Extract of the report of auditors Basis of opinion (extracts) We planned and performed our audit so as to obtain all the information and explanations which we considered necessary in order to provide us with sufficient evidence to give reasonable assurance as to whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. However, the evidence made available to us by the Group was limited because sufficient information and explanations necessary to enable us to understand and assess the recoverability of the amount due from related parties of RMB320 million have not been available. Details of the amounts due from related parties are set out in note 21 to the financial statements. There were no other satisfactory audit procedures that we could adopt to understand and assess the recoverability of the aforesaid amounts due from related parties. Qualified opinion arising from limitation of audit scope Except for any adjustments that might have been found to be necessary had we been able to obtain sufficient evidence concerning the recoverability of the amounts due from related parties of approximately RMB320 million, in our opinion the financial statements give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Company and of the Group as at 31 December 2004 and of the profit and cash flows of the Group for the year then ended and have been properly prepared in accordance with the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance. 4.Extracts of note 21 to the financial statements Balances with related parties Except for the amount due from Beijing Beida On-line Network Company Limited ("Beida On-line") which bears interest at an annual interest rate of 5.13%, all other balances with related parties at 31 December 2004 were interest-free. All balances with related parties were unsecured and did not have fixed repayment terms. Subsequent to the balance sheet date, an aggregate amount of balances due from related parties of approximately RMB92,000,000 has been received by the Group. Included in the amounts due from related parties as at 31 December 2004 was a sum of approximately RMB320 million, representing approximately RMB287 million as to Hong Kong Jade Bird Sci-Tech Limited and approximately RMB33 million as to Wisdom New Group Limited, both of which are controlled by Beijing Beida Jade Bird Limited ("Beida Jade Bird"). Pursuant to a share transfer agreement (the "Agreement") entered into with Beida Jade Bird on 24 March 2005, the sum was utilised as earnest money for acquiring a 44% equity interest in a property development company in Beijing. The Directors expect that the proposed acquisition transaction shall take place on or before 31 July 2005. In connection with the Agreement and the proposed acquisition, the Company has made an announcement to that effect on 24 March 2005. Pursuant to the Agreement, the earnest money shall be fully refunded to the Company, without interest, if the conditions set forth in the Agreement have not either been fulfilled or waived and hence, the proposed acquisition does not take place. In the opinion of the Directors, Beida Jade Bird is able to repay the earnest money, if so required, and a guarantee for repayment has been obtained from a company controlled by the Peking University. Should the conditions precedent (including but not limited to approval by the independent shareholders of the Company and all necessary approvals and permissions from the relevant government and/or regulatory authorities) of the Agreement be fulfilled or waived by the Company, the earnest money would be applied and recorded in the consolidated balance sheet of the Group as interest in an associated company. |
