NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL REPORT
(Expressed in Renminbi unless otherwise indicated)
-
BASIS OF PREPARATION
The interim financial report has been prepared in accordance with the same accounting policies adopted in the 2018 annual financial statements, except for the accounting policy changes that are expected to be reflected in the 2019 annual financial statements. Details of any changes in accounting policies are set out in note 2. It was authorized for issue on 29 November 2019.
The preparation of an interim financial report in conformity with IAS 34, Interim financial reporting, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"), requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses on a year to date basis. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
This interim financial report contains condensed consolidated financial statements and selected explanatory notes. The notes include an explanation of events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in financial position and performance of Hydoo International Holding Limited ("the Company") and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as "the Group") since the 2018 annual financial statements. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements and notes thereon do not include all of the information required for a full set of financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRSs").
The interim financial report is unaudited, but has been reviewed by KPMG in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Review Engagements 2410, Review of interim financial information performed by the independent auditor of the entity, issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants. KPMG's independent review report to the Board of Directors is included on page 54.
The financial information relating to the financial year ended 31 December 2018 that is included in the interim financial report as comparative information does not constitute the Company's statutory annual consolidated financial statements for that financial year but is derived from those financial statements. Statutory financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018 are available from the Company's registered office. The auditors have expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements in their report dated 28 March 2019. - CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The IASB has issued a new IFRS, IFRS 16, Leases, and a number of amendments to IFRSs that are first effective for the current accounting period of the Group.
Except for IFRS 16, Leases, none of the developments have had a material effect on how the Group's results and financial position for the current or prior periods have been prepared or presented in this interim financial report. The Group has not applied any new standard or interpretation that is not yet effective for the current accounting period.
IFRS 16, Leases
IFRS 16 replaces IAS 17, Leases, and the related interpretations, IFRIC 4, Determining whether an arrangement contains a lease, SIC 15, Operating leases - incentives, and SIC 27, Evaluating the substance of transactions involving the legal form of a lease. It introduces a single accounting model for lessees, which requires a lessee to recognise a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases, except for leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less ("short-term leases") and leases of low value assets. The lessor accounting requirements are brought forward from IAS 17 substantially unchanged.
- 26 -
The Group has initially applied IFRS 16 as from 1 January 2019. The Group has elected to use the modified retrospective approach and has therefore recognised the cumulative effect of initial application as an adjustment to the opening balance of equity at 1 January 2019. Comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under IAS 17.
Further details of the nature and effect of the changes to previous accounting policies and the transition options applied are set out below:
- Changes in the accounting policies
-
New definition of a lease
The change in the definition of a lease mainly relates to the concept of control. IFRS 16 defines a lease on the basis of whether a customer controls the use of an identified asset for a period of time, which may be determined by a defined amount of use. Control is conveyed where the customer has both the right to direct the use of the identified asset and to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from that use.
The Group applies the new definition of a lease in IFRS 16 only to contracts that were entered into or changed on or after 1 January 2019. For contracts entered into before 1 January 2019, the Group has used the transitional practical expedient to grandfather the previous assessment of which existing arrangements are or contain leases.
Accordingly, contracts that were previously assessed as leases under IAS 17 continue to be accounted for as leases under IFRS 16 and contracts previously assessed as non-lease service arrangements continue to be accounted for as executory contracts. - Lessee accounting
IFRS 16 eliminates the requirement for a lessee to classify leases as either operating leases or finance leases, as was previously required by IAS 17. Instead, the Group is required to capitalise all leases when it is the lessee, including leases previously classified as operating leases under IAS 17, other than those short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. As far as the Group is concerned, these newly capitalised leases are primarily in relation to property as disclosed in note 25(b).
Where the contract contains lease component(s) and non-lease component(s), the Group has elected not to separate non-lease components and accounts for each lease component and any associated non-lease components as a single lease component for all leases.
When the Group enters into a lease in respect of a low-value asset, the Group decides whether to capitalise the lease on a lease-by-lease basis. For the Group, low-value assets are typically laptops or office furniture. The lease payments associated with those leases which are not capitalised are recognised as an expense on a systematic basis over the lease term.
Where the lease is capitalised, the lease liability is initially recognised at the present value of the lease payments payable over the lease term, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, using a relevant incremental borrowing rate. After initial recognition, the lease liability is measured at amortised cost and interest expense is calculated using the effective interest method. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or rate are not included in the measurement of the lease liability and hence are charged to profit or loss in the accounting period in which they are incurred.

New definition of a lease
- 27 -
The right-of-use asset recognised when a lease is capitalised is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability plus any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, and any initial direct costs incurred. Where applicable, the cost of the right-of-use assets also includes an estimate of costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, discounted to their present value, less any lease incentives received.
The right-of-use asset is subsequently stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, except for the following types of right-of-use asset:
- right-of-useassets that meet the definition of investment property are carried at fair value; and
- right-of-useassets related to interests in leasehold land where the interest in the land is held as inventory are carried at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
The lease liability is remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate, or there is a change in the Group's estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, or there is a change arising from the reassessment of whether the Group will be reasonably certain to exercise a purchase, extension or termination option. When the lease liability is remeasured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset, or is recorded in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.

Leasehold investment property
Under IFRS 16, the Group is required to account for all leasehold properties as investment properties when these properties are held to earn rental income and/or for capital appreciation ("leasehold investment properties"). - Sale and leaseback transactions before the date of initial application
The Group had sale and leaseback transaction accounted for as a sale and operating lease applying IAS 17 before the date of initial application. Under IFRS 16, the Group accounts for the leaseback in the same way as it accounts for any other operating lease that exists at the date of initial application; and adjust the leaseback right-of-use asset for any deferred gains or losses that relate to off-market terms recognised in the statement of financial position immediately before the date of initial application. - Lessor accounting
In addition to leasing out the investment property referred to in paragraph (a)(iii) above, the Group leases out a number of items of machinery as the lessor of finance leases. The accounting policies applicable to the Group as a lessor remain substantially unchanged from those under IAS 17.
Under IFRS 16, when the Group acts as an intermediate lessor in a sublease arrangement, the Group is required to classify the sublease as a finance lease or an operating lease by reference to the right-of-use asset arising from the head lease, instead of by reference to the underlying asset. The adoption of IFRS 16 does not have a significant impact on the Group's financial statements in this regard.

Critical accounting judgements and sources of estimation uncertainty in applying the above accounting policies
Determining the lease term
As explained in the above accounting policies, the lease liability is initially recognised at the present value of the lease payments payable over the lease term. In determining the lease term at the commencement date for leases that include renewal options exercisable by the Group, the Group evaluates the likelihood of exercising the renewal options taking into account all relevant facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive for the Group to exercise the option, including favourable terms, leasehold improvements undertaken and the importance of that underlying asset to the Group's operation. The lease term is reassessed when there is a significant event or significant change in circumstance that is within the Group's control. Any increase or decrease in the lease term would affect the amount of lease liabilities and right-of-use assets recognised in future years. - Transitional impact
At the date of transition to IFRS 16 (i.e. 1 January 2019), the Group determined the length of the remaining lease terms and measured the lease liabilities for the leases previously classified as operating leases at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the relevant incremental borrowing rates at 1 January 2019. The weighted average of the incremental borrowing rates used for determination of the present value of the remaining lease payments was 8.76% and 3.53%.
To ease the transition to IFRS 16, the Group applied the following recognition exemption and practical expedients at the date of initial application of IFRS 16: - the Group elected not to apply the requirements of IFRS 16 in respect of the recognition of lease liabilities and right-of-use assets to leases for which the remaining lease term ends within 12 months from the date of initial application of IFRS 16, i.e. where the lease term ends on or before 31 December 2019;
- when measuring the lease liabilities at the date of initial application of IFRS 16, the Group applied a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with reasonably similar characteristics (such as leases with a similar remaining lease term for a similar class of underlying asset in a similar economic environment); and
- when measuring the right-of-use assets at the date of initial application of IFRS 16, the Group relied on the previous assessment for onerous contract provisions as at 31 December 2018 as an alternative to performing an impairment review.

The following table reconciles the operating lease commitments as disclosed in note 25(b) as at 31 December 2018 to the opening balance for lease liabilities recognised as at 1 January 2019:

Less: total future interest expenses
Present value of remaining lease payments, discounted using the incremental borrowing rate at 1 January 2019 and total lease liabilities recognised at 1 January 2019
(17,656)
47,975
The right-of-use assets in relation to leases previously classified as operating leases have been recognised at an amount equal to the amount recognised for the remaining lease liabilities, adjusted by the amount of any prepaid or accrued lease payments relating to that lease recognised in the statement of financial position at 31 December 2018.
So far as the impact of the adoption of IFRS 16 on leases previously classified as finance leases is concerned, the Group is not required to make any adjustments at the date of initial application of IFRS 16, other than changing the captions for the balances. Accordingly, instead of "obligations under finance leases", these amounts are included within "lease liabilities", and the depreciated carrying amount of the corresponding leased asset is identified as a right-of-use asset. There is no impact on the opening balance of equity.
The Group presents right-of-use assets that do not meet the definition of investment property in 'other property, plant and equipment' and presents lease liabilities separately in the statement of financial position.

- Impact on the financial result, segment results and cash flows of the Group
After the initial recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities as at 1 January 2019, the Group as a lessee is required to recognise interest expense accrued on the outstanding balance of the lease liability, and the depreciation of the right-of-use asset, instead of the previous policy of recognising rental expenses incurred under operating leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. This results in a positive impact on the reported profit from operations in the Group's consolidated statement of profit or loss, as compared to the results if IAS 17 had been applied during the year.
In the cash flow statement, the Group as a lessee is required to split rentals paid under capitalised leases into their capital element and interest element. These elements are classified as financing cash outflows, similar to how leases previously classified as finance leases under IAS 17 were treated, rather than as operating cash outflows, as was the case for operating leases under IAS 17. Although total cash flows are unaffected, the adoption of IFRS 16 therefore results in a significant change in presentation of cash flows within the cash flow statement.
- 33 -
The following tables may give an indication of the estimated impact of adoption of IFRS 16 on the Group's financial result, segment results and cash flows for the eight months ended 31 August 2019, by adjusting the amounts reported under IFRS 16 in these interim financial statements to compute estimates of the hypothetical amounts that would have been recognised under IAS 17 if this superseded standard had continued to apply to 2019 instead of IFRS 16, and by comparing these hypothetical amounts for 2019 with the actual 2018 corresponding amounts which were prepared under IAS 17.

This estimate assumes that there were no difference between rentals and cash flows and that all of the new leases entered into in 2019 would have been classified as operating leases under IAS 17, if IAS 17 had still applied in 2019. Any potential net tax effect is ignored.
Note ii: In this impact table these cash outflows are reclassified from financing to operating in order to compute hypothetical amounts of net cash generated from operating activities and net cash used in financing activities as if IAS 17 still applied.
3 SEGMENT REPORTING
Operating segments, and the amounts of each segment item reported in the interim financial report, are identified from the financial data and information provided regularly to the Group's most senior executive management for the purposes of allocating resources to, and assessing the performance of, the Group's various lines of business and geographical locations. No segment information is presented in respect of the Group's operating segment as the Group is principally engaged in one segment in the People's Republic of China (the "PRC"). The Group does not operate any material business in any other geographical or business segment during the period.

PRC CIT
The Group's PRC subsidiaries are subject to statutory tax rate of 25% on their assessable profits.
In July 2013, Ganzhou Hydoo Commercial and Trade Logistics Park Development Co., Ltd. was approved to enjoy a preferential PRC CIT rate of 15% from the years 2012 to 2020 according to a tax notice issued by the local tax bureau.
In December 2015, Wuzhou Hydoo Commercial and Trade Centre Development Co., Ltd. was also approved to enjoy a preferential PRC CIT rate of 15% for the years from 2015 to 2020 according to a tax notice issued by the local tax bureau.
The preferential tax treatment was based on various tax rules and regulations in relation to PRC government's strategy in encouraging investment and development of wholesale trading markets in certain regions in the PRC. - PRC LAT
PRC LAT which is levied on properties developed for sale by the Group in the PRC, at progressive rates ranging from 30% to 60% on the appreciation value, which under the applicable regulations is calculated based on the proceeds of sales of properties less deductible expenditures including lease charges of land use rights, borrowing costs and all qualified property development expenditures. Deferred tax assets arising from PRC LAT accrued are calculated based on the applicable income tax rates when they are expected to be cleared.
In addition, certain subsidiaries of the Group were subject to PRC LAT which were calculated based on 6% to 8% of their revenue in accordance with the authorised tax valuation method approved by respective local tax bureau.
- 38 -
The directors of the Company are of the opinion that the authorised tax valuation method is one of the allowable taxation methods in the PRC and the respective local tax bureaus are the competent tax authorities to approve the authorised tax valuation method in charging PRC LAT to the respective PRC subsidiaries of the Group, and the risk of being challenged by the State Administration of Taxation or any tax bureau of higher authority is remote.
- PRC dividend withholding tax
Withholding tax is levied on Hong Kong companies in respect of dividend distributions arising from profit of PRC subsidiaries earned after 1 January 2008 at 5%.
- LOSS PER SHARE
-
Basic loss per share
The calculation of basic loss per share is based on loss attributable to equity shareholders of the Company of RMB16,524,000 (eight months ended 31 August 2018: RMB33,029,000) and the weighted average of 4,014,844,000 ordinary shares (eight months ended 31 August 2018: 4,014,844,000 ordinary shares). - Diluted loss per share
All options granted under the Company's Pre-IPO Share Option Scheme had expired on 31 December 2018. There is no effect of deemed issue of the share option scheme for the eight months ended 31 August 2019. For the eight months ended 31 August 2018, the deemed issue of shares under the Company's Pre-IPO Share Option Scheme for nil consideration was anti-dilutive.

Right-of-useassets
As discussed in note 2, the Group has initially applied IFRS 16 using the modified retrospective method and adjusted the opening balances at 1 January 2019 to recognise right-of-use assets relating to leases which were previously classified as operating leases under IAS 17. Further details on the net book value of the Group's right-of-use assets by class of underlying asset are set out in note 2.
During the eight months ended 31 August 2019, the Group entered into a lease agreement for use of an apartment, and therefore recognised the additions to right-of-use assets of RMB58,000. - Additions of owned assets
During the eight months ended 31 August 2019, the Group acquired items of plant and equipment with a cost of RMB12,762,000 (eight months ended 31 August 2018: RMB9,208,000). - Disposals of owned assets
Items of plant and equipment with a net book value of RMB967,000 were disposed of during the eight months ended 31 August 2019 (eight months ended 31 August 2018: RMB283,000), resulting in a gain on disposal of RMB414,000 (eight months ended 31 August 2018: a gain on disposal of RMB146,000).

As discussed in note 2, the Group has initially applied IFRS 16 using the modified retrospective method and adjusted the opening balances at 1 January 2019 to recognise right-of-use assets relating to leases which were previously classified as operating leases under IAS 17. Further details on the net book value of the Group's right-of-use assets by class of underlying asset are set out in note 2. - Disposals
During the eight months ended 31 August 2019, items of investment properties with a net book value of RMB21,092,000 (eight months ended 31 August 2018: RMB Nil) and investment properties classified as held for sale with a net book value of RMB26,463,000 (eight months ended 31 August 2018: RMB Nil) were disposed, resulting in a loss of RMB10,247,000 (note 5). - Valuations
During the eight months ended 31 August 2019, a gain on fair value of RMB29,769,000 (eight months ended 31 August 2018: RMB10,039,000) in respect of existing investment properties, with the total corresponding deferred tax of RMB7,161,000 (eight months ended 31 August 2018: RMB2,339,000), had been recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss for the period.
During the eight months ended 31 August 2018, a gain on fair value of RMB135,233,000 in respect of transfer of inventory to investment properties, with corresponding deferred tax of RMB33,808,000, has been recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss. No such transfer incurred during the eight months ended 31 August 2019.
Certain bank loans granted to the Group were jointly secured by investment properties with a book value of RMB688,300,000 (31 December 2018: RMB683,900,000) (note 18).
The Group's investment properties are held on leases of between 3 to 15 years in the PRC.

- INTEREST IN JOINT VENTURES
As at 31 August 2019, the Group's interest in Hydoo Best Group Co., Ltd ("Hydoo Best") amounted to RMB126,200,000 (31 December 2018: RMB126,200,000).
In 2018, Hydoo Best was unable to get reimbursement of the cost of certain pieces of land which have to be returned to the original vendor by the order of the court. In addition, the joint venture partner of Hydoo Best was obligated to repurchase certain shares in Hydoo Best held by the Group but failed to do so within the specified time frame. This resulted in a loss on the interest in Hydoo Best held by the Group.
The directors expect that the Group will be able to recover part of its interest in Hydoo Best by obtaining the land pieces still held by Hydoo Best based on the legal opinion obtained from an external legal counsel. With reference to the fair value of these land pieces which were assessed by the Group's directors based on a valuation report prepared by external valuers, the Group has made a provision for impairment loss of RMB19,752,000 on the interest in Hydoo Best and a specific loss allowance of RMB19,613,000 on the amount due from Hydoo Best in 2018. The directors considered that no further provision for impairment loss was necessary during eight months ended 31 August 2019.

Share option scheme
In order to enable the Company to grant options to the employees of the members of the Group and any persons who have contributed to the Group at the time of granting Options (the "Qualified Participants") as incentives or to reward the Qualified Participants for their contribution to the growth of the Group, the Company approved and adopted the share option scheme on 30 May 2019. As at the date of this interim report, the Board has not granted any Options. - Capital management
The Group's primary objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group's ability to continue as a going concern, so that it can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders, by pricing products and services commensurately with the level of risk and by securing access to finance at a reasonable cost.
The Group actively and regularly reviews and manages its capital structure to maintain a balance between the higher shareholder returns that might be possible with higher levels of borrowings and the advantages and security afforded by a sound capital position, and makes adjustments to the capital structure in light of changes in economic conditions.
The Group monitors its capital structure on the basis of gearing ratio. The Group defines this ratio as total interest-bearing liabilities (includes bank loans and other borrowings, senior notes, corporate bonds and lease liabilities) divided by total assets of the Group.
The Group has initially applied IFRS 16 using the modified retrospective approach. Under this approach, the Group recognises right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities for almost all leases previously accounted for as operating leases as from 1 January 2019. The adoption of IFRS 16 does not have a significant impact on the Group's gearing ratio on 1 January 2019 when compared to its position as at 31 December 2018.
The Group's gearing ratio at the end of the current and previous reporting periods and at the date of transition to IFRS 16 was as follows:
31 August 2019 | 1 January 2019 | 31 December 2018 | |||||
(Note) | (Note) | ||||||

Gearing ratio | 20.6% | 20.8% | 20.5% | ||||
Note: The Group has initially applied IFRS 16 using the modified retrospective approach and adjusted the opening balances at 1 January 2019 to recognise lease liabilities relating to leases which were previously classified as operating leases under IAS 17. Under this approach, the comparative information is not restated. See note 2.

23 DISPOSAL OF SUBSIDIARIES
-
Beijing Hydoo Yingchuang Corporate Management Company Limited (北京毅德盈創企業管理 有限公司) and Lanzhou Hydoo Yingchuang Estate Company Limited (蘭州毅德盈創置業有限 公司) (collectively "Yingchuang") were subsidiaries of the Group. On 9 April 2019, the Group
disposed its 100% equity interest in Yingchuang to an associate, Beijing Sunac Hydoo Corporate Management Company Limited (北京融創毅德企業管理有限公司) ("Sunac Hydoo"), which was established by the Group, Beiijng Sunac Construction Investment Real Estate Co., Ltd (北京融創建 投房地產集團有限公司) ("Sunac"). and Mr Yi Jiming (collectively "Partners").
Pursuant to the agreement entered into between the Group and Partners (the "Agreement"), the consideration of disposal of the equity interest was RMB255,390,000 (the "Consideration") and the amounts due to the Group held by Yingchuang related to the initial land cost paid by the Group on behalf of Yingchuang was RMB102,940,000.
As agreed, the amounts due to the Group held by Yingchuang would be settled by Yingchuang directly. Since the consideration for equity interest is agreed to be settled according to the development progress of the underlying projects in Yingchuang and there is no fixed repayment schedule, the consideration receivables are measured at FVPL and discounted at the weighted average borrowing cost of the Group. Up to 31 August 2019, the above consideration receivables of RMB184,460,000 was settled by the associate.
As at 31 August 2019, the fair value of the outstanding consideration receivables was RMB53,552,000 (note 12), which was classified as non-current assets according to the expected development progress.
As at 31 August 2019, among the amounts due to the Group held by Yingchuang of RMB102,940,000, RMB32,180,000 (note 12) is interest-bearing at 15% per annum and expected to be recovered in 2020. The remaining balance of RMB70,760,000 was settled in July 2019.
Pursuant to the agreement, if the Group consummates the change of use for certain pieces of land held by Yingchuang with government, an additional compensation amount would be recovered from Yingchuang. As the negotiation with the government for change in the planned use of lands has not been initiated by the Group and the date of completion can not be reasonably expected, the Group considers that the fair value of this additional compensation amount cannot be reliably measured as at 31 August 2019, and the Group has not recognised this contingent consideration in the consolidated financial statements.
Pursuant to the agreement, if the Group fail to change the title of the certain purchase documents related to initial land cost to Yingchuang, the Group has to compensate Sunac the relevant future tax expenses to be incurred. As the potential payment obligation would be measured based on future matters, it is the contingent consideration payable recorded as financial liability at FVPL of RMB32,642,000 as at 31 August 2019.
After the above disposal, a net gain of RMB220,663,000 was recognised during the eight months ended 31 August 2019.

24 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
- Financial instruments measured at fair value
The following table presents the fair value of financial instruments measured at the end of the reporting period on a recurring basis, categorised into the three-level fair value hierarchy as defined in IFRS 13, Fair value measurement. The level into which a fair value measurement is classified is determined with reference to the observability and significance of the inputs used in the valuation technique as follows:
Level 1 valuations: | Fair value measured using only Level 1 inputs i.e. unadjusted quoted prices | ||||
in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date | |||||
Level 2 valuations: | Fair value measured using Level 2 inputs i.e. observable inputs which | ||||
fail to meet Level 1, and not using significant unobservable inputs. | |||||
Unobservable inputs are inputs for which market data are not available | |||||
Level 3 valuations: | Fair value measured using significant unobservable inputs | ||||

Valuation techniques and inputs used in Level 2 fair value measurements
The fair value of derivative financial instruments in Level 2 is the estimated amount that the Group would receive or pay to terminate the option at the end of the reporting period, taking into account current interest rates and the current creditworthiness of the option counterparties. - Information about Level 3 fair value measurements
The fair value of unlisted equity investments is determined using the price/earnings ratios of comparable listed companies adjusted for lack of marketability discount. The fair value measurement is negatively correlated to the discount for lack of marketability.
The fair value of amount due from an associate measured at FVPL and other financial liability are determined using future estimated cash flow to be recovered/paid, future profit forecast of disposal entity and applicable discount rate.
The movement during the period in the balance of Level 3 fair value measurements is as follows:
31 August 2019 | ||
RMB'000 | ||
At 1 January | 118,594 | |
Additional | 258,719 | |
Decrease | (184,460) | |
Net unrealised gains recognised in profit or loss during the period | 26,473 | |
At 31 August | 219,326 | |

The Group is the lessee in respect of a number of properties held under leases which were previously classified as operating leases under IAS 17. The Group has initially applied IFRS 16 using the modified retrospective approach. Under this approach, the Group adjusted the opening balances at 1 January 2019 to recognise lease liabilities relating to these leases (see note 2). From 1 January 2019 onwards, future lease payments are recognised as lease liabilities in the statement of financial position in accordance with the policies set out in note 2.
26 CONTINGENT LIABILITIES Guarantees
The Group provided guarantees in respect of mortgage facilities granted by certain banks in connection with the mortgage loans entered into by purchasers of the Group's properties. Pursuant to the terms of the guarantees, if there is default of the mortgage payments by these purchasers, the Group is responsible to repay the outstanding mortgage loans together with any accrued interest and penalty owned by the defaulted purchasers to the banks. The Group's guarantee period commences from the dates of grant of the relevant mortgage loans and ends upon the earlier of the buyer obtained the individual property ownership certificate and the full settlement of mortgage loans by the buyer.
The maximum amount of guarantees given to banks for mortgage facilities granted to the purchasers of the Group's properties at the reporting date is as follows:
31 August | 31 December | ||
2019 | 2018 | ||
RMB'000 | RMB'000 | ||
Guarantees given to banks for mortgage facilities granted to | |||
purchasers of the Group's properties | 2,666,159 | 2,204,505 | |
The directors consider that it is not probable that the Group will sustain a loss under these guarantees, the Group can take over the ownerships of the related properties and sell the properties to recover any amounts paid by the Group to the banks. The directors of the Company also consider that the fair market value of the underlying properties is able to cover the outstanding mortgage loans guaranteed by the Group in the event the purchasers default payments to the banks.
The Group has not recognised any deferred income in respect of these guarantees as its fair value is considered to be minimal by the directors of the Company.

(Incorporated in Cayman Islands with limited liability)
Introduction
We have reviewed the interim financial report set out on pages 16 to 53 which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position of Hydoo International Holding Limited ("the Company") as of 31 August 2019 and the related consolidated statement of profit or loss, consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income and consolidated statement of changes in equity and condensed consolidated cash flow statement for the eight months period then ended and explanatory notes. The directors are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the interim financial report in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, Interim financial reporting, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.
Our responsibility is to form a conclusion, based on our review, on the interim financial report and to report our conclusion solely to you, as a body, in accordance with our agreed terms of engagement, and for no other purpose. We do not assume responsibility towards or accept liability to any other person for the contents of this report.
Scope of review
We conducted our review in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Review Engagements 2410, Review of interim financial information performed by the independent auditor of the entity, issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of the interim financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly we do not express an audit opinion.
Conclusion
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim financial report as at 31 August 2019 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, Interim financial reporting.
