7 2. OPERATING SEGMENT INFORMATION For management purposes, the Group is organised into business units based on their products and services and has three reportable operating segments as follows: (a) the property development segment – development and sale of residential and commercial properties; (b) the property investment and management segment – investment and management of business parks and commercial properties; (c) the corporate and others segment – the Group’s corporate management services and others. Management monitors the results of the Group’s operating segments separately for the purpose of making decisions about resources allocation and performance assessment. Segment performance is evaluated based on reportable segment profit/loss, which is a measure of adjusted profit/loss before tax. The adjusted profit/loss before tax is measured consistently with the Group’s profit before tax except that bank interest income, non-lease-related finance costs, changes in fair value of financial assets at fair value and other income/(loss) from financial assets at fair value are excluded from such measurement. Segment assets exclude deferred tax assets, certain deposits, bank and cash balances, prepaid tax and financial assets at fair value as these assets are managed on a group basis. Segment liabilities exclude certain interest-bearing bank borrowings, tax payable, deferred tax liabilities, and amounts due to group companies and non-controlling shareholders as these liabilities are managed on a group basis. During the current and prior period, there were no intersegment transactions. Segment information is presented on the Group’s primary segment reporting basis, by business segment. No geographical segment information is presented as over 90% (202 5: over 90%) of the Group’s revenue is derived from customers based in Chinese Mainland, and over 90% (202 5: over 90%) of the Group’s assets are located in Chinese Mainland. During the current and prior period, no revenue from transactions with a single external customer amounted to 10% or more of the Group’s total revenue.

FINANCIAL REVIEW The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2026 are consistent with those used in the las t financial year ended 31 December 2025, except that the Group has applied, for the first time, the revised Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (“HKFRS”, which include all HKFRSs, Hong Kong Accounting Standards and Interpretations) issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants which are effective for the Group’s financial years beginning on or after 1 January 2026. RESULTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 30 JUNE 2026 The revenue of the Group decreased from RMB6,467.8 million for the corre sponding six months ended 30 June 2025 to RMB1,122.0 million for the six months ended 30 June 2026, decreased by RMB5,345.8 million. Due to prolonged property slump in the Mainlan d China and insufficient property purchasing power, sales revenue from property delivery for the current period has a significant drop.

21 PROSPECTS In the first half of 2026, t he Chinese government implemented proactive supply -side and demand -side policies to reduce risks in the real estate sector, reduce existing inventory, and establish a "new real estate development model". To boost sluggish homebuyer confidence and shorten t he market adjustment period, local governments implemented city -specific relief measures with greater flexibility, such as targeted home purchase subsidies and tax breaks to alleviate transaction costs. Financial regulators have also lowered mortgage rates and down payment requirements in several markets to ease borrowing costs. Local governments, with central government policy support, directly purchased existing unsold real estate projects from the market. These repurchased properties are then transforme d as affordable public housing, talent dormitories, and resettlement housing. The real estate industry is shifting from a "high -leverage, high-turnover" model to a "refined, sustainable" model, with development projects primarily located in core first- and second -tier cities. Real estate companies are adopting more cautious and low -risk investments. First- and second -tier cities, due to their population and industrial advantages, have stronger market resilience and faster destocking, while third - and fourth-tier cities have larger inventories, slower inventory turnover and therefore a slower recovery pace. The speed of market recovery depends largely on the pace of economic recovery, residents' income expectations as well as new real estate policy stimulus. In the second half of 2026, the PRC real estate industry is expected to gradually and show signs of recovery, driven by continued government stimulus measures, maintenance of low interest rates, and a rebound in consumer confidence. This is evidenced by the significant increase in secondary market transactions in first-tier cities. The Group keeps financial stability and liquidity as its primary operational focus. It is achieved through flexible quantity and price management strategies, providing high -quality products to enhance brand image, and utilizing various tools to accelerate sales revenue collection and ensure cash flow. Furthermore, the Group will increase brand output and expand its construction management business so as to maintain its leading position in the industry and remain one of the most well-managed real estate companies. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE The Company has adopted and complied with all the mandatory disclosure requirements and the applicable code provisions as set out in the section h eaded “Part 2 — Principles of good corporate governance, code provisions and recommended best practices” of the Corporate Governance Code (the “CG Code”) as set out in Appendix C1 of the Listing Rules throughout the six months ended 30 June 2026 with the e xception of code provisions mentioned below: Under the code provision C.1.5, generally independent non -executive directors and other non -executive directors should attend general meetings to gain and develop a balanced understanding of the views of shareholders.
