Management Discussion and Analysis

OVERVIEW

Jujiang Construction Group Co., Ltd. (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (collectively the "Group") were established in 1965 as one of the earliest construction companies in Jiaxing, a city currently with a population of more than 4.5 million and strong commercial and light industrial activities. With more than 50 years of experience in the construction industry, the Group has built a successful track record in the industry in which the Group operates.

The Group successfully obtained the Premium Class Certificate for General Building Construction Contracting Work ("Premium Class Certificate") and the Grade A Engineering Design (Construction Industry) Certificate ("Engineering Design Certificate") on 28 January 2015 after undergoing a stringent review process. The Premium Class Certificate is the highest qualification awarded to building construction general contractors who can satisfy the high standards in relation to project management experience, technological innovation and scale of operations. The Engineering Design Certificate is awarded to those that meet high standards in relation to personnel qualifications, management capabilities and internal control. As the holder of two key certificates as well as the holder of other certificates, the Group is able to provide fully integrated construction solutions, which consist of construction contracting and design, survey and consultancy services for building construction projects of all types and scales nationwide.

MARKET REVIEW

Under ever-mounting downward pressure on the economy since 2019, the Gross Domestic Product ("GDP") posted a year-on-year increase of 6.1% for the year. Entering into 2020, against the backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic and the downward pressure on the economy, GDP fell by 6.8% and increased by 3.2% respectively in the first and second quarter. The construction industry was also partly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, the State and the local governments, however, have introduced policies of safeguard measures with respect to finance, fiscal taxation and other areas after the COVID-19 pandemic subsided. The development of the Chinese economy is in dire need of a boost in domestic demand and an increase in investment, from which the construction industry will benefit.

In the first half of 2020, the real estate market in general showed a steadily declining trend. According to the statistics of the National Bureau of Statistics, for the six months ended 30 June 2020, i) total housing construction area in China was approximately 11,205.65 million square meters ("sq.m.") (30 June 2019: approximately 10,749.59 million sq.m.), representing an increase of approximately 4.2% from the corresponding period of 2019; ii) total newly commenced construction area in China was approximately 2,226.16 million sq.m. (30 June 2019: approximately 2,351.89 million sq.m.), representing a decrease of approximately 5.3% from the corresponding period of 2019; and iii) total contract amount of PRC construction enterprises was approximately RMB39,087.5 billion (30 June 2019: approximately RMB36,397.8 billion), representing an increase of approximately 7.4% from the corresponding period of 2019. Moreover, the total value of the PRC construction industry was approximately RMB10,084.0 billion for the six months ended 30 June 2020, (30 June 2019: approximately RMB10,161.6 billion), which remained stable as compared with the corresponding period of 2019.

Management Discussion and Analysis

As the economy undergoes a smooth transition to a medium-to-lowgrowth stage, the growth of the construction industry may slow down in the long term. The industry itself, however, will continue to play a crucial role in the national economy. Whenever there is a huge downward pressure on the economy, the State will generally increase investments in the construction industry in order for it to sustain economic growth. This was especially the case after the COVID-19pandemic, as more "Growth Stabilizing" policies(「穩增長」政策) were implemented. In January 2020, No.1 Document entitled "Opinions of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council on Making the Key Work in Agriculture, Rural Areas and Farmers a Success to Ensure the Realization of Moderate Prosperity in All Respects(" 《中共中央國務院關於抓好「三農」領域 重點工作確保如期實現全面小康的意見》)of the central government further proposed to enhance the construction of modern agricultural infrastructure facilities, seize opportunities to initiate and commence construction of a series of major water conservancy and auxiliary facilities. In February and March 2020, the Standing Committee of the Central Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, the Standing Committee of the State Council and others convened four meetings to stress the importance of accelerating the progress of constructing 5G base stations, the Industrial Internet and other new types of infrastructural facilities, the introduction of which will push the construction industry to upgrade to a more efficient mode of development and create new momentum for the growth of the economy. On 5 May 2020, addressing the Third Session of the Thirteenth National People's Congress, Li Keqiang, Premier of the State Council, proposed on behalf of the State Council in his 2020 Government Work Report to give priority to the construction of "new infrastructure, new urbanisation initiatives and major projects". "New infrastructure, new urbanisation initiatives" refers to the construction of new types of infrastructure facilities and urbanisation facilities, while "major projects" refers to transportation, water conservancy and other major projects. If enterprises can take the advantage of the construction of "new infrastructure, new urbanization initiatives and major projects", actively transform and upgrade, and grasp the opportunities to undertake new infrastructure construction and new urbanisation projects, we shall then expect promising development in the country.

BUSINESS REVIEW

Looking back into the first half of 2020, the Group has also encountered challenges as the industry was severely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. In such exceptional times, the Group has forged ahead united, surmounted the unprecedented difficulties and demonstrated great capabilities to counteract risks. The Group's revenue and net profit for the six months ended 30 June 2020 were approximately RMB3,737.7 million and approximately RMB57.4 million respectively, representing an increase of approximately 9.9% and a decrease of approximately 15.9% respectively from the corresponding period of the previous year. The value of backlog increased by approximately 22.8% to approximately RMB15,354.4 million as at 30 June 2020 as compared to that of approximately RMB12,506.4 million as at 30 June 2019.

Making the principal business prominent

In the first half of 2020, in response to the challenges brought by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Group maintained steady development of its businesses through market expansions and the undertaking of large-scale projects by leveraging the strength of its brand, management and talents. A net contract value of the newly signed-up projects of approximately RMB4.63 billion was achieved. As travelling to other regions was banned in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Group, focused mainly on the consolidation of its market share in Jiaxing city in the first half of the year. The contract value of the newly signed-up projects in Jiaxing city reached RMB2.37 billion, which accounted for approximately 51.1% of the total contract value and represented a significant increase of approximately 140.9% over the corresponding period.

Affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, operations of all industries became increasingly difficult amidst downward pressure on the economy. Upon undertaking large-scale projects, the Group adopted the quality-over-quantity approach to ensure development in a difficult environment. For the six months ended 30 June 2020, the Group has entered into quality project businesses with contract value over RMB100 million mainly with a number of top real estate companies and quality customers, which amounted to nearly RMB3.39 billion in contract value and accounted for approximately 73.2% of the total contract value. Newly signed-up residential and commercial housing projects amounted to approximately RMB3.47 billion for the period, accounting for approximately 74.9% of the total contract value; industrial projects amounted to approximately RMB0.88 billion, accounting for approximately 19.0% of the total contract value; and public facility construction projects amounted to approximately RMB0.28 billion, accounting for approximately 6.1% of the total contract value.

Excelling in professionalism

In addition to making the principal business prominent in the first half of 2020, the Group also stepped up the resources committed to the development of its professional capabilities, expanded its businesses in various specialized sectors such as decorative foundations, municipal services and fire safety. Meanwhile, the Group was further extending to the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain to enhance complementary advantages between various specialized sectors and the principal business so as to promote diversity across projects and income to each business segment. During the first half of 2020, business growth in various specialized sectors was boosted by the contracting of engineering, procurement and construction. In particular, the business of decorative foundation companies amounted to approximately RMB210 million, new contracts signed up with municipal companies amounted to approximately RMB185 million, and the fire safety sector amounted to approximately RMB109 million.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Revenue and gross profit margin

Revenue increased by approximately 9.9% from approximately RMB3,401.9 million for the six months ended 30 June 2019 to approximately RMB3,737.7 million for the six months ended 30 June 2020, primarily because of an increase in the construction contracting business amounting to approximately RMB351.7 million, which was offset by a decrease in other business amounting to approximately RMB15.9 million for the six months ended 30 June 2020. Increase in construction contracting business was primarily due to an increase in revenue from residential construction contracting business amounting to approximately RMB418.3 million, which was partially offset by a decrease in revenue from commercial construction contracting business of approximately RMB129.1 million. Increase in revenue from residential construction contracting business for the six months ended 30 June 2020 was a result of benefits of the development of property market in the PRC, the Group co-operated with mega property developers and developers outside Jiaxing City which stimulated our revenue. However, with the uncertain economy in the PRC, commercial activities were cooled down. As a result, the revenue from commercial construction contracting business for the six months ended 30 June 2020 was decreased.

Gross profit increased by approximately 4.6% from approximately RMB183.4 million for the six months ended 30 June 2019 to approximately RMB191.8 million for the six months ended 30 June 2020, which was in line with increase in revenue. However, the gross profit margin decreased from approximately 5.39% for the six months ended 30 June 2019 to approximately 5.13% for the six months ended 30 June 2020, such decrease was mainly due to the decrease in gross

Management Discussion and Analysis

profits margins of the other business. The gross profit margin of the construction contracting business was at approximately 5.04% and 5.08% for the six months ended 30 June 2020 and 2019, respectively. The gross profit margins of the other business decreased from approximately 28.9% for the six months ended 30 June 2019 to approximately 16.7% for the six months ended 30 June 2020, such decrease was primarily attributable to the service business being affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Other income and gains

Other income and gains increased by approximately RMB3.2 million from approximately RMB0.5 million for the six months ended 30 June 2019 to approximately RMB3.7 million for the six months ended 30 June 2020 primarily because of an increase in government grant income of approximately RMB2.8 million for the six months ended 30 June 2020.

Administrative expenses

The administrative expenses increased by approximately 25.2% from approximately RMB45.3 million for the six months ended 30 June 2019 to approximately RMB56.7 million for the six months ended 30 June 2020 which was primarily due to an increase in salaries and employee benefits of approximately RMB9.5 million as the Group has recruited a total of 112 new employees, including senior technology professionals, first class constructors and second class constructors, to meet its fast growing business and an incremental in salaries.

Impairment losses on financial and contract assets, net

Impairment losses on financial and contract assets, net, including trade receivables and other receivables, increased significantly by approximately 56.3% from approximately RMB8.7 million for the six months ended 30 June 2019 to approximately RMB13.6 million for the six months ended 30 June 2020, primarily due to the worsened economic environment. The impairments of trade receivables and other receivables increased from approximately RMB7.0 million and approximately RMB2.0 million, respectively, for the six months ended 30 June 2019 to approximately RMB9.9 million and approximately RMB3.1 million, respectively, for the six months ended 30 June 2020.

Other expenses

Other expenses increased by approximately RMB6.3 million from approximately RMB0.4 million for the six months ended 30 June 2019 to approximately RMB6.7 million for the six months ended 30 June 2020, primarily due to the recognition of a loss on disposal of a subsidiary of the Group amounting to approximately RMB6.4 million for the six months ended 30 June 2020 when no such loss was incurred for the six months ended 30 June 2019. In June 2020, the Company and an independent third party entered into the share transfer agreement, pursuant to which the

Company agreed to sell 100% of the equity interest in the wholly-owned subsidiary, Zhejiang Jujiang Construction Surveying and Design Co., Ltd. (浙江巨匠建築勘察設計有限公司) to the

vendor at a cash consideration of RMB3.0 million which is same as the paid-in share capital of the subsidiary.

Finance costs

Finance costs increased by approximately 19.1% from approximately RMB38.2 million for the six months ended 30 June 2019 to approximately RMB45.5 million for the six months ended 30 June 2020. Such increase was primarily due to customers of the Group increased the use of bills for the settlement, the Group increased its working capital by using factoring which generated the finance costs.

Management Discussion and Analysis

Income tax expense

Income tax expenses decreased by 32.0% from approximately RMB22.9 million for the six months ended 30 June 2019 to approximately RMB15.6 million for the six months ended 30 June 2020 primarily because of a decrease in profits from the operation. The effective tax rate decreased from approximately 25.1% for the six months ended 30 June 2019 to 21.3% for the six months ended 30 June 2020 primarily because the Group reversed a provision of income tax in relation to prior year of RMB4.3 million for the six months ended 30 June 2020.

Profit for the period

Profit for the period decreased by approximately 15.9% from approximately RMB68.3 million for the six months ended 30 June 2019 to approximately RMB57.4 million for the six months ended 30 June 2020. Net profit margin decreased from approximately 2.0% for the six months ended 30 June 2019 to approximately 1.5% for the six months ended 30 June 2020, primarily due to an increase in administrative expenses and a loss on disposal of a subsidiary for the six months ended 30 June 2020.

LIQUIDITY, FINANCIAL RESOURCES AND CAPITAL STRUCTURE

The working capital for the Group's operations primarily comes from the cash generated from operating activities and interest-bearing bank and other borrowings. As at 30 June 2020 and 31 December 2019, the Group had cash and cash equivalents of approximately RMB129.9 million and approximately RMB274.0 million, respectively.

Treasury policies

The Group monitors the cash flows and cash balance on a regular basis and seeks to maintain an optimal level of liquidity that can meet the working capital needs while supporting a healthy level of business and its various growth strategies. In the future, the Group intends to finance its operations through cash generated from operating activities and interest-bearing bank and other borrowings. Other than normal bank borrowings that the Group obtains from commercial banks and potential debt financing plans, the Group does not expect to have any material external debt financing plan in the near future.

Contract assets

The contract assets increased from approximately RMB2,564.1 million as at 31 December 2019 to approximately RMB2,746.4 million as at 30 June 2020, representing 48.7% and 53.7% of the total current assets as at the end of the corresponding period. The proportion of the contract assets to the total current assets was increased due to an increase in the balance of the contract assets. The increase in contract assets was primarily due to the slowed-down billing process brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Trade and bills receivables

Trade and bills receivables decreased by approximately 10.3% from approximately RMB1,774.9 million as at 31 December 2019 to approximately RMB1,592.4 million as at 30 June 2020. Such decrease was due to the slowed down billing process brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic. The trade and bills receivables turnover days decreased from approximately 84 days as at 31 December 2019 to approximately 81 days as at 30 June 2020, which was stable.

Management Discussion and Analysis

Trade and bills payables

Trade and bills payables decreased by approximately 8.2% from approximately RMB2,836.6 million as at 31 December 2019 to approximately RMB2,604.5 million as at 30 June 2020. Such decrease was due to the advanced payment made to secure the materials to be delivered on time after the suspension of the construction works under the COVID-19 pandemic. The trade and bills payables turnover days decreased from approximately 164 days as at 31 December 2019 to approximately 138 days as at 30 June 2020.

Borrowings and charge on assets

As at 30 June 2020, the Group relied on short-term and long-terminterest-bearing borrowings in the aggregated amount of approximately RMB557.7 million (31 December 2019: approximately RMB548.2 million). The short-term interest bearing borrowings amounting to approximately RMB420.9 million (31 December 2019: approximately RMB407.3 million) are repayable within 1 year and carried effective interest rate with a range from 4.05% to 15.0% per annum (31 December 2019: 2.88% to 15.0% per annum).

As at 30 June 2020, certain general banking facilities were secured by the land use rights and buildings and trade receivables of approximately RMB89.8 million and nil, respectively (31 December 2019: approximately RMB91.0 million and RMB30.0 million).

Gearing ratio

The gearing ratio increased from 11.4% as at 31 December 2019 to approximately 24.9% as at 30 June 2020. The increase was mainly attributable to a decrease in cash and cash equivalents and pledged deposits with aggregated amounts of approximately RMB193.8 million.

Gearing ratio represents net debt divided by total equity as at the end of a year/period. Net debt is defined as all borrowings deducted by cash and bank balances and pledged deposits.

Capital expenditure

For the six months ended 30 June 2020, the capital expenditures were approximately RMB15.4 million (six months ended 30 June 2019: approximately RMB6.4 million).

As at 30 June 2020, the Group had a total of 974 employees, of which 615 were based in Jiaxing City, and 359 were based in other areas in Zhejiang Province and in other provinces and regions in China. For the six months ended 30 June 2020, the Group incurred total staff costs of approximately RMB37.1 million, representing an increase of approximately 30.1% as compared with the same period in 2019, mainly attributable to increase in headcount and salary incremental.

The Group believes that the long-term growth depends on the expertise, experience and development of the employees. The salaries and benefits of the employees depend primarily on their type of work, position, length of service with us and local market conditions. In order to improve the employees' skills and technical expertise, the Group provides regular training to the employees.

FUTURE PROSPECTS

As economic activities in China resumes, the impact on the construction industry at the early stage of the COVID-19 pandemic has basically been fully reflected. The Group will take the initiative to respond to challenges, risks and difficulties, transform its development mindset, aim for comprehensive and high-quality development and build itself a solid foundation. At the same time, the Group will actively search for suitable markets and make every effort to promote quality services.

In terms of market development, the Group will expand the market of major customers, promote going out development and undertake business in new areas, as well as extend and expand new or nationwide projects for major customers with whom we have already secured project cooperation or entered into strategic cooperation agreements.

At the same time, the government has introduced a number of policies to increase infrastructure investment. The Group will pay more attention to government platform projects, comprehensively track the key projects in the Jiaxing region to increase its participation in tenders and bolster its market share of public construction projects in the region.

In terms of internal management, the Group will firmly establish the corporate brand philosophy of "winning by speed, quality and safety" as its focus of work.

DIRECTORS' COMPETING INTERESTS

As at 30 June 2020, none of the controlling shareholders, Directors and their respective close associates (as defined under the Listing Rules) has any interests in any business which directly or indirectly competes or is likely to compete with the principal business and other businesses, which would require disclosure under Rule 8.10 of the Listing Rules.

COMPLIANCE WITH THE CORPORATE GOVERNANCE CODE

The Board comprises six executive Directors and three independent non-executive Directors. The Board has adopted the code provisions (the "Code Provisions") of the Corporate Governance Code ("CG Code") set out in Appendix 14 to the Listing Rules. Throughout the six months ended 30 June 2020, the Company has fully complied with the Code Provisions, except for the following deviations.

Pursuant to Code Provision A.2.1 of the CG Code, the responsibilities between the chairman and the chief executive officer should be segregated and should not be performed by the same individual. However, the Group does not have a separate chairman and general manager (which is equivalent to chief executive officer) and Mr. Lyu Yaoneng currently performs these two roles. The Board believes that vesting the roles of both chairman and general manager in the same person has the benefit of ensuring consistent leadership within our Group and enables more effective and efficient overall strategic planning for our Group. Our Board considers that the balance of power and authority for the present arrangement will not be impaired and this structure will enable our Company to make and implement decisions promptly and effectively. Our Board will continue to review and consider splitting the roles of chairman of our Board and general manager of our Company at a time when it is appropriate and suitable by taking into account the circumstances of our Group as a whole.

Save as disclosed above, the Company has complied with the CG Code for the period. Our Directors will review our corporate governance policies and compliance with the CG Code each financial year.

MODEL CODE FOR SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS

The Company has adopted the Model Code as the Company's code of conduct regarding Directors' and supervisors securities transactions. Upon specific enquiries, all Directors and Supervisors have confirmed that they have complied with the relevant provisions of the Model Code throughout the period from 1 January 2020 to 30 June 2020.

To the board of directors of Jujiang Construction Group Co., Ltd. (Established in the People's Republic of China with limited liability)

INTRODUCTION

We have reviewed the interim financial information set out on pages 21 to 50, which comprise the condensed consolidated statement of financial position of Jujiang Construction Group Co., Ltd. (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (together, the "Group") as at 30 June 2020 and the related condensed consolidated statements of profit or loss, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the six-month period then ended, and explanatory notes. The Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited require the preparation of a report on interim financial information to be in compliance with the relevant provisions thereof and International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting ("IAS 34") issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim financial information in accordance with IAS 34. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review. Our report is made solely to you, as a body, in accordance with our agreed terms of engagement, and for no other purpose. We do not assume responsibility towards or accept liability to any other person for the contents of this report.

SCOPE OF REVIEW

We conducted our review in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Review Engagements 2410 Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity , issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

CONCLUSION

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim financial information is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34.

Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Information

30 June 2020

1. BASIS OF PREPARATION

The interim condensed consolidated financial information for the six months ended 30 June 2020 has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. The interim condensed consolidated financial information does not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual consolidated financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the Group's annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019. The interim condensed consolidated financial information is presented in Renminbi ("RMB") and all values are rounded to the nearest thousands, except when otherwise indicated.

This interim condensed consolidated financial information has not been audited.

2. C H A N G E S I N T H E G R O U P ' S A CCO U N T I N G P O L I C I E S A N D DISCLOSURES

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the interim condensed consolidated financial information are consistent with those applied in the preparation of the Group's annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019, except for the adoption of the following revised International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRSs") for the first time for the current period's financial information.

Amendments to IFRS 3

Definition of a Business

Amendments to IFRS 9,

IAS 39 and IFRS 7

Interest Rate Benchmark Reform

Amendment to IFRS 16

Covid-19-Related Rent Concessions (early adopted)

Amendments to IAS 1

and IAS 8

Definition of Material

The nature and impact of the revised IFRSs are described below:

  1. Amendments to IFRS 3 clarify and provide additional guidance on the definition of a business. The amendments clarify that for an integrated set of activities and assets to be considered a business, it must include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create output. A business can exist without including all of the inputs and processes needed to create outputs. The amendments remove the assessment of whether market participants are capable of acquiring the business and continue to produce outputs. Instead, the focus is on whether acquired inputs and acquired substantive processes together significantly contribute to the ability to create outputs. The amendments have also narrowed the definition of outputs to focus on goods or services provided to customers, investment income or other income from ordinary activities. Furthermore, the amendments provide guidance to assess whether an acquired process is substantive and introduce an optional fair value concentration test to permit a simplified assessment of whether an acquired set of activities and assets is not a business. The Group has applied the amendments prospectively to transactions or other events that occurred on or after 1 January 2020. The amendments did not have any impact on the financial position and performance of the Group.

  1. C H A N G E S I N T H E G R O U P ' S A CCO U N T I N G P O L I C I E S A N D DISCLOSURES (Continued)
    1. Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39 and IFRS 7 address the effects of interbank offered rate reform on financial reporting. The amendments provide temporary reliefs which enable hedge accounting to continue during the period of uncertainty before the replacement of an existing interest rate benchmark. In addition, the amendments require companies to provide additional information to investors about their hedging relationships which are directly affected by these uncertainties. The amendments did not have any impact on the financial position and performance of the Group as the Group does not have any interest rate hedge relationships.
    2. Amendment to IFRS 16 provides a practical expedient for lessees to elect not to apply lease modification accounting for rent concessions arising as a direct consequence of the covid-19 pandemic. The practical expedient applies only to rent concessions occurring as a direct consequence of the covid-19 pandemic and only if (i) the change in lease payments results in revised consideration for the lease that is substantially the same as, or less than, the consideration for the lease immediately preceding the change; (ii) any reduction in lease payments affects only payments originally due on or before 30 June 2021; and (iii) there is no substantive change to other terms and conditions of the lease. The amendments did not have any impact on the Group's interim condensed consolidated financial information.
    3. Amendments to IAS 1 and IAS 8 provide a new definition of material. The new definition states that information is material if omitting, misstating or obscuring it could reasonably be expected to influence decisions that the primary users of general purpose financial statements make on the basis of those financial statements. The amendments clarify that materiality will depend on the nature or magnitude of information. The amendments did not have any impact on the Group's interim condensed consolidated financial information.
  2. OPERATING SEGMENT INFORMATION

For management purposes, the Group is organised into business units based on their services and has two reportable operating segments as follows:

  1. Construction contracting - this segment engages in the provision of services relating to construction contracting in architecture;
  2. Others - provision of services on designing, surveying and mapping, monitoring and consulting services in the engineering of municipal management and construction, installation of lifting equipment, sale of construction materials and civil defense products and provision of services relating to construction contracting in architecture.

The Group's revenue from external customers from each operating segment is set out in note 4 to the interim condensed consolidated financial information.

Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Information

30 June 2020

3. OPERATING SEGMENT INFORMATION (Continued)

Management monitors the results of the Group's operating segments separately for the purpose of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment. Segment performance is evaluated based on reportable segment profit or loss, which is a measure of adjusted profit or loss before tax. The adjusted profit or loss before tax is measured consistently with the Group's profit before tax.

Intersegment sales and transfers are transacted with reference to the selling prices used for sales made to third parties at the then prevailing market prices.

10. EARNINGS PER SHARE ATTRIBUTABLE TO ORDINARY EQUITY HOLDERS OF THE PARENT

The calculation of the basic earnings per share amount is based on the profit for the period attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent and the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the period.

No adjustment has been made to the basic earnings per share amounts presented for the six months ended 30 June 2020 and 2019 in respect of a dilution as the Group had no potentially dilutive ordinary shares in issue during those periods.

Trade receivables represented receivables for contract works. The payment terms of contract work receivables are stipulated in relevant contracts. The Group's trading terms with its customers are mainly on credit, except for new customers, where payment in advance is normally required. The credit period offered by the Group is one to three months. The Group seeks to maintain strict control over its outstanding receivables and has a credit control department to minimise credit risk. Overdue balances are reviewed regularly by senior management. The Group has not pledged any trade receivables during the period ended 30 June 2020 (2019: RMB30,000,000) for the Group's bank loans (note 19). Except for the pledged balance, the Group does not hold any other collateral or credit enhancements over its trade receivable balances. Trade and bills receivables are non- interest-bearing.

An ageing analysis of the Group's trade receivables, based on the billing date and net of loss allowance, as at the end of the reporting period is as follows:

The RMB is not freely convertible into other currencies. However, under Mainland China's prevailing rules and regulations over foreign exchange, the Group is permitted to exchange RMB for other currencies through banks authorised to conduct foreign exchange business.

Cash at banks earns interest at floating rates based on daily bank deposit rates. Short term time deposits are made for varying periods of between one day and three months depending on the immediate cash requirements of the Group, and earn interest at the respective short term time deposit rates. The bank balances and pledged deposits are deposited with creditworthy banks with no recent history of default.

Management has assessed that the fair values of cash and bank balances, pledged deposits, trade and bills receivables, trade and bills payables, interest-bearing bank and other borrowings, the current portion of financial assets included in prepayments, other receivables and other assets and other payables and accruals approximate to their carrying amounts largely due to the short term maturities of these instruments.

The Group's finance department headed by the finance manager is responsible for determining the policies and procedures for the fair value measurement of financial instruments. The corporate finance team reports directly to the chief accountant. At each reporting date, the finance team analyses the movements in the values of financial instruments and determines the major inputs applied in the valuation. The valuation is reviewed and approved by the chief accountant. The valuation process and results are discussed with the senior management twice a year for annual financial reporting.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values.

The fair values of the non-current portion of trade and bills receivables, the non-current portion of financial assets included in prepayments, deposits and other receivables and the non-current portion of financial liabilities included in other payables and accruals have been calculated by discounting the expected future cash flows using rates currently available for instruments with similar terms, credit risk and remaining maturities.
