8. Income tax (continued)

The Company and its subsidiaries are registered in the PRC and have operations only in Mainland China. They are subject to PRC corporate income tax ("CIT") on the taxable income as reported in their PRC statutory accounts adjusted in accordance with relevant PRC income tax laws.

The applicable CIT rate for the Company and subsidiaries is 25% except for below entities that would be entitled to preferential tax rates as described below:

According to Caishui (2011) No.58 jointly issued by Ministry of Finance, General Administration of Customs and State Administration of Taxation (SAT) on 27 July 2011, the enterprises in encouraged industries in Western China are eligible for a preferential CIT rate of 15% for the period from 1 January 2011 to 31 December 2020. Pursuant to the Public Notice [2014] No.15 issued by National Development and Reform Commission on 20 August 2014, the Company and its subsidiary, CMAL Bo Yu Transportation Co., Ltd., ("CMAL Bo Yu") satisfy the conditions for tax incentives, and the applicable CIT rate for both of them is 15%.

According to Caishui (2020) No.23 "Notice on continuation of the corporate income tax policy for the enterprises in Western China", jointly issued by Ministry of Finance, SAT and National Development and Reform Commission on 28 April 2020, the enterprises in encouraged industries in Western China continue to be eligible for a preferential CIT rate of 15% for the period from 1 January 2021 to 31 December 2030. So the Company and CMAL Bo Yu would continue to be applicable to the CIT rate of 15%.

9. (Loss)/earnings per share attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent

The calculation of basic (loss)/earnings per share amounts is based on the (loss)/profit for the Period attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent, and the weighted average number of ordinary shares of 162,064,000 (six month ended 30 June 2019: 162,064,000) in issue during the Period.

Impairment testing of goodwill

The Group performs its annual impairment test of goodwill in December and when circumstances indicate the carrying value may be impaired. The recoverable amount of each cash-generating unit is based on value-in-use calculations. The key assumptions used to determine the recoverable amount for the different cash generating units were disclosed in the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019.

Transportation services for finished vehicle cash- generating unit

As there had been no circumstances indicating that the goodwill of RMB5,016,000 allocated to finished vehicle cash-generating unit may be impaired, the Group did not perform the impairment test of goodwill allocated to finished vehicle cash-generating unit as at 30 June 2020.

Storage management services cash-generating unit

The goodwill of RMB2,441,000 allocated to storage management services cash-generating unit was fully impaired in 2015 due to significant decrease in the production volume and sales volume of the cash- generating unit's major customer.

24. Fair value and fair value hierarchy of financial instruments

The carrying amounts of the Group's and the Company's financial instruments reasonably approximate to fair value.

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

The fair values of the non-current portion of interest-bearing bank and other loans have been calculated by discounting the expected future cash flows using rates currently available for instruments with similar terms, credit risk and remaining maturities, which approximate to their carrying amounts.

The Group's corporate finance team headed by the finance manager is responsible for determining the policies and procedures for the fair value measurement of financial instruments. The finance manager reports directly to the audit committee. At the end of each reporting period, the corporate 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 financial officer.

The fair values of the financial assets and liabilities are included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.

The fair value of unlisted equity investment designated at fair value through other comprehensive income has been estimated using a market-based valuation technique based on assumptions that are not supported by observable market prices or rates. The valuation requires the directors to determine comparable public companies (peers) based on industry, size, leverage and strategy, and calculates a price to book value ("P/B") multiple, for each comparable company identified. The multiple is calculated by dividing the enterprise value of the comparable company by an earnings measure. The trading multiple is then discounted for considerations such as illiquidity and size differences between the comparable companies based on company-specific facts and circumstances. The discounted multiple is applied to the corresponding earnings measure of the unlisted equity investments to measure the fair value. The directors believe that the estimated fair values resulting from the valuation technique, which are recorded in the consolidated statement of financial position, and the related changes in fair values, which are recorded in other comprehensive income, are reasonable, and that they were the most appropriate values at the end of the reporting period.

The discount for lack of marketability represents the amounts of premiums and discounts determined by the Group that market participants would take into account when pricing the investments.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

BUSINESS REVIEW

In the first half of 2020, the impact brought about by the unexpected coronavirus outbreak has been unprecedented, and the world economy has fallen into the worst recession since World War II. Internationally, trade protectionism is on the rise, Sino-US trade frictions continue to worsen and escalate, world trade expansion has slowed down, putting the world economy under mounting pressure, weakening economic recovery and increasing uncertainty. Domestically, the first half of 2020 has witnessed severe risks and challenges, and the whole country has made concerted efforts in preventing and controlling the epidemic to facilitate social and economic development. China's economic operation first declined and then rose, and it has steadily recovered. The gross domestic production ("GDP") decreased by 1.6% as compared with the corresponding period of last year. In terms of quarters, the first quarter of 2020 went down by 6.8% compared to the same period of last year, and the second quarter of 2020 increased by 3.2% compared to the same period of last year.

According to the statistics of China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, in the first half of 2020, the cumulative automobile production volume and sales volume in the PRC were approximately 10,112,000 vehicles and 10,257,000 vehicles respectively, down approximately 16.8% and 16.9% respectively as compared to the corresponding period of last year. The completion in the first half of the year was lower than expected. As shown by the production and sales figures as of June 2020 quoted by China Association of Automobile Manufacturers on its website, notwithstanding the narrowing overall declining rate, the automobile industry is still facing a great amount of downward pressure in terms of automobile production and sales.

Due to the overall slowdown in the growth of automobile industry, fierce market competition and decrease in new products launches as compared with the corresponding period of last year, for the six months ended 30 June 2020, the production volume and sales volume of the Group's major customer, Chongqing Changan Automobile Co., Ltd. ("Changan Automobile") were 819,575 vehicles and 830,992 vehicles respectively, representing a decrease of 0.01% and an increase of 1.33% respectively as compared with the corresponding period of last year. Changan Automobile's market performance exceeded the industry average in the first half of the year.

For the six months ended 30 June 2020, affected by decline in production and sales of automobiles by customers, the Group recorded a total revenue of approximately RMB1,828,526,000, representing a decrease of approximately 4.80% as compared with the corresponding period of last year. The income from transportation of finished vehicles, sale of goods and supply chain management of car raw materials, components and parts for the six months ended 30 June 2020 accounted for approximately 48.37%,

9.12% and 42.51%, respectively, of the Group's total revenue (for the six months ended 30 June 2019: approximately 53.23%, 8.77% and 38.00%, respectively). Detailed breakdown of revenue is set out in note 4 to the interim condensed consolidated financial information of this report.

For the six months ended 30 June 2020, due to the overall weakness of the domestic automotive industry, intensified competition in the automotive logistics market, continued decline in logistics service prices, and rising operating costs caused by rising transportation costs and other unfavorable factors, the Group's gross profit margin and net profit margin decreased to 3.17% (for six months ended 30 June 2019: 5.89%) and negative 2.15% (for six months ended 30 June 2019: 0.98%), respectively. The profit attributable to the equity holders of the Company for the six months ended 30 June 2020 decreased to approximately RMB (43,318,000) from approximately RMB13,994,000 in the corresponding period of last year.

PROSPECTS

From a global perspective, the epidemic continues to spread rapidly, and the prevention and control situation is still severe. Affected by the pandemic, the world economy has slid into recession and subsequent recovery will be prolonged, while, at the same time, the global trade protectionism and geopolitical risks will further increase uncertainties for global economic recovery. From the perspective of the domestic situation, the economy will gradually recover as a result of better virus control, proactive macroeconomic policies, and a massive domestic market which will support further reform, opening-up and the continuous release of innovation. That being said, the unstable Sino-US relations and fast spreading of virus worldwide will lead to greater uncertainties in terms of global economic recovery. The pressure and challenges facing China's economic development are still great.

With the increasing uncertainty of global and domestic microeconomic trends, the development trend of automobile industry in the second half of 2020 is also mixed. From the perspective of international situation, the current international market environment is complicated and international economic and trade rules have entered into a period of in-depth adjustment, which would confront the domestic automakers with harsher export environment. In addition, the statistics released by China Association of Automobile Manufacturers has shown that automobile exports in the first half of 2020 totaled 386,000 units, representing a decrease of 20.9% compared with the corresponding period of last year. Under the combined effect of the objective conditions of repeated overseas resurgence of the virus, suppressed exports and intensified trade frictions, the prospects for export of automobiles in the second half of 2020 are also not optimistic. From a domestic perspective, as China has achieved positive results in the overall epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development, the overall recovery of economic operations has continued to improve, especially driven by various consumer promotion policies, market players have accelerated the resumption of business and market, consumption by residents has increased in an orderly manner, market vitality has gradually increased, and market sales have continued to improve.

With crisis comes the opportunities and with challenges comes with new prospects. In the second half of 2020, the Company will continue to work hard to carry out operational plans and try its best to achieve a decent business results by sizing every moment with passion and overcoming obstacles with unswerving determination. The Company will remain committed to self-transformation and upgrading, high quality development, deepening reform and innovation against all the difficulties and challenges, pushing itself towards becoming a trust-worthyfirst-class intelligent logistics and supply chain provider.
