The key audit matters are the most important matters that we consider to audit the current financial statements according to our professional judgment. The response to these matters is based on the overall audit of the financial statements and the formation of audit opinions. We will not express separate opinions on these matters.

(I) accounting treatment of franchise rights

1. Item description

See notes to financial statements “III. 10. Financial instruments”, “III. 19. Intangible assets”, “III. 23. Estimated liabilities”, “v. 10. Non current assets due within one year”, “v. 12.

Estimated liabilities” Anhui Zhonghuan Environmental Protection Technology Co.Ltd(300692) according to the initial construction cost of sewage treatment plant and waste incineration power plant, it is recognized as the amount of franchise right. Franchises with the terms of “guaranteed quantity or guaranteed service quantity” and “basic settlement price or basic price” are recognized as financial assets, and franchises without the terms of “guaranteed quantity or guaranteed service quantity” and “basic settlement price or basic price” are recognized as intangible assets. As of December 31, 2021, the book value of Anhui Zhonghuan Environmental Protection Technology Co.Ltd(300692) franchise rights is 3713212900 yuan, accounting for 68.85% of the total assets of Anhui Zhonghuan Environmental Protection Technology Co.Ltd(300692) franchise rights.

During the operation period agreed in the contract, Anhui Zhonghuan Environmental Protection Technology Co.Ltd(300692) in principle, ensure the recovery of the initial investment principal and interest income, and then recognize the operation income. In the process of operation, the management estimates and reviews the subsequent equipment renewal expenditure of the franchise right at the end of each year, and adjusts the original book amount according to the current best estimate.

The management needs to make significant judgments and estimates when determining the discount rate of franchise rights, subsequent renovation expenses and impairment assessment of franchise rights. Therefore, we recognize franchise rights as key audit matters. 2. Audit response

Anhui Zhonghuan Environmental Protection Technology Co.Ltd(300692) Management (hereinafter referred to as management) is responsible for other information. Other information includes the information covered in Anhui Zhonghuan Environmental Protection Technology Co.Ltd(300692) 2021 annual report, but does not include the financial statements and our audit report.

Our audit opinion on the financial statements does not cover other information, and we will not issue any form of assurance conclusion on other information.

In combination with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read other information and consider whether other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or the information we have learned in the audit process, or there seems to be material misstatement.

Based on the work we have performed, if we determine that there is a material misstatement in other information, we should report that fact. In this regard, we have nothing to report.

5、 Responsibilities of management and governance for financial statements

The management is responsible for preparing the financial statements in accordance with the provisions of the accounting standards for business enterprises to achieve a fair reflection, and designing, implementing and maintaining necessary internal control so that the financial statements are free from material misstatement caused by fraud or error.

When preparing the financial statements, the management is responsible for evaluating the going concern ability of Anhui Zhonghuan Environmental Protection Technology Co.Ltd(300692) and disclosing the matters related to going concern (if applicable), and applying the going concern assumption, unless the management plans to liquidate Anhui Zhonghuan Environmental Protection Technology Co.Ltd(300692) , terminate the operation or has no other realistic choice.

The management is responsible for supervising the financial reporting process of Anhui Zhonghuan Environmental Protection Technology Co.Ltd(300692) .

6、 Responsibilities of certified public accountants for the audit of financial statements

Our goal is to obtain reasonable assurance on whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement due to fraud or error, and issue an audit report containing audit opinions. Reasonable assurance is a high-level assurance, but it does not guarantee that the audit performed in accordance with the audit standards will always be found when a major misstatement exists. Misstatement may be caused by fraud or error. If it is reasonably expected that the misstatement alone or in summary may affect the economic decisions made by the users of the financial statements based on the financial statements, the misstatement is generally considered to be significant.

In the process of carrying out the audit work in accordance with the audit standards, we use professional judgment and maintain professional doubt. At the same time, we also carry out the following work:

(1) Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of financial statements due to fraud or error, design and implement audit procedures to deal with these risks, and obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence as the basis for issuing audit opinions. Since fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omission, misrepresentation or override of internal control, the risk of failing to find major misstatement caused by fraud is higher than that caused by error.

(2) Understand the internal control related to audit in order to design appropriate audit procedures, but the purpose is not to express an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control.

(3) Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies selected by the management and the rationality of accounting estimates and related disclosures.

(4) Draw conclusions on the appropriateness of management’s use of going concern assumptions. At the same time, according to the audit evidence obtained, draw a conclusion on whether there are major uncertainties in the matters or circumstances that may lead to major doubts about Anhui Zhonghuan Environmental Protection Technology Co.Ltd(300692) going concern ability. If we conclude that there is significant uncertainty, the auditing standards require us to draw the attention of statement users to the relevant disclosures in the financial statements in the audit report; If the disclosure is insufficient, we should express a non unqualified opinion. Our conclusions are based on the information available as of the date of the audit report. However, future events or circumstances may cause Anhui Zhonghuan Environmental Protection Technology Co.Ltd(300692) unable to continue its business.

(5) Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, and evaluate whether the financial statements fairly reflect relevant transactions and events.

(6) Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence on the financial information of entities or business activities in Anhui Zhonghuan Environmental Protection Technology Co.Ltd(300692) to express an audit opinion on the financial statements. We are responsible for guiding, supervising and implementing the group audit, and take full responsibility for the audit opinions.

We communicated with the management on the planned audit scope, schedule and major audit findings, including the internal control defects that we identified in the audit.

We also provide a statement to the management that we have complied with the professional ethics requirements related to independence, and communicate with the management all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be considered to affect our independence, as well as relevant preventive measures.

From the matters communicated with the management, we determine which matters are the most important for the audit of the current financial statements, thus constituting key audit matters. We describe these matters in the audit report, unless laws and regulations prohibit the public disclosure of these matters, or in rare cases, if the negative consequences of communicating a matter in the audit report are reasonably expected to exceed the benefits in the public interest, we determine that we should not communicate the matter in the audit report.
