NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 30 April 2020

1. BASIS OF PREPARATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants ("HKICPA"). In addition, the consolidated financial statements include applicable disclosures required by the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited and by the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance (the "HKCO").

The measurement basis used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements is the historical cost basis except that biological assets are measured at their fair value less costs to sell, and certain financial instruments that are measured at fair values at the end of each reporting period.

Going concern

For the year ended 30 April 2020, the Group incurred a loss of approximately RMB856,214,000 (2019: approximately RMB645,071,000) and a net cash outflow from operating activities of approximately RMB172,264,000 (2019: approximately RMB54,119,000). As at 30 April 2020, the Group had net current liabilities of approximately RMB230,199,000 (2019: approximately RMB18,705,000). In addition, the Group's convertible notes with principal amount of approximately RMB173,167,000 (equivalents to HK$190,000,000) was matured on 22 August 2019 and together of the accrued interest RMB16,849,000 (equivalents to HK$18,487,000) was not paid as at 30 April 2020. As at 30 April 2020, the Group's bank borrowings of RMB165,000,000 will be due in October 2020.

These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that might cast significant doubt about the Group's ability to continue as going concern and therefore the Group may be unable to realise the Group's liabilities in the normal course of business.

In view of such circumstances, the Directors have given careful consideration to future liquidity and performance of the Group and its available sources of financing in assessing whether the Group will be able to repay the outstanding convertible notes and bank borrowings and be able to finance its future working capital and finance requirements. Certain measures have been and will be taken to manage its liquidity need and to improve its financial position which include, but are not limited to, the following:

  1. Mr. Sun Shao Feng, the chairman, the chief executive officer and executive Director of the Company, is willing to continue to provide financial support to the Group to enable the Group to continue as a going concern;
  2. As at the date of approval of these financial statements, the Group is actively exploring, formulating and negotiating feasible debt restructuring plans with convertible notes holder's representatives;
  3. The Group will contact its current bank partners for bank borrowings renewal;
  4. The Group will seek to obtain any possible financing; and
  5. The Group will implement operation plans to control costs and generate adequate cash flows from the Group's operations.

Having considered the above, the Directors are of the opinion that it is appropriate to prepare the consolidated financial statements of the Group for FY2019/20 on a going concern basis.

7

Should the Group be unable to continue to operate as a going concern, adjustments would have to be made to write down the value of assets to their recoverable amounts, to provide for further liabilities which might arise and to reclassify non-current assets and non-current liabilities as current assets and current liabilities respectively. The effect of these adjustments has not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements.

2. APPLICATION OF NEW AND REVISED HONG KONG FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS ("HKFRSs")

New and amendments to HKFRSs that are mandatorily effective for the current year

The Group has applied the following new and amendments to Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards ("new and amendments to HKFRSs") issued by the HKICPA for the first time in the current year:

HKAS 19 (Amendments)

Plan Amendment, Curtailment or Settlement

HKAS 28 (Amendments)

Long-term Interests in Associates and Joint Ventures

HKFRSs (Amendments)

Annual Improvements to HKFRSs 2015-2017 Cycle

HKFRS 9 (Amendments)

Prepayment Features with Negative Compensation

HKFRS 16

Leases

HK (IFRIC) - Int 23

Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments

Except as described below, the application of the new and amendments to HKFRSs in the current year has had no material impact on the Group's financial positions and performance for the current and prior years and/or on the disclosures set out in these consolidated financial statements.

HKFRS 16 Leases

The Group has applied HKFRS 16 for the first time in the current year. HKFRS 16 superseded HKAS 17 Leases ("HKAS 17"), and the related interpretations.

Definition of a lease

The Group has elected the practical expedient to apply HKFRS 16 to contracts that were previously identified as leases applying HKAS 17 and HK(IFRIC)-Int 4 Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease and not apply this standard to contracts that were not previously identified as containing a lease. Therefore, the Group has not reassessed contracts which already existed prior to the date of initial application.

For contracts entered into or modified on or after 1 May 2019, the Group applies the definition of a lease in accordance with the requirements set out in HKFRS 16 in assessing whether a contract contains a lease.

8

As a lessee

The Group has applied HKFRS 16 retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognised at the date of initial application, 1 May 2019.

As at 1 May 2019, the Group recognised additional lease liabilities and right-of-use assets at amounts equal to the related lease liabilities by applying HKFRS 16.C8(b)(ii) transition. Any difference at the date of initial application is recognised in the opening retained profits and comparative information has not been restated.

When applying the modified retrospective approach under HKFRS 16 at transition, the Group applied the following practical expedients to leases previously classified as operating leases under HKAS 17, on lease-by-lease basis, to the extent relevant to the respective lease contracts:

  1. elected not to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases with lease term ends within 12 months of the date of initial application;
  2. excluded initial direct costs from measuring the right-of-use assets at the date of initial application;
  3. applied a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with a similar remaining terms for similar class of underlying assets in similar economic environment;
  4. relied on the assessment of whether leases are onerous by applying HKAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets as an alternative of impairment review; and
  5. used hindsight based on facts and circumstances as at date of initial application in determining the lease term for the Group's leases with extension and termination options.

When recognising the lease liabilities for leases previously classified as operating leases, the Group has applied incremental borrowing rates of the relevant group entities at the date of initial application. The weighted average lessee's incremental borrowing rate applied is 9.5%.

9

The following table reconciles the operating lease commitments as at 30 April 2019 to the opening balance for lease liabilities recognised as at 1 May 2019:

The application of HKFRS 16 to lease previously classified as operating leases under HKAS 17 resulted in the recognition of right-of-use assets of RMB470,658,000 and lease liabilities of RMB470,658,000 at the initial adoption of HKFRS 16.

For the purpose of reporting cash flows from operating activities under indirect method for the year ended 30 April 2020, movements in working capital have been computed based on opening consolidated statement of financial position as at 1 April 2019 as disclosed above.

The Directors anticipate that the application of the new and amendments to HKFRSs will have no material impact on the consolidated financial statements in the foreseeable future.

3. SEGMENT REPORTING

The Group manages its businesses by product types. In a manner consistent with the way in which information is reported internally to the Group's most senior executive management for the purposes of resources allocation and performance assessment, the Group has identified the following two reportable segments in accordance with HKFRS 8 presented as follows:

  • Fresh produce and processed products: this segment grows, processes and sells agricultural products. Currently the Group's activities in this regard are carried out in the PRC.
  • Branded food products and others: this segment processes and sells food products. Currently the Group's activities in this regard are carried out in the PRC.
  1. Segment results, assets and liabilities
    Information regarding the Group's reportable segments as provided to the Group's most senior executive management for the purposes of resources allocation and assessment of segment performance for the years ended 30 April 2020 and 2019 is set out below:
    Segment assets include all current and non-current assets with the exception of investments in financial assets and other corporate assets. Segment liabilities include trade and other payables attributable to the sales activities of the individual segments and borrowings managed directly by the segments.
    Revenue and expenses are allocated to the reportable segments with reference to sales generated by those segments and the expenses incurred by those segments or which otherwise arise from the depreciation or amortisation of assets attributable to those segments.
    The measure used for reporting segment loss is "adjusted operating loss". To arrive at "adjusted operating loss", the Group's loss is adjusted for items not specifically attributable to individual segments, such as directors' and auditors' remuneration and other head office or corporate administration costs. Taxation charge is not allocated to reportable segment loss. Inter-segment sales are priced with reference to prices charged to external parties for similar orders.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

RESULTS OVERVIEW

For the year ended 30 April 2020, the Group was continuously operating two business segments, namely (i) fresh produce and processed products and (ii) branded food products and others. The breakdown of their revenue was as follows:

2020

2019

Total

449,442

471,173

Fresh produce and processed products

Fresh produce and processed products primarily consisted of fresh vegetables such as sweet corns, lotus roots, radish, cucumbers, watermelons as well as multi-grains such as red beans, green beans and peanuts. During FY2019/20, revenue from this segment amounted to approximately RMB412,849,000 (FY2018/19: approximately RMB430,803,000), which slightly decreased by approximately 4% compared with that of the last year. Due to the slight decline in the production volume of certain fresh produce resulted from crop rotation practice according to soil properties and the structural adjustment in market demand for agricultural products, there is a slight decrease in overall revenue.

Multi-Grain Farmland - Baicheng City

As a major cultivation and production base of the Group, the cultivation area of farmland in Baicheng City increased from 182,750 mu as at 30 April 2019 to 184,300 mu as at 30 April 2020. At the same time, with the enhancement in scale of cultivation and full leveraging of the favorable resource conditions contributed by local climate, soil and latitude, there is an increase in the level of comprehensive integration. The Group will pay more attention to soil quality and scientific cultivation to reduce the impact of extreme weather and maintain the production capacity. The Group will also closely monitor market demand and adjust cultivation structure and pattern of agricultural products timely and flexibly.

23

Branded food products and others

Branded food products and others mainly include rice sold under the Group's own brand, as well as the Group's "Garden Life" (田園生活) brand and "China Green Imperial Delicacy" (中綠御膳良品) brand. During FY2019/20, revenue from this segment was approximately RMB36,593,000 (FY2018/19: approximately RMB40,370,000), which decreased by approximately 9.3% compared with that of the last year, which was due to adjustment in product mix and the impact of COVID-19 pandemic. Among all categories of branded food products, rice flour product, round and fragrant grain rice and black soil pearl rice under "China Green Imperial Delicacy" brand are top 3 best sellers, which sales figure was approximately RMB7,067,000, RMB5,260,000 and RMB3,012,000 respectively, accounting for approximately 41.92% of the total revenue from branded food products and others business in aggregate.

Gross profit and gross profit margin

During FY2019/20, the Group recorded a gross profit and gross profit margin of approximately RMB42,279,000 and 9.4% (FY2018/19: gross profit and gross profit margin of approximately RMB9,565,000 and 2.0%). The increase in both gross profit and gross profit margin was mainly attributable to (i) the significant increase in pork prices in the second half of 2019 led to a further rise in inflation rate and a corresponding rise in the consumer price index, and thus an increase in the selling prices of the Group's products accordingly; and (ii) during FY2019/20, the quality of the Group's fresh produce was improved and the product mix of agricultural products was adjusted, which resulted in an increase in the value of certain fresh produce as compared to that of FY2018/19. As a result, gross profit and gross profit margin increased.

Other revenue

Other revenue decreased from approximately RMB2,219,000 in FY2018/19 to approximately RMB1,240,000 in FY2019/20, mainly attributable to the decrease in bank interest income which amounted to approximately RMB980,000.

Other gains

During FY2019/20, the Group recorded other gains of approximately RMB2,131,000 (FY2018/19: other gains of approximately RMB1,265,000). The increase in other gains

is mainly due to the gain of approximately RMB2,036,000 on disposal of the entire equity interest in 奉新中綠碧雲有機大米科技有限公司 (Fengxin Zhonglu Biyun

Organic Rice Science Technology Limited*). For details of the above disposal, please refer to the paragraph headed "Significant Investments held and Material Acquisitions and Disposals" below.

24

Gain arising from changes in fair value less costs to sell of biological assets

There was a gain arising from changes in fair value less costs to sell of biological assets of approximately RMB8,225,000 as compared with a gain of approximately RMB6,698,000 in FY2018/19. Such gain is mainly due to the increase of market price of some biological assets such as watermelons and lotus roots as at 30 April 2020.

Impairment loss on property, plant and equipment

During FY2019/20, the Group recognised impairment loss on property, plant and equipment of approximately RMB166,851,000, representing a decrease of approximately 20.4% as compared to approximately RMB209,606,000 for FY2018/19.

The decrease in impairment loss on property, plant and equipment was mainly due to (i) certain equipment had been fully depreciated or determined as obsolete during FY2019/20; and (ii) maintenance of the related property, plant and equipment during FY2019/20 to extend their useful life and performance.

Impairment loss on right-of-use assets

During FY2019/20, the Group recognised impairment loss on right-of-use assets of approximately RMB379,197,000 (FY2018/19: nil).

Such recognize of impairment loss was mainly due to the significant increase in the price of pork in recent years and since June and July 2019, the price hike has especially been aggravated by the impact of the swine fever epidemic in the previous period, which was followed by a general increase in the prices of various agricultural and non-staple products, further aggravation of inflation, continuous increase in price level and increase in various costs, such as cost of labour and materials. As a result, it is expected that the future net cash flows will decrease and an impairment loss was recognised in FY2019/20.

The above-mentioned losses are non-cash in nature and have no significant impact on the Group's cash flows for FY2019/20 accordingly.

Operating expenses

Total operating expenses amounted to approximately RMB274,401,000 (FY2018/19: approximately RMB242,681,000). Selling and distribution expenses were approximately RMB42,035,000 (FY2018/19: approximately RMB41,820,000), representing an increase of approximately 0.5%. This is because advertising and promotion cost on branded food products and others business was increased during FY2019/20. General and administrative expenses were approximately RMB232,366,000 (FY2018/19: approximately RMB200,861,000), representing an increase of approximately 15.7%, mainly due to the increase in research and development costs for new products and increase in insurance premium for the purpose of reducing finance costs.

25

Loss attributable to owners of the Company

During FY2019/20, loss attributable to owners of the Company was approximately RMB856,214,000 (FY2018/19: approximately RMB645,071,000). The increase in loss was mainly due to the recognition of impairment loss on right-of-use assets.

OUTLOOK AND PROSPECTS

In 2020, China's consumer market is expected to become even more challenging with the global outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic and heightened trade tensions, which will pose greater challenges to macroeconomic growth. Considering the new consumption habits and trends to be emerged in the post-pandemic world, the Group will act proactively, adjust its channel strategy in a timely manner and develop marketing channels and initiatives that are in line with the new consumption habits. The Group will also further enhance its marketing and promotion efficiency and strengthen its control over the terminal sector. Leveraging on its advantages in the area of industry chain and its brand building experience, the Group will strive for the combination of new retail, community retail models and platforms to accelerate the development of its online business, enhance the resources for each platform and expand its business volume.

The development of agriculture remains the top priority of the Chinese central government in the coming years, and a crucial layout for expanding agricultural product networks, promoting agricultural product trading and improving agricultural product storage facilities has been set out in the No 1 central document in 2020.

The Group will continue to strive to improve its corporate governance, optimize its product mix, product processes and enhance product quality to launch products that can embody its core competitive advantages. The Group will further consolidate and strengthen the competitiveness of its multi-grain products and high value-added products to meet the rising market demand for multi-grain products and continue to bring consumers healthy and safe food products. The Group is confident that this approach will be beneficial to the Company and its shareholders in the long run.

26

UNCERTAINTIES RELATING TO GOING CONCERN

For the year ended 30 April 2020, the Group incurred a loss of approximately RMB856,214,000 (2019: approximately RMB645,071,000) and a net cash outflow from operating activities of approximately RMB172,264,000 (2019: approximately RMB54,119,000). As at 30 April 2020, the Group had net current liabilities of approximately RMB230,199,000 (2019: approximately RMB18,705,000). In addition, the Group's convertible notes with principal amount of approximately RMB173,167,000 (equivalents to HK$190,000,000) was matured on 22 August 2019 and together of the accrued interest RMB16,849,000 (equivalents to HK$18,487,000) was not paid as at 30 April 2020. As at 30 April 2020, the Group's bank borrowings of RMB165,000,000 will be due in October 2020.

These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that might cast significant doubt about the Group's ability to continue as going concern and therefore the Group may be unable to realise the Group's liabilities in the normal course of business.

In view of such circumstances, the management of the Company have given careful consideration to future liquidity and performance of the Group and its available sources of financing in assessing whether the Group will be able to repay the outstanding convertible notes and bank borrowings and be able to finance its future working capital and finance requirements. The Group will implement various initiatives to increase revenue and control costs, leverage the loans for resumption of work offered under the policies for mitigating the impact of COVID-19 pandemic, strive for tax and expenses reduction, reduce finance costs, broaden the channel and scale of financing. Certain measures have been and will be taken to manage its liquidity need and to improve its financial position which include, but are not limited to, the following:

  1. Mr. Sun Shao Feng, the chairman, the chief executive officer and executive Director of the Company, is willing to continue to provide financial support to the Group to enable the Group to continue as a going concern;
  2. As at the date of approval of these financial statements, the Group is actively exploring, formulating and negotiating feasible debt restructuring plans with convertible notes holder's representatives;
  3. The Group will contact its current bank partners for bank borrowings renewal;
  4. The Group will seek to obtain any possible financing; and
  5. The Group will implement operation plans to control costs and generate adequate cash flows from the Group's operations.

Having considered the above, the Directors are of the opinion that it is appropriate to prepare the consolidated financial statements of the Group for FY2019/20 on a going concern basis.

The audit committee of the Company (the "Audit Committee") has reviewed and agreed with the management's position and is of the view that the Board should continue its efforts in implementing necessary measures for enhancing the Group's liquidity position.

Should the Group be unable to continue to operate as a going concern, adjustments would have to be made to write down the value of assets to their recoverable amounts, to provide for further liabilities which might arise and to reclassify non-current assets and non-current liabilities as current assets and current liabilities respectively. The effect of these adjustments has not been reflected in the financial statements.
