Acquisition of Jiangsu Five Star
In April 2019, the Group invested RMB1,274,257,000 with a combination of cash and assumption of the seller’s debt as consideration to acquire ordinary shares of Jiangsu Five Star, a leading offline retailer of home appliances and consumer electronics, from its existing shareholder (the “Seller”), in exchange for 46% of Jiangsu Five Star’s total equity interest. The Group also provided a fifteen months interest-bearing loan of RMB1,024,946,000 to the Seller and has the rights to purchase additional shares.
In April 2020, the Group acquired additional 37% equity interest in Jiangsu Five Star by converting the loan of RMB1,024,946,000 aforementioned. A gain of RMB441,677,000 in relation to the revaluation of the previously held equity interests was recorded in “share of results of equity investees” in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income/(loss) for the year ended December 31, 2020. The fair value of the previously held equity interests was estimated based on the equity value of Jiangsu Five Star, which is estimated by applying an income approach.
