<p style="text-align: justify; margin-left: 0pt; text-indent: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; FONT: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">We have pleasure in providing you the semi-annual report of The China Fund, Inc.

<p style="text-align: justify; margin-left: 0pt; text-indent: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; FONT: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">The Period proved bumpy in terms of stock market performance. Two primary factors dominated market actions: a rally mid-period in the expectation of encouraging trade talks emanating from the negotiations between the Chinese and US, and the intermittent, rather than decisive policy actions on the domestic front. However, expectations were subsequently deflated post the President&#8217;s &#8216;Liberation&#8217; speech with implications of the imposition of steep government tariffs.

<p style="text-align: justify; margin-left: 0pt; text-indent: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; FONT: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">This environment resulted in a disappointing investment return for the Fund through the Period which resulted in a negative 3.06% change in net asset value (&#8220;NAV&#8221;) relative to a 3.22% gain for the Fund&#8217;s benchmark, the MSCI China All Share Index. Over the trailing 12 month-period, the Fund&#8217;s NAV increased 16.19% as compared to its benchmark return of 18.26%.

<p style="text-align: justify; margin-left: 0pt; text-indent: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; FONT: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">In line with similar investment companies on both sides of the &#8216;pond&#8217;, the Fund&#8217;s stock price discount relative to its NAV has continued to trade at unacceptably high levels, frequently of late at more than 15%, although this figure has narrowed and, at time of writing, stands at approximately 12%. Your Board has over many years endeavoured to reduce this discount through the repurchase of stock and recently increased the level of such repurchase activity.
</p>
<p style="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: center">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify; margin-left: 0pt; text-indent: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; FONT: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">Over the longer term, a combination of the Fund&#8217;s continuing repurchase operations and its obligation to payout dividend income to avoid punitive tax charges has prevented the Fund from growing, which in turn has reduced its free float and stock market liquidity. Whilst your Board has consistently and carefully managed the Fund&#8217;s expenses, as evidenced by their declining trend over the years, the total expense ratio has nevertheless increased due to a steady decline in the Fund&#8217;s overall assets under management. These factors coupled with the innovation of new product within the China space has undoubtedly put pressure on the Fund and its structure.

<p style="text-align: justify; margin-left: 0pt; text-indent: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; FONT: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">Chinese equities posted a gain in the six months ended April 30, 2025, supported by a rally in technology stocks in February following the breakthrough success of the DeepSeek open-source artificial intelligence (AI) platform which reignited investor interest in China&#8217;s innovation capability.

<p style="text-align: justify; margin-left: 0pt; text-indent: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; FONT: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">In the first half of the period, equities fell on concerns over China&#8217;s economic recovery and that a second Trump administration may bring new geopolitical and trade tensions. During the second half, equities delivered a strong return, helped by the tech rally as well as the public backing of private enterprise by China&#8217;s leadership. However, sentiment deteriorated as China&#8217;s economy failed to show signs of a wider recovery and the U.S. imposed reciprocal tariffs. A subsequent tit-for-tat escalation of duties between the two countries raised the specter of an effective trade embargo and the disruption it would cause to China&#8217;s growth.

At the company level, there were some robust reports in the earnings season, however, earnings downgrades continued for companies more directly tied to the domestic economy.

<p style="text-align: justify; margin-left: 0pt; text-indent: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; FONT: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">For the six months ended April 30, 2025, China Fund, Inc. returned -3.06% while its benchmark, the MSCI China All Shares Index, returned 3.22% over the same period. From a sector perspective, the top three contributors to relative performance were energy due to stock selection, utilities due to zero allocation, and health care due to an underweight allocation and stock selection. The top three detractors were consumer discretionary, information technology (IT) and real estate due to stock selection.

<p style="text-align: justify; margin-left: 0pt; text-indent: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; FONT: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">Turning to individual holdings, among the biggest contributors to absolute performance during the period was Tencent Holdings, an online gaming and social media conglomerate. Tencent&#8217;s outperformance was supported by recovery of fund flows into China&#8217;s equity market, which benefited blue chip names such as Tencent. On the other hand, Meituan, an e-commerce platform, was one of the biggest detractors. The company underperformed due to concerns about intensified competition in the food delivery space as JD.com decided to more aggressively move into the segment.

<p style="text-align: justify; margin-left: 0pt; text-indent: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; FONT: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">As the period drew to a close, it seemed plausible that China&#8217;s leadership was prepared for a drawn-out standoff with the U.S. However, we don&#8217;t discount the possibility of moves to de-escalate the situation and the emergence of agreements between the two sides.

<p style="text-align: justify; margin-left: 0pt; text-indent: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; FONT: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">Overall, we believe the health and recovery of China&#8217;s domestic economy is the biggest factor that will influence and support sustainable returns in the market and we remain attuned to that. We view the government&#8217;s increasingly pro-business stance as a positive, potentially signaling the start of a long-term cycle where private entrepreneurs regain confidence to invest in China&#8217;s economy.

(the &#8220;Fund&#8221;) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Maryland on April 28, 1992, and is a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the &#8220;1940 Act&#8221;). The Fund&#8217;s investment objective is long-term capital appreciation which it seeks to achieve by investing primarily in equity securities (i) of companies for which the principal securities trading market is in the People&#8217;s Republic of China (&#8220;China&#8221;), (ii) of companies for which the principal securities trading market is outside of China, or constituting direct equity investments in companies organized outside of China, that in both cases derive at least 50% of their revenues from goods or services sold or produced, or have at least 50% of their assets, in China and (iii) constituting direct equity investments in companies organized in China (&#8220;Direct Investments&#8221;). The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The Fund&#8217;s investment manager is Matthews International Capital Management, LLC (&#8220;Matthews Asia&#8221; or the &#8220;Investment Manager&#8221;).

Listed securities with no such sales price and unlisted securities are valued at the mean between the current bid and asked prices, if any, from brokers. Short-term investments having maturities of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost (original purchase cost as adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount) which when combined with accrued interest approximates market value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are valued at fair value in good faith by or at the direction of the Board of Directors (the &#8220;Board&#8221;) in accordance with the Fund&#8217;s Valuation Procedures. For securities listed on non-North American exchanges, the Fund fair values those securities daily using fair value factors provided by a third-party pricing service if certain thresholds determined by the Board are met. Direct Investments and derivatives investments, if any, are valued at fair value as determined by or at the direction of the Board based on financial and other information supplied by the Direct Investment Manager or a third-party pricing service.</FONT><FONT STYLE="font-weight: normal; font-style: normal;">

(&#8220;BBH&#8221;) as custodian to certain qualified brokers, except those securities which the Fund specifically identifies as not being available. By lending its investment securities, the Fund attempts to increase its net investment income through the receipt of interest on the loan. Any gain or loss in the market price of the securities loaned that might occur and any interest or dividends declared during the term of the loan would accrue to the account of the Fund. Risks of delay in recovery of the securities or even loss of rights in the collateral may occur should the borrower of the securities fail financially. Upon entering into a securities lending transaction, the Fund receives cash as collateral in an amount equal to or exceeding 100% of the current market value of the loaned securities with respect to securities of the U.S. government or its agencies, 102% of the current market value of the loaned securities with respect to U.S. securities and 105% of the current market value of the loaned securities with respect to foreign securities. Any cash received as collateral is generally invested by BBH, acting in its capacity as securities lending agent (the &#8220;Agent&#8221;), in the Fidelity Investments Money Market Government Portfolio. A portion of the dividends received on the collateral may be rebated to the borrower of the securities and the remainder is split between the Agent and the Fund.

Foreign currencies, investments and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent net gains and losses from the disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains and losses realized between the trade dates and settlement dates of security transactions, and the difference between the amount of net investment income accrued and the U.S. dollar amount actually received. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included in realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments. Net unrealized foreign currency gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities, as a result of changes in exchange rates.

Direct Investments are generally restricted and do not have a readily available resale market. Because of the absence of any public trading market for these investments, the Fund may take longer to liquidate these positions than would be the case for publicly traded securities. Although these securities may be resold in privately negotiated transactions, the prices on these sales could be less than those originally paid by the Fund. Issuers whose securities are not publicly traded may not be subject to public disclosure and other investor protections requirements applicable to publicly traded securities. At April 30, 2025, the Fund did not hold Direct Investments.

Accordingly, no provision for federal income tax is necessary. As of and during the period ended April 30, 2025, the Fund did not have a liability for any uncertain tax positions. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to tax liabilities as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. For the previous three years the Fund remains subject to examination by the Fund&#8217;s major tax jurisdictions, which include the United States of America and the State of Maryland. The Fund may be subject to taxes imposed by governments of countries in which it invests. Such taxes are generally based on either income or gains earned or repatriated. The Fund accrues and applies such taxes to net investment income, net realized gains and net unrealized gains as income and/or gains are earned.

Matthews Asia receives a fee, computed and accrued daily and paid monthly at an annual rate of 0.70% if assets exceed $150 million and 0.80% if assets do not exceed $150 million. Matthews Asia has agreed to continue to voluntarily waive a portion of the management fee it receives from the Fund by reducing the management fee rate applied when the Fund&#8217;s monthly average assets are less than $150 million from 0.80% to 0.75%. Matthews Asia has agreed to maintain the fee waiver (i) for a period of one year from February 1, 2025, or (ii) until the Fund&#8217;s investment performance exceeds that of the Fund&#8217;s performance benchmark, the MSCI China All Shares Index (the &#8220;Index&#8221;), for the period from January 1, 2023 through the end of the second month after which the Fund&#8217;s performance first exceeds the Index&#8217;s performance, whichever occurs first. Upon the occurrence of (i) or (ii) above, the fee waiver will terminate without further notice, unless Matthews Asia, in its sole discretion, agrees to continue the waiver. For the period ended April 30, 2025, the investment management fee rate was equivalent to an annual effective rate of 0.75% of the Fund&#8217;s average daily net assets. For the period ended April 30, 2025, no fees were paid for Direct Investments as the Fund held no such investments during the period.

This limit may be increased or decreased by the Board at any time. Under the Program, the Fund expects to repurchase its common shares in the open market on any trading day that the Fund&#8217;s shares are trading above the discount threshold. On each day that shares are repurchased, the Fund repurchases its shares within the limits permitted by law. The Program is intended to enhance stockholder value, as repurchases made at a discount may have the effect of increasing the per share NAV of the Fund&#8217;s remaining shares. There is no assurance, however, that the market price of the Fund&#8217;s shares, either absolutely or relative to NAV, will increase as a result of any share repurchases. These repurchases may be commenced or suspended at any time or from time to time without any notice. Any repurchases will be disclosed in the Fund&#8217;s stockholder reports for the relevant fiscal periods.

<p style="text-align: justify; margin-left: 0pt; text-indent: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; FONT: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">The Chinese government plays a major role in the country&#8217;s economic policies regarding foreign investments. Foreign investors are subject to the risk of loss from expropriation or nationalization of their investment assets and property, governmental restrictions on foreign investments and the repatriation of capital invested. The Chinese government may intervene or seek to control the operations, structure, or ownership of Chinese companies, including with respect to foreign investors of such companies. For example, the Fund may invest to a significant extent in variable interest entity (&#8220;VIE&#8221;) structures. VIE structures can vary, but generally consist of a U.S.-listed company with contractual arrangements, through one or more wholly-owned special purpose vehicles, with a Chinese company that ultimately provides the U.S.-listed company with contractual rights to exercise control over and obtain economic benefits from the Chinese company. The VIE structure enables foreign investors, such as the Fund, to obtain investment exposure similar to that of an equity owner in a Chinese company in situations in which the Chinese government has restricted or prohibited the ownership of such company by foreign investors. As a result, an investment in a VIE structure subjects the Fund to the risks associated with the underlying Chinese company. Intervention by the Chinese government into the operation or ownership of VIE structures could significantly and adversely affect the Chinese company&#8217;s performance and thus, the value of the Fund&#8217;s investment in the VIE, as well as the enforceability of the VIE contractual arrangements with the underlying Chinese company. In the event of such an occurrence, the Fund, as a foreign investor, may have little or no legal recourse. The Fund&#8217;s investment in a VIE structure is also subject to the risk that the underlying Chinese company (or its officers, directors, or Chinese equity owners) may breach its contractual arrangements with the other entities in the VIE structure, or Chinese law changes in a way that adversely affects the enforceability of these arrangements, or those contracts are otherwise not enforceable under Chinese law, in which case the Fund may suffer significant losses on its VIE investments with little or no recourse available.

Adoption of the new standard impacted financial statement disclosures only and did not affect the Fund&#8217;s financial position or the results of its operations. An operating segment is defined in Topic 280 as a component of a public entity that engages in business activities from which it may recognize revenues and incur expenses, has operating results that are regularly reviewed by the public entity&#8217;s chief operating decision maker (&#8220;CODM&#8221;) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and has discrete financial information available.

Financial information in the form of total returns, expense ratios and changes in net assets (i.e., changes in net assets resulting from operations, distributions to stockholders, and capital share transactions), which are used by the CODM to assess the segment&#8217;s performance versus the Fund&#8217;s comparative benchmarks, among other metrics, and to make resource allocation decisions for the Fund&#8217;s single segment, is consistent with that presented within the Fund&#8217;s financial statements. Segment assets are reflected on the Fund&#8217;s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as &#8220;total assets&#8221; and significant segment income, expenses, and gain/(loss) are listed on the Fund&#8217;s Statement of Operations.

The primary purpose of the amendments within ASU 2023-09 is to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation table and income taxes paid information. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 require that public business entities on an annual basis (1) disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and (2) provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. In addition, the amendments in this ASU 2023-09 require that all entities disclose on an annual basis taxes paid disaggregated by; federal, state, foreign, and jurisdiction (when income taxes paid is equal to or greater than five percent of total income taxes paid). The amendments in ASU 2023-09 are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 should be applied on a prospective basis. Retrospective application is permitted. Management is currently assessing the impact this standard will have on our financial statements as well as the method by which we will adopt the new standard. Management does not expect the guidance to have a material impact to the Portfolio.

Pursuant to the Dividend Reinvestment and Cash Purchase Plan (the &#8220;Plan&#8221;), adopted by the Fund, each stockholder will automatically be a participant (a &#8220;Participant&#8221;) in the Plan unless Computershare Trust Company, N.A., the Plan Agent, is otherwise instructed by the stockholder, to have all distributions, net of any applicable U.S. withholding tax, paid in cash. Stockholders who do not participate in the Plan will receive all distributions in cash paid by check in U.S. dollars mailed directly to the stockholder by Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as paying agent. Stockholders who do not wish to have distributions automatically reinvested should notify the Fund by contacting Computershare Trust Company, N.A. c/o The China Fund, Inc. at P.O.

(&ldquo;BBH&rdquo;) as custodian to certain qualified brokers, except those securities which the Fund or the Investment Manager specifically identifies as not being available. By lending its investment securities, the Fund attempts to increase its net investment income through the receipt of interest on the loan. Any gain or loss in the market price of the securities loaned that might occur and any interest or dividends declared during the term of the loan would accrue to the account of the Fund. Risks of delay in recovery of the securities or even loss of rights in the collateral may occur should the borrower of the securities fail financially. Upon entering into a securities lending transaction, the Fund receives cash as collateral in an amount equal to or exceeding 100% of the current market value of the loaned securities with respect to securities of the U.S. government or its agencies, 102% of the current market value of the loaned securities with respect to U.S. securities and 105% of the current market value of the loaned securities with respect to foreign securities. Any cash received as collateral is generally invested by BBH, acting in its capacity as securities lending agent (the &ldquo;Agent&rdquo;), in the Fidelity Investments Money Market Government Portfolio. A portion of the dividends received on the collateral may be rebated to the borrower of the securities and the remainder is split between the Agent and the Fund.</FONT></TD></TR>
