Notes:

1. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE AND BASIS OF PREPARATION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The consolidated results set out in this announcement do not constitute the Group's annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2015 but are extracted from those financial statements.

The basis of preparation and principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with all applicable Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards ("HKFRS"), which collective term includes all applicable individual Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards, Hong Kong Accounting Standards ("HKAS") and Interpretations issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants, accounting principles generally accepted in Hong Kong and the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance. The financial statements also comply with the applicable disclosure provisions of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited.

The consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2015 comprise the Group and the Group's interest in an associate.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost basis except that the derivative financial instruments are stated at their fair values.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with HKFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group's accounting policies.

The Group has adopted the following amendments to HKFRS that are effective for the first time for the Group's financial year beginning 1 January 2015 and are relevant to the Group's operations. The impact on the Group's accounting policies upon adoption is set out below:

HKAS 19 (Amendment), "Employee Benefits: Defined benefit plans: Employee contributions". The amendments introduce a relief to reduce the complexity of accounting for certain contributions from employees or third parties under defined benefit plans. When the contributions are eligible for the practical expedient provided by the amendments, a company is allowed to recognise the contributions as a reduction of the service cost in the period in which the related service is rendered, instead of including them in calculating the defined benefit obligation. The amendments do not have an impact on the financial statements as the defined benefit plans operated/participated by the Group are wholly funded by contributions from the Group and do not involve contribution from employees or third parties.

Annual Improvements to HKFRSs 2010-2012 Cycle and 2011-2013 Cycle. These two cycles of annual improvements contain amendments to other standards. Among them, HKAS 24, "Related party disclosures" has been amended to expand the definition of a "related party" to include a management entity that provides key management personnel services to the reporting entity, and to require the disclosure of the amounts incurred for obtaining the key management personnel services provided by the management entity. These amendments do not have an impact on the Group's related party disclosures as the Group does not obtain key management personnel services from management entities.

The Group has not applied any new standard or interpretation that is not yet effective for the current accounting period.
