3. Whether the relevant accounting treatment meets the requirements of accounting standards
According to Article 2 of the accounting standards for Business Enterprises No. 13 - contingencies, "contingencies refer to uncertain events formed by past transactions or events, and the results must be determined by the occurrence or non occurrence of some future events." And Article 4 "if the obligations related to contingencies meet the following conditions at the same time, they shall be recognized as estimated liabilities: (I) the obligation is the current obligation undertaken by the enterprise; (II) the performance of the obligation is likely to lead to the outflow of economic benefits from the enterprise; (III) the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably."
In view of the fact that this matter is a lawsuit dispute between the company and 19 original shareholders of Jiangnan garden during the acquisition of Jiangnan garden, according to the court's judgment in 2021, the company is required to undertake the obligation of equity acquisition, and the performance of this obligation is likely to lead to the outflow of economic benefits from the enterprise. At the same time, the amount of this obligation can be measured reliably and meet the conditions for the recognition of estimated liabilities.
To sum up, the company recognizes the non contractual interest expense and the non contractual liability that meet the requirements of the above accounting standards, and recognizes the non contractual interest expense of the company in 2021.
Question 2. In combination with question 1, please explain the rationality of your company's provision of large estimated liabilities in the current period, and whether there is insufficient provision in the previous period and improper earnings management in the current period.
reply:
According to paragraph 4 of Article 11 of the agreement on issuing shares and paying cash to purchase assets, "Party A promises to announce the 2016 annual report in the listed company, and Party B will pay the compensation in accordance with the profit forecast agreement After fulfilling the obligation of compensation, Party B has the right to submit a written application to Party A for Party A's acquisition of the remaining 20% equity of Jiangnan garden before December 31, 2017. Within 6 months from the date of Party B's written application, Party A shall complete the acquisition of the remaining 20% equity of Jiangnan garden. The value of 100% equity of Jiangnan garden is valued at 11 times of the net profit attributable to the parent company after deducting non recurring profits and losses audited by Jiangnan garden in 2016. Finally, it is determined through negotiation with reference to the appraisal value of the appraisal report issued by the appraisal institution with securities qualification and filed by Yunnan SASAC. Party A will acquire the remaining 20% equity of Jiangnan garden by issuing shares. The shares of the listed company obtained by the counterparty shall not be transferred within 12 months from the date of listing according to the provisions of Shenzhen Stock Exchange, and there will be no further locking period. Party A will no longer agree on performance compensation terms when acquiring the remaining 20% equity. "
According to the terms of the above asset purchase agreement, the price for the acquisition of the remaining 20% equity of Jiangnan garden needs to be negotiated and determined by all parties, and the approval and filing procedures shall be performed. Secondly, in the case of equity dispute between the company and Yang Jianguo and Changzhou Zhongchi, Changzhou intermediate people's court made the first instance judgment only in 2021. Before that, the company could not judge the final judgment result of the court and failed to meet the conditions for confirming the estimated liabilities. In 2021, the company recognized the estimated liabilities based on the principle of prudence according to the first instance judgment of Yang Jianguo and Changzhou Zhongchi case and the accounting standards.
Question 3: other matters that your company thinks should be explained.
reply:
With regard to the equity dispute litigation between the company and Yang Jianguo and Changzhou Zhongchi, the company actively sought new evidence to respond to the lawsuit, communicated with the plaintiff for many times, and actively sought out of court settlement to minimize the adverse impact of equity dispute litigation on listed companies.
