BUSINESS REVIEW FOR THE FIRST HALF OF THE YEAR
 
During the first half of 2011, the Company overcame the adverse effects arising from high fuel prices, tight money supply and downward movement of the capital market. The Company actively addressed the changes in the operating environment focusing on enhancing economic efficiency. As a result, the Company achieved new developments in various aspects including production safety, cost control, energy saving and environment protection and capital operation.

1.
Power Generation

During the first half of this year, the Company’s power plants within China achieved a total power generation of 152.404 billion kWh on consolidated basis, representing an increase of 28.25% over the same period of last year. The increase in power generation of the Company was mainly attributable to the following reasons: The Company has grasped the continued growth trend of the national economy in 2011 and the favourable conditions of a relatively strong national power demand, expanding various marketing channels and increasing effective power generation. At the same time, the market share of the Company increased as a number of new generating units commenced power generation since the second half of 2010, and the acquisition of Diandong Energy Company and Zhanhua Cogeneration was completed.

During the first half of 2011, the total power generation of Tuas Power Ltd. in Singapore accounted for a market share of 26.7%, representing an increase of 2.2 percentage point compared to that in the same period of last year.

2.       Cost Control

During the first half of 2011, the Company’s coal purchase cost increased as the market purchase price remained at a high level which was significantly higher than that in the same period of last year. The Company adopted various measures including optimizing the purchase structure, increasing the purchase volume of economical coal and rationalizing inventories arrangements, with an aim of reducing average coal purchase prices.

3.       Energy Saving and Environmental Protection

The Company attaches great importance to energy saving and environmental protection work. During the "Eleventh Five-year Plan" period, all coal-fired generating units of the Company are equipped with desulphurization facilities and over 30% of the capacity of coal-fired generating units is equipped with denitrification facilities. Moreover, the Company has strengthened the maintenance in operation of the desulphurization facilities of coal-fired generating units so as to increase the operating efficiency and commissioning rate of the facilities.

4.       Project Development and Construction

During the first half of 2011, the Jiangsu Jinling CCGT co-generation project, Liaoning Changtu Taiping Wind Power Plant project and Yunnan Laochang Mining Area Bailongshan Coal Mine No.2 Shaft project of the Company obtained approval.

Liaoning Wafangdian Zhaotun Wind Power Plant (48 MW) commenced operation on 18 June 2011. To date, the controlling generation capacity and the equity-based generation capacity of the Company are 54,499 MW and 51,032.5 MW respectively.

5.       Capital Operation

On 29 June 2011, the Company entered into an agreement relating to the transfer of the equity interest in Huaneng Jilin Biological Power Generation Co., Ltd. with Huaneng Jilin Power Generation Co., Ltd. ("Huaneng Jilin Company") and China Huaneng Group Company ("Huaneng Group"), pursuant to which the Company will transfer its interest in Huaneng Jilin Biological Power Generation Co., Ltd. ("Jilin Biological Company") to Huaneng Jilin Company and Huaneng Jilin Company will pay a consideration of RMB106,303,200 to the Company. At the same time, the energy saving and emission reduction capital in the central state-owned capital operating budget in the sum of RMB71,350,000 originally appropriated by Huaneng Group to Jilin Biological Company through the Company will no longer be treated as capital injected by the Company. Huaneng Group and Huaneng Jilin Company will enter into a separate agreement on the special fund treatment issue.

PROSPECTS FOR THE SECOND HALF OF THE YEAR

Currently the overall economic situation of China is good and the economy is being developed following the macroeconomic control policy. The government will continue to maintain the continuity and stability of the macroeconomic policy and continuously enhance the pertinence and flexibility of the policy.

Regarding the power market, national power demand maintained a relatively rapid growth trend due to the steady and relatively fast development of the national economy. The estimated national annual power generation is expected to increase more than 12%. Most of the Company’s power plants are located along riverside or seaside in southeast China, where the power market condition is better than that of the nationwide level as a whole. In addition to the completion of the planned power generation for domestic units of 315 billion kWh set out at the beginning of this year, the Company strives to enable the annual power generation utilization hours of coal-fired generation units to exceed the average levels of the places where the coal-fired generating units are located. However, during the second half of the year, the power market faces certain uncertainties. Following the further realization of the effect of monetary tightening structure adjustment and the continuous commencement of operation of new generating units, power supply capability will be further enhanced and the tense power supply and demand situation will be further eased, and the growth rate of power generation will slow down gradually. At the same time, the Company will comply with the higher requirement in future development projects after the government’s restructuring of the energy sector and vigorous promotion of clean energy and renewable energy development.

Regarding the coal market, the National Development and Reform Commission strengthened supervision on the fulfillment rates and price settlement of key coal supply contracts of certain coal suppliers. The Company will actively implement and continuously strive to obtain the support of State policies in order to increase the overall profitability. During the second half of the year, the coal demand and supply tend to balance generally, and coal prices will remain at high levels. The Company will formulate purchase strategy and optimize purchase structure according to market changes; continue to strengthen cooperation with large State-owned coal enterprises and broaden major supply channels; strengthen economical coal purchase; capitalize on the function of two resources in the international and

domestic markets; actively explore new channels to obtain coal resources and strive to control fuel costs.

Regarding energy saving and environmental protection, the Company always strictly complies with the State’s policies and regulations on energy saving and environmental protection. The Company applies advanced technologies to new generating units to develop advanced, large capacity and effective coal-fired generating units and effective cogenerating units, strives to increase the ratio of clean energy including wind power and hydropower, expedites the denitrification renovation of coal-fired generating units and strengthens the operation management of the environmental protection facilities of existing generating units, so as to effectively reduce pollutant emission and control costs on energy saving and environmental protection.

Regarding the capital market, the monetary policy of the government has changed from "moderately loose" to "stable". During the year, the Central Bank raised the deposit reserve ratio six times successively and raised the loan interest rate three times. Large banks also further strengthened risk control and enterprise financing difficulty and financing costs further increased.

During the second half of the year, the Company will fully leverage its own advantages in terms of resources, scale, geographical coverage and costs. It will actively exploit new space for development, strengthen marketing work, strive to exceed the annual power generation target, strictly control costs and enhance the Company’s profitability.

The major tasks of the Company for the second half of 2011 include:

1.
to strengthen safe production and management and ensure the safe, stable and economical operation of its generating units;
   
2.
to strengthen the sales force and strive to exceed the annual power generation on the basis of ensuring maximization of the benefits of power generation;
   
3.
to improve fuel management work and make every effort to ensure a safe, stable and effective fuel supply; and to raise the key contract fulfillment rate, strengthen blending and mixed burning and effectively control fuel purchase costs;
   
4.
to strengthen the management of energy consumption indicators, actively promote refined management of energy consumption indicators and optimized operation of generating units and further raise the level of energy consumption indicators; and to strengthen emissions reduction and continuously enhance the commissioning rate and overall efficiency of the environmental protection facilities;
   
5.
to actively cope with the severe financing environment and strive to explore financing channels in order to ensure capital sufficiency for the operation and development of the Company; and to further optimize the debt structure and control financial risks.
   
6.
to actively push forward preliminary work of projects; to further optimize power structure and adjust deployment by making use of the "Twelfth Five-year Plan" of power development; and to strengthen infrastructure management and ensure the safe, stable and economical operation of new generating units in order to attain the requirements for energy saving and environmental friendly generating units.

VI.
Risk factors

i)
Interest rate risk

Domestic operations: the interest bearing debts denominated in RMB accounted for over 90% of the Company’s total interest bearing debts. Hence, the change of RMB interest rates will directly affect the Company’s borrowing costs. The interest bearing debts denominated in foreign currencies accounted for less than 10% of the Company’s total interest bearing debts, and approximately half of such debts are floating rate borrowings. The Company has entered into an interest rate swap agreement to hedge against its exposures to interest rate risk of approximately half of the debts with floating interest rates, and thus, the fluctuation of the interest rates on foreign currencies borrowings is expected to have minimal impact on the Company.

Overseas operations: the interest bearing debts for the Singapore operations were all denominated in Singapore dollar and bear floating interest rates. The Company has entered into a series of interest rate swap agreements to hedge against its exposures to interest rate risk of approximately half of these debts, and given the prevailing lower level of the interest rates of Singapore dollar borrowings, the recent fluctuation of interest rates of Singapore dollar borrowings is not expected to have material adverse effect on the Company.


 
15

 

ii)
Exchange rate risk

Domestic operations: the interest bearing debts denominated in foreign currencies account for less than 10% of the Company’s total debts, mainly denominated in US dollar. Given the steadily upward trend of the exchange rate of RMB to US dollar, the recent fluctuation of exchange rates is not expected to have material adverse effect on the Company.

Overseas operations: the imported fuels by Tuas Power, a subsidiary of SinoSing Power, were settled in US dollar. Considering the fluctuation of the exchange rate of Singapore dollar to US dollar, Tuas Power has entered into forward exchange contracts to hedge against its exposure to potential exchange risks.

The Company will keep a close watch on the fluctuations of exchange rate and interest rate markets and prudently assess the currency and interest rate risks. Combining the current development of overall power generation industry and the growth of the Company, the Company will make continuous effort to not only meet cash requirements for daily operations, constructions and acquisitions, but also establish an optimal capital structure to minimize the cost of capital and manage financial risks through effective financial management activities, thus maintaining sustainable and stable returns to the shareholders.

This unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2010, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") promulgated by the International Accounting Standards Board (the "IASB").

As at and for the six months ended 30 June 2011, a portion of the Company and its subsidiaries’ funding requirements for capital expenditures were partially satisfied by short-term financing. Consequently, as at 30 June 2011, the Company and its subsidiaries have a negative working capital balance of approximately Renminbi Yuan ("RMB") 61.78 billion. Taking into consideration of the expected operating cash flows of the Company and its subsidiaries and the undrawn available banking facilities, the Company and its subsidiaries will refinance and / or restructure certain short-term borrowings into long-term borrowings and also consider alternative sources of financing, where applicable. Therefore, the directors of the Company are of the opinion that the Company and its subsidiaries will be able to meet their liabilities as and when they fall due within the next twelve months and have prepared this unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information on a going concern basis.

PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Except as described below, the principal accounting policies adopted are consistent with those applied in the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2010 described in those annual financial statements.

The Company and its subsidiaries have adopted the following amendments to standards in 2011.

IAS 24 (revised), ‘Related party disclosures’, issued in November 2009. It supersedes IAS 24, ‘Related party disclosures’, issued in 2003. IAS 24 (revised) is mandatory for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011. The revised standard clarifies and simplifies the definition of a related party and removes the requirement for government-related enterprises to disclose details of all transactions with the government and other


 
41

 


 
government-related enterprises. The Company and its subsidiaries has earlier adopted the partial exemption of disclosure requirements for transactions with government-related enterprises on 1 January 2010 and apply the remaining requirements of this standard from 1 January 2011 onwards. The adoption of the remaining requirements results in additional disclosures on transactions and balances with associates/jointly controlled entities of Huaneng Group and its subsidiaries. This did not result in any material impact on the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information as there was no material transactions with associates/jointly controlled entities of Huaneng Group and its subsidiaries for the six months ended 30 June 2011. The Company and its subsidiaries will disclose the commitments balance with related parties in the upcoming annual financial statements.
   
Amendments to IFRS 7, ‘Financial instruments: disclosures’. The amendments were as a result of the May 2010 Improvements to IFRSs (the "May 2010 Improvements") (effective for financial year beginning 1 January 2011). The May 2010 Improvements clarified certain quantitative disclosures and removed the disclosure requirements on financial assets with renegotiated terms. The Company and its subsidiaries adopt the May 2010 Improvement on IFRS 7 on 1 January 2011. These amendments have no material impact on the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information.
   
Amendments to IAS 34 ‘Interim financial reporting’ is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011. It emphasizes the existing disclosure principles in IAS 34 and adds further guidance to illustrate how to apply these principles. Greater emphasis has been placed on the disclosure principles for significant events and transactions. Additional requirements cover disclosure of changes to fair value measurement (if significant), and the need to update relevant information from the most recent annual report. These amendments did not result in any material impact on the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information.

Directors and certain senior management of the Company perform the function as chief operating decision makers (collectively referred to as the "senior management"). The senior management reviews the internal reporting of the Company and its subsidiaries in order to assess performance and allocate resources. The Company has determined the operating segments based on these reports. For the six months ended 30 June 2010, the operating segments of the Company were grouped into power segment and all other segments. Considering the developments of Singapore operations in late 2010, including the commencement of construction of a new generator, the Company expected a continuous increase in significance of the Singapore operations. Hence, the internal reporting was restructured and the Company grouped operating segments into PRC power segment, Singapore segment and all other segments (mainly including port and transportation operations). Therefore, comparative figures for the six months ended 30 June 2010 were restated.

Senior management assesses the performance of the operating segments based on a measure of profit before income tax expense under China Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises ("PRC GAAP") in related periods excluding dividend income received from available-for-sale financial assets and operating results of those centrally managed and resource allocation functions in headquarters. Other information provided, except as noted below, to the senior management of the Company is measured under PRC GAAP.

Segment assets exclude prepaid income tax, deferred income tax assets, available-for-sale financial assets and assets related to those centrally managed and resource allocation functions in headquarters that are not attributable to any operating segment ("corporate assets"). Segment liabilities exclude current income tax liabilities, deferred income tax liabilities and liabilities related to those centrally managed and resource allocation functions in headquarters that are not attributable to any operating segment ("corporate liabilities"). These are part of the reconciliation to total balance sheet assets and liabilities.

All sales among the operating segments were performed at market price or close to market price, and have been eliminated as internal transactions when preparing the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information.

INCOME TAX EXPENSE

No Hong Kong profits tax was provided for the six months ended 30 June 2011 (for the six months ended 30 June

 
61

 

2010: nil) as the Company and its subsidiaries had no estimated assessable profits arising in or deriving from Hong Kong.

Income tax expense of the Company and its subsidiaries has been provided on the estimated assessable profits for the period at their prevailing rates of taxation.

Upon the effective of the "Corporate Income Tax Law of the People’s Republic of China" on 1 January 2008, domestic subsidiaries with original applicable tax rate of 33% apply income tax rate of 25% from 1 January 2008 onwards. Domestic entities of the Company and its subsidiaries which originally enjoyed preferential tax treatments will transit to 25% gradually from 1 January 2008 onwards. Pursuant to Guo Fa [2007]39 document, starting from 1 January 2008, entities which originally enjoyed two-year tax exemption and three-year 50% reduction tax treatments, continue to follow the original tax laws, administrative regulations and relevant documents until respective expiration dates. However, those not being entitled to preferential tax treatment as a result of tax losses, the preferential period started from 2008 onwards.

For the six months ended 30 June 2011, the income tax rate applicable to Singapore subsidiaries is 17% (for the six months ended 30 June 2010: 17%).

For the six months ended 30 June 2011, the weighted average effective tax rate applicable to the Company and its subsidiaries is approximately 31.06% (for the six months ended 30 June 2010: 17.75%). The increase in weighted average effective tax rate was primarily attributable to decrease in tax credit relating to purchases of domestically manufactured equipment and tax losses of certain subsidiaries with no deferred income tax assets recognized.

21.
EARNINGS PER SHARE

The basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the consolidated net profit attributable to the equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of the Company’s outstanding ordinary shares during the period:

   
For the six months
ended 30 June
 
   
2011
   
2010
 
 
 
 
   
 
 
             
Consolidated net profit attributable to equity holders of the Company
    1,130,892       1,932,463  
Weighted average number of the Company’s outstanding ordinary shares (’000)
    14,055,383       12,055,383  
Basic earnings per share (RMB)
    0.08       0.16  
 
               


There was no dilutive effect on earnings per share since the Company had no dilutive potential ordinary shares for the six months ended 30 June 2011 and 2010.

Recognition and measurement


 
86

 

Financial assets are recognized initially at fair value when the Company and its subsidiaries become a party to the contractual provisions of a financial instrument. Transaction costs relating to financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are directly recorded in income statements as incurred. Transaction costs for other financial assets are included in the carrying amount of assets at initial recognition.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and available-for-sale are subsequently measured at fair value.

Changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recorded in the income statements in the current period as gain or loss from changes in fair value. Interest or cash dividends received during the period in which such financial assets are held and gain or loss on disposal of such assets are recorded in the income statements for the current period. The subsequent changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments are recorded in gain or loss from changes in fair value, except for the gain or loss arising from the effective portion of qualified hedging instruments of cash flow hedges being deferred in equity (refer to Note 2(7)(e)).

Except for impairment loss and translation differences on monetary financial assets, changes in the fair value of available-for-sale financial assets are recognized in equity. When these financial assets are derecognized, the accumulated fair value adjustments recognized in equity are included in the income statements for the current period. Dividends on available-for-sale equity instruments are recorded in investment income when the right of the Company and its subsidiaries to receive payments is established.

Loans and receivables are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

Financial assets (Cont’d)

(e)
Cash flow hedge

Cash flow hedge represents a hedge against the exposure to variability in cash flows where such cash flow is originated from a particular risk associated with a highly probable forecast transaction and could affect the income statements.

The hedged items of cash flow hedge are the designated items with respect to the risks associated with future cash flow changes in the Company and its subsidiaries. Hedging instruments are designated financial instruments with cash flows are expected to offset the cash flows of a hedged item.

The fair value of a hedged item is classified as a non-current asset or liability when the remaining maturity of the hedge item is more than 12 months.


 
87

 

The Company and its subsidiaries document their assessments, both at the inception of hedging and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting the changes in cash flows of the hedged items. The Company and its subsidiaries apply ratio analysis method to evaluate the prospective effectiveness of cash flow hedge.

Changes in the fair value of the effective portion of derivatives that are designated and qualified as cash flow hedges are recognized as a separate component in equity. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognized immediately in the income statements.

Amounts accumulated in equity are recycled to the income statements in the periods when the hedged item affects profit or loss. When the hedged forecast transaction results in the recognition of a non-financial asset, the gains and losses previously deferred in equity are transferred from equity and included in the initial measurement of the cost of the asset. When the Company and its subsidiaries expect all or a portion of net loss previously recognized in equity will not be recovered in future accounting periods, the irrecoverable portion will be charged to the income statements.

When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated, exercised, or when a hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the Company and its subsidiaries will stop hedge accounting. Any cumulative gain or loss previously recorded in equity remains in equity and is recycled to the income statements and initial recognition cost of non-financial assets when the forecast transaction occurs. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was previously recorded in equity is transferred to the income statements immediately.

Financial assets (Cont’d)

(f)
Impairment of financial assets

Except for financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, the Company and its subsidiaries assess the carrying amount of financial assets at balance sheet date. Provision for impairment is made when there is objective evidences indicating that a financial asset is impaired.

When there is a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of available-for-sale financial assets, accumulated loss in fair value that is previously recorded in shareholder’s equity should be recorded as impairment loss. Impairment loss on available-for-sale equity investments is reversed through equity when the fair value subsequently increases.

When financial assets carried at amortized cost are impaired, the carrying amount of the financial assets is reduced to present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred). The impairment amount is recognized as assets impairment loss for the current period. If there is objective evidence that the value of the financial assets is recovered as a result of changes in circumstances occurring after the impairment loss was originally recognized, the originally recognized

 
88

 

impairment loss is reversed through the income statements.

(g)
Derecognition of financial assets

Financial assets are derecognized when: (a) the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired; or (b) all risks and rewards relating to the ownership of the financial assets have been transferred; or (c) the Company and its subsidiaries have neither transferred nor retained all risks and rewards relating to the ownership but gave up control on the financial assets.

The difference between book value and consideration received and accumulated changes in fair value recorded in equity are recognized in the income statements for the current period.

2.
PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES (CONT’D)

(8)
Receivables

Receivables including accounts receivable, notes receivable and other receivables, etc. are recognized initially at fair value.

When there is objective evidence that the Company and its subsidiaries will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables, impairment test is performed on individual account and related provision for doubtful accounts is made based on the shortfall between carrying amounts and respective present value of estimated future cash flow. The carrying amounts of the receivables are reduced through the use of allowance accounts, and the amount of the provision is recognized in the income statements as assets impairment loss. When a receivable is uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account for receivable. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are recognized in the income statements as credit against assets impairment loss.

(9)
Inventories

Inventories include fuel, materials for repairs and maintenance and spare parts, etc. and are stated at lower of cost and net realizable values.

Inventories are initially recorded at cost and are charged to fuel costs or repairs and maintenance according to the actual situation respectively when used, or capitalized to fixed assets when installed, as appropriate, using weighted average cost basis. Cost of inventories mainly includes costs of purchase and transportation costs.

When the forecast transaction that is hedged results in the recognition of the inventory, the gains and losses previously deferred in equity are transferred from equity and included in the initial measurement of the cost of the inventory.

Provision for inventory obsolescence is determined by the excess of cost over its net realizable value on an item-by-item basis. For inventories that are voluminous and at relatively low unit price, provision is determined based on individual categories. Net realizable values are determined based on the estimated selling price less estimated conversion costs during power generation, estimated selling expenses and related taxes in the ordinary course of

business.

The Company and its subsidiaries apply perpetual inventory system.

Long-term equity investments

Long-term equity investments include equity investments in subsidiaries, jointly controlled entities, associates and long-term equity investments in entities where i) the Company and its subsidiaries have no control, joint control or significant influence, ii) there is no quoted price in an active market, and iii) the fair value of such investments cannot be reliably measured.

(a)
Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are investees over which the Company have the power to exercise control, i.e. the power to govern the financial and operating policies to obtain benefits from the operating activities of the investees. When determining whether the Company and its subsidiaries exercise control over an investee, the impact from potential voting rights of the investee, such as currently convertible bonds and exercisable warrants, etc. is taken into account. The investments in subsidiaries are accounted for using cost method in the financial statements. They are adjusted in accordance with equity method when preparing the consolidated financial statements.

If the Company purchases further interests of its subsidiaries from the minority shareholders, the consideration paid is compared with the newly-acquired proportionate share of net assets of the subsidiary carried based on the fair value exercise on the acquisition date. Any excess or shortfall is recorded in shareholders’ equity. The gain or loss on disposals or deemed disposals of a portion of equity interests in subsidiaries to minority shareholders is recorded in shareholders’ equity.

(b)
Jointly controlled entities and associates

Jointly controlled entities are investees over which the Company is able to exercise joint control together with other parties. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control over an economic activity whereby no party to the agreement is able to act unilaterally to control the activity of the entity. It applies equity method to investment to jointly controlled entities.

Associates are investees over which the Company and its subsidiaries, in substance, have significant influence on the financial and operation decisions. Significant influence refers to the right of participation in investee’s financial and operating policies without necessarily having full control or joint control over these policies with other parties. It applies equity method to investment to associates.

Other long-term equity investments

Other long-term equity investments are accounted for using cost method where i) the Company and its subsidiaries have no control, joint control, or significant influence, ii) there is no quoted price in an active market, and iii) the fair value of the investments cannot be reliably measured.

(d)
Investment cost recognition and subsequent measurement

Long-term equity investments accounted for using cost method are measured at initial investment cost. Cash dividends or income appropriation declared by the investees are recognized as investment income in the current period.

The excess of initial investment cost of long-term equity investments measured using equity method of accounting over the proportionate share of fair value of net identifiable assets of the investee acquired is recognized as long-term equity investment cost at initial investment cost. Any shortfall of the initial investment cost to the proportionate share of the fair value of identifiable net assets of investee acquired is recognized in current period profit and loss and long-term investment cost is adjusted accordingly.

When applying equity method, the Company and its subsidiaries adjust net profit or loss of the investees, including the fair value adjustments on the net identifiable assets of the investees and the adjustments to align with the accounting policies of the Company and different periods. Current period investment income is then recognized based on the proportionate share of the Company and its subsidiaries in the investees’ net profit or loss. Net losses of investees are recognized to the extent of book value of long-term equity investments and any other constituting long-term equity investments in investees in substance. The Company and its subsidiaries will continue to recognize investment losses and measure them as provision if they bear additional obligations which meet the recognition criteria under the accounting standard of provisions. The Company and its subsidiaries adjust the carrying amount of the investment and directly recognize into capital surplus based on their proportionate share on movements of shareholders’ equity of the investees other than net profit or loss, given there is no change in shareholding percentage. When the investees appropriate profit or declare dividends, the book value of long-term equity investments are reduced correspondingly by the proportionate share of the distribution. Unrealized profit or loss from transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries and the investees is eliminated to the extent of interest of the Company and its subsidiaries in the investees. Loss from transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries and the investees is not eliminated when there is evidence for asset impairment.

Impairment of long-term equity investments

When the recoverable amounts of investments in subsidiaries, jointly controlled entities or associates are less than its book value, the carrying amounts are reduced to recoverable amounts. Please refer to Note 2(15) for details.

For other long-term equity investments, impairment loss is recognized in the income statements based on the shortfall between carrying amounts and the present value of such investments (deriving from discounting of future cash flow of similar investments at current market return rate).

(11)
Fixed assets and depreciation

Fixed assets consist of ports facilities, buildings, electric utility plant in service, transportation facilities and others. Fixed assets acquired or constructed are initially recognized at cost. Fixed assets obtained during reorganization were initially recorded at their appraisal value approved by relevant stated-owned assets administration authorities.

Subsequent costs about fixed assets are included in the asset’s carrying amount only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and its subsidiaries and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized. Other subsequent expenditures are all charged in the current period profit or loss when they are incurred.

Depreciation of fixed assets is provided based on book value less estimated residual value over estimated useful life using straight-line method. For those impaired fixed assets, depreciation is provided based on book value after deducting impairment provision over estimated useful life.

At the end of each year, the Company and its subsidiaries review the estimated useful life, estimated residual value and the depreciation method of the fixed assets for adjustment when necessary.

Fixed assets is derecognized when they are disposed of, or expected that cannot bring economic benefit through use or disposal. The amount of disposal income arising from sale, transfer, disposal or write-off of fixed assets less book value and related tax expenses is recorded in the income statements.

The carrying amount of fixed assets is written down immediately to its recoverable amount when its carrying amount is greater than its recoverable amount. Please refer to Note 2(15).

(12)
Construction-in-progress

Construction-in-progress is recorded at cost. Cost comprises construction expenditures, installation expenditures, and other expenditures necessary for the purpose of preparing the assets for their intended use and those borrowing costs eligible for capitalization. Construction-in-progress is transferred to fixed assets when the assets are ready for their intended use and depreciation begins from the following month.

When the recoverable amount of construction-in-progress becomes lower than its carrying amount, construction-in-progress is impaired to its recoverable amount (Note 2(15)).

(13)
Intangible assets and amortization

Intangible assets, which include land use right, power generation licence and mining rights, etc., are initially recognized at cost. The Company’s intangible assets obtained during reorganization were initially recorded at their appraisal value approved by relevant stated-owned assets administration authorities.

Intangible assets with definite useful lives, except for mining rights, are amortized using the straight-line method over their useful lives. The expected useful lives and amortization method applied to intangible assets with definite useful lives are reviewed at each financial year-end and adjusted when necessary. The mining rights will be amortized based on the units of production method from the commencement of production of coal mine.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized. The useful lives of intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are reviewed by the Company and its subsidiaries in each accounting period.

When the recoverable amount of intangible assets becomes lower than their carrying amount, the intangible assets are impaired to their recoverable amount (Note 2(15)).

(14)
Goodwill


 
93

 

Goodwill is the cost of business combination not under common control over the proportionate share of the fair value of the net identifiable assets on the acquisition date. Goodwill arising from business combinations is presented separately on the consolidated financial statements.

Separately presented goodwill in the consolidated financial statements is tested for impairment at least annually. When performing impairment test, the carrying amount of goodwill is allocated to assets group or group of assets groups that are expected to benefit from the synergies arising from the business combination. The Company and its subsidiaries allocate goodwill to assets group or group of assets groups primarily based on region where they operate. Please refer to Note 2(15) for the accounting policy of impairment of assets group or group of assets groups. Goodwill is presented at cost less accumulated impairment loss.

Impairment of long-term assets

Separately presented goodwill in the consolidated financial statements and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are tested for impairment at least annually regardless of whether there are indications of impairment. Fixed assets, construction-in-progress, intangible assets with definite useful lives and long-term equity investments are tested for impairment when there are any indicators of impairment as of the balance sheet date. If the result of impairment test shows that the recoverable amount of asset is less than its book value, that difference is recognized as impairment provision. Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less cost to sell of the asset and present value of its expected future cash flows. Asset impairment is calculated and recognized on individual asset basis. If it is difficult to estimate recoverable amount for the individual assets, the recoverable amount is determined based on the recoverable amount of the assets group or group of assets groups to which the asset belongs. An assets group is the smallest group of assets that independently generates cash flows.

The long-term assets impairment referred above cannot be reversed after recognition even if the amount is recovered subsequently.

(16)
Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are classified as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss and other financial liabilities at initial recognition. The Company and its subsidiaries’ financial liabilities are mainly held-for trading financial liabilities, payables, loans and bonds payables.

Payables, including accounts payable, notes payable, other payables and long-term payables, are initially recognized at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

Loans and bonds payables are initially recognized at fair value less transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

Financial liabilities due within one year (including one year) are classified as current liabilities; long-term financial liabilities to be mature within one year (including one year) from balance sheet date are classified as current portion of

Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs incurred which are directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of assets that needs a substantially long period of time to get ready for its intended use, are capitalized and recorded in the costs of the assets when the capital expenditure and borrowing costs have been incurred and the activities relating to the acquisition and construction that are necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use have commenced. The capitalization of the borrowing costs is ceased when the asset under acquisition or construction is ready for its intended use, and the borrowing costs incurred thereafter are expensed off. If the acquisition or construction of an asset is interrupted abnormally and the interruption lasts for more than 3 months, the capitalization of the borrowing costs is suspended until the acquisition or construction is resumed. For specific borrowings for the acquisition or construction of an asset eligible for capitalization, the capitalized amount of interests is determined based on the interest expense incurred after deducting any interest income earned from the deposits or investment income from the temporary investment funded by the unused borrowing balance. For general borrowings used for acquisition or construction of an asset eligible for capitalization, the capitalized interest is determined by multiplying the weighted average excess of accumulated capital expenditure over specific borrowings by the capitalization rate of such general borrowings. The capitalization rate is determined according to the weighted average interest rate of the general borrowings. Other borrowing costs are expensed in the current period.

(18)
Employee benefits

Employee benefits include all expenditures relating to the employees for their services.

The Company and its subsidiaries recognize employee benefits as liabilities during the accounting period when employees render services and allocate to related cost of assets and expenses based on beneficiaries.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the differences arising between tax bases of assets and liabilities and book value (temporary differences). For deductible tax losses or tax credit that can be brought forward in accordance with tax laws for deduction of taxable income in subsequent years, it is considered as temporary differences and related deferred income tax assets are recognized accordingly. No deferred income tax liability is recognized for temporary difference arising from initial recognition of goodwill. For those temporary differences arising from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a non-business combination transaction that affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (or deductible loss) at the time of the transaction, no deferred income tax asset and liability is recognized.

 
95

 


The Company and its subsidiaries recognize deferred income tax assets to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available to offset the deductible temporary difference, deductible tax loss and tax credit.

As of the balance sheet date, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or liability is settled.

Deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are offset when all the conditions below are met:

(a)
The Company and its subsidiaries have the legal enforceable right to settle current income tax assets and current income tax liabilities;

(b)
Deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are related to the income tax levied by the same tax authority of the Company and its subsidiaries.

Business combinations

Business combinations under common control refers to combinations where the combining entities are controlled by the same party or parties before and after the combination and that control is not transitory; business combinations not under common control refers to combinations where the combining entities are not controlled by the same party or parties before and after the combination.

(a)
Business combinations under common control

The acquirer measures both the consideration paid and net assets obtained at their carrying amounts. The difference between the carrying amounts of the net assets obtained and the carrying amount of the consideration paid is recorded in capital surplus (share premium), with any excess over capital surplus (share premium) being adjusted against undistributed profits. Any direct transaction cost attributable to the business combination is recorded in the income statements in the current period. However, the handling fees, commissions and other expenses incurred for the issuance of equity instruments or bonds for the business combination are recorded in the initial measurement of the equity instruments and bonds respectively.

(b)
Business combinations not under common control

The cost of a combination is measured as the fair value of the assets given and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of acquisition. Any direct transaction cost attributable to the combination is recorded in the income statement for the current period. However, the handling fees, commissions and other expenses incurred for the issuance of equity instruments or bonds for the business combination are recorded in the initial measurement of the equity instruments and bonds respectively. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the combination date. The excess of the combination cost over the fair value of the Company and its subsidiaries’ share in the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the combination cost is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, it is recognized in the income statements.

The scope of consolidated financial statements includes the Company and its subsidiaries.

Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date when control is transferred to the Company. They are deconsolidated from the date when control ceases. All the significant intra-group balances, transactions and unrealized profit or loss are eliminated in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. The portion of the shareholders’ equity and net profit or loss of the subsidiaries, which is not attributable to the parent company, is separately presented as minority interests in the shareholders’ equity and net profit in the consolidated financial statements.

When there is any inconsistency on the accounting policies or financial period adopted between subsidiaries and the Company, the financial statements of subsidiaries are adjusted according to the accounting policies and financial period adopted by the Company.

For subsidiaries acquired under business combinations involving entities not under common control, when preparing consolidated financial statements, adjustments are made on the financial statements of subsidiaries based on the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired at the acquisition date. For subsidiaries acquired under business combinations of common control, when preparing consolidated financial statements, the consolidated financial statements include the assets, liabilities, operating results and cash flows of such subsidiaries from the earliest period presented as if the business combinations had occurred at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented and the net profit of the acquire realized before combination date is separately disclosed in the consolidated income statements.

Determination of the fair value of financial instruments


 
99

 

When an active market exists for a financial instrument, fair value is determined based on quoted prices in the active market. When no such an active market exists, fair value is determined by using valuation techniques. Valuation techniques include making reference to the prices used by knowledgeable and willing parties in a recent transaction, the current fair value of other financial assets that are same in substance, discounted cash flow method and option pricing model, etc. When applying valuation techniques, the Company and its subsidiaries use market parameters, rather than specific parameters of the Company and its subsidiaries, as much as possible.

(29)
Critical accounting estimates and judgments

Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

The Company and its subsidiaries make estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial period are discussed below:

(a)
Accounting estimates on impairment of goodwill and power generation licence

The Company and its subsidiaries perform test annually whether power generation licence and goodwill have suffered any impairment, in accordance with the accounting policy stated in Note 2(13) and 2(14).The recoverable amounts of assets group or group of assets groups are the present value of future cash flow. These calculations require the use of estimates. It is reasonably possible, based on existing knowledge, that outcomes within the next financial period that are different from assumptions could require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of goodwill and power generation licence.

(b)
Useful life of power generation licence

As at year end, management of the Company and its subsidiaries considered the estimated useful lives for its power generation licence as indefinite. This estimate is based on the expected renewal of power generation licence without significant restriction and cost, together with the consideration on related future cash flows and the expectation of management in continuous operations. Based on existing knowledge, that outcomes within the next financial period that are different from assumptions could require a change on carrying amount of power generation licence.

Critical accounting estimates and judgments (Cont’d)

(c)
Useful lives of fixed assets

Management of the Company decided the estimated useful lives of fixed assets and respective depreciation. This accounting estimate is based on the expected wears and tears incurred during power

generation. Wears and tears can be significantly different after renovation each time. When the useful lives differ from the original estimated useful lives, management will adjust the estimated useful lives accordingly. It is possible that the estimates made based on existing experience are different to the actual outcomes within the next financial period and could cause a material adjustment to the carrying amount of fixed assets.

(d)
Estimated impairment of fixed assets

The Company and its subsidiaries perform impairment test on fixed assets to determine whether certain fixed assets have suffered any impairment whenever indicators of impairment exist. In accordance with Note 2(15), an impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its recoverable amount. It is reasonably possible, based on existing knowledge, that outcomes within the next financial period that are different from assumptions could require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of fixed assets.

(e)
Restraint in construction of new power plants

Receiving the final approval from National Development and Reform Commission ("NDRC") on certain power plant construction projects of the Company and its subsidiaries is a critical estimate and judgment of the management of the Company. Such an estimate and judgment is based on initial approval documents received as well as the understanding of the projects. Based on historical experience, the management believes that the Company and its subsidiaries will receive final approval from NDRC on the related power plant projects. Deviation from the estimate and judgment could result in significant adjustment to the carrying amount of fixed assets, construction-in-progress and construction materials.

3.
TAXATION

As at 30 June 2011, a long-term loan of RMB 15 million of Luoyuanwan Pier is secured by land use rights with net book value amounting to RMB34,360,263; a long-term loan of RMB 87 million of Luoyuanwan Harbour is secured by territorial waters use right with net book value amounting to RMB87,271,648 (As at 31 December 2010, Qingdao Port, a subsidiary of the Company used land use right with net book value amounting to RMB28,306,601 as collateral against long term loan of RMB30 million.) (Note 5(28)(b)).

The Company acquired the power generation licence as part of the business combination with Tuas Power. As the power generation licence is expected to be renewed without significant restriction and cost, with the consideration of related future cash flows generated and the expected continuous operations of management, such a power generation licence is considered to have indefinite useful life.

SEGMENT REPORTING

Directors and certain senior management of the Company perform the function as chief operating decision makers (collectively referred to as the "senior management"). The senior management reviews the internal reporting of the Company and its subsidiaries in order to assess performance and allocate resources. The Company has determined the operating segments based on these reports. For the six months ended 30 June 2010, the operating segments of the Company included power segment and all other segments. Considering the developments of Singapore operations in late 2010, including the commencement of construction of a new generator, the Company expected a continuous increase in significance of the Singapore operations. Hence, the internal reporting was restructured and the Company grouped operating segments into PRC power segment, Singapore segment and all other segments (mainly including port and transportation operations). Therefore, comparative figures for the six months ended 30 June 2010 were restated.

Senior management assesses the performance of the operating segments based on a measure of profit / (loss) before income tax expense in related periods excluding dividend income received from available-for-sale financial assets and operating results of those centrally managed and resource allocation functions in headquarters.

Segment assets exclude prepaid income tax, deferred income tax assets, available-for-sale financial assets, and assets related to those centrally managed and resource allocation functions in headquarters that are not attributable to any operating segment ("corporate assets"). Segment liabilities exclude current income tax liabilities, deferred income tax liabilities and liabilities related to those centrally managed and resource allocation functions in headquarters that are not attributable to any operating segment ("corporate liabilities"). These are part of the reconciliation to total balance sheet assets and liabilities.

All sales among the operating segments were performed at market price or close to market price and have been eliminated as internal transactions when preparing the consolidated financial statements.

(a)
Effect of recording the amounts received in advance of previous years

In accordance with the tariff setting mechanism applicable to certain power plants of the Company in previous years, certain power plants of the Company receive payments in advance in the previous years (calculated at 1% of the original cost of fixed assets) as the major repair and maintenance cost of these power plants. Such receipts in advance are recognized as liabilities under IFRS and are recognized as revenue when

 
184

 

the repairs and maintenance is performed and the liabilities are extinguished. In accordance with PRC GAAP, when preparing the financial statements, revenue is computed based on actual power sold and the tariff currently set by the State, no such amounts are recorded.

(b)
Difference in the recognition of housing benefits to the employees of the Company and its subsidiaries in previous years

The Company and its subsidiaries once provided staff quarters to the employees of the Company and its subsidiaries and sold such staff quarters to the employees of the Company and its subsidiaries at preferential prices set by the local housing reform office. Difference between cost of the staff quarters and proceeds from the employees represented the housing losses, and was borne by the Company and its subsidiaries.

Under Previous Accounting Standards and Accounting System ("Previous PRC GAAP") , in accordance with the relevant regulations issued by the Ministry of Finance, such housing losses incurred by the Company and its subsidiaries are fully charged to non-operating expenses in previous years. Under IFRS, such housing losses incurred by the Company and its subsidiaries are recognized on a straight-line basis over the estimated remaining average service lives of the employees.

(c)
Effect of depreciation on the capitalization of borrowing costs in previous years

In previous years, under Previous PRC GAAP, the scope of capitalization of borrowing costs was limited to specific borrowings, and thus, borrowing costs arising from general borrowings were not capitalized. In accordance with IFRS, the Company and its subsidiaries capitalized borrowing on general borrowing used for the purpose of obtaining qualifying assets in addition to the capitalization of borrowing costs on specific borrowings. From 1 January 2007 onwards, the Company and its subsidiaries adopted PRC GAAP No. 17 prospectively, the current adjustments represent the related depreciation on capitalized borrowing costs included in the cost of related assets under IFRS in previous years.

Differences in accounting treatment on business combinations under common control

Huaneng Group is the parent company of HIPDC, which in turn is also the ultimate parent of the Company. The Company carried out a series of acquisitions from Huaneng Group and HIPDC in previous years. As the acquired power companies and plants and the Company were under common control of Huaneng Group before and after the acquisitions, such acquisitions are regarded as business combinations under common control.

In accordance with PRC GAAP, under common control business combination, the assets and liabilities acquired in business combinations are measured at the carrying amounts of the acquirees on the acquisition date. The difference between carrying amounts of the net assets acquired and the consideration paid is adjusted to equity account of the acquirer. The operating results for all periods presented are retrospectively restated as if the current structure and operations resulting from the acquisition had been in existence since the beginning of the earliest year presented, with financial data of previously separate entities consolidated. The cash consideration paid by the Company is treated as an equity transaction in the year of acquisition.

For the business combination occurred prior to 1 January 2007, in accordance with Previous PRC GAAP, when equity interests acquired is less than 100%, the assets and liabilities of the acquirees are measured at their carrying amounts. The excess of consideration over the proportionate share of the carrying amounts of the net assets acquired was recorded as equity investment difference and amortized on a straight-line basis for not more than 10 years. When acquiring the entire equity, the entire assets and liabilities are accounted for in a method similar to purchase accounting. Goodwill arising from such transactions is amortized over the estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis. On 1 January 2007, in accordance with PRC GAAP, the unamortized equity investment differences and goodwill arising from business combinations under common control were written off against undistributed profits.

Under IFRS, the Company and its subsidiaries adopted the purchase method to account for the acquisitions above. The assets and liabilities acquired in acquisitions were recorded at fair value by the acquirer. The excess of acquisition cost over the proportionate share of fair value of net identifiable assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested annually for impairment and carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. The operating results of the acquirees are consolidated in the operating results of the Company and its subsidiaries from the acquisition dates onwards.

As mentioned above, the differences in accounting treatment under PRC GAAP and IFRS on business combinations under common control affect both equity and profit. Meanwhile, due to different measurement basis of the assets acquired, depreciation and amortization in the period

subsequent to the acquisition will be affected which will also affect the equity and profit or loss upon subsequent disposals of such investments.
