Interim Report 2020

REPORT ON REVIEW OF CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF

YUE YUEN INDUSTRIAL (HOLDINGS) LIMITED 裕元工業(集團)有限公司

(incorporated in Bermuda with limited liability)

Introduction

We have reviewed the condensed consolidated financial statements of Yue Yuen Industrial (Holdings) Limited (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the "Group") set out on pages 5 to 29, which comprise the condensed consolidated statement of financial position as of June 30, 2020 and the related condensed consolidated income statement, statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the six-month period then ended, and certain explanatory notes. The Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited require the preparation of a report on interim financial information to be in compliance with the relevant provisions thereof and Hong Kong Accounting Standard 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" ("HKAS 34") issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants ("HKICPA"). The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with HKAS 34. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these condensed consolidated financial statements based on our review, and to report our conclusion solely to you, as a body, in accordance with our agreed terms of engagement, and for no other purpose. We do not assume responsibility towards or accept liability to any other person for the contents of this report.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Review Engagements 2410 "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the HKICPA. A review of these condensed consolidated financial statements consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the condensed consolidated financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with HKAS 34.

  2. The Group accounted for the acquisition of additional interests in subsidiaries and partial disposal of interests in subsidiaries without losing control as equity transactions and the difference between the carrying amount of the non-controlling interests and the fair value of the consideration paid or received, after re-attribution of relevant reserves, was recognized in "other reserve".
  3. According to the relevant laws in the People's Republic of China (the "PRC"), the subsidiaries of the Company established in the PRC are required to transfer at least 10% of their net profits after taxation, as determined under the PRC accounting regulations, to a statutory reserve fund until the reserve balance reaches 50% of their registered capital. The transfer to this reserve must be made before the distribution of a dividend to equity owners. The statutory reserve fund can be used to offset the accumulated losses, if any, or to increase the capital of those subsidiaries.
    According to the laws and regulations of Republic of China ("Taiwan"), the subsidiaries of the Company incorporated in Taiwan are required to set aside 10% of their statutory net income each year to statutory reserve fund, until the reserve balance has reached the paid-in share capital amount of those subsidiaries. The statutory reserve fund may be used to offset the accumulated losses of those subsidiaries. If those subsidiaries have no accumulated losses and the reserve has exceeded 25% of those subsidiaries' paid-in share capital, the excess may be transferred to the capital of those subsidiaries or distributed in cash.

Interim Report 2020

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BASIS OF PREPARATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Hong Kong Accounting Standard 34 ("HKAS 34") "Interim Financial Reporting" issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants ("HKICPA") as well as with the applicable disclosure requirements of Appendix 16 to the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited.

1A. SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AND TRANSACTIONS IN THE CURRENT INTERIM PERIOD

During the current interim period, the Group faced headwinds caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. This started with temporary factory shutdowns in the PRC and Southeast Asian countries due to lockdowns and other social distancing measures imposed by local governments upon the outbreak of the pandemic. The unprecedented situation hindered the operating efficiencies of the Group's manufacturing business and also led to temporary supply chain disruptions. In reaction to the challenging operating environment, the Group further adjusted its capacity allocations to strengthen its flexibility to cater to changing customer demand and closed its manufacturing facilities in Hubei, the PRC during the interim period. The Group also temporarily adjusted its manufacturing capacity in Southeast Asia in response to ongoing uncertainty and low visibility on customer demand. This led to an increase in expenses including severance costs of approximately US$84 million (included in other expenses) due to closure of manufacturing facilities and factory adjustments.

For Retailing Business (as defined in Note 3), the Group temporarily suspended the operations of majority of its retail stores in the PRC in the first quarter of 2020 in an effort to contain the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, leading to reduction in revenue and gross profit.

In addition, the Group adopted a more prudent approach when evaluating capital expenditure projects during the interim period to safeguard its cash flow, while imposing cost control measures, to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 pandemic.

2. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for certain properties and financial instruments, which are measured at revalued amounts or fair values, as appropriate.

Other than changes in accounting policies resulting from application of amendments to Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards ("HKFRSs"), the accounting policies applied and methods of computation used in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2020 are the same as those presented in the Group's annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019.

2. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Application of amendments to HKFRSs

In the current interim period, the Group has applied the Amendments to References to the Conceptual Framework in HKFRS Standards and the following amendments to HKFRSs issued by the HKICPA, for the first time, which are mandatory effective for the annual period beginning on or after January 1, 2020 for the preparation of the Group's condensed consolidated financial statements:

Amendments to HKAS 1 and HKAS 8

Definition of Material

Amendments to HKFRS 3

Definition of a Business

Amendments to HKFRS 9,

Interest Rate Benchmark Reform

HKAS 39 and HKFRS 7

Except as described below, the application of the Amendments to References to the Conceptual Framework in HKFRS Standards and the amendments to HKFRSs in the current period has had no material impact on the Group's financial positions and performance for the current and prior periods and/ or on the disclosures set out in these condensed consolidated financial statements.

Impacts of application on Amendments to HKAS 1 and HKAS 8 "Definition of Material"

The amendments provide a new definition of material that states "information is material if omitting, misstating or obscuring it could reasonably be expected to influence decisions that the primary users of general purpose financial statements make on the basis of those financial statements, which provide financial information about a specific reporting entity". The amendments also clarify that materiality depends on the nature or magnitude of information, either individually or in combination with other information, in the context of the financial statements taken as a whole.

The application of the amendments in the current period had no impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements. Changes in presentation and disclosures on the application of the amendments, if any, will be reflected on the consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2020.

9. MOVEMENTS IN INVESTMENT PROPERTIES AND PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

During the current interim period, the Group recognized right-of-use assets amounting to US$55,043,000 (six months ended June 30, 2019: US$68,736,000).

During the current interim period, certain retail stores were not available for use in February 2020 as a result of closure of shopping malls. The Group had to temporarily close its retail stores in order to contain the spread of COVID-19. Lessors of the relevant retail stores provided rent concessions to the Group through rent reductions ranging from 50% to 100% over one to three months. The changes in lease payments due to rent concessions constitute lease modifications. During the current interim period, reduction of the Group's lease liabilities of US$12,546,000 and a corresponding adjustment of the same amount to the right-of-use assets were derecognized.

At the end of the current interim period, the Group had contracted for the future lease payments for retail stores amounting to US$2,905,000 (December 31, 2019: nil).

11. TRADE AND OTHER RECEIVABLES

The Group allows credit periods ranging from 30 days to 90 days which are agreed with each of its trade customers.

BUSINESS REVIEW

Results

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Group recorded revenue of US$4,085.6 million, representing a decrease of 19.4%, compared with the corresponding period of last year. The loss attributable to owners of the Company was US$136.8 million, compared to a profit attributable to owners of the Company of US$165.9 million recorded for the corresponding period of last year. The basic loss per share for the first half of 2020 was 8.49 US cents, compared to the basic earnings per share of 10.28 US cents for the corresponding period of last year.

Recurring Loss/Profit Attributable to Owners of the Company

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Group recognized a non-recurring loss of US$13.1 million, which included a loss of US$21.9 million due to fair value changes on financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL"), as well as an impairment loss of US$9.0 million on the interest in an associate. These losses were partly offset by a one-off gain of US$15.7 million on the partial disposal of an interest in a joint venture. By contrast, for the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Group recognized a non-recurring profit of US$20.3 million, which included a net gain of US$19.1 million from the disposal of Texas Clothing Holding Corp. and together with its subsidiaries (the "TCHC Group"), and a gain of US$1.8 million due to fair value changes on financial instruments at FVTPL. Excluding all items of non-recurring nature, the recurring loss for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was US$123.6 million, compared to a recurring profit of US$145.6 million for the corresponding period of last year.

In addition to the analysis above, one-off charges on factory adjustments, together with the cost related to idle capacity in the manufacturing segment, also constituted a significant portion of the loss for the period under review.

OPERATIONS

General Overview

Yue Yuen is the world's largest manufacturer of athletic, athleisure, casual and outdoor footwear with a diversified portfolio of brand customers and production sites. The Group's production capacity is widely recognized for its responsiveness, flexibility, innovation, design and development capabilities, and superior quality.

In the first half of 2020, the Group faced headwinds caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. This started with temporary factory shutdowns in China and Southeast Asian countries due to lockdowns and other social distancing measures imposed by local governments upon the outbreak of the pandemic. The unprecedented situation hindered the operating efficiencies of the Group's manufacturing segment and also led to temporary supply chain disruptions. Following this were delayed shipments, reduced and cancelled order books from customers in response to lower consumer demand resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.

In reaction to the challenging operating environment, the Group further adjusted its capacity allocations to strengthen its flexibility to cater to changing customer demand and closed its manufacturing facilities in Hubei, China during the first half of 2020. It also temporarily adjusted its manufacturing capacity in Southeast Asia in response to ongoing uncertainty and low visibility on customer demand. This led to a surge in one-off charges arising from such adjustments. In addition, the Group adopted a more prudent approach when evaluating capital expenditure projects during the first half of 2020 to safeguard its cash flow, while imposing cost control measures, to mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Total Revenue by Product Category

In the six months ended June 30, 2020, revenue attributed to footwear manufacturing activity (including athletic shoes, casual/outdoor shoes and sports sandals) decreased by 16.7% to US$2,240.8 million, compared with the corresponding period of last year. The volume of shoes shipped decreased by 20.4% to 129.9 million pairs. The decrease was mostly due to lower operating efficiency amid delayed shipments, and reduced and cancelled order books from customers in response to lower consumer demand resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. The average selling price increased by 4.6% to US$17.25 per pair, as compared with the same period of last year, which was primarily due to changes in the Group's product portfolio.

The Group's athletic footwear category accounted for 90.1% of footwear manufacturing revenue in the first half of 2020. Casual/outdoor shoes accounted for 8.0% of footwear manufacturing revenue. When considering the Group's consolidated revenue, athletic shoes represented the Group's principal category, accounting for 49.4% of total revenue in the first half of 2020, followed by casual/outdoor shoes, which accounted for 4.4% of total revenue.

Revenue attributed to the Group's manufacturing business (including footwear, as well as soles, components and others) was US$2,418.5 million during the period, representing a decrease of 17.5% as compared to the corresponding period of last year.

Given the uncertainties surrounding the future development of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Group has and will continue to further fine-tune its production capacity and impose strict cost control measures, to pave the way to restore optimal operational efficiency.

Pou Sheng's gross profit margin declined to 30.0% in the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to 34.5% in the same period of last year, which was mainly attributed to increased promotional activities in order to motivate and revive consumer demands following the re-opening of the Group's B&M stores in China after COVID-19 lockdowns.

The Group's total selling and distribution expenses for the first half of 2020 declined to US$480.2 million (first half of 2019: US$622.9 million), equivalent to approximately 11.8% (first half of 2019: 12.3%) of revenue.

Administrative expenses for the first half of 2020 amounted to US$303.0 million (first half of 2019: US$337.2

million), equivalent to approximately 7.4% (first half of 2019: 6.6%) of revenue.

Other expenses for the first half of 2020 surged to US$191.1 million (first half of 2019: US$128.6 million),

equivalent to approximately 4.7% (first half of 2019: 2.5%) of revenue. The increase was mostly attributable to one-off charges arising from factory adjustments on the manufacturing side.

The management will continue to look at ways to improve its efficiency and productivity to counter the significant cost pressures faced by the Group's manufacturing business, as well as the dynamic and uncertain environment faced by its retail business.

Product Development

During the first half of 2020, the Group spent US$95.4 million (first half of 2019: US$101.9 million) on product development, including investments in sampling, technological and digitalized development, as well as production efficiency enhancements.

In addition to this product development work, the Group also cooperates with its customers to seek efficiency improvements in production processes, lead time and to formulate new techniques to produce high-quality footwear, as well as to incorporate innovative and environmental-friendly materials into the design, development and manufacture of its products.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Liquidity, Financial Resources and Capital Structure

The Group's financial position remained solid. As at June 30, 2020, the Group had cash and cash equivalents of US$1,107.4 million (December 31, 2019: US$982.1 million) and total bank and other borrowings of US$2,323.3 million (December 31, 2019: US$2,089.9 million). The Group's gearing ratio (total bank and other borrowings to total equity) was 55.1% (December 31, 2019: 46.1%). As at June 30, 2020, the Group had net borrowing of US$1,215.9 million (December 31, 2019: US$1,107.8 million). As at June 30, 2020, the Group had current assets of US$4,115.8 million (December 31, 2019: US$4,492.7 million) and current liabilities of US$2,342.4 million (December 31, 2019: US$2,459.0 million). The current ratio was 1.8 as at June 30, 2020 (December 31, 2019: 1.8).

The Group has relied to a certain extent on debt financing for its funding requirements. With regard to the choice of debt versus equity financing, which would thus affect its capital structure, the Group will consider the impact on its weighted average cost of capital and its leverage ratio, etc., with an aim of lowering the weighted average cost of capital while maintaining its gearing ratio at a comfortable level. The Group used debt financing mostly by means of bank loans. In terms of the maturity profile of loans, most of the bank loans for the Group's manufacturing business were long-term committed facilities that partly meet the funding needs of its capital expenditures and long-term investments. Short-term revolving loans facilities were also utilized regularly for daily working capital purposes, especially for the Group's retail business. At present, the Group maintains an abundant level of bank facilities to meet working capital needs. As of June 30, 2020, around 58.1% of the Group's total bank and other borrowings were with remaining tenor of over 1 year.

Almost all of the bank borrowings of the Group relating to its manufacturing business are in USD. The majority of the Group's cash surplus in relation to its manufacturing business is held in USD, while some cash is held in local currencies (e.g. VND, IDR, RMB) in various countries where its production facilities are located for daily operation purposes. For the Group's retail business, Pou Sheng's bank and other borrowings and cash balances are held mostly in RMB, which is its functional currency.

The vast majority of the Group's bank and other borrowings were on floating rate basis. A portion of the Group's floating interest rate risk exposure was hedged by interest rate swaps.

FINANCIAL REVIEW (continued)

Capital Expenditure

During the first half of 2020, the capital expenditure for the Group's manufacturing and retail segments were US$107.8 million (first half of 2019: US$133.6 million) and US$23.2 million (first half of 2019: US$42.9 million) respectively. The Group has adopted a disciplined approach to its capital expenditure for its manufacturing business. Some capital expenditure projects, including investments in automation and capacity upgrades, as well as investments in innovation centers for product development and process re-engineering, were postponed in the first half of 2020 to preserve the Group's balance sheet. Other planned investments for the retail business, particularly for the opening of new stores, upgrading existing store formats, and expanding new concept and mega stores to provide a better shopping experience, were also delayed in the first half of 2020 due to the impact of COVID-19 pandemic.

Apart from investments for operation purposes which may be made in the Group's ordinary and usual course of business, the Group presently does not have any plan for any material investments or capital assets.

Contingent Liabilities

The Group had provided guarantees to banks in respect of banking facilities granted to joint ventures and associates, the details of which can be seen in note 18 to the condensed consolidated financial statements in the 2020 interim report of the Company.

Significant Investments and Material Acquisitions/Disposals

There were no significant investments or material acquisitions/disposals during the first half of 2020.

Share of Results of Associates and Joint Ventures

During the first half of 2020, the share of results from associates and joint ventures was a combined profit of US$8.4 million, compared to a combined profit of US$18.4 million in the corresponding period of last year.

Foreign Exchange Exposure

All revenues from the manufacturing business are denominated in US dollars. The majority of material and component costs are paid in US dollars, while expenses incurred locally are paid for in the local currency i.e. wages, utilities and local regulatory fees. A certain portion of IDR exposure is partly hedged with forward contracts.

For the Group's retail business in China, all revenues are denominated in RMB. Correspondingly, all expenses are also denominated in RMB. For the retail business outside China, both revenues and expenses are denominated in local currencies.

Employees

As at June 30, 2020, the Group had approximately 319,000 employees employed across all regions in which it operates, a decrease of 7.0% as compared to 343,000 employees employed as at June 30, 2019. The decrease was mostly attributed to the capacity adjustment amid the unprecedented pandemic. The Group adopts a remuneration system based on an employee's performance throughout the period and prevailing salary levels in the market.

FINANCIAL REVIEW (continued)

Employees (continued)

The Group believes that employees are important assets, and has planned a holistic approach to the recruitment, employment, training and retention of employees.

The Group employs a competitive remuneration scheme and provides comprehensive employee benefits, in line with the relevant laws and regulations applicable to each of its operating locations. It sets aside a certain percentage of profits, according to the annual performance of the Group, as year-end bonuses to reward employees' contributions and work enthusiasm, allowing them to share in its operating results. It also provides insurance plans that are tailor-made to each operating location to reduce the medical expense burden of employees, as well as pension fund contributions in compliance with the laws and regulations of the local jurisdictions in which the Group operates.

The Group regularly provides internal and external training courses at all levels, including new employees training, professional training, management training, environmental safety training and corporate core values training, with the objective of enabling the Group's employees and management to enhance their skills and achieve expertise, as well as to boost their morale.

The social compliance program of the Group's parent, Pou Chen Group has been accredited by the Fair Labor Association (FLA), a non-profit organization dedicated to protecting workers' rights around the world, making the Group the first and only FLA-accredited footwear supplier globally. The accreditation recognized the Group's commitment to globally implement workplace standards; implement a comprehensive system to evaluate and incentivize manufacturing facilities and material suppliers to improve working conditions; invest in a social compliance program, training, and remediation; and improve its transparency in remediating labor violations at its production sites and establish multiple grievance channels.

PROSPECTS

The impact of COVID-19 on the Group's manufacturing business will diminish, but will not disappear in the coming quarters. Global demand is likely to remain subdued and may be further impacted by the recurring waves of COVID-19 infections that force some economies back into lockdowns. There is still great uncertainty around how the COVID-19 pandemic may continue to impact the orders and sales visibility for the Group's manufacturing segment, which will inevitably impact the Group's performance throughout the remainder of 2020. It may take some time for the Group's production to return to normal levels.

There are some signs of retail spending recovering in some markets alongside the reopening of economies and stimulus programs initiated by governments around the globe. However, it is uncertain if this recovery will be sustained and evenly spread to markets in Europe and North America, although recovery may be supported by the resumption of sports leagues such as the NBA and Premier League.

Besides, escalating tensions between the United States and China, as well as the uncertain outcome of the U.S. Presidential election may add more uncertainties. The Group is actively monitoring the macroeconomic and geopolitical situation.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (continued)

PROSPECTS (continued)

In view of the short-term challenges and uncertainties ahead, the Group will continue to proactively monitor the situation and impose strict cost control measures and focus on its cash flow management. The Group will continue to adopt a prudent approach to capital expenditure projects while embarking on the further fine-tuning of its production capacity during the rest of the year.

Once the disruptions caused by COVID-19 have dissipated, the Group will resume its capital expenditure program to diversify capacity allocations between different countries and further accelerate the pace of capacity migration to cost-competitive regions. This will allow the Group to better meet customer demands for flexibility and specific country-of-origin requirements in response to continued U.S. trade tariffs. The Group will also continue to leverage on its core strengths, adaptability and competitive edges to overcome short-term challenges and safeguard its sustainable profitability. This includes investing in and implementing ERP data management systems, such as SAP, in Indonesia and other locations to improve the efficiency of the Group's business processes.

The Group will continue to enhance its product development and innovation capabilities and explore other value-added and margin-accretive opportunities for vertical integration to tap new markets, and to create long-term synergies for its businesses in the future. Over the longer-term, it will continue to proactively adjust its production capacity to cater to the fast-moving market environment and ongoing trends, including increased demand from brand customers for greater versatility, flexibility and faster turnaround time. This includes enabling more flexible set-ups and frequent line change-overs through process re-engineering, increased automation levels, and SAP ERP system implementation to optimize its ongoing smart manufacturing strategy.

Aside from the current short-term challenges, the Group remains optimistic about the long-term growth prospects of its retail business given the increasing health awareness, higher sports participation rates and the growth of the 'athleisure' trend in the Greater China region. Pou Sheng's omni-channel strategy, including leveraging more sports services content, will continue to benefit from the Chinese government's supportive policies, as well as the more mature online shopping habits of Chinese consumers.

Going forward, the Group remains confident that these strategies will enable it to continue providing its brand customers with end-to-end solutions while safeguarding its solid long-term profitability and ability to deliver sustainable returns to shareholders.

    The Company recognizes the importance of attracting talents and retaining employees and the contributions by other eligible participants by providing them with incentives and rewards through granting share-based incentives so as to work towards enhancing the value of the Company and its shares for the benefit of the Company and its shareholders as a whole. The Company believes that this will align their interests with that of the Company. In this connection, the Company has adopted a share option scheme, the details of which are stipulated as follows:
    On May 31, 2019, the Company adopted a new share option scheme (the "Yue Yuen Share Option Scheme") under which the Board may at its discretion grant share options to any eligible participants, including directors and employees of the Group and any advisors, consultants, distributors, contractors, suppliers, agents, customers, business partners, joint venture business partners, promoters, service providers of any member of the Group who the Board considers, in its sole discretion, have contributed or will contribute to the Group.

Any grant of options to a substantial shareholder or an independent non-executive director of the Company, or any of their respective associates, which would result in the shares issued and to be issued upon exercise of all options already granted and to be granted (including options exercised, cancelled or outstanding) to such person in the twelve-month period up to and including the date of such grant, representing in aggregate over 0.1% of the shares of the Company in issue on the date of such grant and having an aggregate value in excess of HK$5 million (equivalent to approximately US$0.6 million), must be approved in advance by the shareholders of the Company.
    The Board will specify the period within which the shares must be taken up under an option at the time of grant and such period shall not expire later than ten years from the date of grant.
    The Board may, at its discretion, specify the minimum period for which an option must be held before it can be exercised at the time of grant.
    A non-refundable consideration of HK$10.00 shall be paid by each grantee on acceptance of the options within 14 days from the date of grant.
    The exercise price shall be determined by the Board, but in any event must not be less than the highest of (i) the closing price of the Company's shares on the date of grant, (ii) the average closing price of the Company's shares for the five business days immediately preceding the date of grant; and (iii) the nominal value of the Company's share.
