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 31 December 2022, the total value of new contracts entered into by the Group amounted to RMB14.849 billion, and contracts that are representative are as follows:

  1. an EPC contract entered into with Guangxi Gas Group Co., Ltd. (廣西燃氣集團有 限公司) in relation to the Guangxi LNG Expansion Project (Phase III) receiving terminal with a total contract value of approximately RMB2.357 billion;

  2. an EPC contract entered into with Sinopec Zhenhai Refining & Chemical Company (中國石化鎮海煉化公司) in relation to the acrylonitrile combined unit of the Oil Refining and High-end Synthetic New Material Project of Zhenhai Refining & Chemical with a total contract value of approximately RMB1.538 billion; and

  3. a BEPC contract entered into with Fujian Fuhaichuang Petrochemical Co., Ltd. (福建福海創石油化工有限公司) in relation to the hydrogenation units of Fuhaichuang Petrochemical Project with a total contract value of approximately RMB1.485 billion.

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.

In order to more accurately reflect the Group’s backlog, the Group has restated some segments in which some backlogs are located; and based on the principle of prudence, the Group adjusted the value of backlog accordingly based on changes and adjustments to contracts in hand for projects of new coal chemicals and storage & transportation and others.
