LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Ranking: The Conversion Shares will be issued upon conversion of the Convertible Bonds and will rank pari passu with the Shares then in issue.

Transferability: The Convertible Bonds are non-transferable. Voting right: The Convertible Bonds do not confer any voting right. Listing: Application for the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Conversion Shares to be allotted and issued upon the exercise of the conversion right under the Convertible Bonds will be made by the Company to the Stock Exchange.

Assuming full exercise of the conversion right attached to the Convertible Bonds at the Conversion Price of HK$0.2, the Company will issue a total of 135,600,000 Conversion Shares, representing:

  • (i) approximately 5.87% of the existing issued share capital of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date; and

  • (ii) approximately 4.68% of the issued share capital of the Company as enlarged by the issue and allotment of the Consideration Shares and the Conversion Shares upon full conversion of the Convertible Bonds.

The Consideration Shares and the Conversion Shares, when allotted and issued, shall rank pari passu in all respects among themselves and with all the existing Shares then in issue, including the right to receive all future dividends and distributions which may be declared, made or paid by the Company on or after the issue date of the Consideration Shares and the Conversion Shares. The Consideration Shares and the Conversion Shares will be issued under the specific mandate to be sought by the Shareholders at the SGM. Application for the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Consideration Shares and the Conversion Shares will be made by the Company to the Stock Exchange.

The issue price of HK$0.2 per Consideration Share at which the Consideration Shares will be allotted and issued and the Conversion Price of HK$0.2 per Conversion Share (subject to adjustment) represents:

  • (i) a premium of approximately 25% over the closing price of HK$0.16 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the date of the Agreement;

  • (ii) a premium of approximately 24.53% over the average closing price of approximately HK$0.1606 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the last 5 consecutive trading days up to and including the date of the Agreement;

— 8 —

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

  • (iii) a premium of approximately 31.67% over the average closing price of approximately HK$0.1519 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the last 10 consecutive trading days up to and including the date of the Agreement;

  • (iv) a premium of approximately 60.77% over the average closing price of approximately HK$0.1244 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the last 30 consecutive trading days up to and including the date of the Agreement;

  • (v) a premium of approximately 70.36% over the average closing price of approximately HK$0.1174 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the last 60 consecutive trading days up to and including the date of the Agreement;

  • (vi) a premium of approximately 67.36% over the average closing price of approximately HK$0.1195 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the last 360 consecutive trading days up to and including the date of the Agreement;

  • (vii) a discount of approximately 17.86% over the unaudited net asset value per Share of approximately HK$0.2435 as at 31 March 2021 based on the 2,308,866,570 Shares in issue as at the date of the Agreement; and

  • (viii) a premium of approximately 6.38% over the closing price of HK$0.188 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the Latest Practicable Date.

As calculated in accordance with Rule 7.27B of the Listing Rules, there is no theoretical dilution effect resulting from the issuance of the Consideration Shares and Conversion Shares given the issue price and the conversion price are higher than the prevailing market prices of the Shares. Save for the allotment and issue of the Consideration Shares and the Conversion Shares, and the issuance of 800,000,000 Shares at the issue price of HK$0.2 per Share under the Previous Acquisition, during the 12 month period immediately preceding the Latest Practicable Date, the Company has not undertaken (whether by reference to the Latest Practicable Date or the date of share issue) any rights issues, open offer or any other specific mandate placing.

The Issue Price and the Conversion Price were determined after arm’s length negotiation between the Company and Shenzhen Yaoling with reference to the recent price performance of the Shares and the prevailing market conditions.

The net asset value of the Company per Share is approximately HK$0.2435 as at 31 March 2021 calculated based on the net assets value of the Company as at 31 March 2021 of approximately HK$562,112,748 and 2,308,866,570 Shares. The Directors are aware that the Shares had been traded at a significant discount to the consolidated net asset value per Share in the past 6 months. The closing price during the period from 30 July 2020 (12 months before the date of the Agreement) up to the date of the Agreement ranged from a maximum of HK$0.165 per Share to a minimum of HK$0.079 per Share, and the average closing price is approximately HK$0.1130 during such period, which are all far below the net asset value of the Company per Share as at 31 March 2021. Hence, considering the prevailing market price and trading liquidity of the Company’s shares, which have been relatively low in the past 12 months, the Directors are of the view that the discount represented by the Conversion Price compared to the consolidated net asset value of the Company per Share would be fair and reasonable.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Group plans to develop the Dongguan Land into a mix of residential and commercial properties, part of which is for leasing purpose. It is currently intended that approximately 50% of the planned gross floor area (“ GFA ”) of the Dongguan Land will be used to construct residential properties for sales, and approximately 50% of the planned GFA of the Dongguan Land will be used for leasing purpose such as to construct commercial properties (for example, retail shops, car parking space, offices, etc.).

The project on the Dongguan Land is now under construction and all construction is expected to complete by the end of 2021. The Target Company has already launched pre-sale of the property on the Dongguan Land in 2020 and received good responses from the market. Approximately 65% of the total number of the sellable units of the property on the Dongguan Land has been sold (the “ Pre-Sales ”) according to the information available. This figure is subject to change because the Pre-Sales is ongoing and sometimes buyers may cancel the transaction before completion while new buyers may take up the forgone property. As at 31 March 2021, the contract liabilities of the Group mainly reflecting the amount receivable from the Pre-Sales amounted to approximately HK$435 million, which gradually increased to approximately HK$650 million as at the end of July 2021. It is expected that all construction will be completed by the end of 2021 and the sales of the remaining portion of the development will be completed by the first quarter of 2022.

It is expected that the total costs for the development of the Dongguan Land will amount to approximately RMB930,840,000 (among which the land purchase price of RMB511,840,000 was already settled) and the Target Company has already obtained borrowings of RMB224,999,585 to fund the project as at May 2021. The balance of the costs will be funded by the deposits and sale proceeds received by the Target Company.

The development of the Dongguan Land would be in line with the Company’s existing business. As stated above, the Group plans to develop the Dongguan Land into a mix of residential and commercial properties, part of which is for leasing purpose. Commercial properties, including shops, entertainment facilities and carparks, are typically integrated with residential properties in the vicinity, which the Company believes will not only diversify its source of income, but most importantly, generate more traffic in the locality and therefore enhance the value of, and drive the demand for, both its commercial and residential properties. As such, the Company considers that the engagement in property development is closely related to its existing property leasing business.

At present, the Target Company does not have other business plan after completion of the development of the Dongguan Land.

  • For illustration purpose only. In practice, the issue of the Conversion Shares is subject to the condition that Mr. Chen Weiwu holds not less than 50% equity interest in the Company.

The ultimate beneficial owners of Shenzhen Yaoling are Mr. Jiang Dingwei and Ms. Jiang Mengshan, who are cousins of Mr. Chen Weiwu, chairman of the Board and an executive Director (the ultimate beneficial owner(s) of Shanzhen Yaoling was changed from Mr. Zeng Qinghua, the cousin-in-law of Mr. Chen Weiwu, to Mr. Jiang Dingwei and Ms. Jiang Mengshan in mid-May 2021).

REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE ENTERING INTO OF THE TRANSACTIONS

The Company currently holds 35% equity interest in the Target Company and has control over the Target Company through the shareholders’ agreement. The Target Company has commenced the property project in Dongguan in 2020 and achieved satisfactory pre-sale results. Shenzhen Yaoling intends to dispose of the Sale Shares as a result of internal restructuring, so the Company believes that further acquisition of the shares of the Target Company at present would enable the Company to generate more revenue from the development project on the Dongguan Land.

Having considered the above factors, the Board considers that the terms of the Equity Sale and Purchase Agreement are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole.

The audited consolidated total assets, total liabilities and net assets of the Group as at 31 March 2021 as extracted from the annual report of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2021 were HK$1,896,678,339, HK$1,334,565,591 and HK$562,112,748 respectively. Based on the unaudited pro forma financial information of the Group as set out in the Appendix III to this circular, assuming completion of the Acquisition had taken place on 31 March 2021, the pro forma total assets and total liabilities of the Group would have been approximately HK$1,849,351,142 and approximately HK$1,354,401,591 respectively.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

INFORMATION OF THE COMPANY

The Company is an investment holding company principally engaged in property business. The Company has three segments. Money lending business represents the business of loan to customers, including individuals and corporations pursuant to the provisions of the Money Lenders Ordinance (Cap 163, laws of Hong Kong). Property sub-leasing and investment business represents the subleasing and leasing of investment properties. Property development business represents development of real estates.

INFORMATION OF SHENZHEN YAOLING

Shenzhen Yaoling is principally engaged in investment in industrial enterprises (specific projects to be separately reported); investment advisory (excluding restricted items); logistics solutions design, logistics information consulting; development and operation of real estate (on the land for which the right of use has been legally obtained); real estate brokerage; leasing of owned properties; domestic trade (excluding franchised, exclusive and proprietary goods); operation of import and export business; and logistics and warehousing.

APPROVAL OF THE BOARD

To the best of the Directors’ knowledge, information and belief and having made all reasonable enquiries, no Director has a material interest in the Equity Sale and Purchase Agreement except Mr. Chen Weiwu, the connected Director, who has material interest in the Acquisition due to his relationship with the ultimate beneficial owners of Shenzhen Yaoling. Other Directors have unanimously approved the Equity Sale and Purchase Agreement (Mr. Chen Weiwu, the connected Director, has abstained from voting), and consider that the terms of the Equity Sale and Purchase Agreement are on normal commercial terms, fair and reasonable, and the Equity Sale and Purchase Agreement is in the interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole.

IMPLICATIONS UNDER THE LISTING RULES

In July 2020, the Company completed the acquisition of 35% equity interest in the Target Company. As the Previous Acquisition and the Acquisition took place within a 12 month period, pursuant to Rule 14.22 of the Listing Rules, the Previous Acquisition and the Acquisition shall be aggregated. As certain percentage ratios (as defined under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules) in respect of the Acquisition (after aggregation) exceed 100%, the Acquisition constitutes a very substantial acquisition of the Company under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules and is therefore subject to the reporting, announcement and Shareholders’ approval requirements.

In addition, as at the date of the Latest Practicable Date, Shenzhen Yaoling holds 55% equity interest in the Target Company. Further, the ultimate beneficial owners of Shenzhen Yaoling, Mr. Jiang Dingwei and Ms. Jiang Mengshan, are cousins of Mr. Chen Weiwu, the chairman of the Board and an executive Director. Therefore, Shenzhen Yaoling is a connected person of the Company under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. Accordingly, the Acquisition also constitutes a connected transaction of the Company and is subject to the reporting, announcement and Independent Shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. The Consideration Shares will be issued under the specific mandate of the Company in accordance with the Listing Rules.

The following is the full text of a letter of advice from Rainbow Capital, the independent financial adviser to the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders in respect of the Acquisition, which has been prepared for the purpose of inclusion in this circular.

Rainbow Capital (HK) Limited

30 September 2021

To the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders

China Tangshang Holdings Limited Unit 1201, 12/F 29 Austin Road Tsim Sha Tsui Kowloon Hong Kong

Dear Sir or Madam,

VERY SUBSTANTIAL ACQUISITION AND CONNECTED TRANSACTION IN RELATION TO THE ACQUISITION OF THE TARGET COMPANY

INTRODUCTION

We refer to our appointment as the independent financial adviser to the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders in respect of the Acquisition, details of which are set out in the “Letter from the Board” (the “ Letter from the Board ”) contained in the circular issued by the Company to the Shareholders dated 30 September 2021 (the “ Circular ”), of which this letter forms part. Unless the context otherwise requires, capitalised terms used in this letter shall have the same meanings as those defined in the Circular.

On 30 July 2021, the Company entered into the Equity Sale and Purchase Agreement with Shenzhen Yaoling, pursuant to which the Company has agreed conditionally to acquire the Sale Shares from Shenzhen Yaoling at the Consideration of RMB137,300,000 (equivalent to HK$164,760,000), which shall be satisfied as to (i) RMB40,000,000 (equivalent to HK$48,000,000) by cash; (ii) HK$90,000,000 (equivalent to approximately RMB74,700,000) by the issue and allotment of 450,000,000 Consideration Shares at an issue price of HK$0.2 per Consideration Share (the “ Issue Price ”); and (iii) HK$27,120,000 (equivalent to approximately RMB22,600,800) by the issue of the Convertible Bonds. The Sale Shares represent 55% equity interest in the Target Company. The Company currently indirectly holds 35% equity interest in the Target Company which is a non wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Upon Completion, the Company will hold 90% equity interest in the Target Company and the financial statements of the Target Company will continue to be consolidated into the consolidated financial statements of the Group.

— 21 —

LETTER FROM RAINBOW CAPITAL

On 27 July 2020, the Company completed the acquisition of 35% equity interest in the Target Company. As the Previous Acquisition and the Acquisition took place within a 12-month period, pursuant to Rule 14.22 of the Listing Rules, the Previous Acquisition and the Acquisition shall be aggregated for the purpose of determining the percentage ratios. As the highest percentage ratio in respect of the Acquisition (after aggregation) exceeds 100%, the Acquisition constitutes a very substantial acquisition for the Company under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules. In addition, as at the Latest Practicable Date, Shenzhen Yaoling was beneficially owned by Mr. Jiang Dingwei and Ms. Jiang Mengshan who are the cousins of Mr. Chen Weiwu, the chairman of the Board and an executive Director of the Company. Therefore, Shenzhen Yaoling is a connected person of the Company under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. Accordingly, the Acquisition also constitutes a connected transaction for the Company, which is subject to the reporting, announcement and independent shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. The Consideration Shares and the Conversion Shares will be issued under the specific mandate to be sought from the Independent Shareholders at the SGM.

The Company will seek approval from the Independent Shareholders in respect of the Acquisition by way of a poll at the SGM. In view of the interest above, Mr. Chen Weiwu and his associates are required to abstain from voting in respect of the ordinary resolution approving the Acquisition at the SGM.

The Independent Board Committee, comprising all the three independent non-executive Directors, namely Mr. Chen Youchun, Ms. Lui Mei Ka and Mr. Zhou Xin, has been formed to advise the Independent Shareholders on whether the terms of the Acquisition are fair and reasonable, on normal commercial terms and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole, and advise the Independent Shareholders as to voting. We, Rainbow Capital, have been appointed as the independent financial adviser to advise the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders in this regard.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, we did not have any relationships or interests with the Group, Shenzhen Yaoling and Mr. Chen Weiwu that could reasonably be regarded as relevant to our independence. We have acted as the independent financial adviser to the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders in relation to (i) certain lease contracts, details of which are set out in the circular of the Company dated 25 February 2020; (ii) the acquisition of 35% equity interest in the Target Company, details of which are set out in the circular of the Company dated 22 June 2020; and (iii) certain lease contracts, details of which are set out in the circular of the Company dated 25 January 2021. Other than that, there was no engagement between the Group and us in the last two years. Apart from normal professional fees paid or payable to us in connection with this appointment as the Independent Financial Adviser, no arrangements exist whereby we had received any fees or benefits from the Group, Shenzhen Yaoling or Mr. Chen Weiwu. Accordingly, we are qualified to give independent advice in respect of the Acquisition.

BASIS OF OUR OPINION

In formulating our opinion and advice, we have relied on (i) the information and facts contained or referred to in the Circular; (ii) the information supplied by the Group; (iii) the opinions expressed by and the representations of the Directors and the management of the Group; and (iv) our review of the relevant public information. We have assumed that all the information provided and

— 22 —

LETTER FROM RAINBOW CAPITAL

representations and opinions expressed to us or contained or referred to in the Circular were true, accurate and complete in all respects as at the date thereof and may be relied upon. We have also assumed that all statements contained and representations made or referred to in the Circular are true at the time they were made and continue to be true as at the Latest Practicable Date and all such statements of belief, opinions and intentions of the Directors and the management of the Group and those as set out or referred to in the Circular were reasonably made after due and careful enquiry. We have no reason to doubt the truth, accuracy and completeness of the information and representations provided to us by the Directors and the management of the Group. We have also sought and received confirmation from the Directors that no material facts have been withheld or omitted from the information provided and referred to in the Circular and that all information or representations provided to us by the Directors and the management of the Group are true, accurate, complete and not misleading in all respects at the time they were made and continued to be so until the date of the Circular.

We consider that we have reviewed sufficient information currently available to reach an informed view and to justify our reliance on the accuracy of the information contained in the Circular so as to provide a reasonable basis for our recommendation. We have not, however, carried out any independent verification of the information provided, representations made or opinion expressed by the Directors and the management of the Group, nor have we conducted any form of in-depth investigation into the business, affairs, operations, financial position or future prospects of the Group, the Target Company or their respective substantial shareholders, subsidiaries or associates.

PRINCIPAL FACTORS AND REASONS CONSIDERED

In considering whether the terms of the Equity Sale and Purchase Agreement are fair and reasonable, we have taken into account the principal factors and reasons set out below:

1. Background information of the Group

The Group is principally engaged in (i) property sub-leasing and investment business; (ii) property development business; and (iii) money lending business.

The Group has undergone a series of transactions to restructure its businesses (the “ Restructuring ”). In December 2019 and December 2020, the Group entered into new lease contracts with Beijing Tian’an Innovation Technology and Estates Limited (“ BTIT ”) to diversify and expand its property sub-leasing business into Beijing, a first-tier city in the PRC. BTIT has agreed to provide a rental income guarantee of HK$51 million each year to the Group in 2021 and 2022. In December 2020, the Group disposed of its property sub-leasing business in Nanjing, the PRC, with a view to restructuring its property sub-leasing business by shifting the location of the business from a second-tier city to a first-tier city in the PRC. Since completion of the Previous Acquisition on 27 July 2020, the Target Company has been a non wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and its financial results have been consolidated into the financial statements of the Group, allowing the Group to engage in the property development business. During the year ended 31 March 2021, the Group ceased the exhibition-related business given the uncertain outlook caused by the continuous travel restrictions across the world as well as the food and beverages business to mitigate continuous loss.

Set out below is a summary of the consolidated financial information of the Group for the three years ended 31 March 2021 as extracted from the annual reports for the year ended 31 March 2021 (the “ 2021 Annual Report ”) and for the year ended 31 March 2020 of the Company:

Note:

The exhibition-related business and the food and beverage business were classified as discontinued operations for the year ended 31 March 2021.

Year ended 31 March 2021 (“ FY2021 ”) compared to year ended 31 March 2020 (“ FY2020 ”)

Property sub-leasing and investment business is the primary business of the Group, accounting for 100% of total revenue from continuing operations in FY2021.

— 24 —

LETTER FROM RAINBOW CAPITAL

Revenue from continuing operations decreased by approximately 15.0% from approximately HK$66.1 million in FY2020 to approximately HK$56.2 million in FY2021. Such decrease was primarily attributable to (a) the decrease in revenue from the property sub-leasing and investment business by approximately 14.2% mainly due to the weak market sentiment of the sub-leasing business in Nanjing as a result of the impact of COVID-19 pandemic; and (b) that no interest income was recognised in the money lending business in FY2021 as compared to approximately HK$0.6 million in FY2020.

Loss attributable to the Shareholders from continuing operations decreased from approximately HK$34.4 million in FY2020 to approximately HK$12.7 million in FY2021, primarily attributable to the increase in gain on disposal of right-of-use assets from approximately HK$10.2 million in FY2020 to approximately HK$27.8 million in FY2021.

The property sub-leasing and investment business recorded segment loss of approximately HK$0.3 million in FY2021 as compared to a segment profit of approximately HK$11.0 million in FY2020, mainly resulting from the increase in fair value loss on investment properties of the Group from approximately HK$24.3 million in FY2020 to approximately HK$56.0 million in FY2021. The property development business recorded a segment loss of approximately HK$11.0 million in FY2021 since the Company acquired the entire equity interest in Topper Genius Investment Limited (“ Topper Genius ”) which is principally engaged in the property development business and no revenue was generated during the year.

In FY2021, the exhibition-related business and the food and beverages business were disposed to mitigate continuous loss. Excluding the gain on disposal of the discontinued operations, the Group incurred segment losses in the exhibition-related business and the food and beverages business in the last three years.

FY2020 compared to year ended 31 March 2019 (“ FY2019 ”)

Revenue from the property sub-leasing and investment business accounted for approximately 99.1% of total revenue from continuing operations in FY2020.

Revenue from continuing operations increased by approximately 38.1% from approximately HK$47.9 million in FY2019 to approximately HK$66.1 million in FY2020, primarily attributable to the significant increase in revenue from the property sub-leasing and investment business by approximately 44.5% to approximately HK$65.5 million in FY2020 as compared to FY2019, as a result of the increase in rent for existing and new tenants in sub-leasing certain properties in Nanjing, the PRC and the acquisition of a PRC company engaging in sub-leasing business in Shenzhen in October 2018. Such increase was partially offset by the decrease in revenue from the money lending business by approximately 75.4% to approximately HK$0.6 million in FY2020.

— 25 —

LETTER FROM RAINBOW CAPITAL

The increase in loss attributable to the Shareholders from approximately HK$18.9 million in FY2019 to approximately HK$37.3 million in FY2020 was primarily due to (a) the fair value loss on investment properties after adoption of Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standard 16 – Leases; and (b) the provision for financial guarantee in FY2020.

In FY2019 and FY2020, while the exhibition-related business and the food and beverages business incurred segment losses, the property sub-leasing and investment business and the money lending business recorded segment profits.

As at 31 March 2021, total assets of the Group were approximately HK$1,896.7 million, which mainly included (a) properties under development of approximately HK$770.4 million attributable to the development on the Dongguan Land, namely Tangshang Hanlin Manion (唐商翰林府) (the “ Property ”), due to the acquisition of Topper Genius; (b) trade and other receivables of approximately HK$337.6 million, primarily relating to prepayments to contractors and refundable deposits for various potential business development projects; (c) finance lease receivables of approximately HK$301.6 million; (d) investment properties of approximately HK$284.4 million; and (e) cash and bank balances of approximately HK$175.9 million. The significant increase in finance lease receivables and investment properties was due to the entering into of new lease contracts with BTIT in December 2020. Excluding the cash and bank balances of the Target Company, the Group had cash and bank balances of approximately HK$61.2 million as at 31 March 2021.

As at 31 March 2021, total liabilities of the Group were approximately HK$1,334.6 million, which mainly included (a) lease liabilities of approximately HK$549.9 million; (b) contract liabilities of approximately HK$434.8 million, primarily attributable to the deposits and instalments received on properties sold prior to the date of revenue recognition; and (c) bank and other borrowings of approximately HK$289.5 million for the development of the Property, which were secured and interest-bearing at 7.24% per annum.

— 27 —

LETTER FROM RAINBOW CAPITAL

As at 31 March 2021, the Group had net current assets of approximately HK$492.8 million with a gearing ratio of approximately 31.1%. As a result of the issue of the consideration shares to finance the acquisition of Topper Genius, equity attributable to the Shareholders increased significantly to approximately HK$365.0 million as at 31 March 2021. As stated in the 2021 Annual Report, the Directors consider that the Group was in a healthy financial position.

Based on (a) the equity attributable to the Shareholders of approximately HK$365.0 million as at 31 March 2021; and (ii) 2,308,866,570 issued Shares as at the Latest Practicable Date, the net asset value per Share was approximately HK$0.1581 (the “ NAV per Share ”).

(iii) Overall comment

After completion of the Restructuring, the Group’s core business segments comprise the property sub-leasing and investment business in Beijing, the PRC, and the property development business through its 35% equity interest in the Target Company. The property sub-leasing and investment business has been generating relatively stable revenue during the three years ended 31 March 2021 and BTIT has agreed to provide a rental income guarantee of HK$51 million each year to the Group in 2021 and 2022. As for the property development business, the Target Company has commenced the pre-sale of the Property since 2020. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Property was under still construction and is expected to be completed by the end of 2021. Through the Restructuring, equity attributable to the Shareholders has been enhanced substantially.

While the property sub-leasing and investment business will continue to provide a stable revenue stream to the Group, the property development business represents a growth potential for the Group taking into account the industry outlook as stated in the section headed “4. Industry overview” below. We consider that the Acquisition represents an opportunity for the Group to further consolidate its interest in the Target Company so as to substantially capture the potential growth of the Target Company and to strengthen its capital and reserves.

6. Other alternative methods of financing

The Consideration shall be satisfied as to (i) RMB40,000,000 (equivalent to HK$48,000,000) by cash; (ii) HK$90,000,000 (equivalent to approximately RMB74,700,000) by the issue and allotment of the Consideration Shares; and (iii) HK$27,120,000 (equivalent to approximately RMB22,600,800) by the issue of the Convertible Bonds. This is an approximately 30:55:15 split (the “ Split ”) among cash, equity and debt financing.

Relative to the Group’s cash and bank balances of approximately HK$61.2 million as at 31 March 2021 (excluding the cash and cash equivalents of the Target Company), it is not possible to satisfy the Consideration of RMB137,300,000 (equivalent to HK$164,760,000) significantly in cash. We concur with the Directors that the issue of the Consideration Shares and the Convertible Bonds to satisfy a majority of the Consideration shall reduce the cash outlay for the Acquisition to a level which is within the Group’s financial capacity and reserve sufficient working capital for the operations of the Group. In determining the split between the Consideration Shares and the Convertible Bonds, the Directors have considered both the dilution impact on the shareholdings of the existing Shareholders and the impact on the Group’s gearing ratio.

Taking into account (i) the size of the Acquisition; (ii) the internal resources and working capital requirement of the Group; (iii) the potential lengthy negotiations with banks for any debt financing and the requirement of interest payments for any bank borrowing, as compared to the zero-coupon Convertible Bonds; (iv) the potential significant discount of the price of a private placement or a rights issue or open offer to the current market price, as compared the premiums of the Issue Price over the historical Share prices; and (v) the impact on the shareholdings of the existing Shareholders and the gearing ratio of the Group, we consider the Split to be an appropriate method of financing.

7. Valuation of the Property

The Consideration is determined with reference to the net asset value of the Target Company of approximately RMB249.6 million as at 31 March 2021. The carrying amount of the Property was approximately RMB643.2 million as at 31 March 2021. The Property was valued by the Valuer at RMB716 million as at 30 June 2021.

— 37 —

LETTER FROM RAINBOW CAPITAL

We have conducted an interview with the Valuer to enquire its experience in valuing similar property interests in the PRC and its independence. We have also reviewed the terms of engagement of the Valuer, in particular to its scope of work. We noted that its scope of work is appropriate to form the opinion required to be given and there are no limitations on the scope of work which might adversely impact on the degree of assurance given by the Valuer in the Valuation Report. We have also performed work as required under note (1)(d) to the Listing Rule 13.80 in relation to the Valuer and its work as regards the Valuation.

The Valuer confirmed that it has performed a site visit to the Property. We have discussed with the management of the Group to understand the latest status as well as the development and funding plans of the Property.

When arriving at the Valuation, the Valuer has valued the Property on the basis that the Property will be developed and completed in accordance with the latest development plan and adopted the direct comparison approach by making reference to comparable sales evidences as available in the relevant market and taking into account the expended and outstanding construction costs to reflect the quality of the completed development. As stated in the Valuation Report, the valuation is conducted in compliance with Chapter 5 and Practice Note 12 of the Listing Rules and the HKIS Valuation Standards 2020 issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors. We have reviewed and discussed with the Valuer regarding the methodology, basis and assumptions adopted in arriving at the value of the Property. We have also reviewed the valuation methodologies adopted for similar types of properties of certain property companies and noted that the methodology adopted in the Valuation Report is usual. Taking into consideration of the nature of the Property and that the Valuation is conducted in accordance with the aforesaid requirements, we consider that the methodology, basis and assumptions adopted by the Valuer for determining the value of the Property are appropriate.

8. Evaluation of the Consideration

(i) Basis of the Consideration

The Consideration is RMB137,300,000 (equivalent to HK$164,760,000), which was determined with reference to the net asset value of the Target Company of approximately RMB249.6 million as at 31 March 2021.

As discussed in the section headed “2. Information of the Target Company and the Property – (i) The Target Company” above, the Target Company is principally engaged in property development in the PRC and its net asset value as at 31 March 2021 primarily consisted of (a) the Property; (b) prepayments, deposits and other receivables; (c) contract liabilities; and (d) bank borrowings. Taking into account (a) the significant property interests held by the Target Company; and (b) that the Target Company has not yet generated any revenue as the Property is still under development, we consider that it is appropriate to use the reassessed net asset value (the “ Reassessed NAV ”) to assess the Consideration.

— 38 —

LETTER FROM RAINBOW CAPITAL

According to the accountants’ report of the Target Company as set out in Appendix II to the Circular, properties under development, being the Property, are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The Reassessed NAV of the Target Company reflects its underlying net asset backing after taking into account the valuation of the Property performed by the Valuer, an independent property valuer, as extracted from Appendix IV to the Circular:

RMB’000
(Approximate)
Audited net asset value of the Target Company as at 31 March 2021

Equity interest of the Target Company to be acquired under the
Acquisition 55%
The Group’s share of the Reassessed NAV of the Target
Company under the Acquisition 163,272
The Consideration 137,300
Discount of the Consideration to Group’s share of the Reassessed
NAV of the Target Company under the Acquisition 15.9%

Notes:

1. Extracted from Appendix II to the Circular.

2. Represents the revaluation surplus arising the difference between the valuation of the Property of RMB716 million as at 30 June 2021 as extracted from Appendix IV to the Circular and the unaudited carrying amount of the Property of approximately RMB668.8 million as at 30 June 2021.

As shown above, the Consideration represents a discount of approximately 15.9% to the Group’s share of the Reassessed NAV of the Target Company under the Acquisition based on the valuation of the Property prepared by the Valuer.

The Valuer has adopted the direct comparison approach in valuing the Property as at 30 June 2021 which we consider appropriate in estimating the market value of the Property. For details of our assessment on the appropriateness of the valuation methodology adopted by the Valuer, please refer to the section headed “7. Valuation of the Property” above.

Based on the above, we consider the Consideration to be fair and reasonable.

Taking into account that (1) the Issue Price represents a substantial premium of approximately 26.50% over the NAV per Share of approximately HK$0.1581 as at 31 March 2021; (2) the premiums of the Issue Price over the closing Share prices for various periods in the 360 trading days up to and including the Last Trading Day are significant, in the range of approximately 24.53% to 81.16%; and (3) the Share price generally closed below the Issue Price (468 trading days, accounting for approximately 94.5% of a total of 495 trading days) during the Review Period, we consider that the Issue Price is fair and reasonable as far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned.

(iii) The Convertible Bonds

Pursuant to the Equity Sale and Purchase Agreement, part of the Consideration in the amount of HK$27,120,000 (equivalent to approximately RMB22,600,800) is to be satisfied by the issue of the Convertible Bonds upon Completion.

In evaluating the fairness and reasonableness of the principal terms of the Convertible Bonds, we have, on a best effort basis, researched and identified an exhaustive list of convertible bonds or notes (the “ Comparable CBs ”) issued or to be issued by companies listed on the Stock Exchange as consideration for acquisitions conducted by the respective listed companies which were announced during the period from 2 July 2020 to the Latest Practicable Date (being approximately one year) (the “ Comparable Period ”). Based on the aforesaid criteria, we have identified an exhaustive list of 11 Comparable CBs.

Independent Shareholders should note that the principal business, market capitalisation, profitability and prospects of the Company and the terms of the Convertible Bonds are not the same as, or even substantially vary from, those of the Comparable CBs and their respective issuers. We consider that the Comparable CBs, whether issued to connected persons or independent third parties, are relevant to our analysis given they are providing a general reference on recent market practice or normal commercial terms.

We consider that the Comparable CBs represent fair and representative samples given (i) the Comparable CBs adequately cover the prevailing market conditions and sentiments of the capital market in Hong Kong; (ii) the Comparable CBs identified during the Comparable Period represent recent structures of convertible bonds or notes issued as consideration for acquisitions by companies listed on the Stock Exchange; (iii) similarity of the nature of the convertible bond or note exercises; and (iv) the sufficient number (i.e. size of 11) of the Comparable CBs identified.

LETTER FROM RAINBOW CAPITAL

(a) Maturity and coupon rate

As shown in the table above, the Comparable CBs have maturity terms ranging from two years to perpetual with coupon rates between zero and 5% per annum. The maturity term and coupon rate of the Convertible Bonds are five years and zero, respectively, which are in line with the market. We consider the setting of a maturity term of five years with zero coupon rate for the Convertible Bonds will allow the Company to avoid an immediate cash outflow and save finance costs and potential refinancing costs in the future.

(b) Conversion price

The Conversion Price of HK$0.2 per Conversion Share equals to the Issue Price, which represents significant premiums over the closing Share prices for various periods in the 360 trading days up to and including the Last Trading Day as well as the NAV per Share, in the range of approximately 24.53% to 81.16%, as mentioned in the section headed “8. Evaluation of the Consideration — (i) Basis of the Consideration — (ii) The Consideration Shares — (a) Price comparison of the Issue Price” above.

As shown in the table above, the conversion prices of the Comparable CBs ranged from:

  • (1) a discount of approximately 14.29% to a premium of approximately 289.58% to/ over the closing price per share on/ prior to the date of agreement, with a median of a premium of approximately 6.38%; and

  • (2) a discount of approximately 7.12% to a premium of approximately 336.92% to/ over the average closing price per share for the last five consecutive trading days prior to/ up to and including the date of agreement, with a median of a premium of approximately 6.88%.

The premiums, as represented by the Conversion Price over the closing price per Share on the Last Trading Day and the average closing price per Share for the last five consecutive trading days up to and including the Last Trading Day, are approximately 25.00% and 24.53%, respectively, which are within the ranges, and higher than the medians, of those of the Comparable CBs.

Based on the above, we consider the Conversion Price to be fair and reasonable.

— 47 —

LETTER FROM RAINBOW CAPITAL

(c) Adjustments to conversion price

Pursuant to the terms of Convertible Bonds, the Conversion Price will be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of, among other things, (1) consolidation, sub-division and reclassification of the Shares; (2) capitalisation of profits or reserves; (3) capital distribution by the Company to the Shareholders; (4) rights issue of the Shares, options or warrants or other securities; (5) issue of the Shares or other securities at a price less than 80% of the market price of the Shares; (6) modification of the rights of conversion, exchange or subscription of securities at a price less than 80% of the market price of the Shares; and (7) other offers made by the Company or its subsidiaries or other persons to the Shareholders in connection with an offer to which the Shareholders are generally entitled to participate.

In assessing the fairness and reasonableness of the adjustment terms of the Convertible Bonds, we have reviewed the relevant adjustment terms of the Comparable CBs and noted that the conversion prices of the Comparable CBs are subject to adjustment upon occurrence of similar adjustment events as the Convertible Bonds including, among other things, share consolidation or sub-division, capitalisation of profits or reserves, capital distribution, rights issue, issue/ modification of shares or other securities at a price less than a certain percentage of current market price and other offers made to the shareholders. Therefore, we consider that the adjustment terms of the Convertible Bonds on the Conversion Price are usual and normal which are comparable to those of other convertible bonds in the market.

9. Financial effects of the Acquisition

Since completion of acquisition of 35% equity interest in the Target Company on 27 July 2020, the Target Company has become a non wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the financial information of the Target Company has been consolidated into the financial statements of the Group. Upon Completion, the Company’s equity interest in the Target Company will increase from 35% to 90%, and the financial information of the Target Company will continue to be consolidated into the financial statements of the Group. The unaudited pro forma financial information of the Group (the “ Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information ”) is set out in Appendix III to the Circular.

(i) Earnings

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Property was still under construction. It is expected that the construction of the Property will be completed by the end of 2021. As disclosed in the Letter from the Board, although the Target Company has not yet generated any revenue, it has already launched the pre-sale of the Property in 2020 and received good responses from the market. Upon Completion, the Company will further consolidate its interest in the Target Company and 90% of the net profit of the Target Company will be attributable to the Company. The Directors expect that the Target Company will contribute to the results of the Group as the residential and commercial units in the Property are gradually delivered or leased out.

— 48 —

LETTER FROM RAINBOW CAPITAL

(ii) Equity attributable to the Shareholders

As set out in the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information, assuming Completion took place on 31 March 2021, the pro forma consolidated equity attributable to the Shareholders (“ NAV ”) would be approximately HK$460.2 million, representing an increase of approximately 26.1% from approximately HK$365.0 million as at 31 March 2021. The pro forma NAV upon Completion has taken into account, among other things, the increase in the Company’s equity interest in the Target Company, the payment of the cash portion of the Consideration, the Share Issue and the issue of the Convertible Bonds.

We set out below the NAV and pro forma NAV, on a per Share basis, of the Group based on the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information:

The Group
The Group as at immediately
**31 March 2021 ** upon Completion
NAV (HK$) 364,960,320 460,220,363
Total number of Shares in issue 2,308,866,570 2,758,866,570
NAV per Share (HK$) 0.1581 0.1668
Percentage increase in NAV per Share 5.5%

As shown in the table above, the pro forma NAV per Share has increased by approximately 5.5% to approximately HK$0.1668 immediately after Completion, since the Issue Price of the Consideration Shares of HK$0.2 per Consideration Share is higher than the NAV per Share of approximately HK$0.1581 as at 31 March 2021.

(iii) Gearing

The gearing ratio of the Group, defined as the sum of total bank and other borrowings, bills payables and convertible bonds minus cash and bank balances and divided by total equity attributable to the Shareholders, is expected to increase from approximately 31.1% as at 31 March 2021 to approximately 39.0% immediately after Completion, primarily attributable to the payment of cash to settle part of the Consideration and the issue of the Convertible Bonds which is partially offset by the issue and allotment of the Consideration Shares.

— 49 —

LETTER FROM RAINBOW CAPITAL

(iv) Working capital

The Consideration shall be partly satisfied by cash payment of RMB40,000,000 (equivalent to approximately HK$48,000,000) on the Completion Date, which shall be funded by the Group’s internal resources. As at 31 March 2021, the Group had cash and bank balances of approximately HK$61.2 million, excluding the cash and bank balances of the Target Company. The development of the Property has been financed by bank borrowings of the Target Company and the proceeds from the pre-sale of the Property. Given a majority of the Consideration is to be satisfied by the issue of the Consideration Shares and the zero-coupon Convertible Bonds with a maturity term of five years, we consider that the Acquisition would not have a material impact on the working capital of the Group.

The Directors confirm that, after due and careful enquiry and taking into account the existing bank balances and cash, internal resources, available credit facilities and the effect of the transactions, the Group will have sufficient working capital for its present requirements for a period of 12 months from the date of the Circular.

It should be noted that the aforementioned analyses are for illustrative purpose only and do not purport to represent how the financial performance and position of the Group will be upon Completion.

10. Shareholding structure

The following table sets out the shareholding structure of the Company (i) as at the Latest Practicable Date; (ii) immediately after the Completion and the issue and allotment of the Consideration Shares; and (iii) immediately after the Completion and the allotment and issue of the Consideration Shares and the Conversion Shares (assuming no further Shares are issued between the Latest Practicable Date and the Completion Date):

— 50 —

LETTER FROM RAINBOW CAPITAL

The issue of the Consideration Shares and the Convertible Bonds allows the Company to limit the cash consideration required for the Acquisition to an acceptable level. Assuming the there was no further issue of Shares between the Latest Practicable Date and the Completion Date, the shareholding in the Company held by existing public Shareholders would be diluted from approximately 40.24% as at the Latest Practicable Date to approximately 33.68% upon the Completion and the allotment and issue of the Consideration Shares. It should be noted that the exercise of the conversion right under the Convertible Bonds by Shenzhen Yaoling is subject to Mr. Chen Weiwu, the controlling Shareholder, holding not less than 50% equity interest in the Company. Following Completion, the Independent Shareholders would be able to secure additional interests in the Target Company and therefore the Property, which is expected to contribute to the results of the Group following the delivery or leasing of the residential and commercial properties in the future.

OPINION AND RECOMMENDATION

In arriving at our recommendation in respect of the Equity Sale and Purchase Agreement and the Acquisition, we have considered the principal factors and reasons as discussed above and in particular the following (which should be read in conjunction with and interpreted in the full context of this letter):

• Consolidation of equity interest in the Target Company

After completion of the Restructuring, the Group’s core business segments comprise the property sub-leasing and investment business in Beijing, the PRC, and the property development business through its 35% equity interest in the Target Company. While the property sub-leasing and investment business will continue to provide a stable revenue stream to the Group, the property development business represents a growth potential for the Group in view of the industry outlook (see below). The Target Company has commenced the pre-sale of the Property since 2020. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Property was under still construction and is expected to be completed by the end of 2021.

Prior to the Acquisition, the Target Company is owned as to 35% by the Company and is a non wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Upon Completion, the Company will hold 90% equity interest in the Target Company and 90% of the net profit of the Target Company will be attributable to the Company. As a result, the Acquisition represents an opportunity for the Group to further consolidate its interest in the Target Company so as to capture additional share in the results of the Target Company.

— 51 —

LETTER FROM RAINBOW CAPITAL

• Industry outlook

The Property is located at Xiegang Town, Dongguan, the PRC.

During the period from 2016 to 2020, with a moderate growth in supply of commodity properties as evidenced by the amount of completed investment in property development, the average selling price of online contracted sales of newly constructed commodity properties in Dongguan, the PRC, increased significantly at a CAGR of approximately 12.9%, indicating a strong demand for properties. According to Dongguan Bureau of Statistics, the property market in Dongguan, the PRC, in the first half of 2021 grew significantly with an increase in investment in property development and average selling price of online contracted sales area of newly constructed commodity properties by approximately 24.5% and 24.3%, respectively, as compared to the corresponding period in 2020, as the market is recovering from the COVID-19 outbreak.

As regards the property market in Xiegang Town, Dongguan, the PRC, both online contracted sales value and average selling price of online contracted sales of newly constructed residential properties have been increasing rapidly during the period from 2016 to the first half of 2021, indicating a sustained demand for residential properties.

Based on the above, we consider that the outlook for the property market in Dongguan, the PRC, will be generally positive in the long run, providing a favorable environment for the Group’s property development business.

• Consideration

The Consideration of RMB137,300,000 (equivalent to HK$164,760,000) is determined with reference to the net asset value of the Target Company of approximately RMB249.6 million as at 31 March 2021. The Consideration represents a discount of approximately 15.9% to the Group’s share of the Reassessed NAV of the Target Company under the Acquisition based on an independent valuation of the Property which is conducted by the Valuer based on the direct comparison approach. We consider the valuation methodology adopted by the Valuer is appropriate.

The Consideration shall be satisfied as to (i) RMB40,000,000 (equivalent to HK$48,000,000) by cash; (ii) HK$90,000,000 (equivalent to approximately RMB74,700,000) by the issue and allotment of the Consideration Shares; and (iii) HK$27,120,000 (equivalent to approximately RMB22,600,800) by the issue of the Convertible Bonds. This is an approximately 30:55:15 split among cash, equity and debt financing. In view of the size of the Acquisition, the internal resources and working capital requirement of the Group and the impact on the shareholdings of the existing Shareholders and the gearing ratio of the Group, we regard this split to be an appropriate method of financing.

— 52 —

LETTER FROM RAINBOW CAPITAL

• Issue Price of the Consideration Shares compared to market and NAV

The Issue Price of HK$0.2 per Consideration Share represents significant premiums over the closing Share prices for various periods in the 360 trading days up to and including the Last Trading Day, in the range of approximately 24.53% to 81.16%.

In addition, the Share price generally closed below the Issue Price (468 trading days, accounting for approximately 94.5% of a total of 495 trading days) during the Review Period, being approximately two years preceding the Last Trading Day.

The Issue Price also represents a considerable premium of approximately 26.50% over the NAV per Share of approximately HK$0.1581 as at 31 March 2021.

On the above basis, we consider the Issue Price to be fair and reasonable.

• Terms of the Convertible Bonds

The principal terms of the Convertible Bonds are fair and reasonable after considering the following:

  • (i) the setting of the Convertible Bonds with zero coupon and a maturity term of five years allows the Company to avoid an immediate cash outflow and minimise its finance costs and repayment pressure given the size of the Acquisition and the Group’s existing financial resources;

  • (ii) the premiums of the Conversion Price over the closing Share prices for various periods in the 360 trading days up to and including the Last Trading Day are significant, in the range of 24.53% to 81.16%;

  • (iii) the premiums as represented by the Conversion Price over the closing Share price on the Last Trading Day and the average closing price of the Shares for the last five consecutive trading days up to and including the Last Trading Day are within the ranges, and higher than the medians, of those of the Comparable CBs; and

  • (iv) the adjustment terms on the Conversion Price represent usual and normal adjustment terms which are comparable to those of the Comparable CBs.

• Enhancement in NAV per Share

The unaudited pro forma NAV per Share upon completion of the Acquisition is approximately HK$0.1668, approximately 5.5% higher than the NAV per Share of the Group of approximately HK$0.1581 as at 31 March 2021.

— 53 —

LETTER FROM RAINBOW CAPITAL

• Decrease in Independent Shareholders’ percentage shareholding

Independent Shareholders’ holdings would be diluted upon Completion from approximately 40.24% to approximately 33.68%. We consider that a considerable degree of dilution was inevitable once it was decided to finance the Acquisition mainly by equity unless a rights issue was made which had longer timetable and greater execution risk. The dilution is an unattractive feature in itself, but in our view should be viewed in the context of the Acquisition as a whole, which we consider fair on the grounds summarised above.

Based on the above, we consider that the Equity Sale and Purchase Agreement is on normal commercial terms which are fair and reasonable so far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned. We also consider that the entering into of the Equity Sale and Purchase Agreement, while not in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group, is nevertheless in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. We therefore advise the Independent Board Committee to recommend, and ourselves recommend, the Independent Shareholders to vote in favour of the ordinary resolution to be proposed at the SGM to approve the Equity Sale and Purchase Agreement.

Yours faithfully, For and on behalf of Rainbow Capital (HK) Limited Larry Choi Managing Director

The Group is working towards attaining a sustainable growth whilst continuously exploring and diversifying other suitable investment opportunities (if any) to enhance the overall earning potential, and ultimately maximising the shareholder value.

Through acquiring the Target Group, the Group would be able to participate in the development of the Dongguan Land and commence the engagement of property development business in the PRC.

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET COMPANY

II. NOTES TO THE HISTORICAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION

1. Corporate information

The Target Company was incorporated in the People’s Republic of China (the “ PRC ”) as a limited liability company on 6 January 2020. Its registered office and its principal place of business is located at Room 101, no. 842, Zhenxing Avenue, Xiegang Town, Dongguan City, Guangdong Province, the PRC. The principal activity of the Target Company is property development in the PRC.

2. Basis of preparation and presentation

The Historical Financial Information has been prepared in accordance with accounting policies set out in Note 4 below which conform with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (“ HKFRSs ”), Hong Kong Accounting Standards (“ HKASs ”) and interpretations (hereinafter collectively referred to as the “ HKFRS ”) issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“ HKICPA ”). The Historical Financial Information also complies with the applicable disclosure provisions of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “ Listing Rules ”).

The Historical Financial Information has been prepared under the historical cost basis. The measurement bases are fully described in the accounting policies below in Note 4. All HKFRSs effective for accounting period commencing from 1 April 2020 together with the relevant transitional provisions have been adopted by the Target Company in the preparation of the Historical Financial Information throughout the Relevant Periods.

The preparation of Historical Financial Information in conformity with HKFRSs requires the use of certain critical accounting assumptions and estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Target Company’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the Historical Financial Information are disclosed in Note 5.

3. Impact of issued but not yet effective HKFRSs

The following new/revised HKFRS, potentially relevant to the Historical Financial Information, has been issued, but not yet effective and has not been early adopted by the Target Company. The Target Company’s current intention is to apply this change on the date it become effective.

Amendments to HKAS 1 Disclosure of Accounting Policies[3] Amendments to HKAS 1 Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current[3] Amendments to HKAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment — Proceeds before Intended Use[1] Hong Kong Interpretation 5 Presentation of Financial Statements — Classification by the Borrower (2020) of a Term Loan that Contains a Repayment on Demand Clause[3] Amendments to HKAS 8 Definition of Accounting Estimates[3] Amendments to HKAS 12 Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction[3] Amendments to HKAS 37 Onerous Contracts — Cost of Fulfilling a Contract[1] Amendments to HKFRS 3 Reference to the Conceptual Framework[2] Amendments to HKFRS 10 Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or and HKAS 28 Joint Venture[5] Annual Improvements to Annual Improvements to HKFRSs 2018-2020[1] HKFRSs

2 Effective for business combinations for which the date of acquisition is on or after the beginning of the first annual period on or after 1 January 2022

  • 3 Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023

  • 4 Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 April 2021

  • 5 The amendments shall be applied prospectively to the sale or contribution of assets occurring in annual periods beginning on or after a date to be determined

The Target Company has already commenced an assessment of the potential impact of the new/revised standards but is not yet in a position to state whether these new/revised standards would have a significant impact on the Target Company’s result of operations and financial position.

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET COMPANY

4. Summary of significant accounting policies

a) Leasing

The Target Company has applied HKFRS 16 in recognising all the lease contracts or part of a contract that conveys the right to use an asset (the underlying asset) for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

Under HKFRS 16, all leases (irrespective of they are operating leases or finance leases) are required to be capitalised in the statement of financial position as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, but accounting policy choices exist for an entity to choose not to capitalise (i) leases which are short-term leases and/or (ii) leases for which the underlying asset is of low-value. The Target Company has elected not to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for low-value assets and leases for which at the commencement date have a lease term less than 12 months. The lease payments associated with those leases have been expensed on straight-line basis over the lease term.

Right-of-use asset

The right-of-use asset should be recognised at cost and would comprise: (i) the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability (see below for the accounting policy to account for lease liability); (ii) any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, less any lease incentives received; (iii) any initial direct costs incurred by the lessee; and (iv) an estimate of costs to be incurred by the lessee in dismantling and removing the underlying asset to the condition required by the terms and conditions of the lease, unless those costs are incurred to produce inventories.

Lease liability

The lease liability is recognised at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the date of commencement of the lease. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Target Company uses its incremental borrowing rate.

The following payments for the right-to-use the underlying asset during the lease term that are not paid at the commencement date of the lease are considered to be lease payments: (i) fixed payments less any lease incentives receivable; (ii) variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at commencement date; (iii) amounts expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees; (iv) the exercise price of a purchase option if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that option; and (v) payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the lessee exercising an option to terminate the lease.

Subsequent to the commencement date, the Target Company measures the lease liability by: (i) increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability; (ii) reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made; and iii) remeasuring the carrying amount to reflect any reassessment or lease modifications, e.g., a change in future lease payments arising from change in an index or rate, a change in the lease term, a change in the in substance fixed lease payments or a change in assessment to purchase the underlying asset.

b)

Financial instruments

(i) Financial assets

A financial asset (unless it is a trade receivable without a significant financing component) is initially measured at fair value plus, for an item not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to its acquisition or issue. A trade receivable without a significant financing component is initially measured at the transaction price.

— II-9 —

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET COMPANY

APPENDIX II

All regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on the trade date, that is, the date that the Target Company commits to purchase or sell the asset. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the period generally established by regulation or convention in the market place.

Financial assets with embedded derivatives are considered in their entirely when determining whether their cash flows are solely payment of principal and interest.

Debt instruments

Subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on the Target Company’s Land’s business model for managing the asset and the cash flow characteristics of the asset. The Target Company classifies its debt instruments as follows:

Amortised cost: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortised cost. Financial assets at amortised cost are subsequently measured using the effective interest rate method. Interest income, foreign exchange gains and losses and impairment are recognised in profit or loss. Any gain on derecognition is recognised in profit or loss.

(ii)

Impairment loss on financial assets

The Target Company recognises loss allowances for expected credit loss (“ ECL ”) on financial assets which are subject to impairment under HKFRS 9 (including deposits, other receivables and cash and cash equivalents). The ECLs are measured on either of the following bases: (1) 12 months ECLs: these are the ECLs that result from possible default events within the 12 months after the reporting date: and (2) lifetime ECLs: these are ECLs that result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument. The maximum period considered when estimating ECLs is the maximum contractual period over which the Target Company is exposed to credit risk.

ECLs are a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses. Credit losses are measured as the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to the Target Company in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Target Company expects to receive. The shortfall is then discounted at an approximation to the assets’ original effective interest rate.

For debt financial assets, the ECLs are based on the 12-months ECLs. However, when there has been a significant increase in credit risk since origination, the allowance will be based on the lifetime ECLs.

When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition and when estimating ECL, the Target Company considers reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and available without undue cost or effort. This includes both quantitative and qualitative information analysis, based on the Target Company’s historical experience and informed credit assessment and including forward-looking information.

The Target Company assumes that the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly if it is more than 30 days past due.

The Target Company considers a financial asset to be credit-impaired when: (1) the borrower is unlikely to pay its credit obligations to the Target Company in full, without recourse by the Target Company to actions such as realising security (if any is held); or (2) the financial asset is more than 90 days past due.

— II-10 —

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET COMPANY

APPENDIX II

Interest income on credit-impaired financial assets is calculated based on the amortised cost (i.e. the gross carrying amount less loss allowance) of the financial asset. For non credit-impaired financial assets interest income is calculated based on the gross carrying amount.

(iii) Write-off policy

The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off (either partially or in full) to the extent that there is no realistic prospect of recovery. This is generally the case when the sole director of the Target Company determines that the debtor does not have assets or sources of income that could generate sufficient cash flows to repay the amounts subject to the write-off.

(iv) Financial liabilities

The Target Company classifies its financial liabilities, depending on the purpose for which the liabilities were incurred. Financial liabilities at amortised costs are initially measured at fair value, net of directly attributable costs incurred.

Financial liabilities at amortised cost

Financial liabilities at amortised cost including accounts payable, accruals and other payables, amount due to the immediate holding company, amounts due to non-controlling shareholders, bank borrowings and lease liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest method. The related interest expense is recognised in profit or loss.

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

(v) Effective interest method

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

(vi) Derecognition

The Target Company derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the future cash flows in relation to the financial asset expire or when the financial asset has been transferred and the transfer meets the criteria for derecognition in accordance with HKFRS 9.

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the obligation specified in the relevant contract is discharged, cancelled or expires.

Where the Target Company issues its own equity instruments to a creditor to settle a financial liability in whole or in part as a result of renegotiating the terms of that liability, the equity instruments issued are the consideration paid and are recognised initially and measured at their fair value on the date the financial liability or part thereof is extinguished. If the fair value of the equity instruments issued cannot be reliably measured, the equity instruments are measured to reflect the fair value of the financial liability extinguished. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability or part thereof extinguished and the consideration paid is recognised in profit or loss for the year.

— II-11 —

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET COMPANY

c) Impairment of non-financial assets

At the end of each reporting periods, the Target Company reviews the carrying amounts of property, plant and equipment to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss or an impairment loss previously recognised no longer exists or may have decreased.

If the recoverable amount (i.e. the greater of the fair value less costs of disposal and value in use) of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised as an expense immediately, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount under another HKFRS, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease under that HKFRS.

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, to the extent 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 in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised as income immediately.

Value in use is based on the estimated future cash flows expected to be derived from the asset, 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 or cash generating unit.

d) Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

The cost of property, plant and equipment includes its purchase price and the costs directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Target Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance costs are recognised as an expense in profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.

Property, plant and equipment are depreciated so as to write off their cost net of expected residual value over their estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis. The useful lives, residual value and depreciation method are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. The useful lives are as follows:

Furniture, fixtures and equipment 3 years Leasehold improvements Over the shorter of the lease term and its useful life Right-of-use assets Over lease term of 2 years

An asset is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if its carrying amount is higher than the asset’s estimated recoverable amount.

The gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is the difference between the net sale proceeds and its carrying amount, and is recognised in profit or loss on disposal.

e) Properties under development

The cost of properties under development for sale comprises specifically identified cost, including the acquisition cost of land, aggregate cost of development, materials and supplies, wages and other direct expenses, an appropriate proportion of overheads and borrowing costs capitalised. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price less estimated costs of completion and costs to be incurred in selling the property. In accordance with HKAS 23 Borrowing Costs, the borrowing costs as part of the cost of a qualifying asset commences when expenditure for the asset

— II-12 —

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET COMPANY

is being incurred, borrowing costs are being incurred and activities that are necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use or sale are in progress. Capitalisation of borrowing costs is suspended or ceases when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the qualifying asset for its intended use or sale are interrupted or complete.

f) Cash and cash equivalents

For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and demand deposits, and short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known amount of cash, and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, and have a short maturity of generally within three months when acquired, less bank overdrafts which are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Target Company’s cash management.

g)

Revenue recognition

Revenue arising from the sale of properties

Revenue arising from the sale of properties developed for sale in the ordinary course of business is recognised when legal assignment is completed, which is the point in time when the customer has the ability to direct the use of the property and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits of the property.

Deposits and instalments received on properties sold prior to the date of revenue recognition are included in the statement of financial position under contract liabilities. When the advance payments are regarded as providing a significant financing benefit to the Target Company, interest expense arising from the adjustment of time value of money will be accrued by the Target Company during the period between the payment date and the completion date of legal assignment. This accrual increases the balance of the contract liability during the period of construction, and therefore increases the amount of revenue recognised when control of the completed property is transferred to the customer. The interest is expensed as accrued unless it is eligible to be capitalised under HKAS 23 (see Note 4(h)).

Interest income

Interest income is accrued on a time basis on the principal outstanding at the applicable interest rate.

Contract assets and liabilities

A contract asset represents the Target Company’s right to consideration in exchange for services that the Target Company has transferred to a customer that is not yet unconditional. In contrast, a receivable represents the Target Company’s unconditional right to consideration, i.e. only the passage of time is required before payment of that consideration is due.

A contract liability represents the Target Company’s obligation to transfer services to a customer for which the Target Company has received consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer.

Contract Costs

Contract costs are either the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer or the costs to fulfil a contract with a customer which are not capitalised as inventories, property and plant and equipment or intangible assets.

Incremental costs of obtaining a contract are those costs that the Target Company incurs to obtain a contract with a customer that it would not have incurred if the contract had not been obtained e.g. an incremental sales commission. Incremental costs of obtaining a contract are capitalised when incurred if the costs relate to revenue which will be recognised in a future reporting period and the costs are expected to be recovered. Other costs of obtaining a contract are expensed when incurred.

— II-13 —

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET COMPANY

h) Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs attributable directly to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets which require a substantial period of time to be ready for their intended use or sale, are capitalised as part of the cost of those assets. Income earned on temporary investments of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on those assets is deducted from borrowing costs capitalised. All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

i) Income taxes

Income taxes comprise current tax and deferred tax.

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

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

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

j) Foreign currency

Transactions entered into by the Target Company in currencies other than the functional currency, which is the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates, are recorded at the rates ruling when the transactions occur. Foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the rates ruling at the end of each reporting period. 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 translation of monetary items, are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

k) Employee benefits

  • (i) Short term employee benefits

Short term employee benefits are employee benefits (other than termination benefits) that are expected to be settled wholly before twelve months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees render the related service. Short term employee benefits are recognised in the year when the employees render the related service.

(ii) Retirement benefit cost

The employees of the Target Company are required to participate in a government-managed retirement benefit schemes. The Target Company is required to contribute a fixed cost per employee to the government-managed retirement benefit schemes. The contributions are charged to profit or loss as they become payable.

— II-14 —

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET COMPANY

l) Provisions and contingent liabilities

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

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

m) Related party

  • (a) A person or a close member of that person’s family is related to the Target Company if that person:

  • (i) has control or joint control over the Target Company;

  • (ii) has significant influence over the Target Company; or

5. Critical accounting judgement and estimates

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

The Target Company makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below:

(a) Net realisable value of properties under development

Included in the statements of financial position at 31 March 2021 and 2020, properties under development were with an aggregate carrying amount of RMB643,220,934 and RMB532,209,146 respectively. Management assessed the recoverability of the amount based on an estimation of the net realisable value of the underlying properties which involves, inter-alia, considerable analysis of current market price of properties of a comparable standard and location, construction costs to be incurred to complete the development based on existing asset structure and a forecast of future sales based on zero growth rate of property price. If the actual net realisable values of the underlying inventories of properties are more or less than expected as a result of change in market condition and/or significant variation in the budgeted development costs, material reversal of or provision for impairment losses may result.

6. Operating segment information

The Target Company has identified its operating segment based on the regular internal financial information reported to the chief decision makers about allocation of resources to assess the performance of the Target Company’s business.

The principal activity of the Target Company is engaged in property development in the PRC. The sole director considers that this is the only component for internal reporting to the chief decision makers and, accordingly, the only one operating segment under the requirements of HKFRS 8 “Operating Segments”.

All the segment assets and liabilities are located in the PRC.

During the Relevant Periods, there is no customer contributed 10% or more to the Target Company’s revenue.

Guarantees granted to financial institutions on behalf of
purchasers of property units 115,639,676

The Target Company arranges with various domestic banks in the PRC to provide loan and mortgage facilities to purchasers of its properties prior to the transfer of land title deeds. In line with the consumer banking practices in the PRC, these banks require the Target Company to provide guarantees in respect of these loans including the principal, interest and other incidental costs. If a purchaser defaults on a loan, the relevant mortgagee bank is entitled to deduct the amount repayable from the restricted cash account. These guarantees provided by the Target Company to the banks would be released by the banks upon the receipt of the building ownership certificate of the respective properties by the banks from the customers when it is issued by the relevant authorities.

The management consider that it is not probable of the Target Company to sustain a loss under these guarantees as during the period of these guarantees, the Target Company can take over the ownerships of the related properties under default and sell the properties to recover the amounts paid by the Target Company to the banks. The Target Company has not recognised these guarantees. The management also consider that the market value of the underlying properties is able to cover the outstanding mortgage loans guaranteed by the Target Company in event that the purchasers default payments to banks for their mortgage loans.

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE TARGET COMPANY

Financial risk management objectives and policies

The main risks arising from the Target Company’s financial instruments in the normal course of the Target Company’s business are credit risk and liquidity risk.

These risks are limited by the Target Company’s financial management policies and practices described below.

(a) Credit risk

The Target Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk is the carrying amounts of cash and bank balances, deposits and other receivables. The Target Company has no concentration of credit risk from third party debtors.

As at 31 March 2020 and 2021, substantially all of the Target Company’s bank deposits were deposited with major financial institutions in the PRC, which management believes are of high-credit-quality without significant credit risk.

For the deposits and other receivables, the management of the Target Company takes into account the historical default experience and forward-looking information, as appropriate, for example the Target Company considers the consistently low historical default rates of counterparties, and concludes that credit risk inherent in the Target Company’s outstanding deposits and other receivables is insignificant. The management of the Target Company has assessed that deposits and other receivables do not have a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition and risk of default is insignificant, therefore the ECLs for these deposits and other receivables were immaterial under the 12 months expected losses method and no loss allowance provision was recognised during the Relevant Periods.

(b) Liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity risk management includes maintaining sufficient cash and the ability to settle the payables of the Target Company. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying businesses, the sole director of the Target Company aim to maintain flexibility in funding by keeping sufficient working capital.

Management monitors rolling forecasts of the Target Company’s liquidity reserve which comprise cash and bank balances on the basis of expected cash flow. The Target Company aims to maintain flexibility in funding while minimising its overall costs by keeping sufficient working capital.

The following table details the remaining contractual maturity for the Target Company’s financial liabilities based on the agreed repayment terms. The table has been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Target Company can be required to pay. The table includes both interest and principal cash flows.

(c) Capital management

The Target Company’s primary objective when managing capital is to safeguard the Target Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to maximise the return to stakeholders. The Target Company’s capital structure is regularly reviewed and managed by the sole director of the Target Company. The Target Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements. To maintain or adjust capital structure, the Target Company may adjust dividend payment to shareholders or issue new shares. Adjustments will be made to the capital structure in light of changes in economic conditions affecting the Target Company, and the risk characteristics of the Target Company’s underlying assets.

The capital structure of the Target Company consists of debts, which includes accounts payable, accruals and other payables, amount due to the immediate holding company, amounts due to non-controlling shareholders, bank borrowings and lease liabilities and equity attributable to owners of the Target Company, comprising paid-in capital, capital reserve and accumulated losses. The Target Company’s risk management reviews the capital structure on a semi-annual basis. As part of this review, the management considers the cost of capital and the risks associated with each class of capital.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

APPENDIX III

Notes:

  1. The amounts are extracted from the consolidated statement of financial position of the Group as at 31 March 2021, consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended 31 March 2021 as set out in the published annual report of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2021.

  2. The assets, liabilities and results of the Target Company were consolidated into the consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ended 31 March 2021 as the Target Company became a non wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company since July 2020.

  3. On 31 July 2021, the Company entered into the Equity Sale and Purchase Agreement with Shenzhen Yaoling, a non-controlling owner of the Target Company, to acquire 55% equity interest in the Target Company at a consideration consisting of:

  4. 1) cash of RMB40,000,000;

  5. 2) issue and allotment of 450,000,000 Consideration Shares; and

  6. 3) the issue of Convertible Bonds in the principal amount of HK$27,120,000.

According to the Group’s accounting policies and Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standard 10 Consolidated Financial Statements, the acquisition of the additional 55% equity interest in the Target Company will be accounted for as an equity transaction. The carrying amount of the non-controlling interest is adjusted to reflect the change in the non-controlling interest’s ownership interest in the Target Company. The difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests is adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognised directly in equity and attributed to owners of the Company. The difference arising from the Proposed Acquisition is calculated as follows:

  • (i) For the purpose of this Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information, the fair value of the Consideration Shares is calculated based on the price of HK$0.138 per share of the Company. 450,000,000 Consideration Shares of the Company will be issued at HK$0.138 quoted on the Stock Exchange as at 31 March 2021 with a total share consideration of approximately HK$62,100,000.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

APPENDIX III

The issue of 450,000,000 Consideration Shares with par value of HK$0.05 will result in the increase in share capital of HK$22,500,000 and share premium (included in the reserves) of HK$39,600,000.

  • (ii) For the purpose of preparing the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information, the Group has engaged an independent professional valuer to perform a valuation on the fair value of the Convertible Bonds and the valuation date is 31 March 2021. Based on the valuation report, the fair value of the liability component of Convertible Bonds was calculated by discounting the future cash flows at the effective interest rate of 7.7%. The fair value of HK$18,454,000 is credited under non-current liabilities since the maturity date of the Convertible Bonds will be made on the date falling on the fifth anniversary of the issue date of the Circular. The fair value of the equity component representing the conversion rights of the Convertible Bonds is calculated by binomial option pricing model. The fair value of HK$10,803,000 is credited in convertible bonds reserve. The issue of the Convertible Bonds is a non-cash transaction.

  • (iii) It represents the difference between the carrying amount of 55% equity interest in the Target Company of HK$162,433,240 and the fair value of the Consideration of HK$138,684,197. The difference of HK$23,749,043 is credited in other reserve.

  • Assuming the Proposed Acquisition had been completed on 1 April 2020 for the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of cash flows, the adjustment reflects the cash outflows in respect of the Proposed Acquisition of HK$47,327,197.

  • Assuming the Proposed Acquisition had been completed on 1 April 2020 for unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the adjustment reflects the increase in loss and total comprehensive income for the year ended 31 March 2021.

During the year ended 31 March 2021, the Target Company recorded a loss of HK$10,975,983 and total comprehensive income of HK$47,005,068. The loss and total comprehensive income for the year ended 31 March 2021 attributable to the owners of the Company are increased by HK$6,036,791 and HK$25,852,787 respectively as if the Proposed Acquisition had been taken place on 1 April 2020.

  1. The adjustment represents the transaction costs incurred in relation to the Proposed Acquisition including professional fees. As the Proposed Acquisition is a transaction with non-controlling interest that do not result in a change a control, the corresponding transaction costs incurred are deducted from equity.

  2. The adjustment represents the interest on the Convertible Bonds as if the Proposed Acquisition had been taken place on 1 April 2020. This adjustment has a continuing effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Enlarged Group in subsequent years.

  3. No adjustments have been made to reflect any trading results of or other transactions entered into by the Group subsequent to 31 March 2021.

  4. Except noted in note 7, the above adjustments are not expected to have continuing effects on the Enlarged Group’s consolidated statement of financial position, consolidated statement of comprehensive income and the consolidated statement of cash flows.

  5. The fair value of the Consideration Shares and of the Convertible Bonds arising from the Proposed Acquisition at the Completion Date may be different from that presented above and the difference may be significant.

By comparing this year’s net loss and last year’s Adjusted Net Loss, it represented a significant decrease of approximately HK$46.6 million or 75.7%. This improvement of the financial performance was primarily resulted from (1) completion of disposal of loss-making subsidiaries in March 2018, (2) reversal of provision for financial guarantee and (3) collective efforts by the management in a series of cost cutting measures.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE GROUP

APPENDIX V

Outlook

China continued to advance its industrialisation and urbanisation, and deepen the supply-side reform. As the recurrent intensification of the Sino-US trade war may become a normalised phenomenon and exports to the United States may continue to weaken, economic development will be under pressure. However, driven by “The Belt and Road Initiative” and other favorable policies, domestic demand promotion, economic development structure adjustment and other measures to promote high quality economic development will remain as the dominant trend. Therefore, the Directors expect the business environment to remain challenging, but are cautiously optimistic towards the overall outlook of the Group.

The management team and Board of Directors are highly experienced in the real estate development industry in China and possess significant resources and networks in China which the Company expects to be able to leverage for its future development in the property sub-leasing, development and investment business sector. The Group has continued the efforts to consolidate and realign its businesses to enable the Group to achieve improvements in its financial position.

The Group is working towards attaining a sustainable growth, and at the same time the Group is also continuously exploring and identifying other suitable investment opportunities (if any) to enhance its earning potential so as to enhance shareholder value as a whole.

Currency risk

The Group mainly operates in Hong Kong and the PRC with most of the transactions settled in their respective functional currencies in which the group entities operate. Therefore the Group does not have significant exposure to risk resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE GROUP

APPENDIX V

The Group arranges with various domestic banks in the PRC to provide loan and mortgage facilities to purchasers of its properties prior to the transfer of land title deeds. In line with the consumer banking practices in the PRC, these banks require the Group to provide guarantees in respect of these loans including the principal, interest and other incidental costs. If a purchaser defaults on a loan, the relevant mortgagee bank is entitled to deduct the amount repayable from the restricted cash account. These guarantees provided by the Group to the banks would be released by the banks upon the receipt of the building ownership certificate of the respective properties by the banks from the customers when it is issued by the relevant authorities.

The Directors consider that it is not probable of the Group to sustain a loss under these guarantees as during the period of these guarantees, the Group can take over the ownerships of the related properties under default and sell the properties to recover the amounts paid by the Group to the banks. The Group has not recognised these guarantees. The Directors also consider that the market value of the underlying properties is able to cover the outstanding mortgage loans guaranteed by the Group in event that the purchasers default payments to banks for their mortgage loans.
