New Contract Value and Backlog

Representative New Contracts

New contract value represents the value of the contracts the Group entered into during a specified period. The value of a contract is the amount that the Group expects to receive under the terms of the contract if the contract is performed in accordance with its terms. During the three months ended 30 September 2015, the total value of new contracts entered into by the Group amounted to RMB5.116 billion, and contracts that are representative are as follows:

  1. a contract for Package I of the construction and installation of cracking unit for the Shenhua Ningxia project of the deep processing and comprehensive utilisation of coal chemicals by-products with Shenhua Ningxia Coal Industry Group Co., Ltd. The total contract value is approximately RMB 523 million;

  2. a contract of engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) for Chongqing Fuling LNG plant with Chongqing Sinopec Tonghui Energy Co., Ltd. The total contract value is approximately RMB 448 million; and

  3. a construction contract for the project of mechanical package of CDU/VDU in Saudi Arabian Jazan Refinery Project with Korean SK E&C Co., Ltd. The total contract value is USD 82 million (approximately RMB 520 million).

Backlog

Backlog represents the total estimated contract value of work that remains to be completed pursuant to outstanding contracts as at a certain date, net of estimated value added tax and is based on the Group’s assumption that the relevant contracts will be performed in accordance with their terms. Backlog is not a measure defined by generally accepted accounting principles. Any modification, termination or suspension of these contracts by the Group’s clients may have a substantial and immediate effect on the Group’s backlog. Projects may also remain in the Group’s backlog for an extended period of time beyond what was initially anticipated due to various factors beyond the Group’s control.
