VII. Report of the Board of Directors (I) Production and business operation 1. Look back on the business operation of the company during the report period (1) Overall business operation during the report period 20 Facing the increasingly violent competition on the electro-optical markets both at home and abroad, as well as the rise in price of various raw materials, the Board of Direcotrs of FSL focused on the long-term development of the enterprise and the interests of all shareholders, gave full play to its advantages, and carried out a series of powerful measures including the strengthened management, expanded production scale, reformed marketing concept and perfected layout of the industrial base to guarantee the constant fast development of the production and business operation of the company, to further improve its market competitive force, and to achieve the considerable economic benefits. In 2005, the company has made 977 million bulbs in total, increasing by 1.0% than that of last year. The main business income has reached RMB 1214 million, basically same with that of last year, and the sales from export has been USD 48 million. Moreover, the company has realized the total profits of RMB 267 million, 8.08% less than that of last year, the net profits of RMB 220 million, dropping by 5.14%, and the income per share after tax of RMB 0.61. The drop of profits during the report period is largely due to the rise in price of raw materials and fuels and the revaluation of CNY. (2) Existing advantages and difficulties, and the stable profit-earning ability a. Advantages As the leading enterprise in the domestic electro-optical industry, FSL has the outstanding comprehensive advantages especially in funds, personnel, management and technology, as well as the strong key competitive force. By enlarging its investment on the production base in 2005, the company has not only improved its production ability, but also created the conditions for its strategic target of redoubling its production and sales within five years. b. Difficulties Because of the influence to the export in the electro-optical industry by the international environmental restrictions and the revaluation of CNY, the disorderly competition on the domestic market has become more and more violent, thus lowering the profit rate of the electro-optical products. The rise in price of raw materials and fuels and the increase of labor costs have also brought pressure to the main business costs of the enterprise. c. Despite of the above pressures, the electro-optical industry, as the everyday consumables, is still of huge potentiality in its development based on the progress of economic society in China, the improvement of people’s living standard and the support of the national policies. Therefore, there will be the broad space and stability for the business and profit-earning ability of the enterprise in the future. 21 (3) Main suppliers and clients: The purchase amount of the company from the top five suppliers is RMB 133 million, making up 21.81% of the total purchase amount, and the sales amount to the top five clients is RMB 164 million, making up 13.96% of the total sales. (4) There is no significant change on the assets composition of the company during the report period compared with that of last year. (5) There is no significant change on the main financial data of the company during the report period compared with that of last year. (6) There is no significant change on the cash flow composition of the company during the report period compared with that of last year, nor significant difference of net profits during the report period. (7) Business operation and results of main holding and equity-participating enterprises Business operation and results of main holding and equity-participating enterprises: QL Lamps and Components Limited, Foshan is a Sino-foreign joint venture held by FSL, in which FSL holds 40% of its shares. The joint venture, with the registered capital of USD 1.8 million, mainly produces special optical sources such as bromine-tungsten lamps and lighting accessories. FSL Modern Lighting Co., Ltd. was established in the last half of 2004 with the registered capital of RMB 5 million, including RMB 4.5 million invested by FSL, making up 90% of the total capital stock. It mainly produces and sells lighting products and accessories. Chansheng Electronic Ballasts Co., Ltd., Foshan, a Sino-foreign joint venture established in 2003 with the registered capital of RMB 1 million, including 75% of capital stock from FSL, mainly produces and sells electronic ballasts and electronic transformers. Foshan QL Electrical (Gaoming) Co., Ltd. is a Sino-foreign joint venture founded in Oct., 2005 with the registered capital of RMB 60 million, including 70% contributed by FSL, which mainly produces and sells electro-optical products, lamps and related spare parts. All these four enterprises are under normal production, standard operation and with fine results. Besides, the company has also made investments in China Everbright Bank, Bank of Communications, Fochen Highway in Foshan, Liangke Investment Co., Ltd., Shenzhen and Zhujiang Property Management Company in Guangzhou with minority shares. All these enterprises are of standard management, fast business development and fine benefits, and have given the considerable investment return to the company based on their actual operations. 22 2. Prospect for the future (1) Possible influence by the industrial development trend and the coming market competition pattern. a. The increasingly violent competition in the domestic electro-optical industry nowadays has increased the business expenses of the electro-optical enterprises to a great extent, and thus gradually lowered the average industrial profit rate. However, it is still of huge potentiality in its development based on the progress of economic society in China, the improvement of people’s living standard and the support of the national policies. Therefore, there will be the broad space and stability for the business and profit-earning ability of the enterprise in the future. Therefore, FSL will make use of leading position in this industry and its brand superiority as the “Lamp King in China”, integrate its industrial resources, expand the main industry, carry out the large-scale production, strengthen the internal management, reduce the costs and improve its profit-earning ability. b. Seizing the golden opportunity when the environmental restriction on the export market and the revaluation of CNY are pounding at the small and medium-size enterprises, FSL will give full play to its superiorities as a large enterprise of great advantages, take an active part in the competition on the international market, establish the well-known national brand, attempt to expand its shares on the export market without loosing the existing foundation, and propel the enterprise forward to a broader development space. (2) Work scheme of 2006 The company will keep on the fast development in 2006, realize its strategic target steadily by strengthening its internal management, rationalizing its strategic layout and fully improving its key competitive force, and further expand its export sales while solidifying its leading position in the domestic elector-optical industry. The work program of the company in 2006: a. Greatly promote the precision management, solidify the management foundation, continuously improve the management level of the enterprise, and promote its overall operating efficiency. b. Construct the production base in Gaoming, implement its strategic balance, expand the production capacity, speed up the market response and enlarge the market occupation of its products. c. Maintain the large-scale production of the enterprise and give it full play, integrate the internal resources of the enterprise, focus on the sharing of resources, reduce the operating costs and improve its profit-earning ability. d. Further regulate the product structure, greatly develop and make the product of high added value, and improve the profit-earning ability of such products. 23 e. Establish the brand superiority, strengthen the brand construction, enlarge its influence and recognition, and promote the fast and health development of the company. f. Continuously tap the market potentialities, and open up the sales space. g. Continue to perfect the corporate administrative structure, standardize the operation, constantly improve the management level, and give the reliable guarantee for the interests of the masses of investors and other interested parties. (3) Risks with disadvantageous influences on the future development strategy and business target of the company, and the corresponding measures: We assumed that there would be neither significant change on the state laws and regulations and the relevant industrial policies, nor significant change on the macro environment for the steady development of the national economy, or major change on the electro-optical industrial market environment, nor force majeure event or unforeseeable factor that may adversely and significantly affect the business result of the company and cause the serious losses when making the future prospect and new-year business plan of the company. The main risks confronted by the company in the future shall include: a. Market risk The increasingly violent competition on the domestic electro-optical industry certainly will force up the business expenses of such enterprises and lower their average profit rate. For this reason, the company will further strengthen its internal management, reduce the costs, expand the major industry and carry out the large-scale production, and try its best to open up the Level-II and Level-III markets, so as to relieve the enterprise from the risk, and expand the space for its existence and development. b. Investment risk As the company will keep on a considerably fast development in 2006, it is important to increase more capital investment. Therefore, the company will further control the decision -making process for investment, set up the alarm system for risks, carry out the advance investigation, in-process supervision and post evaluation, relieve the enterprise from the investment risk, and guarantee the legal rights and interests of the shareholders. c. Product quality risk The company uses the leading technologies and equipment both from home and abroad, and possesses the matured technology and proper process. It always pays major attention to the product quality, and executes the quality standard complying with or even superior to the national or international standards. However, as the low-price consumption goods, the electro –optical products are controlled under the strict environmental requirements. Thus, the company will persist in the strict quality management, perfect its quality control system to guarantee its compliance, and maintain the high prestige of the company on the market. 24 (II) Investment of the company. 1. Use of funds raised In the last half of 2000, the company has actually raised RMB 667 million by issuing more shares (A share), and invested in the 9 investment projects disclosed in the Prospectus (except the current funds). As at Dec. 31, 2005, RMB 667 million has already been invested, making up 100% of the total funds, with all raised funds used out. As the major investment projects, there are currently 23 production lines for T8 fluorescent lamps, with 22 (including the existing 3 lines for T8) and the 4 production lines for T5 fluorescent lamps already under normal production. The auxiliary projects such as the fluorescent lamp test center, the kilns, tube-pulling lines, filaments and leads, power facilities and environmental and fire-fighting facilities have all completed as per the investment plan, some even overfulfilled the investment plan. The company can make 15 million T8 fluorescent lamps and 1.3 million T5 fluorescent lamps each month. Because the fluorescent lamps have found a good market, the T8 and T5 fluorescent lamps made by us still have the demand exceeding the supply. The company has sold 140.1 million T8 and T5 fluorescent lamps in 2005, and has earned the profits basically same with that in the same period last year. The detailed investment projects and the progress for use of funds are shown as follows: Unit: RMB 10,000 Total funds raised 66,691 Total funds raised and used this year 3,247 Accumulative total funds already used 66,691 Committed project Planned Project Actual Proceeds Planned schedule/estimated investment changed/not investment proceeds met/not T8 19,500 N 22,618 6,946 Y T5 19,200 N 14,544 676 Y Double loop 2,940 N 2,700 — Y Test center 2,962 N 3,314 — Y Three kilns 2,920 N 3,332 — Y Tube-pulling production line 2,944 N 2,345 — Y Filament and lead 2,950 N 4,806 — Y Power facilities 2,900 N 2880 — Y Environment & fire fight facilities 2,800 N 2,863 — Y Current funds 7,575 N 7,289 — Y Total 66,691 ---- 66,691 7,622 Reason for failing to meet the planning schedule and proceeds (item by item) 25 2.

The consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2005 comprise the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the “Group”). (a) Statement of compliance The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and its interpretations adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). (b) Basis of preparation The consolidated financial statements are presented in Renminbi Yuan. They are prepared on the historical cost basis as modified by the revaluation of property, plant and equipment (see note 10) and the remeasurement of investment held for trading (see note 13), which are stated at their fair value. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of polices and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. Judgments made by management in the application of IFRS that have significant effect on the consolidated financial statements and estimates with a significant risk of material adjustment in the next year are discussed in note 27. The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently by the Group and are consistent with those used in the previous years. 39 1 Significant accounting policies (continued) (c) Basis of consolidation (i) Subsidiaries Subsidiaries are those entities controlled by the Company. Control exists when the Company has the power, directly or indirectly, to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity 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 commences until the date that control ceases. (ii) Transactions eliminated on consolidation Intragroup balances and transactions and any unrealised gains and losses or income and expenses arising from intragroup transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. (d) Translation of foreign currencies Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to Renminbi Yuan at the foreign exchange rates ruling at the date of transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are translated to Renminbi Yuan at the foreign exchange rates ruling at that date. Foreign exchange differences arising on translation are recognised in the consolidated statement of income other than those eligible for capitalisation as construction in progress. (e) Property, plant and equipment (i) 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 self-constructed items of property, plant and equipment includes the cost of materials, direct labor, the initial estimate, where relevant, of the costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located, and an appropriate proportion of production overheads. When an asset of property, plant and equipment’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 statement of income. 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. 40 1 Significant accounting policies (continued) (e) Property, plant and equipment (continued) Where parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items of property, plant and equipment. (ii) The Group recognises in the carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment the cost of replacing part of such an item when that cost is incurred if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other costs are recognised in the consolidated statement of income as an expense as incurred. (iii) Depreciation is charged to the consolidated statement of income on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives, after taking into account their estimated residual values, of each part of an item of property, plant and equipment. The estimated useful lives are as follows: Buildings 3 to 25 years Plant and machinery 2 to 8 years Furniture, fixtures and office equipment 2 to 8 years Motor vehicles 5 to 10 years Assets are depreciated from the date of acquisition or, in respect of internally constructed assets, from the time an asset is substantially completed and ready for its intended use. (iv) Gains or losses arising from the retirement or disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment, are determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised as income or expense in the consolidated statement of income on the date of retirement or disposal. On disposal of a revalued asset, the related revaluation surplus is transferred from revaluation reserve to retained earnings. (f) Lease prepayments Lease prepayments represent land use rights paid to the PRC’s land bureau. Land use rights are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses (refer to note 1(l)) and amortised on a straight-line basis over the respective periods of the rights which range from 40 years to 50 years. 41 1 Significant accounting policies (continued) (g) Construction in progress Construction in progress represents buildings, various plant and equipment under construction and pending installation, and is stated at costs less impairment losses (see note 1(l)). Cost comprises direct costs for construction as well as interest incurred directly contributable to the construction or acquisition during the periods of construction or installation. Capitalisation of these costs ceases and the construction in progress is transferred to property, plant and equipment 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 Investments in equity securities held for trading are classified as current assets and are initially stated at fair value. At each balance sheet date, the fair value is remeasured, with any resultant gain or loss recognised in the consolidated statement of income. Debt securities that the Group has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity securities. Held-to-maturity securities are initially recognised in the consolidated balance sheet at fair value plus transaction costs. Subsequently, they are stated at amortised cost less impairment losses (see note 1(l)). Investments in equity securities that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured are recognised in the consolidated balance sheet at cost less impairment losses (see note 1(1)). An impairment loss is made where, in the opinion of management, the carrying amount of the investments exceeds its recoverable amount. Investments are recognised/derecognised on the day that the Group commits to purchase/sell the investments or they expire. (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 based on normal operating capacity. (j) Trade and other receivables Trade and other receivables are initially recognised at fair value and thereafter stated at amortised cost less impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts (see note 1(l)). 42 1 Significant accounting policies (continued) (k) Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprises cash balances and deposits with banks and other financial institutions with an original maturity of three months or less. (l) Impairment The carrying amounts of the Group’s assets, other than inventories (see note 1(i)), deferred tax assets (see note 1(o)), 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 consolidated statement of income. Impairment losses recognised in respect of cash generating units are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to cash generating units (group of units) and then, to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the unit (group of units) on a pro rata basis. (i) Calculation of recoverable amount The recoverable amount of the Group’s investments in held-to-maturity securities and receivables carried at amortised cost is calculated at the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate (i.e., the effective interest rate computed at initial recognition of these financial assets). The recoverable amount of other 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. (ii) Reversals of impairment An impairment loss in respect of a held-to-maturity security or receivables is reversed if the subsequent increase in recoverable amount can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised. In respect of other assets, 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 no impairment loss had been recognised. 43 1 Significant accounting policies (continued) (m) Provisions A provision is recognised in the consolidated balance sheet when the Group has a present 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. If the effect is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. (n) Dividends Dividends are recognised as a liability in the period in which they are declared or approved. (o) Income tax Income tax expense on the consolidated statement of income for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognised in the consolidated statement of income 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 the tax rates enacted or substantially enacted at the balance sheet date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years. Deferred tax is provided using the balance sheet liability method, providing for 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, the initial recognition of assets or liabilities that affect neither accounting nor taxable profit, and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they will probably not reverse 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. (p) Revenue recognition (i) Goods sold Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised in the consolidated statement of income when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer. No revenue is recognised if there are significant uncertainties regarding recovery of the consideration due, associated costs or the possible return of goods also continuing management involvement with the goods. 44 1 Significant accounting policies (continued) (q) Expenses (i) Operating lease payments Payments made under operating leases are recognised in the consolidated statement of income on a straight-line basis over the term of the leases. (ii) Net financing costs Net financing costs comprise interest payable on borrowings calculated using the effective interest rate method, interest receivable on funds invested, dividend income, foreign exchange gains and losses that are recognised in the consolidated statement of income, except to the extent that interest payable on borrowings are capitalised as being directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset which necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use. Dividend income is recognised in the consolidated statement of income on the date the entity’s right to receive payments is established which in the case of listed securities is usually the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recognised in the consolidated statement of income as it accrues, using the effective interest rate method. (r) Employee benefits Pursuant to the relevant laws and regulations in the PRC, the Group joined a defined contribution retirement scheme for the employees arranged by a governmental organisation. The Group entities make contributions to the retirement scheme at the applicable rates based on the employees’salaries.

The surplus on revaluation was taken directly to revaluation surplus. In accordance with IAS 16, subsequent to these revaluations, 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 as of 31 December 2003, which was based on depreciated replacement costs, the carrying value of property, plant and equipment did not differ materially from their fair value. 51 11 Lease prepayments 2005 2004 Rmb Rmb Cost: Balance at 1 January 178,591,876 123,063,160 Additions 14,420,761 55,528,716 Balance at 31 December 193,012,637 178,591,876 ----------------- ----------------- Amortisation: Balance at 1 January 11,869,368 9,394,765 Amortisation charge for the year 2,384,553 2,474,603 Balance at 31 December 14,253,921 11,869,368 ----------------- ----------------- Net book value: At 31 December 178,758,716 166,722,508 ========== ========== At 1 January 166,722,508 113,668,395 ========== ========== 52 12 Construction in progress Furniture, fixtures Plant and and office Motor Buildings machinery equipment vehicles Total Rmb Rmb Rmb Rmb Rmb At 1 January 2004 373,589 55,725,835 - - 56,099,424 Additions 47,458,875 91,804,260 400,000 1,008,000 140,671,135 Transfer to property, Plant and equipment (note 10) (4,684,966) (72,415,138) - (1,008,000) (78,108,104) At 31 December 2004 43,147,498 75,114,957 400,000 - 118,662,455 ========== ========= ======== ========= ========== At 1 January 2005 43,147,498 75,114,957 400,000 - 118,662,455 Additions 49,781,018 87,283,799 - 79,800 137,144,617 Transfer to property, plant and equipment (note 10) (5,559,898) (110,939,477) (388,920) - (116,888,295) At 31 December 2005 87,368,618 51,459,279 11,080 79,800 138,918,777 ========== ========== ========= ========= ========== 13 Investments 2005 2004 Rmb Rmb Non-current investments Unlisted equity securities, at cost 148,009,248 127,873,326 Less: Provision for impairment losses (9,560,000) (13,560,000) 138,449,248 114,313,326 ========== ========== Current investments Equity securities held for trading, at fair value 27,785,300 17,755,765 Debt securities held-to-maturity, at amortised cost - 99,462,100 27,785,300 117,217,865 ========== ========== 53 14 Deferred tax assets Recognised deferred tax assets Deferred tax assets are attributable to the following: 2005 2004 Rmb Rmb Property, plant and equipment 7,505,913 4,145,256 Investments 1,722,938 1,493,115 Trade and other receivables 1,606,469 2,978,811 Inventories - 26,923 Deferred tax assets 10,835,320 8,644,105 ========== ========== Movement in temporary differences during the year At Recognised At Recognised At 31 1 January in statement 1 January in statement December 2004 of income 2005 of income 2005 Rmb Rmb Rmb Rmb Rmb Property, plant and equipment 4,845,483 (700,227) 4,145,256 3,360,657 7,505,913 Investments 1,726,091 (232,976) 1,493,115 229,823 1,722,938 Trade and other receivables 2,452,335 526,476 2,978,811 (1,372,342) 1,606,469 Inventories 1,742,801 (1,715,878) 26,923 (26,923) - 10,766,710 (2,122,605) 8,644,105 2,191,215 10,835,320 ========= ======== ========== ========== ========= (note 9(a)) 54 15 Inventories 2005 2004 Rmb Rmb Raw materials 45,719,896 41,326,704 Work in progress 84,814,700 66,825,257 Finished goods 67,980,307 54,184,959 Spare parts and consumables 22,632 31,470 198,537,535 162,368,390 ========== ========== There is no provision for diminution in value of inventories at 31 December 2005.

(b) 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 the amount determined under IFRS. As of 31 December 2005, the retained earnings available for distribution were Rmb89,737,875 (2004: Rmb78,731,629), after taking into account of the current year’s proposed final dividend and the transfers to other reserves. (c) 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. 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. (d) 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 10% (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 facilities. 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% (2004: 10%) of the current year’s profit after taxation (determined under PRC accounting standards) to this reserve on 21 March 2006. 58 20 Reserves (continued) (e) 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% (2004: 5%) of the current year’s profit after taxation (determined under PRC accounting standards) to this reserve on 21 March 2006.

These risks are limited by the Group’s financial management policies and practices described below. (a) Credit risk The Group’s credit risk is primarily attributable to trade and other receivables and cash and cash equivalents. 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 consolidated balance sheet. (b) Liquidity risk The Group maintains sufficient reserves of cash and readily realisable marketable securities to meet its liquidity requirement in the short and longer term. The Group has a total balance of cash and marketable securities of approximately Rmb956 million as of 31 December 2005 (2004: Rmb1,020 million). 60 22 Financial instruments and concentration of risks (continued) (c) Foreign currency risk The Group incurs foreign currency risk on trade receivables of Rmb41,552,157 (2004: Rmb44,704,430), trade payables of Rmb2,030,392 (2004: nil), other payables of Rmb7,093,983 (2004: nil), and cash and cash equivalents of Rmb47,376,898 (2004: Rmb54,368,466) 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. (d) Fair value 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, prepayments and other receivables, debt securities held-to-maturity, trade and other payables and accruals, and salaries, bonus and staff welfare payables approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair values of the Group’s listed investments in equity securities held for trading are estimated by referring to the market prices obtained from the relevant stock exchanges. There are no quoted market prices for unlisted equity securities investments. Accordingly, a reasonable estimate of fair value could not be made without incurring excessive costs. However, provision for impairment losses of Rmb9,560,000 (2004: Rmb13,560,000) was made at 31 December 2005 (see note 13). 23 Commitments (a) Capital expenditure commitments At 31 December 2005 and 2004, capital commitments for the Group are as follows: 2005 2004 Rmb Rmb Authorised and contracted for 47,631,000 16,465,000 Authorised but not contracted for 16,000 20,178,000 47,647,000 36,643,000 ========== ========== 61 23 Commitments (continued) (b) Operating lease payments Minimum lease payments under non-cancellable operating lease are payable as follows: 2005 2004 Rmb Rmb Within one year 1,965,000 1,781,000 Between one and five years 6,254,000 6,512,000 After five years 14,028,000 15,197,000 22,247,000 23,490,000 ========== ========== The Group leases a land use right under operating lease. The lease typically runs for an initial period of thirty years, with an option to renew the lease after that date. Fixed annual lease payments are payable over the lease terms. During the year ended 31 December 2005, Rmb2,131,527 was recognised as an expense in the consolidated statement of income in respect of operating leases (2004: Rmb3,727,387). 24 Earnings per share (a) Basic earnings per share The calculation of basic earnings per share at 31 December 2005 was based on the profit for the year attributable to equity shareholders of the Company of Rmb213,939,222 (2004: Rmb228,925,136) and the weighted average number of shares in issue during the year ended 31 December 2005 of 358,448,259 (2004: 358,448,259). (b) Diluted earnings per share No diluted earnings per share is calculated as there are no dilutive potential shares during 2004 and 2005. 62 25 Related party transactions (a) The Group had the following material transactions during the year with Prosperity Lamps and Components Limited and its affiliated companies. Prosperity Lamps and Components Limited is a company in which Mr. Alfred K.N.

(b) At 31 December 2005 and 2004, the balances with related parties were as follows: 2005 2004 RMB RMB Amount due from Prosperity Lamps and Components Limited and its affiliated companies 16,136,598 11,202,031 ========= ========= 63 26 Group entities (a) Details of the subsidiaries, which are established and operating in the PRC, are as follows: Percentage of Name of company equity held Principal activity QL Lamps and Components 40% Manufacture of Limited (“QLLC”) (note b) lighting products ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? 75% Manufacture of lighting products ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? 90% Manufacture of lighting products ? ? ? ? 禅昌(高明)? ? ? ? 70% Manufacture of lighting products (b) As the Group has effective control of QLLC through the power of governing the financial and operating policies of the economic activity under a contractual arrangement, QLLC has been accounted for as a subsidiary. 27 Accounting estimates and judgements The Group’s financial condition and results of operations are sensitive to accounting methods, assumptions and estimates that underlie the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. The Group bases the assumptions and estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that the Group believes to be reasonable and which form the basis for making judgements about matters that are not readily apparent from other sources. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates as facts, circumstances and conditions change. The selection of critical accounting policies, the judgements and other uncertainties affecting application of those policies and the sensitivity of reported results to changes in conditions and assumptions are factors to be considered when reviewing the consolidated financial statements. The principal accounting policies are set forth in Note 1. The Group believes the following critical accounting policies involve the most significant judgements and estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. 64 27 Accounting estimates and judgements (continued) (a) Impairment loss of long-lived assets If circumstances indicate that the net book value of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable, this asset may be considered “impaired”, and an impairment loss may be recognised in accordance with IAS 36 “Impairment of Assets”. The carrying amounts of long-lived assets are reviewed periodically in order to assess whether the recoverable amounts have declined below the carrying amounts. These assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their recorded carrying amounts may not be recoverable. When such a decline has occurred, the carrying amount is reduced to recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater of the net selling price and the value in use. It is difficult to precisely estimate selling price because quoted market prices for the Group’s assets are not readily available. In determining the value in use, expected cash flows generated by the asset are discounted to their present value, which requires significant judgement relating to level of sale volume, selling price and amount of operating costs. The Group uses all readily available information in determining an amount that is a reasonable approximation of recoverable amount, including estimates based on reasonable and supportable assumptions and projections of sale volume, selling price and amount of operating costs. (b) Depreciation Property, plant and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, after taking into account the estimated residual value. The Group reviews the estimated useful lives of the assets regularly in order to determine the amount of depreciation expense to be recorded during any reporting period. The useful lives are based on the Group’s historical experience with similar assets and taking into account anticipated technological changes. The depreciation expense for future periods is adjusted if there are significant changes from previous estimates. (c) Impairment for bad and doubtful debts The Group estimates impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts resulting from the inability of the customers to make the required payments. The Group bases the estimates on the aging of the trade receivables balances, customer credit-worthiness, and historical write-off experience. If the financial condition of the customers were to deteriorate, actual write-offs would be higher than estimated. 65 28 Possible impact of amendments, new standards and interpretations issued but not yet effective for the annual accounting period ended 31 December 2005 Up to the date of issue of these consolidated financial statements, the IASB has issued the following amendments, new standards and interpretations which are not yet effective for the annual accounting period ended 31 December 2005 and which have not been adopted in these consolidated financial statements: Effective for accounting period beginning on or after IFRS 6, Exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources 1 January 2006 IFRS 7, Financial instruments: disclosures 1 January 2007 IFRIC 4, Determining whether an arrangement contains a lease 1 January 2006 IFRIC 5, Rights to interests arising from decommissioning, 1 January 2006 restoration environmental rehabilitation funds IFRIC 6, Liabilities arising from participating in a specific market – 1 December 2005 Waste electrical and electronic equipment IFRIC 7, Applying the restatement approach under IAS 29, Financial 1 March 2006 reporting in hyperinflationary economies IFRIC 8, Scope of IFRS 2 1 May 2006 Amendment to IAS 1, Presentation of financial statements: capital 1 January 2007 disclosures Amendment to IAS 19, Employee benefits – Actuarial Gains and 1 January 2006 Losses, Group Plans and Disclosures Amendment to IAS 21, Net investment in a foreign operation 1 January 2006 66 28 Possible impact of amendments, new standards and interpretations issued but not yet effective for the annual accounting period ended 31 December 2005 (continued) Amendments to IAS 39, Financial instruments: Recognition and measurement: - Cash flow hedge accounting of forecast intragroup transactions 1 January 2006 - The fair value option 1 January 2006 - Financial guarantee contracts 1 January 2006 Amendments to IFRS 1, First-time Adoption of International 1 January 2006 Financial Reporting Standards The Group is in the process of making an assessment of what the impact of these amendments, new standards and new interpretations is expected to be in the period of initial application. So far the Group believes that the adoption of IFRS 6, IFRIC 4, IFRIC 5, IFRIC6, IFRIC 7, IFRIC 8, and the amendments to IAS 19, IAS 21 and IFRS 1 are not applicable to any of the Group’s operations and that the adoption of the rest of the above amendments, new standards and new interpretations is unlikely to have a significant impact on the Group’s results of operations and financial position. 67 Net impact of IFRS adjustments on the consolidated results and shareholders’equity prepared under PRC accounting regulations Consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2005 (Expressed in Renminbi Yuan) Profit for the year attributable to equity shareholders of the Equity attributable to equity Company shareholders of the Company 2005 2004 2005 2004 As reported in statutory financial statements prepared under PRC accounting regulations 219,583,403 231,479,787 2,304,699,123 2,255,936,502 Adjustments to align with IFRS (i) Deferred taxation 2,191,215 (2,122,605) 10,835,320 8,644,105 (ii) Net unrealised (loss)/gain of investments held for trading carried at fair value (9,069,778) (535,771) - 9,069,778 (iii) Government grants 1,000,000 - - - (iv) Write off debts forgiven 234,382 103,725 - - (v) Others - - (1,763,395) (1,763,395) As reported pursuant to IFRS 213,939,222 228,925,136 2,313,771,048 2,271,886,990 ========== ========== =========== =========== 68 XI.
