For the six months, the company expected that the group's net profit attributable to the Shareholders will decrease by approximately 40% to 45% for the six months ended 30 June 2022 as compared to the six months ended 30 June 2021 due to the following reasons: The Group recorded a foreign exchange gain of RMB 27.5 million during the six months ended 30 June 2022, which mainly related to the translation of other long-term payable from United States Dollar ('USD') to Meticais ('MZN') as well as the exchange difference incurred on intercompany balances between various subsidiaries within the Group with different functional currencies.

Operating cash flow to total debt ratio: 20% This is considered a major risk. If the company's operating cash flows are too small relative to the size of their debt, it increases their balance sheet risk. The company has less cash from operations to cover its expenses from servicing large debt and it increases the risk of liquidity issues. It also extends the time it would take for the company to pay back the debt in full, meaning it may not be able to easily pay it all off in a distress scenario. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (20% operating cash flow to total debt). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (18% average weekly change). Minor Risk Paying a dividend despite having no free cash flows.공시 • Aug 10West China Cement Limited to Report First Half, 2023 Results on Aug 21, 2023West China Cement Limited announced that they will report first half, 2023 results on Aug 21, 2023New Risk • Aug 10New major risk - Share price stabilityThe company's share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 90% of German stocks, typically moving 12% a week. This is considered a major risk. Share price volatility increases the risk of potential losses in the short-term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. It may also indicate the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (12% average weekly change). Minor Risks High level of debt (67% net debt to equity).

공시 • Aug 16West China Cement Limited Provides Earnings Guidance for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2022West China Cement Limited provided earnings guidance for the six months ended June 30, 2022. For the six months, the company expected that the group's net profit attributable to the Shareholders will decrease by approximately 40% to 45% for the six months ended 30 June 2022 as compared to the six months ended 30 June 2021 due to the following reasons: The Group recorded a foreign exchange gain of RMB 27.5 million during the six months ended 30 June 2022, which mainly related to the translation of other long-term payable from United States Dollar ('USD') to Meticais ('MZN') as well as the exchange difference incurred on intercompany balances between various subsidiaries within the Group with different functional currencies. This is compared with a foreign exchange gain of the Group of RMB 347.3 million for the six months ended 30 June 2021; The Group recorded a significant gain on disposal of an associate for the six months ended 30 June 2021 in the amount of RMB 79.3 million. The Group currently does not expect to record similar significant gain on disposal of an associate for the six months ended 30 June 2022; and There was an increase of finance costs of RMB 73.3 million during the six months ended 30 June 2022 mainly arising from the five-year senior notes with an aggregated principal amount of USD 600,000,000 due in 2026 (the 'Senior Notes') issued by the Company in July 2021.

New Risk • Aug 22New major risk - Financial positionThe company's debt is not well covered by operating cash flow. Operating cash flow to total debt ratio: 20% This is considered a major risk. If the company's operating cash flows are too small relative to the size of their debt, it increases their balance sheet risk. The company has less cash from operations to cover its expenses from servicing large debt and it increases the risk of liquidity issues. It also extends the time it would take for the company to pay back the debt in full, meaning it may not be able to easily pay it all off in a distress scenario. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (20% operating cash flow to total debt). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (18% average weekly change). Minor Risk Paying a dividend despite having no free cash flows.

It is more volatile than 90% of German stocks, typically moving 12% a week. This is considered a major risk. Share price volatility increases the risk of potential losses in the short-term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks.

Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (12% average weekly change).
