Financial risk management objectives and policies | 32. Financial risk management objectives and policies The Group’s principal financial liabilities comprise loans and borrowings, trade and other payables and other financial liability arising from a put option to a non-controlling interest. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the Group’s operations. The Group has trade and other receivables, and cash and bank deposits that derive directly from its operations. The Group is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s senior management oversees the management of these risks. There has been no change to the Group’s exposure to these financial risks or the manner in which it manages and measures the risks. Market risk Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk and other price risk, such as equity price risk. The sensitivity analyses in the following sections relate to the position as of December 31, 2023 and 2024. The sensitivity analyses have been prepared on the basis that the amount of net debt, the ratio of fixed to floating interest rates of the debt and the proportion of financial instruments in foreign currencies are all constant at December 31, 2024. The analyses exclude the impact of movements in market variables on provisions and on the non-financial assets and liabilities of foreign operations. 32. Financial risk management objectives and policies (cont’d) Interest rate risk Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Group’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates to the Group’s interest-bearing loans and borrowings from banks. The interest-bearing loans and borrowings of the Group are disclosed in Note 26. The Group manages its interest rate risk by having a mixture of fixed and variable rates for its loans and borrowings. Interest rate sensitivity The sensitivity analyses below have been determined based on the exposure to interest rates for interest-bearing loans and borrowings at the end of the reporting period and the stipulated change taking place at the beginning of the year and held constant throughout the reporting period in the case of instruments that have floating rates. A 50 basis points increase or decrease is used and represents management’s assessment of the possible change in interest rates. If interest rate had been 50 (2023: 50) basis points higher or lower and all other variables were held constant, the profit before tax for the year ended December 31, 2024 of the Group would decrease/increase by RMB 12.5 million (US$1.7 million) (2023: decrease/increase by RMB 12.7 million) arising from interest expenses on interest-bearing loans and borrowings. Foreign currency exchange rate risk Foreign currency exchange rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The Group’s exposure to this risk relates primarily to the cash and bank balances, purchases and sales that are denominated in currencies other than the respective functional currencies of the entities within the Group. The currencies giving rise to this risk are primarily the Singapore Dollar, US Dollar and Euro. Foreign currency translation exposure is managed by incurring debt in the operating currency so that where possible operating cash flows can be primarily used to repay obligations in the local currency. This also has the effect of minimizing the exchange differences recorded against income, as the exchange differences on the net investment are recorded directly against equity. The Group’s exposures to foreign currency are as follows:

Financial risk management objectives and policies (cont’d) Foreign currency exchange rate risk (cont’d) Foreign currency exchange rate risk sensitivity A 10% strengthening of the following major currencies against the functional currency of each of the Group’s entities at the reporting date would increase/(decrease) profit before tax by the amounts shown below. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remain constant.

Credit risk Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Group is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks and financial institutions. Trade receivables Customer credit risk is managed by each business unit subject to the Group’s established policy, procedures and control relating to customer credit risk management. Credit limits are established for all customers based on internal rating criteria. Management has a credit policy in place and the exposure to credit risk is monitored on an ongoing basis. Credit evaluations are performed for all customers requiring credit. An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date using a provision matrix. The provision rates are determined based on days past due for groupings of various customer segments with similar loss patterns (i.e. by profiles of the customers). The calculation reflects the reasonable and supportable information that is available at the reporting date about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. Generally, trade receivables are written-off after assessment and are not subject to enforcement activity. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of each class of financial assets disclosed in Note 14. The Group’s share of bills receivables of a joint venture which was used as collateral as security is disclosed in Note 5. 32. Financial risk management objectives and policies (cont’d) Credit risk (cont'd) Set out below is the information about the credit risk exposure on the Group’s trade receivables using a provision matrix:
