The abovementioned financial statements have been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers Zhongtian LLP and PricewaterhouseCoopers, and standard unqualified auditor's reports have been issued.

For the financial statements and audit reports of the Company for the year 2020 audited in accordance with the China Accounting Standards and the International Financial Reporting Standards, please refer to the Company's A Share Annual Report and H Share Annual Report for the year 2020, respectively.

5. THE PROFIT DISTRIBUTION PLAN OF THE COMPANY FOR THE YEAR 2020

Under the China Accounting Standards and the International Financial Reporting Standards respectively, the Company's audited consolidated net profit attributable to shareholders of the parent company for 2020 was RMB143,099 million, and the net profit of the parent company was RMB58,680 million.

Pursuant to the Company Law, the Articles of Association and other relevant requirements, the Company shall appropriate 10% of net profit of the parent company under the financial statements prepared in accordance with the China Accounting Standards to the statutory surplus reserve fund. It is also stipulated that the Company no longer needs to make an appropriation to its statutory surplus reserve fund when the cumulative amount of such fund exceeds 50% of its registered capital. As of December 31, 2020, the Company's registered capital was RMB18,280 million and the balance of its statutory surplus reserve fund was RMB9,140 million, which had reached 50% of the registered capital. Therefore, the Company no longer needs to make an appropriation to its statutory surplus reserve fund.

As of December 31, 2020, retained profit of the parent company was RMB121,460 million and RMB120,592 million under the financial statements prepared in accordance with the China Accounting Standards and the International Financial Reporting Standards respectively. The profit available for distribution to shareholders of the Company shall be the lower of the above figures, that is, RMB120,592 million.

(1) Distribution of the 2020 final cash dividend of RMB1.40 (tax inclusive) per share

The Company proposes to distribute the 2020 final cash dividend of RMB1.40 (tax inclusive) per share. Pursuant to the Detailed Rules for Implementation of Share Repurchase by Listed Companies promulgated by the SSE and other applicable regulations, the A Shares in the Company's repurchased securities account (if any) after trading hours on the record date of A Shareholders for the final dividend shall not be entitled to the distribution of final dividend. The amount of share repurchases executed in the year should be regarded as cash dividends and be factored into the computation of the cash dividend payout ratio for the year.

The total amount of the final dividend payment for 2020 is estimated to be RMB25,494 million based on the total share capital of 18,280,241,410 shares less the 70,006,803 A Shares in the repurchased securities account as of December 31, 2020. The Company distributed the 2020 interim dividend of RMB0.80 (tax inclusive) per share, which amounted to RMB14,568 million of actual distributed interim dividend in total. In 2020, the Company also repurchased A Shares in total amount of RMB994 million. After the amount of share repurchases is factored into the computation, the total cash dividends for the year are RMB41,056 million and the cash dividend payout ratio based on consolidated net profit attributable to shareholders of the parent company for the year is 28.7%. The actual total amount of final cash dividend payment will be calculated based on the Actual Number of Shares Entitled to the Dividend Distribution.

(2) Remaining retained profit

After the distribution of the 2020 final cash dividend in accordance with dividend distribution estimates stated above, the remaining retained profit of the parent company is estimated to be RMB95,098 million. The retained profit of the parent company is mainly for the purposes of organic capital accumulation to maintain a reasonable solvency ratio as well as funding for subsidiaries so that they can maintain a reasonable solvency ratio or capital adequacy ratio. The final dividend payment will have no material impact on the Group's solvency margin ratios. After the final dividend payment, the Group's solvency margin ratios will still meet the relevant regulatory requirements. The Company shall withhold enterprise income tax and individual income tax in accordance with relevant laws and regulations.

(3) Time arrangements for dividend distribution

The independent non-executive Directors have conscientiously considered and made independent advice severally to agree with the following resolutions and matters that were considered by the Board during the reporting period: profit distribution, changes in accounting estimates, remuneration of senior management, adjustment to the asset management model of the long-term service plan and basis for drawdown limit, engagement of auditor and determination of its remuneration, recommendation of candidates for directors, appointment of senior management of the Company, extension of term of key employee stock ownership plan and material related party transactions.

All Directors actively attended the Board meetings held in 2020, where the Directors conscientiously reviewed the documents and materials presented, listened to the briefing of the management of the Company regarding the operation and management of the Company, actively participated in discussions and sought information that was required for an informed decision for voting. All Directors were also updated with the latest information about the Company's operation and management and relevant external information timely through the "Correspondence of Directors and Supervisors" on a monthly basis which are sent by the Company, internal publications and analysts' report. Besides, all Directors also kept in touch with the Company by on-site meetings, email or phone, raised relevant questions and asked for relevant materials at any time.

In September 2020, an inspection team consisting of certain Independent Non-executive Directors and certain Supervisors of the Company conducted on-site inspection on the Sichuan branches of Ping An Bank, Ping An Life, Ping An Property & Casualty, Ping An Annuity and Ping An Securities and other subsidiaries. The inspection team took advice and suggestions from the frontline business cadres and staff representatives on the implementation of Company's policies, as well as the Company's business development. Based on the opinions of the grassroots employees, an investigation report thereupon was presented to the management of the Company.

In addition, upon request of the Directors, the management of the Company also reported on the concerns or business developments that attracted Directors' attention at the Board meetings. The above-mentioned measures not only enhanced the transparency of the operation and management of the Company and helped foster a sound communication mechanism between the Board and the management of the Company, but also enabled the Board to make scientific decisions.

All Directors believe that they can flexibly learn the operation and management of the Company in multiple ways and through smooth channels with timely feedback and no obstacles.

IV. OPERATION OF SPECIALIZED COMMITTEES UNDER THE BOARD

The Board has established a total of six specialized committees, that is, the Strategy and Investment Committee, the Audit and Risk Management Committee, the Nomination Committee, the Remuneration Committee, the Related Party Transaction Control Committee and Consumer Rights Protection Committee.
