- 8 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Consideration and Payment Terms

The Consideration payable by the Purchaser to the Vendor shall be an aggregate of RMB 860 million, of which the consideration for the 90% and 10% of the equity interests of the Target Company shall be RMB774 million and RMB86 million, respectively. The consideration for the Initial Disposal shall be payable by the Purchaser to the Vendor in accordance with the schedule below:

  1. RMB387 million, being 50% of the consideration for the Initial Disposal, shall be payable by no later than 31 December 2019, of which RMB25 million had been paid to the Vendor as deposit (the ''Deposit'') for the Proposed Disposal and RMB30 million had been advanced to the Vendor as an interest free loan, respectively, shall both be applied as part of the Consideration;
  2. RMB20 million shall be payable by no later than 31 January 2020;
  3. RMB150 million shall be payable by no later than 29 February 2020;
  4. RMB100 million shall be payable by no later than 31 March 2020; and
  5. the remaining consideration for the Initial Disposal (being RMB117 million) shall be payable by no later than 30 April 2020.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, an aggregate of RMB438.3 million had been paid to the Vendor.

The consideration for the remaining 10% of the equity interests of the Target Company of RMB86 million shall be payable to the Vendor within a period of two years from the date of the Investment Agreement.

The Consideration was negotiated and determined after arm's length negotiation between the parties with reference to various factors, including, inter alia, (i) the historical financial position and performance of the Businesses to be injected into the Target Group;

  1. the reasons and benefits to be derived by the Group from the Proposed Disposal as set out in the section headed ''Reasons for and Benefits of the Proposed Disposal'' below; and
  2. the non-compete undertaking (details of which are set out in the section headed ''Non- compete Undertaking'' below) required to be provided by the Group. Each of the factors mentioned above are equally weighted in determination of the Consideration.

- 9 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

While the factors which the Purchaser had taken into account when determining the amount of the Consideration to offer as well as the reason for the substantial premium over the net asset value of Target Group were not revealed to the Vendor, taking into account the above factors, the fact that the Consideration of RMB860 million represents a considerable amount of premium of approximately RMB771 million over the unaudited net asset value of the Target Group as at 31 October 2019 of approximately RMB89 million and also a premium of approximately RMB213 million over the fair value of the Target Group of approximately RMB647 million, the Directors are of the view that the Consideration offered by the Purchaser is acceptable and financially rewarding to the Group, and is fair and reasonable and is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

Conditions Precedent

Completion of the Proposed Disposal is conditional upon the fulfilment of the following Conditions:

  1. the approval from the Shareholders at the SGM approving the Agreements and the transactions contemplated thereunder as required by the Listing Rules (if applicable); and
  2. the completion of the Reorganisation.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, item (ii) above had been completed.

Completion

Upon fulfilment of the Conditions and the payment of the consideration for the Initial Disposal, the Vendor shall transfer 90% of the equity interests of the Target Company to the Purchaser as soon as practicable and file for the transfer of title to the Purchaser with the relevant PRC government authority.

Within two years from the date of the Investment Agreement, at the request of the Purchaser, the Vendor shall further transfer the remaining 10% of the equity interests in the Target Company to the Purchaser. The splitting arrangement was a term incorporated in the 1st draft of the Investment Agreement circulated by the Purchaser and the Company did not have strong rejection to that taking into account that (i) the Purchaser is willing to pay up to 50% of the consideration for the Initial Disposal to the Vendor on or before 31 December 2019 prior to the completion of the Initial Disposal; (ii) the splitting arrangement is better than a deferred payment arrangement as the Group will still be the legal and beneficial owner of the 10% equity interests of the Target Group prior to receipt of the payment of the consideration; and (iii) the Purchaser is bound to acquire the 10% equity interests of the Target Group within the scheduled two-year period.

- 10 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

If the Conditions have been fulfilled, but Completion does not take place due to the default of the Purchaser, the Vendor shall have right to forfeit the Deposit in the amount of RMB25 million; while if the Conditions have been fulfilled, but Completion does not take place due to the default of the Vendor, the Vendor shall refund a sum of RMB50 million, being the Deposit of RMB25 million together with a sum equivalent to the Deposit (for that portion as compensation) to the Purchaser.

Upon completion of the Initial Disposal, the Target Group will cease to be subsidiaries of the Company and will be owned as to 90% by the Purchaser and 10% by the Vendor, and the financial results of the Target Group will no longer be consolidated into the Group's financial statements.

Corporate Guarantee

Pursuant to the Agreements, upon completion of the Initial Disposal, Harbin Coslight Storage Battery has agreed to provide corporate guarantee in favour of the Purchaser for any liability with amount exceeding RMB5 million (per annum) arising from products sold prior to the completion of the Initial Disposal to be assumed by the Vendor.

As (i) the Directors are confident in the quality of the products sold by the Group and believe that the chance for having product claims of more than RMB5 million (per annum) is little; and (ii) the Purchaser would not have entered into the Agreements without any security or guarantee provided by the Group (which the Company has successfully bargained to merely provide the corporate guarantee under the Supplemental Agreement instead of provision of equity pledge as originally contemplated under the Investment Agreement), the Directors are of the view that it is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders to agree to the provision of corporate guarantee.

Non-compete Undertaking

Pursuant to the Agreements, the Vendor further agreed that for a term of 10 years commencing from the date of completion of the Initial Disposal, it shall not, and shall procure its associates not to, directly or indirectly, without the prior written approval of the Purchaser:

  1. invest in any company which is engaged in any business which may be in competition with the same or similar business (storage lithium batteries business) of the Target Company and Harbin Coslight New Energy; and

- 11 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

  1. employ or assist to employ, any current and former employees (unless the termination of such former employees have been effected for more than a period of two years) of the Target Company and Harbin Coslight New Energy or jointly with the said employees, to engage in any business which may be in competition with the same or similar business (storage lithium batteries business) of the Target Company and Harbin Coslight New Energy.

The Purchaser has undertaken to procure that the Target Group shall not be engaged in any lithium power battery business in India for a term of 10 years commencing from the date of completion of the Initial Disposal.

The Vendor agreed to give the above non-compete undertaking because the Purchaser would not enter into the Agreements or would not agree to the Consideration without the same as such non-compete undertaking constitutes one of the key reasons why the Purchaser is willing to pay the Consideration of RMB860 million which represents a considerable amount of premium of approximately RMB771 million over the unaudited net assets value of the Target Group as at 31 October 2019 of approximately RMB89 million; and the Group does not intend to continue to engage in the Businesses after completion of the Initial Disposal. In the circumstances, the Directors are of the view that it is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole to agree to provide such non-compete undertaking to the Purchaser.

As the Purchaser has requested the non-compete undertaking restricting the Group's engagement in the storage lithium battery business, the Vendor then made a counter proposal, and after further negotiation between the parties, it is agreed that the Target Group shall be restricted from engaging in the lithium power battery business in India for a term of 10 years commencing from the date of completion of the Initial Disposal.

The Group attaches great importance to the market in India taking into account of its substantial growth potential (i.e. India has a large area, a large population and its economic development is relatively backward). It is expected that the future market demand for lithium power batteries (electric cars and electric bicycles) will be huge, which the Board is optimistic in this market's future development. Further, the Group has developed in the Indian market for a long period of time with solid foundation, which it is keen to have the said non-compete undertaking to protect this market.

- 12 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Other terms

Pursuant to the Agreements, the Vendor shall give a two-yearrent-free period to Harbin Coslight New Energy for the continued use of certain plants and facilities where the storage lithium batteries business operates (with a fair value of approximately RMB4.04 million). It is expected that those plants and facilities will continue to be leased to Harbin Coslight New Energy after the two-yearrent-free period, and the rental payable will be determined with reference to the then prevailing market price for similar lease arrangement and the depreciation costs of those plants and facilities.

Harbin Coslight New Energy can continue to use the name ''Coslight'' at nil consideration for a term of five years commencing from completion of the Initial Disposal to ensure the smooth transfer of the key customers and suppliers from the Group to Harbin Coslight New Energy. Harbin Coslight New Energy can consider changing the name after the key customers and suppliers of the Businesses have been smoothly transferred to Harbin Coslight New Energy.

The Vendor shall after completion of the Initial Disposal, transfer all the inventories (including raw materials, semi-finished products and products relating to the Businesses) at cost to Harbin Coslight New Energy.

These arrangements are all for the purpose of facilitating the smooth transfer of the Businesses as well as the key customers and suppliers of the Businesses to Harbin Coslight New Energy, which are all key to the acquisition of the Target Group by the Purchaser. As the Target Group is light in assets, it is of utmost concern of the Purchaser that the Businesses can be smoothly transferred, in particular, the key suppliers and customers attributable to the Businesses.

The fair values of both the two-yearrent-free period (of approximately RMB 4.04 million) and right to use the name ''Coslight'' at nil consideration for a term of five years have been considered by the valuer in preparing the valuation as set out in the valuation report incorporated in Appendix IV to this circular. As the Target Group is valued by using the market approach, employing the actual operation history of the carved out business under the tradename of ''Coslight'', the valuation obtained thereunder has already reflected the value of using the tradename of ''Coslight'' in the business operations and no adjustment is required for the right of use of the tradename at nil consideration.

The Vendor agreed to the above term because the Purchaser would not enter into the Agreements or would not agree to the Consideration (which represents a considerable amount of premium of approximately RMB771 million over the unaudited net assets value of the Target Group as at 31 October 2019 of approximately RMB89 million) without the same as the smooth transfer of the Businesses under the same name ''Coslight'' is one of the key concerns raised by the Purchaser which the Vendor needs to address. In the circumstances, the Directors are of the view that it is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole to agree to such terms in the Agreements.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

For the purpose of the Reorganisation, the Vendor has acquired (i) the 70% equity interests of Lexel Battery (Shenzhen) from Harbin Coslight Storage Battery at a consideration of RMB21 million; and (ii) the remaining 10% and 20% equity interests of Lexel Battery (Shenzhen) from Mr. Gao Xue Feng and Harbin Coslight Group Company Limited (a company owned as to 91.66% by Mr. Song Yang (the son of Mr. Song Dian Quan, the controlling Shareholder, chairman and executive Director of the Company)), at a consideration of RMB3 million and RMB6 million, respectively, all on 25 September 2019. The Vendor then subsequently transferred the entire equity interests in Lexel Battery (Shenzhen) to the Target Company on 27 November 2019.

Lexel Battery (Shenzhen) is principally engaged in the manufacture and sale of nickel batteries. The financial information of Lexel Battery (Shenzhen) was presented under the ''nickel batteries'' segment as at 30 June 2019. The entire nickel batteries business forms part of the Target Group subject to the Proposed Disposal, as Lexel Battery (Shenzhen) represents the entire ''nickel batteries'' segment of the Group.

Despite that the non-compete undertaking does not restrict the Company to further engage/develop in the ''nickel batteries'' business, it is intended that the Company would not continue to engage in the nickel batteries business immediately after the Proposed Disposal taking into account the Group's nickel batteries products do not have a large market share and the low profit margin contribution to the Group from this business segment. As such, the Group does not intend to allocate resources in the ''nickel batteries'' business in the near future.

Notes:

  1. As disclosed in the interim report of the Company for the six months ended 30 June 2019, the revenue of Lexel Battery (Shenzhen) (presented under ''Nickel Batteries'' segment), the revenue of Shenzhen Coslight Power (presented under ''Others'' segment) and the revenue attributable to the Assets (presented under ''Lithium-ion Batteries'' segment) was approximately RMB60.958 million, approximately RMB1.294 million and approximately RMB274.07 million, respectively, which in aggregate amounted to approximately RMB336.322 million, which is close to RMB344.697 million as disclosed above. The variance was due to audit adjustments (i.e. reverse of inter-segment sale elimination and cut-off adjustment).
  2. The fluctuations in the Target Group's net profits/loss for the years ended 31 December 2017 and 2018, for the six months ended 30 June 2019 and for the ten months ended 31 October 2019 was principally due to change in gross margins contributed by drop in sales price of storage lithium batteries with limited reduction in production cost as well as change in proportion of sales contributed by different geographical location of customers (with different gross margins, i.e. from higher to lower - South Africa, South Korea, India and Vietnam) in these periods:
    1. for the year ended 31 December 2017, for the purpose of expansion of its market share in Vietnam, the Group provided greater discount to new customer in Vietnam (with negative gross margin generated from this geographical location), which seriously affected the gross margin. Also, the proportion of sales contributed by customers in India decreased in 2017 which seriously affected the volume of sales and the Group was unable to enjoy the economies of scale in production resulting in a higher production cost per unit. Also, the sales price of the storage lithium batteries demonstrated a decreasing trend;
    2. for the year ended 31 December 2018, the sales contributed by customers in India reached record high so that the Group enjoyed the economies of scale in production resulting in a lower production cost per unit with improved gross margin when compared to the year in 2017, despite the continuous decrease in sales prices of the storage lithium batteries;

- 16 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

  1. for the six months ended 30 June 2019, the sales price of the storage lithium batteries further decreased by more than approximately 20% when compared to the price in 2018, the proportion of sales contributed by customers in India decreased while the same from customers in Vietnam (with negative gross margin) increased to approximately 30% (versus approximately 16% in 2017) and increasing production costs per unit, resulting in a net loss position for this period; and
  2. for the ten months ended 31 October 2019, there was again change in proportion of sales contributed by different geographical location of customers from the first half of 2019 and the second half of 2019. As mentioned in (iii) above the sales contributed by customers of Vietnam in the first half of 2019 represented approximately 30% but the profit margin attributed thereunder was negative; while in the second half of 2019, there was no sales contributed by customers in Vietnam, which indirectly improved the profit margin in such period.

The unaudited combined total assets and net assets of the Target Group as at 31 October 2019 were approximately RMB228 million and RMB89 million, respectively.

INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

The principal activities of the Group are the research and development, manufacture and sales of battery products and related accessories and the operation, research and development of online games. As a leading cell and battery manufacturer in the PRC, the primary product of the Group is battery, which is classified into three major categories: SLA batteries, lithium-ion batteries and nickel batteries.

  • SLA batteries and related accessories - manufacture and sale of SLA batteries and related accessories

The Group specialized in the production of fixed-valve regulated SLA battery products which are mainly used as standby power for telephone and telecommunications exchange stations and power control stations and can also be used on electric bicycles.

Gross margin of batteries for telecommunication base stations was put under pressure due to keen competition among peers in the industry and the rise in production costs and the increase in price of the main raw materials for the production of SLA battery products. The Group has begun to transform the SLA battery production facilities and workshops in Harbin into corresponding parts and supporting facilities suitable for the production of lithium power battery to cope with the huge future demand for lithium power battery and to reduce production costs, so as to enhance the competitiveness of power battery products.

- 17 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Despite the above, the manufacture and sale of SLA batteries and related accessories will still be an important business segment of the Group, due to the increasingly stringent approval process for production of SLA batteries (which nearly no new production permit will be issued by the government) and the increasing demand for batteries with high performance and quality standards and the continued emphasis on environmental protection in the manufacturing process had already adversely affected the operation of relatively small SLA batteries manufacturers and therefore offer more opportunities for established market leaders like the Group in the PRC and also in India.

  • Lithium-ionbatteries - manufacture and sale of lithium-ion batteries

Lithium-ion batteries are secondary cells which are rechargeable. It can be formed into many shapes which makes them ideal for portable consumer products items such as laptops, smartphones, etc with high energy-densities and do not require priming when first used and have a low self-discharge.

Lithium polymer battery

Lithium-ion batteries have become the core business segment of the Group since 2010, as driven by strong demand and rapid development for smartphone and tablet personal computers, in particular, cell phones lithium-ion batteries and lithium polymer batteries. Despite the continuous increase in demand for lithium polymer batteries, the profit margin narrowed due to the increase in the cost of raw materials and wages and keen competition in this thin-margin industry The Group has no longer been engaged in any manufacture and sale of lithium polymer battery business after the disposal of various subsidiaries engaged in this business in 2017 and 2018.

Power battery

The Group has invested resources on the R&D of lithium ferrite batteries (lithium power batteries) which are specially designed for bike, electric bicycles, and/or electric vehicles (EV battery) and for power station since 2007. The same has been launched to the market since 2008 initially for bikes and electric bicycles and then for electric vehicles since 2012.

The Group has strategically tied up stronger partnerships with domestic and international carriers in relation to the provision of a wide range of system solutions for power battery, which replace traditional lead-acid battery products with the outstanding advantages of clean energy, environment friendly, small in size, light in weight, long life, etc. in recent years. The Group's power battery products, include lithium ferrite phosphate batteries and ternary power batteries, are applicable to different types of electric vehicles, including pure electric passenger vehicles, hybrid passenger vehicles, electric vehicles and pure electric sedans; and electric bicycles and electric motorcycles. The Group provides complete sets of battery solutions for electric vehicles, including cells and battery management system, targeting larger-scale electric carmakers.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Driven by China's new energy policy, the demand for new energy electric vehicles is expected to continue to grow, the EV battery has become the growth engine of the Group.

Storage lithium battery

In respect of the applications in telecommunications base stations and energy storage systems, storage lithium ferrite batteries are more suitable for providing continuous and reliable power supply in regions where there is an unstable supply of electricity, in mountainous areas and under high temperature environment, when compared to traditional lead-acid battery products. The major customers of the Group's storage lithium battery for communication were the telecom operators and mobile operators in India, Vietnam, South Africa, South Korea, Russia and China.

The gross margin of storage lithium battery for communication manufactured by the Group was put under pressure due to keen competition among peers in the industry, the sale price significantly drop in 2019 when compared to that in 2013 and longer account receivable period. It also comes along with increasing cost pressure arising from the need for substantial capital investment for this business operation as it needs to commit resources to continuously expand its production capacity with high debt ratio. As such, the Group decided to further shift its core business focus to lithium power batteries as described above, taking advantage of the increasing demand for new energy electric vehicles driven by the China new energy policy, by disposing of the Target Group.

  • Nickel batteries - manufacture and sale of nickel batteries

Nickel batteries are small-size and sealed rechargeable nickel batteries, such as AA and

  1. size rechargeable batteries with characteristics of high energy provision, long life, etc. The nickel batteries of the Group are produced by Lexel Battery (Shenzhen), which is the sole holder of the invention patent of ultra-lowself-discharge nickel batteries in China. The major customers for the Group's nickel batteries are the enterprises in China, Hong Kong, Japan, East of Asia, European and the United States of America.

Save for members of the Target Group, the Group does not have any other subsidiaries which will be principally engaged in the storage lithium batteries and nickel batteries businesses.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Company did not have any intention or plan to downsize, cease or dispose of any of its existing businesses, save for the Proposed Disposal.

FINANCIAL EFFECT OF THE PROPOSED DISPOSAL

The unaudited consolidated total assets and total liabilities of the Group as at 30 June 2019 were approximately RMB7,255.6 million and RMB4,801.8 million, respectively as disclosed in the interim report of the Company for the six months ended 30 June 2019. Based on the unaudited pro forma financial information of the Remaining Group as set out in Appendix III to this circular, assuming completion of the Proposed Disposal had taken place on 30 June 2019, the unaudited pro forma consolidated total assets and total liabilities of the Remaining Group would be approximately RMB7,898.9 million and RMB4,798.9 million, respectively; and the gearing ratio and the current ratio of the Group as at 30 June 2019 would be 36%* (from 50%) and 117%* (from 100%), respectively.

  • After consideration that RMB60 million are used to repay the bank borrowing (current liabilities), RMB350 million for settlement of outstanding payments to the supplier (current liabilities), RMB95 million for tax related to the proposed disposal (current liabilities).

- 20 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

It is expected that the Group will record a book gain (before taxation) of approximately RMB737 million as a result of the Initial Disposal which represents the difference of (a) the sum of (i) the consideration for the Initial Disposal of RMB774 million and (ii) the fair value attributable to 10% of the Target Group of approximately RMB52 million* (as valued by Ascent Partners Valuation Service Limited, an independent valuer based on market approach) and (b) the combined unaudited net assets values of the Target Group as at 31 October 2019 of approximately RMB89 million.

  • The fair value attributable to 10% equity interests of the Target Group is not proportioned by the 100% equity interests of the Target Group because there is a control premium applied in the valuation of 90% equity interests of the Target Group, which constitutes controlling interest. In comparison, no control premium is applied in the valuation of 10% equity interests of the Target Group.

The expected book gain (before taxation) as a result of the disposal of the remaining 10% of the equity interests of the Target Group is expected to be approximately RMB34 million (being the difference of the consideration of RMB86 million less the fair value attributable to 10% of the Target Group of approximately RMB52 million).

Shareholders should note that the above figures are for illustrative purpose only. The actual gain on the Proposed Disposal may be different from the above and will be determined based on the financial position of the Target Group on the date of completion of the Proposed Disposal and the review by the Group's auditors upon finalization of the consolidated financial statements of the Group.

Based on the unaudited pro forma financial information of the Remaining Group as set out in Appendix III to this circular, assuming completion of the Proposed Disposal had taken place on 1 January 2018, the unaudited pro forma consolidated profit of the Remaining Group for the year ended 31 December 2018 would be approximately RMB735.8 million.

USE OF PROCEEDS

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Proposed Disposal of approximately RMB858 million for the following purpose:

  1. approximately RMB95 million for settlement of tax related to the Proposed Disposal;
  2. approximately RMB350 million for settlement of outstanding payments to suppliers;
  3. approximately RMB60 million for the repayment of the Company's outstanding bank borrowings;
  4. approximately RMB75 million for market expansion; and
  5. approximately RMB278 million for general working capital of the Group.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE PROPOSED DISPOSAL

As disclosed in the 2019 interim report of the Company, the Group has a relatively low level of bank balances of approximately RMB154,817,000 compared to bank borrowings of approximately RMB1,176,923,000 as at 30 June 2019. Also, the Group's gearing ratio, defined as the ratio between sum of bank borrowing and obligations under finance leases or lease liabilities and Shareholders' equity, was 50%; and the current ratio of the Group, represented by a ratio between current assets over current liabilities, reached 100% as at 30 June 2019.

Having considered (i) the high gearing ratio of the Group; and (ii) the uncertain outlook of the Chinese economy, particularly the possible fall-outs from the US-China trade war and the continuing structural weaknesses in the Chinese economy, the Board considers that it would be prudent for the Group to trim its assets and reduce its gearing as and when the opportunity arises; thus improving the Group's resilience to further downturns in the economy. The Board believes that it is a good opportunity to dispose of the Target Group at such a good price which would also allow the Group to repay its outstanding payments to suppliers and outstanding bank loans and therefore strengthen the liquidity and overall financial position of the Group.

Further, as mentioned above, the Company is of the view that there is keen competition among peers in the industry which led to the significant drop in sale price of the storage lithium batteries in 2019 when compared to the same in 2013. If the Group would like to maintain its position in this industry, it needs to commit further financial resources to continuously upgrade its equipment and expand its production capacity, which is difficult to achieve taking into account the Group's existing financial situation (high debt ratio).

The lithium power battery, especially the electric vehicle lithium power battery, has always been the top priority of the Company's future development, because the Company believes that the lithium-ion battery is still the preferred power source for new energy vehicles for a long time. The Company is convinced that the China's government policy for the development of new energy vehicles will not be changed, and its determination to use the new energy to achieve ''curve overtaking'' in the auto industry will not be changed, and lithium power batteries will have its broad development prospect.

As such, the Company considers that the Proposed Disposal represents an optimal opportunity for the Group to realise the value of its investments in the Businesses and would benefit the Group by strengthening the liquidity and the overall financial position of the Group by reducing its financial pressure substantially and immediately, and allowing the Group to focus its resources in its other existing businesses (in particular, the lithium power batteries business) which are considered to be more viable, sustainable and with growth potentials and increase the Company's ability to repay its debt, lower the Company's debt-to-assets ratio. All these will help improve the financial performance and position of the Company, enhance the core competitiveness and the comprehensive efficiency of the Company.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

4. MATERIAL ADVERSE CHANGE

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Directors were not aware of any material adverse change in the financial or trading position of the Group since 31 December 2018, being the date on which the latest published audited consolidated financial statements of the Group were made up.

5. FINANCIAL AND TRADING PROSPECTS

The Measures for the Parallel Administration of the Average Fuel Consumption and New Energy Vehicle Credits of Passenger Vehicle Enterprises(乘用車企業平均燃料消耗量與新能源 汽車積分並行管理辦法)(the ''Dual Credits Measures'')1, which was promulgated by five PRC government authorities, have become effective in 2018. The introduction of the Dual Credits Measures has played a role in supporting the new energy vehicle market (which was affected by the reduction in subsidies in the electric vehicle market).

As to the future development of new energy vehicles, pursuant to the Planning for the Development of the Energy-Saving and New Energy Automobile Industry(新能源汽車產業發展 規劃)(2021-2035) (the ''Plan'')2 issued by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of the PRC in December 2019, China adheres to the direction of vehicles with pure electric drive. New energy vehicles have achieved world-renownedachievements and have become an important force leading the transformation of the world's automotive industry. At present, the new global technological revolution is booming and new energy vehicles are facing unprecedented opportunities. According to the Plan, in 2025, the number of new energy vehicles in China will reach 25% of the total number of vehicles in China. Based on the total of 28 million vehicles in China in 2018, it is expected that the number of new energy vehicles will reach 7 million per year by then. The development potential of the industry is still huge, and the Dual Credits Measures will continue to support the development of the domestic new energy vehicles market.

Although the electric vehicle industry has been affected by the reduction in subsidies in the electric vehicle market recently, and the growth rate of the domestic electric vehicle industry and the industrial chain has slowed down, the new energy vehicle industry is still in its golden development stage in the near future. The wave of energy revolution is far from over, and it is reasonable for the Group to remain optimistic about the prospect of power batteries for electric vehicle. It is expected that the demand for new energy electric vehicles will resume growth in 2020. According to the Group's orders on hand and current market conditions, its power battery delivery and sales revenue in 2020 will be expected to increase compared with the year in 2019.

DIVIDEND

The Board does not recommend the payment of an interim dividend to the Shareholders for the period (2018: Nil).

BUSINESS REVIEW

Storage Lithium Battery and Lithium Power Battery

During the period, the main customers of our storage lithium battery for communication were the telecom operators in India, Vietnam, South Africa and South Korea. During the period, a total of approximately 55,000 sets of battery packs for base stations were delivered. This was a decrease of approximately 45% compared to approximately 100,000 units in the same period last year. This was mainly due to the supply of telecom operators in India last year was concentrated in the first half of the year. This year, they delayed some orders from the period to the second half of the year. On the other hand, the PRC government 2019 new energy vehicles subsidies policy adjustments gave the electric vehicles industry a significant impact. Due to the decline in subsidies and weak demand for products, coupled with fierce market competition, product prices were under pressure and gross profit margins fell sharply.

SLA Battery

During the period, the sales volume of SLA battery products amounted to RMB231,126,000 (2018: RMB215,422,000), a slight increase of 7.29% compared with the same period of last year. It is a general trend that the storage battery for communication be changed from using the lead-acid battery to the lithium battery so the sales of SLA storage batteries for communication continued to decline during this period, but the sale of SLA batteries for electric bicycles increased which offset the said decline.

The Company continues to rebuild some of the SLA battery production facilities and plants into various parts and supporting facilities suitable for the production of power lithium batteries to match with the Company's future growth of lithium power batteries.

During the period, the Company's SLA power batteries for electric bicycles have gradually won the favor of customers, and it is expected to achieve larger growth in the near future.

Online Games

During the period, ''問道'' revenue increased slightly compared with the same period of 2018. In the first half of the year, we updated the new paid game ''浮生錄'', which is popular with players. In order to attract more players, based on the three featured servers, fixed digital server, anniversary server and PK server, we have used the high-end player PK competition this year to create a new star costume of ''星耀中

'', attracting a large number of celebrity players and their followers. On the mobile side, we have started the construction of the mobile official website. At the same time, we further optimized the functions of the Guangyu APP, added related functions such as binding on the mobile phone, and re-planned the Guangyu APP finishing function and interface, further increasing users experience and enhance players' adherence. In addition, due to the policy adjustment of the government regulatory authorities, the suspension of the game version number, the Company's self research and development products ''創世三'' and several mobile games, H5 game promotion plan has been affected to a certain extent. As the release of the game version is gradually restored, the promotion and operation of new products will gradually back to normal. The online game business contributed a segment profit of RMB80,739,000 (2018: RMB69,603,000) to the Group, representing an increase of 16% over the corresponding period last year.

PROSPECTS

Driven by the marketization of the PRC's new energy policy, the industry has gradually separated from the impact of subsidies. We expect the price of new energy electric vehicles to bottom out in the second half of 2019, and demand will restore to grow. According to our orders on hand and current market conditions, our power battery delivery and sales revenue in the second half of the year will be expected to increase compared with the first half.

In the second half of 2019, we will launch a new expansion pack, new feature suits and different featured servers to meet the needs of different players. At the same time, we will also carry out a comprehensive revision of our Guangyu APP to create a small Guangyu community. In addition, the Company's PC game ''創世三'' also entered into the preparatory stage of operation. It will be launched at the end of 2019.

Lithium Power Battery

In addition to being applicable to all types of electric vehicles, our power battery products can also be installed in communication base stations to supply power to telecommunication equipment. In the meantime, the power battery capacity reaches 4.5GWh. In the domestic electric vehicle market, relying on the company's advantages in research and development, technology, equipment, quality, etc., we have successfully matched with many domestic large, medium and small auto manufacturers. During the year, 20,824 sets of electric vehicle batteries have been delivered. In 2018, the domestic electric vehicle market was highly competitive, the price of the products was under pressure, and the gross profit margin dropped significantly.

In telecommunications market, our major customers are telecommunications and mobile network operators in India, Vietnam, South Africa, South Korea, Egypt and other countries. Compared with traditional batteries, lithium batteries for communication are more suitable for power shortages and tropical locations, they have high energy density ratio, smaller size and longer service life. In the current year, a total of approximately 125,370 battery packs for base stations were delivered.

SLA Battery

During the year, the total sales of SLA battery products was approximately RMB429,470,000 (2017: approximately RMB751,342,000), representing a decrease of 43% compared with last year. The main reason was the transformation of the production workshop to power batteries, which led to a decline in production. Our sales volume for the year was approximately 0.7 million KVAH (2017: 1.21 million KVAH). It was down about 42% year-on-year. Among those, communication batteries and electric bicycle batteries account for 70% and 30%, respectively. We continue to convert the production facilities and workshops of the battery into corresponding parts and supporting facilities suitable for the production of power batteries. During the transformation process, and during the handover of the products, the capacity utilization rate is low, resulting in a significant drop in gross profit margin. After the completion of the transformation, the production capacity will support the future demand of power batteries, reduce production costs and enhance the competitiveness of products.

The Disposal Group had not been a separate legal group for the three years ended 31 December 2016, 2017, 2018 and ten months ended 31 October 2019 (the ''Relevant Periods''). The Unaudited Combined Financial Information is prepared on basis that combines the results, assets and liabilities of the Disposal Group using their carrying values by applying the principles below throughout the Relevant Periods as if the reorganisation had been completed.

The following summarises the principles applied in preparing the Unaudited Combined Financial Information:

  • Transactions and balances between entities included in the Disposal Group within the Unaudited Combined Financial Information have been eliminated. All intra-group balances, transactions, income and expenses and profits and losses, including unrealised profits arising from intra-group transactions, have been eliminated on combination;
  • Certain plants and machineries of Harbin Coslight Power and the related operating results generated by those plant and machinery being injected into the Disposal Group. These represent the capital distribution of the Harbin Coslight Power into the Disposal Group which is recognised in general reserve of the Disposal Group; and,
  • Registered capital at 31 December 2016, 2017, 2018 and 31 October 2018 represented combined registered capital of Lexel Battery and Shenzhen Coslight Power while the registered capital at 31 October 2019 represented the combined registered capital of the Lexel Battery, Shenzhen Coslight Power and Harbin Coslight New Energy.

The Unaudited Combined Financial Information of the Disposal Group has been prepared solely for the purpose of inclusion in the circular to be issued by the Company in connection with the disposal of the equity interests of the Target Company in accordance with 14.68(2)(a)(i)(A) of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the ''Listing Rules'').

3. BACKGROUND OF THE TARGET COMPANY

The Target Company is a newly founded investment holding company with 100% equity interest in Harbin Coslight New Energy Company Limited (''HCNE''), 100% equity interest in Shenzhen Coslight Power Company Limited (''SCP'') and 100% equity interest in Lexel Battery (Shenzhen) Company Limited (''LBS'').

HCNE is a newly established company that incorporates the business operation of manufacturing and selling lithium related batteries for energy storage (the ''Lithium Battery Business'') from the subsidiary of the Company, of which the subsidiary has been operated Lithium Battery Business for several years with track earnings.

IV - 2

APPENDIX IV

VALUATION REPORT OF THE TARGET GROUP

SCP is a company that has been found with main operation of manufacturing lithium related batteries for the Lithium Battery Business only. As a nickel metal hybrid (Ni-MH) battery manufacturer, LBS has been committed to the research and development, production and marketing of environmental protection nickel batteries.

4. INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

Lithium Batteries

The lithium-ion battery (''LiB'') industry is one of the fastest growing industries, and it does not seem like it will be slowing down anytime soon. One of the key growth areas is in energy storage systems, where it is projected just in the United States (U.S.) and the People's Republic of China (''PRC'') alone, that there could be a possible jump in capacity to 101 gigawatt hours (''GWh'') in 2025 from 5 GWh in 2018. Globally, the capacity is expected to rise by 89%, from 249 GWh fully commissioned in 2018 to 470 GWh by 2020. There are also initiatives for electric vehicles (''EV'') as more manufacturers are expanding their car line ups. It does not mean that all companies within the industry are equally profitable, as competition is increasing and there will be pressure on prices because companies are investing to increase capacity to meet demands. The key points that are vital for the LiB industries are the declining prices for LiB, the ever-growing demand for LiB as the world is transitioning towards sustainable and renewable energy, and the government policies that are being enacted.

IV - 3

APPENDIX IV

VALUATION REPORT OF THE TARGET GROUP

The PRC and the U.S. will continue to dominate the market pertaining to energy- storage systems and EV. The PRC currently leads with 72% of the current market share. The PRC will continue to be the leader as most of the global capacity will be fulfilled by Chinese producers. The future projections have the PRC's market share shrinking to 54% by 2023 from 72% in 2018 due to the increase in capacity in developing economies such as Thailand and Turkey. The U.S. on the other hand is projected to grab more market share with an expected market share of 19% by 2023. These rises in output from larger producers will consequently place price pressure on global battery manufacturers, where smaller plants will be more affected by the increased competition.

The battery prices could plunge by as much as 47% by 2024 as compared to 2018 due to the construction of new and larger plants in the PRC. Also, improvement in technologies would lower the cost of manufacturing the batteries which would also be a contributing factor to the falling prices. The drop in prices could be slowed down due to rising costs in raw materials such as lithium and cobalt. Although, it is projected that the sensitivity to cobalt prices is declining as manufacturers are likely to reduce the content of the metal in the future, especially with lithium-iron-phosphate batteries becoming more popular.

APPENDIX IV

VALUATION REPORT OF THE TARGET GROUP

Although an increase in supply will cause downward pressure on prices, upward pressure from increasing demand is still high and is growing as the electrification of the automotive industry continues, the use of batteries on the power-grid rises, and as governments push clean air policies. The demand for LiB used by EV is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (''CAGR'') of 31% through 2030. The catalyst for the growth is the dropping prices of LiB, the embracement of the technology by the automakers, and the push by governments to cut down on carbon emissions. With the increased number of EV on the road, the need for energy-storage will also rise to fulfil the growth of charging centres. This will be linked to the automakers ability to improve the range of EV and the time needed to charge the batteries. If automakers fail to make significant improvement in such areas, the adoption of EV will be slowed, which would significantly impact the aforementioned projections.

Many utility companies are using energy storage systems to help smooth the power supply of renewable energy generation, by storing excess energy for peak-demand periods, and by supplementing it when energy production is low due to low wind or a lack of sunshine. This will undoubtedly increase the demand for utility-scale energy storage as the cost of building them declines and as governments provides incentives to integrate batteries into the power grid.

Governments will play a key role in increasing the demand for the LiB. Governments around the world are setting renewable-energy targets to move away from fossil fuels. In the U.S. state energy-storage mandates and a federal rule may expand opportunities for battery suppliers. There is also a small possibility that the U.S. congress will extend the investment- tax credits available to energy storage projects. If the measure is agreed upon, it would expand the deployment of LiB energy storage alongside solar energy that many companies offer.

Ni-MH Battery

At present, in developed countries, the Ni-MH Battery industry is generally at a more advanced level. The world's large enterprises are mainly concentrated in Japan and the PRC. Meanwhile, foreign companies have more advanced equipment, strong R&D capability, and leading technical level. However, foreign companies' manufacturing cost is relatively higher, compared with companies in the PRC. With the development of Chinese Ni-MH Battery production technology, their share in the international market is increasing, and competitiveness in the international market gradually increases.

IV - 5

APPENDIX IV

VALUATION REPORT OF THE TARGET GROUP

The PRC's Ni-MH Battery industry has developed into a national wide status with certain research and production capacity, industry product mix has gradually improved, currently. The PRC has become a large international production country of Ni-MH Battery, but the production technology is relatively focused in producing some low-end products. The key product of China Ni-MH Battery market is small-sized battery for household consumer electronics. Due to the rapid development of lithium batteries in the PRC, the future of Ni-MH Battery is challenged for the substituted by lithium battery in consumer electronics application.

5. ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

Global Economic Overview

The global economy has been volatile recently due to ongoing trade war between the United States and China. The effects of the dispute have subdued global growth. According to the International Monetary Fund (''IMF'') global growth is forecasted at 3.2% in 2019, with a small bump in 2020 to 3.5%. With the GDP releases thus far, the global activity is pointing towards a weaker than anticipated levels. Spending on investments and demands for consumer durables have been weakening across all market economies, advanced and emerging. Therefore, global trade has taken a huge hit and remains sluggish. The slight rise in growth in 2020 depends on stabilization in the currently distressed economic environment, and it assumes there is progress in resolving trade policy differences.

The apparent risks on the forecast are mainly downside due to the possibility of further escalation in tensions. The sentiment around trade and the economy has already caused an increase in risk aversion. Along with the fact that the current situation with monetary policy limits the possible actions to counter any downturns in the foreseeable future, which makes adverse shocks more persistent than normal.

In regard to advanced economies, the projected growth in the United States is 2.6% in

2019 and slowing down to 1.9% in 2020. The 2019 growth is due to the stronger than expected first quarter performance. The slow in growth is due to signs of weakening momentum into the rest of 2019 due to the data in regard to exports, inventory accumulation, and domestic demand showing weakness along with weaker imports due to the effect of tariffs. The euro zone is projected to grow at a rate of 1.3% in 2019 and slightly strengthening to 1.6% in 2020. The lower forecast for 2019 is due to Germany's weaker than expected external demand. Within the euro zone the rest remain unchanged for other countries.

IV - 6

APPENDIX IV

VALUATION REPORT OF THE TARGET GROUP

Regarding emerging and developing economies, Asia will be highlighted with an expected growth rate of 6.2% in 2019-2020. The forecast has actually weakened by 0.1% largely due to the impact of tariffs on trade and investment. Although policy stimulus is expected to support activity in the face of the external shock, there is still downside risk to the unpredictability of the United States.

Economic Overview of the PRC

Consistent with market expectations, Gross Domestic Product (''GDP'') of the PRC has moderated to 6.4% YoY in the fourth quarter of 2018 and first quarter of 2019, from 6.8% in the first half of 2018. This moderation has been mainly due to weak domestic consumption and investment. Stronger net exports, beyond expectation, compensated 1.5% to GDP growth in the first quarter of 2019. The increase in net exports compared to fourth quarter of 2018 is due to a combination of somewhat slower export growth and possibly some import substitution, as imports contracted.

According to World Bank, the current account surplus in the first quarter of 2019 widened to 1.9% of GDP, from 0.4% of GDP in 2018, as imports declined. Growth in the exports of goods and services slowed but remained positive, as a result of the higher US tariffs, with goods export to the US having contracted in most months since November 2018. On the other hand, weaker domestic demand was reflected in declining imports in the first quarter of 2019, with imports of goods and services contracted across product categories and trading partners.

Consumption continued to drive the economic activity and the expansion of GDP, with a growth rate of 9% YoY in 2018, which was contributed mainly by the rising household spending and declining saving. Households are spending an increasing share of their budget on health care, transport and telecommunication, and housing and a lower share on food and clothing. The rising share of healthcare in household spending was likely due to higher inflation in healthcare costs compared to the other items in consumer budgets. But its contribution to GDP growth declined to 4.2% YoY from 4.5% in last quarter of 2018. This is because recent growth in real consumption expenditure has been generally weaker than real disposable income growth, especially for urban households. While for rural households, family consumption growth has been, on average, higher than income growth, contributing to the ongoing rebalancing from investment to consumption with increased demand for domestic consumer goods and services.

IV - 7

APPENDIX IV

VALUATION REPORT OF THE TARGET GROUP

Consumer price inflation increased in recent months from higher growth in food prices, while producer price inflation further moderated. Consumer prices accelerated to 2.5% YoY in April 2019, up from an average of 2.1% YoY in 2018. The main driver for higher inflation was rising food prices, driven by a supply shortfall caused by bad weather and an outbreak of swine flu, while weaker energy prices exerted downward pressure on inflation. Core inflation, excluding food and energy prices, has remained broadly stable. Driven by weaker coal and metals price growth, producer price inflation moderated to 0.4% YoY in the first four months of 2019, down from 3.5% YoY in last year. The orders of the manufacturing industry continued to decline, and the pressure of weakening of demand increased.

Economic Outlook

Referencing the World Bank's baseline projection, the PRC's economic growth in 2019 will remain unchanged at 6.2% and slightly decline to 6.1% in 2020. Despite the positive surprise in GDP growth in the first quarter of 2019, net exports are unlikely to provide a sustained boost in the coming months, as new trade tariffs take effect and global growth slows. A deceleration in global demand growth and the escalation in trade tensions will negatively affect exports further. Consumption will remain the main driver of growth and saving will continue to decline, while higher investor uncertainty and slower credit growth are expected to weigh on investment.

These dynamics will result in greater downside risks in GDP growth, as opposed to much faster growth in the previous decade. At the same time, the PRC still has significant potential for catching up to the productivity level of high-income countries and can continue to contribute to and benefit from global integration. Economic prospects both in the PRC and in its trading partners would receive a significant boost from resolving the current trade disputes.

6. BASIS OF VALUATION

Our valuation is carried out on a fair value basis. Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standard (HKFRS) 13 Fair Value Measurement defines fair value as ''the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as at the measurement date''.

7. BASIS OF OPINION

We have conducted our valuation with reference to International Valuation Standards issued by International Valuation Standards Council (IVSC).1 The valuation procedure includes review of the financial and economic conditions of the subject business, an assessment of key assumptions, estimates, and representations made by the Target Company. All matters essential to the proper understanding of the valuation are disclosed in the valuation report. Opinion of value included in the valuation report is impartial, independent, and unbiased.

The following factors also form a considerable part of our basis of opinion:

  • Assumptions on the market and on the subject business that are considered to be fair and reasonable;
  • Historical financial performance that shows a consistent trend of the operation of the subject business;
  • Consideration and analysis on the micro- and macro-economic factors; and
  • Analytical review of the subject business.

We have planned and performed our valuation so as to obtain all the information and explanations which we considered necessary in order to provide us with sufficient evidence to express our opinion on the subject asset. We believe that our valuation provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

1 The IVSC has been in existence for more than 25 years. Its origins were in the need identified by a number of professional bodies from around the world for uniformity in the valuation approaches used in real estate markets. Over the past decade it has evolved and expanded and now produces standards for many types of assets, including plant and equipment, intangible assets and businesses. The International Valuation Standards are already recognised and accepted by a wide range of organisations including the UK Financial Services Authority, the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission, the Securities and Exchange Board of India and the European Public Real Estate Association amongst others. IVSC has also worked in liaison with the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) in producing guidance on valuations required under IFRS, an increasingly important need as IFRS is adopted in more states.

8. SOURCES OF INFORMATION

In conducting our valuation of the subject asset, we have considered, reviewed and relied upon the following key information provided by the instructing party and from the public:

  • Overview of the business nature of the Target Company;
  • Historical financial reports of the Target Company;
  • Publications and research reports regarding the related industry; and
  • Bloomberg, Hong Kong Stock Exchange and other reliable sources of market data.

In arriving at our opinion, we have assumed and relied upon the accuracy and completeness of the information reviewed by us for the purpose of this valuation. In addition, we have relied upon the statements, information, opinion and representations provided to us by the Company.

We also conducted research using various sources including government statistical releases and other publications to verify the reasonableness and fairness of information provided and we believe that the information is reasonable and reliable.

Our opinion is based upon existing economic, market, financial and other conditions which can be evaluated on the date of this report and we assume no responsibility to update or revise our opinion based on events or circumstances occurring after the date of this report. In reaching our opinion, we have made assumptions with respect to such economic, market, financial and other conditions and other matters, many of which are beyond our control or the control of any party involved in this valuation exercise.

9. VALUATION APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY

In carrying out this valuation exercise, we have considered the following approaches and methodologies:

Cost Approach - The cost approach considers the cost to reproduce or replace in new condition the assets appraised in accordance with current market prices for similar assets, with allowance for accrued depreciation arising from condition, utility, age, wear and tear, or obsolescence (physical, functional or economical) present, taking into consideration past and present maintenance policy and rebuilding history. This approach is the most practical way to produce a reliable valuation without a known established market.

Unlike market and income approaches which incorporate either market sentiments or future earnings capacity of an asset as a function to determine its current value, the cost approach considers the fundamental cost that takes to form the asset.

IV - 10

APPENDIX IV

VALUATION REPORT OF THE TARGET GROUP

Market Approach - In this approach, the value of an asset is appraised with reference to market prices of similar assets. A general way of estimating a value indication of an asset, the market approach considers prices recently paid for similar assets, with adjustments made to the indicated market prices to reflect differences in terms, conditions, etc. relative to the market comparative. Assets for which there is an established market may be appraised by this approach.

There are two methods to implement the market approach:

The Guideline Transaction Method - In the first market approach, transaction data for private and public companies is used to compute the value. In this method, a database of buy and sale records of enterprises with financial fundamentals on companies similar to the subject company is used as basis for transaction prices.

The Guideline Public Company Method - In the second market approach, the valuation multiples derived from the market prices and financial data of listed companies in a similar business is used to appraise the subject company.

Income Approach - In the income approach, the value of an asset is the present worth of the expected future economic benefits of ownership. The value of the asset to be valued is developed through the application of the discounted cash flow method to devolve the values of expected future income generated by the asset into a present value. This method eliminates the discrepancy in time value of money by using a discount rate to reflect all business risks including intrinsic and extrinsic uncertainties in relation to its underlying business operation.

Approach Adopted - In this valuation exercise for SCP, the cost approach is adopted because it has been operating with negative earnings in the past few years and its business is not expected to turn around in the future. In this respect, the cost approach which considers the net value that could be recovered from the company is the most appropriate valuation approach.

For the valuation exercise of both HCNE and LBS, the cost approach is not adopted because it does not capture the future economic benefits contributed by HCNE and LBS, and it is not generally adopted in the valuation of a going concern. The income approach is not adopted because it requires detailed information for the business operation and long-term financial projections, which requires the Management's estimation and assumptions with uncertainty. We believed that the market approach would be appropriate and reasonable in the appraisal for the fair value of both HCNE and LBS. The fair values of both HCNE and LBS have been developed through the Guideline Public Company Method. Since there are sufficient public companies in a similar business and with a similar business model as those of both HCNE and LBS being valued with shares being traded freely and actively on the markets, their market values are good indicators of the industry. Hence, this method is adopted in this valuation for both HCNE and LBS.

10. ASSUMPTIONS AND NOTES TO VALUATION

The following assumptions considered, having significant sensitivity effects in this valuation, have been evaluated and validated in arriving at our assessed values.

  1. We have assumed that there will be no material change in the existing political, legal, technological, fiscal or economic conditions which might adversely affect the economy in general and the business of the Target Company.
  2. We have not investigated any financial data to determine the earning capacity of the operation in which the assets are used, and we assumed that the prospective earnings would provide a reasonable return on the fair market value of the assets.
  3. As part of our analysis, we have reviewed the information related to this valuation, which is made available to us. We have no reason to doubt the accuracy and fairness of such information on which we have relied to a considerable extent in arriving at our opinion of value.

11. ANALYSIS AND VALUATION

In the valuation task for HCNE and LBS, following ratios have been considered:

  • Price-to-Revenue
  • Price-to-Earnings
  • Price-to-BookValue

The valuation multiples considered inappropriate in this valuation are:

The Price-to-Revenue ratio is considered not appropriate since revenue does not take into account the profitability of a company, which affects its value.

Price-to-Book ratio is considered not appropriate for this valuation because book value captures only the tangible assets of a company which, if a company creates any market value added (as reflected by a price to book ratio of larger than 1), should have its own competencies and advantages. These intangible company-specific competencies and advantages are not captured in the price-to-book ratio and so it is not a good measurement of the market value of a company. As per Pablo Fernandez, PricewaterhouseCoopers Professor of Corporate Finance, IESE Business School, book value bears little relationship to market value, only if the company adds no value.

IV - 12

APPENDIX IV

VALUATION REPORT OF THE TARGET GROUP

The valuation multiple considered appropriate and adopted in this valuation is:

Price-to-earnings ratio - This is one of the most commonly employed valuation multiples. It relates the market value of a company's equity to its normalized earnings, an important driver of shareholder's value. This multiple is derived by dividing the market capitalization of the underlying company as of the Valuation Date to its historical earnings as at the Valuation Date.

The P/E multiples, along with the market capitalisation of the following guideline public companies for HCNE and LBS as at the Valuation Date, are listed in the table respectively as below:

VALUATION REPORT OF THE TARGET GROUP

Size Adjustment for the Valuation Multiple

Guideline public companies are often of significantly different in size as compared to the Target Company, leading to different risk premiums with respect to company size. A guideline public company with lower risk premium of size (i.e. larger size) than the Target Company generally implied lower inherent risk in terms of business operation and financial performance, resulting in higher valuation multiple that derives into higher value. Similarly, the Target Company with higher risk premium of size (i.e. smaller size) implied higher business risk, resulting in lower valuation multiple. Therefore, the Price-to-Earnings ratio is adjusted to account the difference in size effect between the guideline public companies and the Target Company by using the following formula with reference to the academic paper ''Market Multiples Adjustments for Differences in Risk Profile - An Airline Company Example'' by Nina Milenković from KPMG:

1

=

1 + (

)

where:

  • Madj is the adjusted Price-to-Earnings multiple for size.
  • Mor is the original Price-to-Earnings multiple of the guideline public companies.
  • SRPs is the Specific Risk Premium and the Company Specific Risk Premium of the Target Company.
  • SRPB is the Specific Risk Premium of the guideline public companies.

Source: Market Multiples Adjustments for Differences in Risk Profile - An Airline Company Example

With reference to the size premium data in ''Duff & Phelps Cost of Capital Navigator'' by Duff & Phelps Valuation Handbook 2018, a small company risk premium of 5.22% is applied to HCNE and LBS, and a range of size premium between 0.52% and 5.22% is applied to the guideline public companies of HCNE according to their respective sizes (i.e. market capitalisation). On the other hand, no size premium is applied to the guideline public companies of LBS as their respective market capitalizations are at the same size level of LBS. As a result, 15.92 and 4.97, being the average of the adjusted Price-to-Earnings multiples listed in the following tables, are adopted to derive the fair values of equity interest of business operation in HCNE and LBS, respectively.

Each size premium is referenced to the size premium data table in ''Duff & Phelps Cost of Capital Navigator'' provided by Duff & Phelps Valuation Handbook 2018, in which different size premiums have been assigned to different ranges of market capitalization. The market capitalization of each guideline company that falls into certain ranges of market capitalization in the size premium data table is assigned a definite size premium accordingly.

Adopting the average valuation multiple is a generally accepted valuation practice. The respective average adjusted Price-to-Earnings multiple of guideline public companies above are is then applied to each of the average earnings, which is the average historical earnings of past three years and ten months prior to the Valuation Date, of HCNE and LBS to derive the value of the 100% equity interest of business operation for HCNE and LBS.

IV - 15

APPENDIX IV

VALUATION REPORT OF THE TARGET GROUP

As HCNE and LBS are private firms and their shares lack marketability, i.e. they are non-trading and non-marketable, compared to the shares of adopted guideline public companies, an adjustment for the lack of marketability of the equity interest in HCNE and LBS is adopted by the means of a DLOM of 15.80%. The adopted DLOM value is referenced from ''Stout Restricted Stock Study Companion Guide 2019'' published by Stout Risius Ross, LLC.

In addition, the valuation considers that there is a controlling equity interest in both HCNE and LBS. Therefore, this factor of control must be accounted for by applying a control premium of 25.00%. The adopted value for the control premium is suggested by the following academic paper, ''Value of Corporate Control: Some International Evidence'' by Paul Hanouna, Atulya Sarin, and Alan C. Shapiro.

Based on the hypothetic management account1 of HCNE, the above calculation and adjustment is tabulated as follows:

Size-adjusted PEM:

15.92x

Earnings of business operation of HCNE1:

RMB37,050,000

100% equity interest of business operation in HCNE:

RMB589,811,000

Adjusted 90% equity interest in HCNE:

RMB557,910,000

Notes:

  1. HCNE is a newly founded company, however, as it incorporated the Lithium Battery Business that operated for years, we assume as if HCNE had operated the Lithium Battery Business for years.
  2. The working capital is not transferred to and assumed by the buyer of HCNE as per the transaction agreement specified, therefore, we have deducted the working capital from the 100% equity interest of business operation in HCNE for the comparison purpose to the consideration.

3. As there is a two-yearrent-free term in the transaction agreement specifying that the seller will give a two-yearrent-free period to the buyer for the continued use of some plants and facilities where the Lithium Battery Business operates, we have added back the value of the two-year rents for the comparison purpose to the consideration.

Notes:

1. The non-operating asset is the net amount due from related companies.

In the valuation task of SCP, cost approach has been adopted by taking into consideration of the key assumptions and basis below:

  1. The historical earnings in the past three years are negative and there is no anticipated turnaround.
  2. The net asset value is negative as at the Valuation Date.
  3. The fair values of all the assets deducted by the fair values of all the liabilities of SCP are used to derive the fair value of net asset that attributable to the shareholder, which equals to the fair value of the equity interest of SCP.

Based on the management account of SCP, the net asset value as at the Valuation Date of SCP is approximately (RMB3,000,000), therefore the fair value of the 90% equity interest in SCP is determined to be zero as its net asset value is negative.

IV - 17

APPENDIX IV

VALUATION REPORT OF THE TARGET GROUP

The fair value of the equity interest in the Target Company is the sum of the fair values of the equity interest in the three companies, SCP, LBS and HCNE. Hence, the 90% equity interest of the Target Company is derived to be approximately RMB582,200,000.

12. VALUATION COMMENTS

As part of our analysis, we have reviewed the financial and business information, such as project documents and other pertinent data concerning the Target Company, provided to us by the Target Company and the Company. We have assumed the accuracy of, and have relied on, such information to a considerable extent in arriving at our opinion of value.

We confirm that we have made relevant searches and enquiries and have obtained such further information as is considered necessary for the purpose of this valuation.

The conclusion of value is based on generally accepted valuation procedures and practices that rely substantially on the use of numerous assumptions and the consideration of many uncertainties, not all of which can be easily quantified or ascertained. Further, while the assumptions and consideration of such matters are regarded by us to be reasonable, they are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of the Target Company, the Company, and Ascent Partners.

13. RISK FACTORS

  1. General Economic, Political, and Social Considerations

Due to the uncertainties in economic situation, there is no guarantee that the expected financial performance will materialize. Any changes in global political, economic and social conditions, laws, regulations and policies may have significant impacts on the projections of the future income of the Target Company. None of these changes can be foreseen with certainty.

  1. Inflation

The concurrent loosening of monetary policies by the central banks in many developed and developing countries pose a significant risk of inflation, which will erode the profitability of the Target Company.

  1. Company Specific Risk

The performance of the Target Company may be better or worse than the expectation, and the resulting earnings and cash flows can be very different from our estimates. The possibility of severe operational incidence, whether it is exogenous or endogenous, cannot be precluded.

IV - 18

APPENDIX IV

VALUATION REPORT OF THE TARGET GROUP

  1. Technological Changes

Any changes in the technological developments and advancements may have significant impacts on the projections of the future income of the Target Company. To remain competitive in the industry, the Target Company may be required to make substantial capital expenditures to keep up with technological changes.

  1. Concentration Risk

The revenue of the Target Company is heavily dependent on a single business segment. There is no guarantee that this business relationship can be maintained and that the products of the Target Company will remain popular.

14. OPINION OF VALUE

Based on the result of our investigations and analyses outlined in this report, we are of the opinion that the fair value of the 90% equity interest in the Target Company, adjusted by certain terms specified in the transaction agreement for the purpose of comparison to the consideration, as at the Valuation Date, free from any encumbrances, is RMB582,200,000
