NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2004 (All amounts are stated in Renminbi thousand Yuan unless otherwise stated) 1 CORPORATE INFORMATION Nanjing Putian Telecommunications Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) was established in May 1997 in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”). The principal activities of the Company and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) are the manufacture and marketing of telecommunication equipment, electric appliances and other related accessories in the PRC. Particulars of the Company's principal subsidiaries, joint ventures and associated companies are shown in note 26. All the operating assets and substantially all the sales of the Group are based in the PRC. China Putian Information Industry Corporation, which holds the Company’s 115,000,000 state-owned shares, or 53.49% of the Company’s total share capital, is regarded as the Company’s ultimate holding company (the “Ultimate Holding Company”). 2 PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (a) Basis of preparation The consolidated financial statements have been prepared based on the management accounts of the Company, its subsidiaries, joint ventures and associated companies. Those management accounts are prepared in accordance with PRC accounting standards, which differ in certain respects from International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). These financial statements have incorporated adjustments made to the management accounts in order to conform with IFRS. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the use of 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 reporting period. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results ultimately may differ from those estimates. In preparation of the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2004 , the Group early adopted the IFRS 3 Business Combination, IAS 36 (revised 2004) Impairment of Assets and IAS 38 (revised 2004) Intangible Assets since 1 January 2004 These early adoptions have no significant impact on 2003 financial statements. (b) Group accounting (1) Subsidiaries Subsidiaries are those entities in which the Group has an interest of more than one half of the voting rights or otherwise has power to govern the financial and operating policies. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group and are no longer consolidated from the date that control ceases. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between group companies are eliminated; unrealised losses are also eliminated unless cost cannot be recovered. Where necessary, accounting policies for subsidiaries have been changed to ensure consistency with those adopted by the Group. The purchase method of accounting is used to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries -36- Nanjing Putian Telecommunications Co., Ltd. 2004 Annual Report by the Group. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange, plus costs directly attributable to the acquisition. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any minority interest. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the Group’s share of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognised directly in the income statement. (1) Associated companies Investments in associated companies are accounted for by the equity method of accounting. Under this method the Company’s share of the post-acquisition profits or losses of associated companies is recognised in the income statement and its share of post-acquisition movements in reserves is recognised in reserves. The cumulative post-acquisition movements are adjusted against the cost of the investment. Associated companies are entities over which the Group generally has between 20% and 50% of the voting rights, or over which the Group has significant influence, but which it does not control. Unrealised gains on transactions between the Group and its associated companies are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the associated companies; unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. When the Group’s share of losses in an associated company equals or exceeds its interest in the associated company, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless the Group has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the associated company. (2) Joint ventures The Group’s interests in jointly controlled entities are accounted for by proportionate consolidation. The Group combines its share of the joint ventures’ individual income and expenses, assets and liabilities and cash flows on a line-by-line basis with similar items in the Group’s financial statements. The Group recognises the portion of gains or losses on the sale of assets by the Group to the joint venture that it is attributable to the other venturers. The Group does not recognise its share of profits or losses from the joint venture that result from the purchase of assets by the Group from the joint venture until it resells the assets to an independent party. However, if a loss on the transaction provides evidence of a reduction in the net realisable value of current assets or an impairment loss, the loss is recognised immediately. (c) Foreign currency translation (1) Reporting currency The Company uses the Renminbi (“Rmb”) as reporting currency. The consolidated financial statements of the Group are presented in Renminbi thousand. (2) Transactions and balances Foreign currency transactions are translated into Rmb using the exchange rates stipulated by the People’s Bank of China prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are translated into Renminbi at the exchange rates stipulated by the People’s Bank of China at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising from these translations are recognised in the income statement. (3) Foreign entities Income statements and cash flows of foreign entities are translated into the Group’s reporting currency at average exchange rates for the year and their balance sheets are -37- Nanjing Putian Telecommunications Co., Ltd. 2004 Annual Report translated at the exchange rates ruling on 31 December. Exchange differences arising from the net investment in foreign entities are taken to shareholders’ equity. When a foreign entity is sold, such exchange differences are recognised in the income statement as part of the gain or loss on sale. (d) Investment The Group classified its investments in debt and equity securities into the following categories: trading, held-to-maturity and available-for-sale. The classification is dependent on the purpose for which the investments were acquired. Management determines the classification of its investments at the time of the purchase and re-evaluates such designation on a regular basis. Investments that are acquired principally for the purpose of generating a profit from short-term fluctuations in price are classified as trading investments and included in current assets; for the purpose of these financial statements short term is defined as 3 months. Investments with a fixed maturity that management has the intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity and are included in non-current assets, except for maturities within 12 months from the balance sheet date which are classified as current assets; during the period the Group did not hold any investments in this category. Investments intended to be held for an indefinite period of time, which may be sold in response to needs for liquidity or changes in interest rates, are classified as available-for-sale; and are included in non-current assets unless management has the express intention of holding the investment for less than 12 months from the balance sheet date or unless they will need to be sold to raise operating capital, in which case they are included in current assets. Purchases and sales of investments are recognised on the trade date, which is the date that the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Cost of purchase includes transaction costs. Trading and available-for-sale investments are subsequently carried at fair value. Held-to-maturity investments are carried at amortised cost using the effective yield method. Realised and unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of trading investments are included in the income statement in the period in which they arise. Unrealised gain and losses arising from changes in the fair value of securities classified as available-for-sale are recognised in equity. The fair value of investments are based on quoted bid prices or amounts derived from cash flow models. Fair values for unlisted equity securities are estimated using applicable price/earnings or price/cash flow ratios refined to reflect the specific circumstances of the issuer. Equity securities for which fair values cannot be measured reliably are recognised at cost less impairment. When securities classified as available-for-sale are sold or impaired, the accumulated fair value adjustments are included in the income statement as gains and losses from investment securities. (e) Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method to write off the cost of each asset to their residual values over their estimated useful lives as follows: Buildings 15 - 35 years Plant and machinery 10 - 15 years Furniture, fixtures and office equipment 4 - 11 years Motor vehicles 6 - 8 years When the carrying amount of an asset is greater than its estimated recoverable amount, it is written down immediately to its recoverable amount. Gains and losses on disposal of property, plant and equipment are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount and are included in operating profit. Interest costs on borrowings to finance the construction of property, plant and equipment -38- Nanjing Putian Telecommunications Co., Ltd. 2004 Annual Report are capitalised during the period of time that is required to complete and prepare the asset for its intended use. Other borrowing costs are expensed. Repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred. The cost of major renovations is included in the carrying amount of the asset when it is probable that future economic benefits in excess of the originally assessed standard of performance of the existing asset will flow to the Group. Major renovations are depreciated over the remaining useful life of the related asset. (f) Construction in progress Construction in progress represents capital assets under construction or being installed and is stated at cost. Cost comprises cost of equipment, construction costs and other direct costs including interest expense arising from borrowings to finance the projects during the construction period. On completion of construction, the cost is transferred to property, plant and equipment. (g) Land use rights Land use rights are stated at cost less amortization. Amortization is calculated on the straight line method to write off the cost of land use rights over their use period. (h) Intangible assets Intangible assets refer to software expenditures and proprietary technologies. Software expenditures represent the cost of software rights. They are stated at cost and amortized on the straight-line basis over their use period from the date they are put into use. Proprietary technologies are initially recorded at cost. Proprietary technologies are amortized on the straight-line basis over their useful lives. (i) Impairment of assets Assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment. Assets that are subject to amortisation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash-generating units). (j) Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined using the weighted average method. The cost of finished goods and work in progress comprises raw materials, direct labour, other direct costs and related production overheads (based on normal operating capacity) but excludes borrowing costs. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the costs of completion and selling expenses. (k) Trade receivables Trade receivables are carried at original invoice amount less provision made for impairment of these receivables. A provision for impairment of trade receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all -39- Nanjing Putian Telecommunications Co., Ltd. 2004 Annual Report amounts due according to the original terms of receivables. (l) Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents are carried in the balance sheet at cost. For the purpose of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks and other short-term highly liquid investments. (m) Borrowings Borrowings are recognised initially at the proceeds received, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at amortised cost using the effective yield method; any difference between proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in the income statement over the period of the borrowings. (n) Pension costs The Group participates in a government defined contribution retirement scheme. Under the scheme, retirement benefits of existing and retired employees are guaranteed by the local Unified Retirement Fund and the Group has no further obligations beyond the annual contributions. The Group's contributions are charged to the income statement in the period to which they relate. (o) Deferred income taxes PRC income tax is provided for based on the assessable profits computed in accordance with PRC tax regulations and tax rates applicable to the Group. Deferred income tax is provided, using the liability method, for all temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying values for financial reporting purposes. Currently enacted tax rates are used to determine deferred income tax. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised. (p) Revenue recognition Revenue comprises the invoiced value for the sale of goods and services net of value-added tax, rebates and discounts, and after eliminating sales within the Group. Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods are transferred to the buyer. Revenue from rendering of services is based on the stage of completion determined by reference to services performed to date as a percentage of total services to be performed. Other revenues earned by the Group are recognised on the following bases: • Interest income - on an effective yield basis. • Subsidy income - when the right to receive payment is approved by the government. (q) Dividends Dividends are recorded in the Group’s financial statements in the period in which they are approved by the Group’s shareholders. (r) Financial instruments Financial instruments carried in the balance sheet include cash and bank balances, -40- Nanjing Putian Telecommunications Co., Ltd. 2004 Annual Report investments in associated companies, receivables and prepayments, payables and borrowings. The particular recognition methods adopted are disclosed in the individual policy statements associated with each item. -41- Nanjing Putian Telecommunications Co., Ltd. 2004 Annual Report 3 SALES AND COST OF SALES Sales and cost of sales include the following: Self manufactured Purchased Self telecommunication telecommunication manufactured and and electronics Sub-contracting electrical products electrical products products services 2004 Sales 425,274 319,068 96,574 2,327 Cost of sales (315,176) (293,247) (77,891) (3,013)      Gross profit 110,098 25,821 18,683 (686)      2003 Sales 405,282 322,226 81,858 2,480 Cost of sales (279,857) (285,213) (63,141) (2,307)      Gross profit 125,425 37,013 18,717 173      The Group is organized into one main business segment, telecommunication and related products.
