(1) Main business scope and business operation of the company: the company mainly produces and sells various electro-optical products, as well as auxiliary luminaire series products. Its products mainly include the ordinary bulb, decorative bulb, iodine-tungsten lamp, bromine-tungsten lamp, single-end lamp, automobile lamp, motorcycle lamp, high-tension mercury lamp, high-tension Na lamp, metal halide lamp, T8 and T5 fine-caliber and highly energy-saving fluorescent lamp, compact fluorescent lamp and reflection cup, as well as the accessories mainly for T8 and T5 energy-saving lamps. In 2002, the company has made a constant and fast development in its production and business. Despite of the falling of prices for some products like T8, braking light, turning light and instrument light, because the company has quickened the expansion of its production scale, and strictly controlled its business cost, enlarged the structural regulation of the products, speeded up the investment for “Green Lighting Project”, continuously reduced the product cost, gradually strengthened its market competitive power, maintained its exchange earnings by foreign sales and export, and continued to improve its economic growth speed and benefits. The total bulb output of the year has increased by 15.11% than that of last year, and the gross industrial output value has increased by 19.72%. It has earned over USD 33 million foreign exchange, 20.27% more than last year. Main business income realized is RMB 957 million, increasing by 16.73% than that of last year, and the main business profits is RMB 353.84 million, increasing by 31.03%, and making up 145.61% of the total profits of the company. The company continues to keep the advantageous trend of constant stable increase, and there is no change of its main business compared with last year. 19 (2) Business operation and results of affiliated enterprise controlled and invested by the company: Wuzhang Bulbs Factory, Nanhai, is an affiliated enterprise controlled by the company, with its registered capital of RMB 3 million. It mainly produces ordinary lighting bulbs, motorcycle bulbs and high-pressure mercury bulbs, as well as auxiliary semi products. QL Lamps and Components Limited, Foshan. is the sino-foreign joint venture invested by the company, with the registered capital of USD 1.8 million. It mainly produces special optical sources and lighting fittings such as bromine-tungsten lamp, with total assets of RMB 12 million. Liangke Investment Co., Ltd., Shenzhen, was incorporated in Nov., 2000, with the registered capital of RMB 80 million. Foshan Electrical & Lighting has made investments of RMB 30 million in total, making up 37.5% of the capital stock of such company.

By nearly two year of capital operation, it has achieved a certain results, although it has had a loss of RMB 1.15 million during the report period. All these three enterprises have normal production, standard operation and fine achievements. Besides, the company has also made less investments in China Everbright Bank, Bank of Communications, Fochen Highway in Foshan and Zhujiang Property Management Company in Guangzhou.

Existing operational problems and remedies of the company: the competition in bulb industry is still quite violent. Firstly, enterprises have rushed to cut the price of products, seriously interfering the market, and forcing our company to reduce the price of some products. Secondly, our famous products and their patent packages have been imitated by more and more lawbreaking merchants, making our sales more difficult, and seriously affecting our market sales. Thirdly, because of the rise of prices of fuels, energies and some major materials, the product cost has increased. And, also because the supply of electro-optical products in the domestic market still exceeds the demand, the competition in the market becomes more and more violent. Facing such difficulties, all staff in the company have united together, smoothed away the difficulties, and made all efforts for development and advancing. To outcome these problems, the company shall (i) greatly develop technical innovation, improve the process and production efficiency, reduce the staff and promote the efficiency at the same time, and reduce 20 the production cost of products; (ii) control the purchase of raw materials, choose the most suitable materials, reduce the purchase price of raw materials, quicken the circulation of funds, and improve the use efficiency of funds; (iii) expand the production scale, improve the product quality and strengthen the competitive force. The company will quicken its step to introduce the equipment, produce the new products centering the fine-caliber, highly energy-saving and high-tech T8 fluorescent lamp, make T8 fluorescent lamp as the leading product of the company, and expand the market coverage; and (iv) actively coordinate with the relevant legal departments, and crack down the imitations by laws. Meanwhile, the company will take all effective measures to strengthen the imitation-free ability of its products. (III) Investment of the company. 1. Use of funds raised (1) In the last half of 2000, the company has actually raised RMB 667 million by issuing more shares, and invested in the 9 investment projects disclosed in the Prospectus (except the supplementary current funds). As at Dec. 31, 2002, RMB 534 million has already been invested, with RMB 133 million raised funds remained and deposited in the special account for funds raised by shares established by our company with the Bank of China, Foshan Branch. l The investment projects and use of funds are detailed as follows: Unit: RMB 10,000 Item For short Investment Investment Cumulative Funds not invested subscribed of this term investment 1 T8 19,500 8,932 19,873 -373 2 T5 19,200 832 11,265 7,935 3 Double loop 2,940 930 2,384 556 4 Test center 2,962 1,942 2,998 -36 5 Three kilns 2,920 466 2,036 884 6 Tube-pulling production line 2,944 182 2,026 918 7 Filament and lead 2,950 1,493 3,141 -191 8 Power facilities 2,900 644 2,461 439 9 Environment & fire-fighting 2,800 242 2,762 38 10 Current funds 7575.5 40 4,460 3,115.5 Total 66691.5 15,703 53,406 13,285.5 (2) Progress of investment projects: the projects for T8 energy-saving fluorescent lamps have made the fast progress, with 14 production lines introduced, which will be been put into production all within this year. The company has also introduced two production lines for T5 fluorescent lamps, which have been put into production both. It has also gradually increased the varieties for auxiliary luminaires, and formed the ability of trial production in batch. The supporting projects including the test center for fluorescent lamps, kilns, tube-pulling lines, filaments and leads and power facilities, and auxiliary environmental protection and fire-fighting engineering have largely completed according to the investment plan. 21 The company plans to further introduce two production lines for T5 fluorescent lamps, and has parts of funds unused. It will introduce the equipment and put them into operation as soon as possible in line with the market situation. There is no change in the actual investment projects. 22 (3) Benefits from investment projects: there was three production lines for T8 fluorescent lamps, together with the 14 ones just put into production, there are currently 17 under production, increasing the monthly output of T8 fluorescent lamps 10 million pieces. The monthly output of T5 fluorescent lamps has already reached 500,000 pieces.

(V) Business plan in the new year. (1) Expand the production scale for T8, T5 energy saving lamps, automotive lamps and luminaire, fasten the development, continue to enlarge the production scale, and occupy the dominant position in market competition. 23 (2) Make technical innovation and new product development. The new product development shall be a new growth point for profits of the company, as well as the basic condition for enterprise development. In the new year, the company will speed up the technical innovation, and develop new varieties and new models for fluorescent lamps, fine-caliber energy-saving lamps and luminaire, to suit the demand on the market. Meanwhile, it will strengthen the quality control, constantly improve the equipment and production technology, and steadily promote the production quality. (3) Strengthen the cost control, and improve the market competitive power of products. The company will further perfect and carry out the arrangement for production material consumption, personnel quota, piecework plan and saving plan. It shall control the raw material cost and reduce the consumption. It shall also improve the energy-consuming equipment by reforming and introducing the petroleum gas system, and strengthen the energy equipment and technology, to reduce the consuming costs of water, electricity, fuel and gas. (4) Promote the sales of products. The company will promote the sales by all kinds of measures. First of all, it will develop the secondary market and rural market, and expand the coverage for sales. Secondly, it shall mobilize the activity of dealers, and develop the potentiality of distributors, to guarantee the successful sales of products. Thirdly, the company will broadly promote the brand image of the company by all channels, attend the national lighting exhibitions, to exhibit and publicize the product and image of the company, and promote the sales. While developing the domestic market, it will also export more products and earn more foreign exchanges by making full use of the superior conditions with the accession to WTO. (5) Train and educate the staff members well, and fully mobilize their activity in production. The company will arrange more training for its employees, and improve their professional knowledge, safety awareness and operation skills by training.

(6) Arrange and implement the share incentive funds according to the “Implementation Plan for Share Incentive Funds for Senior and Middle-Rank Management Personnel”, standardize it and carry it in real earnest, stabilize and attract more talents, and promote the long-term steady development of the company. 24 (VI) Influence by the China’s accession to WTO After the accession to WTO, the imported electro-optical products may increase, but will not increase too much due to their high prices. As the electro-optical products produced at home have complete varieties and competitive advantages in price, import products will take a small part, having little influence to the electro-optical industry. However, the accession to WTO will have both advantage and disadvantage to the company. The advantage is that because our company has constantly improved our quality, and has quite complete product varieties and a certain competitive force, it will possibly further expand the exportation based on the good achievements in export during the past years, relieving the situation of domestic products with supply exceeding the supply. The disadvantage is that after the accession to WTO, because the import duties have reduced, more optical products with special purposes abroad will enter into the Chinese market, adversely affecting the company producing the same kinds of products. The antidumping implemented by EU to energy-saving lamps with electronic ballast exported from China has no affection to our product exportation at all.

The consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2002 comprise the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the “Group”). (a) Statement of compliance The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) promulgated by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). IFRS includes International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) and related interpretations. (b) Basis of preparation The consolidated financial statements are prepared on the historical cost basis except that property, plant and equipment were stated at their revalued amount as stated in note 10 and investments held for trading were stated at their fair value. The accounting policies have been consistently applied by the Group. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the year. Actual results could differ from those estimates. (c) Basis of consolidation (i) Subsidiaries Subsidiaries are those enterprises controlled by the Company. Control exists when the Company has the power, directly or indirectly, to govern the financial and operating policies of an enterprise so as to obtain benefits from its activities. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control effectively commences until the date that control ceases. (ii) Associate Associate is an enterprise in which the Group has significant influence, but not control, over the financial and operating policies. The consolidated financial statements include the Group’s share of the total recognised gains and losses of the associate on an equity accounted basis, from the date that significant influence commences until the date that significant influence ceases. When the Group’s share of losses exceeds the carrying amount of the associate, the carrying amount is reduced to nil and recognition of further losses is discontinued except to the extent that the Group has incurred obligations in respect of the associate. 50 Foshan Electrical and Lighting Company Limited Financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2002 1 Significant accounting policies (continued) (c) Basis of consolidation (continued) (iii) Transactions eliminated on consolidation Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealised gains arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Unrealised gains arising from transactions with the associate are eliminated, to the extent of the Group’s interest in the enterprise, against the investment in the associate. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment. (d) Translation of foreign currencies Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to Renminbi Yuan at the foreign exchange rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are translated into Renminbi Yuan at the foreign exchange rates ruling at that date. Foreign exchange differences arising on translation are recognised in the income statement. (e) Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost or valuation (see note 10) less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses (see note 1(l)). The cost of property, plant and equipment constructed by the Group includes the cost of materials, direct labour and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads. When an asset’s carrying amount is increased as a result of a revaluation, the increase is credited directly to equity under the component of revaluation reserve. However, a revaluation increase is recognised as income to the extent that it reverses a revaluation decrease of the same asset previously recognised as an expense. When an asset’s carrying amount is decreased as a result of a revaluation, the decrease is recognised as an expense in the consolidated income statement. However, a revaluation decrease is charged directly against any related revaluation surplus to the extent that the decrease does not exceed the amount held in the revaluation reserve in respect of that same asset. Revaluations are performed periodically to ensure that the carrying amount does not differ materially from that which would be determined using fair value at the balance sheet date. Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the item of property, plant and equipment. All other expenditure is recognised in the income statement as an expense as incurred. 51 Foshan Electrical and Lighting Company Limited Financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2002 1 Significant accounting policies (continued) (e) Property, plant and equipment (continued) Depreciation is charged to the income statement on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives, after taking into account their estimated residual values, of items of property, plant and equipment. The estimated useful lives are as follows: Buildings 20 to 30 years Plant and machinery 3 to 28 years Furniture, fixtures and office equipment 3 to 14 years Motor vehicles 3 to 12 years Assets are depreciated from the date of acquisition or, in respect of internally constructed assets, from the time an asset is completed and ready for its intended use. (f) Lease prepayments Lease prepayments represent land use rights paid to the PRC’s land bureau. Land use rights are carried at cost and amortised on a straight-line basis over the respective periods of the rights which range from 40 years to 50 years. (g) Construction in progress Construction in progress represents properties under construction and equipment purchased prior to installation, which includes construction and acquisition costs, less impairment losses (see note 1(l)). Capitalisation of these costs ceases and the construction in progress is transferred to fixed assets when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the assets for their intended use are completed. No depreciation is provided in respect of construction in progress until it is completed and ready for its intended use. (h) Investments Listed investments held for trading are classified as current assets and are stated at fair value, with any resultant gain or loss recognised in the income statement. Other unlisted investments held by the Group are classified as being available-for-sale and are stated at cost, less provision for impairment losses (see note 1(l)). A provision is made where, in the opinion of management, there is an impairment in the value of an investment. The fair value of investments held for trading is their quoted bid price at the balance sheet date. 52 Foshan Electrical and Lighting Company Limited Financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2002 1 Significant accounting policies (continued) (h) Investments (continued) Investments held for trading and available-for-sale investments are recognised/ derecognised by the Group on the date it commits to purchase/sell the investments. On derecognition, the difference between the net proceeds received or receivable and the carrying amount of the investments are accounted for in the income statement. (i) Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses. The cost of inventories is based on the weighted average principle and includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventories and bringing them to their existing location and condition. In the case of manufactured inventories and work in progress, cost includes an appropriate share of production overheads. (j) Trade and other receivables Trade and other receivables are stated at their cost less allowance for any amounts expected to be irrecoverable. All allowance is provided for based upon the evaluation of the recoverability of these accounts at the balance sheet date. (k) Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and deposits with banks and other financial institutions, maturing within three months. (l) Impairment The carrying amounts of the Group’s assets, other than inventories (see note 1(i)), deferred tax assets (see note 1(o)) and financial assets stated at fair value, are reviewed at each balance sheet date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. An impairment loss is recognised whenever the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in the income statement. (i) Calculation of recoverable amount The recoverable amount of assets is the greater of their net selling price and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. 53 Foshan Electrical and Lighting Company Limited Financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2002 1 Significant accounting policies (continued) (l) Impairment (continued) (ii) Reversals of impairment An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if an impairment loss had been recognised. (m) Provisions A provision is recognised in the balance sheet when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. (n) Dividends Dividends are recognised as a liability in the period in which they are declared. (o) Income tax Income tax on the profit or loss for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognised in the income statement except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly to equity, in which case it is recognised in equity. Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantially enacted at the balance sheet date, and any adjustment of tax payable for previous years. Deferred tax is provided using the balance sheet liability method on all temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. The following temporary differences are not provided for: goodwill not deductible for tax purposes and the initial recognition of assets or liabilities which affect neither accounting nor taxable profit, and the differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they will probably not reversed in the foreseeable future. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantially enacted at the balance sheet date. A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised. 54 Foshan Electrical and Lighting Company Limited Financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2002 1 Significant accounting policies (continued) (p) Revenue recognition In relation to the sale of goods, revenue is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer, and no significant uncertainties remain regarding recovery of the consideration due, associated costs or the possible return of goods. Dividend income is accounted for when the shareholder’s right to receive payment is established. Interest income from bank deposits is accrued on a time-apportioned basis on the principal outstanding and at the rate applicable. (q) Operating lease payments Payments made under operating leases are recognised in the income statement on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. (r) Employee benefits Contributions to defined contribution retirement schemes are recognised as an expense in the income statement as incurred. 2 Revenue The principal activities of the Group are the manufacture and sale of electrical lightings. Revenue represents the invoiced value of goods supplied to customers, net of value added tax. 3 Segment reporting The Group’s profits are almost entirely attributable to its manufacture and sale of electrical lightings in the PRC. Accordingly, no segmental analysis is provided. 4 Other operating income 2002 2001 Rmb Rmb Income from sale of raw materials 568,516 1,895,827 Rental income 268,721 435,322 Gain on disposal of land use rights 4,847,080 - Others 1,723,920 5,152,248 7,408,237 7,483,397 ========== ========== 55 Foshan Electrical and Lighting Company Limited Financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2002 5 Other operating expenses 2002 2001 Rmb Rmb Loss on disposal of property, plant and 9,370,302 1,178,163 equipment Impairment loss on property, plant and equipment - 6,541,558 Loss on disposal of land use right - 2,460,442 Others 2,187,596 1,970,784 11,557,898 12,150,947 ========== ========== 6 Personnel expenses 2002 2001 Rmb Rmb Salaries and staff welfare 113,370,743 82,850,843 Senior management incentive scheme payment (note (i)) 31,012,914 - Contribution to defined contribution plans (note (ii)) 6,021,513 7,030,574 150,405,170 89,881,417 ========== ========== Notes: (i) Pursuant to a resolution passed in the Board Meeting held on 25 March 2002 and the approval by the shareholders in the Annual General Meeting (“AGM”) held on 16 May 2002, the Company established a Senior Management Incentive Scheme (the “Scheme”). According to the Scheme, incentive payments are to be made to the senior management when the Company’s return on net assets for the year is 6% or above, which is measured based on the Company’s annual net profit determined under PRC accounting standards. No incentive payments would be made if the return on net assets is less than 6%. The Scheme was effective from 2001 retrospectively. In 2002, provisions for incentive payments of RMB14 million and RMB17 million have been made in relation to the years of 2001 and 2002, respectively, and the amounts of provisions are included in 2002 administrative expenses. 56 Foshan Electrical and Lighting Company Limited Financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2002 6 Personnel expenses Notes: (continued) (ii) Certain employees of the Group participate in a defined contribution retirement scheme operated by the PRC municipal government.

The surplus on revaluation was taken directly to revaluation surplus. In accordance with IAS 16, subsequent to this revaluation, which was based on depreciated replacement costs, property, plant and equipment are carried at revalued amount, being the fair value at the date of the revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Revaluation is performed periodically to ensure that the carrying amount does not differ materially from that which would be determined using fair value at the balance sheet date. Based on a revaluation performed by Directors as of 31 December 2002, which was based on depreciated replacement costs, the carrying value of property, plant and equipment did not differ materially from their fair value. Impairment In 2001, certain machinery became idle due to technological change. After assessing the recoverable amount of such machinery, impairment losses of Rmb6,541,558 were made. No impairment loss was made in 2002. 11 Lease prepayments Rmb Cost: Balance at 1 January 2002 112,334,733 Additions 24,525,456 Disposal (17,914,368) Balance at 31 December 2002 118,945,821 ----------------- Amortisation: Balance at 1 January 2002 8,006,696 Amortisation charge for the year 2,097,849 Written back on disposal (3,152,762) Balance at 31 December 2002 6,951,783 ----------------- Net book value: At 31 December 2002 111,994,038 ========== At 31 December 2001 104,328,037 ========== 61 Foshan Electrical and Lighting Company Limited Financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2002 12 Construction in progress Plant and Office Motor Buildings machinery equipment vehicles Total Rmb Rmb Rmb Rmb Rmb At 1 January 2002 6,499,334 61,816,486 -

All shares were issued and have a par value of Rmb 1. Revaluation surplus The revaluation surplus relates to the revaluation of certain property, plant and equipment on 30 April 1993 (see note 10) which is not distributable. Distributable retained earnings According to the Company’s Articles of Association, the retained earnings available for distribution are the lower of the amount determined under PRC accounting standards and amount determined under IFRS. As of 31 December 2002, the retained earnings available for distribution were Rmb72,319,396 (2001: Rmb69,253,148), after taking into account of the current year’s proposed final dividend and the transfers to other reserves. Statutory surplus reserve According to the current PRC Company Law and the Company’s articles of association, the Company is required to transfer 10% of its profit after taxation to statutory surplus reserve until the surplus reserve balance reaches 50% of the registered capital. For the purpose of calculating the transfer to reserve, the profit after taxation shall be the amount determined under PRC accounting standards. The transfer to this reserve has to be made before distribution of dividend to shareholders. 65 Foshan Electrical and Lighting Company Limited Financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2002 Statutory surplus reserve can be used to make good previous years’ losses, if any, and for capitalisation issue provided that the balance after such issue is not less than 25% of the registered capital. 66 Foshan Electrical and Lighting Company Limited Financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2002 19 Capital and reserves (continued) Statutory staff welfare reserve According to the current PRC Company Law and the Company’s articles of association, the Company is required to transfer 5% to 15% (at the discretion of the Board of Directors) of its profit after taxation (determined under PRC accounting standards) to its statutory staff welfare reserve. The statutory staff welfare reserve can only be used for the collective benefits of the Company’s employees such as the construction of dormitories, canteen and other staff welfare factilities. The reserve forms part of the shareholders’ equity as individual employees can only use these facilities, the title of which will remain with the Company. The transfer to this reserve must be made before distribution of dividend to shareholders. The Directors have resolved to transfer 10% (2001: 5%) of the current year’s profit to this reserve on 26 March 2003. Discretionary surplus reserve The usage of this reserve is similar to that of statutory surplus reserve. The transfer to this reserve must be made out of its profit after taxation (determined under PRC accounting standards), but before distribution of dividend to shareholders. The Directors have resolved to transfer 5% (2001: Nil) of the current year’s profit to this reserve on 26 March 2003. Dividend (a) The following dividend has not been provided for in the financial statements: 2002 2001 Rmb Rmb Proposed final dividend of Rmb0.42 per ordinary share (2001: Rmb0.4) 150,548,269 143,379,304 ========= ========= Pursuant to a resolution passed at the Directors’ meeting held on 26 March 2003, a final dividend of Rmb0.42 per ordinary share totalling Rmb150,548,269 will be payable to shareholders, subject to the approval of the shareholders at the Company’s 14th Annual General Meeting.

Financial liabilities of the Group principally include trade and other payables and accruals. Accounting policies for financial assets and liabilities are set out in note 1. (a) Credit risk Credit risk represents the accounting loss that would be recognised at the reporting date if counterparties failed to perform completely as contracted. The Group does not have significant exposure to any individual customer or counterparty. To reduce exposure to credit risk, the Group performs ongoing credit evaluations of the financial condition of its customers but generally does not require collateral. The Group deposits substantially all the cash and cash equivalents with the four largest state-owned banks of the PRC. The Group is exposed to credit-related losses in the event of non-performance by counterparties to financial instruments but, based on the Group’s credit assessment and the past repayment records of the counterparties, management does not expect any material counterparty to fail to meet its obligations. At balance sheet date there were no significant concentrations of credit risk. The maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of each financial asset in the balance sheet. (b) Foreign currency risk The Group incurs foreign currency risk on certain trade receivables of Rmb28,243,928 (2001: Rmb27,351,991) and cash and cash equivalents of Rmb20,819,370 (2001: Rmb37,701,271) that are denominated in United States dollars. Fluctuation of the exchange rate of United States dollars against Renminbi Yuan will affect the Group’s financial position and results of operations. 69 Foshan Electrical and Lighting Company Limited Financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2002 21 Financial instruments and concentration of risks (continued) (c) Fair value The following disclosure of the estimated fair value of financial instruments is made in accordance with the requirements of IAS 32 and IAS 39. Fair value estimates, methods and assumptions, set forth below for the Group’s financial instruments, are made to comply with the requirements of IAS 32 and IAS 39, and should be read in conjunction with the Group’s consolidated financial statements and related notes. The estimated fair value amounts have been determined by the Group using market information and valuation methodologies considered appropriate. However, considerable judgment is required to interpret market data to develop the estimates of fair values. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Group could realised in a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. The following summarise the major methods and assumptions used in estimating the fair values of the Group’s financial instruments. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, deposits and other receivables, trade and other payables and accruals approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair values of the Group’s listed equity investments are estimated by referring to the market prices obtained from the relevant stock exchanges. There are no quoted market prices for unlisted equity investments. Accordingly, a reasonable estimate of fair value could not be made without incurring excessive costs. However, provision for impairment losses of Rmb11,850,000 (2001: Rmb8,850,000) was made at 31 December 2002 (see note 14). 22 Commitments (a) Capital expenditure commitments As at 31 December 2002, the Group had capital expenditure commitments authorised and contracted for but not provided for in the financial statements amounting to approximately Rmb24,957,416 (2001: Rmb48,471,000). (b) Operating lease payments Minimum lease payments under non-cancellable operating lease are payable as follows: 2002 2001 Rmb Rmb Less than one year 1,169,000 3,129,200 Between one and five years 4,676,000 4,676,000 More than five years 17,535,000 23,704,000 23,380,000 31,509,200 ========== ========== 70 Foshan Electrical and Lighting Company Limited Financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2002 22 Commitments (continued) (b) Operating lease payments (continued) The Group leases a land use right under operating lease.
