Whether the related party transactions affect the operating independence of the issuer and whether there is interest transfer, and the specific measures to reduce the related party transactions with controlling shareholders and actual controllers in the future should also be disclosed.
caused the loss of state-owned assets
The predecessor of Sichuan gold is Muli Rongda. In 2006, Sichuan Bureau of Geology and mineral resources (with the regional survey team of Sichuan Bureau of Geology and mineral resources and the mining company as the main investors) took the existing geological exploration results, exploration rights and mining rights of soluogou gold mine as shares, and Hanlong group, Zijin Nanfang and Beijing Jinyang jointly formed a cooperative company with capital shares.
The specific mode of cooperation is: Shuangliu Rongda, a subordinate enterprise of the Provincial Bureau of Geology and mineral resources, invested 600000 yuan to establish Muli Rongda company, and took shares at the price of exploration right and mining right to inject the exploration right of soluogou gold mine, diaojingou gold mine and mining right of soluogou gold mine in Muli County into Muli Rongda company, Then transfer 58% equity of Muli Rongda company to three companies (36% of Hanlong group, 12% of Zijin investment and 10% of Beijing Jinyang).
It is worth noting that the establishment of Muli Rongda and the content of the agreement on cooperative exploration and development of Muli soluogou gold mine are not fully carried out in accordance with the reply on cooperative operation and development of Muli soluogou gold mine (cdgf [2006] No. 72) issued by Sichuan Bureau of Geology and mineral resources. There are violations in the decision to introduce social capital and select investors without approval, And caused a loss of 62.5082 million yuan of state-owned assets.
Therefore, the regulators require the company to supplement and disclose: the specific information of relevant partners, including but not limited to the composition of shareholders, actual business, cooperation background, signing and performance of cooperation agreement, and whether necessary approval / filing procedures have been performed; Sichuan Provincial Bureau of Geology and mineral resources takes the existing geological exploration results, exploration rights and mining rights of soluogou gold mine as shares, whether it has fulfilled the necessary procedures of state-owned assets evaluation and approval, and whether the issuer's acquisition of exploration rights and mining rights is legal and compliant; The specific contents and previous changes of such exploration rights and mining rights; Whether the recognition and rectification of the loss of state-owned assets have been confirmed by the competent authorities.
In addition, the gambling listing agreement between Sichuan gold and its shareholder Muli Guotou (the main investor of Muli County Government, holding 13%) has also attracted the attention of regulators.
According to the previous report of interface news, on July 3, 2007, the people's Government of Muli Tibetan Autonomous County (Party A) and Muli Rongda (Party B) signed the agreement on joint development of soluogou gold mine, which agreed that Party B would pay Party A the cooperative development fee in cash based on 10.00% of the recoverable amount and the annual average price of Shanghai gold exchange at the time of payment. In October 2020, according to the reply of Sichuan provincial organ affairs administration, Rongda Co., Ltd. reflected the cooperative development fee that Rongda Co., Ltd. needs to pay to Muli County Government every year through capital and share increase and directional conversion. After the equity cooperation is completed, Muli Guotou holds 13.00% equity of Rongda Co., Ltd.
In this regard, the regulators require the company to supplement and disclose: the payment and later adjustment of cooperative development expenses during the reporting period, and the relevant delayed payment involving late fees and fines; According to the calculation basis of Muri SDIC's 13% shareholding, whether the capital increase and directional transfer of provident fund have fulfilled the necessary internal decision-making and approval procedures for state-owned assets management.
At the same time, Muli Rongda signed the supplementary agreement to the framework cooperation agreement with Muli County Government on July 19, 2019, which agreed that if Sichuan gold failed to be listed before September 30, 2021, the supplementary agreement and the framework cooperation agreement would become invalid, and the two sides would renegotiate on the cooperative development of soluogou.
Therefore, the regulators asked: is the arrangement of Muri SDIC's 13% shareholding a temporary agreement, and whether the two sides have an agreement to adjust the equity arrangement and other similar interest redistribution on the cooperative development of Thoreau Valley.
In addition, the regulators also asked the company to explain the accounting method and compliance of cooperative development fees during the reporting period; Supplement the new reserves and calculate whether there is a significant impact on the operating performance during the reporting period if the cooperative development expenses payable by Muli SDIC to Muli County Government are not introduced; Explain the calculation basis and method of 13% equity and whether the price is fair.
