CREATING A GREEN ENVIRONMENT

Environmental sustainability is one of the Group's key concerns in its fulfilment of corporate social responsibility. The Group's "Environmental Policy" summarized the requirements on emission management, use of resources and protection of environment and natural resources. The Group intends to minimize the negative impact on environment from its business operation and production p r o c e s s b y a d v o c a t i n g e n v i r o n m e n t a l l y responsible business practices.

EXHAUST GAS EMISSIONS

Exhaust gas generated from our Yuyao Factory and Yuyao Office comprise nitrogen oxides, sulphur oxides and respirable suspended

particulates from emission from fossil fuel combustion by vehicles and kitchen equipment of our canteen . Nitrogen oxides, sulphur oxides and respirable suspended particulates from emission from fossil fuel combustion by our canteen accounted for 85%, 66% and 77% of total air pollutant emissions. Due to the larger size of Yuyao Factory used in 2018/19 as compared to that of the temporary factory used in 2017/18 and the significant increase in production and sales, coupled with the incorporation of consumption of fossil fuel by canteen in the emission calculation in 2018/19, the air pollutant emissions during the Reporting Period increased in a larger extent as compared with 2017/18.

GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS

The Group pays close attention to its own carbon footprint, and dedicated to minimising the impact of its operation on the environment. The Group has commissioned an external p r o f e s s i o n a l c o n s u l t a n t t o a s s e s s o u r greenhouse gas emissions. The quantification process of greenhouse gas was conducted by reference to the guidelines issued by the National Development and Reform Commission of the PRC4, as well as international standards such as ISO14064-1 and the Greenhouse Gas Protocol.

During the Reporting Period, carbon emission generated by our Yuyao Factory and Yuyao Office was approximately 39 tonnes CO2e in total, representing an increase of 7% as compared to that of 2017/18, in which greenhouse gas emission from use of electricity and fuel used by vehicles contributed 50% and 32% of total emission, respectively. During the Reporting Period, the fossil fuel consumed by kitchen equipment of our canteen was changed from liquefied natural gas to liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and the consumption of

LPG grew, together with the slight increase in fuel consumption by vehicles and electricity consumption as compared to that of 2017/18, the greenhouse gas emission was therefore i n c r e a s e d .

Although the emission of greenhouse gases of the Group in 2018/19 increased slightly as compared with 2017/18, the Group's turnover was significantly improved as compared to that of 2017/18 since a majority of products produced in 2017/18 were sold in 2018/19, thus the greenhouse gas intensity (calculated by turnover) was dramatically reduced as compared to that of last reporting period.

To reduce air pollutant and greenhouse gas emissions, the Group streamlined its workflows and cut down business trip as well as purchased vehicles that meet emission standards. The Group will make ongoing assessment and record, and disclose its data on greenhouse gas emissions on an annual basis. Based on the strategic adjustment of business, the Group will also take the data for this reporting year as a benchmark to provide a comparison for that of the subsequent years. Such comparison will become the basis for developing carbon reduction objectives, initiatives and priority in the future.
