Immediately prior to the Share Purchase, the Offeror and parties acting in concert with it did not hold any Shares in the share capital or voting rights of the Company. Immediately following the Share Purchase Completion, and as at the Latest Practicable Date, the Offeror and parties acting in concert with it were interested in a total of 602,980,145 Shares, representing approximately 44.74% of the issued share capital of the Company.

Guotai Junan Securities will make the Offers for and on behalf of the Offeror to all Independent Shareholders for all issued Shares in the share capital of the Company (other than those already owned or agreed to be acquired by the Offeror and parties acting in concert with it) and to all Optionholders for the cancellation of all outstanding Share Options on the terms set out in this Composite Document in accordance with Rules 26.1 and 13 of the Takeovers Code respectively, on the following basis:

Principal terms of the Offers

For each Offer Share. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .HK$0.2 in cash

The Share Offer Price of HK$0.2 per Offer Share is the same as the purchase price per Sale Share under the Share Purchase Agreement. The Offer Shares to be acquired under the Share Offer shall be fully paid and free from all Encumbrances together with all rights attached thereto, including but not limited to all rights to any dividend or other distributions, if any, declared, made or paid on or after the date on which the Share Offer is made, being the date of the despatch of this Composite Document.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were 1,347,860,727 Shares in issue, and the Offeror and parties acting in concert with it were interested in a total of 602,980,145 Shares, representing approximately 44.74% of the issued share capital of the Company.

In formulating our opinion to the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders and the holders of the Options, we have performed relevant procedures and those steps which we deemed necessary in forming our opinions.

We consider that we have been provided with sufficient information to reach an informed view and to provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have not considered the tax consequences on the Independent Shareholders and the Optionholders of their acceptance or non-acceptance of the Offers since these are particular to their own individual circumstances and they should consult their own professional advisers if they are in any doubt on their own tax positions with regard to the Offers.

PRINCIPAL FACTORS TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION

In formulating our opinion in respect of the Offers, we have considered the following principal factors and reasons.

1. Background and terms of the Offers

As set out in the ‘‘Introduction’’ of this letter, on 28 September 2018, the Vendor and the Offeror entered into the Share Purchase Agreement and Share Purchase Completion took place on 15 October 2018. Upon Share Purchase Completion and as at the Latest Practicable Date, the Offeror and parties acting in concert with it own 602,980,145 Shares, representing approximately 44.74% of the entire issued share capital of the Company. Accordingly, Guotai Junan Securities, for and on behalf of the Offeror and in compliance with the Takeovers Code, will make (i) the Share Offer to acquire all issued Shares in the share capital of the Company (other than those already owned or agreed to be acquired by the Offeror and parties acting in concert with it) pursuant to Rule 26.1 of the Takeovers Code; and (ii) the Option Offer to cancel all the outstanding Share Options at appropriate price in compliance with Rule 13 of the Takeovers Code.

Immediately after the Share Purchase Completion and as at the Latest Practicable Date, Mr. Sin, the Chairman and an executive Director, was interested in the 15,688,000 Shares, representing approximately 1.17% of the entire issued share capital of the Company, and 4,000,000 Share Options. Each of Mr. Sin and Mr. San Kwan, an executive Director and holder of 8,000,000 Shares and 2,000,000 Share Options, had irrevocably and unconditionally undertaken to the Offeror under the Irrevocable Undertakings that (i) he shall not tender any of the Shares held by him for acceptance in respect of the Share Offer; (ii) he shall not tender any of the Share Options for acceptance in respect of the Option Offer; (iii) he would not dispose of any of the Shares held by him from the date of the Joint Announcement until the close of the Offers; and (iv) he shall not

– 33 –

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

exercise any Share Options granted to him from the date of the Joint Announcement until the close of the Offers. The irrevocable undertakings shall cease to be binding after the close of the Offers, or if the Offers are not proceeded with.

Guotai Junan Securities will make the Offers for and on behalf of the Offeror to all Independent Shareholders for all issued Shares in the share capital of the Company (other than those already owned or agreed to be acquired by the Offeror and parties acting in concert with it) and to all Optionholders for the cancellation of all outstanding Share Options on the terms set out in the Composite Document in accordance with Rules 26.1 and 13 of the Takeovers Code respectively, on the following basis:

Share Offer

For each Offer Share. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . HK$0.2 in cash

The Share Offer Price of HK$0.2 per Offer Share is the same as the purchase price per Sale Share under the Share Purchase Agreement. The Offer Shares to be acquired under the Share Offer shall be fully paid and free from all Encumbrances together with all rights attached thereto, including but not limited to all rights to any dividend or other distributions, if any, declared, made or paid on or after the date on which the Share Offer is made, being the date of the despatch of this Composite Document.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were 1,347,860,727 Shares in issue, and the Offeror and parties acting in concert with it were interested in a total of 602,980,145 Shares, representing approximately 44.74% of the issued share capital of the Company. Further details of the terms of the Share Offer and the procedures for acceptance are set out in Appendix I to this Composite Document and the accompanying WHITE Form of Share Offer Acceptance and Transfer.

Option Offer

The Offeror is making the Option Offer to the Optionholders in accordance with Rule 13 of the Takeovers Code to cancel all outstanding Share in exchange for cash.

For cancellation of each Share Option . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . HK$0.01 in cash

As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were 54,000,000 Share Options entitling the grantees to subscribe for an aggregate of 54,000,000 Shares at an exercise price of HK$1.112 per Share granted under the Share Option Scheme. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Offeror and parties acting in concert with it did not hold any Share Option.

Pursuant to Rule 13 of the Takeovers Code and Practice Note 6 to the Takeovers Code, the Option Offer Price would normally represent the difference between the exercise price of the Share Options and the Share Offer Price. Under the Option Offer, given that the exercise price of the outstanding Share Options is above the Share Offer Price, the outstanding Share Options are out-of-money and the Option Offer Price for the cancellation of each outstanding Share Option is set at a nominal value of

– 34 –

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

HK$0.01. Further terms of the Option Offer and the procedures for acceptances are set out in Appendix I to this Composite Document and the accompany Form of Option Offer Acceptance.

The Share Offer will be conditional upon the Offeror having received valid acceptances of the Offer Shares which, together with the Shares acquired or to be acquired by the Offeror and the parties acting in concert with it before or during the Offer Period, will result in the Offeror and parties acting in concert with it holding more than 50% of the voting rights of the Company. The Option Offer will be conditional upon the Share Offer becoming or being declared unconditional in all respects.

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

For the year ended 30 June 2018, the turnover of the Group was approximately RMB661.7 million, representing an increase of approximately 9.5% from approximately RMB604.3 million for the year ended 30 June 2017. The increase in the turnover of the Group was attributable to the sales of Summi fresh orange juice which the Group has leveraged upon as a new driver for its business growth. However, as the Group has put significant efforts in promoting Summi fresh orange juice, its marketing expenses has substantially increased for the year ended year ended 30 June 2018. As a result, for the year ended 30 June 2018, the Group’s profit for the year attributable to owners of the Company was approximately RMB11.6 million, representing a decrease of approximately 82.8% from approximately RMB67.5 million for the year ended 30 June 2017.

As at 30 June 2018, the Group’s net assets was approximately RMB1,744.2 million.

Outlook

Production and sale of FCOJ and other related products

As disclosed in the 2018 Annual Report, the sales of the Group’s FCOJ and related products included FCOJ, orange pulp, orange fibre and other related products. For the year ended 30 June 2018, we understand that major places of origin for FCOJ worldwide such as Florida in the USA and Brazil were affected by the low harvest volume of local fresh oranges which led to the supply shortage of global FCOJ. Despite such supply shortage, the sales volume from FCOJ of the Group decreased by approximately 23.2% from approximately 14,267 tonnes for the year ended 30 June 2017 to approximately 10,954 tonnes for the year ended 30 June 2018, which also led to the Group’s turnover from FCOJ to decrease by approximately 3.2% from approximately RMB195.6 million for the year ended 30 June 2017 to approximately RMB189.4 million for the year ended 30 June 2018. It should be noted that the Group’s turnover from FCOJ has decreased less than the decrease in the sales volume of FCOJ as a result of an overall increase in average selling price of FCOJ. Whilst the Group’s turnover from FCOJ has decreased, the overall turnover contribution from the production and sale of FCOJ and other related products recorded an increase of approximately 4.6% from approximately RMB345.5 million for the year ended 30 June 2017 to approximately RMB361.5 million for the year ended 30 June 2018. Such increase was mainly due to the increase in the demand for fruit juice drinks containing fruit grains (i.e., orange pulp) as the major raw materials for the Chinese domestic retailing market. The sales volume from orange pulp of the Group increased by approximately 22.1% from approximately 17,610 tonnes for year ended 30 June 2017 to approximately 21,510 tonnes for year ended 30 June 2018 leading to the sales amount from orange pulp to increase by approximately 16.5% from approximately RMB147.7 million for the year ended 30 June 2017 to approximately RMB172.1 million for the year ended 30 June 2018. However, in light that the sales volume from FCOJ of the Group has decreased significantly in a time when there is a supply shortage of global FCOJ, there may be uncertainty in whether the Group’s business in the production and sale of FCOJ and other related products will be able to grow when the supply of global FCOJ resumes to a normal level in the future.

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

Production and sale of Summi fresh orange juice

As disclosed in the 2018 Annual Report, the Group has identified the sales of Summi fresh orange juice as a new driver for its business growth. Although turnover recorded from sales of Summi fresh orange juice has increased from approximately RMB135.1 million for the year ended 30 June 2017 to approximately RMB186.3 million for the year ended 30 June 2018, representing an increase of approximately 37.9%, the Group has also increased significantly its selling and distribution costs concurrently which mainly comprised of marketing expenses such as costs of free tasting, promotion events costs and transportation costs from approximately RMB84.1 million for the year ended 30 June 2017 to approximately RMB134.4 million for the year ended 30 June 2018, representing an increase of approximately 59.8%. Such increase was mainly attributable to the Group’s greater efforts in promoting Summi Orange Juice during the year ended 30 June 2018. As such, segment results from production and sale of Summi fresh orange juice recognised a loss of approximately RMB52.3 million for the year ended 30 June 2018 as compared with a loss of approximately RMB28.8 million for the year ended 30 June 2017 and which mainly contributed to the 82.5% decrease in the profit for the year attributable to owners of the Company for the year ended 30 June 2018 as discussed above. Whilst it is encouraging that sales of Summi fresh orange juice has increased during the year ended 30 June 2018, there is still no certainty at this stage as to whether the Group will be able to generate profitability from its Summi fresh orange juice and how the continued loss from its Summi fresh orange juice business will impact the overall profitability of the Group going forward.

Fresh oranges and plantation

As disclosed in the 2018 Annual Report, the Group operates approximately 146,000 mu of orange plantations with orange trees in Kaizhou, Chongqing, and the oranges harvested from these plantations are used for selling as premium fresh oranges or as raw materials for producing Summi fresh orange juice and FCOJ and related products by the Group according to their grades. During the year ended 30 June 2018, the Group’s plantations of approximately 70,000 mu entered the trial production phase and harvested a small amount of fresh oranges, but the unstable weather in Chongqing affected the overall output of the plantations and therefore the output of fresh oranges failed to grow. Overall, the turnover from the Group’s business in fresh oranges and plantation recorded a decrease of approximately 7.9% from approximately RMB123.8 million for the year ended 30 June 2017 to approximately RMB114.0 million for the year ended 30 June 2018. In view of the decrease in the turnover from the Group’s business in fresh oranges and plantation, there is uncertainty in the overall growth in this business segment of the Group.

3. Intention of the Offeror in relation to the Group

As disclosed in the Composite Document, the Offeror intends to continue the existing principal businesses of the Group. The Offeror has no intention to discontinue the employment of the employees (save for changes in the composition of the Board) or to dispose of or redeploy the assets of the Group other than those in its ordinary course of business. The Offeror and parties acting in concert with it do not have any intentions or plans for (i) disposal of existing business or assets of the Company; (ii) acquisition of business or assets by the Company; and (iii) converting the use of certain pieces of the Group’s leasehold land for orange plantation from orange plantation to other purposes including but not limited to property development.

The Offeror will, following the close of the Offers, conduct a review on the business activities/operations and financial position of the Group for the purpose of formulating business plans and strategies for the future business development of the Group. Subject to the results of the review and should suitable investment or business opportunities arise, the Offeror may explore other business opportunities for the Company which may involve acquisitions or investments in assets and/or businesses or cooperation with business partners of the Offeror with a view of enhancing the Group’s business growth and asset base as well as broadening its income stream.

As disclosed in the Joint Announcement, the Company originally intended to raise funds for the purpose of repaying its outstanding bank loans by issuing convertible bonds (the ‘‘CB’’) in the principal amount of US$10 million to US$15 million and at a conversion price of HK$0.2 per conversion Share. Subsequently, as disclosed in the announcement of the Company dated 5 November 2018, among other things, the Company received a demand letter concerning a facility agreement and the Company was in the process of discussion with its bankers, bondholders and creditors with a view to agreeing on the arrangements which facilitate the Company to meet its obligation, including but not limited to the loans under the aforesaid facility agreement. As the negotiation and discussion with the bank creditors on debt restructuring proposal are still in progress, the Company has decided not to issue, and the Offeror has decided not to subscribe for, the CBs or any other convertible securities during the Offer Period as well as the six-month period after the Offer Period. We understand that the bank creditors may take legal actions against the Company if the negotiation is not satisfactory. For details, please refer to the announcement of the Company dated 26 November 2018. In light of the demand letter mentioned above and that the Company is still in the process of negotiation regarding the debt restructuring proposal with the bank creditors of the Company, the outcome of which is still uncertain at this stage, we are of the view that there may be an adverse impact on the business operations and financial position of the Group if such negotiation is not satisfactory. As such, Shareholders should closely monitor the announcement(s) of the Company on the progress of the discussion with the Group’s bankers, bondholders and creditors.

Please refer to the ‘‘Letter from Guotai Junan Securities’’ of the Composite Document for further information in relation to the intention of the Offeror and the background of the Offeror.

4. Proposed change of the composition of the Board

The Board is currently made up of five Directors, comprising two executive Directors, being Mr. Sin and Mr. San Kwan; and three independent non-executive Directors, being Mr. Zeng Jianzhong, Mr. Zhuang Weidong and Mr. Zhuang Xueyuan. Mr. Tsang Sze Wai Claudius, the former non-executive Director, has retired from office with effect from 9 November 2018 pursuant to his director’s service contract entered into with the Company.

As set out in the ‘‘Letter from Guotai Junan Securities’’ of the Composite Document, no Directors will be resigned before the close of the Offer. Further, the Offeror intends to nominate Mr. Wu and Mr. Wu Liantao, the son of Mr. Wu as new executive Directors to the Board for appointment with effect from a date which is no earlier than such date as permitted under Rule 26.4 of the Takeovers Code. The background and biographies of Mr. Wu and Mr. Wu Liantao are set out in the section headed ‘‘Proposed change of composition of the Board’’ in the ‘‘Letter from Guotai Junan Securities’’ of the Composite Document.

Our view on the intention of the Offeror on the Company and proposed change to the Board composition

As noted above, the Offeror intends to continue the existing principal activities of the Group. Whilst the Offer has no intention to terminate discontinue the employment of the employees (save for changes in the composition of the Board) or to dispose of or redeploy the assets of the Group other than those in its ordinary course of business, the Offeror will be conducting a detailed review on the existing business operations following completion of the Offer with the view to lay down an appropriate business plan and to explore other business opportunities of the Group in the future. As such, there could be uncertainties with the direction and strategies the Offeror will take after its review considering that the Offeror/Mr. Wu does not have direct experience in the current principal businesses of the Company (i.e., orange and orange juice related business). Currently, the Offeror has also proposed to nominate Mr. Wu and Mr. Wu Liantao as executive Directors to the Board and after having reviewed their background and biographies, we noted that they also do not have the experience in the current principal businesses of the Company. However, whilst it was noted that no Directors will resign before the close of the Offer, there could still be uncertainties in how the current change to the Board composition may affect the current employees of the Group as well as the operations of the Group going forward.

In light of the above and in particular that the Offeror/Mr. Wu does not have direct experience in the current principal businesses of the Company and the Offeror has not laid down detailed business plan as at the Latest Practicable Date, we are of the view that there could be uncertainties in the future business development of the Group.

5. Public float and maintaining the listing status of the Company

The Stock Exchange has stated that if, at the close of the Offers, less than the minimum prescribed percentage applicable to the Company, being 25% of the issued Shares are held by the public, or if the Stock Exchange believes that a false market exists or may exist in the trading of the Shares; or that there are insufficient Shares in public hands to maintain an orderly market, it will consider exercising its discretion to suspend dealings in the Shares.

The Offeror intends the Company to remain listed on the Stock Exchange. The sole Director of the Offeror and the new Directors to be appointed to the Board of the Company have jointly and severally undertaken to the Stock Exchange to take appropriate steps to ensure that sufficient public float exists in the Company’s Shares.

In this connection, in the event that the public float falls below 25% upon close of the Offers, the Offeror will, as soon as practicable, dispose of such number of Shares either directly in the market or through a placing agent to be appointed by the Offeror to ensure that the public float requirement under the Listing Rules can be met. Appropriate announcement(s) will be made in this regard as and when appropriate in compliance with the Listing Rules.

6. The Share Offer Price

The Share Offer Price of HK$0.2 per Offer Share represents:

  • (i) a discount of approximately 39.39% to the closing price of HK$0.33 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the Last Trading Day;

  • (ii) a discount of approximately 40.48% to the average closing price of HK$0.336 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the last five consecutive trading days up to and including the Last Trading Day;

  • (iii) a discount of approximately 41.00% to the average closing price of approximately HK$0.339 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the last ten consecutive trading days up to and including the Last Trading Day;

  • (v) a discount of approximately 3.38% to the closing price of HK$0.207 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange as at the Latest Practicable Date; and

  • (vi) a discount of approximately 86.49% to the audited consolidated net asset value per Share (“NAV Per Share”) of approximately RMB1.294 (equivalent to approximately HK$1.48 per Share) as at 30 June 2018.

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

As set out above, the Share Offer Price of HK$0.2 per Offer Share represents a discount of approximately 86.49% to the audited consolidated NAV per Share. As illustrated in the table under the sub-section headed “Comparison with other comparable companies” in this letter below, the share price of the Comparable Companies (as defined below) is trading at a discount of approximately 86.77% to the net asset value per share to a premium of approximately 9.92% over the net asset value per share. Given that the discount of the Share Offer Price to the audited consolidated NAV Per Share is within the above said range, we consider that the Share Offer Price being at a discount to the Company’s NAV Per Share is a normal market valuation.

Historical price performance of the Shares

We have reviewed and analysed the closing prices of the Shares from 28 September 2017 (being approximately the 12-month period prior to the Last Trading Day) up to the Latest Practicable Date (the ‘‘Review Period’’). The following is a chart of the closing prices of the Shares during the Review Period:

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

From 28 September 2017 to the Last Trading Day, the closing prices of the Shares ranged from HK$0.325 to HK$1.18 per Share, representing a premium of approximately 62.50% and 490.00% respectively over the Share Offer Price of HK$0.2. However, as noted in the chart above, the closing price of the Shares has been decreasing in the said period with the highest closing price of the Shares recorded on 17 to 19 October 2017 whilst the lowest closing price of the Shares recorded on 20 September 2018. As such, the closing price of the Shares has dropped approximately 85.50% in the said period. We have enquired with the Company for the reason of the decrease in the closing prices of the Shares during the abovementioned period and the Directors are not aware of any reasons for such price decrease. However, it should be noted that the Company has issued a profit warning announcement on 17 September 2018 informing shareholders and investors of an expected decrease in profit to be recorded by the Group for the year ended 30 June 2018 as compared with the prior year.

Since Last Trading Day and up to the Latest Practicable Date, we noted that the closing prices of the Shares had decreased and ranged from HK$0.191 to HK$0.28 per Share, representing a discount of approximately 4.50% to and a premium of approximately 40.00% over the Share Offer Price respectively. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Share Offer Price represents a discount of approximately 3.38% to the closing price of HK$0.207 per Share.

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

Notes:

  1. Based on 632,865,382 Shares held by the public Shareholders as at the Latest Practicable Date. The number of shares held by the public Shareholders is calculated based on 1,347,860,727 Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date and excluding the Shares held by Mr. Sin, Mr. San Kwan, the Offeror, the independent trustee holding the Shares for the share award scheme adopted by the Company on 11 September 2015 and the Shareholder holding more than 5% interest in the Company (i.e., CITIC Securities Company Limited) as disclosed in Appendix IV of the Composite Document of 15,688,000 Shares, 8,000,000 Shares, 602,980,145 Shares, 19,412,000 Shares and 68,915,200 Shares respectively as at the Latest Practicable Date.

  2. Based on 1,347,860,727 Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date.

As noted in the table above, trading in the Shares had been rather thin during the Review Period, with the Average Volume to total number of Shares held by the public Shareholders as at the Latest Practicable Date being less than 1% for 13 out of the 15 months during the Review Period and with an average of 0.62%.

Given the thin historical daily trading volume of the Shares, it is uncertain as to whether there would be sufficient liquidity in the Shares for the Independent Shareholders to dispose of a significant number of Shares in the open market without causing an adverse impact on the market price level of the Shares and accordingly, the market trading price of the Shares may not necessarily reflect the proceeds that the Independent Shareholders can receive by the disposal of their Shares in the open market. The Share Offer, therefore, represents an opportunity and a viable alternate exit for the Independent Shareholders, particularly for those who hold a large volume of Shares, to dispose of their entire holding at the Share Offer Price if they so wish.

Comparison with other comparable companies

To further assess the fairness and reasonableness of the Share Offer Price, we have performed a price-to-earnings ratio (the ‘‘P/E’’) and a price-to-book (‘‘P/B’’) analysis, the most commonly used benchmark for valuation of companies, to compare the Share Offer Price against the market valuation of other comparable companies. We have searched for companies listed on the Stock Exchange engaging in similar lines of business as the Group for our comparison purpose, i.e., sale of fruit juices, and not under prolong trading suspension, i.e., suspension of trading for more than 6 months (the ‘‘Comparable Companies’’). In this regard, two Comparable Companies are identified based on our research on the website of the Stock Exchange in accordance with the above criteria which is an exhaustive list. Although the scale of operations, financial position, market capitalisation and future prospects of the Comparable Companies are not exactly the same as the Company, having considered that the Comparable Companies are principally engaged in the same or similar business as the Group and whilst there are only two Comparable Companies, the list is exhaustive under our selection criteria and is relevant in assessing the fairness and reasonableness of the Share Offer Price. In this respect, we consider the Comparable Companies are

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

  1. P/E of the Comparable Companies is calculated based on its market capitalisation divided by its profit attributable to the equity shareholders. The P/E of the Company is based on its market capitalisation (see Note 6 below) divided by its profit attributable to owners of the Company for the year ended 30 June 2018.

  2. P/B of the Comparable Companies is calculated based on its market capitalisation divided by net assets. The P/B of the Company is based on its market capitalisation (see Note 6 below) divided by its net assets as at 30 June 2018.

  3. Market capitalisation of Yantai North Andre Juice Co. Limited is based on the aggregate of its H-shares and domestic shares outstanding multiplied by the its closing share price as at the Latest Practicable Date.

  4. Market capitalisation of the Company is calculated based on the Share Offer Price multiplied by the number of Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date.

As shown in the above table, the P/E of the Comparable Companies range from approximately 1.5 times to approximately 19.6 times, with an average P/E of approximately 10.5 times. The implied P/E of the Company (based on the Share Offer Price) (the ‘‘Implied P/E’’) of approximately 21.2 times is hence above the said range of the P/E of the Comparable Companies.

As shown in the above table, the P/B of the Comparable Companies range from approximately 0.13 times to approximately 1.10 times, with an average P/B of approximately 0.62 times. As such the implied P/B of the Company (based on the Share Offer Price) (the ‘‘Implied P/B’’) of approximately 0.14 times is below the average P/B of the Comparable Companies. Whilst the Implied P/B is below the average P/B of the Comparable Companies, we have considered and balanced against the following factors in analysing the fairness and reasonableness of the Share Offer:

  • . the decrease in the profit attributable to owners of the Company recorded for the year ended 30 June 2018 as compared to the prior corresponding financial year;

  • . the uncertainty in the future profitability of the Group in its various business segments as discussed in the section headed ‘‘Business and financial information on the Group’’ of this letter above;

  • . that there may be a material adverse impact on the business operations and the financial position of the Group if the outcome of the discussion with its bankers, bondholders and creditors is not satisfactory regarding the demand to repay the loans under a facility agreement;

  • . the closing prices of the Shares have been in a decreasing trend during the Review Period;

  • . the liquidity of the Shares in general was low throughout the Review Period; and

  • . the Implied P/E is higher than the range of the P/E of the Comparable Companies.

– 46 –

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

In addition to the above, it should also be noted that the Implied P/B is still in range of the P/B of the Comparable Companies and therefore we are of the view that the valuation of the Company calculated based on the Share Offer Price is no less unfavourable than the market valuation of the Comparable Companies.

In light of the above, we are of the view that the Share Offer Price is fair and reasonable so far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned.

7. The Option Offer

A cash offer is being made to the Optionholders under the Option Offer to cancel the outstanding Share Options as follows:

For cancellation of each Share Option . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . HK$0.01 in cash

We noted that under the Option Offer, the Option Offer price is calculated on a ‘‘seethrough’’ basis. Given that the exercise price of the outstanding Share Options is above the Share Offer Price, the outstanding Share Options are out-of-money and the Option Offer Price for the cancellation of each outstanding Share Option is set at a nominal value of HK$0.01. In view that the ‘‘see-through’’ principle is normally adopted in Hong Kong for share option offer, we are of the view that the Option Offer Price is fair and reasonable so far as the Optionholders are concerned.

OPINIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Notwithstanding that the Share Offer Price is at a discount to the Company’s NAV Per Share and the Implied P/B is below the average P/B of the Comparable Companies, having considered and balanced against the various factors and reasons set out in this letter above and in particular that:

  • (i) the Group recorded a decrease of approximately 82.8% in profit attributable to owners of the Company for the year ended 30 June 2018 as compared with its prior year;

  • (ii) there is uncertainty in the future profitability of the Group at this stage given that (a) the Group’s business in the production and sale of FCOJ and other related products might be adversely impacted when the supply of global FCOJ resumes to a normal level in the future; (b) the Group was not able to generate profitability from its Summi fresh orange juice business for the two years ended 30 June 2018 and how such continued loss will impact the overall profitability of the Group going forward; and (c) the turnover generated from the Group’s fresh oranges and plantation business has recorded a year-on-year decrease for the year ended 30 June 2018;

  • (iii) that there may be a material adverse impact on the business operations and the financial position of the Group if the outcome of the discussion with its bankers, bondholders and creditors is not satisfactory regarding the demand to repay the loans under a facility agreement;

– 47 –

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

  • (iv) the closing prices of the Shares have been in a decreasing trend during the Review Period;

  • (v) the liquidity of the Shares in general was low throughout the Review Period and the uncertainty as to whether the Independent Shareholders will be able to realise their investments in the Shares (especially those with relatively sizeable shareholdings) at a price higher than the Share Offer Price;

  • (vi) the Implied P/E is higher than the range of the P/E of the Comparable Companies; and

  • (vii) the Option Offer was determined using a ‘‘see-through’’ approach which is normally adopted in Hong Kong for general offers of a similar nature,

we consider that the terms of the Offers are fair and reasonable so far as the Independent Shareholders and Optionholders are concerned. Accordingly, we recommend the Independent Board Committee to advise the Independent Shareholders and Optionholders to accept the Offers.

However, Shareholders should note that as at the Latest Practicable Date, the closing price of the Share was HK$0.207 per Share, representing a premium of approximately 3.5% over the Share Offer Price. As such, for those Independent Shareholders who wish to dispose all or part of their shareholding, we would advise them to do so on the market instead of accepting the Share Offer if the net proceeds from the sale of such Shares in the market would exceed the net proceeds receivable under the Share Offer. Similarly, for those Optionholders who wish to dispose their interests, instead of accepting the Option Offer, we would advise them to exercise their rights and then dispose their shareholding in the market if the net proceeds from such actions would exceed the net proceeds receivable under the Option Offer. Further, for Independent Shareholders who wish to retain their holdings and participate in the future prospect of the Group, they may elect to not accept the Share Offer in respect of part or all of their shareholding in the Company.

– 48 –

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

Independent Shareholders and the Optionholders are also reminded that their decisions to dispose or hold their investments or exercise their rights in the Shares or the Options are subject to their individual circumstances and investment objectives and they are reminded to carefully monitor the stock market and the trading price and liquidity of the Shares before the end of the Offers and consider to exercise their Options and/or selling their Shares in the open market, where possible, rather than accepting the Offers if the net proceeds from the market sale of their Shares after deducting all transaction costs are more than the net amount to be received under the Offers.

Yours faithfully, For and on behalf of Pelican Financial Limited Charles Li^ Director

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the year ended 30 June 2018

1. GENERAL

Summi (Group) Holdings Limited (formerly known as “Tianyi (Summi) Holdings Limited”) (the “Company”) is incorporated in the Cayman Islands as an exempted company with limited liability and its shares are listed on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “Stock Exchange”). Its parent and ultimate holding company is Key Wise Group Limited, a company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands (the “BVI”). The addresses of the registered office and principal place of business of the Company are disclosed in the “Corporate Information” section to the annual report.

Pursuant to a special resolution passed at the annual general meeting held on 24 October 2017, the English name of the Company was changed from “Tianyi (Summi) Holdings Limited” to “Summi (Group) Holdings Limited” and the Chinese name of the Company was changed from “天溢(森美)控股有限公司” to “森美(集團)控股有限公司”. The “Certificate of Incorporation on Change of Name” was issued by the Registrar of Company in the Cayman Islands on 30 November 2017.

The Company and its subsidiaries (hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Group”) are principally engaged in plantation and sale of agricultural produce, production and sale of frozen concentrated orange juice (“FCOJ”) and other related products and production and sale of Summi 100% freshly squeezed orange juice (“Summi fresh orange juice”).

The Company’s functional currency is Hong Kong dollars (“HK$”) while that for the major subsidiaries in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”) is Renminbi (“RMB”). As the operation of the Group is mainly held in the PRC, the directors of the Company (the “Directors”) consider that it is appropriate to present the consolidated financial statements in RMB.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION

As disclosed in note 34(c), the Group did not meet the repayment schedule of certain bank loans in the amount of United States dollars (“US$”) 20,000,000 (equivalent to approximately RMB132,706,000) subsequent to 30 June 2018 in accordance with the terms and conditions of a facility agreement (the “Facility Agreement”) entered into among the Company and a group of banks (the “Participating Banks”) in respect of the bank loans with a principal amount of US$80,000,000 (equivalent to approximately RMB530,826,000) (the “Facility”).

The above condition indicates the existence of material uncertainties which may cast significant doubt about the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Up to the date of approval for issuance of the consolidated financial statements, the Group has already repaid US$5,000,000 (equivalent to approximately RMB33,176,000) and obtained consents of the Participating Banks to extend the repayment of the remaining US$15,000,000 (equivalent to RMB99,530,000) to 31 October 2018 and would not call for immediate repayment of the remaining sum of the loan.

The Directors are of the opinion that, taking into account the consents of the Participating Banks and cash flow forecast of the Group for a period covering not less than twelve months from 30 June 2018 prepared by the Directors, the Group will have sufficient working capital to finance its operations and to meet its financial obligations as and when they fall due within twelve months from 30 June 2018. Accordingly, the Directors are satisfied that it is appropriate to prepare the consolidated financial statements on a going concern basis. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the carrying amount and reclassification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Group be unable to continue as a going concern.

3. APPLICATION OF NEW AND REVISED INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS (“IFRS(s)”)

In the current year, the Group has applied the following new and revised IFRSs, which include IFRSs, International Accounting Standards (“IAS(s)”), amendments and Interpretations (“Int(s)”), issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (the “IASB”).

Amendments to IFRSs Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2014–2016 Cycle:

3. APPLICATION OF NEW AND REVISED INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS (“IFRS(S)”) (Continued)

Except as described below, the application of the other new and revised IFRSs in the current year has had no material impact on the Group’s financial performance and positions for the current and prior years and/or on the disclosures set out in these consolidated financial statements.

Amendments to IAS 7 Disclosure Initiative

The amendments require entities to provide disclosures that enable users of financial statements to evaluate changes in liabilities arising from financing activities, including both changes arising from cash flows and non-cash changes. The amendments do not prescribe a specific method to fulfil the new disclosure requirements. However, the amendments indicate that one way is to provide a reconciliation between the opening and closing balances for liabilities arising from financing activities.

The application of amendments to IAS 7 has resulted in additional disclosures on the Group’s financing activities, especially a reconciliation between the opening and closing balances in the consolidated statement of financial position for liabilities arising from financing activities is provided in note 48. On initial application of the amendments, the Group is not required to provide comparative information for preceding periods. Apart from the additional disclosure in note 48, the Directors considered that these amendments have had no impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements.

New and revised IFRSs issued but not yet effective (Continued)

IFRS 9 (2014) Financial Instruments

IFRS 9 issued in 2009 introduces new requirements for the classification and measurement of financial assets. IFRS 9 was amended in 2010 and includes the requirements for the classification and measurement of financial liabilities and for derecognition. In 2013, IFRS 9 was further amended to bring into effect a substantial overhaul of hedge accounting that will allow entities to better reflect their risk management activities in the financial statements. A finalised version of IFRS 9 was issued in 2014 to incorporate all the requirements of IFRS 9 that were issued in previous years with limited amendments to the classification and measurement by introducing a “fair value through other comprehensive income” (“FVTOCI”) measurement category for certain financial assets. The finalised version of IFRS 9 also introduces an “expected credit loss” model for impairment assessments.

Key requirements of IFRS 9 (2014) are described as follows:

  • All recognised financial assets that are within the scope of IFRS 9 (2014) to be subsequently measured at amortised cost or fair value. Specifically, debt investments that are held within a business model whose objective is to collect the contractual cash flows, and that have contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal outstanding are generally measured at amortised cost at the end of subsequent accounting periods. Debt instruments that are held within a business model whose objective is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, and that have contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding, are measured at FVTOCI. All other debt investments and equity investments are measured at their fair values at the end of subsequent reporting periods. In addition, under IFRS 9 (2014), entities may make an irrevocable election to present subsequent changes in the fair value of an equity investment (that is not held for trading) in other comprehensive income, with only dividend income generally recognised in profit or loss.

  • With regard to the measurement of financial liabilities designated as at fair value through profit or loss, IFRS 9 (2014) requires that the amount of change in the fair value of the financial liability that is attributable to changes in the credit risk of that liability is presented in other comprehensive income, unless the recognition of the effects of changes in the liability’s credit risk in other comprehensive income would create or enlarge an accounting mismatch in profit or loss. Changes in fair value of financial liabilities attributable to changes in the financial liabilities’ credit risk are not subsequently reclassified to profit or loss. Under IAS 39, the entire amount of the change in the fair value of the financial liability designated as fair value through profit or loss was presented in profit or loss.

  • In the aspect of impairment assessments, the impairment requirements relating to the accounting for an entity’s expected credit losses on its financial assets and commitments to extend credit were added. Those requirements eliminate the threshold that was in IAS 39 for the recognition of credit losses. Under the impairment approach in IFRS 9 (2014) it is no longer necessary for a credit event to have occurred before credit losses are recognised. Instead, expected credit losses and changes in those expected credit losses should always be accounted for. The amount of expected credit losses is updated at each reporting date to reflect changes in credit risk since initial recognition and, consequently, more timely information is provided about expected credit losses.

  • IFRS 9 (2014) introduces a new model which is more closely aligns hedge accounting with risk management activities undertaken by companies when hedging their financial and non-financial risk exposures. As a principle-based approach, IFRS 9 (2014) looks at whether a risk component can be identified and measured and does not distinguish between financial items and non-financial items. The new model also enables an entity to use information produced internally for risk management purposes as a basis for hedge accounting. Under IAS 39, it is necessary to exhibit eligibility and compliance with the requirements in IAS 39 using metrics that are designed solely for accounting purposes. The new model also includes eligibility criteria but these are based on an economic assessment of the strength of the hedging relationship. This can be determined using risk management data. This should reduce the costs of implementation compared with those for IAS 39 hedge accounting because it reduces the amount of analysis that is required to be undertaken only for accounting purposes.

IFRS 9 (2014) Financial Instruments (Continued)

IFRS 9 (2014) will become effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018 with early application permitted.

The Directors have performed a preliminary analysis of the Group’s financial instruments as at 30 June 2018 based on the fact and circumstances existing at that date. The Directors have assessed the impact of adoption of IFRS 9 (2014) on the Group’s results and financial position, including the classification categories and the measurement of financial assets, and disclosures, as follows:

(a) Classification and measurement

The Directors expect to continue recognising initially at fair value for all financial assets which are subsequently measured at amortised costs. The Directors anticipate that the adoption of IFRS 9 (2014) will not have a material impact on the classification and measurement of the financial assets.

(b) Impairment

The Directors expect to apply the simplified approach and record lifetime expected credit losses that are estimated based on the present value of all cash shortfalls over the remaining life of all of its trade receivables, other receivables and deposits. The application of the expected credit loss model may result in earlier recognition of credit losses for trade receivables, other receivables and deposits and increase the amount of impairment allowance recognised for these items.

The Directors will perform a more detailed analysis which considers all reasonable and supportable information for the estimation of the effect of adoption of IFRS 9 (2014). Based on the preliminary assessment, the Directors expect that the adoption of IFRS 9 (2014) will not have other material impact on amounts reported in the Group’s consolidated financial statements.

IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The core principle of IFRS 15 is that an entity should recognise revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Thus, IFRS 15 introduces a model that applies to contracts with customers, featuring a contract-based five-step analysis of transactions to determine whether, how much and when revenue is recognised. The five steps are as follows:

  • (i) Identify the contract with the customer;

  • (ii) Identify the performance obligations in the contract;

  • (iii) Determine the transaction price;

  • (iv) Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations; and

  • (v) Recognise revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

IFRS 15 also introduces extensive qualitative and quantitative disclosure requirements which aim to enable users of the financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers.

IFRS 15 will supersede the current revenue recognition guidance including IAS 18 Revenue, IAS 11 Construction Contracts and the related interpretations when it becomes effective.

IFRS 15 will become effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018 with early application permitted.

3. APPLICATION OF NEW AND REVISED INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS (“IFRS(S)”) (Continued)

New and revised IFRSs issued but not yet effective (Continued) IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Continued)

The major sources of revenue of the Group are sales of goods. Under IFRS 15, revenue is recognised for each of the performance obligations when control over a good is transferred to a customer. The Directors have preliminarily assessed each type of the performance obligations and consider that the performance obligations are similar to the current identification of separate revenue components under IAS 18 Revenue. Furthermore, IFRS 15 requires the transaction price to be allocated to each performance obligation on a relative stand-alone selling price basis, which may affect the timing and amounts of revenue recognition, and results in more disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. However, the Directors expect that the adoption of IFRS 15 will not have a material impact on the timing and amounts of revenue recognised based on the existing business model of the Group as at 30 June 2018.

IFRS 16 Leases

IFRS 16 provides a comprehensive model for the identification of lease arrangements and their treatment in the financial statements of both lessors and lessees.

In respect of the lessee accounting, the standard introduces a single lessee accounting model, requiring lessees to recognise assets and liabilities for all leases with the lease term of more than 12 months, unless the underlying asset has a low value.

At the commencement date of the lease, the lessee is required to recognise a right-of-use asset at cost, which consists of the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability, plus any lease payments made to the lessor at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received, the initial estimate of restoration costs and any initial direct costs incurred by the lessee. A lease liability is initially recognised at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at that date.

Subsequently, the right-of-use asset is measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liability. Lease liability is subsequently measured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability, reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payment made, and remeasuring the carrying amount to reflect any reassessment or lease modifications or to reflect revised in-substance fixed lease payments. Depreciation and impairment expenses, if any, on the right-of-use asset will be charged to profit or loss following the requirements of IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment, while interest accrual on lease liability will be charged to profit or loss.

In respect of the lessor accounting, IFRS 16 substantially carries forward the lessor accounting requirements in IAS 17 Leases. Accordingly, a lessor continues to classify its leases as operating leases or finance leases, and to account for those two types of leases differently.

IFRS 16 will supersede the current lease standards including IAS 17 Leases and the related interpretations when it becomes effective.

IFRS 16 will become effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019 with early application permitted provided that the entity has applied IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers at or before the date of initial application of IFRS 16.

As at 30 June 2018, the Group has non-cancellable operating lease commitments of approximately RMB1,265,000 in relation to its rented office properties. A preliminary assessment indicates that these arrangements will meet the definition of a lease under IFRS 16, and hence the Group will recognise a right-of-use asset and a corresponding liability in respect of all these lease unless they qualify for low value or short-term leases upon the application of IFRS 16. In addition, the application of new requirements may result changes in the measurement, presentation and disclosure as indicated above. The Directors are in the process to determine the amounts of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities to be recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position, after taking into account all practical expedients and recognition exemption under IFRS 16. The Directors expect that the adoption of IFRS 16 will not have material impact on the Group’s result but certain portion of these lease commitments will be required to be recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities.

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRSs issued by the IASB. In addition, the consolidated financial statements include applicable disclosures required by the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Stock Exchange and by the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for biological assets and derivative financial instruments that are measured at fair values, 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.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the principal (or most advantageous) market at the measurement date under current market conditions (i.e. an exit price) regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. Details of fair value measurement are explained in the accounting policies set out below.

The principal accounting policies are set out below.

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and entities controlled by the Company (i.e. its subsidiaries).

Control is achieved where the Group has: (i) the power over the investee; (ii) exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and (iii) the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of the Group’s returns.

The Company reassess whether it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of these elements of control stated above.

Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control of the subsidiary and cease when the Group loses control of the subsidiary.

Income and expenses of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income from the date the Group gains control until the date when the Group ceases to control the subsidiary.

Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income of subsidiaries are attributed to the owners of the Company. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Company.

All intra-group assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between entities of the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation.

Goodwill

Goodwill arising from a business combination is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses, if any.

For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the Group’s cash-generating units (or groups of cash-generating units) that is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Goodwill (Continued)

A cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually or more frequently when there is indication that the unit may be impaired. For goodwill arising on an acquisition in a reporting period, the cashgenerating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment before the end of that reporting period. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit on a pro rata basis based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Any impairment loss for goodwill is recognised directly in profit or loss. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods.

Revenue recognition

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

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the goods are delivered and titles have passed, at which time all the following conditions are satisfied:

  • the Group has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods;

  • the Group retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor effective control over the goods sold;

  • the amount of revenue can be measured reliably;

  • it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Group; and

  • the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.

Interest income from a financial asset is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest income 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.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment including buildings held for use in the production or supply of goods or for administrative purposes, other than construction in progress, are stated in the consolidated statement of financial position at cost less subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses, if any.

Depreciation is recognised so as to allocate the cost of items of property, plant and equipment, other than construction in progress, less their residual values over their estimated useful lives, 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.

Construction in progress includes property, plant and equipment in the course of construction for production or administrative purposes. Construction in progress is carried at cost less any recognised impairment loss. Costs include professional fees and, for qualifying assets, borrowing costs capitalised in accordance with the Group’s accounting policy. Construction in progress is classified to the appropriate categories of property, plant and equipment when completed and ready for intended use. Depreciation of these assets, on the same basis as other property assets, commences when the assets are ready for their intended use.

Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in profit or loss.

Leasing

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

The Group as lessee

Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, except where another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed.

Leasehold land and building

When a lease includes both land and building elements, the 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 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 land use rights in the consolidated statement of financial position and is amortised over the lease term on a straight-line basis. 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.

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 at the dates of the transactions. At the end of the reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. 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.

For the purposes of presenting the consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the Group’s foreign operations are translated into the presentation currency of the Group (i.e. RMB) using exchange rates prevailing at the end of each reporting period. Income and expenses items are translated at the average exchange rates for the year. Exchange differences arising, if any, are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity under the heading of exchange reserve.

Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.

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

Biological assets

Biological assets comprise oranges before harvested in leased orange farms and are classified as current assets due to short harvesting period.

Biological assets are stated at fair value less costs to sell from initial measurement up to the point of harvest, except where fair value cannot be measured reliably due to unavailability of market-determined prices and no reliable alternative estimates exist to determine fair value in which case the assets are held at cost less impairment losses (if any). Once the fair value becomes reliably measurable, the biological assets are measured at fair value less costs to sell. Where assets are held at fair value, changes in fair value are taken to the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. Costs to sell include all costs that would be necessary to sell the assets, excluding costs necessary to get the assets to market.

After harvesting, oranges are transferred to inventories as agricultural produce at their deemed cost which is fair value at the point of harvest less costs to sell. Fair value at the point of harvest is based on the selling prices for similar oranges prevailing in the market as at or close to the harvest dates.

Government grants

Government grants are not recognised until there is reasonable assurance that the Group will comply with the conditions attaching to them and that the grants will be received.

Government grants are recognised in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the periods in which the Group recognises as expenses the related costs for which the grants are intended to compensate. Specifically, government grants whose primary condition is that the Group should purchase, construct or otherwise acquire non-current assets are recognised as deferred income in the consolidated statement of financial position and transferred to profit or loss on a systematic and rational basis over the useful lives of the related assets.

Government grants that are receivable as compensation for expenses or losses already incurred or for the purpose of giving immediate financial support to the Group with no future related costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they become receivable.

Retirement benefit costs

Payments to defined contribution schemes including state-managed retirement benefit schemes and the Mandatory Provident Fund Scheme (the “MPF Scheme”) are recognised as an expense when employees have rendered service entitling them to the contributions.

Short-term employee benefits

A liability is recognised for benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries in the period the related service is rendered at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in exchange for that service.

Taxation

Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

The tax currently payable is based on the taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from “profit before tax” 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 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 consolidated financial statements and the corresponding tax bases 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 difference to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) 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 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.

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 Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

Current and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets acquired separately

Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are carried at costs less accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses (see the accounting policy in respect of impairment losses on tangible and intangible assets below). Amortisation for intangible assets with finite useful lives is recognised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and amortisation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.

Intangible assets acquired in a business combination

Intangible assets acquired in a business combination are recognised separately from goodwill and are initially recognised at their fair value at the acquisition date (which is regarded as their cost).

Subsequent to initial recognition, intangible assets acquired in a business combination with finite useful lives are carried at costs less accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses (see the accounting policy in respect of impairment losses on tangible and intangible assets below). Amortisation for intangible assets with finite useful lives is recognised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives and amortisation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Costs of inventories are determined using the weighted average method. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price for inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale.

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 Group’s financial assets comprise held-to-maturity investment and loans and receivables. The classification depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets and is determined at the time of initial recognition. All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace.

Effective interest method

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a debt instrument 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 and points 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 debt instrument, 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.

Held-to-maturity investment

Held-to-maturity investment is non-derivative financial asset with fixed or determinable payment and fixed maturity date that the Group’s management has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity.

The Group designated the investment in debt security as held-to-maturity investment because the debt security has fixed payment and maturity date and the Group has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. Subsequent to initial recognition, held-to-maturity investment is measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any identified impairment loss (see accounting policy on impairment of financial assets below).

Interest income is recognised by applying the effective interest rate, except for short-term receivables when the effect of discounting is immaterial.

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 trade receivables, other receivables and deposits, pledged bank deposits and cash and cash equivalents) are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any identified impairment losses (see accounting policy on impairment of financial assets below).

Impairment of financial assets

Financial assets are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. Financial assets 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 financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the financial assets have been affected.

Financial assets (Continued)

Impairment of financial assets (Continued)

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 into bankruptcy or financial re-organisation; or

  • disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties.

For certain categories of financial asset, such as trade and other 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 a portfolio of receivables could include the Group’s past experience of collecting payments, an increase in the number of delayed payments in the portfolio past the average credit period, observable changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with default on receivables.

For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of the 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 the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of trade receivables, other receivables and deposits, 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 trade receivables, other receivables and deposits are considered uncollectible, they are written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited to profit or loss.

For financial assets measured at amortised cost, if, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment 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 the impairment not been recognised.

Financial liabilities and equity instruments

Debt 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 and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.

The Group’s financial liabilities are classified into other financial liabilities.

Other financial liabilities

Other financial liabilities including trade payables, other payables and accruals, bank loans and corporate bonds are subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest method.

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 and points 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.

Equity instruments

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

Derivative financial instruments

Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value at the date when a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured to their fair value at the end of the reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately.

Derecognition

A financial asset is derecognised 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.

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 and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity is recognised in profit or loss.

A financial liability is derecognised when, and only when, the 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.

Equity-settled share-based payments

The fair value of services received determined by reference to the fair value of share options granted at the date of grant is (i) expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period or (ii) recognised as an expense in full at the grant date when the share options granted vest immediately, with a corresponding increase in equity (capital reserve).

At the end of the reporting period, the Group revises its estimates of the number of options that are expected to ultimately vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates during the vesting period, if any, is recognised in profit or loss such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate, with a corresponding adjustment to capital reserve.

When share options are exercised, the amount previously recognised in capital reserve will be transferred to share premium. When the share options are forfeited after the vesting date or are still not exercised at the expiry date, the amount previously recognised in capital reserve will be transferred to retained profits.

Shares held under the share award scheme

Own equity instruments which are reacquired (shares held under the share award scheme) are recognised at cost and deducted from equity. No gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the Group’s own equity instruments. Any difference between the carrying amount and the consideration is recognised in equity. The number of shares held by the trustee under the share award scheme would be eliminated against the corresponding amount of share capital issued in the calculation of the earnings per share for profit attributable to owners of the Company.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents in the consolidated statement of financial position comprise cash on hand and at banks with a maturity of three months or less.

For the purpose of the consolidated statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and at banks as defined above.

Impairment losses on tangible and intangible assets (other than impairment of goodwill set out in accounting policy in respect of goodwill above)

At the end of the reporting period, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets with finite useful lives 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 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 of disposal 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 immediately in profit or loss.

Fair value measurement

When measuring fair value except for the Group’s share-based payment transactions, leasing transactions, net realisable value of inventories and value in use of goodwill for the purpose of impairment assessment, the Group takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.

A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

Fair value measurement (Continued)

The Group uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs. Specifically, the Group categorised the fair value measurements into three levels, based on the characteristics of inputs, as follow:

Level 1 Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable.

Level 3 Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.

At the end of the reporting period, the Group determines whether transfer occur between levels of the fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities which are measured at fair value on recurring basis by reviewing their respective fair value measurement.

5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY

In the application of the Group’s accounting policies, which are described in note 4, the Directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses reported and disclosures made in the consolidated financial statements. 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 ongoing 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 have made in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised and disclosures made in the consolidated financial statements.

Going concern and liquidity

As explained in note 2, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis and have not included any adjustments that would be required should the Group fail to continue as a going concern since the Directors are satisfied that the liquidity of the Group can be maintained in the coming year after taking into the considerations as detailed in note 2. The Directors also believe that the Group will have sufficient cash resources to satisfy its future working capital and other financing requirements for the next twelve months from 30 June 2018.

Legal title of buildings

Despite the Group had paid the full purchase consideration for the buildings, formal titles of certain of the Group’s rights to the use of the buildings were not yet granted from the relevant government authorities as stated in note 18. In the opinion of the Directors, the absence of formal title to these buildings does not impair the value of the relevant properties to the Group.

Held-to-maturity investment

The Directors have reviewed the Group’s held-to-maturity investment in the light of its capital maintenance and liquidity requirements and have confirmed the Group’s positive intention and ability to hold the asset to maturity. The carrying amount of the held-to-maturity investment is approximately RMB16,918,000 (2017: RMB17,372,000). Details of these assets are set out in note 23.

5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY (Continued)

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 resulting in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.

Impairment of goodwill

Determining whether goodwill is impaired requires an estimation of the value-in-use of the cash-generating units to which goodwill has been allocated. The value-in-use calculation requires the Group to estimate the future cash flows expected to arise from the cash-generating unit and a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value. Where the actual future cash flows are less than expected, a material impairment loss may arise. As at 30 June 2018, the carrying amount of goodwill was approximately RMB56,696,000 (2017: RMB56,696,000). During the years ended 30 June 2018 and 2017, no impairment loss was recognised. Details of the recoverable amount calculation are disclosed in note 21.

Amortisation and estimated impairment of intangible assets

The Directors determine the estimated useful lives and related amortisation charges for intangible assets (customer list and customer relationship). This estimate is based on the estimated churn periods of the customer base and experience in similar business. The Directors will increase the amortisation charge where useful lives are less than previously estimated lives.

Customer list and customer relationships are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.

For customer relationship, as the business relationship had been ended during the year ended 30 June 2015 and the Directors considered that no revenue would be generated from the customer relationship, the customer relationship had been fully impaired during the year ended 30 June 2015.

As at 30 June 2018, the carrying amount of intangible assets was approximately RMB38,978,000 net of accumulated impairment loss of approximately RMB46,507,000 (2017: RMB42,007,000, net of accumulated impairment loss of approximately RMB46,507,000). During the years ended 30 June 2018 and 2017, no impairment loss was recognised.

Depreciation of property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, after taking into account the estimated residual values. The management reviews the estimated useful lives and the residual values of the assets regularly in order to determine the amount of depreciation expense to be recorded during any reporting period. The determination of the useful lives and the residual values are based on the historical experience with similar assets and taking into account anticipated technological changes. The depreciation expense for future periods is adjusted if there are significant changes from previous estimates.

Depreciation of property, plant and equipment for the year ended 30 June 2018 was approximately RMB46,023,000 (2017: RMB40,424,000) was recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

Net realisable value of inventories

The management of the Group reviews the inventories listing on a product-by-product basis at the end of the reporting period. The management estimates the net realisable value for such items based primarily on the latest invoice prices and current market conditions and the historical experience of manufacturing and selling products of similar nature. As at 30 June 2018, the carrying amount of inventories was approximately RMB57,131,000 (2017: RMB56,330,000). During the year ended 30 June 2018, write-off of inventories of approximately RMB4,111,000 (2017: RMB2,712,000) was recognised.

5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY (Continued)

Key sources of estimation uncertainty (Continued)

Impairment of trade receivables

When there is objective evidence of impairment loss, the Group takes into consideration the estimation of future cash flows. The amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate (i.e. the effective interest rate computed at initial recognition). Where the actual future cash flows are less than expected, a material impairment loss may arise. As at 30 June 2018, the carrying amount of trade receivables was approximately RMB168,505,000 (2017: RMB123,341,000). During the years ended 30 June 2018 and 2017, no impairment loss was recognised.

Classification of lease prepayment for orange plantations

Prepayment for orange plantations are amortised on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of respective orange plantations when they become productive. The management estimates the year of amortisation, which will be capitalised in biological assets, by taking into account of the current status of each orange plantation. As at 30 June 2018, the carrying amount of lease prepayment for orange plantations was approximately RMB1,087,416,000 (2017: RMB1,088,374,000).

Fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce

The Group’s biological assets, representing oranges before harvest, are measured at cost from initial recognition unless fair value can be reliably measured.

All oranges are harvested shortly before the calendar year end. At the end of each reporting period, only little biological transformation for the following year’s harvest has taken place and therefore biological assets are stated at cost as the Directors consider that their fair value cannot be measured reliably and no reliable alternative estimates exist to determine the fair value.

In addition, for the reasons set out in note 27, the Directors consider that there is no active market for the biological assets at the end of June each year and their fair value cannot be measured reliably and no reliable alternative estimates exist to determine fair value. Therefore, the biological assets at the end of June continue to be stated at cost less impairment losses (if any).

Once the fair value of the Group’s biological assets becomes reliably measurable, they are then measured at their fair value less costs to sell.

The Group’s agricultural produce, representing mature oranges ready for harvest, are measured at fair value less costs to sell at the point of harvest and transferred to inventories. The Directors are of the view that there is no quoted price in the market and the fair value is therefore determined based on the most recent market price as at or close to the harvest dates in the local area.

As at 30 June 2018, the carrying amount of biological assets was approximately RMB169,119,000 (2017: RMB99,310,000).

Key sources of estimation uncertainty (Continued)

Income tax

The Group operates in the agricultural industry in the PRC, in which income tax exemptions are granted to certain subsidiaries of the Group. There are certain agricultural transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination may be uncertain. The Group recognises income tax expense and related liabilities for anticipated tax issues based on estimates that tax exemption will be granted to the Group on an ongoing basis. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the current and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.

Fair value of derivatives financial instruments

As described in note 7(c), the Directors use their judgment in selecting an appropriate valuation technique for financial instruments not quoted in an active market. Valuation techniques commonly used by market practitioners are applied. For derivative financial instruments, assumptions are made based on quoted market rates adjusted for specific features of the instrument. As at 30 June 2018, the carrying amount of the derivative financial assets and derivative financial liabilities is approximately RMB2,986,000 (2017: RMB12,652,000) and RMB960,000 (2017: nil) respectively. Details of the assumptions used are disclosed in note 7(c). The Directors believe that the chosen valuation techniques and assumptions are appropriate in determining the fair value of derivative financial instruments.

6. CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the 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 overall strategy of the Group remains unchanged from prior year.

The capital structure of the Group consists of net debts, which includes bank loans and corporate bonds, net of cash and cash equivalents and equity attributable to owners of the Company, comprising issued share capital and reserves.

The Directors review the capital structure on a semi-annual basis. As part of this review, the Directors consider the cost of capital and the risks associated with each class of capital. Based on recommendations of the Directors, the Group will balance its overall capital structure through the payment of dividends, the issue of new shares as well as the issue of new debts or the redemption of existing debts.

Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries are subject to externally imposed capital requirements, except for the debt covenant requirement of the loan agreements entered into.

7. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (Continued)

b. Financial risk management objectives and policies

The Group’s major financial instruments include derivative financial instruments, held-to-maturity investment, trade receivables, other receivables and deposits, pledged bank deposits, cash and cash equivalents, trade payables, other payables and accruals, bank loans and corporate bonds. 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.

Market risk

(i) Currency risk

The functional currencies of certain subsidiaries are HK$ or RMB.

The companies of the Group mainly operated in their local jurisdiction with most of the transactions settled in their functional currencies of the operations and did not have significant exposure to risk resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. However, certain bank loans, derivative financial instrument, bank balances and pledged bank deposits of the Group are denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the respective subsidiaries which expose the Group to currency risk. The Group currently does not have a foreign currency hedging policy. However, the management monitors foreign exchange exposure and will consider hedging significant foreign currency exposure should the need arise.

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

Assets Liabilities
2018 2017
2018
2017
RMB’000 RMB’000
RMB’000
RMB’000
US$ 199,625 229,987
451,103
674,931
RMB 411 245
200,036 230,232
451,103
674,931

As HK$ is pegged to US$ and the currency risk in response to changes in transactions denominated in US$ and RMB are insignificant, sensitivity analysis on currency risk is not presented.

(ii) Interest rate risk

The Group is exposed to fair value interest rate risk in relation to fixed-rate held-to-maturity investment (note 23), derivative financial instruments (note 24), pledged bank deposits (note 30), bank loans (note 34) and corporate bonds (note 35).

The Group is also exposed to cash flow interest rate risk in relation to variable-rate bank balances (note 31) and bank loans (note 34). It is the Group’s policy to keep certain of its bank loans at floating rate of interests so as to minimise the fair value interest rate risk.

The Group’s exposures to interest rates on financial liabilities are detailed in the liquidity risk management section of this note. The Group currently does not have an interest rate hedging policy. However, the management monitors interest rate exposure and will consider other necessary actions when significant interest rate exposure is anticipated.

The Group’s cash flow interest rate risk is mainly concentrated on the fluctuation of London Inter-bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) arising from the Group’s US$ denominated bank loans.

7. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (Continued)

  • b. Financial risk management objectives and policies (Continued)

  • Market risk (Continued)

  • (ii) Interest rate risk (Continued)

    • Sensitivity analysis

It is estimated that a general increase/decrease of 100 basis points (2017: 100 basis points) in interest rates, with all other variables held constant, would decrease/increase (2017: increase/decrease) the Group’s profit after tax and retained profits by approximately RMB1,452,000 (2017: RMB355,000) for the year. This is mainly attributable to the Group’s exposure to interest rates on its variable-rate bank loans and bank balances.

The sensitivity analysis above has been determined based on the exposure to interest rates for non-derivative instruments at the end of the reporting period. The analysis is prepared assuming the financial instruments outstanding at the end of the reporting period were outstanding for the whole year. The 100 basis points (2017: 100 basis points) 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. The analysis is performed on the same basis for the year ended 30 June 2017.

Credit risk

As at 30 June 2018 and 2017, the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk which will cause a financial loss to the 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 statement of financial position.

The Group’s credit risk is primarily attributable to trade and other receivables. Management has a credit policy in place and the exposures to the credit risk are monitored on an ongoing basis.

In respect of trade and other receivables, individual credit evaluations are performed on all customers requiring credit over a certain amount. These evaluations focus on the customer’s past history of making payments when due and current ability to pay, and take into account information specific to the customers as well as pertaining to the economic environment in which the customers operate. Trade receivables are due within the credit period from the date of billing. Normally, the Group does not obtain collateral from customers.

The Group’s concentration of credit risk by geographical locations is mainly in the PRC, which accounted for 100% (2017: 99%) of the total trade receivable as at 30 June 2018.

The Group has concentration of credit risk as 25% (2017: nil) and 73% (2017: 66%) of the total trade receivables was due from the Group’s largest customer and the five largest customers respectively within the production and sale of FCOJ and other related products segment.

The credit risk on the Group’s liquid funds is limited because the counterparties are banks with high credit ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies.

b. Financial risk management objectives and policies (Continued)

Liquidity risk

The Group is exposed to liquidity risk as the Group is failed to repay the first installment of certain bank loans as disclosed in note 34(c). In the management of the liquidity risk, the Group regularly monitors its liquidity requirements and its compliance with lending covenants and ensure that it maintains sufficient reserves of cash to meet is liquidity requirements in the short and long term as disclosed in note 2.

The following table details the Group’s remaining contractual maturity for its non-derivative 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 Group can be required to pay. Specifically, bank loan with a repayment on demand clause is included in the earliest time band regardless of the probability of the bank choosing to exercise its right. The maturity dates for other non-derivative financial liabilities are based on the agreed repayment dates.

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 curves at the end of the reporting period.

In addition, the following table details the Group’s liquidity analysis for its derivative financial instruments. The tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted contractual net cash outflows on those derivative instruments that settle on a net basis. The liquidity analysis for the Group’s derivative financial instruments are prepared based on the contractual maturities as the management consider that the contractual maturities are essential for an understanding of the timing of the cash flows of derivatives.

Bank loan with a repayment on demand clause are included in the “less than 1 year or on demand” time band in the above maturity analysis. As at 30 June 2017, the aggregate undiscounted principal amounts of these bank loans amounted to RMB49,000,000 (2018: nil). Taking into account the Group’s financial position, the Directors did not believe that it was probable that the banks would exercise their discretionary rights to demand immediate repayment. The Directors believed that such bank loan would be repaid in accordance with the scheduled repayment dates set out in the loan agreements. At that time, the aggregate principal and interest cash outflows would amount to RMB53,386,000 (2018: nil).

The amounts included above for variable interest rate instruments for non-derivative financial liabilities are subject to change if changes in variable interest rates differ to those estimates of interest rates determined at the end of the reporting period.

Business risk

The Group’s revenue depends significantly on the ability to harvest oranges at adequate levels. The ability to harvest oranges in the Group’s leased orange farms and the growth of the oranges may be affected by unfavourable local weather conditions and natural disasters. Weather conditions such as floods, droughts, cyclones and windstorms and natural disasters such as earthquakes, fire, disease, insect infestation and pests are examples of such events. The occurrence of severe weather conditions or natural disasters may diminish the supply of oranges available for harvesting in the Group’s leased orange farms, which in turn may have a material adverse effect on the Group’s ability to produce the products in sufficient quantities and quality. The Group has procedures in place aimed at monitoring and mitigating exposures to diseases, including regular farms inspections and pesticide prevention.

The Group has certain concentration risk of sales to its current major customers. The Group’s revenue from the largest and the five largest customers amounted to approximately RMB119,144,000 (2017: RMB123,762,000) and RMB454,566,000 (2017: RMB436,229,000), which accounted for approximately 18% (2017: 20%) and 69% (2017: 72%) of the Group’s total revenue for the year ended 30 June 2018 and 2017 respectively. The Group has no long-term contractual arrangement with these customers and there is no assurance that these major customers will continue their business dealings with the Group or that the revenue generated from dealing with these customers will increase or be maintained in the future. In the event that these customers ceased to purchase products from the Group and the Group could not secure orders from other customers, the Group’s turnover and profitability would be adversely affected.

The Group is exposed to financial risks arising from changes in prices of oranges, concentrated orange juice, Summi fresh orange juice and the change in cost and supply of fertiliser and pesticides, all of which are determined by constantly changing market forces of supply and demand, and other factors. The other factors include environmental regulations, weather conditions and diseases. The Group has little or no control over these conditions and factors. The Directors manage the risk by operating in several major plantation areas so as to reduce the concentration of sources of oranges.

8. REVENUE AND SEGMENT INFORMATION

Revenue represents the revenue arising on the sales of fresh oranges, FCOJ and other related products and Summi fresh orange juice.

The Group determines its operating segments based on the information reported to the chief operating decision maker, being the senior executive management of the Group, for making strategic decisions and assessing the performance of each operating segment. The segments are managed separately as each operating segment offers different products which require different production information to formulate different strategies. No operating segment identified by the chief operating decision maker has been aggregated in arriving at the reportable segments of the Group.

The Group’s reportable and operating segments are as follows:

  1. Plantation and sale of agricultural produce

  2. Production and sale of FCOJ and other related products

  3. Production and sale of Summi fresh orange juice

Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Cayman Islands and the BVI, the Group is not subject to any income tax in the Cayman Islands and the BVI for both years.

Hong Kong Profits Tax is calculated at 16.5% on the estimated assessable profits for both years. No provision has been made for Hong Kong Profits Tax as there are no assessable profits generated for both years.

The provision for PRC EIT is based on the respective applicable rates on the estimated assessable profit of the Company’s subsidiaries in the PRC as determined in accordance with the relevant income tax rules and regulations of the PRC for both years.

With effect from 1 January 2011, the Company’s subsidiaries which are responsible for orange juice production are exempt from EIT on profits from orange juice production, pursuant to Cai Shui [2008] No. 149 issued by the Ministry of Finance of the PRC. Accordingly, from 1 January 2011, certain subsidiaries of the Group in the PRC (i.e. cultivation and selling of self-cultivated fresh oranges and orange juice production) are exempt from EIT, subject to annual review by the local PRC tax authority of the Company’s subsidiaries and any future changes in the relevant tax exemption policies or regulations. These subsidiaries obtained the tax exemption from the local PRC tax authority for the years ended 30 June 2018 and 2017.

The applicable income tax rate for the rest of the Group’s operating subsidiaries in the PRC is 25% for both years.

The computation of diluted earnings per share for the years ended 30 June 2018 and 2017 does not assume the exercise of the Company’s options because the exercise price of those options was higher than the average market price for shares.

On 9 November 2011, the Group acquired entire equity interests in Global One Management Limited (“Global One”) and its subsidiaries (collectively referred as the “Global One Group”), and goodwill of approximately RMB56,696,000 was recognised and had been allocated to production and sale of FCOJ and other related products segment upon acquisition.

Impairment test on goodwill

The Directors conducted impairment review on goodwill attributable to Global One Group at 30 June 2018 by reference to a valuation report issued by Fuson Appraisal Limited (2017: Royson Valuation Advisory Limited), an independent qualified professional valuer not connected with the Group, who has among its staff members of the Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors. The recoverable amount of Global One Group has been determined by reference to value in use calculations. The calculation uses cash flow projections based on financial budgets approved by management covering a five-year period, and at a discount rate of approximately 16% per annum (2017: 16.5% per annum). The cash flows beyond the five-year period are extrapolated using 3% (2017: 3%) average growth rate. These average growth rates are based on the relevant industry growth rates forecasts and do not exceed the long-term average growth rate for the relevant industry. Other key assumptions for the value in use calculations relate to the estimation of cash inflows/outflows including budgeted sales and gross margin, such estimation is based on the past experience and management’s expectations for the market development. The Directors believe that any reasonably possible change in any of these assumptions would not cause the carrying amount of the CGU to exceed its recoverable amount.

Notes:

(a) The Directors measured the fair value of oranges at harvest based on market prices as at or close to the harvest dates.

(b) All oranges were harvested annually and harvest season was commenced shortly before the calendar year end with the duration of five months. The Directors considered that there was no active market for the oranges before harvest at the end of the reporting period. The present value of expected cash flows was not considered a reliable measure of their fair value due to the need for, and use of, subjective assumptions including weather condition, natural disaster and effectiveness of agricultural chemicals. As such, the Directors considered that the fair value of biological assets at the end of the reporting period could not be measured reliably and no reliable alternative estimates existed to determine fair value. Therefore, biological assets continued to be stated at cost as at 30 June 2018 and 2017.

The carrying value of biological assets as at 30 June 2018 and 2017 represented cultivation costs incurred including fertilisers, pesticides, labour costs and orange farm rental costs.

37. EQUITY-SETTLED SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS (Continued)

The fair value of the share options granted was calculated using the Binomial model. The inputs into the model were as follows:

19 November
2015
Weighted average share price HK$1.10
Exercise price HK$1.11
Expected volatility 45.80%
Expected life 5 years
Risk-free rate 1.578%
Expected dividend yield 0%

Expected volatility was determined by reference to the historical volatility of the Company’s share price over the previous 5 years. The expected life used in the model has been adjusted, based on management’s best estimate, for the effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions and behavioural considerations.

Risk-free interest rate represents the yields to maturity of Hong Kong Exchange Fund Note with respective terms to maturity at the valuation date.

The Group recognised the total expenses of approximately RMB3,480,000 for the year ended 30 June 2018 (2017: RMB8,924,000) in relation to share options granted by the Company.

The Binomial model has been used to estimate the fair value of the options. The variables and assumptions used in computing the fair value of the share options are based on the Directors’ best estimate. The value of an option varies with different variables of certain subjective assumptions.

38. SHARES HELD UNDER SHARE AWARD SCHEME

On 11 September 2015, the Company adopted the share award scheme (the “Scheme”) under which shares of the Company (the “Awarded Shares”) may be awarded to the certain employees including directors and senior management of the Group (“Eligible Participants”), to provide incentives or rewards for their commitment and/or contribution to the Group and to provide them with a direct economic interest in attaining the long-term business objectives of the Group. The Share Award Scheme shall be valid and effective for a period of ten years commencing on the adoption date, i.e., 11 September 2015.

The aggregate number of Awarded Shares permitted to be awarded under the Share Award Scheme throughout the duration of the Scheme is limited to 10% of the issued share capital of the Company as at the adoption date.

For the year ended 30 June 2018

38. SHARES HELD UNDER SHARE AWARD SCHEME (Continued)

The Company has set up a trust (the “Trust”) for the purpose of facilitating the purchase, holding and sale of shares in the Group for the benefit of the employees of the Group. All the shares repurchased by the Group through the Trust in the Stock Exchange are recorded as treasury stock in the reserve and are for the Scheme only.

When an Eligible Participant has satisfied all vesting conditions, which might include service and/or performance conditions, specified by the board of directors of the Company at the time of making the award and become entitled to the shares of the Company forming the subject of the award, the trustee shall transfer the relevant Awarded Shares to that employee.

The voting rights and powers of any shares held under the Scheme shall be exercised by the independent trustee who shall abstain from voting.

During the year ended 30 June 2017, the trustee acquired 1,936,000 (2018: nil) ordinary shares of the Company for the Scheme through purchases in the open market, at a total cost, including related transaction costs, of HK$1,000,000 (equivalent to approximately RMB856,000) (2018: nil).

As at 30 June 2018 and 2017, no share was granted to Eligible Participant and all the Awarded Shares are remain at the Trust.

39. RETIREMENT BENEFITS PLANS

The Group operated the MPF Scheme for all qualifying employees in Hong Kong. The assets of the Scheme were held separately from those of the Group, in funds under the control of trustees. The Group contributes 5% of relevant payroll costs to the Scheme, of which the contribution was matched by employees and subject to HK$1,500 per employee.

The employees of the Group’s subsidiaries in the PRC are members of a state-managed retirement benefit scheme operated by the government of the PRC. The subsidiaries are required to contribute 5% to 13% of payroll costs to the retirement benefit scheme to fund the benefits. The only obligation of the Group with respect to the retirement benefit scheme is to make the specified contributions.

The total expense recognised in profit or loss of approximately RMB10,012,000 (2017: RMB9,247,000) represents contributions payable to these schemes by the Group in respect of the current reporting period.

The movements in deferred tax liabilities of the Group during the year were as follows:

Intangible assets subsidiaries Total

At 1 July 2016 11,627 1,250 12,877

At 30 June 2017 and 1 July 2017 10,501 1,250 11,751
Credited to profit or loss (1,126) (1,126)
At 30 June 2018 9,375 1,250 10,625

At 30 June 2018, the Group has unused tax losses of approximately RMB41,304,000 (2017: RMB25,930,000) available for offset against future profits. No deferred tax asset has been recognised in respect of such losses due to the unpredictability of future profit streams. Included in unrecognised tax losses are losses of approximately RMB27,544,000 (2017: RMB18,013,000) that will be expired after five years from the year of assessment to which they related to. Other losses may be carried forward indefinitely.

Pursuant to the EIT Law, 10% withholding tax is levied on foreign investors (5% for foreign investors registered in Hong Kong provided they meet certain criteria) in respect of dividend distributions arising from a foreign investment enterprise’s profit earned after 1 January 2008. At 30 June 2018 and 2017, the Directors believed that should the Group determine to distribute profits of the Group’s PRC subsidiaries in the foreseeable future, the Group will be able to obtain the approval for the preferential withholding tax of 5% in relation to the dividend income.

At 30 June 2018, deferred tax liabilities of RMB1,250,000 (2017: RMB1,250,000) have been recognised in respect of the tax that would be payable on the portion of the retained profits of the Group’s PRC subsidiaries which the Directors expect to be distributed by them in the foreseeable future, based on the assumption that the approval for the 5% preferential withholding tax rate will be obtained.

However, deferred tax liabilities associated with undistributed retained profits of PRC subsidiaries amounting to approximately RMB1,714,595,000 (2017: RMB1,602,039,000) have not been recognised at 30 June 2018, as the Company is able to control the dividend policy of the Group’s PRC subsidiaries and the Directors consider it probable that a portion of the undistributed retained profits earned by the Group’s PRC subsidiaries as at 30 June 2018 and 2017 will not be distributed in the foreseeable future.

(c) Statutory reserves

Statutory reserves were established in accordance with the relevant PRC rules and regulations and the articles of association of the Group’s PRC subsidiaries. Transfers to the reserves were approved by the directors of these companies.

The Group’s PRC subsidiaries are required to transfer no less than 10% of their net profits, as determined in accordance with the PRC accounting rules and regulations, to the statutory surplus reserve until the reserve balance reaches 50% of their registered capital.

The Group’s PRC subsidiaries made appropriations to discretionary surplus reserve in accordance with their board of directors’ resolutions.

(d) Exchange reserve

The exchange reserve comprises all foreign exchange differences arising from the translation of the financial statements of the Company. The reserve is dealt with in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 4.
