INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT 

TO THE DIRECTORS OF LOTO INTERACTIVE LIMITED
(Incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability)

 

OPINION

 

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Loto Interactive Limited (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “ Group ” ) set out on pages 5 to 54, which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2019 and 2020, and the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the each two years ended 31 December 2020, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of the Group as at 31 December 2019 and 2020, and of its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for each of the two years ended 31 December 2019 and 2020 in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ( “ IFRSs ” ) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (the “ IASB ” ) and have been properly prepared in compliance with the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.

 

BASIS FOR OPINION

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing ( “ISAs”) issued by the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board ("IAASB"). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants’ Code of Ethics (“IESBA Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the IESBA Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

 

KEY AUDIT MATTERS

 

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current periods. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

 

Property, plant and equipment

 

Refer to note 16 to the consolidated financial statements.

 

The Group tested the amount of property, plant and equipment for impairment. This impairment test is significant to our audit because the balances of property, plant and equipment of approximately HK$164,520,000 and HK$263,269,000 as at 31 December 2019 and 2020 is material to the consolidated financial statements. In addition, the Group's impairment test involves application of judgement and is based on assumptions and estimates.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT 

TO THE DIRECTORS OF LOTO INTERACTIVE LIMITED
(Incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability)

 

Our audit procedures included, among others:

 

- Assessing the identification of the related cash generating units; 

- Assessing the arithmetical accuracy of the value-in-use calculations; 

- Comparing the actual cash flows with the cash flow projection; 

- Assessing the reasonableness of the key assumptions (including revenue growth, profit margins, terminal growth rates and discount rates); and 

- Checking input data to supporting evidence.

 

We consider that the Group's impairment test for property, plant and equipment is supported by the available evidence.

 

Goodwill

 

Refer to note 18 to the consolidated financial statements.

 

The Group is required to annually test the amount of goodwill for impairment. This annual impairment test is significant to our audit because the balances of goodwill of approximately HK$10,996,000 and HK$11,703,000 as at 31 December 2019 and 2020 is material to the consolidated financial statements. In addition, the Group’s impairment test involves application of judgement and is based on assumptions and estimates.

 

Our audit procedures included, among others:

 

- Assessing the identification of the related cash generating units; 

- Assessing the arithmetical accuracy of the value-in-use calculations; 

- Assessing the reasonableness of the key assumptions (including revenue growth, profit margins, terminal growth rates and discount rates); and 

- Checking input data to supporting evidence.

 

We consider that the Group’s impairment test for goodwill is supported by the available evidence.

 

Loan receivables

 

Refer to note 24 to the consolidated financial statements.

 

The Group tested the amount of loan receivables for impairment. This impairment test is significant to our audit because the balances of loan receviables of approximately HK$60,881,000 and HK$30,000,000 as at 31 December 2019 and 2020 is material to the consolidated financial statements. In addition, the Group's impairment test involves application of judgement and is based on estimates.

 

Our audit procedures included, among others:

 

- Assessing the Group's relationship and transaction history with the borrower; 

- Evaluating the Group's impairment assessment; 

- Assessing ageing of the debts; 

- Checking subsequent settlements from the borrowers; and 

- Assessing the disclosure of the Group's exposure to credit risk in the consolidated financial statements.

 

We consider that the Group's impairment test for loan receivables is supported by the available evidence.

Trade receivables

 

Refer to note 25 to the consolidated financial statements.

 

The Group tested the amount of trade receivables for impairment. This impairment test is significant to our audit because the balances of trade receivables of approximately HK$19,949,000 as at 31 December 2019 is material to the consolidated financial statements. In addition, the Group’s impairment test involves application of judgement and is based on estimates.

 

Our audit procedures included, among others:

 

-Assessing the Group’s procedures on granting credit limits and credit periods to customers;

 

-Assessing the Group’s relationship and transaction history with the customers;

 

-Evaluating the Group’s impairment assessment;

 

-Assessing ageing of the debts;

 

-Assessing creditworthiness of the customers;

We consider that the Group’s impairment test for trade receivables is supported by the available evidence.

 

RESPONSIBILITIES OF DIRECTORS FOR THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

The directors are responsible for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with IFRSs issued by the IASB and the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance, and for such internal control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

 

AUDITOR’S RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE AUDIT OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. We report our opinion solely to you, as a body, and for no other purpose. We do not assume responsibility towards or accept liability to any other person for the contents of this report. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT 

TO THE DIRECTORS OF LOTO INTERACTIVE LIMITED
(Incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability)

 

As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

 

- Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. the risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

 

- Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.

 

- Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.

 

- Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group ’ s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.

 

- Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

 

- Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

 

We communicate with Audit and Compliance Committee regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

 

We also provide Audit and Compliance Committee with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, actions taken to eliminate treats of safeguards applied.

 

From the matters communicated with Audit and Compliance Committee, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor ’ s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

In the opinion of the directors of the Company, as at 31 December 2019 and 2020, the substantial shareholder of the Company is BIT Mining Limited (formerly known as 500.com Limited) ("Holding Company"), which is incorporated in the Cayman Islands and listed on the New York Stock Exchange (stock code: WBAI).

 

2.ADOPTION OF NEW AND REVISED INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS

 

In the current period, the Group has adopted all the new and revised International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRSs") issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (the “IASB”) that are relevant to its operations and effective for its accounting year beginning on 1 January 2019. IFRSs comprise International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"); International Accounting Standards (“IAS” ); and Interpretations. The adoption of these new and revised IFRSs did not result in substantial changes to the Group’s accounting policies and amounts reported for the current year and prior years.

 

3.SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRSs issued by the IASB, and the applicable disclosures required by the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.

 

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by investments which are carried at their fair values.

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRSs requires the use of certain key assumptions and estimates. It also requires the directors to exercise its judgments in the process of applying the accounting policies. The areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to these consolidated financial statements, are disclosed in note 4 to the consolidated financial statements.

 

The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below.

 

(a) Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries made up to 31 December. Subsidiaries are entities over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The Group has power over an entity when the Group has existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities, i.e. activities that significantly affect the entity’s returns.

 

When assessing control, the Group considers its potential voting rights as well as potential voting rights held by other parties, to determine whether it has control. A potential voting right is considered only if the holder has the practical ability to exercise that right.

 

Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are de-consolidated from the date the control ceases.

 

The gain or loss on the disposal of subsidiaries that results in a loss of control represents the difference between (i) the fair value of the consideration of the sale plus the fair value of any investment retained in that subsidiaries and (ii) the Company's share of the net assets of that subsidiaries plus any remaining goodwill relating to that subsidiaries and any related foreign currency translation reserve.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

FOR THE TWO YEARS ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2019 AND 2020

 

 

Intragroup transactions, balances and unrealised profits are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

 

Non-controlling interests represent the equity in subsidiaries not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the Company. Non-controlling interests are presented in the consolidated statement of financial position and consolidated statement of changes in equity within equity. Non-controlling interests are presented in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income as an allocation of profit or loss and total comprehensive income for the year between the non-controlling shareholders and owners of the Company.

 

Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the Company and to the non-controlling shareholders even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.

 

Changes in the Company's ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions (i.e. transactions with owners in their capacity as owners). The carrying amounts of the controlling and non-controlling interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiary. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognised directly in equity and attributed to the owners of the Company.

 

(b) Business combination and goodwill

 

The acquisition method is used to account for the acquisition of a subsidiary in a business combination. The cost of acquisition is measured at the acquisition-date fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued, liabilities incurred and contingent consideration. Acquisition-related costs are recognised as expenses in the periods in which the costs are incurred and the services are received. Identifiable assets and liabilities of the subsidiary in the acquisition are measured at their acquisition-date fair values.

 

The excess of the cost of acquisition over the Company’s share of the net fair value of the subsidiary’s identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Any excess of the Company’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities over the cost of acquisition is recognised in consolidated profit or loss as a gain on bargain purchase which is attributed to the Company.

 

In a business combination achieved in stages, the previously held equity interest in the subsidiary is remeasured at its acquisition-date fair value and the resulting gain or loss is recognised in consolidated profit or loss. The fair value is added to the cost of acquisition to calculate the goodwill.

 

If the changes in the value of the previously held equity interest in the subsidiary were recognised in other comprehensive income (for example, equity investments at fair value through other comprehensive income), the amount that was recognised in other comprehensive income is recognised on the same basis as would be required if the previously held equity interest were disposed of.

 

Goodwill is tested annually for impairment or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired. Goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses. The method of measuring impairment losses of goodwill is the same as that of other assets as stated in the accounting policy (v) below. Impairment losses of goodwill are recognised in consolidated profit or loss and are not subsequently reversed. Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the acquisition for the purpose of impairment testing.

 

The non-controlling interests in the subsidiary are initially measured at the non-controlling shareholders’ proportionate share of the net fair value of the subsidiary’s identifiable assets and liabilities at the acquisition date.

 

(c) Associates

 

Associates are entities over which the Group has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of an entity but is not control or joint control over those policies. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible, including potential voting rights held by other entities, are considered when assessing whether the Group has significant influence. In assessing whether a potential voting right contributes to significant influence, the holder’s intention and financial ability to exercise or convert that right is not considered.

FOR THE TWO YEARS ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2019 AND 2020

 

 

Investment in an associate is accounted for in the consolidated financial statements by the equity method and is initially recognised at cost. Identifiable assets and liabilities of the associate in an acquisition are measured at their fair values at the acquisition date. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group’ s share of the net fair value of the associate’ s identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. The goodwill is included in the carrying amount of the investment and is tested for impairment together with the investment at the end of each reporting period when there is objective evidence that the investment is impaired. Any excess of the Group’ s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities over the cost of acquisition is recognised in consolidated profit or loss.

 

The Group’s share of an associate’s post-acquisition profits or losses is recognised in consolidated profit or loss, and its share of the post-acquisition movements in reserves is recognised in the consolidated reserves. The cumulative post-acquisition movements are adjusted against the carrying amount of the investment. When the Group’s share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any other unsecured receivables, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate. If the associate subsequently reports profits, the Group resumes recognising its share of those profits only after its share of the profits equals the share of losses not recognised.

 

The gain or loss on the disposal of an associate that results in a loss of significant influence represents the difference between (i) the fair value of the consideration of the sale plus the fair value of any investment retained in that associate and (ii) the Group’s share of the net assets of that associate plus any remaining goodwill relating to that associate and any related accumulated foreign currency translation reserve. If an investment in an associate becomes an investment in a joint venture, the Group continues to apply the equity method and does not remeasure the retained interest.

 

Unrealised profits on transactions between the Group and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the Group’ s interests in the associates. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of associates have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

 

(d) Joint arrangements

 

A joint arrangement is an arrangement of which two or more parties have joint control. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. Relevant activities are activities that significantly affect the returns of the arrangement. When assessing joint control, the Group considers its potential voting rights as well as potential voting rights held by other parties, to determine whether it has joint control. A potential voting right is considered only if the holder has the practical ability to exercise that right.

 

A joint arrangement is either a joint operation or a joint venture. A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the assets, and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement.

 

In relation to its interest in a joint operation, the Group recognises in its consolidated financial statements, its assets, including its share of any assets held jointly; its liabilities, including its share of any liabilities incurred jointly; its revenue from the sale of its share of the output arising from the joint operation; its share of the revenue from the sale of the output by the joint operation; and its expenses, including its share of any expenses incurred jointly, in accordance with the IFRSs applicable to the particular assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.

 

Investment in a joint venture is accounted for in the consolidated financial statements by the equity method and is initially recognised at cost. Identifiable assets and liabilities of the joint venture in an acquisition are measured at their fair values at the acquisition date. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group’s share of the net fair value of the joint venture’s identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. The goodwill is included in the carrying amount of the investment and is tested for impairment together with the investment at the end of each reporting period when there is objective evidence that the investment is impaired. Any excess of the Group’ s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities over the cost of acquisition is recognised in consolidated profit or loss.

FOR THE TWO YEARS ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2019 AND 2020

 

 

The Group’s share of a joint venture’s post-acquisition profits or losses is recognised in consolidated profit or loss, and its share of the post-acquisition movements in reserves is recognised in the consolidated reserves. The cumulative post-acquisition movements are adjusted against the carrying amount of the investment. When the Group’ s share of losses in a joint venture equals or exceeds its interest in the joint venture, including any other unsecured receivables, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the joint venture. If the joint venture subsequently reports profits, the Group resumes recognising its share of those profits only after its share of the profits equals the share of losses not recognised.

 

The gain or loss on the disposal of a joint venture that results in a loss of joint control represents the difference between (i) the fair value of the consideration of the sale plus the fair value of any investment retained in that joint venture and (ii) the Group’s share of the net assets of that joint venture plus any remaining goodwill relating to that joint venture and any related accumulated foreign currency translation reserve. If an investment in a joint venture becomes an investment in an associate, the Group continues to apply the equity method and does not remeasure the retained interest.

 

Unrealised profits on transactions between the Group and its joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interests in the joint ventures. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of joint ventures have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

 

(e) Foreign currency translation

 

(i) Functional and presentation currency

 

The consolidated financial statements are presented in Hong Kong dollars, which is the Company’s presentation currency. The functional currency of the Company is Renminbi. The directors consider that choosing Hong Kong dollars as the presentation currency best suits the needs of the shareholders and investors.

 

(ii) Transactions and balances in each entity's financial statements

 

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency on initial recognition using the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rates at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from this translation policy are recognised in profit or loss.

 

Non-monetary items that are measured at fair values in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rates at the dates when the fair values are determined.

 

When a gain or loss on a non-monetary item is recognised in other comprehensive income, any exchange component of that gain or loss is recognised in other comprehensive income. When a gain or loss on a non-monetary item is recognised in profit or loss, any exchange component of that gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss.

 

(iii) Translation on consolidation

 

The results and financial position of all the Group entities that have a functional currency different from the Company ’ s presentation currency are translated into the Company’s presentation currency as follows:

 

-Assets and liabilities for each statement of financial position presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of that statement of financial position;

 

-Income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates (unless this average is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the exchange rates on the transaction dates); and

 

-All resulting exchange differences are recognised in the foreign currency translation reserve.

 

On consolidation, exchange differences arising from the translation of the net investment in foreign entities and of borrowings are recognised in the foreign currency translation reserve. When a foreign operation is sold, such exchange differences are recognised in consolidated profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on disposal.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

FOR THE TWO YEARS ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2019 AND 2020

 

 

Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the closing rate.

 

(f) Property, plant and equipment

 

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

 

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are recognised in profit or loss during the period in which they are incurred.

 

Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is calculated at rates sufficient to write off their cost less their residual values over the estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis. The principal annual rate are as follows:

 

Leasehold improvement  20%  - 75%
Machinery and equipment  20%  - 33.33%
Furniture, fixtures and equipment  20%  - 50%
Motor vehicles  10%  - 20%

 

The residual values, useful lives and depreciation method are reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.

 

Construction in progress represents plant and machinery pending installation, and is stated at cost less impairment losses. Depreciation begins when the relevant assets are available for use.

 

The gain or loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment is the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the relevant asset, and is recognised in profit or loss.

 

(g) Leases

 

The Group as lessee

 

Leases are recognised as right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities when the leased assets are available for use by the Group. Right-of-use assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Depreciation of right-of-use assets is calculated at rates to write off their cost over the shorter of the asset’s useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis. The principal annual rates are as follows:

 

Land use rights  50%
Land and buildings  33.33% - 58.53%

 

Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liabilities, lease payments prepaid, initial direct costs and the restoration costs. Lease liabilities include the net present value of the lease payments discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease if that rate can be determined, or otherwise the Group’s incremental borrowing rate. Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to profit or loss over the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the lease liability.

 

Payments associated with short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognised as expenses in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease terms. Short-term leases are leases with an initial lease term of 12 months or less. Low-value assets are assets of value below US$ 5,000.

 

(h) Recognition and derecognition of financial instruments

 

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised in the statement of financial position when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

FOR THE TWO YEARS ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2019 AND 2020

 

 

Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to receive cash flows from the assets expire; the Group transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the assets; or the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the assets but has not retained control on the assets. On derecognition of a financial asset, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received is recognised in profit or loss.

 

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the obligation specified in the relevant contract is discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid is recognised in profit or loss.

 

(i) Financial assets

 

Financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis where the purchase or sale of an asset is under a contract whose terms require delivery of the asset within the timeframe established by the market concerned, and are initially recognised at fair value, plus directly attributable transaction costs except in the case of investments at fair value through profit or loss. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of investments at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in profit or loss.

 

Financial assets of the Group are classified under the following categories:

 

-Financial assets at amortised cost; and

 

-Equity investments at fair value through other comprehensive income;

 

(i)   Financial assets at amortised cost

 

Financial assets (including trade and other receivables) are classified under this category if they satisfy both of the following conditions:

 

-the assets are held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash; and

 

-the contractual terms of the assets give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

 

They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method less loss allowance for expected credit losses.

 

(ii)   Equity investments at fair value through other comprehensive income

 

On initial recognition, the Group can make an irrevocable election (on an instrument-by-instrument basis) to designate investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading as at fair value through other comprehensive income.

 

Equity investments at fair value through other comprehensive income are subsequently measured at fair value with gains and losses arising from changes in fair values recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the equity investment revaluation reserve. On derecognition of an investment, the cumulative gains or losses previously accumulated in the equity investment revaluation reserve are not reclassified to profit or loss.

 

Dividends on these investments are recognised in profit or loss, unless the dividends clearly represent a recovery of part of the cost of the investment.

 

(j) Loss allowances for expected credit losses

 

The Group recognises loss allowances for expected credit losses on financial assets at amortised cost. Expected credit losses are the weighted average of credit losses with the respective risks of a default occurring as the weights.

 

At the end of each reporting period, the Group measures the loss allowance for a financial instrument at an amount equal to the expected credit losses that result from all possible default events over the expected life of that financial instrument ("lifetime expected credit losses") for trade receivables, or if the credit risk on that financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition.

- 15 -

 

LOTO INTERACTIVE LIMITED

 

 

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

FOR THE TWO YEARS ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2019 AND 2020

 

 

If, at the end of the reporting period, the credit risk on a financial instrument (other than trade receivables) has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Group measures the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equal to the portion of lifetime expected credit losses that represents the expected credit losses that result from default events on that financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting period.

 

The amount of expected credit losses or reversal to adjust the loss allowance at the end of the reporting period to the required amount is recognised in profit or loss as an impairment gain or loss.

 

(k) Cash and cash equivalents

 

For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents represent cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other financial institutions, and short-term highly liquid investments which are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. Bank overdrafts which are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Group’s cash management are also included as a component of cash and cash equivalents.

 

(l) Financial liabilities and equity instruments

 

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument under IFRSs. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Group after deducting all of its liabilities. The accounting policies adopted for specific financial liabilities and equity instruments are set out below.

 

(m) Trade and other payables

 

Trade and other payables are stated initially at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the effect of discounting would be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost.

 

(n) Equity instruments

 

Equity instruments issued by the Group are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

 

(o) Revenue from contracts with customers

 

Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer with reference to the customary business practices and excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties. For a contract where the period between the payment by the customer and the transfer of the promised product or service exceeds one year, the consideration is adjusted for the effect of a significant financing component.

 

The Group recognises revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over a product or service to a customer. Depending on the terms of a contract and the laws that apply to that contract, a performance obligation can be satisfied over time or at a point in time. A performance obligation is satisfied over time if:

 

-the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Group’s performance;

 

-the Group’s performance creates or enhances an asset that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced; or

 

-the Group’s performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the Group and the Group has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.

 

If a performance obligation is satisfied over time, revenue is recognised by reference to the progress towards complete satisfaction of that performance obligation. Otherwise, revenue is recognised at a point in time when the customer obtains control of the product or service.

 

(p) Other revenue

 

Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method.

(q) Employee benefits

 

(i)Employee leave entitlements

 

Employee entitlements to annual leave and long service leave are recognised when they accrue to employees. A provision is made for the estimated liability for annual leave and long service leave as a result of services rendered by employees up to the end of the reporting period.

 

Employee entitlements to sick leave and maternity leave are not recognised until the time of leave.

 

(ii)Pension obligations

 

The Group contributes to defined contribution retirement schemes which are available to all employees. Contributions to the schemes by the Group and employees are calculated as a percentage of employees’ basic salaries. The retirement benefit scheme cost charged to profit or loss represents contributions payable by the Group to the funds.

 

(iii)Termination benefits

 

Termination benefits are recognised at the earlier of the dates when the Group can no longer withdraw the offer of those benefits and when the Group recognises restructuring costs and involves the payment of termination benefits.

 

(r)  Share-based payments

 

The Group issues equity-settled share-based payments to certain directors, employees and consultants.

 

Equity-settled share-based payments to directors and employees are measured at the fair value (excluding the effect of non market-based vesting conditions) of the equity instruments at the date of grant. The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share-based payments is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Group’ s estimate of shares that will eventually vest and adjusted for the effect of non market-based vesting conditions.

 

Equity-settled share-based payments to consultants are measured at the fair value of the services rendered or if the fair value of the services rendered cannot be reliably measured, at the fair value of the equity instruments granted. The fair value is measured at the date the Group receives the services and is recognised as an expense.

 

(s) Taxation

 

Income tax represents the sum of the current tax and deferred tax.

 

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit recognised in profit or loss because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The Group’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

 

Deferred tax is recognised on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses or unused tax credits can be utilised. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.

 

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries and associates, and interests in joint ventures, except where the Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

 

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

- 17 -

 

 

LOTO INTERACTIVE LIMITED

 

 

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

FOR THE TWO YEARS ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2019 AND 2020

 

 

Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is realised, based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except when it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the deferred tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

 

The measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Group intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.

 

(t) Segment reporting

 

Operating segments and the amounts of each segment item reported in the financial statements are identified from the financial information provided regularly to the Group’s most senior executive management for the purpose of allocating resources and assessing the performance of the Group’s various lines of business.

 

Individually material operating segments are not aggregated for financial reporting purposes unless the segments have similar economic characteristics and are similar in respect of the nature of products and services, the nature of productions processes, the type or class of customers, the methods used to distribute the products or provide the services, and the nature of the regulatory environment. Operating segments which are not individually material may be aggregated if they share a majority of these criteria.

 

(u) Related parties

 

A related party is a person or entity that is related to the Group.

 

(a)A person or a close member of that person’s family is related to the Group if that person:

 

(i)has control or joint control over the Group;

(ii)has significant influence over the Group; or

(iii)is a member of the key management personnel of the Company or of a parent of the Company.

 

(b)An entity is related to the Group (reporting entity) if any of the following conditions applies:

 

(i)The entity and the Company are members of the same group (which means that each parent, subsidiaries and fellow subsidiaries is related to the others).

(ii)One entity is an associate or joint venture of the other entity (or an associate or joint venture of a member of a group of which the other entity is a member).

(iii)Both entities are joint ventures of the same third party.

(iv)One entity is a joint venture of a third entity and the other entity is an associate of the third entity.

(v)The entity is a post-employment benefit plan for the benefit of employees of either the Group or an entity related to the Group. If the Group is itself such a plan, the sponsoring employers are also related to the Group.

(vi)The entity is controlled or jointly controlled by a person identified in (a).

(vii)A person identified in (a)(i) has significant influence over the entity or is a member of the key management personnel of the entity (or of a parent of the entity).

(viii)The entity, or any member of a group of which it is a part, provides key management personnel services to the Company or to a parent of the Company.

(v) Impairment of assets

 

At the end of each reporting period, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets except goodwill, investments and receivables to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of any impairment loss. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit to which the asset belongs.

 

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.

 

If the recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.

 

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of amortisation or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset or cash-generating unit in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.

 

(w) Provisions and contingent liabilities

 

Provisions are recognised for liabilities of uncertain timing or amount when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation arising as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made. Where the time value of money is material, provisions are stated at the present value of the expenditures expected to settle the obligation.

 

Where it is not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required, or the amount cannot be estimated reliably, the obligation is disclosed as a contingent liability, unless the probability of outflow is remote. Possible obligations, whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more future events are also disclosed as contingent liabilities unless the probability of outflow is remote.

 

(x) Events after the reporting period

 

Events after the reporting period that provide additional information about the Group’s position at the end of the reporting period or those that indicate the going concern assumption is not appropriate are adjusting events and are reflected in the financial statements. Events after the reporting period that are not adjusting events are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements when material.

 

4.KEY ESTIMATES

 

Key sources of estimation uncertainty

 

The key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are discussed below.

 

(a)Impairment of property, plant and equipment

 

Property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is determined with reference to the present value of estimated future cash flows. Where the future cash flows are less than expected or there are unfavourable events and change in facts and circumstance which result in revision of future estimate cash flows, a material impairment loss may arise.

(b)Impairment of goodwill

 

Determining whether goodwill is impaired requires an estimation of the value in use of the cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated. The value in use calculation requires the Group to estimate the future cash flows expected to arise from the cash-generating unit and a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value. The carrying amounts of goodwill at 31 December 2019 and 2020 were approximately HK$10,996,000 and HK$11,703,000 respectively.

 

(c)Impairment of loan receivables

 

The Group makes impairment loss for loan receivables based on assessments of the recoverability of the loan receivables, including the current creditworthiness and the past collection history of each borrower. Impairments arise where events or changes in circumstances indicate that the balances may not be collectible. The identification of impairment loss requires the use of judgement and estimates. Where the actual result is different from the original estimate, such difference will impact the carrying value of the loan receivables and impairment loss expenses in the year in which such estimate has been changed.

 

(d)Property, plant and equipment and depreciation

 

The Group determines the estimated useful lives, residual values and related depreciation charges for the Group’s property, plant and equipment. This estimate is based on the historical experience of the actual useful lives and residual values of property, plant and equipment of similar nature and functions. The Group will revise the depreciation charge where useful lives and residual values are different to those previously estimated, or it will write-off or write-down technically obsolete or non-strategic assets that have been abandoned or sold.

 

5.FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

 

The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: foreign currency risk, credit risk, liquidity risk, interest rate risk and price risk. The Group’s overall risk management programme focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Group’s financial performance.

 

(a)Foreign currency risk

 

The Group has minimal exposure to foreign currency risk as most of its business transactions, assets and liabilities are principally denominated in the functional currencies of the Group entities. The Group currently does not have a foreign currency hedging policy in respect of foreign currency transactions, assets and liabilities. The Group will monitor its foreign currency exposure closely and will consider hedging significant foreign currency exposure should the need arise.

 

(b)Credit risk

 

At 31 December 2019 and 2020, the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk which will cause a financial loss to the Group due to failure to the perform an obligation by the counterparties arise from the carrying amounts of the respective recognised financial assets as stated in the consolidated statement of financial position.

 

In order to minimise credit risk, the directors have delegated a team to be responsible for the determination of credit limits, credit approvals and other monitoring procedures. In addition, the directors review the recoverable amount of each individual trade debt regularly to ensure that adequate impairment losses are recognised for irrecoverable debts. In this regard, the directors consider that the Group’s credit risk is significantly reduced.

 

The Group has concentration of credit risk as 89.5% and 91.3% respectively of the Group's trade receivables are due from the Group's three customers and one customer which operate in the PRC as at 31 Decemeber 2019 and 2020. The principal activities of the Group are mainly provision of big data centre services and use of storage places. In repect of these customers, given their good repayment history, the directors of the Company consider that the credit risk associated with the balances of the customers is low.

LOTO INTERACTIVE LIMITED

 

 

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

FOR THE TWO YEARS ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2019 AND 2020

 

 

The Group also has concentration of credit risk as 82% of the Group's loan receivables is a loan granted to an independent third party which is secured by a personal guarantee and a collateral of 95% of the entire equity interests in another company as at 31 December 2019, and has concentration of credit risk as 100% of the Group's loan receivables is a loan granted to an independent third party which is secured by a personal guarantee and a collateral of a property in PRC as at 31 December 2020. In view of the counterparties never fail to make contractual payments, the directors of the Company consider that the credit risk associated with the balance of loan receivable is low.

 

The Group considers whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk of financial assets on an ongoing basis throughout each reporting period by comparing the risk of a default occurring as at the reporting date with the risk of default as at the date of initial recognition. It considers available reasonable and supportive forwarding-looking information. Especially the following information is used:

 

-internal credit rating;

-actual or expected significant adverse changes in business, financial or economic conditions that are expected to cause a significant change to the borrower’s ability to meet its obligations;

-significant changes in the value of the collateral or in the quality of guarantees or credit enhancements; and

-significant changes in the expected performance and behaviour of the borrower, including changes in the payment status of borrowers.

 

A significant increase in credit risk is presumed if a debtor is more than 30 days past due in making a contractual payment. A default on a financial asset is when the counterparty fails to make contractual payments within 60 days of when they fall due.

 

Financial assets are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery, such as a debtor failing to engage in a repayment plan with the Group. The Group normally categorises a loan or receivable for write off when a debtor fails to make contractual payments greater than 360 days past due. Where loans or receivables have been written off, the Group, if practicable and economical, continues to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivable due.

 

The Group uses two categories for non-trade loan receivable which reflect their credit risk and how the loan loss provision is determined for each of the categories. In calculating the expected credit loss rates, the Group considers historical loss rates for each category and adjusts for forward looking data.

 

Category Definition Loss provision
Performing Low risk of default and strong capacity to pay 12 month expected losses
Non-performing Significant increase in credit risk Lifetime expected losses

 

All of these loans are considered to have low risk and under the ‘Performing’ category because they have a low risk of default and have strong ability to meet their obligations.

 

(c)  Liquidity risk

 

The Group’s policy is to regularly monitor current and expected liquidity requirements to ensure that it maintains sufficient reserves of cash to meet its liquidity requirements in the short and longer term.

 

The maturity analysis, based on undiscounted cash flows, of the Group’s financial liabilities is as follows:

   HK$'000   HK$'000

    30,812    30,812 

 

(d)Interest rate risk

 

The management of the Group considered that the overall interest rate risk is not significant as the fluctuation of the interest rates on bank balance is considered minimal. Accordingly, no sensitivity analysis is prepared and presented.

 

(e)Price risk

 

The Group ’ s equity investments at fair value through other comprehensive income are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Therefore, the Group is exposed to equity security price risk. The directors manage this exposure by maintaining a portfolio of investments with difference risk profiles.

 

At 31 December 2019 and 2020, if the share prices of the investments increase/decrease by 10%, the equity investment revaluation reserve would have been approximately HK$514,000 and HK$506,000 higher/lower, arising as a result of the fair value gain/loss of the investments.

6.FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The following disclosures of fair value measurements use a fair value hierarchy that categorises into three levels the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value:

 

Level 1 inputs: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Group can access at the measurement date.

 

Level 2 inputs: inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

 

Level 3 inputs: unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

 

The Group’s policy is to recognise transfers into and transfers out of any of the three levels as of the date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer.

The Group has four and three reportable segments respectively for the year ended 31 December 2019 and 2020. The segments are managed separately as each business segment offers different products and requires different business strategies. The following summary describes the operations in each of the Group’s reportable segments:

 

-Provision of big data centre services ("Big Data Centre Services")

-Distribution of mobile gaming ("Online Game Business")

-Money lending business ("Money Lending Business")

-Trading of lottery terminals and parts and provision of services and solutions for the distribution of lottery products ("Lottery Business")#

 

#In the opinion of the directors, Lottery Business was no longer a reportable segment of the Group in 2020 since both the performance and the resources allocated were minimal to the Group.

 

The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same as those described in note 3 to the consolidated financial statements. Segment profits or losses do not include dividend income, and gains or losses from investments and derivative instruments. Segment assets do not include amounts due from related parties, investments and derivative instruments. Segment liabilities do not include convertible loans and derivative instruments. Segment non-current assets do not include financial instruments, deferred tax assets, post-employment benefit assets and rights arising under insurance contracts.

12.INCOME TAX

 

No provision for Hong Kong profits tax has been made as the Hong Kong subsidiaries did not generate any assessable profits arising in Hong Kong during these two years.

 

Pursuant to the PRC Corporate Income Tax Law effective on 1 January 2008, the PRC subsidiaries are subject to corporate income tax ("CIT") at a statutory rate of 25% on their respective taxable income for the year ended 31 December 2019 and 2020. Taxes on profits assessable elsewhere have been calculated at the rates of tax prevailing in the countries in which the Group operates.

 

   2019   2020 
   HK$'000   HK$'000 
Current - Mainland China          
Charge for the year   19    3,937 
Deferred tax (note 32)   (124)   (1,039)
           
Total tax (credit)/expense for the year   (105)   2,898 

 

The reconciliation between the income tax (credit)/expense and the product of profit before tax multiplied by the statutory rates for the countries (or jurisdictions) is as follows:

 

   2019   2020 
   HK$'000   HK$'000 
Loss before tax   (34,876)   (40,357)
Tax at the weighted average tax rate of 16.5% to 25%   (6,118)   (6,586)
One-off tax deduction   (75)   - 
Loss attributable to a joint venture and associates   2,354    278 
Tax effect of income that is not taxable   (2,325)   (875)
Tax effect of expenses that are not deductible   1,627    2,241 
Tax effect of tax losses not recognised   4,432    7,840 
           
Income tax (credit)/expense   (105)   2,898 

 

At 31 December 2019 and 2020, the Group had unused tax losses of HK$267,546,000 and HK$312,258,000 available to offset against future taxable profits. No deferred tax asset has been recognised in respect of unused tax losses due to the unpredictability of future profit streams.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

FOR THE TWO YEARS ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2019 AND 2020

 

 

 

As at 31 December 2019 and 2020, included in unrecognised tax losses are losses of HK$53,494,000 and HK$42,586,000 respectively that are allowed to be carried forward and utilised against the taxable income of subsequent years. The loss carryforward period cannot exceed 5 years and expires between 2020 and 2025. Other losses of HK$214,052,000 and HK$269,672,000 respectively as at 31 December 2019 and 2020 may be carried forward indefinitely.

 

At 31 December 2019 and 2020, no deferred tax has been recognised for withholding taxes that would be payable on the unremitted earnings that are subject to withholding taxes of the Group’s subsidiary established in Mainland China. In the opinion of the directors, it is not probable that these subsidiaries will distribute such earnings in the foreseeable future.

 

13.LOSS FOR THE YEAR

 

The Group’s loss for the year is arrived at after charging/(crediting):

14.DIVIDEND

 

The Directors do not recommend the payment of any dividend for each of the years ended 31 December 2019 and 2020.

 

15.LOSS PER SHARE

 

The calculation of the basic earnings per share amount is based on the loss for the year attributable to ordinary equity holders of the Company and the weighted average number of ordinary shares of approximately 315,513,000 and HK$330,357,000 respectively in issue during the year ended 31 December 2019 and 2020.

 

No adjustment has been made to the basic loss per share amounts presented for the year ended 31 December 2019 and 2020 in respect of a dilution as the impact of the share options outstanding had an anti-dilutive effect on the basic loss per share amounts presented.

 

  The calculation of the basic and diluted earnings per share is based on the following:        
           
     2019   2020 
      HK$'000    HK$'000 
  Loss          
  Loss for the purpose of calculating basic and diluted earnings per share   (33,618)   (46,767)

Carrying amount     
At 31 December 2019   10,996 
At 31 December 2020   11,703 
      

Goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated, at acquisition, to the cash generating units (“CGUs”) that are expected to benefit from that business combination. The carrying amount of goodwill had been allocated as follows:

 

   2019   2020 
    HK$'000    HK$'000 
Provision of big data service:          
Sichuan Lecaiyuntian Internet Technology Co., Ltd *  ("Sichuan Lecaiyuntian")   10,996    11,703 
           

* The company registered as limited liability company under PRC law and the English name is for identification only.

 

The recoverable amounts of the CGUs are determined on the basis of their fair value less costs of disposal using discounted cash flow method. The key assumptions for the discounted cash flow method are those regarding the discount rates, growth rates and budgeted gross margin and revenue during the period. The Group estimates discount rates using pre-tax rates that reflect current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the CGUs. The growth rates are based on long-term average economic growth rate of the geographical area in which the businesses of the CGUs operate. Budgeted gross margin and revenue are based on past practices and expectations on market development.

 

As at 31 December 2019 and 2020, the Group prepares cash flow forecasts derived from the most recent financial budgets approved by the directors for the next five years with the residual period using the growth rate of 0% and 0% respectively. These rates do not exceed the average long-term growth rate for the relevant markets.

 

As at 31 December 2019 and 2020, the rate used to discount the forecast cash flows from the Group’s provision of big data service is 21.6% and 21.1% respectively.

In the opinion of the directors, as at 31 December 2020, the fair value of the collateral approximated to RMB40,085,000 (equivalent to approximately HK$47,627,000).

The interest for the first twelve months (being HK$5,940,000) shall be paid by Yourich Inc on the drawdown date and made out of and deducted from the proceeds of the principal of the Loan B. The Loan B was guaranteed by Ms. Liu He ("Ms. Liu"), a director and sole beneficial owner of Yourich Inc and was secured by 95% of the entire equity interests in Artix Investment Co., Ltd. (the "Target") held by Ms. Liu and any rights and interests derived thereof.

 

The principal amount of the Loan B together with all accrued and unpaid interests shall be repayable in full upon expiry of two years after the drawdown date. Yourich Inc may prepay the principal amount of the Loan B in full at any time before the maturity date together with corresponding interest accrued. However, if the principal amount of the Loan B is prepaid before the expiry of the first twelve months after the drawdown date, the interest paid for the first twelve months shall not be returned to the Yourich Inc.

The Group’s trading terms with its customers are usually on credit, in some instances where payment in advance is required. The credit period is generally two months for two major customers. Each customer has a maximum credit limit. The Group seeks to maintain strict control over its outstanding receivables and has a credit control department to minimise credit risk. Overdue balances are reviewed regularly by senior management. The Group does not hold any collateral or other credit enhancements over its trade receivable balances.

 

The Group applies the simplified approach under IFRS 9 to provide for expected credit losses using the lifetime expected loss provision for all trade receivables. To measure the expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics and the days past due. The expected credit losses also incorporate forward looking information.
