New major risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 90% of Chinese stocks, typically moving 8.5% 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 Risks Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (8.5% average weekly change). Earnings have declined by 14% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Unstable dividend paying track record with dividend experiencing an annual drop of over 20% in the past. Large one-off items impacting financial results. Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (6.3% net profit margin). New Risk • Aug 23
New minor risk - Earnings quality The company has large one-off items impacting its financial results. One-off items were 22% of the size of the rest of the company's trailing 12-month earnings before tax. This is considered a minor risk. One-off items are incomes or expenses that the company does not expect to repeat in future periods. Examples include profits from the sale of a business or expenses from a restructuring or legal settlements. If the company's reported statutory earnings include a large proportion of one-off items it means they may be an unreliable indicator of its true business performance as the earnings were skewed by these incomes or expenses. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Earnings have declined by 14% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Unstable dividend paying track record with dividend experiencing an annual drop of over 20% in the past. Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (8.8% average weekly change). Large one-off items impacting financial results. Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (6.3% net profit margin). Reported Earnings • Aug 15

Dividend reduced to CN¥0.10 Dividend of CN¥0.10 is 33% lower than last year. Ex-date: 6th June 2024 Payment date: 6th June 2024 Dividend yield will be 0.8%, which is lower than the industry average of 1.2%. Sustainability & Growth Dividend is covered by both earnings (84% earnings payout ratio) and cash flows (34% cash payout ratio). The dividend has decreased over the past 10 years, indicating a lack of growth and stability in payments. The company's earnings per share (EPS) would need to decline by 6.1% to shift the payout ratio to a potentially unsustainable range, which is less than the 19% EPS decline seen over the last 5 years.
