APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET COMPANY

II. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL INFORMATION

1. CORPORATE INFORMATION

The Target Company is a limited liability company incorporated in the PRC on 15 November 2013. Its registered office is located at No. 550, Zhongshan North Road, Gulou District, Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, the PRC. The Target Company has not commenced any business since the date of establishment.

The sole director considers that the Target Company’s immediate and ultimate holding company was 南京臨 江老城改造建設投資有限公司, a limited liability company established in the PRC.

2. ADOPTION OF NEW OR AMENDED HKFRSS

During the Relevant Period, the Target Company has adopted all the new and amended HKFRSs issued by the HKICPA which are relevant to the Target Company and effective for the reporting period beginning on or after 1 January 2014.

At the date of this report, certain new and amended HKFRSs have been published but are not yet effective, and have not been adopted early by the Target Company.

The sole director of the Target Company anticipates that all of the pronouncements will be adopted in the Target Company’s accounting policy for the first period beginning after the effective date of the pronouncement. The sole director of the Target Company are currently assessing the impact of the new and amended HKFRSs upon initial application. So far, the sole director of the Target Company have preliminarily concluded that the initial application of these HKFRSs will not result in material financial impact on the Financial Information.

3. BASIS OF PREPARATION

(a) Statement of compliance

The Financial Information has been prepared in accordance with all applicable HKFRSs, Hong Kong Accounting Standards (“HKASs”) and Interpretations (hereinafter collectively referred to as the “HKFRSs”) and the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance and Listing Rules.

(b) Basis of measurement

The Financial Information has been prepared under the historical cost basis.

(c) Functional and presentation currency

The Financial Information is presented in HK$. The Target Company maintains its books and records in its own functional currency. The functional currency of the Target Company is RMB. The board of director considered that it is more appropriate to present the Financial Information in HK$ as the shares of the Company are listed on the Stock Exchange.

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Properties under development and for sale

Completed properties and properties under development held for sale are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes the cost of land, development expenditure, borrowing costs capitalised and other attributable expenses. Net realisable value is determined by prevailing market conditions.

(b) Financial Instrument

(i) Financial Assets

The Target Company classifies its financial assets at initial recognition, depending on the purpose for which the asset was acquired. Financial assets are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial assets. Regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis. A regular way purchase or sale is a purchase or sale of a financial asset under a contract whose terms require delivery of the asset within the time frame established generally by regulation or convention in the marketplace concerned.

– 11 –

APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET COMPANY

Loans and receivables: These assets are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They arise principally through the provision of goods and services to customers, and also incorporate other types of contractual monetary asset. Subsequent to initial recognition, they are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any identified impairment losses.

(ii) Impairment loss on financial assets

The Target Company assesses, at the end of each reporting period, whether there is any objective evidence that financial asset is impaired. Financial asset is impaired if there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset and that event has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset that can be reliably estimated. Evidence of impairment may include:

  • significant financial difficulty of the debtor;

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

  • granting concession to a debtor because of debtors’ financial difficulty;

  • a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of an investment in equity instrument below its cost; and

  • it becoming probable that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation.

For loans and receivables

An impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss when there is objective evidence that the asset is impaired, and is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of financial asset is reduced through the use of an allowance account. When any part of financial asset is determined as uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account for the relevant financial asset.

Impairment losses are reversed in subsequent periods when an increase in the asset’s recoverable amount can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, subject to a restriction 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 the impairment not been recognised.

(iii) Financial liability at amortised cost

The Target Company’s financial liability including amount due to holding company, are initially measured at fair value, net of directly attributable costs incurred for the acquisition or issue of the financial liability and are subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest method. The related interest expense is recognised within “finance costs” in profit or loss.

Gains or losses are recognised in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the amortisation process.

(iv) Effective interest method

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset or financial liability and of allocating interest income or interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts or payments through the expected life of the financial asset or financial liability, or where appropriate, a shorter period.

(v) Paid-up capital

Paid-up capitals is classified as equity and is recorded at the proceeds from capital contributions made by the investors.

– 12 –

APPENDIX I FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET COMPANY

(vi) Derecognition

The Target Company derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the future cash flows in relation to the financial asset expire or when the financial asset has been transferred and the transfer meets the criteria for derecognition in accordance with HKAS 39.

(c) Revenue recognition

Interest income is recognised as it accrues using the effective interest method.

(d) Income taxes

Income taxes for the period comprise current tax and deferred tax.

Current tax is based on the profit or loss from ordinary activities adjusted for items that are non-assessable or disallowable for income tax purposes and is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the end of reporting period.

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the corresponding amounts used for tax purposes. Except for goodwill and recognised assets and liabilities that affect neither accounting nor taxable profits, deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is realised based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the end of reporting period.

Income taxes are recognised in profit or loss except when they relate to items directly recognised to other comprehensive income in which case the taxes are also directly recognised in other comprehensive income.

(e) Foreign currency

Transaction entered into by the Target Company in currencies other than the currency of the primary economic environment in which they operate (the “functional currency”) are recorded at the rates ruling when the transaction occur. Foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the rates ruling at the end of reporting period.

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

Income and expenses, if any, of the Target Company are translated into the presentation currency (i.e. HK$) at the average exchange rates for the period, unless exchange rates fluctuate significantly during the period, in which case, the rates approximating to those ruling when the transaction took place are used. All assets and liabilities of the Target Company are translated at the rate ruling at the end of reporting period. Exchange differences arising, if any, are recognised in other comprehensive income.

(f) Provisions and contingent liabilities

Provisions are recognised for liabilities of uncertain timing or amount when the Target Company has a legal or constructive obligation arising as a result of a past event, which will probably result in an outflow of economic benefits that can be reasonably estimated.

Where it is not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required, or the amount cannot be estimated reliably, the obligation is disclosed as a contingent liability, unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote. Possible obligations, the existence of which will only be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more future events, are also disclosed as contingent liabilities unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote.

The following unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of financial position of the Enlarged Group as at 30 June 2014 (the “Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information”) has been prepared in accordance with Rule 4.29 of the Listing Rules for the purpose of illustrating the effect on the financial position of the Enlarged Group as if the acquisition of entire registered capital and shareholder’s loan of the Target Company by the Group (the “Possible Acquisition”) had been completed on 30 June 2014. The Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information has been prepared for illustrative purpose only, and because of its nature, it may not give a true picture of the Enlarged Group’s financial position following completion of the Acquisition.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information has been prepared based on:

  • (a) the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of financial position of the Group as at 30 June 2014 which has been extracted from the interim report of the Group for the six months ended 30 June 2014;

  • (b) the audited statement of financial position of the Target Company as at 30 June 2014 which has been extracted from Appendix I to this Supplemental Circular; and

  • (c) after taking into account of the unaudited pro forma adjustments relating to the Possible Acquisition that are (i) directly attributable to the Possible Acquisition and not relating to future events or decisions; and (ii) factually supportable.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information is based on a number of assumptions, estimates and uncertainties. Accordingly, the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information does not purport to describe the actual financial position of the Enlarged Group that would have been attained had the Possible Acquisition been completed on 30 June 2014. The Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information does not purport to predict the future financial position of the Enlarged Group.

INDEPENDENT REPORTING ACCOUNTANT’S ASSURANCE REPORT ON THE COMPILATION OF UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION INCLUDED IN A SUPPLEMENTAL CIRCULAR

TO THE DIRECTORS OF SHANGHAI ZENDAI PROPERTY LIMITED

We have completed our assurance engagement to report on the compilation of unaudited pro forma financial information of Shanghai Zendai Property Limited (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Group”), and 南京五道口置業有限公司 (the “Target Company”) to be acquired by the Company (collectively referred to as the “Enlarged Group”) prepared by the directors of the Company (the “Directors”) for illustrative purposes only. The unaudited pro forma financial information consists of the unaudited pro forma statement of assets and liabilities as at 30 June 2014 and related notes (the “Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information”) as set out on pages 17 to 20 of the Company’s supplemental circular dated 22 December 2014 (the “Supplemental Circular”), in connection with the possible acquisition of the entire registered capital and shareholder’s loan of the Target Company (the “Possible Acquisition”) by the Company. The applicable criteria on the basis of which the Directors have compiled the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information are described in Appendix II set out on page 17 of the Company’s Supplemental Circular dated 22 December 2014.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information has been compiled by the Directors to illustrate the impact of the Possible Acquisition on the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2014 as if the Possible Acquisition had taken place at 30 June 2014. As part of this process, information about the Group’s financial position has been extracted by the Directors from the Group’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2014, on which an interim report has been published.

Directors’ Responsibility for the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information

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

Reporting Accountant’s Responsibilities

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

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

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

The purpose of Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information included in a Supplemental Circular is solely to illustrate the impact of a significant event or transaction on unadjusted financial information of the Group as if the event had occurred or the transaction had been undertaken at an earlier date selected for purposes of the illustration. Accordingly, we do not provide any assurance that the actual outcome of the Possible Acquisition at 30 June 2014 would have been as presented.

A reasonable assurance engagement to report on whether the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information has been properly compiled on the basis of the applicable criteria involves performing procedures to assess whether the applicable criteria used by the Directors in the compilation of the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information provide a reasonable basis for presenting the significant effects directly attributable to the event or transaction, and to obtain sufficient appropriate evidence about whether:

APPENDIX II

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

  • the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information reflects the proper application of those adjustments to the unadjusted financial information.

The procedures selected depend on the reporting accountant’s judgment, having regard to the reporting accountant’s understanding of the nature of the Group, the event or transaction in respect of which the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information has been compiled, and other relevant engagement circumstances.

The engagement also involves evaluating the overall presentation of the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information.

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

Opinion

In our opinion:

  • (a) the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information has been properly compiled by the Directors of the Company on the basis stated;

  • (b) such basis is consistent with the accounting policies of the Group; and
