7 (3) Critical Accounting Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated interim financial information requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, incomes and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. In preparing this condensed consolidated interim financial information, the significant judgements made by managem ent in applying the G roup’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncerta inty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025. (4) Segment Information For management purposes, the Group is organised into business units based on the projects and has three reportable segments as follows: (a) the property development segment; (b) the property investment segment consists of property investment, leasing and management operations; and (c) the other segment consists of corporate and other income and expense items. Management monitors the results of the Group ’s operating segments separately for the purpose of making decisions about the resources allocation and performance assessment. Segment performance is evaluated based on reportable segment result, which is a measure of adjusted profit before tax. The adjusted profit before tax is measured consistently with the Group’s profit before tax except that finance and interest income and finance cost are excluded from such measurement. Segment assets exclude deferred tax assets as these assets are managed on a group basis. Segment liabilities exclude deferred tax liabilities as these liabilities are managed on a group basis. The bank and other borrowings pledged by the assets of the property investment segm ent used in financing the property development activities were considered as segment liabilities in property development segment by management. During the current and prior periods, there were no inter-segment transactions.

(11) Trade and Other Payables and Accruals Trade payables are non-interest-bearing, while bills payables are interest -bearing.

Pursuant to the terms of the guarantees, upon default in mortgage payments by any of these purchasers, the Group is responsible for repaying the relevant outstanding mortgage principals together with the accrued interest and penalties owed by the defaulting purchasers to the banks, and the Group is entitled but not limited to take over the legal titles and possession of the related properties.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 14 During the period under review, the Group was engaged in property development and investment businesses. The Group currently mainly holds the Shenzhen GDH City Project and certain investment properties in Shenzhen City, the Guangzhou GDH Future City Project in Baiyun District, the Guangzhou Laurel House Project, etc. in Yuexiu District, Guangzhou City, the Foshan Laurel House Project and the Foshan One Mansion Project in Chancheng District, Foshan City, the Zhuhai Laurel House Project in Jinwan District, Zhuhai City, the Zhongshan GDH City Project in Cuiheng New District, Zhongshan City, the Jiangmen One Mansion Project and the Jiangmen GDH City Project in Pengjiang District, Jiangmen City and the Huizhou One Mansion Project in Dayawan District, Huizhou City in the People’s Republic of China (the “ PRC” or the “ Chinese Mainland”). According to the economic statistical data for the first half of 2026 released by the PRC’s National Bureau of Statistics, the PRC’s gross domestic product (“GDP”) grew by approximately 4.7% over the same period last year, representing a quarter-on-quarter increase of 0.9 percentage point in the second quarter. Among which, the PRC’s GDP in the first quarter increased by 5.0% year-on-year, while that in the second quarter increased by 4.3% year -on-year, and the per capita nominal disposable income of national residents recorded a year -on-year growth of approximately 5.2%. According to the commodity residential housing price movements of the Guangdong-Hong Kong- Macao Greater Bay Area (the “Greater Bay Area”) in first half of 2026 based on the statistics of CRIC, as compared to first half of 2025, the average commodity residential housing price of Shenzhen City, Guangzhou City, Foshan City and Huizhou City increased year -on-year by approximately 12%, 2%, 3% and 9%, respectively; while that of Dongguan City, Zhuhai City, Zhongshan City, Jiangmen City and Zhaoqing City decreased year-on-year by approximately 11%, 12%, 2%, 6% and 3%, respectively. In the first half of th e year, the external environment was complex and severe with upheaval and turmoil intertwined. Various geopolitical risks, global trade frictions and changes in international financial policies posed numerous instabilities and uncertain ties on the Chinese economy . Domestic development also faced practical challenges such as insu fficient recovery of domestic demand and the continu ing pressure of structural transformation. The Chinese government implemented more proactive and impactful macroeconomic policies with precision. Despite facing pressures, the national economy maintained a steady development , with gradual improvement in production and supply, robust safeguards for people’s livelihoods, and accelerated cultivation of new growth drivers. The resilience of economic development continued to be evident, and the overall conditions maintained upward momentum characterised by overall stability, steady progress, and a shift towards new and high -quality growth. Faced with the dual challenges of a reshaping industry landscape and pressure on internal operating efficiency, the Group actively responded to the central government’s policy directives of “striving to stabilising the real estate market and accelerating the establishment of a new real estate development model ”, strictly implemented the policy requirements of controlling new supply, reducing inventory and optimising supply, firmly safeguarded the bottom line of operational safety, and steadily advanced all key tasks for the year. Demonstrating operational resilience amid adversity, the Group adhered to the principle of “accelerating destocking while strengthening refined management ”, and further advanced the implementation of “refined organisation, refined management and lean operation ”, standardised corporate governance structures, as well as enhanced the building of professional capabilities across all business segments. On the sales front, the Group implemented measures with precision to fully ensure destocking and cash collection; for office buildings and other properties, the Group continued to refine operation for hi gher tenant satisfaction and renewal rates, thus effectively attracted and retained tenants. The Group strictly adhered to the principle of “production based on sales, expenditure based on production”, further improved its tiered and classified expense control system and deepened its full-cycle cost control. The Group maintained rigorous control over its project quality to drive word-of-mouth promotion through high quality and guaranteed delivery, striving to achieve a virtuous cycle of “promoting sales through delivery”. Guided by the
Page 15
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (continued) 15 prudent operating philosophy of “living within its means and maintaining controllable risks ”, the Group actively seized strategic opportunities in the Greater Bay Area, and strengthened precision investment initiatives and selectively acquired premium assets in core regions, thereby consistently driving the Company’s high-quality development and enhancing brand value. Results During the period under review, the consolidated revenue of the Group amounted to approximately HK$3,532 million (six months ended 30 June 2025: HK$5,752 million), representing a decrease of approximately 38.6% from the same period last year. The decrease in revenue was mainly attributable to the decrease in the sale of gross floor area ( “GFA”) of pr operties held for sale. During the period under review, the Group recorded a profit attributable to owners of the Company of approximately HK$111 million (six months ended 30 June 2025: HK$282 million). The major factors affecting the results of the Group for the six months ended 30 June 2026 include the following: (a) the properties delivered by the Group during the period under review were mainly the Foshan One Mansion Project and the Guangzhou GDH Future City Project; among which the Guangzhou GDH Future City Project had higher gross profit margins, with a decrease in the GFA delivered during the period under review, therefore the profit derived from the sale of properties decreased as compared to the same period in 2025; (b) due to the latest real estate market conditions and the indication of impairment in certain property projects of the Group, the Group recognised an inventory impairment provision of approximately HK$121 million during the period under review (six months ended 30 June 2025: HK$768 million); and (c) the Group recorded fair value loss es on investment properties (net of relevant deferred tax expenses) of approximately HK$10.91 million during the period under review (six months ended 30 June 2025: HK$98.81 million). Interim Dividend The Board resolved not to declare the payment of an interim dividend for the six months ended 30 June 2026 (six months ended 30 June 2025: nil).

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (continued) 22 Financial Review Key Financial Indicators For the six months ended 30 June Note 2026 2025 Change Profit attributable to owners of the Company (HK$ million) 111 282 -60.6% Return on equity (%) 1 3.5% 7.6% -4.1 ppt 30 June 2026 31 December 2025 Change Net asset value (HK$ million) 4,088 3,779 +8.2% Note: 1. Return on equity = Profit attributable to owners of the Company ÷ average equity attributable to owners of the Company During the first half of 2026, the Group recorded profit attributable to owners of the Company decreased as compared to the same period in 2025, which was mainly attributable to a decrease in the GFA delivered of the Guangzhou GDH Future City Project with higher gross profit margins during the period under review , therefore the profit derived from the sale of properties decreased as compared to the same period in 2025. For details, please refer to the section headed “Results” in this Management Discussion and Analysis. Expenses and Finance Costs During the first half of 2026, the Group recorded selling and marketing expenses of approximately HK$95 million (six mo nths ended 30 June 2025: HK$108 million), representing a decrease of approximately 12.0% from that for the same period last year. The decrease in selling and marketing expenses was mainly due to the decrease in the commission expense and the property management fee. The Group’s administrative expenses for the first half of 2026 amounted to approximately HK$75 million (six months ended 30 June 2025: HK$71 million), representing an increase of approximately 5.6% from that for the same period last year. During the period under review, the Group borrowed loans to support its business development and recorded finance costs of approximately HK$271 million (six months ended 30 June 2025: HK$348 million), of which approximately HK$79 million was capitalised while the remaining portion of approximately HK$192 million was charged to the statement of profit or loss. Properties Held for Sale and Contract Liabilities As at 30 June 2026, the Group held completed properties held for sale amounted to approximately HK$10,102 million (31 December 2025: HK$11,702 million) and properties held for sale under development amounted to approximately HK$8,353 million (31 December 2025: HK$8,562 million), with a total amount of approximately HK$18,455 million (31 December 2025: HK$20,264 million). Amongst them, the sales amount of properties that have been contracted and received but have not yet been delivered was approximately HK$4,467 million (31 December 2025: HK$5,972 million), which was stated as contract liabilities and would be recognised as revenue upon delivery of the relevant properties.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (continued) 23 Financial Resources and Liquidity As at 30 June 2026, the equity attributable to owners of the Company was approximately HK$3,291 million (31 December 2025: HK$3,049 million), representing an increase of approximately 7.9% from that as at the end of 2025. Based on the number of shares in issue as at 30 June 2026, the net asset value per share at the period end was approximately HK$1.92 (31 December 2025: HK$1.78), representing an increase of approximately 7.9% from that as at the end of 2025. As at 30 June 2026, the Group had cash and bank balances (including restricted bank balances and cash and cash equivalents) of approximately HK$3,058 milli on (31 December 2025: HK$3,356 million), representing a decrease of approximately 8.9% from that as at the end of last year. The decrease in cash and bank balances was mainly due to more repayments of borrowings from banks and related parties during the period under review; approximately 98.7% was in RMB and approximately 1.3% was in HKD. Net cash inflows from operating activities for the first half of 2026 amounted to approximately HK$670 million (six months ended 30 June 2025: HK$1,772 million). As most of the transactions in the Group’s daily operations in the Chinese Mainland are denominated in RMB, currency exposure from these transactions is low. During the period under review, the Group did not take the initiative to perform currency hedge for such t ransactions. The Group believed that no significant impact was caused by the fluctuation of RMB exchange rate on the Group’s financial position as there is a natural hedging mechanism. Meanwhile, the Group dynamically monitored the foreign exchange exposur e and made necessary adjustments in accordance with the change in market environment. As at 30 June 2026, the Group had interest-bearing borrowings from certain banks and related parties of the Company amounting to approximately HK$17,878 million (31 Dece mber 2025: HK$18,269 million) in aggregate, from which interest -bearing borrowings from related parties amounting to approximately HK$7,794 million (31 December 2025: HK$8,004 million), accounting for approximately 43.6% (31 December 2025: 43.8%) of the to tal interest -bearing borrowings; the gearing ratio 1 was approximately 365.1% (31 December 2025: 399.9%). According to the relevant loan agreements, approximately HK$8,211 million of the interest-bearing loans are repayable within one year; approximately HK $230 million are repayable within one to two years; approximately HK$5,523 million are repayable within two to five years; and the remaining approximately HK$3,914 million are repayable after five years. The Group obtained funds for business development through different financing channels and effectively controlled its finance costs. As at 30 June 2026, the weighted average effective interest rate of the Group’s bank and other borrowings was 3.20% (31 December 2025: 3.27%) per annum. As at 30 June 2026, the banking facilities available to the Group were approximately RMB791 million (equivalent to approximately HK$911 million). The Group reviews its funding needs from time to time according to the existing projects and other new investment businesses and considers obtaining funds through various financing means and channels so as to secure adequate financial resources for business development. 1 Gearing ratio = (Interest-bearing loans + Lease liabilities - Cash and cash equivalents) ÷ Net assets
Page 24
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (continued) 24 Asset Pledged and Contingent Liabilities As at 30 June 2026, the Group’s certain assets amounting to approximately HK$12,696 million (31 December 2025: HK$8,531 million) were pledged to secure certain bank loans. In addition, as at 30 June 2026, the Group provided guarantees of approximately HK$2,567 million (31 December 2025: HK$3,183 million) to certain banks in relation to the mortgage loans on properties sold (please refer to note 12 to this announcement for details). Save for the above, the Group did not have any other material contingent liabilities as at 30 June 2026. Risks and Uncertainties As the Group i s engaged in property development and investment businesses in the Chinese Mainland, the risks and uncertainties of its business are principally associated with the property market and property prices in the Chinese Mainland, and the Group’s income in the future will be directly affected accordingly. The property market in the Chinese Mainland is affected by a number of factors which include, among others, economic environment, property supply and demand, the PRC government’s fiscal and monetary policies, t axation policies and austerity measures on the real estate sector, etc. At present, property projects held by the Group are all located in first -tier cities or the Greater Bay Area and comprise different property types and uses, thereby effectively diversifies the operating risks of the Group. As property projects have a relatively long development period, the Company may need to seek external funding to partially finance the development of such projects. As such, financing channels and finance costs are subject to the prevailing market conditions, loan interest rates and the financial position of the Group. As at 30 June 2026, the Group had total outstanding interest -bearing loans of approximately HK$17,878 million (31 December 2025: HK$18,269 million). According to the applicable accounting standards, investment properties of the Group were carried at fair value. The fair values of these investment properties are subject to the prices in the property markets in which they are located as at the end of each reporting periods. The fair value changes of such investment properties are recognised in the statement of profit or loss and affect the profit of the Group. As the property development business has a relatively long product life cycle, the Group’s futu re results and cash flows will be relatively volatile. To reduce the volatility of its revenue and profit, the commercial properties of the Guangzhou Laurel House Project and investment properties of the Shenzhen GDH City Project are held by the Group for lease in order to generate stable rental income for the Group in the future. As most of the Company’s business operations are located in the Chinese Mainland, the Company faces foreign currency risks due to exchange gain/loss from exchange rate fluctuations as well as currency conversion risk due to converted net asset value fluctuations of property development and investment projects in the Chinese Mainland. To effectively manage foreign currency risk, the Company closely monitors foreign exchan ge markets, and utilises multiple strategic approaches, such as optimising cash management strategy and deploying project finance instruments, to control foreign exchange risk.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (continued) 25 Employee and Remuneration Policy As at 30 June 2026, the Group had 282 (31 December 2025: 291) employees. The remuneration policy of the Group is designed to ensure that the remuneration is competitive and in line with the development objectives and business performance of the Group. The rem uneration package includes fixed salary, discretionary bonus, insurance and fringe benefits. The remuneration standards are based on factors such as qualifications, experience, job responsibility and performance of individual employees and market conditions. Discretionary bonus is subject to the performance-based incentive policy. In terms of employee training, in order to enhance its employees’ capabilities and skills, the Group encourages them to attend training and refresher programmes in their spare ti me for self - improvement, and provides targeted professional training sessions as per its business development requirements and on an as-needed basis. Outlook In the first half of 2026, the Chinese economy was in a critical phase of trans ition in its growth drivers and structural optimisation and upgrad e. The Chinese government adhere d to the general principle of pursuing progress while maintaining stability, focusing on stabilising employment, supporting market entities, and bolstering development expectations. Despite facing pressures, the Chinese econom ic development continued to maintain stable momentum as a whole , shifting towards new and high-quality growth, demonstrating remarkable resilience and vitality. The central government adjusted its regulatory policies towards the real estate market from “promoting a halt to the decline and a return to stability” to “striving to stabilising the real estate market ”, placing greater emphasis on the comprehensive scope and sustainability of policies, whilst reflecting the central government ’s approach of “ tackling hard challenges ” to stabilising market. With the implementation of 《 「十五五」規劃綱要》(Outline of the 15th Five-Year Plan), the tone has been set to “promote the high-quality development of the real estate sector” and various targeted and practical measures have been introduced, posing higher requirements for the development of the industry. Local governments have closely followed the main theme of “reducing inventory, revitalising existing stock, and optimi sing structure ”, strengthening city -specific measures and precise implementation of category-based guidance, covering measures such as adjusting purchase and price restrictions, lowering mortgage interest rates and transaction taxes and fees, raising provident fund loan caps, providing home purchase subsidies, and promoting housing “trade-in” programmes, comprehensively lowering the threshold for home purchases and reducing related homeownership costs. At the same time, complement ary measures such as optimising supply quality and improving the construction standards for “quality housing ” have been introduced , gradually restoring the market confidence. Looking forward to the second half of the year, given the pivotal role of stabilising the real estate sector in expanding domestic demand and re storing household balance sheets, it is expected that the Chinese government will continue to optimise and adjust real estate policies, adopting a two- pronged approach addressing both supply and demand to boost the recovery of market confidence and promote the stable and healthy operation of the real estate market. “Good city + quality housing” will continue to be a strong market appeal, and it is expected that the new house sales in core first-tier and second-tier cities will become steady and their prices will stabilise. In the long run, the Chinese government will continue to take various measures to solidify the foundation for consumption growth, expand effective investment, and promote a smooth transition betwee n old and new growth drivers, thereby promoting the Chinese economy towards effective improvement in the quality and reasonable growth in the quantity. Benefiting from the continuing concentration
Page 26
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (continued) 26 of China’s population and industries in metropolitan areas, the Greater Bay Area will continue to see a trend of net population inflow in the future with the continuous optimisation and upgrade of its industrial structure, and appetites of people in the Greater Bay Area for “quality housing” are still relatively adequate, which can effectively support the moderate growth in inelastic demand and housing improvement demand. With the full implementation of the development strategy of the Greater Bay Area and its economy maintaining upward momentum, the Group’s projects such as Shenzhen GDH City, Guangzhou GDH Future City, Guangzhou Laurel House, Foshan Laurel House, Foshan One Mansion, Zhuhai Laurel House, Zhongshan GDH City, Jiangmen GDH City, Jiangmen One Mansion and Huizhou One Mansion are all located in the core cities of the Greater Bay Area and will benefit from the strong development momentum of the Greater Bay Area. The Group will continue to position itself strategically as “the influential comprehensive urban development expert in the Greater Bay Area”, seek progress while maintaining stability, make every effort to complete the construction, sales and operation of the existing projects, actively participate in the construction of “ quality housing” in the Grea ter Bay Area to better meet the people’s demand for high-quality residential living, and seize opportunities to explore high-quality projects in the core areas of the Greater Bay Area through prudent forecast of the market situation. It will also continue to fully utilise the advantages of a provincial state -owned enterprise in the Greater Bay Area, assess the current situation, develop steadily, adhere to the spirit of ingenuity, boost the Group’s brand reputation and awareness and enhance the Group’s competitiveness in the industry. Under the leadership of the Board, the Group is confident in the prospect of its business development and will actively promote the development of its property business in order to create greater returns for the shareholders of the Company as we did in the past.
