estate market is beginning to show signs of a clearer path for future development.

One of the highlights in the remainder of the year for the Group is Phase 1 construction of THE HUB in Shanghai, scheduled for completion by the end of 2013. Office tenants are expected to move in during the first and second quarters next year, and the entire project is on track for completion by the end of 2014. Enhancing integration with the Hongqiao transportation hub, THE HUB will offer offsite airport check-in and transportation services to and from the airport and train station — giving travellers the opportunity to have meetings, shop, dine and relax at THE HUB while waiting for their train and flights, which is a first in the PRC.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Despite slowing economic growth momentum, the PRC’s economic rebalancing growth strategy is favorable to the Group’s mixed-use property development model. The drive to boost household consumption and accelerate the development of the service sector can mitigate economic risks in an uncertain global economic environment. Furthermore, the Group’s mixed-use development model provides risk diversification in a frequently changing property policy environment. The new urbanization program of the PRC, a key strategic initiative under the new leadership, will expedite the development of urban and inter-city transportation network and help enhance the value of the Group’s Tiandi model and Transport Hub commercial properties.

The Board believes that the revenue and income to the Group will be improved in the future as the Group increases its equity interest in the Group Companies which hold quality project resources. In the long term, the Directors consider that the PRC real estate market will continue to develop and grow, and the acquisition of quality projects by the Group, together with its solid financial and capital positions, will lay a sound foundation for its long-term sustainable development.

IMPLICATIONS UNDER THE LISTING RULES

One or more of the applicable percentage ratios under Rule 14.07 of the Listing Rules in respect of each of the Acquisition and the Disposal under the Swap Agreement exceed 25% but are all less than 75%. Each of Trophy Property, Taipingqiao 116, Wuhan Tiandi, Elegant Partners, CCCD and Golden Swan holds, directly or indirectly, more than 10% interest in one or more of the Target Companies, which are indirectly non-wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company. Hence, each of Trophy Property, Taipingqiao 116, Wuhan Tiandi, Elegant Partners, CCCD and Golden Swan is a connected person of the Company. Accordingly, the Swap Agreement constitutes (i) a major transaction for the Company subject to the reporting, announcement and shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules; and (ii) a connected transaction for the Company subject to the reporting, announcement and independent shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.

One or more of the applicable percentage ratios under Rule 14.07 of the Listing Rules in respect of the transactions under the JV Agreement exceed 5% but are all less than 25%. Since Taipingqiao 116 is a connected person of the Company, the JV Agreement constitutes a discloseable and connected transaction for the Company subject to the reporting, announcement and independent shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 14 and Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.

The Directors have confirmed that they take full responsibility for the contents of the Circular and have made all reasonable inquiries that no material facts have been omitted from the information supplied to us.

We have no reason to suspect that any material facts or information have been withheld or to doubt the truth, accuracy or completeness of the information of all facts as set out in the Circular and of the information and representations provided to us by the Directors and/or management of the Company. Furthermore, we have no reason to suspect the reasonableness of the opinions and representations expressed by the Directors and/or management of the Company which have been provided to us.

We are independent from, and are not associated with the Company or any other party to the Transactions, or their respective substantial shareholder(s) or connected person(s), as defined under the Listing Rules and accordingly, are considered eligible to give independent advice on the Transactions. We will receive a fee from the Company for our role as the Independent Financial Adviser to the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders in relation to the Transactions. Apart from this normal professional fee payable to us in connection with this appointment, no arrangements exist whereby we will receive any fees or benefits from the Company or any other party to the Transactions or their respective substantial shareholder(s) or connected person(s), as defined under the Listing Rules.

The Independent Board Committee, comprising Sir John R. H. BOND, Dr. William K. L. FUNG, Professor Gary C. BIDDLE, Dr. Roger L. McCARTHY, and Mr. David J. SHAW, has been established to advise the Independent Shareholders as whether the Transactions were entered into in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Company, the terms of the Transactions were on normal commercial terms, fair and reasonable, and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

PRINCIPAL FACTORS AND REASONS CONSIDERED

In formulating and giving our independent financial advice to the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders, we have taken into account the following principal factors:

1. Background of the Transactions

Reference is made to the announcement of the Company dated 30 September 2013 in relation to the Transactions. On 30 September 2013, Shui On Development (a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company) and the Investor entered into the Swap Agreement, pursuant to which, amongst other things, (i) the Investor has agreed to transfer the Group Company Shares to Shui On Development; and (ii) Shui On Development has agreed to transfer the Portspin Shares to Taipingqiao 116.

— 38 —

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

As a result of the Swap Agreement, the Investor shall effectively transfer to Shui On Development its minority interest in three projects, namely Rui Hong Xin Cheng (Rainbow City) in Shanghai, Wuhan Tiandi and Chongqing Tiandi (which are currently joint venture projects between the Investor and Shui On Development, with Shui On Development as the majority shareholder). In return, Shui On Development shall transfer to the Investor its 51% majority interest in the TPQ116 project.

On the basis of information available to the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date, the shortfall amount payable by the Investor to Shui On Development under the Swap Agreement would be approximately RMB1,008,199,628. On 30 September 2013, Shui On Development, Taipingqiao 116 and Portspin entered into the JV Agreement in relation to Portspin, pursuant to which Shui On Development and Taipingqiao 116 shall, upon Completion under the Swap Agreement, form a joint venture in respect of Portspin. Under the JV Agreement, the shortfall amount under the Swap Agreement will be deemed contribution to Portspin by Shui On Development, upon which Shui On Development shall acquire approximately 18.9% interest in Portspin, with the remaining interest to be held by Taipingqiao 116. The JV Completion is conditional upon Completion under the Swap Agreement and will occur immediately following Completion at the location at which Completion takes place. Therefore, JV Completion would occur simultaneously with Completion, and JV Completion would not occur without Completion and vice versa.

1.1 Information on the Group

The Group is one of the leading property developers in the PRC. The Group engages principally in the development, sale, leasing, management and long-term ownership of high-quality residential, office, retail, entertainment and cultural properties in the PRC.

The Group’s overall strategy is to run a very unique business model, the Xintiandi model, across all of their projects located in prime areas of high-growth cities in China including Shanghai, Wuhan, Chongqing, Foshan and Dalian.

1.2 Information on the Investor

Each of Trophy Property, Taipingqiao 116, Wuhan Tiandi, Elegant Partners, CCCD and Golden Swan are investment holding companies which are directly or indirectly wholly-owned by TPD. Trophy Property, a Cayman Islands exempt company, is the general partner to TPD, and directly holds the interest in Taipingqiao 116 on behalf of TPD.

TPD is a Cayman Islands exempt company, whose investment objective and policy is to achieve a medium term capital appreciation through predominantly co-investments in opportunistic property developments with developers in the PRC, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan. TPD has a tenure of seven years, commencing in April 2008, with up to two one-year extensions (which have been approved by TPD’s Advisory Board, taking the tenure to April 2017). Their investments are principally in high-end projects in key locations in city centers including commercial, retail, residential or mixed-used developments. TPD is comprised of a number of limited partners.

From the graph above, TPD, through Group Companies and Portspin, invests in the Group Properties. Since TPD is facing the end of its tenure in 1 to 3 years, it is looking for an exit of its investment.

  • 1.3 Information on the principal assets held by Group Companies and Portspin

1.3.1 TPQ116

TPQ116 is part of the Group’s project named Taipingqiao, which is located in the Huangpu District. The Taipingqiao project has been transformed into a world-class commercial area and home to the flagship stores of a host of luxury brands.

The project is a large scale city-core redevelopment, with an emphasis on the preservation and restoration of historic buildings and the establishment of an integrated community. It blends the chic architecture of “Old Shanghai” with modern features and amenities. The project consists of four main zones: historic restoration zone (Shanghai Xintiandi), corporate headquarters zone (Corporate Avenue and Shui On Plaza), up-market residential zone (Lakeville), and the retail, hotel and theatre zone (Langham Xintiandi Hotel).

TPQ116 belongs to the residential zone, with total GFA of 90,000 square meters and is currently under relocation. As of 30 June 2013, approximately 92% of the households had signed relocation agreements. The site is expected to be cleared in second half of 2013 and development will then be commenced.

1.3.2 Wuhan Tiandi

Wuhan Tiandi is located in the city center of Hankou District. It has a prime location on the Yangtze River waterfront, with an unparalleled view of the Yangtze River and scenic Jiangtan Park. Wuhan Tiandi is a large-scale mixed-use redevelopment comprising two major sites with total GFA of approximately 1.8 million square meters. Site A includes office towers, retail, food

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

and beverage, and entertainment facilities, together with some residential blocks. Site B is mainly composed of residential and office buildings, together with a retail center. Through preserving local historical architecture while injecting new commercial value, the project has become a landmark in Wuhan.

Residential developments in Wuhan Tiandi are located in Site A with a total GFA of 204,000 square meters where all the residential units placed on the market since 2008 have been sold and delivered. In addition, basement construction of the shopping centre at Site A has commenced, including the retail podium and a portion of office and hotel works with a total GFA of 149,000 square meters, and is expected to complete in 2014.

On the other hand, Site B of Wuhan Tiandi has been under development since 2011. According to the plan, a total GFA of 543,000 square meters are planned for residential use. The remaining parcel of GFA of 129,000 square meters is earmarked as retail and office space. In Site B, Lot B9 of Wuhan Tiandi was completed in late 2012 and Lot B11 is planned for completion in second half of 2013. Besides, for the remaining areas in Site B, the Group plans to develop as commercial area and the construction has yet to commence.

1.3.3 Rui Hong Xin Cheng

Rui Hong Xin Cheng, also known as Rainbow City, is located in Hongkou District, which is adjacent to the North Bund and the North Sichuan Road business district. Rui Hong Xin Cheng is a large-scale city-core redevelopment project in Shanghai with total GFA of approximately 1.8 million square meters. According to the plan, the development will become a community whose enhancements include office buildings, retail podiums, hotels, entertainment, cultural and residential properties. Upon completion it will be a fashionable urban living center in Northeast Shanghai.

Rui Hong Xin Cheng is divided into different lots and phases. Phase 1 to 4 had been developed, sold, and delivered. Phase 5 is under construction and the first stage of pre-sale was held in December 2012. The second batch was offered in March 2013 and there will be further launches of the remaining residential of Phase 5 in second half of 2013.

Apart from that, Lot 2, 3, 9 and 10 which encompass a total planned GFA of 569,000 square meters are under relocation process and will be developed in future. The four sites will be developed as residential apartments, offices, shopping centers, hotels and entertainment area. As of 30 June 2013, approximately 76%, 96%, 83%, and 77% respectively of residents had signed relocation agreements. Further relocation work for the remaining GFA of 500,000 square meters for Lots 1, 7, 167A and 167B has yet to commence.

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

1.3.4 Chongqing Tiandi

Chongqing Tiandi is located in Yuzhong District, the traditional central business district of Chongqing. Chongqing Tiandi is also an urban redevelopment project with total GFA of approximately 3.6 million square meters and its plan includes man-made lake with pavilions and a promenade along the waterfront, a commercial core comprising Grade A office buildings, exhibition and conference facilities, luxury-standard hotels, retail and entertainment outlets and residential properties. Residential clusters on the hillside were designed to replicate Chongqing’s traditional hill-town characteristics and to offer scenic views of the lake and river.

Chongqing Tiandi is divided into different lots and phases. Phase 1 to 3 of residential development were completed and delivered before the end of 2012. Phase 4 was partially launched for pre-sale in second half of 2012 with delivery made in the first half of 2013.

Remaining areas of Phase 4 and Phase 5, with a total GFA of 1,078,000 square meters, are currently under development. In addition, the remaining parcel of GFA of 974,000 square meters is earmarked as residential and has yet to commence.

2. Reasons for and benefits of the Transactions

We note that the reasons for and benefits of the Transactions, as explained by the management of the Company, are mainly as follows:

2.1 Reasons for and benefits of the Swap Agreement

As discussed with the management of the Company, among the existing property portfolio of the Group, we noted that TPD only has investment interest in the Group Properties. TPQ116, being part of the Taipingqiao project, is a small scale development with residential properties only. On the other hand, Rui Hong Xin Cheng, Wuhan Tiandi and Chongqing Tiandi, are all large scale development projects with mixture of residential, commercial and retail properties. As such, by using the equity interest of small scale development project of TPQ116 in exchange for the remaining minority interests of large scale development projects of Rui Hong Xin Cheng, Wuhan Tiandi and Chongqing Tiandi, the Group can continue to roll out its business strategy to develop large-scale mixed-use real estate projects in the core cities and maintain long-term ownership of such projects in the PRC.

We also noted that there is a discrepancy between the tenure of TPD which will expire in 1 to 3 years and the development cycle of the Group’s property projects which will span across a period of ten years or more according to its master-plan. As mentioned in the section 1.3.2, 1.3.3 and 1.3.4 above, a large portion of GFA of Rui Hong Xin Cheng, Wuhan Tiandi and Chongqing Tiandi are yet to start development. As of 30 June 2013, approximately 62.7%, 36.2% and 35.0% respectively of total GFA were identified as properties for future development. Therefore, sales from Group Properties (excluding TPQ116) are not expected to happen before the end of TPD’s tenure. On the other hand, relocation of TPQ116 is expected to be cleared in 2013 and the development can be commenced afterwards, therefore, cash flows can be generated from TPQ116 in the relative short-term compared with the Group Properties (excluding TPQ116). As a result, mutual benefits could be achieved for both

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

TPD and the Group by entering into the Swap Agreement as it allows the Group to continue holding the Group Properties (excluding TPQ116), which would take a longer time to develop and realise a profit than the tenure of the TPD, whilst at the same time allowing TPD to exit from its investments in the Group Companies in line with its own terms and tenure.

In addition, the Swap Agreement provides the Group with an opportunity to gain 100% control in the Group Companies. With its full control of the Group Companies, the Group can: i) have greater flexibility in its future financing and potential strategic partnership with any third party whose business strategy aligns with the Group’s business strategy in respect of the Group Companies; and ii) maximise the benefits of the Company and its Shareholders.

Given i) the Swap Agreement enables the Group to continue to roll out its business strategy to develop large-scale mixed-use real estate projects in core cities and maintain long-term ownership of such projects in the PRC; ii) the Swap Agreement provides a mutually beneficial result for both TPD and the Group by solving the discrepancy between their investment tenure; and iii) the Swap Agreement allows the Group to gain 100% control in the Group Companies, we are of the view that although the Swap Agreement is not entered into in the usual and ordinary course of business of the Group, it is in line with the business strategy of the Group and is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

2.2 Reasons for and benefits of the JV Agreement

As discussed with the management of the Company, we noted that Shui On Development, through the JV Agreement, will have a continuing role and interest in the development of TPQ116 since Shui On Development has a strong track record as a developer in the PRC and is considered as a major player in the Shanghai real estate market. Furthermore, Shui On Development has previously managed the clearance of TPQ116 and has been involved in pre-development works of the site.

In addition, we also noted that Shui On Development will re-invest its interest in Portspin of approximately 18.9% based on the Total Amount, through its deemed capital contribution, and may increase its interest in TPQ116 upon exercise of the Sale Option and the Purchase Option by Taipingqiao 116 and itself, respectively, which would increase the Group’s interest in Portspin to nearly 40%. Given that the re-investment, on the one hand, enables the Group to share the profits and cash inflow generated from sale of residential units in TPQ116 in the future and, on the other hand, delivers the positive message to the Investor that the Group is not exiting any of its investment in Shanghai, we are of the view that the re-investment in Portspin is in the interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

Furthermore, Shui On Development and TPD have already established a long term relationship and have developed mutual trust and understanding along the way.

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

Since the JV Agreement was negotiated at arm’s length and under the JV Agreement, the Group can continue to retain considerable control in the construction and development plan of TPQ116, the overall design and quality standard of TPQ116 may be ensured to be in line with other projects of the Group. As such, although the entering into of the JV Agreement is not in the usual and ordinary course of business of the Group, it is in line with the business strategy of the Company and is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

3. Principal terms of the Transactions

3.1 The Swap Agreement

3.1.1 Key terms of the Swap Agreement

For key terms of the Swap Agreement, please refer to page 8 to 13 in the letter from the Board in the Circular for details.

3.1.2 Basis of determining the Shortfall Amount

For a detailed description on the basis of the Shortfall Amount, please refer to page 13 and 14 in the letter from the Board in the Circular.

As discussed with the management of the Company, we understand that the Shortfall Amount is calculated by the following formula:

The Shortfall Amount = Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value (RMB5,273 million) + Loan Guarantee Fee (RMB19.6 million) - TPD Total Portfolio Value (RMB4,349 million)

As discussed with the management of the Company, we understand that by entering into of the Swap Agreement, Shui On Development and the Investor intend to swap the Group Company Shares and the Portspin Shares at their respective fair value as at 31 July 2013 on a dollar to dollar basis. The principal asset of the Portspin Shares upon Completion is the TPQ116 Cleared Site. On the other hand, the principal assets of the Group Company Shares are the Group Properties excluding the land and properties owned by Portspin. Since there is also Loan Guarantee Fee which is owed by Elegant Partners to Shui On Development, therefore the Shortfall Amount is set to reflect the difference in value as of 31 July 2013 between the Acquisition, the Disposal and the Loan Guarantee Fee. As such, the difference in value under the Swap Agreement and the Loan Guarantee Fee can be recognised. Based on the above, we are of the view that the formula to determine the Shortfall Amount is fair and reasonable.

To assess the components forming the formula in determining the Shortfall Amount, we have reviewed and discussed with the management of the Company the calculation basis of the Adjusted TPQ 116 Cleared Site Value, the Loan Guarantee Fee and the TPD Total Portfolio Value respectively.

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

3.1.2a Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value

The Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value is determined by (i) the valuation of TPQ116 Cleared Site as of 31 July 2013; and (ii) certain adjustments based on Portspin’s audited financial statements.

3.1.2ai Valuation of TPQ116 Cleared Site

We understand that the value of TPQ116 Cleared Site is determined based on independent valuation report prepared by the Independent Valuer as of 31 July 2013. We have reviewed and understand that the valuation has been arrived by adopting market-based valuation approach with reference to sales evidence of comparable properties with adjustments made to account for any difference.

After discussions with the Independent Valuer, we consider that since the market-based valuation approach is a commonly adopted and well recognised methodology in valuing properties similar to TPQ116, we are of the view that such valuation basis is fair and reasonable.

In addition, we have also discussed with the Independent Valuer regarding the adjustments made with reference sales evidence of comparable properties. We understand that the Independent Valuer has selected the comparable properties in the same district with location nearby TPQ116. Independent Valuer has also considered the property specifics of the comparable properties, such as the height of building, direction the building is facing and the type of view from the building, when making its valuation. We consider such factors are key factors that have direct correlation to the market price of a particular property and as such we consider that the Independent Valuer is prudent to make adjustments based on these factors.

Furthermore, based on our discussions with the Independent Valuer, we understand that the Independent Valuer has assumed that the property will be completed in accordance with the development proposals provided to the Independent Valuer and the relevant approvals for the proposals have been obtained. Moreover, the Independent Valuer has also taken into account the cost of development including construction costs, finance costs, professional fees and developer’s profit which duly reflects the risks associated with the development of the property. Because the TPQ116 at the time of the valuation was still a property occupied by dilapidated buildings due to be demolished, we consider that the assumptions and considerations made by the Independent Valuer are fair and reasonable.

Based on the above, we are of the view that the valuation of the TPQ116 Cleared Site is fair and reasonable.

3.1.2aii Certain adjustments based on Portspin’s audited financial statements

In relation to adjustments made in deriving the Adjusted TPQ 116 Cleared Site Value, we noted that the addition of the non-relocation cost with respect to TPQ116 up to 30

— 45 —

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

November 2012 was capped as mutually agreed between the Group and TPD, whereas the addition of the non-relocation cost with respect to TPQ116 from 1 December 2012 up to 31 July 2013 and the deduction of the onshore minority shareholder interest of Portspin were extracted from the audited financial statement of Portspin as at 31 July 2013. We also noted that the addition of the estimated deed tax payable, representing the tax liability to be settled before TPQ116 is qualified as a TPQ116 Cleared Site and the deduction of the income tax provision to Portspin, representing the potential tax liability of valuation gain of TPQ116 should it be disposed of, were agreed and determined based on the respective tax rates of 3% and 25% as required by the PRC tax law.

By considering the above adjustments, we are of the view that the Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value has taken into account of all factors to reflect the net asset value of Portspin as of 31 July 2013.

We have reviewed the management account of Portspin as at 30 November 2012, audited financial statement of Portspin as at 31 July 2013 and have discussed with the management of the Company. We are satisfied that the above adjustments have been properly calculated.

As such, we consider the adjustments made in deriving the Adjusted TPQ 116 Cleared Site Value are reasonable.

In conclusion, we are of the view that the basis of determination of the Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value is fair and reasonable.

3.1.2b Loan Guarantee Fee

The Loan Guarantee Fee is another key component in determining the Shortfall Amount. We understand that this figure represented the loan guarantee fee owed by Elegant Partners to Shui On Development (as the Company’s assignee) pursuant to letter entitled “Re: Guarantee Fee in relation to the Standard Chartered Bank Syndicated Loan” dated 1 June 2010 and entered into by Elegant Partners, Shui On Development and the Company.

We have reviewed the Standard Charted Bank Syndicated Loan document and are satisfied with the calculation of the Loan Guarantee Fee.

As such, we consider the basis of calculating the Loan Guarantee Fee is fair and reasonable.

3.1.2c TPD Total Portfolio Value

The TPD Total Portfolio Value was determined based on the valuation of each Group Property as at 31 July 2013 (multiplied by TPD’s effective interest in each Group Property), as adjusted by taking into account all other assets, total liabilities, onshore minority shareholders’ interests and amount of shareholders’ loan owed to TPD of the Group Companies and Portspin, percentage of TPD’s interest in the Group Companies and Portspin and mutually agreed income tax provision relating to the Group Companies and Portspin.

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

3.1.2ci Valuation of the Group Properties

We understand that the valuation of the Group Properties, being TPQ116, Wuhan Tiandi, Chongqing Tiandi and Rui Hong Xin Cheng (except sites under relocation and for future relocation where the land costs for such projects had not been fixed), which forms the basis in deriving the TPD Total Portfolio Value, is determined based on independent valuation of the Group Properties as at 31 July 2013. As such, we have reviewed the valuation reports of the Group Properties, discussed with the Independent Valuer and the management of the Company.

We understand from the Independent Valuer that the Group Properties are categorised into three types namely: i) properties held for investment purpose; ii) properties held for sale; and iii) properties under development. They have considered adopting the market-based valuation approach which is commonly adopted and well recognised methodology in valuing properties that are similar to the Group Properties.

The market value of the property interest is the estimated amount for which an asset or liability should exchange on the valuation date between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s-length transaction after proper marketing and wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion.

In relation to properties held for investment purpose which mainly includes but not limited to office buildings, hotels, serviced apartments and retail properties etc, we understand that the Independent Valuer adopted the market approach by making reference to comparable market transactions and also the income approach on the basis of capitalisation of the rental income derived from the existing tenancies with due allowance for reversionary income potential of the property. In terms of the income approach, we understand that the major assumptions made were based on the rental income of existing tenancies, together with the expected rental income with reference to the market rate of nearby comparable properties. In terms of the market approach, we understand that the major assumptions made were based on sales evidence of comparable properties depending on the types of properties as available in the market. As such, we consider that the valuation approach being adopted and the major assumptions made in valuing properties held for investment purpose are reasonable.

In relation to properties held for sale which are residential properties, we understand that the Independent Valuer adopted direct comparison approach with reference to market comparable transactions. We understand that the major assumptions made were based on sales evidence of comparable residential properties of similar size, character and location, and analysed and weighed against the advantages and disadvantages of each residential property in arriving at a fair value. As such, we consider that the valuation approach being adopted and the major assumption made in valuing properties held for sale are reasonable.

In relation to properties under development which mainly includes but not limited to office buildings, hotel, serviced apartments, residential and retail properties etc, we understand that the Independent Valuer adopted the residual method under the market-based

— 47 —

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

valuation approach by making reference to comparable properties transactions as available in the market and certain adjustments based on the professional judgment of the Independent Valuer through careful consideration of factors such as respective locations, and accessibilities in valuing the properties under development. The Independent Valuer has also taken into account the cost of development including but not limited to construction costs, finance costs, professional fees and developer’s profit which duly reflects the risk associated with the development of the properties. We understand that the major assumptions made were based on the comparable properties transaction depending on the types of properties as available in the market. As such, we consider that, the valuation approach and the major assumptions made in valuing the properties under development are reasonable.

In relation to sites under relocation and for future relocation except for Wuhan Tiandi and Chongqing Tiandi where the land costs for such projects had been fixed as agreed with the relevant government authorities, the value were determined according to book cost. We understand from the Independent Valuer that they had not considered the relocation cost when valuing the properties under development. Given the relocation cost of such projects is uncertain, we consider that such projects to be determined according to book cost is reasonable.

Based on the above, we are of the view that the valuation of the Group Properties is fair and reasonable.

3.1.2cii Certain adjustments

Apart from the valuation of the Group Properties as discussed above, TPD Total Portfolio Value is also comprised of (i) the addition of all other assets (including cash and bank balance, account receivables and equipment) and the deduction of the total liabilities (including account payables, bank borrowing, and amount of loans between inter-companies) of each Group Company and Portspin which were balance sheet adjustments as extracted from the audited financial statements of Group Companies and Portspin as at 31 July 2013; (ii) the deduction of the onshore minority shareholders’ interests and amount of shareholders’ loan owed to TPD of the Group Companies and Portspin; (iii) multiply by the respective percentage of TPD’s interest in the Group Companies and Portspin; and (iv) the deduction of mutually agreed income tax provision relating to the Group Companies and Portspin, representing the potential tax liability of valuation gain of properties of the Group Companies and Portspin should they being disposed of, were agreed and determined based on the respective tax rate of 25% as required by the PRC tax law. By making the above adjustments, the TPD Total Portfolio Value has taken into account of all assets and liabilities attributed to the Group Companies and Portspin.

We have reviewed the respective audited financial statements of the Group Companies and Portspin as at 31 July 2013 and have discussed with the management of the Company. We are satisfied that the above adjustments have been properly calculated.

— 48 —

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

As such, we consider the adjustments, being the balance sheet adjustments and tax liability, made in deriving the TPD Total Portfolio Value are reasonable.

In conclusion, we are of the view that the basis of determination of the TPD Total Portfolio Value is fair and reasonable.

Given:

  • i) the formula to determine the Shortfall Amount is fair and reasonable;

  • ii) the basis of determination of the Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value is fair and reasonable;

  • iii) the basis of calculating the Loan Guarantee Fee is fair and reasonable; and

  • iv) the basis of determination of the TPD Total Portfolio Value is fair and reasonable,

we are of the view that the formula in determining the Shortfall Amount and the calculation of the Shortfall Amount are fair and reasonable.

3.1.3 Basis of determining the Total Amount

We discussed with the management of the Company and noted that the Total Amount shall be the Shortfall Amount with certain balance sheet adjustments by adding the non-relocation cost of TPQ116 incurred from 1 August 2013 to the Completion Date, estimated to be approximately RMB 64,679,000, all assets of Portspin (excluding property, plant and equipment, properties under development) as at the Completion Date, minus liabilities of Portspin (excluding amounts due to Shui On Development and its affiliates to the extent assigned to Taipingqiao 116, and amounts due to the Investor and their affiliates) as at the Completion Date, and as adjusted by the change of onshore minority shareholder interest of Portspin as at the Completion Date compared to 31 July 2013, which are additional adjustments reflecting the latest position of non-relocation cost of TPQ116 incurred and onshore minority shareholder interest of Portspin as at Completion Date. We consider that the Total Amount is the balance sheet adjustments of Shortfall Amount, which is determined as of 31 July 2013, to reflect the value under the same basis as of the Completion Date. As such, we consider the basis of determining the Total Amount is fair and reasonable.

Given i) the formula in determining the Shortfall Amount and the calculation of the Shortfall amount is fair and reasonable; and ii) the basis of determining the Total Amount is fair and reasonable, we are of the view that the terms of the Swap Agreement was on normal commercial terms, fair and reasonable, and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

3.2 The JV Agreement

3.2.1 Key terms of the JV Agreement

For key terms of the JV Agreement, please refer to page 19 to 23 in the Letter from the Board in the Circular for details.

— 49 —

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

  • 3.2.2 Basis of determining the capital contribution by Shui On Development to Portspin (the “ Capital Contribution ”).

We have discussed with the management of the Company and understood that the Capital Contribution which is used for determining the deemed equity interest in Portspin by the Group, subject to any adjustment (the “Share Adjustment”) to be made (refer to section “The JV Agreement — Share Adjustment” in the Circular).

The Capital Contribution is calculated by the following formula:

Contribution Value Enlarged share Capital Contribution = x capital of Portspin Final Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value

The purpose of calculating the Capital Contribution is to ensure that the Group can recover the Shortfall Amount and in exchange for corresponding equity interest in equal value in the JV Group Companies. As such, we consider that the above mentioned formula, which in essence reflects the ratio between the Shortfall Amount and the net asset value of Portspin as at the Completion Date, is fair and reasonable.

3.2.2a Contribution Value

In relation to the Contribution Value, being the greater of (i) the Total Amount (which is determined based on the Shortfall Amount and as described in section 3.1.3 above); and (ii) 15% of the Final Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value).

3.2.2ai Final Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value

We have discussed with the management of the Company and understood that the Final Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value shall be the Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value, plus non-relocation cost of TPQ116 from 1 August 2013 to the Completion Date, plus assets of Portspin (excluding property, plant and equipment and properties under development) as at Completion Date, minus all liabilities of Portspin (excluding amount due to Shui On Development and its affiliates to the extent assigned to Taipingqiao 116 and amount due to Taipingqiao 116 and affiliates) as at the Completion Date, and as adjusted by the change in onshore minority interest of Portspin as at the Completion Date compared to 31 July 2013. We considered that the Final Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value is the balance sheet adjustment to recognise the difference on balance sheet of Portspin between the Completion Date and 31 July 2013, and this represents the net asset value of Portspin as at the Completion Date. As such, we are of the view that the basis of the Final Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value is fair and reasonable.

— 50 —

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

Since the Capital Contribution is mainly considered by the Contribution Value, being the greater of (i) the Total Amount; and ii) 15% of the Final Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value, it allows the Group to recover its shortfall difference as at the Completion Date by obtaining interest of Portspin under the JV Agreement if the Contribution Value being the Total Amount. On the other hand, if the shortfall difference is less than 15% of the Final Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value as at the Completion Date, the Contribution Value shall become 15% of the Final Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value, but the Group can still entitle to 15% equity interest in Portspin. As such we are of the view that the basis of determining the Contribution Value is fair and reasonable.

Given i) the formula in determining the Capital Contribution is fair and reasonable; ii) the basis of determining the Contribution Value is fair and reasonable; and iii) the basis of determining the Final Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value is fair and reasonable, we consider the calculation of the Capital Contribution is fair and reasonable.

3.2.2b Share Adjustment

We understand that the Final Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value shall be recalculated based on the Post-Completion Audit according to the same methodology as set out in the sub-section headed “Capital Contribution” in the Circular. Shui On Development and Taipingqiao 116 shall then readjust their respective holding of shares in Portspin and shareholder’s loans and make corresponding payment to take account of any difference between (i) the amount so recalculated and the Final Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value; and (ii) the Final Total Amount and the Total Amount.

After the above adjustments, Shui On Development shall be deemed to have contributed the greater of (a) the Final Total Amount, and (b) 15% of the Final Adjusted TPQ116 Cleared Site Value (as finally adjusted), and shall receive in return the number of shares that the Contribution Value would yield pursuant to the formula set out in the sub-section “Shares Issuance” in the Circular (which shall not be less than 15% of the total outstanding shares in Portspin in any event).

We consider that the purpose of the Share Adjustment is to reflect the difference of Contribution Value between the Completion Date and the Post-Completion Audit. As such, we are of the view that the Share Adjustment is fair and reasonable.

3.2.3 Post-completion Sale/Purchase Option

We discussed with the management of the Company and noted that under the Sale Option, Taipingqiao 116 shall have the right to sell shares in Portspin with a value of US$90 million to Shui On Development, subject to the relevant valuation of land and properties of the JV Group Companies being satisfactory to the parties upon the Sale Option being exercised, at the transfer price of US$81 million. In the event that the Sale Option is exercised, Shui On Development shall have the right, under the Purchase Option, to acquire additional shares in Portspin under similar mechanism as the Sale Option.

— 51 —

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

Regarding the Sale Option, we understand the rationale to grant the Sale Option is that, there is a real possibility that certain investors of TPD may request redemption from TPD and exit from TPD prior to the completion of TPQ116. The amount of US$90 million in value of shares in Portspin is determined by TPD’s internal assessment of the likelihood of the potential redemption amount required by its investors for such exit. We consider that it is commercially reasonable to take into consideration of such potential redemption and the basis of determining the redemption value based on potential real demand is also reasonable.

As discussed with the management of the Company, we understand that upon the exercise of the Sale Option, an independent valuer will be engaged and conduct a valuation of land and properties of the JV Group Companies being satisfactory to the parties. The exact number of shares in Portspin that are corresponding to the share value of US$90 million will then be determined based on the valuation of the independent valuer. We consider that since Portspin is the project company of TPQ116, hence a real estate development company, using an independent valuation to determine the fair value of the shares in Portspin is fair and reasonable.

In addition, the exercise price of the Sale Option in the amount of US$81 million is determined based on a 10% discount to the value of shares in Portspin under the Sale Option. We understand that this 10% discount was determined based on the commercial decisions of Taipingqiao 116 and Shui On Development after arm’s length negotiations, considering that the Sale Option is only exercisable at Taipingqiao 116’s discretion, the short exercisable period of the Sale Option and Shui On Development would only be acquiring a minority interest in Portspin upon the exercise of the Sale Option. We consider these factors are commercially reasonable and thus the 10% discount is a fair outcome of the negotiations between Taipingqiao 116 and Shui On Development.

Regarding the Purchase Option, we understand that the rationale to obtain such Purchase Option is for the Company to obtain a reciprocal commercial treatment in light of granting the Sale Option. We view this reciprocal treatment which is a right that is exercisable by the Company at its own discretion is commercially fair and reasonable. Since the amount of the value of shares in Portspin under the Purchase Option and the exercise price of the Purchase Option are the same as the respective ones under the Sale Option, we also consider these figures are equally reasonable.

In sum, we are of the view that the terms of the Sale Option and the Purchase Option are fair and reasonable.

In addition, the Sale Option and the Purchase Option, if both are exercised, will allow the Group to further increase its interest in Portspin up to nearly 40%. This provides an opportunity for the Group to share the profits and cash inflow generated from sale of residential units in TPQ116 in future. As such, we consider that the Sale Option and the Purchase Option are in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

Given i) the basis of determining the Capital Contribution and the Share Adjustment are fair and reasonable; ii) the terms of the Sale Option and the Purchase Option are fair and reasonable, iii) the Sale Option and the Purchase Option are in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole, we are of the view that the terms of the JV Agreement was on normal commercial terms, fair and reasonable, and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

4. Financial Impacts of the Transactions

4.1 Effect on net asset value

As disclosed in the 2013 Interim Report, the Group had unaudited net asset value of the Company (which includes non-controlling interest) of approximately RMB 41,020 million as at 30 June 2013. Prior to the completion of the Acquisition, the Group Companies were majority-owned subsidiaries of the Company which had been consolidated in the financial statements of the Group. Upon Completion, the Group Companies became wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company and thus its assets, liabilities and financial results would continue to be consolidated into those of the Group.

On the other hand, prior to the completion of the Disposal, Portspin, which the Group held 51% interest, was a subsidiary of the Group and had been consolidated in the financial statements of the Group. Immediately upon Completion and prior to JV Completion, TPD will hold 100% of Portspin and the Group will cease to hold any interest in Portspin even though the Group would subsequently re-invest its interest in Portspin of approximately 18.9% through Capital Contribution upon JV Completion. As a result, the Group will not be able to consolidate the assets, liabilities and financial results of Portspin into the financial statements of the Group. Nevertheless, the unaudited pro-forma net asset value attributable to the equity holders of the Company would increase by approximately RMB 130 million (being the estimate gain on Disposal) as a result of the Swap Agreement and the JV Agreement.

Had the Completion under the Swap Agreement and the JV Completion under the JV Agreement occurred on 30 June 2013, the total equity of the Group (which includes non-controlling interest) would have decreased to RMB39,700 million (equivalent to the difference between the unaudited pro forma total assets of the Group of RMB94,415 million and the unaudited pro forma total liabilities of the Group of RMB54,715 million as at 30 June 2013), However, the unaudited equity attributable to the equity holders of the Company would increase by approximately RMB130 million (being the estimate gain on Disposal as a result of the Swap Agreement and the JV Agreement and the resulting change of the Company’s shareholding in Portspin from 51% to approximately 18.9%). In essence the net asset value of the Group would have decreased slightly by approximately 3% as a result. We consider that since such slight drop in the net asset value of the Group is caused purely due to the fact of accounting treatment of consolidation of subsidiaries, while under the Swap Agreement, Shui On Development and the Investor intend to swap the Group Company Shares and the Portspin Shares at their respective fair value as at 31 July 2013, based on respective valuation reports prepared by the Independent Valuer, on a dollar to dollar basis, as such, we consider that the Transactions will not have a material adverse impact on the net asset value of the Group.

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

4.2 Effect on earnings

The Group expects to accrue a before tax gain of approximately RMB 130 million from the Disposal, which is calculated based on the carrying value of TPD’s interest and shareholder’s loan in Portspin and the Group Companies in their respective audited financial statements for the seven months ended 31 July 2013, the carrying value of the Company’s interest and shareholder’s loan in Portspin in its audited financial statements for the seven months ended 31 July 2013, and the Company’s interest in Portspin after JV Completion (assuming the Company will hold an 18.9% interest in Portspin and based on the valuation of TPQ116 Cleared Site as of 31 July 2013 determined by the Appraiser), assuming the Completion and JV Completion had occurred on 31 July 2013. As such, we consider that the Transactions will have a positive impact on the earnings of the Group.

4.3 Effect on cash/working capital/net gearing ratio

As disclosed in the 2013 Interim Report, the Group had unaudited current assets of approximately RMB 36,766 million including bank deposits, bank balances and cash of approximately RMB 9,311 million and unaudited current liabilities of approximately RMB 22,835 million as at 30 June 2013. As discussed with the management of the Company, the Group is required to bear approximately RMB 1,299 million in obtaining TPQ116 Cleared Site, which may be subject to changes as a result of the progress of relocation and changes in finance cost.

Under the JV Agreement, in the event that the Sale Option and the Purchase Option is exercised by Taipingqiao 116 and Shui On Development, the Group would be required to pay US$162 million (approximately RMB 991 million) for acquiring shares in Portspin. The total potential cash outflow will increase to approximately RMB 2,290 million which is expected to decrease the Group’s net current assets.

As disclosed in the 2013 Interim Report, the Group had a net gearing ratio of approximately 59%, being the excess of the sum of convertible bonds, notes, bank and other borrowings net of bank balances and cash over the total equity, had the Completion under Swap Agreement been completed on 30 June 2013, the pro-forma net gearing ratio would increase slightly to approximately 60%.

Nevertheless, given i) the Group had a strong cash position and working capital, being the net of the current assets and the current liabilities; ii) the pro-form net gearing ratio of the Group increased slightly by approximately 1% which demonstrates that the Group still has a strong capability to borrow money if required; and iii) the potential cash outflow of approximately RMB991 million is used for increasing the equity interest in Portspin in which the Group is able to share the cash inflow generated from pre-sale of residential units of TPQ116, we consider that the Transactions will not have a material adverse impact on the cash position, the working capital and the net gearing ratio of the Group.

In light of:

  • i. the Transactions will not have a material adverse impact on the net asset value of the Group;

  • ii. the Transactions will have a positive impact on the earnings of the Group; and

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

  • iii. the Transactions will not have a material adverse impact on the cash position, the working capital and the net gearing ratio of the Group,

we are of the view that the Transactions will not have a material adverse financial effect on the Group and is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

RECOMMENDATION

The audited consolidated financial statements of Fieldcity Investments for each of the three years ended 31 December 2012 were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (the “Fieldcity Investments Financial Statements”) and were audited by us.

The statutory financial statements of Super Field Limited for each of the three years ended 31 December 2012 were prepared in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“HKICPA”) and were audited by us.

The statutory financial statements of Wuhan Shui On Tiandi Property Development Co., Ltd. for each of the three years ended 31 December 2012 and Wuhan Shuion Shanghai Company Limited for the period from 24 July 2012 (date of establishment) to 31 December 2012 were prepared in accordance with the relevant accounting principles and financial regulations applicable to enterprises established in the PRC and were audited by 大信會計師事務所 (Wnyige Certified Public Accountants LLP), certified public accountants registered in the PRC.

For the purpose of this report, the Directors of Fieldcity Investments have prepared consolidated financial statements of the Fieldcity Investments Group for the seven months ended 31 July 2013 in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (the “31 July 2013 Financial Statements”). We have undertaken an independent audit of the 31 July 2013 Financial Statements in accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing issued by the HKICPA. The Financial Information set out in this report has been prepared from the Fieldcity Investments Financial Statements and 31 July 2013 Financial Statements (collectively referred to as “Underlying Financial Statements”). We have examined the Underlying Financial Statements in accordance with the Auditing Guideline 3.340 “Prospectuses and the Reporting Accountant” as recommended by the HKICPA. No adjustments to the Underlying Financial Statements are considered necessary in the preparation of this report for inclusion in the Circular.

The Underlying Financial Statements are the responsibility of the Directors of Fieldcity Investments who approved their issue. The Directors of SOL are responsible for the contents of the Circular in which this report is included. It is our responsibility to compile the Financial Information set out in this report from the Underlying Financial Statements, to form an opinion on the Financial Information and to report our opinion to you.

APPENDIX II

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

The comparative consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Fieldcity Investments Group for the seven months ended 31 July 2012 together with the notes thereon have been extracted from the Fieldcity Investments Group’s unaudited consolidated financial information for the same period (the “31 July 2012 Financial Information”) which was prepared by the Directors of Fieldcity Investments solely for the purpose of this report. We have reviewed the 31 July 2012 Financial Information in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Review Engagements 2410 “Review of interim financial information performed by the independent auditor of the entity” issued by the HKICPA. Our review of the 31 July 2012 Financial Information consisted of making enquires, 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 on the 31 July 2012 Financial Information. Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the 31 July 2012 Financial Information is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the accounting policies consistent with those used in the preparation of the Financial Information which conform with International Financial Reporting Standards.

— II-11 —

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

The Directors of Fieldcity Investments anticipate that the application of the new and revised IFRSs will have no material impact on the results and the financial position of the Fieldcity Investments Group.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Financial Information have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for investment properties which are measured at fair values at the end of each reporting period, as explained in the accounting policies set out below.

Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services.

The Financial Information has been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out below which conform with IFRSs. In addition, the Financial Information includes applicable disclosures required by the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Stock Exchange and by the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.

The significant accounting polices adopted are set out as follows:

Basis of consolidation

The Financial Information incorporates the financial statements of Fieldcity Investments and entities controlled by Fieldcity Investments (its subsidiaries). Control is achieved when Fieldcity Investments:

  • has power over the investee;

  • is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and

  • has the ability to use its power to affect its returns.

Fieldcity Investments reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are change to one or more of the three elements of control listed above.

Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies in line with those used by other members of the Fieldcity Investments Group.

All intra-group transactions, balances, incomes and expenses are eliminated in full on consolidation.

— II-12 —

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

APPENDIX II

Investment properties

Investment properties are properties held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation.

On initial recognition, investment properties are measured at cost, including any directly attributable expenditure. Construction costs incurred for investment properties under construction or development are capitalised as part of the carrying amount of the investment properties under construction or development.

Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties, including completed investment properties and certain investment properties under construction or development, are measured at their fair value at the end of each reporting period using the fair value model. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of investment property are included in profit or loss for the period in which they arise.

In circumstances where the fair value of an investment property under construction or development is not reliably determinable, such investment properties under construction or development are measured at cost less impairment, if any, until when its fair value becomes reliably determinable upon finalisation of the development plan, land and relocation cost and construction costs.

An investment property is derecognised upon disposal or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits are expected from its disposals. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the property (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in profit or loss in the year/period in which the item is derecognised.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment, other than hotel under development, are stated in the consolidated statement of financial position at cost less subsequent accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.

Hotel under development held for owner’s operation are stated at cost less subsequent accumulated impairment, if any. Cost comprises development expenditure including professional charges directly attributable to the development and borrowing cost capitalised during the development period. No depreciation is provided on the cost of hotel under development until hotel operation commences.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost of items of property, plant and equipment, other than hotel under development, over their estimated useful lives and after taking into account their estimated residual value, using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.

— II-13 —

APPENDIX II

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item) is included in profit or loss in the year/period in which the item is derecognised.

Properties under development for sale

Properties under development which are intended to be held for sale are carried at lower of cost and net realisable value and are shown as current assets. Cost includes the costs of land, development expenditure incurred and, where appropriate, borrowing costs capitalised during construction period.

Properties under development for sales are transferred to properties held for sale when the relevant completion certificates are issued by the respective government authorities.

Properties held for sale

Properties held for sale are stated at lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined by apportionment of the total land and development costs attributable to the properties held for sale. Net realised value is determined based on prevailing market conditions.

Impairment

At the end of the reporting period, the Fieldcity Investments Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any. When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Fieldcity Investments Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Where a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified, corporate assets are also allocated to individual cash-generating units, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest group of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be identified.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or a cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or a cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or a cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (or a cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised as income immediately.

APPENDIX II

Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position when a group entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition.

Financial assets

The Fieldcity Investments Group’s financial assets are classified as loans and receivables.

Effective interest method

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and of allocating interest income over the relevant periods. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts (including all fees paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial asset, or, where appropriate, a shorter period to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.

Interest income is recognised on an effective interest basis for debt instruments.

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Subsequent to initial recognition, loans and receivables (including accounts receivable, amounts due from fellow subsidiaries and a related company, pledged bank deposits, restricted bank deposits and bank balances and cash) are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any identified impairment losses.

Impairment of loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of the reporting period. Loans and receivables are considered to be impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the loans and receivables, the estimated future cash flows of loans and receivables have been affected.

The objective evidence of impairment could include:

  • significant financial difficulty of the issuer or counterparty; or

  • breach of contract, such as default or delinquency in interest and principal payments; or

  • it becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial re-organisation.

— II-15 —

APPENDIX II

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

For certain categories of financial assets, such as accounts receivables, assets that are assessed not to be impaired individually are, in addition, assessed for impairment on a collective basis. Objective evidence of impairment for receivables could include the Fieldcity Investments Group’s past experience of collecting payments, an increase in the number of delayed payments in the portfolio past the credit period, as well as observable changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with default on receivables.

The amount of impairment loss recognised is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate.

The carrying amount of loans and receivables is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of accounts receivables, where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognised in profit or loss. When the accounts receivables are considered uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited to profit or loss.

If, in a subsequent period, the amount of impairment loss of loans and receivables decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the asset at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortised cost would have been had no impairment loss been recognised.

Financial liabilities and equity instruments

Financial liabilities and equity instruments issued by a group entity are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.

Equity instruments

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Fieldcity Investments Group after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by Fieldcity Investments are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

Effective interest method

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant periods. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments (including all fees paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial liability, or, where appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.

Interest expense is recognised on an effective interest basis.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

APPENDIX II

Financial liabilities

The Fieldcity Investments Group’s financial liabilities (including accounts payable, amounts due to immediate holding company, fellow subsidiaries, a non-controlling shareholder and a related company, loan from a non-controlling shareholder and bank borrowings) are subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest method.

Derecognition

The Fieldcity Investments Group derecognises a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another entity. If the Fieldcity Investments Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership and continues to control the transferred asset, the Fieldcity Investments Group continues to recognise the asset to the extent of its continuing involvement and recognises an associated liability.

On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognised in profit or loss.

The Fieldcity Investments Group derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the Fieldcity Investments Group’s obligations are discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised in profit or loss.

Leasing

Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

The Fieldcity Investments Group as lessor

Rental income from operating leases is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased assets and recognised on straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Fieldcity Investments Group as lessee

Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Leasehold land and building

When a lease includes both land and building elements, the Fieldcity Investments Group assesses the classification of each element as a finance or an operating lease separately based on the assessment as to whether substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of each element have been

— II-17 —

APPENDIX II

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

transferred to the Fieldcity Investments Group, unless it is clear that both elements are operating leases in which case the entire lease is classified as an operating lease. Specifically, the minimum lease payments (including any lump-sum upfront payments) are allocated between the land and the building elements in proportion to the relative fair values of the leasehold interests in the land element and building element of the lease at the inception of the lease.

To the extent the allocation of the lease payments can be made reliably, interest in leasehold land that is accounted for as an operating lease is presented as “prepaid lease payments” in the consolidated statement of financial position and is released over the lease term on a straight-line basis except for those that are classified and accounted for as investment properties under the fair value model. When the lease payments cannot be allocated reliably between the land and building elements, the entire lease is generally classified as a finance lease and accounted for as property, plant and equipment.

Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets are capitalised as part of the cost of those assets. Capitalisation of such borrowing costs ceases when the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.

All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

Taxation

Taxation represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year/period. Taxable profit differs from profit before taxation as reported in the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The Fieldcity Investments Group’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the Financial Information and the corresponding tax base used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.

— II-18 —

APPENDIX II

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, except where the Fieldcity Investments Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilise the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of the reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset is realised, based on tax rate (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Fieldcity Investments Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

For the purpose of measuring deferred tax liabilities or deferred tax assets for investment properties that are measured using the fair value model, the carrying amounts of such properties are presumed to be recovered entirely through sale, unless the presumption is rebutted. The presumption is rebutted when the investment property is depreciable and is held within a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the investment property over time, rather than through sale. If the presumption is rebutted, deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets for such investment properties are measured in accordance with the above general principles set out in IAS 12 (i.e. based on the expected manner as to how the properties will be recovered).

Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except when it relates to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the current and deferred tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively

Foreign currencies

In preparing the financial statements of each individual group entity, transactions in currencies other than the functional currency of that entity (foreign currencies) are recorded in the respective functional currency (i.e. the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates) at the rates of exchanges prevailing on the dates of the transactions. At the end of the reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on that date. Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.

— II-19 —

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

APPENDIX II

Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items, and on the retranslation of monetary items, are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

Retirement benefit costs

Payments to state-managed retirement benefit schemes are recognised as an expense when employees have rendered service entitling them to the contributions.

Revenue recognition

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for goods sold and services provided in the normal course of business, net of discounts and sales related taxes.

Revenue from properties developed for sale in the ordinary business is recognised upon delivery of properties to the purchasers pursuant to the sales and purchase agreements.

Rental income from properties under operating leases is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease.

Rental related income are recognised in profit or loss when the services are rendered.

Interest income from a financial asset is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Fieldcity Investments Group and the amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest income from a financial asset is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset’s net carrying amount on initial recognition.

4. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY

In the process of applying the Fieldcity Investments Group’s accounting policies, which are described in note 3, the Directors of Fieldcity Investments are required to make judgements, estimate and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

— II-20 —

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

APPENDIX II

Critical judgements in applying accounting policies

The following are the critical judgements, apart from those involving estimations (see below), that the Directors of Fieldcity Investments have made in the process of applying the Fieldcity Investments Group’s accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the Financial Information.

Deferred taxation on investment properties

For the purposes of measuring deferred tax liabilities or deferred tax assets arising from investment properties that are measured using the fair value model, the Directors of Fieldcity Investments have reviewed the Fieldcity Investments Group’s investment property portfolios and concluded that certain of the Fieldcity Investments Group’s investment properties are held under a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the investment properties over time, rather than through sale. Therefore, in measuring the Fieldcity Investments Group’s deferred taxation on investment properties, the Directors of Fieldcity Investments have determined that the presumption that the carrying amounts of such investment properties measured using the fair value model are recovered entirely through sale is rebutted. As at 31 December 2010, 31 December 2011, 31 December 2012 and 31 July 2013, the Fieldcity Investments Group has recognised deferred taxes liabilities of RMB12 million, RMB88 million, RMB213 million and RMB225 million, respectively, in respect of the revaluation of investment properties.

Key sources of estimation uncertainty

The following are the key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.

Investment properties

The fair values of completed investment properties and certain investment properties under construction or development that are measured using the fair value model are determined based on the valuation performed by independent professional valuers. In determining the fair value, the valuers have based on a method of valuation which involves certain estimates of market condition. In relying on the valuation report, the Directors of Fieldcity Investments have exercised their judgement and are satisfied that the assumptions used in the valuation reflect of market condition. The basis of valuation is disclosed in note 12. Changes to these assumptions would result in changes in the fair values of the Fieldcity Investments Group’s investment properties and the corresponding adjustments to the amount of gain or loss reported in the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. At 31 December 2010, 31 December 2011, 31 December 2012 and 31 July 2013, the carrying amounts of investment properties that are measured at fair value are RMB648 million, RMB959 million, RMB2,041 million and RMB2,193 million, respectively.

APPENDIX II

Land appreciation tax

The Fieldcity Investments Group is subject to land appreciation tax (“Land Appreciation Tax”) in the PRC. However, the implementation and settlement of the tax varies amongst different tax jurisdictions in various cities of the PRC and the Fieldcity Investments Group has not finalised its Land Appreciation Tax calculation and payments with any local tax authorities in the PRC. Accordingly, significant judgement is required in determining the amount of the Land Appreciation Tax and its related income tax provisions. The Fieldcity Investments Group recognised the Land Appreciation Tax based on management’s best estimates. The final tax outcome could be different from the amounts that were initially recorded, and these differences will impact the income tax provisions in the periods in which such tax is finalised with local tax authorities. During the years ended 31 December 2010, 31 December 2011, 31 December 2012 and the seven months ended 31 July 2013 and 31 July 2012, the Fieldcity Investments Group has recognised Land Appreciation Tax of RMB71 million, RMB240 million, RMB182 million, RMB35 million and RMB48 million (unaudited), respectively.

APPENDIX II

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

The fair values of the Fieldcity Investments Group’s investment properties at 31 December 2010, 31 December 2011, 31 December 2012 and 31 July 2013 and at dates of transfer upon completion of development of investment properties under construction or development and at the dates of transfer to property, plant and equipment have been arrived at on the basis of valuations carried out on those dates by Knight Frank Petty Limited, independent qualified professional valuers not connected to the Fieldcity Investments Group whose address is 4/F, Shui On Centre, 6-8 Harbour Road, Wan Chai, Hong Kong.

During the year ended 31 December 2010, investment properties under construction or development with a carrying amount of RMB153 million are transferred to properties under development for sale upon the finalisation of development plan, when upon the Fieldcity Investments Group has determined that the properties would be developed with a view to sale.

For completed investment properties, the valuations have been arrived at using direct comparison method and capitalisation of net income method, where appropriate. In the valuation, the market rentals of all lettable units of the properties are assessed by reference to the rentals achieved in the lettable units as well as other lettings of similar properties in the neighbourhood. The capitalisation rate adopted is made by reference to the yield rates observed by the valuer for the similar properties in the locality and adjusted based on the valuers’ knowledge of the factors specific to the respective properties.

For investment properties under construction or development that are measured at fair value, the valuations have been arrived at assuming that the investment properties will be completed in accordance with the development proposals and the relevant approvals for the proposals have been obtained. The key inputs in the valuations include the market value of the completed investment properties, which are estimated with reference to sales evidence of similar properties in the nearest locality, with adjustments made to account for differences in locations and other factors specific to the respective properties based on the valuers’ judgement. Costs of development are also taken into account including construction costs, finance costs and professional fees, as well as developer’s profit margin which reflects the remaining risks associated with the development of the properties at the valuation date and the return that the developer would require for bringing them to completion status, which is determined by the valuers based on its analyses of recent land transactions and market value of similar completed properties in the respective locations.

For financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:

  • Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date;

  • Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

  • Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

APPENDIX II

The changes in fair value of investment properties recognised in profit or loss during the Relevant Period represent the unrealised gain relating to completed investment properties and certain investment properties under development or construction that are measured at fair value.

Fair value measurements and valuation processes

In estimating the fair value of the Fieldcity Investments Group’s investment properties, the management of Fieldcity Investments uses market-observable data to the extent it is available. Where Level 1 inputs are not available, the management of Fieldcity Investments engages third party qualified valuers to perform the valuation of the Fieldcity Investments Group’s investment properties. At the end of each reporting period, the management of Fieldcity Investments works closely with the qualified external valuers to establish and determine the appropriate valuation techniques and inputs for Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements. The management of Fieldcity Investments will first consider and adopt Level 2 inputs where inputs can be derived from observable quoted prices in the active market. When Level 2 inputs are not available, the management of Fieldcity Investments will adopt valuation techniques that include Level 3 inputs. Where there is a material change in the fair value of the assets, the causes of the fluctuations will be reported to the Directors of Fieldcity Investments.

Information about the valuation techniques and inputs in determining the fair value of the Fieldcity Investments Group’s investment properties are disclosed above.

29. CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Fieldcity Investments Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Fieldcity Investments Group will be able to continue as a going concern while maximising the return to shareholders through the optimisation of the debt and equity balance. The Fieldcity Investments Group’s overall strategy remains unchanged from prior years.

The capital structure of the Fieldcity Investments Group consists of debt, which includes amount due to immediate holding company, bank borrowings and loan from a non-controlling shareholder, and the equity attributable to equity holders of Fieldcity Investments, comprising issued share capital and retained earnings.

The Directors of Fieldcity Investments review the capital structure on a yearly basis. As part of this review, the Directors of Fieldcity Investments consider the cost of capital and the risks associated with the capital, and will balance its overall capital structure through new share issues and debt financing when the need arises.

b. Financial risk management objectives and policies

The Fieldcity Investments Group’s major financial instruments include accounts receivable, amounts due from fellow subsidiaries and a related company, pledged bank deposits, restricted bank deposits, bank balances and cash, accounts payable, amounts due to immediate holding company, fellow subsidiaries, a non-controlling shareholder and a related company, loan from a non-controlling shareholder and bank borrowings.

Details of these financial instruments are disclosed in respective notes. The risks associated with these financial instruments and the policies on how to mitigate these risks are set out below. The management of Fieldcity Investments manages and monitors these exposures to ensure appropriate measures are implemented on a timely and effective manner.

— II-56 —

APPENDIX II

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

The main risks arising from the Fieldcity Investments Group’s financial instruments are currency risk, interest rate risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Directors of Fieldcity Investments review and agree policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarised below.

Currency risk

The Fieldcity Investments Group has certain bank balances and debt obligations that are denominated in foreign currency. As a result, the Fieldcity Investments Group is exposed to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. The management of Fieldcity Investments closely monitors foreign currency exposure and will consider hedging significant foreign currency exposure should the need arise.

The carrying amounts of the Fieldcity Investments Group’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities at the end of each reporting period are as follows:

At 31 December At 31 December At 31 July
2010 2011 2012 2013
_RMB’million RMB’million RMB’million _ RMB’million
Hong Kong dollar (“HK$”)
Assets 1 1 1
Liabilities 4 4 5 5
United States dollar (“US$”)
Assets 1
Liabilities 2,775 2,649 2,707 2,476

Sensitivity analysis

The Fieldcity Investments Group is mainly exposed to the currency of US$.

The following table details the Fieldcity Investments Group’s sensitivity to a 5% increase and decrease in RMB against the US$. 5% is the sensitivity rate used when reporting foreign currency risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in foreign exchange rates.

— II-57 —

APPENDIX II

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

The sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items assuming the balances at the end of each reporting period outstanding for the whole year/period and adjusts their translation at the year/period end for a 5% change in foreign currency rates. A positive number below indicates an increase in profit where RMB strengthen 5% against the US$. For a 5% weakening of RMB against the US$, there would be an equal and opposite impact on the profit, and the balances below would be negative.

Seven months

2010
2011
2012 2013
RMB’million RMB’million RMB’million RMB’million
US$
Profit or loss 132 126 129 118

In the management’s opinion, the sensitivity analysis is unrepresentative of the inherent foreign exchange risk as the year/period end exposure does not reflect the exposure during the year/period.

Interest rate risk

The Fieldcity Investments Group is exposed to fair value interest rate risk in relation to its amounts due from fellow subsidiaries and pledged bank deposits which are carried at fixed interest rate. The Fieldcity Investments Group is also exposure to cash flow interest rate risk in relation to bank borrowings, amount due to immediate holding company, loan from a non-controlling shareholder, restricted bank deposits and bank balances which are carried at variable interest rates. It is the Fieldcity Investments Group’s policy to keep its borrowings at floating rate of interests so as to minimise the fair value interest rate risk.

The management of Fieldcity Investments consider the Fieldcity Investments Group’s exposure to cash flow interest rate risk of the restricted bank deposits and bank balances is minimal, no sensitivity analysis is presented for each of the reporting period.

Fieldcity Investments Group’s exposures to interest rates on financial liabilities are detailed in the liquidity risk management section of this note. The Fieldcity Investments Group’s cash flow interest rate risk is mainly concentrated on the fluctuation of PBOC prescribed interest rate arising from the Fieldcity Investments Group’s RMB borrowings.

Sensitivity analysis

The sensitivity analyses below have been determined based on the exposure to interest rates for non-derivative instruments at the end of each reporting period. For variable-rate bank borrowings, amount due to immediate holding company and loan from a non-controlling shareholder, the analysis is prepared assuming the amount of liability outstanding at the end of each reporting period was outstanding for the whole year/period. A 100 basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates.

— II-58 —

APPENDIX II

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

If interest rates had been 100 basis points higher/lower and all other variables were held constant, the Fieldcity Investments Group’s profit for the year would decrease/increase by RMB5 million, RMB6 million, RMB7 million and RMB4 million for the years ended 31 December 2010, 31 December 2011, 31 December 2012 and the seven months ended 31 July 2013, respectively. This is mainly attributable to the Fieldcity Investments Group’s exposure to interest rates on its variable-rate bank borrowings, amount due from immediate holding company and loan from a non-controlling shareholder, after taking into consideration the effect of capitalisation of interest costs.

Credit risk

At the end of each reporting period, the Fieldcity Investments Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk which will cause a financial loss to the Fieldcity Investments Group due to failure to discharge an obligation by the counterparties is arising from the carrying amount of the respective recognised financial assets as stated in the consolidated statements of financial position.

The Fieldcity Investments Group’s credit risk is primarily attributable to its accounts receivable and amounts due from fellow subsidiaries. The Fieldcity Investments Group has no significant concentration of credit risk, except for the accounts receivable and amounts due from fellow subsidiaries.

The accounts receivable amounting to nil, RMB227 million, RMB91 million and RMB91 million as at 31 December 2010, 31 December 2011, 31 December 2012 and 31 July 2013, respectively, due from the largest customer which operates in the financial institution sector in the PRC. The Directors of Fieldcity Investments consider that there is no significant credit risk arising from this major customer given its strong financial background and good creditability.

The Directors of Fieldcity Investments review the recoverable amount of amount due from fellow subsidiaries at the end of each reporting period to ensure that adequate impairment losses are made for irrecoverable amounts. In this regard, the Directors of Fieldcity Investments consider that the credit risk arising from the amounts due from fellow subsidiaries is significantly reduced.

The credit risk on liquid funds is limited because the funds were deposited with various creditworthy financial institutions located in Hong Kong and in the PRC.

Liquidity risk

The Fieldcity Investments Group’s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and the flexibility through the use of bank borrowings, advances from immediate holding company and loan from a non-controlling shareholder. The Fieldcity Investments Group also monitors the current and expected liquidity requirements and its compliance with lending covenants regularly to ensure it maintains sufficient working capital and adequate committed lines of funding to meet its liquidity requirement.

The following table details the maturities of the Fieldcity Investments Group’s financial liabilities. The table has been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Fieldcity Investments Group can be required to pay. The table includes both interest and principal cash flows. To the extent that interest flows are floating rate, the undiscounted amount is derived from interest rate at the end of each reporting period.

We have examined the Underlying Financial Statements in accordance with the Auditing Guideline 3.340 “Prospectuses and the Reporting Accountant” as recommended by the HKICPA. No adjustments to the Underlying Financial Statements are considered necessary in the preparation of this report for inclusion in the Circular.

The Underlying Financial Statements are the responsibility of the Directors of Foresight Profits who approved their issue. The Directors of SOL are responsible for the contents of the Circular in which this report is included. It is our responsibility to compile the Financial Information set out in this report from the Underlying Financial Statements together with the notes thereon, to form an opinion on the Financial Information and to report our opinion to you.

In our opinion, the Financial Information together with the notes thereon give, for the purpose of this report, a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Foresight Profits Group as at 31 December 2010, 31 December 2011, 31 December 2012 and 31 July 2013, and of its results and cash flows for each of the Relevant Periods.

The comparative consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Foresight Profits Group for the seven months ended 31 July 2012 together with the notes thereon have been extracted from the Foresight Profits Group’s unaudited consolidated financial information for the same period (the “31 July 2012 Financial Information”) which was prepared by the Directors of Foresight Profits solely for the purpose of this report. We have reviewed the 31 July 2012 Financial Information in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Review Engagements 2410 “Review of interim financial information performed by the independent auditor of the entity” issued by the HKICPA. Our review of the 31 July 2012 Financial Information consisted of making enquires, 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 on the 31 July 2012 Financial Information. Based on

our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the 31 July 2012 Financial Information is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the accounting policies consistent with those used in the preparation of the Financial Information which conform with International Financial Reporting Standards.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL INFORMATION

1. GENERAL

Foresight Profits was incorporated in the BVI with limited liability on 8 February 2001. The principal activity of Foresight Profits is investment holding.

Its parent company is Shui On Development (Holding) Limited, a limited liability company incorporated in the Cayman Islands. The Directors of Foresight Profits consider that its ultimate holding company is Shui On Land Limited (“SOL”), a limited liability company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with its shares listed on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “Stock Exchange”) until 15 March 2013. Since 16 March 2012, Shui On Company Limited (“SOCL”), a private limited liability company incorporated in the BVI, has obtained the control over SOL and become the ultimate holding company of Foresight Profits. Its ultimate controlling party is Mr. Vincent H. S. Lo.

The address of the registered office of Foresight Profits is P.O. Box 957, Offshore Incorporations Centre, Road Town, Tortola, BVI and the principal place of business is 34/F, Shui On Centre, 6-8 Harbour Road, Wan Chai, Hong Kong.

The Financial Information is presented in Renminbi (“RMB”), which is also the functional currency of Foresight Profits.

2. APPLICATION OF INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS

For the purpose of preparing and presenting the Financial Information for each of the three years ended 31 December 2012 and the seven months ended 31 July 2013, the Foresight Profits Group has adopted all International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”) which are effective for the Foresight Profits Group’s accounting period beginning on 1 January 2013 and consistently applied throughout the Relevant Periods.

At the date of this report, the Foresight Profits Group has not early applied the following new and revised IFRSs that have been issued but are not yet effective:

Amendments to IFRS 9 and Mandatory Effective Date of IFRS 9 and Transition IFRS 7 Disclosures[2] Amendments to IFRS 10, Investment Entities[1] IFRS 12 and IAS 27 IFRS 9 Financial Instruments[2] Amendments to IAS 32 Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities[1] Amendments to IAS 36 Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-Financial Assets[1] Amendments to IAS 39 Novation of Derivatives and Continuation of Hedge Accounting[1] IFRIC 21 Levies[1]

— II-74 —

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

APPENDIX II

  • 1 Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014 2 Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015

The Directors of Foresight Profits anticipate that the application of the new and revised IFRSs will have no material impact on the results and the financial position of the Foresight Profits Group.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Financial Information have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for investment properties which are measured at fair values at the end of each reporting period, as explained in the accounting policies set out below.

Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services.

The Financial Information has been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out below which conform with IFRSs. In addition, the Financial Information applicable and includes applicable disclosures required by the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Stock Exchange and by the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.

The significant accounting polices adopted are set out as follows:

Basis of consolidation

The Financial Information incorporates the financial statements of Foresight Profits and entities controlled by Foresight Profits (its subsidiaries). Control is achieved when Foresight Profits:

  • has power over the investee;

  • is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and

  • has the ability to use its power to affect its returns.

Foresight Profits reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are change to one or more of the three elements of control listed above.

Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies in line with those used by other members of the Foresight Profits Group.

All intra-group transactions, balances, incomes and expenses are eliminated in full on consolidation.

Non-controlling interests in subsidiaries are presented separately from the Foresight Profits Group’s equity therein.

— II-75 —

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

APPENDIX II

Allocation of total comprehensive income to non-controlling interest

Total comprehensive income and expense of a subsidiary is attributed to the shareholders of Foresight Profits and to the non-controlling interests even if the results in non-controlling interest having a deficit balance.

Investment properties

Investment properties are properties held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation.

On initial recognition, investment properties are measured at cost, including any directly attributable expenditure. Construction costs incurred for investment properties under construction or development are capitalised as part of the carrying amount of the investment properties under construction or development.

Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties, including completed investment properties and certain investment properties under construction or development, are measured at their fair values at the end of each reporting period using the fair value model. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of investment property are included in profit or loss for the period in which they arise.

In circumstances where the fair value of an investment property under construction or development is not reliably determinable, such investment properties under construction or development are measured at cost less impairment, if any, until when its fair value becomes reliably determinable upon finalization of the development plan, land and relocation cost and construction costs. An investment property is derecognised upon disposal or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits are expected from its disposals. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the property (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the profit or loss in the year/period in which the property is derecognised.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated in the consolidated statement of financial position at cost less subsequent accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost of items of property, plant and equipment over their estimated useful lives and after taking into account their estimated residual value, using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.

— II-76 —

APPENDIX II

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item) is included in the profit or loss in the year/period in which the item is derecognised.

Properties under development for sale

Properties under development which are intended to be held for sale are carried at lower of cost and net realisable value and are shown as current assets. Cost includes the costs of land, development expenditure incurred and, where appropriate, borrowing costs capitalised during construction period.

Properties under development for sales are transferred to properties held for sale when the relevant completion certificates are issued by the respective government authorities.

Properties held for sale

Properties held for sale are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined by apportionment of the total land and development costs attributable to the properties held for sale. Net realised value is determined based on prevailing market conditions.

Impairment

At the end of the reporting period, the Foresight Profits Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any. When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Foresight Profits Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Where a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified, corporate assets are also allocated to individual cash-generating units, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest group of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be identified.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or a cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or a cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or a cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (or a cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised as income immediately.

— II-77 —

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

APPENDIX II

Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position when a group entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition.

Financial assets

The Foresight Profits Group’s financial assets are classified as loans and receivables.

Effective interest method

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and of allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts (including all fees paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial asset, or, where appropriate, a shorter period to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.

Interest income is recognised on an effective interest basis for debt instruments.

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Subsequent to initial recognition, loans and receivables (including accounts and other receivables, pledged bank deposits and bank balances and cash) are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any identified impairment losses.

Impairment of loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of the reporting period. Loans and receivables are considered to be impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the loans and receivables, the estimated future cash flows of loans and receivables have been affected.

The objective evidence of impairment could include:

  • significant financial difficulty of the issuer or counterparty; or

  • breach of contract, such as default or delinquency in interest and principal payments; or

  • it becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial re-organisation.

— II-78 —

APPENDIX II

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

For certain categories of financial assets, such as accounts receivables, assets that are assessed not to be impaired individually are, in addition, assessed for impairment on a collective basis. Objective evidence of impairment for receivables could include the Foresight Profits Group’s past experience of collecting payments, an increase in the number of delayed payments in the portfolio past the credit period, as well as observable changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with default on receivables.

The amount of impairment loss recognised is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate.

The carrying amount of loans and receivables is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of accounts receivables, where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognised in profit or loss. When the accounts receivables are considered uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited to profit or loss.

If, in a subsequent period, the amount of impairment loss of loans and receivables decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the asset at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortised cost would have been had no impairment loss been recognised.

Financial liabilities and equity instruments

Financial liabilities and equity instruments issued by a group entity are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.

Equity instruments

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Foresight Profits Group after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by Foresight Profits are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

Effective interest method

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments (including all fees paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial liability, or, where appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.

Interest expense is recognised on an effective interest basis.

— II-79 —

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

APPENDIX II

Financial liabilities

The Foresight Profits Group’s financial liabilities (including accounts payable, amounts due to immediate holding company, fellow subsidiaries, a non-controlling shareholder and related companies, loan from a non-controlling shareholder and bank borrowings) are subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest method.

Derecognition

The Foresight Profits Group derecognises a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another entity. If the Foresight Profits Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership and continues to control the transferred asset, the Foresight Profits Group continues to recognise the asset to the extent of its continuing involvement and recognises an associated liability.

On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognised in profit or loss.

The Foresight Profits Group derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the Foresight Profits Group’s obligations are discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised in profit or loss.

Leasing

Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

The Foresight Profits Group as lessor

Rental income from operating leases is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased assets and recognised on straight-line basis over the lease term.

Leasehold land and buildings

When a lease includes both land and building elements, Foresight Profits Group assesses the classification of each element as a finance or an operating lease separately based on the assessment as to whether substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of each element have been transferred to the Foresight Profits Group, unless it is clear that both elements are operating leases in which case the entire lease is classified as an operating lease. Specifically, the minimum lease payments (including any lump-sum upfront payments) are allocated between the land and the building elements in proportion to the relative fair values of the leasehold interests in the land element and building element of the lease at the inception of the lease.

— II-80 —

APPENDIX II

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

To the extent the allocation of the lease payments can be made reliably, interest in leasehold land that is accounted for as an operating lease is presented as “prepaid lease payments” in the consolidated statement of financial position and is released over the lease term on a straight-line basis except for those that are classified and accounted for as investment properties under the fair value model. When the lease payments cannot be allocated reliably between the land and building elements, the entire lease is generally classified as a finance lease and accounted for as property, plant and equipment.

Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets are capitalised as part of the cost of those assets. Capitalisation of such borrowing costs ceases when the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.

All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

Taxation

Taxation represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year/period. Taxable profit differs from profit before taxation as reported in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The Foresight Profits Group’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the Financial Information and the corresponding tax base used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, except where the Foresight Profits Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilise the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.

— II-81 —

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of the reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset is realised, based on tax rate (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Foresight Profits Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

For the purpose of measuring deferred tax liabilities or deferred tax assets for investment properties that are measured using the fair value model, the carrying amounts of such properties are presumed to be recovered entirely through sale, unless the presumption is rebutted. The presumption is rebutted when the investment property is depreciable and is held within a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the investment property over time, rather than through sale. If the presumption is rebutted, deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets for such investment properties are measured in accordance with the above general principles set out in IAS 12 (i.e. based on the expected manner as to how the properties will be recovered).

Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except when it relates to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the current and deferred tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively

Foreign currencies

In preparing the financial statements of each individual group entity, transactions in currencies other than the functional currency of that entity (foreign currencies) are recorded in the respective functional currency (i.e. the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates) at the rates of exchanges prevailing on the dates of the transactions. At the end of the reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on that date. Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.

Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items, and on the retranslation of monetary items, are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

Retirement benefit costs

Payments to state-managed retirement benefit schemes are recognised as an expense when employees have rendered service entitling them to the contributions.

— II-82 —

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

APPENDIX II

Revenue recognition

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for goods sold and services provided in the normal course of business, net of discounts and sales related taxes.

Revenue from properties developed for sale in the ordinary business is recognised upon delivery of properties to the purchasers pursuant to the sales agreements.

Rental income from properties under operating leases is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease.

Rental related income are recognised in profit or loss when the services are rendered.

Interest income from a financial asset is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Foresight Profits Group and the amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest income from a financial asset is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset’s net carrying amount on initial recognition.

4. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY

In the process of applying the Foresight Profits Group’s accounting policies, which are described in note 3, the Directors of Foresight Profits are required to make judgements, estimate and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Critical judgements in applying accounting policies

The following are the critical judgements, apart from those involving estimations (see below), that the Directors of Foresight Profits have made in the process of applying the Foresight Profits Group’s accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the Financial Information.

— II-83 —

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

APPENDIX II

Deferred taxation on investment properties

For the purposes of measuring deferred tax liabilities or deferred tax assets arising from investment properties that are measured using the fair value model, the Directors have reviewed the Foresight Profits Group’s investment property portfolios and concluded that certain Foresight Profits Group’s investment properties are held under a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the investment properties over time, rather than through sale. Therefore, in measuring the Foresight Profits Group’s deferred taxation on investment properties, the Directors have determined that the presumption that the carrying amounts of such investment properties measured using the fair value model are recovered entirely through sale is rebutted. As at 31 December 2010, 31 December 2011, 31 December 2012 and 31 July 2013, the Foresight Profits Group has recognised deferred taxes liabilities of RMB94 million, RMB112 million, RMB125 million, RMB137 million, respectively, in respect of the revaluation of investment properties.

Key sources of estimation uncertainty

The following are the key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.

Investment properties

The fair values of completed investment properties and certain investment properties under construction or development that are measured using the fair value model are determined based on the valuation performed by independent professional valuers. In determining the fair value, the valuers have based on a method of valuation which involves certain estimates of market condition. In relying on the valuation report, the Directors of Foresight Profits have exercised their judgement and are satisfied that the assumptions used in the valuation reflect of market condition. The basis of valuation is disclosed in note 12. Changes to these assumptions would result in changes in the fair values of the Foresight Profits Group’s investment properties and the corresponding adjustments to the amount of gain or loss reported in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. At 31 December 2010, 31 December 2011, 31 December 2012 and 31 July 2013, the carrying amounts of investment properties that are measured at fair value are RMB846 million, RMB980 million, RMB1,296 million and RMB1,371 million, respectively.

Land appreciation tax

The Foresight Profits Group is subject to land appreciation tax (“Land Appreciation Tax”) in the PRC. However, the implementation and settlement of the tax varies amongst different tax jurisdictions in various cities of the PRC and the Foresight Profits Group has not finalised its Land Appreciation Tax calculation and payments with any local tax authorities in the PRC. Accordingly, significant judgement is required in determining the amount of the Land Appreciation Tax and its related income tax provisions. The Foresight Profits Group recognised the Land Appreciation Tax based on management’s best estimates. The final tax outcome could be different from the amounts that were initially recorded, and these differences will impact the income tax provisions in the periods in which

— II-84 —

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

such tax is finalised with local tax authorities. During the years ended 31 December 2010, 31 December 2011, 31 December 2012 and the seven months ended 31 July 2013 and 31 July 2012, the Foresight Profits Group has recognised Land Appreciation Tax of RMB126 million, RMB175 million, RMB18 million, nil and RMB18 million (unaudited), respectively.

APPENDIX II

Segment revenue represents the turnover of the Foresight Profits Group.

Segment results represents the profit earned or loss incurred by each segment without allocation of interest income, and finance costs and exchange differences. This is the measure reported to the chief operating decision makers who are the Directors of Foresight Profits for the purpose of resource allocation and performance assessment.

For the purpose of monitoring segment performances and allocating resources between segments:

  • all assets are allocated to reportable segments other than pledged bank deposits and bank balances and cash; and

  • all liabilities are allocated to reportable segments other than amounts due to immediate holding company, fellow subsidiaries, a non-controlling shareholder and related companies, loan from a non-controlling shareholder, bank borrowings, tax liabilities and deferred tax liabilities.

All Foresight Profits Group’s turnover and contribution to operating profit is attributable to customers in the PRC based on the location of operations. Accordingly, no analysis of geographical segment is presented.

No geographical segment information of the Foresight Profits Group’s non-current assets is shown as all assets are located in the PRC based on the geographical location of assets. Foresight Profits Group’s non-current assets, excluding accounts receivable and pledged bank deposits, are amounted to RMB1,519 million, RMB3,570 million, RMB4,113 million and RMB4,273 million as at 31 December 2010, 31 December 2011, 31 December 2012 and 31 July 2013, respectlively.

No provision for Hong Kong Profits Tax has been made as the income of the Foresight Profits Group neither arises in, nor is derived from, Hong Kong.

PRC Enterprise Income Tax has been provided at the applicable income tax rate of 25% on the assessable profits of the companies in the Foresight Profits Group during each of the Relevant Periods.

The PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law requires withholding tax to be levied on distribution of profits earned by a PRC entity to a Hong Kong resident company (which is the beneficial owner of the dividend received) for profits generated after 1 January 2008 at the rate of 5%. As at 31 December 2010, 31 December 2011, 31 December 2012 and 31 July 2013, deferred tax was provided for in full in respect of any temporary differences attributable to such profits.

The provision of Land Appreciation Tax is estimated according to the requirements set forth in the relevant PRC tax laws and regulations. Land Appreciation Tax has been provided at ranges of progressive rates of the appreciation value, with certain allowable deductions including land costs, borrowings costs and the relevant property development expenditures.

(a) Directors’ and chief executive’s emoluments

No remuneration were paid or payable to any Directors and the chief executive of Foresight Profits. However, certain Directors of Foresight Profits received remuneration from SOL in respect of their services to SOL and its subsidiaries (“SOL Group”), including the Foresight Profits Group. The amounts paid by SOL have not been allocated between their services to the Foresight Profits Group, and their services to SOL Group excluding the Foresight Profits Group as the allocation of services of these Directors to the various group companies in SOL Group is not feasible.

Certain Directors of Foresight Profits were granted options to subscribe for shares of SOL under the share option schemes adopted by SOL. Their entitlement to the options relates to their services to a number of companies within the SOL Group including the Foresight Profits Group. Details of the option scheme and the Directors’ entitlement to these options were disclosed in the annual report of SOL. The value of the share options has not been allocated to the Foresight Profits Group as the allocation is not feasible.

(b) Employees’ emoluments

The emoluments of the five highest paid individuals of the the Foresight Profits Group were as follows:

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

The fair values of the Foresight Profits Group’s investment properties at 31 December 2010, 31 December 2011, 31 December 2012 and 31 July 2013 and at dates of transfer upon completion of development of investment properties under construction or development have been arrived at on the basis of valuations carried out on those dates by Knight Frank Petty Limited, independent qualified professional valuers not connected to the Foresight Profits Group whose address is 4/F, Shui On Centre, 6-8 Harbour Road, Wan Chai, Hong Kong.

For completed investment properties, the valuations have been arrived at using direct comparison method and capitalisation of net income method, where appropriate. In the valuation, the market rentals of all lettable units of the properties are assessed by reference to the rentals achieved in the lettable units as well as other lettings of similar properties in the neighbourhood. The capitalisation rate adopted is made by reference to the yield rates observed by the valuer for the similar properties in the locality and adjusted based on the valuers’ knowledge of the factors specific to the respective properties.

For investment properties under construction or development that are measured at fair value, the valuations have been arrived at assuming that the investment properties will be completed in accordance with the development proposals and the relevant approvals for the proposals have been obtained. The key inputs in the valuations include the market value of the completed investment properties, which are estimated with reference to sales evidence of similar properties in the nearest locality, with adjustments made to account for differences in locations and other factors specific to the respective properties based on the valuers’ judgement. Costs of development are also taken into account including construction costs, finance costs and professional fees, as well as developer’s profit margin which reflects the remaining risks associated with the development of the properties at the valuation date and the return that the developer would require for bringing them to completion status, which is determined by the valuers based on its analyses of recent land transactions and market value of similar completed properties in the respective locations.

For financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:

  • Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date;

  • Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

  • Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The changes in fair value of investment properties recognised in profit or loss during the Relevant Periods represent the unrealised gain relating to completed investment properties and certain investment properties under development or construction that are measured at fair value.

Fair value measurements and valuation processes

In estimating the fair value of the Foresight Profits Group’s investment properties, the management of Foresight Profits uses market-observable data to the extent it is available. Where Level 1 inputs are not available, the management of Foresight Profits engages third party qualified valuers to perform the valuation of the Foresight Profits Group’s investment properties. At the end of each reporting period, the management of Foresight Profits works closely with the qualified external valuers to establish and determine the appropriate valuation techniques and inputs for Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements. The management of Foresight Profits will first consider and adopt Level 2 inputs where inputs can be derived from observable quoted prices in the active market. When Level 2 inputs are not available, the management of Foresight Profits will adopt valuation techniques that include Level 3 inputs. Where there is a material change in the fair value of the assets, the causes of the fluctuations will be reported to the Directors of Foresight Profits.

Information about the valuation techniques and inputs in determining the fair value of the Foresight Profits Group’s investment properties are disclosed above.

The Directors of Foresight Profits review the capital structure on a yearly basis.

— II-125 —

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

Details of these financial instruments are disclosed in respective notes. The risks associated with these financial instruments and the policies on how to mitigate these risks are set out below. The management manages and monitors these exposures to ensure appropriate measures are implemented on a timely and effective manner.

The main risks arising from the Foresight Profits Group’s financial instruments are currency risk, interest rate risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Directors of Foresight Profits review and agree policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarised below.

Currency risk

The Foresight Profits Group has certain bank balances and debt obligations that are denominated in foreign currency. As a result, the Foresight Profits Group is exposed to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. The management closely monitors foreign currency exposure and will consider hedging significant foreign currency exposure should the need arise.

The carrying amounts of the Foresight Profits Group’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities at the end of each reporting period are as follows:

At
At 31 December 31 July
2010 2011 2012 2013
_RMB’million _ _RMB’million RMB’million _ RMB’million
HKD
Assets 38 1 18 18
Liabilities 1,070 1,066 688 681

Sensitivity analysis

The Foresight Profits Group is mainly exposed to the currency of HKD.

The following table details the Foresight Profits Group’s sensitivity to a 5% increase and decrease in RMB against HKD. 5% is the sensitivity rate used when reporting foreign currency risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in foreign exchange rates.

— II-126 —

APPENDIX II

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

The sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items assuming the balances at the end of the reporting period outstanding for the whole year/period and adjusts their translation at the year/period end for a 5% change in foreign currency rates. A positive number below indicates an increase in profit where RMB strengthen 5% against HKD. For a 5% weakening of RMB against HKD, there would be an equal and opposite impact on the profit, and the balances below would be negative.

Seven months
**Year ** ended 31 December ended 31 July
2010 2011 2012 2013
_RMB’million RMB’million _ RMB’million RMB’million
HKD
Profit or loss 49 51 32 32

In the management’s opinion, the sensitivity analysis is unrepresentative of the inherent foreign exchange risk as the year/period end exposure does not reflect the exposure during the year/period.

Interest rate risk

The Foresight Profits Group is exposed to fair value interest rate risk in relation to amounts due to fellow subsidiaries and pledged bank deposits at fixed rates. The Foresight Profits Group is exposed to cash flow interest rate risk in relation to the bank balance and cash, bank borrowings, amount due to immediate holding company and loan from a non-controlling shareholder at variable rates. It is the Foresight Profits Group’s policy to keep its borrowings at floating rate of interests so as to minimise the fair value interest rate risk.

Foresight Profits Group’s exposures to interest rates on financial liabilities are detailed in the liquidity risk management section of this note. The Directors of Foresight Profits considered the Foresight Profits Group’s exposure to interest rate risk of the bank balances is not significant due to their low level of interest rate. The Foresight Profits Group’s cash flow interest rate risk is mainly concentrated on the fluctuation of PBOC prescribed interest rate arising from the Foresight Profits Group’s RMB and HKD borrowings.

Sensitivity analysis

The sensitivity analyses below have been determined based on the exposure to interest rates for non-derivative instruments at the end of each reporting period. For variable-rate bank borrowings, amount due to immediate holding company and loan from a non-controlling shareholder, the analysis is prepared assuming the amount of liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period was outstanding for the whole year/period. A 100 basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates.

— II-127 —

APPENDIX II

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

If interest rates had been 100 basis points higher/lower and all other variables were held constant, the Foresight Profits Group’s profit would decrease/increase by RMB7 million; RMB9 million, RMB5 million and RMB8 million for the years ended 31 December 2010, 31 December 2011, 31 December 2012 and for the seven months ended 31 July 2013, respectively. This is mainly attributable to the Foresight Profits Group’s exposure to interest rates on its variable-rate bank borrowings and loan from a non-controlling shareholder, after taking into consideration the effect of capitalisation of interest costs.

The Foresight Profits Group’s sensitivity to interest rates has increased during the current year mainly due to the increase in variable rate debt instruments.

Credit risk

At the end of each reporting period, the Foresight Profits Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk which will cause a financial loss to the Foresight Profits Group due to failure to discharge an obligation by the counterparties is arising from the carrying amount of the respective recognised financial assets as stated in the consolidated statements of financial position.

The Foresight Profits Group’s credit risk is primarily attributable to its accounts receivable. The Foresight Profits Group has no significant concentration of credit risk, with exposure spread over a large number of counterparties and customers.

The credit risk on liquid funds is limited because the funds were deposited with various creditworthy financial institutions located in Hong Kong and in the PRC.

Liquidity risk

The Foresight Profits Group’s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and the flexibility through the use of bank borrowings, amounts due to fellow subsidiaries and immediate holding company and loan from a non-controlling shareholder. The Foresight Profits Group also monitors the current and expected liquidity requirements and its compliance with lending covenants regularly to ensure it maintains sufficient working capital and adequate committed lines of funding to meet its liquidity requirement.

The following table details the maturities of the Foresight Profits Group’s financial liabilities. The table has been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Foresight Profits Group can be required to pay. The table includes both interest and principal cash flows. To the extent that interest flows are at floating rate, the undiscounted amount is derived from interest rate at the end of each reporting period.

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

The financial year end date of all the companies comprising the Score High Group is 31 December.

The audited consolidated financial statements of Score High (the “Score High Financial Statements”) and Rightchina for each of the three years ended 31 December 2012 were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and were audited by us.

No audited financial statements have been prepared for Rightidea since the date of its incorporation as there is no statutory requirement in BVI for audited financial statements to be prepared and presented.

The statutory financial statements of Grand Hope for each of the three years ended 31 December 2012 were prepared in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“HKICPA”) and were audited by us.

The statutory financial statements of CQ Shui On Tiandi for each of the three years ended 31 December 2012 were prepared in accordance with the relevant accounting principles and financial regulations applicable to enterprises established in the PRC and were audited by 重慶康華會計師事務 所有限責任公司 (Chongqing Kanghua Certified Public Accountants), certified public accountants registered in the PRC.

For the purpose of this report, the Directors of Score High have prepared consolidated financial statements of the Score High Group for the seven months ended 31 July 2013 in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (the “31 July 2013 Financial Statements”). We have undertaken an independent audit of the 31 July 2013 Financial Statements in accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing issued by the HKICPA.

The Financial Information set out in this report has been prepared from the Score High Financial Statements and 31 July 2013 Financial Statements (collectively referred to as “Underlying Financial Statements”). We have examined the Underlying Financial Statements in accordance with the Auditing Guideline 3.340 “Prospectuses and the Reporting Accountant” as recommended by the HKICPA. No adjustments to the Underlying Financial Statements are considered necessary in the preparation of this report for inclusion in the Circular.

The Underlying Financial Statements are the responsibility of the Directors of Score High who approved their issue. The Directors of SOL are responsible for the contents of the Circular in which this report is included. It is our responsibility to compile the Financial Information set out in this report from the Underlying Financial Statements together with the notes thereon, to form an opinion on the Financial Information and to report our opinion to you.

In our opinion, the Financial Information together with the notes thereon give, for the purpose of this report, a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Score High Group as at 31 December 2010, 31 December 2011, 31 December 2012 and 31 July 2013, and of its results and cash flows for each of the Relevant Periods.

APPENDIX II

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

The comparative consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Score High Group for the seven months ended 31 July 2012 together with the notes thereon have been extracted from the Score High Group’s unaudited consolidated financial information for the same period (the “31 July 2012 Financial Information”) which was prepared by the Directors of Score High solely for the purpose of this report. We have reviewed the 31 July 2012 Financial Information in accordance with Hong Kong Standard of Review Engagements 2410 “Review of interim financial information performed by the independent auditor of the entity” issued by the HKICPA. Our review of the 31 July 2012 Financial Information consisted of making enquires, 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 on the 31 July 2012 Financial Information. Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the 31 July 2012 Financial Information is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the accounting policies consistent with those used in the preparation of the Financial Information which conform with International Financial Reporting Standards.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL INFORMATION

1. GENERAL

Score High was incorporated in the BVI with limited liability on 12 February 2003. The principal activity of Score High is investment holding.

Its parent company is Shui On Development (Holding) Limited, a limited liability company incorporated in the Cayman Islands. The Directors of Score High consider that its ultimate holding company is SOL, a limited liability company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with its shares listed on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “Stock Exchange”) until 15 March 2012. Since 16 March 2012, Shui On Company Limited (“SOCL”), a private limited liability company incorporated in BVI, has obtained the control over SOL and become the ultmate holding company of Score High. Its ultimate controlling party is Mr. Vincent H.S. Lo.

The address of the registered office of Score High is P.O. Box 957, Offshore Incorporations Centre, Road Town, Tortola, BVI and the principal place of business is 34/F, Shui On Centre, 6-8 Harbour Road, Wan Chai, Hong Kong.

The Financial Information is presented in Renminbi (“RMB”), which is also the functional currency of Score High.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The Financial Information has been prepared on a going concern basis because SOL has agreed to provide adequate funds to enable Score High to meet in full its financial obligations as they fall due for the foreseeable future.

3. APPLICATION OF INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS

For the purposes of preparing and presenting the Financial Information for each of the three years ended 31 December 2012 and the seven months ended 31 July 2013, the Score High Group has adopted all International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”) which are effective for the Score High Group’s accounting period beginning on 1 January 2013 and consistently applied throughout the Relevant Periods.

At the date of this report, the Score High Group has not early applied the following new and revised IFRSs that have been issued but are not yet effective:

Amendments to IFRS 9 and Mandatory Effective Date of IFRS 9 and Transition IFRS 7 Disclosures[2] Amendments to IFRS 10, Investment Entities[1] IFRS 12 and IAS 27 IFRS 9 Financial Instruments[2] Amendments to IAS 32 Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities[1]

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

APPENDIX II

Amendments to IAS 36 Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-Financial Assets[1] Amendments to IAS 39 Novation of Derivatives and Continuation of Hedge Accounting[1] IFRIC 21 Levies[1]

1 Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014

The Directors of Score High anticipate that the application of the new and revised IFRSs will have no material impact on the results and the financial position of the Score High Group.

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Financial Information has been prepared on the historical cost basis except for investment properties which are measured at fair values at the end of each reporting period, as explained in the accounting policies set out below.

Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services.

The Financial Information has been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out below which conform with IFRSs. In addition, the Financial Information includes applicable disclosures required by the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Stock Exchange and by the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.

The significant accounting policies adopted are set out as follows:

Basis of consolidation

The Financial Information incorporates the financial statements of Score High and entities controlled by Score High (its subsidiaries). Control is achieved when Score High:

  • has power over the investee;

  • is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and

  • has the ability to use its power to affect its returns.

Score High reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are change to one or more of the three elements of control listed above.

— II-142 —

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies in line with those used by other members of the Score High Group.

All intra-group transactions, balances, incomes and expenses are eliminated in full on consolidation.

Non-controlling interests in subsidiaries are presented separately from the Score High Group’s equity therein.

Allocation of total comprehensive income to non-controlling interests

Total comprehensive income and expense of a subsidiary is attributed to the shareholders of Score High and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.

Investment properties

Investment properties are properties held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation.

On initial recognition, investment properties are measured at cost, including any directly attributable expenditure. Construction costs incurred for investment properties under construction or development are capitalised as part of the carrying amount of the investment properties under construction or development.

Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties, including completed investment properties and certain investment properties under construction or development, are measured at their fair value at the end of each reporting period using the fair value model. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of investment property are included in profit or loss for the period in which they arise.

In circumstances where the fair value of an investment property under construction or development is not reliably determinable, such investment properties under construction or development are measured at cost less impairment, if any, until when its fair value becomes reliably determinable upon finalisation of the development plan, land and relocation cost and construction costs. An investment property is derecognised upon disposal or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use or no future economic benefits are expected from its disposals. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the property (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the profit or loss in the period in which the property is derecognised.

— II-143 —

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

APPENDIX II

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated in the consolidated statement of financial position at cost less subsequent accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost of items of property, plant and equipment over their estimated useful lives and after taking into account their estimated residual value, using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item) is included in the profit or loss in the year/period in which the item is derecognised.

Prepaid lease payments

Prepaid lease payments for leasehold land classified as operating leases are charged to the profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the land use rights.

Leasehold land and building

When a lease includes both land and building elements, the Score High Group assesses the classification of each element as a finance or an operating lease separately based on the assessment as to whether substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of each element have been transferred to the Score High Group, unless it is clear that both elements are operating leases in which case the entire lease is classified as an operating lease. Specifically, the minimum lease payments (including any lump-sum upfront payments) are allocated between the land and the building elements in proportion to the relative fair values of the leasehold interests in the land element and building element of the lease at the inception of the lease.

To the extent the allocation of the lease payments can be made reliably, interest in leasehold land that is accounted for as an operating lease is presented as “prepaid lease payments” in the consolidated statement of financial position and is released over the lease term on a straight-line basis except for those that are classified and accounted for as investment properties under the fair value model. When the lease payments cannot be allocated reliably between the land and building elements, the entire lease is generally classified as a finance lease and accounted for as property, plant and equipment.

— II-144 —

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

APPENDIX II

Properties under development for sale

Properties under development which are intended to be held for sale are carried at lower of cost and net realisable value and are shown as current assets. Cost includes the costs of land, development expenditure incurred and, where appropriate, borrowing costs capitalised during construction period.

Properties under development for sales are transferred to properties held for sale when the relevant completion certificates are issued by the respective government authorities.

Properties held for sale

Properties held for sale are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined by apportionment of the total land and development costs attributable to the properties held for sale. Net realisable value is determined based on prevailing market conditions.

Impairment

At the end of the reporting period, the Score High Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any. When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Score High Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Where a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified, corporate assets are also allocated to individual cash-generating units, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest group of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be identified.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or a cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or a cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (or a cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised as income immediately.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

APPENDIX II

Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position when a group entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition.

Financial assets

The Score High Group’s financial assets are classified as loans and receivables.

Effective interest method

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and of allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts (including all fees paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial asset, or, where appropriate, a shorter period to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.

Interest income is recognised on an effective interest basis for debt instruments.

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Subsequent to initial recognition, loans and receivables (including accounts receivable, pledged bank deposits, restricted bank deposits, bank balances and cash) are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any identified impairment losses.

Impairment of loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of the reporting period. Loans and receivables are considered to be impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the loans and receivables, the estimated future cash flows of loans and receivables have been affected.

The objective evidence of impairment could include:

  • significant financial difficulty of the issuer or counterparty; or

— II-146 —

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

APPENDIX II

  • breach of contract, such as default or delinquency in interest or principal payments; or

  • it becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial re-organisation.

For certain categories of financial assets, such as accounts receivables, assets that are assessed not to be impaired individually are, in addition, assessed for impairment on a collective basis. Objective evidence of impairment for receivables could include the Score High Group’s past experience of collecting payments, an increase in the number of delayed payments in the portfolio past the credit period, as well as observable changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with default on receivables.

The amount of impairment loss recognised is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate.

The carrying amount of loans and receivables is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of accounts receivables, where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognised in profit or loss. When the accounts receivables are considered uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited to profit or loss.

If, in a subsequent period, the amount of impairment loss of loans and receivables decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment losses was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the asset at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortised cost would have been had no impairment loss been recognised.

Financial liabilities and equity instruments

Financial liabilities and equity instruments issued by a group entity are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.

Equity instruments

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Score High Group after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by Score High are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

— II-147 —

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

APPENDIX II

Effective interest method

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments (including all fees paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial liability or, where appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.

Interest expense is recognised on an effective interest basis.

Financial liabilities

The Score High Group’s financial liabilities (including accounts payable, amount due to a related company, amount due to a non-controlling shareholder of a subsidiary, amount due to immediate holding company, amounts due to fellow subsidiaries, and bank borrowings) are subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest method.

Derecognition

The Score High Group derecognises a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another entity. If the Score High Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership and continues to control the transferred asset, the Score High Group continues to recognise the asset to the extent of its continuing involvement and recognises an associated liability.

On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognised in profit or loss.

The Score High Group derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the Score High Group’s obligations are discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised in profit or loss.

Leasing

Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risk and awards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

The Score High Group as lessor

Rental income from operating leases is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased assets and recognised on straight-line basis over the lease term.

— II-148 —

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

APPENDIX II

The Score High Group as lessee

Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets are capitalised as part of the cost of those assets. Capitalisation of such borrowing costs ceases when the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.

All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

Taxation

Taxation represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year/period. Taxable profit differs from (loss) profit before taxation as reported in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The Score High Group’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the Financial Information and the corresponding tax base used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, except where the Score High Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilise the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.

— II-149 —

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of the reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset is realised, based on tax rate (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Score High Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

For the purposes of measuring deferred tax liabilities or deferred tax assets for investment properties that are measured using the fair value model, the carrying amounts of such properties are presumed to be recovered entirely through sale, unless the presumption is rebutted. The presumption is rebutted when the investment property is depreciable and is held within a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the investment property over time, rather than through sale. If the presumption is rebutted, deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets for such investment properties are measured in accordance with the above general principles set out in IAS 12 (i.e. based on the expected manner as to how the properties will be recovered).

Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except when it relates to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the current and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

Foreign currencies

In preparing the financial statements of each individual group entities, transactions in currencies other than the functional currency of that entity (foreign currencies) are recorded in the respective functional currency (i.e. the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates) at the rates of exchanges prevailing on the dates of the transactions. At the end of the reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on that date. Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.

Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items, and on the retranslation of monetary items, are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

— II-150 —

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

APPENDIX II

Retirement benefit costs

Payments to state-managed retirement benefit schemes are recognised as an expense when employees have rendered service entitling them to the contributions.

Government grants

Government grants are recognised in profit or loss over the periods in which the Score High Group recognises as expenses the related costs for which the grants are intended to compensate. Government grants that are receivable for expenses or losses already incurred are recognised in profit or loss in the period when they become receivable.

Revenue recognition

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for goods sold and services provided in the normal course of business, net of discounts and sales related taxes.

Revenue from properties developed for sale in the ordinary business is recognised upon delivery of properties to the purchasers pursuant to the sales agreements.

Rental related income are recognised in the profit or loss when the services are rendered.

Rental income from properties under operating leases is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease.

Interest income from a financial asset is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Score High Group and the amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest income from a financial asset is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset’s net carrying amount on initial recognition.

5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY

In the process of applying the Score High Group’s accounting policies, which are described in note 4, the Directors of Score High are required to make judgements, estimate and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

— II-151 —

APPENDIX II

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Critical judgements in applying accounting policies

The following are the critical judgements, apart from those involving estimations (see below), that the Directors of Score High have made in the process of applying the Score High Group’s accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the consolidated financial statements.

Deferred taxation on investment properties

During the years ended 31 December 2012, for the purposes of measuring deferred tax liabilities or deferred tax assets arising from investment properties that are measured using the fair value model, the Directors have reviewed the Score High Group’s investment property portfolios and concluded that the Score High Group’s investment properties are held under a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the investment properties over time, rather than through sale. Therefore, in measuring the Score High Group’s deferred taxation on investment properties, the Directors have determined that the presumption that the carrying amounts of investment properties measured using the fair value model are recovered entirely through sale is rebutted. At 31 December 2010, 31 December 2011 and 31 December 2012, the Score High Group has recognised deferred tax assets of RMB18 million, deferred tax liabilities of RMB58 million and RMB204 million, respectively, in respect of the revaluation of investment properties.

During the seven months ended 31 July 2013, the Directors have revisited the investment strategies of the Score High Group and concluded that certain of the Score High Group’s investment properties are no longer held under a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the investment properties over time. Therefore, in measuring the Score High Group’s deferred taxation on investment properties, the Directors have determined that the presumption that the carrying amounts of these investment properties measured using the fair value model are recovered entirely through sale is not rebutted. As a result, the Score High Group has recognised additional deferred tax liabilities of RMB110 million as at 31 July 2013 in respect of the land appreciation tax (“Land Appreciation Tax”) on the cumulative revaluation gains of investment properties as they are subject to Land Appreciation Tax and enterprise income tax (“Enterprise Income Tax”) in the PRC upon disposal.

For the Score High Group’s remaining investment properties that are held under a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the investment properties over time, rather than through sales, the Score High Group has recognised deferred tax liabilities of RMB229 million as at 31 July 2013 in respect of the revaluation of investment properties.

— II-152 —

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

APPENDIX II

Key sources of estimation uncertainty

The following are the key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.

Investment properties

The fair values of completed investment properties and certain investment properties under construction or development that are measured using the fair value model are determined based on the valuation performed by independent professional valuers. In determining the fair value, the valuers have based on a method of valuation which involves certain estimates of market condition. In relying on the valuation report, the Directors of Score High have exercised their judgement and are satisfied that the assumptions used in the valuation reflect market condition. The basis of valuation is disclosed in note 13. Changes to these assumptions would result in changes in the fair values of the Score High Group’s investment properties and the corresponding adjustments to the amount of gain or loss reported in the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. At 31 December 2010, 31 December 2011, 31 December 2012 and 31 July 2013, the carrying amounts of investment properties that are measured at fair value are RMB1,499 million, RMB2,324 million, RMB3,617 million and RMB4,332 million, respectively.

Land appreciation tax

The Score High Group is subject to Land Appreciation Tax in the PRC. However, the implementation and settlement of the tax varies amongst different tax jurisdictions in various cities of the PRC and the Score High Group has not finalised its Land Appreciation Tax calculation and payments with any local tax authorities in the PRC. Accordingly, significant judgement is required in determining the amount of the Land Appreciation Tax and its related income tax provisions. The Score High Group recognised the Land Appreciation Tax based on management’s best estimates. The final tax outcome could be different from the amounts that were initially recorded, and these differences will impact the income tax provisions in the periods in which such tax is finalised with local tax authorities. During the years ended 31 December 2010, 31 December 2011, 31 December 2012 and the seven months ended 31 July 2013 and 31 July 2012, the Score High Group has recognised Land Appreciation Tax of nil, RMB12 million, RMB33 million, RMB139 million and RMB19 million (unaudited), respectively.

This is the measure reported to the chief operating decision makers who are the Directors of Score High for the purpose of resource allocation and performance assessment.

For the purpose of monitoring segment performances and allocating resources between segments:

  • all assets are allocated to reportable segments other than deferred tax assets, pledged bank deposits, restricted bank deposits, bank balances and cash; and

  • all liabilities are allocated to reportable segments other than amount due to a related company, amount due to a non-controlling shareholder of a subsidiary, amount due to immediate holding company, amounts due to fellow subsidiaries, bank borrowings, tax liabilities and deferred tax liabilities.

All the Score High Group’s turnover and contribution to operating profit is attributable to customers in the PRC based on the location of the operation. Accordingly, no analysis of geographical segment is presented.

APPENDIX II

The investment properties are all situated in the PRC and held under medium term leases. All the completed investment properties are rented out under operating leases, except for completed investment properties with a carrying amount of RMB2,300 million as at 31 July 2013 which are held for capital appreciation purposes.

The fair values of the Score High Group’s investment properties at 31 December 2010, 31 December 2011, 31 December 2012 and 31 July 2013, and at the dates of transfer upon completion of development of investment properties under construction or development, and at the dates of transfer to property, plant and equipment and prepaid lease payments, have been arrived at on the basis of valuations carried out on those dates by Knight Frank Petty Limited, an independent qualified professional valuers not connected to the Score High Group whose address is 4/F, Shui On Centre, 6-8 Harbour Road, Wan Chai, Hong Kong.

During the year ended 31 December 2010, investment properties under construction or development with a carrying amount of RMB516 million are transferred to properties under development for sale upon the finalisation of development plan, where upon the Score High Group has determined that the properties would be developed with a view to sale.

For completed investment properties, the valuations have been arrived at using direct comparison method and capitalisation of net income method, where appropriate. In the valuation, the market rentals of all lettable units of the properties are assessed by reference to the rentals achieved in the lettable units as well as other lettings of similar properties in the neighbourhood. The capitalisation rate adopted is made by reference to the yield rates observed by the valuer for the similar properties in the locality and adjusted based on the valuers’ knowledge of the factors specific to the respective properties.

For investment properties under construction or development that are measured at fair value, the valuations have been arrived at assuming that the investment properties will be completed in accordance with the development proposals and the relevant approvals for the proposals have been obtained. The key inputs in the valuations include the market value of the completed investment properties, which are estimated with reference to sales evidence of similar properties in the nearest locality, with adjustments made to account for differences in locations and other factors specific to the respective properties based on the valuers’ judgement. Costs of development are also taken into account including construction costs, finance costs and professional fees, as well as developer’s profit margin which reflects the remaining risks associated with the development of the properties at the valuation date and the return that the developer would require for bringing them to completion status, which is determined by the valuers based on its analyses of recent land transactions and market value of similar completed properties in the respective locations.

— II-172 —

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

APPENDIX II

For financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:

  • Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date;

  • Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

  • Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The major inputs used in the fair value measurement of investment properties are set out below:

Fair value measurements and valuation processes

In estimating the fair value of the Score High Group’s investment properties, the management of Score High uses market-observable data to the extent it is available. Where Level 1 inputs are not available, the management of Score High engages third party qualified valuers to perform the valuation of the Score High Group’s investment properties. At the end of each reporting period, the management of Score High works closely with the qualified external valuers to establish and determine the appropriate valuation techniques and inputs for Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements. The management of Score High will first consider and adopt Level 2 inputs where inputs can be derived from observable quoted prices in the active market. When Level 2 inputs are not available, the management of Score High will adopt valuation techniques that include Level 3 inputs. Where there is a material change in the fair value of the assets, the causes of the fluctuations will be reported to the Directors of Score High.

Information about the valuation techniques and inputs in determining the fair value of the Score High Group’s investment properties are disclosed above.

b. Financial risk management objectives and policies

The Score High Group’s major financial instruments include accounts receivable, pledged bank deposits, restricted bank deposits, bank balances and cash, accounts payable, amount due to a related company, amount due to a non-controlling shareholder of a subsidiary, amount due to immediate holding company, amounts due to fellow subsidiaries, and bank borrowings.

Details of these financial instruments are disclosed in respective notes. The risks associated with these financial instruments and the policies on how to mitigate these risks are set out below. The management manages and monitors these exposures to ensure appropriate measures are implemented on a timely and effective manner.

The main risks arising from the Score High Group’s financial instruments are interest rate risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Directors review and agree to policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarised below.

Interest rate risk

The Score High Group is exposed to cash flow interest rate risk in relation to its restricted bank deposits, bank balances, bank borrowings and amounts due to certain fellow subsidiaries which are carried at variable interest rates. The Score High Group is also exposed to fair value interest rate risk in relation to its pledged bank deposits and amounts due to certain fellow subsidiaries which are carried at fixed interest rates.

— II-195 —

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

The management considered that the exposure to cash flow interest rate risk in relation to its restricted bank deposits and bank balances is minimal, no sensitivity analysis is presented for each of the reporting period.

The Score High Group’s exposures to interest rates on financial liabilities are detailed in the liquidity risk management section of this note. The Score High Group’s cash flow interest rate risk is mainly concentrated on the fluctuation of PBOC prescribed interest rate arising from the Score High Group’s RMB bank borrowings and amounts due to certain fellow subsidiaries.

Sensitivity analysis

The sensitivity analyses below have been determined based on the exposure to interest rates for non-derivative instruments at the end of each reporting period. For variable-rate bank borrowings and amounts due to fellow subsidiaries, the analysis is prepared assuming the amount of liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period was outstanding for the whole year. A 100 basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates.

If interest rates had been 100 basis points higher/lower and all other variables were held constant, the Score High Group loss would increase/decrease by RMB3 million for the year ended 31 December 2010, and the Score High Group’s profit would decrease/increase by RMB6 million, RMB7 million and RMB9 million for the years ended 31 December 2011, 31 December 2012 and the seven months ended 31 July 2013, respectively. This is mainly attributable to the Score High Group’s exposure to interest rates on its variable-rate bank borrowings and amounts due to fellow subsidiaries, after taking into consideration the effect of capitalisation of interest costs.

Credit risk

At the end of each reporting period, the Score High Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk which will cause a financial loss to the Score High Group due to failure to discharge an obligation by the counterparties is arising from the carrying amount of the respective recognised financial assets as stated in the consolidated statements of financial position.

The Score High Group’s credit risk is primarily attributable to its accounts receivable. The Score High Group has no significant concentration of credit risk, with exposure spread over a large number of counterparties and customers, except for as at 31 July 2013 where the Score High Group has trade receivable of RMB212 million due from the largest customer which operates in the financial institution sector in the PRC. The Directors of Score High considers that there is no significant credit risk arising from this major customer given its strong financial background and good creditability.

The credit risk on liquid funds is limited because the funds were deposited with various creditworthy financial institutions located in Hong Kong and in the PRC.

Set out below is the audited financial report of Rightchina for each of the three years ended 31 December 2012 and the seven months ended 31 July 2013.

==> picture [75 x 58] intentionally omitted <==

28 October 2013

The Directors Shui On Land Limited

Dear Sirs,

We set out below our report on the financial information (the “Financial Information”) relating to Rightchina Limited (“Rightchina”) for each of the three years ended 31 December 2012 and the seven months ended 31 July 2013 (the “Relevant Periods”) for the inclusion in the circular of Shui On Land Limited (“SOL”) dated 28 October 2013 (the “Circular”) issued in connection with the Swap Agreement and the JV Agreement, as defined in the Circular.

Rightchina was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands (“BVI”) with limited liability on 2 July 2008. The principal activity of Rightchina is investment holding.

At 31 December 2010, 31 December 2011, 31 December 2012, 31 July 2013 and date of this report, Rightchina is the holder of Class B ordinary shares of Grand Hope Limited (“Grand Hope”), a limited liability company incorporated in Hong Kong on 14 March 2003, which has 99% equity interest in Chongqing Shui On Tiandi Property Development Co. Ltd. (“CQ Shui On Tiandi”), a company established in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) on 21 November 2003. Rightidea Limited (“Rightidea”), a fellow subsidiary of Rightchina, is the holder of Class A ordinary shares of Grand Hope.

Rightchina, the holder of Class B ordinary shares of Grand Hope, has 99% equity interest in a development project in Chongqing (the “SHR Project”) through CQ Shui On Tiandi, whereas, Rightidea, the holder of Class A ordinary shares of Grand Hope, has 99% equity interest in all projects of CQ Shui On Tiandi in Chongqing other than the SHR Project (the “Normal Asset Project”) through CQ Shui On Tiandi.

Pursuant to the shareholders’ agreement of Grand Hope, Rightchina has the power to appoint and remove all members of the committee of the SHR Project, as established by the Board of Directors of Grand Hope, that has the power to direct the relevant activities of the SHR Project, hence Rightchina has sole control over the SHR Project. On the other hand, Rightidea has the power to appoint and remove all members of the committee of the Normal Asset Project, as established by the Board of Directors of Grand Hope, that has the power to direct the relevant activities of the Normal Asset Project, hence Rightidea has sole control over the Normal Asset Project.

— II-203 —

APPENDIX II

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

In addition, Rightchina shall only be entitled to participate in the profits and losses of the SHR Project, receive a dividend exclusively from profits attributable to the SHR Project, and receive distribution or proceeds arising from the disposal of the SHR Project upon dissolution, winding up or liquidation of Grand Hope. None of the returns derived from the SHR Project can be used by Rightidea and none of the liabilities of CQ Shui On Tiandi, other than the liabilities arising out of the SHR Project, are payable from the assets of the SHR Project. Accordingly, the related assets, liabilities, income and expenses of SHR Project are consolidated in the financial statements of Rightchina.

The financial year end date of Rightchina is 31 December.

The audited consolidated financial statements of Rightchina for each of the three years ended 31 December 2012 were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (the “Rightchina Financial Statements”) and were audited by us.

For the purpose of this report, the Directors of Rightchina have prepared consolidated financial statements of Rightchina for the seven months ended 31 July 2013 in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (the “31 July 2013 Financial Statements”). We have undertaken an independent audit of the 31 July 2013 Financial Statements in accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“HKICPA”).

The Financial Information set out in this report has been prepared from the Rightchina Financial Statements and 31 July 2013 Financial Statements (collectively referred to as “Underlying Financial Statements”). We have examined the Underlying Financial Statements in accordance with the Auditing Guideline 3.340 “Prospectuses and the Reporting Accountant” as recommended by the HKICPA. No adjustments to the Underlying Financial Statements are considered necessary in the preparation of this report for inclusion in the Circular.

The Underlying Financial Statements are the responsibility of the Directors of Rightchina who approved their issue. The Directors of SOL are responsible for the contents of the Circular in which this report is included. It is our responsibility to compile the Financial Information set out in this report from the Underlying Financial Statements together with the notes thereon, to form an opinion on the Financial Information and to report our opinion to you.

In our opinion, the Financial Information together with the notes thereon give, for the purpose of this report, a true and fair view of the state of affairs of Rightchina as at 31 December 2010, 31 December 2011, 31 December 2012 and 31 July 2013, and of its results and cash flows for each of the Relevant Periods.

APPENDIX II

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

The comparative consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of Rightchina for the seven months ended 31 July 2012 together with the notes thereon have been extracted from Rightchina’s unaudited consolidated financial information for the same period (the “31 July 2012 Financial Information”) which was prepared by the Directors of Rightchina solely for the purpose of this report. We have reviewed the 31 July 2012 Financial Information in accordance with Hong Kong Standard of Review Engagements 2410 “Review of interim financial information performed by the independent auditor of the entity” issued by the HKICPA. Our review of the 31 July 2012 Financial Information consisted of making enquires, 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 on the 31 July 2012 Financial Information. Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the 31 July 2012 Financial Information is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the accounting policies consistent with those used in the preparation of the Financial Information which conform with International Financial Reporting Standards.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL INFORMATION

1. GENERAL

Rightchina was incorporated in the BVI with limited liability on 2 July 2008. The principal activity of Rightchina is investment holding.

Its parent company is Score High Limited, a limited liability company incorporated in BVI. The Directors of Rightchina consider that its ultimate holding company is SOL, a limited liability company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with its shares listed on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “Stock Exchange”) until 15 March 2012. Since 16 March 2012, Shui On Company Limited (“SOCL”), a private limited liability company incorporated in BVI, has obtained the control over SOL and become the ultmate holding company of Rightchina. Its ultimate controlling party is Mr. Vincent H.S. Lo.

The address of the registered office of Rightchina is P.O. Box 957, Offshore Incorporations Centre, Road Town, Tortola, BVI and the principal place of business is 34/F, Shui On Centre, 6-8 Harbour Road, Wan Chai, Hong Kong.

The Financial Information is presented in Renminbi (“RMB”), which is also the functional currency of Rightchina.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The Financial Information has been prepared on a going concern basis because SOL has agreed to provide adequate funds to enable Rightchina to meet in full its financial obligations as they fall due for the foreseeable future.

3. APPLICATION OF INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS

For the purposes of preparing and presenting the Financial Information for each of the three years ended 31 December 2012 and the seven months ended 31 July 2013, Rightchina has adopted all International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”) which are effective for Rightchina’s accounting period beginning on 1 January 2013 and consistently applied throughout the Relevant Periods.

At the date of this report, Rightchina has not early applied the following new and revised IFRSs that have been issued but are not yet effective:

Amendments to IFRS 9 and Mandatory Effective Date of IFRS 9 and Transition IFRS 7 Disclosures[2] Amendments to IFRS 10, Investment Entities[1] IFRS 12 and IAS 27 IFRS 9 Financial Instruments[2] Amendments to IAS 32 Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities[1] Amendments to IAS 36 Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-Financial Assets[1] Amendments to IAS 39 Novation of Derivatives and Continuation of Hedge Accounting[1] IFRIC 21 Levies[1]

— II-211 —

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

APPENDIX II

  • 1 Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014 2 Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015

The Directors of Rightchina anticipate that the application of the new and revised IFRSs will have no material impact on the results and the financial position of Rightchina.

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Financial Information has been prepared on the historical cost basis except for investment properties which are measured at fair values at the end of each reporting period, as explained in the accounting policies set out below.

Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services.

The Financial Information has been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out below which conform with IFRSs. In addition, the Financial Information includes applicable disclosures required by the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Stock Exchange and by the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.

The significant accounting policies adopted are set out as follows:

Basis of consolidation

The Financial Information incorporates the financial statements of Rightchina and financial information of the SHR Project.

Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial information of the SHR Project to bring its accounting policies in line with those used by Rightchina.

All intra-group transactions, balances, incomes and expenses are eliminated in full on consolidation.

Non-controlling interests are presented separately from Rightchina’s equity therein.

Investment properties

Investment properties are properties held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation.

On initial recognition, investment properties are measured at cost, including any directly attributable expenditure. Construction costs incurred for investment properties under construction or development are capitalised as part of the carrying amount of the investment properties under construction or development.

— II-212 —

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

APPENDIX II

Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are measured at their fair value at the end of each reporting period using the fair value model. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of investment property are included in profit or loss for the period in which they arise.

An investment property is derecognised upon disposal or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use or no future economic benefits are expected from its disposals. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the property (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the profit or loss in the period in which the property is derecognised.

Impairment

At the end of the reporting period, Rightchina reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any. When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, Rightchina estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Where a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified, corporate assets are also allocated to individual cash-generating units, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest group of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be identified.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or a cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or a cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (or a cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised as income immediately.

Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised on the consolidated statement of financial position when a group entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition.

— II-213 —

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

APPENDIX II

Financial assets

Rightchina’s financial assets are classified as loans and receivables.

Effective interest method

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and of allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts (including all fees paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial asset, or, where appropriate, a shorter period to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.

Interest income is recognised on an effective interest basis for debt instruments.

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Subsequent to initial recognition, loans and receivables (including pledged bank deposits, bank balances and cash) are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any identified impairment losses.

Impairment of loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of the reporting period. Loans and receivables are considered to be impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the loans and receivables, the estimated future cash flows of loans and receivables have been affected.

The objective evidence of impairment could include:

  • significant financial difficulty of the issuer or counterparty; or

  • breach of contract, such as default or delinquency in interest or principal payments; or

  • it becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial re-organisation.

The amount of impairment loss recognised is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate.

The carrying amount of loans and receivables is reduced by the impairment loss directly. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited to profit or loss.

— II-214 —

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

APPENDIX II

If, in a subsequent period, the amount of impairment loss of loans and receivables decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment losses was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the asset at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortised cost would have been had no impairment loss been recognised.

Financial liabilities and equity instruments

Financial liabilities and equity instruments issued by a group entity are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.

Equity instruments

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of Rightchina after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by Rightchina are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

Effective interest method

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments (including all fees paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial liability or, where appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.

Interest expense is recognised on an effective interest basis.

Financial liabilities

Rightchina’s financial liabilities (including construction cost and other payables, amounts due to fellow subsidiaries, amount due to an intermediate holding company, amount due to immediate holding company, loans from a fellow subsidiary, and bank borrowings) are subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest method.

Derecognition

Rightchina derecognises a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another entity. If Rightchina neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership and continues to control the transferred asset, Rightchina continues to recognise the asset to the extent of its continuing involvement and recognises an associated liability.

— II-215 —

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognised in profit or loss.

Rightchina derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, Rightchina’s obligations are discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised in profit or loss.

Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets are capitalised as part of the cost of those assets. Capitalisation of such borrowing costs ceases when the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.

All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

Taxation

Taxation represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year/period. Taxable profit differs from (loss) profit before taxation as reported in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. Rightchina’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the Financial Information and the corresponding tax base used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, except where Rightchina is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilise the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.

— II-216 —

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of the reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset is realised, based on tax rate (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which Rightchina expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

For the purposes of measuring deferred tax liabilities or deferred tax assets for investment properties that are measured using the fair value model, the carrying amounts of such properties are presumed to be recovered entirely through sale, unless the presumption is rebutted. The presumption is rebutted when the investment property is depreciable and is held within a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the investment property over time, rather than through sale. If the presumption is rebutted, deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets for such investment properties are measured in accordance with the above general principles set out in IAS 12 (i.e. based on the expected manner as to how the properties will be recovered).

Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except when it relates to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the current and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

Foreign currencies

In preparing the financial statements of each individual group entities, transactions in currencies other than the functional currency of that entity (foreign currencies) are recorded in the respective functional currency (i.e. the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates) at the rates of exchanges prevailing on the dates of the transactions. At the end of the reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on that date. Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.

Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items, and on the retranslation of monetary items, are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

APPENDIX II

5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY

In the process of applying Rightchina’s accounting policies, which are described in note 4, the Directors of Rightchina are required to make judgements, estimate and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Critical judgements in applying accounting policies

The following are the critical judgements, apart from those involving estimations (see below), that the Directors of Rightchina have made in the process of applying Rightchina’s accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the consolidated financial statements.

Deferred taxation on investment properties

During the three years ended 31 December 2012, for the purposes of measuring deferred tax liabilities or deferred tax assets arising from investment properties that are measured using the fair value model, the Directors have reviewed Rightchina’s investment property portfolios and concluded that Rightchina’s investment properties are held under a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the investment properties over time, rather than through sale. Therefore, in measuring Rightchina’s deferred taxation on investment properties, the Directors have determined that the presumption that the carrying amounts of investment properties measured using the fair value model are recovered entirely through sale is rebutted. At 31 December 2010, 31 December 2011 and 31 December 2012, Rightchina has recognised deferred tax assets of RMB33 million, deferred tax liabilities of RMB29 million and RMB114 million, respectively, in respect of the revaluation of investment properties.

During the seven months ended 31 July 2013, the Directors have revisited the investment strategies of Rightchina and concluded that Rightchina’s investment properties are no longer held under a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the investment properties over time. Therefore, in measuring Rightchina’s deferred taxation on investment properties, the Directors have determined that the presumption that the carrying amounts of investment properties measured using the fair value model are recovered entirely through sale is not rebutted. As a result, Rightchina has recognised additional deferred tax liabilities

— II-218 —

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

of RMB110 million as at 31 July 2013 in respect of the land appreciation tax (“Land Appreciation Tax”) on the cumulative revaluation gains of investment properties as they are subject to Land Appreciation Tax and enterprise income tax (“Enterprise Income Tax”) in the PRC upon disposal.

Key sources of estimation uncertainty

The following are the key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.

Investment properties

The fair values of completed investment properties and investment properties under construction or development that are measured using the fair value model are determined based on the valuation performed by independent professional valuers. In determining the fair value, the valuers have based on a method of valuation which involves certain estimates of market condition. In relying on the valuation report, the Directors of Rightchina have exercised their judgement and are satisfied that the assumptions used in the valuation reflect market condition. The basis of valuation is disclosed in note 11. Changes to these assumptions would result in changes in the fair values of Rightchina’s investment properties and the corresponding adjustments to the amount of gain or loss reported in the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. At 31 December 2010, 31 December 2011, 31 December 2012 and 31 July 2013, the carrying amounts of investment properties are RMB1,046 million, RMB1,808 million, RMB2,890 million and RMB3,572 million, respectively.

6. SEGMENT INFORMATION

No segment information is presented as property investment is the only operating segment of Rightchina.

Segment results represent the profit or loss for the three years ended 31 December 2012 and the seven months ended 31 July 2013 and 31 July 2012 as shown in the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

Segment assets represent Rightchina’s investment properties, which are located in the PRC, without allocating pledged bank deposits, deferred tax assets and bank balances and cash, whereas segment liabilities represent Rightchina’s construction cost and other payables, without allocating amounts due to fellow subsidiaries, amount due to an intermediate holding company, amount due to immediate holding company, loans from a fellow subsidiary, bank borrowings and deferred tax liabilities.

This is the measure reported to the chief operating decision makers who are the Directors of Rightchina for the purpose of performance assessment.

9. DIRECTORS’ AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE’S REMUNERATION

No remuneration were paid or payable to any Directors and the chief executive of Rightchina. However, certain Directors of Rightchina received remuneration from SOL in respect of their services to SOL and its subsidiaries (“SOL Group”), including Rightchina. The amounts paid by SOL have not been allocated between their services to Rightchina, and their services to SOL Group excluding Rightchina as the allocation of services of these Directors to the various group companies in SOL Group is not feasible.

Certain Directors of Rightchina were granted options to subscribe for shares of SOL under the share option schemes adopted by SOL. Their entitlement to the options relates to their services to a number of companies within the SOL Group including Rightchina. Details of the options schemes and the Directors’ entitlements to these options were disclosed in the annual report of SOL. The value of the share option has not been allocated to Rightchina as the allocation is not feasible.

APPENDIX II

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

For investment properties under construction or development that are measured at fair value, the valuations have been arrived at assuming that the investment properties will be completed in accordance with the development proposals and the relevant approvals for the proposals have been obtained. The key inputs in the valuations include the market value of the completed investment properties, which are estimated with reference to sales evidence of similar properties in the nearest locality, with adjustments made to account for differences in locations and other factors specific to the respective properties based on the valuers’ judgement. Costs of development are also taken into account including construction costs, finance costs and professional fees, as well as developer’s profit margin which reflects the remaining risks associated with the development of the properties at the valuation date and the return that the developer would require for bringing them to completion status, which is determined by the valuers based on its analyses of recent land transactions and market value of similar completed properties in the respective locations.

For financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:

  • Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date;

  • Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

  • Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

Fair value measurements and valuation processes

In estimating the fair value of Rightchina’s investment properties, the management of Rightchina uses market-observable data to the extent it is available. Where Level 1 inputs are not available, the management of Rightchina engages third party qualified valuers to perform the valuation of Rightchina’s investment properties. At the end of each reporting period, the management of Rightchina works closely with the qualified external valuers to establish and determine the appropriate valuation techniques and inputs for Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements. The management of Rightchina will first consider and adopt Level 2 inputs where inputs can be derived from observable quoted prices in the active market. When Level 2 inputs are not available, the management of Rightchina will adopt valuation techniques that include Level 3 inputs. Where there is a material change in the fair value of the assets, the causes of the fluctuations will be reported to the Directors of Rightchina.

Information about the valuation techniques and inputs in determining the fair value of Rightchina’s investment properties are disclosed above.

Details of these financial instruments are disclosed in respective notes. The risks associated with these financial instruments and the policies on how to mitigate these risks are set out below. The management manages and monitors these exposures to ensure appropriate measures are implemented on a timely and effective manner.

— II-234 —

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP COMPANIES

The main risks arising from Rightchina’s financial instruments are interest rate risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Directors review and agree to policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarised below.

Interest rate risk

Rightchina is exposed to cash flow interest rate risk in relation to its bank balances and bank borrowings which are carried at variable interest rates. Rightchina is also exposed to fair value interest rate risk in relation to its pledged bank deposits and loans from a fellow subsidiary which are carried at fixed interest rates.

The management considered that the exposure to cash flow interest rate risk in relation to its bank balances is minimal, no sensitivity analysis is presented for each of the reporting period.

Rightchina’s exposures to interest rates on financial liabilities are detailed in the liquidity risk management section of this note. Rightchina’s cash flow interest rate risk is mainly concentrated on the fluctuation of PBOC prescribed interest rate arising from Rightchina’s RMB bank borrowings.

Sensitivity analysis

The sensitivity analyses below have been determined based on the exposure to interest rates for non-derivative instruments at the end of each reporting period. For variable-rate bank borrowings, the analysis is prepared assuming the amount of liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period was outstanding for the whole year. A 100 basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates.

If interest rates had been 100 basis points higher/lower and all other variables were held constant, the interest capitalised in investment properties would increase/decrease by RMB2 million, RMB8 million, RMB8 million and RMB6 million for the years ended 31 December 2010, 31 December 2011, 31 December 2012 and the seven months ended 31 July 2013, respectively.

Credit risk

At the end of each reporting period, Rightchina’s maximum exposure to credit risk which will cause a financial loss to Rightchina due to failure to discharge an obligation by the counterparties is arising from the carrying amount of the respective recognised financial assets as stated in the consolidated statements of financial position.

Rightchina’s principal financial assets are pledged bank deposits, bank balances and cash, which represent Rightchina’s maximum exposure to credit risk in relation to financial assets.

The credit risk on liquid funds is limited because the funds were deposited with various creditworthy financial institutions located in Hong Kong and in the PRC.

(10) Prospects

Fieldcity Investments

Upon the completion of Acquisition, Fieldcity Investment will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company will hold 100% equity interests in the Wuhan Tiandi (“WHTD”) project.

The WHTD project is located in Wuhan, which is the capital of Hubei Province and a major transportation hub in China located between Shanghai and Chongqing, at the confluence of the Yangtze River and the Han River, a tributary of the Yangtze River. The site of the project is located in Hankou’s Jiang’an District, at a prominent position along the Yangtze River where the city’s second bridge has been built connecting Hankou to Wuchang. The WHTD project is a city-core development project which plans to develop a large-scale, mixed-use urban property development comprising residential lots, office buildings, retail, food and beverage and entertainment facilities on two main sites, Site A and Site B with an estimated total leasable and saleable GFA of approximately 1.4 million sq.m. upon completion. Construction of the project commenced in the first quarter of 2006 and as of 30 June 2013, approximately 331,000 sq.m. of GFA had been sold.

The economic prospects of Wuhan have been enhanced by the national strategic development program to establish a major regional urban growth pole in Central China. Foreign direct investment (FDI) in Wuhan rose by 17.3% y-o-y in Q1 2013, compared to an increase of only 1.44% at the national-wide level.

Through preserving local historical architecture while injecting new commercial value, the WHTD project has now become a landmark in Wuhan. We believe due to the superior geographical location of the project, the well-receipt of the project’s residential developments by the market and aided by the abovementioned enhancement in the economic prospects of Wuhan, the project will continue to deliver promising results throughout its life of development.

Foresight Profits

Upon the completion of Acquisition, Foresight Profits will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company will hold 99% equity interests in the Rui Hong Xin Cheng (“RHXC”) project.

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE TARGET COMPANIES

to the other districts of Shanghai. Upon completion, the RHXC project will comprise a total leasable and saleable GFA of approximately 1.7 million sq.m., of which approximately 451,000 sq.m. of GFA had been sold as at 30 June 2013.

The RHXC project comprises twelve land parcels, of which Lot 5 (Phase 1), Lot 149 (Phase 2), Lot 8 (Phase 3) and Lot 4 (Phase 4) have been completed as at 30 June 2013. Since 1998, the Foresight Group has developed, sold and delivered more than 451,000 sq.m. in GFA of residential units developed in four phases. The ASP of contracted sales has progressively risen from RMB16,600 per sq.m. in 2007 to RMB46,100 per sq.m. in the first half of 2013. Residential Phase 5 (Lot 6) is under construction, with planned residential GFA of approximately 118,000 sq.m. and a retail GFA of 19,000 sq.m. The first and second batches of pre-sale of Residential Phase 5 (Lot 6) were held in December 2012 and March 2013 respectively, achieved a total contracted sales amount of RMB3,487 million up to 30 June 2013. The remaining two towers are scheduled for pre-sale in 2013. Phase 5 is scheduled to be delivered in 2014.

On the commercial side, 47,000 sq.m. of GFA have been developed into retail podiums and retained in the Foresight Group’s investment property portfolio.

As Shanghai stands to benefit from China’s on-going financial liberalization and reform, and the Hongkou District where the RHXC project is situated, is currently being transformed into a modern, integrated district with bustling commerce, an environment that accentuates quality of life, unique culture and efficient public services, evidenced by our previous encouraging sales, we believe the RHXC project will continue to deliver significant value throughout its life of development.

Score High

Upon the completion of Acquisition, Score High will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company will hold 99% equity interests in the Chongqing Tiandi (“CQTD”) project.

The CQTD project is situated on a hillside on the south bank of the Jialing River, just upstream of the confluence of Yangtze Rivers. The CQTD project a city-core development project comprising office buildings, exhibition and conference facilities, retail and entertainment outlets, hotels and residential properties. Upon completion, we expect this project to have a total leasable and saleable GFA of approximately 2.8 million sq.m., of which approximately 504,000 sq.m. had been sold as at 30 June 2013.

The CQTD project will be integrated with Chongqing’s nearby central business district via a light rail system and major roads. The main features are expected to include a commercial core comprising business facilities such as Grade A office buildings, exhibition centre, a large residential area, entertainment and cultural properties, as well as a man-made lake.

Chongqing, being the principal economic hub of West China, is continuing its robust economic growth. In H1 2013, the municipality achieved a growth rate of 12.4%, ranked second amongst

APPENDIX III MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE TARGET COMPANIES

provincial level cities. China’s New Urbanization Strategy is a key driver behind Chongqing’s rapid development given its currently low level of urbanization. We expect CQTD project will help support and service Chongqing’s extensive manufacturing and service industries and be benefited from Chongqing’s prominent economic growth.

Rightchina

Upon the completion of Acquisition, Rightchina will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company will hold 99% equity interests in the Super High Rise project.

The Super High Rise project is situated in the eastern of CQTD project, on the south bank of the Jialing River. The Super High Rise project is a city-core development project comprising three office buildings, retail, luxury-standard hotel and entertainment facilities located in Yuzhong District, Chongqing City. Upon completion, we expect this project to have a total leasable and saleable GFA of approximately 518,000 sq.m., of which approximately 119,000 sq.m. of Grade A office space and 11,000 sq.m. of ancillary retail space had been completed in the first half of year 2013. We expect this project will be developed into a high-quality commercial zone to support Chongqing’s extensive modern industrial and agricultural sectors. With the robust economic growth of Chongqing, and the scarcity of such product in the area, we anticipate The Super High Rise project will deliver considerable value after completion.

Portspin

Upon the completion of Disposal, Portspin will become a joint venture of the Company and the Company will hold about 18% equity interests in the TPQ Lot 116 project.

The TPQ Lot 116 project is situated in the southeast of the Taipingqiao project of which is a large-scale city-core development project consisting of offices, residential, commercial, retail, hotel, entertainment and cultural properties in management of the Company. It is an up-market residential properties development project and upon completion, we expect this project to have a total leasable and saleable GFA of approximately 90,000 sq.m. Construction of the TPQ Lot 116 project will commence following the completion of the relocation of existing residents, which is expected to be in the second half of year 2013.

Dear Sirs

Various Properties in the People’s Republic of China

In accordance with your instructions for us to value the captioned property interests held by Shui On Land Limited (hereinafter referred to as the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (hereinafter together referred to as the “Group”) in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”), we confirm that we have carried out inspections, made relevant enquiries and obtained such further information as we consider necessary for the purpose of providing you with our opinion of the market values of the property interests as at 31 July 2013.

Basis of Valuation

Our valuation is our opinion of the market value of the property interest which we would define as “the estimated amount for which an asset or liability should exchange on the valuation date between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s-length transaction after proper marketing and where the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion.”

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

Valuation Methodology

We have valued property nos. 1 to 11 in Group I which are held by the Group for investment purpose and property no. 12 in Group II which is held by the Group by reference to sales evidence as available on the market, and where appropriate, on the basis of capitalisation of the rental incomes as shown on the documents handed to us by the Group. We have allowed for outgoings, and where appropriate, made provisions for reversionary income potential.

We have valued property nos. 13 to 17 in Group III which are held by the Group for sale by using “Direct Comparison Approach” with reference to market comparable transactions and assumed sale of property with the benefit of vacant possession.

For property nos. 18 to 24 in Group IV which are held by the Group under development, the valuation has been arrived by adopting market-based valuation approach with reference to sales evidence of comparable properties with adjustments made to account for any difference. We have assumed that the properties will be completed in accordance with the development proposals provided to us and the relevant approvals for the proposals have been obtained. We have also taken into account the cost of development including construction costs, finance costs, professional fees and developer’s profit which duly reflects the risks associated with the development of the properties.

Title Documents and Encumbrances

We have been provided with copies of extracts of title documents relating to the properties. However, we have not inspected the original documents to verify ownership or to verify any amendments which may not appear on the copies handed to us. We have relied on the information given by the Group and its legal adviser, Jin Mao PRC Lawyers, regarding the title and other legal matters relating to the properties.

No allowance has been made in our valuation for any charges, mortgages or amounts owing on any property nor for any expenses or taxation which may be incurred in effecting a sale. Unless otherwise stated, it is assumed that the properties are free from encumbrances, restriction and outgoings of an onerous nature which could affect their values.

Source of Information

We have relied to a considerable extent on the information given by the Group and the legal opinion of the Group’s legal adviser. We have no reason to doubt the truth and accuracy of the information provided to us by the Group and/ or its PRC legal adviser which is material to the valuation. We have accepted advice given by the Group on such matters as planning approvals or statutory notices, easements, tenure, ownership, completion dates of buildings, particulars of occupancy, tenancy details, floor and site areas, development proposals, construction costs and all other relevant matters. Dimensions, measurements and areas included in the valuation report are based on information contained in the documents provided to us and are therefore only approximations. We have not been

able to carry out on-site measurements to verify the correctness of the site and floor areas of the properties and we have assumed that the site and the floor areas shown on the documents handed to us are correct. We were also advised by the Group that no material facts have been omitted from the information provided.

Inspection and Structural Condition

We have inspected the exterior and, where possible, the interior of the properties valued and the inspections were carried out by our Sunny Han, Clement Leung and Gary Lau in August 2013 and September 2013. However, we have not carried out site investigations to determine the suitability of ground conditions and services, etc for any future developments. Our valuations are prepared on the assumption that these aspects are satisfactory. Moreover, no structural survey has been made, but in the course of our inspection, we did not note any serious defects. We are not, however, able to report that the properties are free from rot, infestation or any other structural defects. No tests were carried out on any of the services.
