Stepping on thunder, Evergrande and China Mobile’s “private network communication” scam! The A-share company suffered a huge loss of 10 billion yuan

Since the third quarter of 2021, there have been at least 10 or 20 listed companies stepping on leihengda, but it is still rare for state-owned enterprises to step on leihengda.

On the evening of April 18, Shanghai Electric Group Company Limited(601727) released its annual report. The operating revenue decreased by 4.3%, but it was still as high as 131.3 billion yuan. However, the net profit suffered a huge loss of nearly 10 billion yuan, compared with a profit of 3.758 billion yuan the previous year. The main reason for this result is that the previously disclosed subsidiaries suffered from “private network communication” scams, and some subordinate enterprises held assets related to Evergrande group and accrued impairment losses of more than 2 billion, which also had an impact on the performance.

Many investors said they could not understand the company’s continuous stepping on thunder, ” Shanghai Electric Group Company Limited(601727) is so awesome that thunder must be stepped on” and “who made the decision”. In July 5th last year, the China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) had filed a top note of the company’s alleged disclosure of information, which is still under investigation.

several subsidiaries step on leihengda

provision for impairment exceeds 2 billion

Shanghai Electric Group Company Limited(601727) held the 66th meeting of the 5th session of the board of directors on April 18, 2022, deliberated and adopted the proposal on the provision for impairment of assets held by subordinate enterprises related to Evergrande group.

As of December 31, 2021, the notes receivable of Shanghai Electric Group Company Limited(601727) subsidiary to Evergrande group and its member enterprises was 2.173 billion yuan, the accounts receivable was 1.781 billion yuan, and the contract assets were 275 million yuan, totaling 4.229 billion yuan (hereinafter referred to as “accounts receivable”). Due to the difficulties in the operation of Evergrande group, some subsidiaries of the company have successively overdue receivables related to Evergrande group. The company believes that there are obvious signs of impairment, so it is necessary to withdraw individual impairment reserves.

Based on the above, in 2021, based on the historical credit loss, business model, current situation and prediction of the future situation of each subsidiary of Evergrande group, the company evaluated the different situations of the expected cash flow distribution under multiple scenarios, and made corresponding provision for impairment according to the expected credit loss rate under different scenarios and the probability weight of each scenario.

Finally, the subsidiaries of the company made provision for impairment of receivables of Evergrande group totaling RMB 2.023 billion. The impact of the above provision on the company’s net profit attributable to shareholders of Listed Companies in 2021 was a loss of RMB 761 million.
