1. Do you fully understand the production, operation and delisting risks faced by the company
In the middle of February 2022, we had a preliminary understanding of the relevant situation of Lvjing Holding Co.Ltd(000502) (hereinafter referred to as “Lvjing holding company”), and sorted out the company’s operation, financial situation, major events and risks in recent years.
The business of Lvjing holding company increased significantly in 2021. The audit scope of the 2021 annual report of Lvjing holding company includes the parent company of Lvjing holding company and 8 subsidiaries (grandchildren) included in the consolidation scope. In 2021, Lvjing holding company mainly has three companies to carry out business, namely, the subsidiary Guangzhou Hengyuan Property Management Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “Hengyuan property”), the subsidiary Shenzhen Hongyi Construction Engineering Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “Shenzhen Hongyi”), and the subsidiary Sanhe Yali information technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “Sanhe Yali”), The main business units are geographically distributed in Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Hebei. The annual income of Lvjing holdings is expected to be 150175 million yuan.
The audited net profit of Lvjing holding company in 2020 (the lower before and after deducting non recurring profits and losses) is negative and the operating income is less than 100 million yuan. According to the provisions of the stock listing rules of Shenzhen Stock Exchange (revised in 2020), the company has been warned of delisting risk.
According to article 9.3.11 of the Listing Rules of Shenzhen Stock Exchange (revised in 2022), Shenzhen Stock Exchange (hereinafter referred to as “the exchange”) will decide to terminate the listing and trading of the company’s shares in case of any of the following circumstances in 2021:
(I) the audited net profit is negative and the operating income is less than 100 million yuan, or the net profit of the most recent fiscal year after retroactive restatement is negative and the operating income is less than 100 million yuan;
(II) the audited ending net assets are negative, or the ending net assets of the latest fiscal year after retroactive restatement are negative;
(III) the financial accounting report is issued with qualified opinions, unable to express opinions or negative opinions;
(IV) failing to disclose the annual report guaranteed by more than half of the directors to be true, accurate and complete within the statutory time limit;
(V) although it complies with the provisions of article 9.3.7, it fails to apply to the exchange for cancellation of delisting risk warning within the specified time limit;
(VI) due to non-compliance with article 9.3.7, the delisting risk warning application was not reviewed and approved by the exchange.
The self regulatory guidelines for listed companies of Shenzhen Stock Exchange No. 1 – business handling stipulates matters related to operating income deduction. In addition to the audit report on the 2021 financial statements of Lvjing holding company, we also need to issue the special audit report on operating income deduction. The two bases are different. There will be differences between the operating income deducting the business income irrelevant to the main business and the income without commercial substance and the operating income recognized in the audit report.
For this matter, we will pay attention to the following matters in the audit process:
(1) Whether the operating income includes various incomes that are not directly related to the normal business operation of Lvjing holding company, or are related to the normal business operation, but because of its special nature, contingency and temporary nature, it affects the statement users to make a normal judgment on the sustainable operation ability of Lvjing holding company;
(2) Whether there is income generated from various transactions and events that are not commercially reasonable, such as no significant change in future cash flow;
We fully understand the production, operation and delisting risks faced by the company.
2. Whether the risk assessment procedures and results of business undertaking are in compliance
Before February 25, 2022, in accordance with the quality control process of the Institute and the relevant provisions of the auditing standards for Chinese certified public accountants, we carried out the business undertaking due diligence at the site of Lvjing holding company, implemented the class A + business risk assessment procedures, formed the business undertaking risk assessment report, and passed the approval of the risk committee, The risk assessment procedures and results of our business undertaking are compliant.
3. Do you have the audit time, personnel and professional competence to undertake the audit business
From mid February to April 30, 2022, when Lvjing holding company plans to make an appointment for the disclosure of the annual report, there is nearly two and a half months. Combined with the business scale of Lvjing holding company, we believe that the time for the implementation of audit procedures is sufficient.
According to the project team’s understanding of the company’s business and scale and risk assessment, and in combination with the communication with the former accountant, an on-site audit team of about 10 people, including 5 certified public accountants, is established. It is planned to be divided into two groups to carry out the audit work at the same time.
