ITEM 5. | OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS |
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the information set forth in our consolidated financial statements, together with the related notes, included in this annual report.
A. | Operating Results |
During the period covered by this annual report, our five business segments consist of our:
• | coal business; |
• | railway transportation business; |
• | coal chemical business; |
• | electric power business; and |
• | heat supply business. |
Overview
Coal Business
We are one of the primary coal producers in China and Australia. We primarily engage in the mining, washing, processing and distribution of coal through railway transportation. We offer a wide variety of coal products including thermal coal, semi-hard coking coal, semi-soft coking coal, PCI coal and mixed coal products which are sold to power plants, metallurgical mills, chemical manufacturers and trading companies in China and multiple other countries, including Japan, South Korea and Australia. Since 2004, we have expanded our operations to include railway transportation, production of coal chemicals, the generation of electricity and heat and the potash exploration business.
Our invoiced amount of coal sold includes returns, discounts, sales-related taxes, port fees and other fees and, in certain cases, transportation costs payable by customers. Gross sales, or sales income as used elsewhere in this annual report, of coal equals the invoiced amount of coal sold less returns and discounts. In 2013, we produced approximately 73.8 million tonnes of raw coal and sold approximately 104.0 million tonnes of coal, which included approximately 30.2 million tonnes of coal that was purchased externally from third parties for trading. In 2011, 2012 and 2013 our sales income of coal was approximately RMB45,181.2 million, RMB56,200.6 million and RMB54,444.8 million, respectively, which represented approximately 96.0%, 96.7% and 96.5%, respectively, of our total sales income. Domestic sales income of coal accounted for 80.7%, 82.9% and 83.2% and overseas sales income of coal accounted for 19.3%, 17.1% and 16.8% of our total sales income of coal during 2011, 2012 and 2013, respectively.
Railway Transportation Business
We own a railway network spanning over 200 kilometers, which we use primarily to transport coal, as well as other goods upon the request of our railway transportation customers. To facilitate our production and sales of coal, we provide railway transportation services to our coal customers and the Yankuang Group. The annual transport volume on our railway network has remained steady in recent years. In 2013, we transported a total of approximately 18.3 million tonnes of goods on our railway network, compared to approximately 17.5 million tonnes in 2012 and approximately 18.1 million tonnes in 2011.
We derive income from our railway transportation services through the delivery of (i) coal purchased from us on an ex-mine basis, an arrangement where customers separately bear the cost of transporting the coal they purchase to a designated location, and (ii) goods other than coal that we deliver on behalf of customers who engage us exclusively for our railway transportation services. In 2013, income from our railway transportation services totaled approximately RMB457.9 million.

Coal Chemical Business
Our coal chemical operations consist primarily of the production and sale of methanol. Prior to April 2012, we had two subsidiaries engaged in methanol operations: Yulin Nenghua and Shanxi Nenghua. Shanxi Nenghua ceased production in April 2012 due to a shortage in supply of raw materials. Yulin Nenghua’s methanol plant, which has a production capacity of 600,000 tonnes per annum, commenced commercial operations in August 2009. In 2011, Yulin Nenghua and Shanxi Nenghua (through its wholly owned subsidiary Tianhao Chemicals) produced a total of approximately 532,000 tonnes and sold 529,000 tonnes of methanol, generating sales income of approximately RMB1,059.3 million. In 2012, Yulin Nenghua and Shanxi Nenghua produced a total of approximately 572,000 tonnes and sold 574,000 tonnes of methanol, generating sales income of approximately RMB1,118.0 million. In 2013, Yulin Nenghua produced a total of approximately 609,000 tonnes and sold 599,000 tonnes, generating sales income of approximately RMB1,155.7 million. In addition, Ordos Neng Hua is constructing a 600,000-tonne methanol project in Ordos City in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region which will have a production capacity of 600,000 tonnes per annum, which we expect to become operational in the first half of 2014.
Electric Power Business
We own and operate seven power plants, with total installed capacity of 218 MW, which generate electric power primarily for internal use and, to a lesser extent, external sales. The six cogeneration power plants operated by Hua Ju Energy are able to generate both electric power and heat. We ceased production at the power plant operated by Shanxi Nenghua on January 1, 2012 due to high fuel costs. We are in the process of disposing this power plant together with Tianhao Chemical’s methanol assets. In 2012, we generated a total of approximately 1,155.2 million kWh of electricity and sold approximately 856.4 million kWh of electricity, generating approximately RMB323.6 million in revenue. In 2013, we generated a total of approximately 1,234.4 million kWh of electricity and sold approximately 879.1 million kWh of electricity, generating approximately RMB332.1 million in revenue. In addition, Heze Nenghua is constructing a power plant over two phases with an installed capacity of 300 MW each. We expect Phase 1 of the power plant to become operational in mid-2014.
Heat Supply Business
In 2013, we produced approximately 1.3 million steam tonnes of heat and sold approximately 50,000 steam tonnes of heat, generating sales revenue of approximately RMB11.2 million.
Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations
Our results of operations and financial condition are affected by a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, including those set forth below:
Conditions and regulations affecting the coal mining industry
Our coal mining operations in the PRC are subject to various PRC laws and regulations, including developmental, environmental and health and safety laws and regulations, and various national and local policies, which could facilitate our acquisition activities and the overall growth of our business and operations, industry consolidation could result in larger coal mining enterprises that compete against us.
Our mining operations in Australia are regulated by Australian federal and state governments with respect to environmental issues such as water quality, air quality, dust impact, noise impact, planning issues (such as approvals to expand existing mines, develop new mines or change mining methods), and health and safety issues. Future changes to, and our continuing compliance with, these regulations may have a material effect on our business and results of operations. See “Item 3. Key Information — D. Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Our Business and Industry – Our coal operations are extensively regulated by the PRC and Australian government, and government regulations may limit our activities and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.”
Demand for coal
Given the nature of our operations, the demand for coal will continue to have a significant effect on our results of operations. Global coal demand correlates strongly with the global economy and, as such, any downturn or prolonged depression of economic activity may have an adverse effect on demand for coal. Coal demand is also affected by a variety of factors beyond our control, such as the availability and prices of alternative energy sources to coal, international shipping costs and costs of conducting coal mining operations.
Acquisition and expansion
Our business expansion plans are primarily dependent on successfully acquiring and developing projects that can grow or diversify our existing operations. Our coal reserves, future production capacity and, consequently, our revenues and results of operations, will depend on the success of such projects. Our business and results of operations could be affected if we are unable to successfully integrate or operate our acquisitions or achieve anticipated additional revenue and earnings.

Exchange rate fluctuations
Assets, liabilities and the fair value of financial instruments and balances that we incur, create or acquire in the process of our international operations and which are denominated in currencies other than RMB, or in currencies other than the functional currencies of the relevant business units, may fluctuate substantially depending on changes in currency exchange rates. See “Item 3. Key Information — D. Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Our Business and Industry – Our business, results of operations and financial condition depend in part on our ability to continue acquiring or developing suitable coal reserves” and “Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures of Market Risk – Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk.”
Product mix
Our products, which include thermal coal, semi-hard coking coal, semi-soft coking coal and PCI coal, generally have different prices and gross margins. For example, our No. 1 clean coal has historically had a higher gross margin than our other products and, as such, an increased proportion of sales income generated from No. 1 clean coal would result in higher gross profits. Conversely, if the sales volume of lower gross margin coal products, such as thermal coal, increased in comparison to higher margin coal products, then we would have lower gross profits despite an increase in sales volume. In addition, the future launch of new products will also affect our product mix and, consequently, our revenues, gross margins and results of operations.
Production capacity
Our results of operations and future growth prospects are affected by our coal production capacity. Our production capacity and production volume may be affected by the macroeconomy and customer demand. Our production capacity and volume will also depend on our ability to obtain necessary capital and required approvals and permits, as well as production capacity, customer demand and general economic factors. We will continue to focus on increasing our production capacity by developing our existing projects and potential domestic and international acquisitions. Increasing our production capacity also increases costs, expenses and capital expenditures.
Coal prices
The selling prices of our coal products are influenced by price fluctuations in the PRC domestic market and the global market. In addition, potential reduction in the production in high cost coal producing regions are expected to provide support for coal price going forward. In the long run, coal prices are expected to increase as a result of growing demand for coal to fuel industrialization and urbanization and steady production increase due to higher royalties and environmental and social related costs.
Cost of sales
Our results of operations are affected by our cost of sales, which mainly comprises wages and employee benefits, purchases of coal from third parties for trading purposes, materials, land subsidence, restoration, rehabilitation and environmental costs, depreciation and amortization expenses and business tax and surcharges associated with our coal business and railway transportation business. Key factors impacting these costs include variations in production volume, the cost of power, fuel and labor, the application of advanced mining technologies, changes in railway fees and port fees, and contractual terms of our coal products.
Transportation volume and cost
We primarily use railways and highways and, to a lesser extent, domestic and international shipping lanes, to transport coal. We primarily rely on the national railway system in the PRC and railway systems operated by third parties in Australia to transport our coal. In addition, we also utilize our private railway network to transport other goods upon the request of our railway transportation customers. We also transport coal on the national railway system to ports, from which we ship coal to our customers. Railway, waterway and roadway transportation costs are charged by carriers who deliver our coal products to our customers. Our revenue and results of operations may be affected by fluctuations in the transportation volume and capacity of national and state railway systems and of our own railway assets, as well as fluctuations in the costs associated with transporting coal to our customers.
Coal resources and reserves
Coal resources and reserves data is a key element in our decision-making process. All coal reserves data are estimates, which are revised when additional information becomes available (for example, when additional coal mines commence operations or when actual coal production or extraction commences). If the amount or quality of coal mined differs from the reserve estimates, we may have to further process or wash the coal mined in order to produce coal of a saleable quality. See “Item 3. Key Information — D. Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Our Business and Industry — The coal reserve data in this annual report are only estimates, which may differ materially from actual reserve amounts.”

Year Ended December 31, 2013 Compared with Year Ended December 31, 2012
Total revenue
Our total revenue decreased RMB1,744.4 million, or 3.0%, from approximately RMB58,146.2 million in 2012 to approximately RMB56,401.8 million in 2013. Our gross sales of coal, which accounted for 96.5% of our total revenue in 2011, decreased by RMB1,755.8 million, or 3.1%, from approximately RMB56,200.6 million in 2012 to approximately RMB54,444.8 million in 2013. The decrease in gross sales of coal was primarily due to the decrease of the average selling price led by weak demand for coal in both domestic and overseas markets. In 2013, our average selling price of coal products decreased by approximately RMB80.7 per tonne, from RMB604.3 to RMB523.5 per tonne, a 13.4% decrease from 2012. Our sales volume of coal products increased 11.8% from approximately 93.0 million tonnes in 2012 to 104.0 million tonnes in 2013.
In 2013, the transportation volume of our railway assets was approximately 18.3 million tonnes, representing a slight increase of approximately 0.7 million tonnes, or 4.2%, from 2012. Our railway transportation services income (income from transported volume settled on the basis of off-mine prices and special purpose railway transportation fees borne by customers) decreased by RMB6.2 million, or 1.3%, from approximately RMB464.1 million in 2012 to approximately RMB457.9 million in 2013.
Our gross sales of methanol increased by approximately RMB37.7 million, or 3.4%, from RMB1,118.0 million in 2012 to approximately RMB1,155.7 million in 2013. The increase in gross sales of methanol was mainly attributable to an increase in sales volumes of methanol. Our gross sales of electric power increased by approximately RMB8.5 million, or 2.6%, from approximately RMB323.6 million in 2012 to approximately RMB332.1 million in 2013. Our gross sales of heat supply decreased by RMB28.7 million, or 71.9%, from approximately RMB39.9 million in 2012 to approximately RMB11.2 million in 2013, due primarily to our termination of heat supply to Jidong New Town.

Transportation costs of coal
Our coal transportation costs, including our railway transportation costs for coal products, decreased by RMB80.0 million, or 3.8%, from RMB2,104.2 million in 2012 to RMB2,024.2 million in 2013, and included transportation costs for our coal sold in the PRC of RMB444.3 million and for coal sold outside the PRC of approximately RMB1,579.9 million. Our sales volume of coal products increased by 11.0 million tonnes, which included 7.0 million tonnes of trading coal.
We use highways and, to a lesser extent, railways, domestic and international shipping lanes to transport trading coal. We are responsible for costs incurred if coal is transported via railways. The costs of highway and shipping lanes are charged by the relevant carriers to, and borne by, our customers and are not recorded as our transportation costs. As a result, while sales volume of coal increased in 2013, our transportation costs of coal decreased in 2013 due to a general decrease in railway transportation coal volume, the costs of which are borne by the Company compared with volumes transported using highways, which are borne by our customers.
Cost of sales and services provided
Our total cost of sales and services provided increased by RMB362.8 million, or 0.9%, from RMB42,149.0 million in 2012 to approximately RMB42,511.8 million in 2013, primarily due to increased sales volumes of coal. The increased sales volumes resulted in an increase of RMB1,311.5 million in purchases of coal from third parties for trading purposes and a RMB347.2 million increase in depreciation.
Cost of electric power
Our cost of electric power decreased by RMB10.3 million from approximately RMB330.8 million in 2012, to approximately RMB320.5 million in 2013, primarily due to a decrease in electric power sold by Yulin Nenghua. Yulin Nenghua sold approximately 99.8 million kWh of electric power in 2013 compared to 244.6 million kWh of electric power in 2012, the decrease of which was caused by its increased internal consumption of electricity.
Cost of methanol
Our production costs decreased from approximately RMB911.2 million in 2012 to approximately RMB850.8 million in 2013, primarily due to the decrease in the cost of coal.
Cost of heat supply
Our cost of heat supply decreased by RMB18.4 million, from approximately RMB25.1 million in 2012 to approximately RMB6.7 million in 2013, primarily due to the decrease in our sales volume of heat supply.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
Our selling, general and administrative expenses increased by RMB2,393.1 million, or 30.0%, from approximately RMB7,987.6 million in 2012 to approximately RMB10,380.7 million in 2013. This increase was primarily attributable to the exchange losses of approximately RMB1,686.0 million we recorded in 2013 as the result of the U.S. dollar denominated and RMB denominated loans held by our Australian subsidiaries and the depreciation of Australian dollars against U.S. dollars and RMB. The increase was also due to an increase of RMB1,321.2 million in provision for assets impairment loss as compared with 2012.
Share of income of associates
Our share of income from associates increased by RMB91.9 million, or 64.7%, from RMB142.0 million in 2012 to approximately RMB233.9 million in 2013, primarily due to an increase of RMB90.1 million in investment income from Huadian Zouxian as compared with 2012.
Share of loss of joint ventures
Our share of loss of joint ventures increased by RMB184.4 million, or 96.3%, from RMB191.6 million in 2012 to RMB376.0 million in 2013, primarily due to an increase in the investment loss of RMB184.4 million in the joint venture operating Middlemount Coal Mine.
Other income
Our other income decreased by RMB1,909.9 million, or 65.2%, from approximately RMB2,930.4 million in 2012 to approximately RMB1,020.6 million in 2013, primarily due to approximately RMB1,269.2 million of income generated from the acquisition of Gloucester in 2012 and a foreign exchange gain of approximately RMB714.2 million in 2012.

Table of Contents
Interest expenses
Our interest expenses increased by RMB317.1 million, from approximately RMB1,448.7 million in 2012 to approximately RMB1,765.8 million in 2013, primarily due to the offering of RMB denominated short-term notes and the non-public issuance of financial instruments in 2013.
Loss before income tax
As a result of the foregoing, we recorded loss before income taxes of approximately RMB580.3 million in 2013, as compared to the profit before income taxes of approximately RMB6,070.4 million in 2012.
Income tax gain
We recorded income tax gains of approximately RMB394.8 million in 2013, as compared to income tax expenses of approximately RMB36.2 million in 2012, primarily due to the decrease in deferred income tax resulting from a loss incurred by Yancoal Australia in 2013.
The effective income tax rate increased from 0.6% in 2012 to 68% in 2013 primarily due to loss incurred by the Company’s Australian operations, which are subject to generally higher income tax rates at a rate of 30%. The resulting income tax gain (after-tax effect of both income taxes and MRRT) of our Australian operations was RMB1,571 million and RMB1,690 million in 2012 and 2013, respectively. Excluding our subsidiaries, we were the major contributor to the income tax of the Group as a whole, with an income tax expense of RMB1,605 million and RMB1,469 million in 2012 and 2013, respectively. The resulting set-off resulted in a net income tax gain of RMB221 million in 2013 and net income tax expense of RMB34 million in 2012. As a result of the foregoing, we experienced a significant fluctuation of our effective income tax rate from 2012 to 2013, as our corresponding effective tax rate was 0.56% and 38.0% in 2012 and 2013, respectively. The remaining income tax gain in 2013 is mainly related to losses incurred by other Chinese subsidiaries.
Loss for the year
As a result, we recorded loss for the year of approximately RMB185.5 million in 2013, as compared to profit for the year of approximately RMB6,034.2 million in 2012. In particular, net profit from our trading of externally purchased coal in 2013 was approximately RMB125.8 million. The profit attributable to equity holders of the Company decreased by RMB5,288.2 million, or 87.2%, from approximately RMB6,065.6 million in 2012 to approximately RMB777.4 million in 2013.
Year Ended December 31, 2012 Compared with Year Ended December 31, 2011
Total revenue
Our total revenue in 2012 increased by RMB11,080.4 million, or 23.5%, from RMB47,065.8 million to approximately RMB58,146.2 million. Our gross sales of coal, which accounted for 96.7% of our total revenue in 2012, increased by RMB11,019.4 million, or 24.4%, to RMB56,200.6 million in 2012. This reflected an increase in coal sales volume of 29.9 million tonnes, or 46.5%, primarily due to an increase in the sales volume of externally purchased coal, an increase in the sales volume of coal in Australia and an increase in the sales volume of coal by Ordos Nenghua, partially offset by a decrease in the average selling price of our coal products by RMB108.4 per tonne, or 15.3%, from RMB709.1 per tonne in 2011 to RMB599.3 per tonne in 2012, as the result of the weak demand for coal caused by the global economic slowdown.
In 2012, the transportation volume of our railway assets was approximately 17.5 million tonnes, representing a decrease of approximately 0.6 million tonnes, or 3.2%, compared to 2011. Our railway transportation services income (income from transported volume settled on the basis of ex-mine prices and special purpose railway transportation fees borne by customers) decreased by RMB12.8 million, or 2.7%, from approximately RMB476.9 million in 2011 to approximately RMB464.1 million in 2012. Our gross sales of electric power decreased by RMB4.4 million, or 1.3%, from approximately RMB328.0 million 2011 to RMB323.6 million in 2012. This decrease was due to decreased power generation and sales of electric power in 2012, in part due to the high cost of fuel as a result of which we shut down power generation operations at Shanxi Nenghua beginning January 1, 2012. Our gross sales of methanol increased by RMB58.7 million, or 5.5%, from approximately RMB1,059.3 million in 2011 to approximately RMB1,118.0 million in 2012. This increase was primarily due to the increased production and sales volumes by Yulin Nenghua. Our gross sales of heat supply increased by RMB19.4 million, or 94.6%, from approximately RMB20.5 million in 2011 to approximately RMB39.9 million in 2012. This increase was primarily due to our provision of heat supply to more customers for a longer duration as compared with 2011.

Transportation costs of coal
Transportation costs of coal primarily consist of railway, waterway and roadway transportation costs charged by carriers that deliver our coal products to our customers. Our coal transportation costs increased by RMB855.9 million, or 68.6%, from approximately RMB1,248.3 million in 2011 to approximately RMB2,104.2 million in 2012, primarily due to the increase in the sales volume of coal. Coal transportation costs in 2012 consisted of transportation costs of approximately RMB281.8 million for coal sold in the PRC and approximately RMB1,822.4 million for coal sold outside of the PRC.
Cost of sales and services provided
Our cost of sales and railway transportation services consists of the costs of our coal business and railway transportation business, which primarily consist of wages and employee benefits, purchases of coal from third parties for trading purposes, materials, land subsidence, restoration, rehabilitation and environmental costs, depreciation and amortization expenses and business tax and surcharges. Our cost of sales and services provided increased by RMB16,162.3 million, or 62.2%, from approximately RMB25,986.7 million in 2011 to approximately RMB42,149.0 million in 2012, primarily due to an increase of approximately RMB11,974.0 million in the cost of traded coal as a result of an increase in the volumes of coal we purchased from third parties for trading purposes. In addition, cost of sales of traded coal is generally higher than cost of sales of our in-house coal products because purchase prices from other coal mining companies and trading companies are higher than the production cost of our in-house coal products. The increase in our cost of sales and services provided was also caused by an increase of approximately RMB1,435.9 million in wages and employee benefits as a result of an increase in employee headcount.
Cost of electric power
Our cost of electric power operations primarily consists of raw material and labor costs incurred to generate electric power. Our cost of electric power decreased by RMB31.7 million, or 8.7%, from approximately RMB362.5 million in 2011 to approximately RMB330.8 million in 2012, primarily due to decreased power generation at the power plants operated by Hua Ju Energy and Yulin Nenghua, as well as the closure of Shanxi Nenghua’s power plant due to high fuel costs.
Cost of methanol
Our cost of methanol primarily consists of raw materials, labor costs, depreciation and other manufacturing overhead. Our cost of methanol decreased by RMB19.0 million, or 2.0%, from approximately RMB930.2 million in 2011 to approximately RMB911.2 million in 2012 primarily because the methanol project at Shanxi Nenghua ceased production due to a shortage of raw materials in April 2012.
Cost of heat supply
Our cost of heat supply primarily consists of raw materials and labor in our heat supply business. Our cost of heat supply increased by RMB11.3 million, or 81.9%, from approximately RMB13.8 million in 2011 to approximately RMB25.1 million in 2012, primarily due to an increase of 60,000 steam tonne in heat supply sold.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
Our selling, general and administrative expenses increased by RMB1,417.4 million, or 21.6%, from approximately RMB6,570.2 million in 2011 to approximately RMB7,987.6 million 2012, primarily due to increases in impairment losses on intangible assets, goodwill and inventories of approximately RMB575.7 million, and RMB214.1 million in distribution charges.
Share of income of associates
Our share of income from associates increased by RMB73.0 million, or 106.0%, from approximately RMB68.9 million in 2011 to RMB142.0 million in 2012, due to an increase in our income of RMB82.6 million from Huadian Zouxian Power Generation Company Limited (“Huadian Zouxian”).
Other income
Our other income increased significantly by RMB1,854.7 million, or 172.4%, from approximately RMB1,075.8 million in 2011 to approximately RMB2,930.4 million in 2012. This increase was primarily due to a gain in bargain purchase in the sum of RMB1,269.3 million arising from our acquisition of Gloucester, resulting from a decrease in the market capitalization and market price of the consideration shares, as well as an increase of RMB364.6 million in bank deposit interest and exchange gains of RMB195.6 million from Yancoal Australia.

Table of Contents
Interest expenses
Our interest expenses increased by RMB609.4 million, or 72.6%, from approximately RMB839.3 million in 2011 to RMB1,448.7 million in 2012, mainly due to the issuance of corporate bonds in the amount of US$1.0 billion and an increase in bank loans in 2012.
Profit before income tax
As a result of the foregoing, our profit before income taxes decreased by approximately RMB6,189.18 million, or 50.5%, from approximately RMB12,259.5 million in 2011 to RMB6,070.4 million in 2012.
Income tax expenses
Our income tax decreased by RMB3,430.7 million, or 99.0%, from approximately RMB3,466.9 million in 2011 to approximately RMB36.2 million in 2012, primarily due to a decrease in current income tax expenses of RMB1,725.2 million and a decrease in the income tax expenses of our Australian subsidiaries of RMB1,085.2 million, which was primarily due to an increase in its deferred tax assets related to the implementation of MRRT.
The effective income tax rate decreased from 28% in 2011 to 0.6% in 2012 primarily due to the Australia MRRT imposed in 2012, which resulted in an one-off income tax benefit in 2012. The Australia MRRT is a minerals tax that applies to our Australian operations at a rate of 22.5%. The MRRT imposed in 2012 amounted to approximately RMB1,085 million. The effective income tax rate in 2012 without taking into the account of the effect of MRRT would have been 18.5%. The remaining effect on the reduction of effective interest rate from 2011 to 2012 is mainly related to non-taxable income such as gain on bargin purchase of Gloucester amounted to RMB 388 million.
Profit for the year
As a result, our profit for the year decreased by RMB2,758.4 million, or 31.4%, from approximately RMB8,792.6 million in 2011 to approximately RMB6,034.2 million in 2012. The profit attributable to equity holders of the Company decreased by RMB2.679.5 million, or 30.6%, from RMB8,745.1 million in 2011 to approximately RMB6,065.6 million in 2012. In particular, net profit from our trading of externally purchased coal in 2012 was approximately RMB28.0 million, which represented approximately 0.45% of our profit for the year.

Coal mining revenue
Our revenue from coal mining segment (before unallocated corporate income and eliminations) decreased by RMB1,518.8 million, from approximately RMB56,419.8 million in 2012 to approximately RMB54,901.0 million in 2013, primarily due to general market volatility and weakened overall demand for coal in domestic and overseas markets, which decreased average selling prices of coal from RMB604.3 per tonne in 2012 to RMB523.5 per tonne in 2013. In addition, we recorded a loss on share of associates of RMB330.2 million in our mining business in 2013 as compared to a profit of RMB33.6 million in 2012, primarily due to the decrease in the selling prices of coal that resulted in loss to our associates. Furthermore, we recognized a loss on our share of joint ventures in mining businesses, which increased from RMB191.6 million in 2012 to RMB376.0 million in 2013, primarily due losses incurred in our joint venture operating the Middlemount Coal Mine, which resulted from decreased coal prices. The decrease was partially offset by increased sales volume of coal products, which increased from approximately 93.0 million tonnes in 2012 to approximately 104.0 million tonnes in 2013.
In 2013, we re-categorized our investment of RMB1.4 billion in Shaanxi Future Energy Chemical Corp. Ltd. (“Shaanxi Future”) from the methanol, electricity and heat supply business segment to the coal mining business segment for accounting and operational reasons as we expected Shaanxi Future to commence coal mining operations in 2014. This resulted in an increase of RMB1,369.8 million in the interests in associates in coal mining business segment and a corresponding decrease of RMB1,249.1 million in the interests in associates in the methanol, electricity and heat supply business segment.
In 2013, we recorded an impairment loss on intangible assets of RMB2,052.2 million, compared with RMB417.2 million in 2012, primarily due to a decrease in the valuation of our mining rights for certain of our Australian coal mines, primarily resulting from decreased coal prices.
Railway transportation
Our revenue from railway transportation business segment (before unallocated corporate income and eliminations) remained relatively stable at RMB501.2 million in 2013 as compared to RMB496.6 million in 2012.
The segment liabilities for the railway transportation business segment increased by RMB104.2 million, from RMB66.6 million in 2012 to approximately RMB170.9 million in 2013, primarily due to an increase in receivables due from companies within our Group in 2013 as a result of their late payments.
Methanol, electricity and heat supply business
Our revenue from methanol, electricity and heat supply business segment (before unallocated corporate income and eliminations) increased by RMB26.2 million, from RMB1,765.9 million in 2012 to RMB1,792.1 million in 2013. Our profits from associates in the methanol, electricity and heat supply business segment increased by RMB455.7 million, from RMB108.4 million in 2012 to RMB564.1 million in 2013, as the result of decreased operating costs due decreased raw materials prices, especially coal prices due to market factors.
Unallocated and eliminations
Our unallocated corporate income decreased by RMB1,915.7 million, from RMB1,987.1 million in 2012 to RMB71.4 million, primarily reflecting the recognition in 2012 of a one-off premium of approximately RMB1,269.3 million recorded for the acquisition of Gloucester Coal and net foreign exchange income of RMB714.2 million, which we did not recognize in 2013.
Our unallocated corporate expenses decreased by RMB255.9 million, from RMB2,160.0 million in 2012 to RMB1,504.1 million in 2013, reflecting the successful implementation of cost-saving measures across the Group, and primarily include decreases of (i) RMB231.6 million in advertising expenses, (ii) RMB223.2 million in wages and employee benefits, (iii) RMB35.5 million in legal and professional fees, (iv) RMB31.0 million in telecommunication expenses and (v) RMB30.5 million in repairs and maintenance expenses. This decrease was partially offset by an increase of RMB62.0 million in other tax payables as a result of tax increases relating to land use rights.
B. | Liquidity and Capital Resources |
Our principal sources of liquidity in 2013 were proceeds from bank borrowings, offering of RMB denominated short term notes and non-public issuance of financing instruments and the cash generated from our operating activities. In 2013, we primarily utilized cash to pay our operating expenses, purchase property, machinery and equipment, finance acquisitions and pay dividends to shareholders.

Table of Contents
Our principal sources of liquidity in 2012 were proceeds from bank borrowings, the RMB-denominated corporate bonds we issued in 2012 (the “RMB Bond Offering”) and the US$-denominated corporate bonds we issued in 2012 (the “US$ Bond Offering”) and the cash generated from our operating activities. Our primary sources of cash in 2011 were cash flows from operating activities and bank borrowings. We used cash primarily to finance working capital, fund payments of interest and principal due on our indebtedness, finance acquisitions and fund capital expenditures and the growth and expansion of our facilities and operations.
Taking into account our cash and cash equivalents on hand, our available credit facilities, cash generated from our future operations and the proceeds from the offering of RMB denominated short term notes and non-public issuance of financing instruments, we believe we have sufficient working capital to meet our financial requirements for at least the next 12 months from the date of this annual report. As of December 31, 2013, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately RMB10,922.6 million.
We conduct our operations directly and through our operating subsidiaries, some of which we do not wholly own, are joint ventures or are public companies. Therefore, we may not be able in all circumstances to allocate our free cash flow as we would like among our subsidiaries. In addition, PRC law restricts the ability of our subsidiaries to transfer funds to us in the form of cash dividends, loans or advances. PRC regulations currently permit payment of dividends by PRC companies only out of accumulated profits as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. In addition, under current PRC laws, regulations and accounting standards, each subsidiary is required to allocate at least 10% of its after-tax profit based on PRC accounting standards to its statutory common reserve fund each year until the cumulative amount of these reserves reaches 50% of its registered capital. These reserves are not distributable as cash dividends. As of December 31, 2013, the required deductions attributable to these statutory common reserve funds amounted to approximately RMB5,511.3 million.
Furthermore, under SAFE regulations, Renminbi is not convertible into foreign currencies for capital account items, such as loans, repatriation of investments and investments outside of China, unless the prior SAFE approval is obtained and prior registration with the SAFE is made. These restrictions have not historically had, and are not expected in the future to have, a material impact on our ability to meet our financial requirements.

Before accepting any new customer, we assess the potential customer’s credit quality and define credit limits by customer. Limits attributed to customers are reviewed once a year. In 2011, 2012 and 2013, we did not have any significant trade receivables that were past due but not yet impaired as of the balance sheet dates above. We do not hold any collateral over these balances. The average ages of these receivables were 86 days, 96 days and 49 days for 2011, 2012 and 2013, respectively. Our management closely monitors the credit quality of accounts receivables and considers the balances that are neither past due nor impaired to be of good credit quality.
We have provided fully for all accounts receivables over three years because our experience is such that receivables that are past due beyond three years are generally not recoverable. Receivables aged over four years are considered irrecoverable by management and are written off. We wrote off our receivables of approximately RMB3.3 million in 2012. We did not write off any of our receivables in 2011 and 2013. The following table sets forth an analysis of our impairment losses on bills and accounts receivables:

Our allowance for doubtful debts in 2011, 2012 and 2013 were approximately RMB4.1 million, RMB2.5 million and RMB8.3 million, respectively, for individually impaired trade receivables, which were primarily receivables from corporate customers in the PRC and considered irrecoverable by management after considering the credit quality of those individual customers, the ongoing relationship with us and the aging of these receivables. The recognized impairment represents the difference between the carrying amount of these trade receivables and the present value of the amounts. We do not hold any collateral over these balances.

Our prepayments and other receivables increased from approximately RMB3,624.8 million as of December 31, 2011 to RMB4,197.0 million as of December 31, 2012, primarily due to tax expenses of approximately RMB178 million payable by our subsidiaries and a resettlement compensation of RMB59 million payable by the previous owner of Wenyu Coal Mine. Our prepayments and other receivables increased from approximately RMB4,197.0 million as of December 31, 2012 to RMB5,259.6 million as of December 31, 2013, primarily due to the increase of RMB848.6 million in advances to trade coal suppliers paid by our subsidiary Shandong Yanmei Rizhao Port Coal Storage and Blending Co., Ltd., which was consolidated into our financial statements in 2013.
As of December 31, 2011, 2012 and 2013, we had impairment losses of approximately RMB17.2 million, RMB25.3 million and RMB18.3 million, respectively, on our prepayments and other receivables. We did not write off any impairment losses on our prepayments and other receivables in 2011 and 2012. We wrote off prepayments and other receivables of approximately RMB481,000 in 2013.
We have provided fully for all receivables over three years because our experience is such that receivables that are past due beyond three years are generally not recoverable. We set aside full provisions for receivables that are past due beyond three years. Receivables are written off if aged over four years and considered irrecoverable by management after considering the credit quality of the individual party and the nature of the amount overdue.

Our other payables and accrued expenses increased from approximately RMB7,344.8 million as of December 31, 2011 to RMB9,013.8 million as of December 31, 2012, primarily due to an resources compensation disbursement of RMB443 million payable to Yankuang Group and a deferred income liability of RMB298 million as the result of the merger with Gloucester. Our other payables and accrued expenses decreased from approximately RMB9,013.8 million as of December 31, 2012 to RMB8,385.1 million as of December 31, 2013, primarily due to our settlements with suppliers for purchases of property, plant and equipment and construction materials before December 31, 2013.
Working Capital and Liabilities
We have historically maintained sufficient working capital for our operations. Our principal source of cash in 2013 was cash generated from operating activities, offering of RMB denominated short term notes and non-public issuance of financing instruments and bank borrowings.
As of December 31, 2013, we recorded net current assets of approximately RMB2,708.4 million. Our current assets increased by RMB1,690.9 million, from RMB29,833.5 million as of December 31, 2012 to RMB31,524.4 million as of December 31, 2013, primarily as a result of an increase in bills and accounts receivable of approximately RMB1,559.9 million, an increase in term deposits of approximately RMB1,254.2 million and an increase in prepayments and other receivables of approximately RMB1,062.6 million. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in bank balances and cash of approximately RMB1,794.8 million. Our current liabilities increased by RMB193.3 million, from approximately RMB28,622.7 million as of December 31, 2012 to RMB28,816.0 million as of December 31, 2013, primarily due to an increase in borrowings due within one year of approximately RMB3,562.5 million and a contingent value rights share liabilities of approximately RMB1.408.7 million, which was partially offset by a decrease in bills and accounts payable of approximately RMB4,095.1 million.
As of December 31, 2012 and 2013, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately RMB12,717.4 million and RMB10,922.6 million, respectively. Our cash and cash equivalents primarily consist of cash on hand and demand deposits with original maturities of three months or less that are placed with banks and other financial institutions.
As of December 31, 2012 and 2013, we had outstanding bank borrowings of approximately RMB40,996.4 million and RMB55,375.1 million, respectively. The following table sets forth the maturity profile of our bank borrowings as of the dates indicated:

As of December 31, 2013, the interest rates relating to our bank borrowings ranged from 1.00% to 7.18% per annum. The interest rates for these bank borrowings are variable rates that are subject to adjustment based on the interest rate set by the PBOC or LIBOR. As of December 31, 2013, all of our bank loans carry variable interest rates. As of the date of this annual report, our bank borrowings were denominated in Renminbi, U.S. dollars, Australian dollars and Euro. As of December 31, 2013, our total bank loans denominated in Renminbi amounted to approximately RMB20.1 billion, our total bank loans denominated in U.S. dollars amounted to approximately US$5.6 billion, our total bank loans denominated in Australian dollars amounted to approximately A$49.3 million and our total bank loans denominated in Euro amounted to approximately €0.1 billion. See Note 35 of the consolidated financial statements for more information on our borrowings. The interest expenses and exchange rate fluctuations associated with our bank borrowings may impair our future profitability.
We have, and in the future may continue to have, substantial debt. As of December 31, 2013, our long-term debt to equity ratio was 100.3%. The interest expenses associated with these debts may impair our future profitability. We may issue additional long term debts to finance short term cash flow requirements as necessary.
Capital Expenditures
Our principal capital expenditures, incurred for the purchase and construction of property, plant and equipment, increased by RMB2,520.6 million, or 38.1%, from approximately RMB6,623.6 million in 2012 to approximately RMB8,129.2 million in 2013. The increase was primarily due to an increased in the capital expenditure of the Company, Ordos Neng Hua and Haosheng Company of approximately RMB794.4 million, RMB1,092.3 million and RMB765.5 million, respectively, which was partially offset by a decrease in the capital expenditure of Yancoal Australia of approximately RMB818.3 million.

C. | Research and Development, Patents and Licenses, Etc. |
One of our core strategies is to maintain our competitiveness and increase the efficiency of our mining operations through technology and innovation. In line with our development strategy with a focus on technology innovation, we have established a multilayer system for integrating new technology into our operations consisting of various entities, including a technology committee, a professional committee, a technology center, as well as relationships with external institutions or organizations with specialized technology development capacities. We have accumulated extensive experience and expertise in coal mining and coal processing procedures, particularly with respect to the underground raw coal mining technology. For example, our independently developed longwall top caving mining method has been adopted by various international coal mining enterprises such as DBT and has been awarded the State Scientific and Technological Progress Award (Second Class) by the National Office for Science and Technology Awards of the PRC in 2009. In 2013, we completed 70 technology improvement projects, among which, 22 projects have reached an international advanced level. In addition, we obtained 71 patents and received 18 technological awards in 2013, which have enhanced our coal mining and related business operations. Our expenditures for research and development were RMB119.2 million, RMB301.6 million and RMB277.2 million in 2011, 2012 and 2013, respectively, accounting for 0.2%, 0.5% and 0.5%, respectively, of our total sales income for the same periods.
Our mining technology research and development efforts have contributed to increases in our production. Our predecessor first adopted the longwall top caving mining method in 1992. Since then, we have focused on modifying and updating this method, taking into account the distinct geological conditions of our mining operations. Due to our research and development efforts, we have:
• | increased our production efficiency by utilizing improved mining extraction equipment; |
• | extended the length of certain longwall coal mine faces to approximately 300 meters, which reduced our tunneling, support equipment and related costs; |
• | reduced the number of coal pillars required to support mining areas, thereby enhancing our recovery; |
• | patented our advanced technology for longwall top caving mining in the PRC, Australia and South Africa. We believe the use of our longwall caving extraction technology reduces the per-tonne production cost of our operations and improves the production efficiency; |
• | conducted research projects that contributed to the development and export of the technology for advanced two-pillar hydraulic roof supports for the top coal caving process; Bucyrus International, Inc., the largest coal mining equipment supplier worldwide, signed a technology license agreement to manufacture and use the longwall top caving coal mining equipment in Australia; |
• | cooperated with Peabody to trial and commercialize longwall top caving coal mining equipment; and |
• | implemented various innovative projects to improve equipment installation, safety, energy conservation and environmental protection measures in our coal mining operations. |
We intend to focus our future research and development efforts on improving our longwall caving extraction technology, fully mechanized caving operations and related equipment and mining methods for medium and thick coal seams.

D. | Trend Information |
Outlook for the Coal Market
The global economic recovery is expected to be modest in 2014. China will continue to restructure its economy and transform its economic growth mode. The international energy consumption structure is expected to change. We expect the demand and supply of coal in both the international and domestic coal markets to be relatively balanced. As a result, we expect the coal price will fluctuate slightly. We intend to sell approximately 105 million tonnes of coal in 2014.
Outlook for the PRC Methanol Market
In 2014, we expect that supply will continue to exceed demand in the domestic methanol market. The demand for methanol remains weak due to governmental control policies with respect to environmental protection and elimination of backward production capacity of certain high energy-consumption industries as well as the excess capacity in methanol industry.
E. | Off-balance Sheet Arrangements |
As of December 31, 2013, other than the capital expenditure commitments and contractual obligations disclosed in this annual report, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Secured Bank Borrowings
As of December 31, 2013, we had secured bank loans outstanding of approximately RMB19,150.3 million (approximately US$3,163.5 million), which primarily consisted of secured bank borrowings obtained for financing the acquisition of Felix in 2009. The borrowings are guaranteed by the Company and counter-guaranteed by our Controlling Shareholder. The borrowings are secured by a portion of our term deposits. As of December 31, 2013, we had term deposits of approximately RMB104,948 million that secured bank borrowings.
We have obtained two amendments to the loan agreements from Bank of China in November 2013 to amend certain debt covenant requirements prior to December 31, 2013. We will continue to monitor our indebtedness, working capital and liquidity requirements. We believe we will be able to comply with the debt covenant requirements or seek the necessary waivers or amendments if we believe we are unable to comply with such debt covenants. Therefore, we do not expect this to materially and adversely affect our liquidity.

Table of Contents
The debt covenants only apply to our subsidiary, Yancoal Australia, and hence the actual covenant ratios/amounts disclosed above cannot be reconciled to the IFRS amounts presented in our financial statements.
We would also like to inform you that subsequently, we obtained two additional amendments from Bank of China in June 2014 to further defer the testing of interest coverage ratio to 12 months ending June 30, 2015, which also reduced the interest cover ratio from not less than 1.5 to not less than 1.15, which we will disclose in the Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2014.
Borrowings of RMB5,825.8 million (US$962.4 million) carried interest at three-month LIBOR plus a margin of 0.75% (approximately 0.99%) and borrowings of RMB303.4 million (US$50.1 million) carried interest at three-month LIBOR plus a margin of 0.8% (approximately 1.04%). The borrowings of approximately RMB11,101.2 million (approximately US$1,833.8 million) carried interest at three-month LIBOR plus 2.8% (approximately 3.04%). Other borrowings incurred in connection with our acquisition of Gloucester, amounting to approximately RMB90.9 million, (approximately US$15.0 million) carried interest at 5.68%. We have obtained waiver from the bank in Australia to waive certain debt conventant requirements prior to December 31, 2013. For more information on our secured borrowings, please see Note 35 to the consolidated financial statements.

Critical Accounting Policies
We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of items in the financial statements that cannot be measured accurately. These judgments, estimates and assumptions are based on the historical experience of our management as well as other relevant factors. Actual results may differ from these estimates. We review the foregoing judgments, estimates and assumptions regularly on a going concern basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
The following are the critical estimates that we have made in the process of applying the accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in financial statements.
18
Table of Contents
Depreciation
The cost of mining structures is depreciated using the units of production method based on the estimated production volume for which the structure was designed. Management exercises its judgment in estimating the useful lives of the depreciable assets and the production volume of each mine. The estimated coal production volume of each mine is updated on a regular basis and takes into account recent production and technical information of each mine. These changes are considered changes in estimates for accounting purposes and are reflected on a prospective basis in related depreciation rates. Estimates of the production volumes are inherently imprecise and represent only approximate amounts because of the subjective judgments involved in developing such information.
Amortization of assets
Mining reserves, mining resources and rail access rights are amortized on a straight-line basis or unit of production basis over the shorter of their useful lives and the contractual period. The expensing of overburden removal costs is based on saleable coal production over the estimated economically recoverable reserves. The useful lives are estimated on the basis of the total proven and probable reserves of a coal mine. Proven and probable coal reserve estimates are updated on a regular basis and take into account each mine’s recent production and technical information.
Provision for land subsidence, restoration, rehabilitation and environmental costs
The provision for land subsidence, restoration, rehabilitation and environmental costs is reviewed regularly to verify that it properly reflects the remaining obligation arising from the current and past mining activities. Provisions for land subsidence, restoration, rehabilitation and environmental costs are determined by our management based on past experience, its estimate of current and future costs and predictions for government policies.
Impairment of goodwill
Determining whether goodwill is impaired requires an estimation of the value in use of the cash-generating units to which goodwill has been allocated. The determination of value in use requires us to estimate the future cash flows expected to arise from the cash generating unit and a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value. As of December 31, 2013, the carrying amount of goodwill was approximately RMB2,460.6 million. During the year ended December 31, 2013, no impairment loss on goodwill was recognized by the Group. Cash flow projections during the budget period for each of the above units are based on the budgeted revenue and expected gross margins during the budget period and the raw materials price inflation during the budget period. Expected cash inflows/outflows have been determined based on past performance and management’s market development expectations.
Estimated impairment of property, plant and equipment
When there are indications of impairment, we take into consideration the estimate of future cash flows. The amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows. When actual future cash flows are less than expected, a material impairment loss may arise. In estimating future cash flows, management takes into account recent production and technical advancements. As price and cost levels change from year to year, the estimate of future cash flows also changes. Notwithstanding that management has considered all the available information in making their impairment assessment, inherent uncertainty exists as to the conditions of mines and the environment, and actual write-offs may be higher than the estimated amounts. As of December 31, 2013, the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment was approximately RMB41,896.5 million. During the year ended December 31, 2013, no property, plant and equipment was written off as expenses. We did not recognize any impairment loss on property, plant and equipment during the year ended December 31, 2013.
Most of the coal sales by Premier and Wesfarmers Char are governed by a contract signed with an independent power station. The remaining coal sales are to independent third parties which are sold at market prices. The contract with the power station was a required condition in order for the government to grant the mining rights to Premier and Wesfarmers Char. The sales price under the contract is below market price and Premier and Wesfarmers Char are unable to negotiate to revise the terms of the existing contract, including the sale price of coal. Given the current market price of coal and rising costs, the Company also expected that the power station may purchase more coal from Premier and Wesfarmers Char, which will drive down the Company’s overall average sales prices. In 2012, a combined assessment of Premier and Wesfarmers Char, being a cash-generating unit, was performed, and hence in 2012, the Company recorded impairment on intangible assets (mining reserves and mining resources) of RMB417,214,000, property, plant and equipment (mining structures) of RMB226,925,000 and goodwill of RMB17,625,000 as selling, general and administrative expenses in its statement of comprehensive income as set out in Note 9 to the financial statements. The Company used the value-in-use method to assess the impairment and the key assumptions included the future market price of the coal, sales volume, and mining costs. The changes in these key assumptions that were applied in the impairment analysis were a decrease of the average coal price from AUD76 per tonne to AUD24 per tonne, a decrease in total sales volume from 141 million tonne to 58 million tonne, an increase in average nominal operating cost from AUD48 per tonne to AUD62 per tonne and an increase in capital expenditure from AUD460 million to AUD584 million. During the year, no provision for impairment losses were made for Premier and Wesfarmers Char by the Group.

Estimated impairment of mining reserves
When there are indications of impairment, we take into consideration the estimate of future cash flows. The amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows. When actual future cash flows are less than expected, a material impairment loss may arise. In estimating future cash flows, management takes into account recent production and technical advancements. As price and cost levels change from year to year, the estimate of future cash flows also changes. Notwithstanding that management has considered all the available information in making their impairment assessment, inherent uncertainty exists as to the conditions of mines and the environment, and actual write-offs may be higher than the estimated amounts.
The recoverable amount of cash generating units is assessed by management at the operating segment level. Business performance is reviewed by management on a mine by mine basis and each mine is considered to be a separate cash generating unit. The recoverable amount of each cash generating unit at December 31, 2013 was determined using the value in use method.
Value in use has been determined using a discounted cash flow model and key assumptions include coal prices, foreign exchange rates, production and capital costs, discount rate and coal reserves and resources. In determining the value assigned to each key assumption, management has used external sources of information and utilized the expertise of external and/or internal consultants and experts to validate entity specific assumptions such as coal reserves and resources.
Based on the impairment review, the recoverable amounts of coal reserves of Moolarben and Stratford & Duralie, both of which are coal mines of Yancoal Australia, were determined to be less than the carrying amounts and hence resulting an impairment loss of RMB2,052,238,000, predominantly due to forecasted global economic conditions and coal sales prices. The cash flow forecast used assumed an average long term real coal prices of US$79 – US$158 per tonne, AUD/US$ exchange rate declining from year end spot rate of AUD0.8948 to AUD0.80 over the next five years and a pre-tax discount rate of 15.7%. Production and capital costs were based on the estimate of forecasted geological conditions, stage of existing plant and equipment and future production levels. The recoverable amount is also dependent on the life of mines which is based on the annual coal production forecast.
In the process of applying our accounting policies, management has made the following accounting judgments:
Acquisitions
During the year, we acquired several subsidiaries or business as set out in Notes 43 to the consolidated financial statements included in this annual report. We determined whether acquisitions were to be accounted for as an acquisition of business or an acquisition of assets based on factors including (i) whether the acquiree has relevant input, process or output and (ii) whether the acquiree has planned principal activities or is pursuing a plan to produce output and has access to a customer base.
In addition, management also made judgments in determining whether we would register the transfer of certain operating licenses immediately upon the payment of consideration.
Recent Changes in Accounting Pronouncements
In the current year, we have applied, for the first time, a number of new standards and interpretations, amended and revised standards and interpretations (“new IFRSs”) issued by the IASB and the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (the “IFRIC”) of the IASB which are effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2012:
IFRSs (Amendments) | Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2009-2011 Cycle | |
IFRS 7 (Amendments) | Disclosures – Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities | |
IFRS 10 | Consolidated Financial Statements | |
IFRS 11 | Joint Arrangements | |
IFRS 12 | Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities | |
IFRS 10, IFRS 11 and IFRS 12 (Amendments) | Consolidated Financial Statements, Joint Arrangements and Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities: Transition Guidance | |
IFRS 13 | Fair Value Measurement | |
IAS 1 (Amendments) | Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income | |
IAS 19 (Revised) | Employee Benefits | |
IAS 28 (Revised) | Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures | |
IFRIC 20 | Stripping Costs in the Production Phase of a Surface Mine |
Except as described above, the accounting policies adopted for the current year are consistent with those adopted for the Group’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012.
20
Table of Contents
Except as described below, the application of the above new or revised IFRSs for the current year had no material impact on the amounts reported and/or disclosures set out in the consolidated financial statements for the year.
• | IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements |
IFRS 11 introduces new accounting requirements for joint arrangements, replacing IAS 31-Interests in Joint Ventures. The option to apply the proportional consolidation method when accounting for jointly controlled entities is removed. Additionally, IFRS 11 eliminates jointly controlled assets to now only differentiate between joint operations and joint ventures. A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control have rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities. A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control have rights to the net assets.
After the review and assessment made by the directors of the Company, the directors concluded that the Group’s investment which was classified as jointly controlled entities under IAS 31 should be classified as joint ventures under IFRS 11 and will continue to apply the equity method.
• | IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement |
IFRS 13 applies when another IFRS requires or permits fair value measurements or disclosures about fair value measurements (and measurements, such as fair value less costs to sell, based on fair value or disclosures about those measurements), except for certain exemptions. IFRS 13 requires the disclosures of fair values through a “fair value hierarchy”. The hierarchy categorizes the inputs used in valuation techniques into three levels. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to (unadjusted) quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. If the inputs used to measure fair value are categorized into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the level of the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement.
For disclosure relating the fair value, please refer to note 42.
• | IAS 1 (Amendments) Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income |
The amendments to IAS 1 require additional disclosures to be made in the other comprehensive section such that items of other comprehensive income are grouped into two categories: (a) items that will not be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss; and (b) items that may be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss when specific conditions are met. Income tax on items of other comprehensive income is required to be allocated on the same basis — the amendments do not change the existing option to present items of other comprehensive income either before tax or net of tax. The amendments have been applied retrospectively, and hence the presentation of items of other comprehensive income has been modified to reflect the changes.
• | IFRIC 20 Stripping Costs in the Production Phase of a Surface Mine |
IFRIC 20 Stripping Costs in the Production Phase of a Surface Mine applies to waste removal costs incurred during the production phase of a surface mine (“production stripping costs”). Under the Interpretation, the costs from this waste removal activity (“stripping”) which provide improved access to ore are recognized as a non-current asset (“stripping activity asset”) when certain criteria are met, whereas the costs of stripping activities where the benefit is realised in the form of inventory produced are accounted for in accordance with IAS 2 Inventories. The stripping activity asset is accounted for as an addition to, or as an enhancement of, an existing asset and classified as tangible or intangible according to the nature of the existing asset of which it forms part. When the costs of the stripping activity asset and the inventory produced are not separately identifiable, production stripping costs are allocated between the inventory produced and the stripping activity asset by using an allocation basis that is based on a relevant production measure.
Prior to the effective of IFRIC 20, stripping costs of the Group and its joint ventures which comprises the accumulation of expenses incurred to enable access to the coal seams, and includes direct removal costs, machinery and plant running costs are deferred then charged to the consolidated income statement in subsequent periods on the basis of run-of-mine (“ROM”) coal tonnes mined. This is calculated by multiplying the ROM coal tonnes mined during the year by the weighted average cost to remove a bank cubic metre (“BCM”) of waste by the stripping ratio (ratio of waste removed in BCMs to ROM coal tonnes mined). The stripping ratio of the Company’s Australian subsidiaries is based on the JORC reserves of each mine.
The requirements in IFRIC 20 differs from the Group and its joint ventures’ previous policies in that only waste stripping costs which provide improved access to ore can be capitalized when certain criteria are met, and the capitalization and amortization of waste stripping costs is undertaken at the level of individual deposits or components thereof rather than on a whole-for-mine basis. In addition, specific transitional rules are provided to deal with any opening deferred stripping balances recognised under the previous accounting policies.

Table of Contents
As a result of the adoption of the IFRIC 20, any previously recognised asset that resulted from stripping activity undertaken during the production phase (predecessor stripping asset) is reclassified as part of the existing asset to which the stripping activity related, to the extent that there remains an identifiable component of the orebody with which the predecessor stripping asset can be associated. Such balances are then amortised over the remaining expected useful life of the identified component of the orebody to which each predecessor stripping asset balance relates. If there is no identifiable component of the orebody to which the predecessor asset relates, it has been written off through opening retained earnings at the beginning of the earliest period presented. IFRIC 20 has been applied by Group and its joint ventures prospectively to production stripping costs incurred on or after the beginning of the earliest period presented.

Table of Contents
Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2010-2012 Cycle
The Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2010-2012 Cycle include a number of amendments to various IFRSs, which are summarised below.
The amendments to IFRS 2 (i) change the definitions of ‘vesting condition’ and ‘market condition’; and (ii) add definitions for ‘performance condition’ and ‘service condition’ which were previously included within the definition of ‘vesting condition’. The amendments to IFRS 2 are effective for share-based payment transactions for which the grant date is on or after July 1, 2014.
The amendments to IFRS 3 clarify that contingent consideration that is classified as an asset or a liability should be measured at fair value at each reporting date, irrespective of whether the contingent consideration is a financial instrument within the scope of IFRS 9 or IAS 39 or a non-financial asset or liability. Changes in fair value (other than measurement period adjustments) should be recognised in profit and loss. The amendments to IFRS 3 are effective for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after July 1, 2014.
The amendments to IFRS 8 (i) require an entity to disclose the judgements made by management in applying the aggregation criteria to operating segments, including a description of the operating segments aggregated and the economic indicators assessed in determining whether the operating segments have ‘similar economic characteristics’; and (ii) clarify that a reconciliation of the total of the reportable segments’ assets to the entity’s assets should only be provided if the segment assets are regularly provided to the chief operating decision-maker.
The amendments to the basis for conclusions of IFRS 13 clarify that the issue of IFRS 13 and consequential amendments to IAS 39 and IFRS 9 did not remove the ability to measure short-term receivables and payables with no stated interest rate at their invoice amounts without discounting, if the effect of discounting is immaterial.
The amendments to IAS 16 and IAS 38 remove perceived inconsistencies in the accounting for accumulated depreciation/amortisation when an item of property, plant and equipment or an intangible asset is revalued. The amended standards clarify that the gross carrying amount is adjusted in a manner consistent with the revaluation of the carrying amount of the asset and that accumulated depreciation/amortisation is the difference between the gross carrying amount and the carrying amount after taking into account accumulated impairment losses.
The amendments to IAS 24 clarify that a management entity providing key management personnel services to a reporting entity is a related party of the reporting entity. Consequently, the reporting entity should disclose as related party transactions the amounts incurred for the service paid or payable to the management entity for the provision of key management personnel services. However, disclosure of the components of such compensation is not required.
The directors do not anticipate that the application of the amendments included in the Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2010-2012 Cycle will have a material effect on the Group’s consolidated financial statements.
Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2011-2013 Cycle
The Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2011-2013 Cycle include a number of amendments to various IFRSs, which are summarised below.
The amendments to IFRS 3 clarify that the standard does not apply to the accounting for the formation of all types of joint arrangement in the financial statements of the joint arrangement itself.
The amendments to IFRS 13 clarify that the scope of the portfolio exception for measuring the fair value of a group of financial assets and financial liabilities on a net basis includes all contracts that are within the scope of, and accounted for in accordance with, IAS 39 or IFRS 9, even if those contracts do not meet the definitions of financial assets or financial liabilities within IAS 32. The amendments to IAS 40 clarify that IAS 40 and IFRS 3 are not mutually exclusive and application of both standards may be required. Consequently, an entity acquiring investment property must determine whether:
(a) | the property meets the definition of investment property in terms of IAS 40; and |
(b) | the transaction meets the definition of a business combination under IFRS 3. |
The directors do not anticipate that the application of the amendments included in the Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2011-2013 Cycle will have a material effect on the Group’s consolidated financial statements.

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments
IFRS 9 issued in 2009 introduces new requirements for the classification and measurement of financial assets. IFRS 9 was subsequently amended in 2010 to include the requirements for the classification and measurement of financial liabilities and for derecognition, and further amended in 2013 to include the new requirements for hedge accounting.
Key requirements of IFRS 9 are described as follows:
• | All recognised financial assets that are within the scope of IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement are subsequently measured at amortised cost or fair value. Specifically, debt investments that are held within a business model whose objective is to collect the contractual cash flows, and that have contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal outstanding are generally measured at amortised cost at the end of subsequent accounting periods. All other debt investments and equity investments are measured at their fair values at the end of subsequent reporting periods. In addition, under IFRS 9, entities may make an irrevocable election to present subsequent changes in the fair value of an equity investment (that is not held for trading) in other comprehensive income, with only dividend income generally recognised in profit or loss. |
• | With regard to the measurement of financial liabilities designated as at fair value through profit or loss, IFRS 9 requires that the amount of change in the fair value of the financial liability that is attributable to changes in the credit risk of that liability is presented in other comprehensive income, unless the recognition of the effects of changes in the liability’s credit risk in other comprehensive income would create or enlarge an accounting mismatch in profit or loss. Changes in fair value of financial liabilities attributable to changes in the financial liabilities’ credit risk are not subsequently reclassified to profit or loss. Under IAS 39, the entire amount of the change in the fair value of the financial liability designated as fair value through profit or loss was presented in profit or loss. |
The new general hedge accounting requirements retain the three types of hedge accounting. However, greater flexibility has been introduced to the types of transactions eligible for hedge accounting, specifically broadening the types of instruments that qualify for hedging instruments and the types of risk components of non-financial items that are eligible for hedge accounting. In addition, the effectiveness test has been overhauled and replaced with the principle of an ‘economic relationship’. Retrospective assessment of hedge effectiveness is also no longer required. Enhanced disclosure requirements about an entity’s risk management activities have also been introduced.
The directors anticipate that the adoption of IFRS 9 in the future may have a material impact on the amounts reported in respect of the Group’s financial assets and financial liabilities (e.g. the Group’s investments in equity securities that are currently classified as available-for-sale investments may have to be measured at fair value at the end of subsequent reporting periods, with changes in the fair value being recognised in other comprehensive income. Regarding the Group’s financial assets, it is not practicable to provide a reasonable estimate of that effect until a detailed review has been completed.
Amendments to IFRS 10, IFRS 12 and IAS 27 Investment Entities
The amendments to IFRS 10 define an investment entity and require a reporting entity that meets the definition of an investment entity not to consolidate its subsidiaries but instead to measure its subsidiaries at fair value through profit or loss in its financial statements.
To qualify as an investment entity, a reporting entity is required to:
• | obtain funds from one or more investors for the purpose of providing them with professional investment management services; |
• | commit to its investor(s) that its business purpose is to invest funds solely for returns from capital appreciation, investment income, or both; and |
• | measure and evaluate performance of substantially all of its investments on a fair value basis. |
Consequential amendments have been made to IFRS 12 and IAS 27 to introduce new disclosure requirements for investment entities.
The directors of the Company do not anticipate that the investment entities amendments will have any effect on the Group’s consolidated financial statements as the Company is not an investment entity.
Amendments to IAS 19 Defined Benefit Plans: Employee Contributions
The amendments to IAS 19 clarify how an entity should account for contributions made by employees or third parties to defined benefit plans, based on whether those contributions are dependent on the number of years of service provided by the employee.
24
Table of Contents
For contributions that are independent of the number of years of service, the entity may either recognise the contributions as a reduction in the service cost in the period in which the related service is rendered, or to attribute them to the employees’ periods of service using the projected unit credit method; whereas for contributions that are dependent on the number of years of service, the entity is required to attribute them to the employees’ periods of service.
The directors of the Company do not anticipate that the application of these amendments to IAS 19 will have a material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements as the Group does not have any defined benefit plans.
Amendments to IAS 32 Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
The amendments to IAS 32 clarify existing application issues relating to the offset of financial assets and financial liabilities requirements. Specifically, the amendments clarify the meaning of ‘currently has a legally enforceable right of set-off’ and ‘simultaneous realisation and settlement’.
The directors of the Company do not anticipate that the application of these amendments to IAS 32 will have a material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements as the Group does not have any financial assets and financial liabilities that qualify for offset.
Amendments to IAS 36 Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-Financial Assets
The amendments to IAS 36 remove the requirement to disclose the recoverable amount of a cash generating unit (CGU) to which goodwill or other intangible assets with indefinite useful lives had been allocated when there has been no impairment or reversal of impairment of the related CGU. Furthermore, the amendments introduce additional disclosure requirements regarding the fair value hierarchy, key assumptions and valuation techniques used when the recoverable amount of an asset or CGU was determined based on its fair value less costs of disposal.
The directors of the Company do not anticipate that the application of these amendments to IAS 36 will have a material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements.
Amendments to IAS 39 Novation of Derivatives and Continuation of Hedge Accounting
The amendments to IAS 39 provide relief from the requirement to discontinue hedge accounting when a derivative hedging instrument is novated under certain circumstances. The amendments also clarify that any change to the fair value of the derivative hedging instrument arising from the novation should be included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness.
The directors of the Company do not anticipate that the application of these amendments to IAS 39 will have material effect on the Group’s consolidated financial statements as the Group does not have any derivatives that are subject to novation.
IFRIC – Int 21 Levies
IFRIC – Int 21 Levies addresses the issue of when to recognise a liability to pay a levy. The Interpretation defines a levy, and specifies that the obligating event that gives rise to the liability is the activity that triggers the payment of the levy, as identified by legislation. The Interpretation provides guidance on how different levy arrangements should be accounted for, in particular, it clarifies that neither economic compulsion nor the going concern basis of financial statements preparation implies that an entity has a present obligation to pay a levy that will be triggered by operating in a future period.
The directors of the Company anticipate that the application of IFRIC — Int 21 will not have any material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements as the Group does not have any levy arrangements.
The directors considered that except for the abovementioned standards or interpretations, the application of other standards or interpretations will have no material impact to the Group’s financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND SHAREHOLDERS OF
YANZHOU COAL MINING COMPANY LIMITED兖州煤业股份有限公司
(A joint stock company with limited liability established in the People’s Republic of China)
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Yanzhou Coal Mining Company Limited and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated income statements, statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2013. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Group’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Yanzhou Coal Mining Company Limited and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2013, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the Group’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, based on the criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”), and our report dated April 29, 2014 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, the Group maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, based on the criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (1992) issued by COSO.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated financial statements of the Group as of and for the year ended December 31, 2013, and our report dated April 29, 2014 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

From 2011 to 2013, the Company entered into agreements with contract parties to further acquire equity interest in Hao Sheng and increase Hao Sheng’s registered capital. Upon completion of these agreements during the period, the Company owns 74.82% equity interest in Hao Sheng with total consideration of RMB7,136,536,000. During the year, the Company made additional contribution of RMB224,460,000 to registered capital in proportion to its equity interest. As at December 31, 2013, Hao Sheng has not yet commenced any business.
In 2012, the Company entered into a cooperation agreement with two independent third parties to set up a company, Shandong Yanmei Rizhao Port Coal Storage and Blending Co., Ltd. (“Rizhao”), to act as a coal blending, storage and distribution base in Rizhao Port. Upon completion of registration procedures during the year, the Company contributed RMB153, 000,000, which represents 51% equity interest of Rizhao.

3. ADOPTION OF NEW AND REVISED INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS
In the current year, the Group had applied, for the first time, the following revised standards (“new IFRSs”) applicable to the Group issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (the “IASB”) and the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (the “IFRIC”) of the IASB, which are effective for the Group’s financial year beginning on January 1, 2013.
IFRSs (Amendments) | Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2009-2011 Cycle | |
IFRS 7 (Amendments) | Disclosures – Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities | |
IFRS 10 | Consolidated Financial Statements | |
IFRS 11 | Joint Arrangements | |
IFRS 12 | Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities | |
IFRS 10, IFRS 11 and IFRS 12 (Amendments) | Consolidated Financial Statements, Joint Arrangements and Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities: Transition Guidance | |
IFRS 13 | Fair Value Measurement | |

IAS 19 (Revised) | Employee Benefits | |
IAS 28 (Revised) | Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures | |
IFRIC 20 | Stripping Costs in the Production Phase of a Surface Mine |
Except as described above, the accounting policies adopted for the current year are consistent with those adopted for the Group’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012.
Except as described below, the application of the above new or revised IFRSs for the current year had no material impact on the amounts reported and/or disclosures set out in the consolidated financial statements for the year.

• | IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements |
IFRS 11 introduces new accounting requirements for joint arrangements, replacing IAS 31-Interests in Joint Ventures. The option to apply the proportional consolidation method when accounting for jointly controlled entities is removed. Additionally, IFRS 11 eliminates jointly controlled assets to now only differentiate between joint operations and joint ventures. A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control have rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities. A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control have rights to the net assets.
After the review and assessment made by the directors of the Company, the directors concluded that the Group’s investment which was classified as jointly controlled entities under IAS 31 should be classified as joint ventures under IFRS 11 and will continue to apply the equity method.
• | IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement |
IFRS 13 applies when another IFRS requires or permits fair value measurements or disclosures about fair value measurements (and measurements, such as fair value less costs to sell, based on fair value or disclosures about those measurements), except for certain exemptions. IFRS 13 requires the disclosures of fair values through a “fair value hierarchy”. The hierarchy categorizes the inputs used in valuation techniques into three levels. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to (unadjusted) quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. If the inputs used to measure fair value are categorized into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the level of the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement.
For disclosure relating the fair value, please refer to note 42.
• | IAS 1 (Amendments) Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income |
The amendments to IAS 1 require additional disclosures to be made in the other comprehensive section such that items of other comprehensive income are grouped into two categories: (a) items that will not be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss; and (b) items that may be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss when specific conditions are met. Income tax on items of other comprehensive income is required to be allocated on the same basis—the amendments do not change the existing option to present items of other comprehensive income either before tax or net of tax. The amendments have been applied retrospectively, and hence the presentation of items of other comprehensive income has been modified to reflect the changes.

• | IFRIC 20 Stripping Costs in the Production Phase of a Surface Mine |
IFRIC 20 Stripping Costs in the Production Phase of a Surface Mine applies to waste removal costs incurred during the production phase of a surface mine (“production stripping costs”). Under the Interpretation, the costs from this waste removal activity (“stripping”) which provide improved access to ore are recognized as a non-current asset (“stripping activity asset”) when certain criteria are met, whereas the costs of stripping activities where the benefit is realised in the form of inventory produced are accounted for in accordance with IAS 2 Inventories. The stripping activity asset is accounted for as an addition to, or as an enhancement of, an existing asset and classified as tangible or intangible according to the nature of the existing asset of which it forms part. When the costs of the stripping activity asset and the inventory produced are not separately identifiable, production stripping costs are allocated between the inventory produced and the stripping activity asset by using an allocation basis that is based on a relevant production measure.
Prior to the effective of IFRIC 20, stripping costs of the Group and its joint ventures which comprises the accumulation of expenses incurred to enable access to the coal seams, and includes direct removal costs, machinery and plant running costs are deferred then charged to the consolidated income statement in subsequent periods on the basis of run-of-mine (“ROM”) coal tonnes mined. This is calculated by multiplying the ROM coal tonnes mined during the year by the weighted average cost to remove a bank cubic metre (“BCM”) of waste by the stripping ratio (ratio of waste removed in BCMs to ROM coal tonnes mined). The stripping ratio of the Company’s Australian subsidiaries is based on the JORC reserves of each mine.
The requirements in IFRIC 20 differs from the Group and its joint ventures’ previous policies in that only waste stripping costs which provide improved access to ore can be capitalized when certain criteria are met, and the capitalization and amortization of waste stripping costs is undertaken at the level of individual deposits or components thereof rather than on a whole-for-mine basis. In addition, specific transitional rules are provided to deal with any opening deferred stripping balances recognised under the previous accounting policies.
As a result of the adoption of the IFRIC 20, any previously recognised asset that resulted from stripping activity undertaken during the production phase (predecessor stripping asset) is reclassified as part of the existing asset to which the stripping activity related, to the extent that there remains an identifiable component of the orebody with which the predecessor stripping asset can be associated. Such balances are then amortised over the remaining expected useful life of the identified component of the orebody to which each predecessor stripping asset balance relates. If there is no identifiable component of the orebody to which the predecessor asset relates, it has been written off through opening retained earnings at the beginning of the earliest period presented. IFRIC 20 has been applied by Group and its joint ventures prospectively to production stripping costs incurred on or after the beginning of the earliest period presented.

Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2010-2012 Cycle
The Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2010-2012 Cycle include a number of amendments to various IFRSs, which are summarised below.
The amendments to IFRS 2 (i) change the definitions of ‘vesting condition’ and ‘market condition’; and (ii) add definitions for ‘performance condition’ and ‘service condition’ which were previously included within the definition of ‘vesting condition’. The amendments to IFRS 2 are effective for share-based payment transactions for which the grant date is on or after July 1, 2014.
The amendments to IFRS 3 clarify that contingent consideration that is classified as an asset or a liability should be measured at fair value at each reporting date, irrespective of whether the contingent consideration is a financial instrument within the scope of IFRS 9 or IAS 39 or a non-financial asset or liability. Changes in fair value (other than measurement period adjustments) should be recognised in profit and loss. The amendments to IFRS 3 are effective for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after July 1, 2014.
The amendments to IFRS 8 (i) require an entity to disclose the judgements made by management in applying the aggregation criteria to operating segments, including a description of the operating segments aggregated and the economic indicators assessed in determining whether the operating segments have ‘similar economic characteristics’; and (ii) clarify that a reconciliation of the total of the reportable segments’ assets to the entity’s assets should only be provided if the segment assets are regularly provided to the chief operating decision-maker.

Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2010-2012 Cycle—continued
The amendments to the basis for conclusions of IFRS 13 clarify that the issue of IFRS 13 and consequential amendments to IAS 39 and IFRS 9 did not remove the ability to measure short- term receivables and payables with no stated interest rate at their invoice amounts without discounting, if the effect of discounting is immaterial.
The amendments to IAS 16 and IAS 38 remove perceived inconsistencies in the accounting for accumulated depreciation/amortisation when an item of property, plant and equipment or an intangible asset is revalued. The amended standards clarify that the gross carrying amount is adjusted in a manner consistent with the revaluation of the carrying amount of the asset and that accumulated depreciation/amortisation is the difference between the gross carrying amount and the carrying amount after taking into account accumulated impairment losses.
The amendments to IAS 24 clarify that a management entity providing key management personnel services to a reporting entity is a related party of the reporting entity. Consequently, the reporting entity should disclose as related party transactions the amounts incurred for the service paid or payable to the management entity for the provision of key management personnel services. However, disclosure of the components of such compensation is not required.
The directors do not anticipate that the application of the amendments included in the Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2010-2012 Cycle will have a material effect on the Group’s consolidated financial statements.
Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2011-2013 Cycle
TheAnnual Improvements to IFRSs 2011-2013 Cycle include a number of amendments to various IFRSs, which are summarised below.
The amendments to IFRS 3 clarify that the standard does not apply to the accounting for the formation of all types of joint arrangement in the financial statements of the joint arrangement itself.
The amendments to IFRS 13 clarify that the scope of the portfolio exception for measuring the fair value of a group of financial assets and financial liabilities on a net basis includes all contracts that are within the scope of, and accounted for in accordance with, IAS 39 or IFRS 9, even if those contracts do not meet the definitions of financial assets or financial liabilities within IAS 32.
The amendments to IAS 40 clarify that IAS 40 and IFRS 3 are not mutually exclusive and
application of both standards may be required. Consequently, an entity acquiring investment property must determine whether:
(a) the property meets the definition of investment property in terms of IAS 40; and
(b) the transaction meets the definition of a business combination under IFRS 3.
The directors do not anticipate that the application of the amendments included in the Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2011-2013 Cycle will have a material effect on the Group’s consolidated financial statements.

3. ADOPTION OF NEW AND REVISED INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS—Continued
IFRS 9 Financial Instruments
IFRS 9 issued in 2009 introduces new requirements for the classification and measurement of financial assets. IFRS 9 was subsequently amended in 2010 to include the requirements for the classification and measurement of financial liabilities and for derecognition, and further amended in 2013 to include the new requirements for hedge accounting.
Key requirements of IFRS 9 are described as follows:
• | All recognised financial assets that are within the scope of IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement are subsequently measured at amortised cost or fair value. Specifically, debt investments that are held within a business model whose objective is to collect the contractual cash flows, and that have contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal outstanding are generally measured at amortised cost at the end of subsequent accounting periods. All other debt investments and equity investments are measured at their fair values at the end of subsequent reporting periods. In addition, under IFRS 9, entities may make an irrevocable election to present subsequent changes in the fair value of an equity investment (that is not held for trading) in other comprehensive income, with only dividend income generally recognised in profit or loss. |
• | With regard to the measurement of financial liabilities designated as at fair value through profit or loss, IFRS 9 requires that the amount of change in the fair value of the financial liability that is attributable to changes in the credit risk of that liability is presented in other comprehensive income, unless the recognition of the effects of changes in the liability’s credit risk in other comprehensive income would create or enlarge an accounting mismatch in profit or loss. Changes in fair value of financial liabilities attributable to changes in the financial liabilities’ credit risk are not subsequently reclassified to profit or loss. Under IAS 39, the entire amount of the change in the fair value of the financial liability designated as fair value through profit or loss was presented in profit or loss. |
The new general hedge accounting requirements retain the three types of hedge accounting. However, greater flexibility has been introduced to the types of transactions eligible for hedge accounting, specifically broadening the types of instruments that qualify for hedging instruments and the types of risk components of non-financial items that are eligible for hedge accounting. In addition, the effectiveness test has been overhauled and replaced with the principle of an ‘economic relationship’. Retrospective assessment of hedge effectiveness is also no longer required. Enhanced disclosure requirements about an entity’s risk management activities have also been introduced.
The directors anticipate that the adoption of IFRS 9 in the future may have a material impact on the amounts reported in respect of the Group’s financial assets and financial liabilities (e.g. the Group’s investments in equity securities that are currently classified as available-for-sale investments may have to be measured at fair value at the end of subsequent reporting periods, with changes in the fair value being recognised in other comprehensive income. Regarding the Group’s financial assets, it is not practicable to provide a reasonable estimate of that effect until a detailed review has been completed.

Amendments to IFRS 10, IFRS 12 and IAS 27 Investment Entities
The amendments to IFRS 10 define an investment entity and require a reporting entity that meets the definition of an investment entity not to consolidate its subsidiaries but instead to measure its subsidiaries at fair value through profit or loss in its financial statements.
To qualify as an investment entity, a reporting entity is required to:
• | obtain funds from one or more investors for the purpose of providing them with professional investment management services; |
• | commit to its investor(s) that its business purpose is to invest funds solely for returns from capital appreciation, investment income, or both; and |
• | measure and evaluate performance of substantially all of its investments on a fair value basis. |
Consequential amendments have been made to IFRS 12 and IAS 27 to introduce new disclosure requirements for investment entities.
The directors of the Company do not anticipate that the investment entities amendments will have any effect on the Group’s consolidated financial statements as the Company is not an investment entity.
Amendments to IAS 19 Defined Benefit Plans: Employee Contributions
The amendments to IAS 19 clarify how an entity should account for contributions made by employees or third parties to defined benefit plans, based on whether those contributions are dependent on the number of years of service provided by the employee.
For contributions that are independent of the number of years of service, the entity may either recognise the contributions as a reduction in the service cost in the period in which the related service is rendered, or to attribute them to the employees’ periods of service using the projected unit credit method; whereas for contributions that are dependent on the number of years of service, the entity is required to attribute them to the employees’ periods of service.
The directors of the Company do not anticipate that the application of these amendments to IAS 19 will have a material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements as the Group does not have any defined benefit plans.
Amendments to IAS 32 Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
The amendments to IAS 32 clarify existing application issues relating to the offset of financial assets and financial liabilities requirements. Specifically, the amendments clarify the meaning of ‘currently has a legally enforceable right of set-off’ and ‘simultaneous realisation and settlement’.
The directors of the Company do not anticipate that the application of these amendments to IAS 32 will have a material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements as the Group does not have any financial assets and financial liabilities that qualify for offset.

Amendments to IAS 36 Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-Financial Assets
The amendments to IAS 36 remove the requirement to disclose the recoverable amount of a cash generating unit (CGU) to which goodwill or other intangible assets with indefinite useful lives had been allocated when there has been no impairment or reversal of impairment of the related CGU. Furthermore, the amendments introduce additional disclosure requirements regarding the fair value hierarchy, key assumptions and valuation techniques used when the recoverable amount of an asset or CGU was determined based on its fair value less costs of disposal.
The directors of the Company do not anticipate that the application of these amendments to IAS 36 will have a material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements.
Amendments to IAS 39 Novation of Derivatives and Continuation of Hedge Accounting
The amendments to IAS 39 provide relief from the requirement to discontinue hedge accounting when a derivative hedging instrument is novated under certain circumstances. The amendments also clarify that any change to the fair value of the derivative hedging instrument arising from the novation should be included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness.
The directors of the Company do not anticipate that the application of these amendments to IAS 39 will have material effect on the Group’s consolidated financial statements as the Group does not have any derivatives that are subject to novation.
IFRIC – Int 21 Levies
IFRIC – Int 21 Levies addresses the issue of when to recognise a liability to pay a levy. The Interpretation defines a levy, and specifies that the obligating event that gives rise to the liability is the activity that triggers the payment of the levy, as identified by legislation. The Interpretation provides guidance on how different levy arrangements should be accounted for, in particular, it clarifies that neither economic compulsion nor the going concern basis of financial statements preparation implies that an entity has a present obligation to pay a levy that will be triggered by operating in a future period.
The directors of the Company anticipate that the application of IFRIC – Int 21 will not have any material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements as the Group does not have any levy arrangements.
The directors considered that except for the abovementioned standards or interpretations, the application of other standards or interpretations will have no material impact to the Group’s financial statements.

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments, which are stated at fair value. The accounting policies are set out below.
Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and all of its subsidiaries.
Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases.
Income and expenses of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated income statement from the date on which control is transferred to the group or up to the date that control ceases, as appropriate. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Company and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.
Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with those used by other members of the Group.
All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated on consolidation.
Changes in the Group’s ownership interests in subsidiaries that do not result in the Group losing control over the subsidiaries are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amounts of the Group’s interests and the non-controlling interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in relative interests in the subsidiaries. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity and attributed to owners of the Company.
When the Group ceases to have control of the entity, any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value at the date when control is lost, with the change in carrying amount recognised in profit or loss. The fair value is the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss.
Business combination
Acquisitions of businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in a business combination is measured at fair value, which is calculated as the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of assets transferred by the Group, liabilities incurred by the Group to former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the Group in exchange for control of the acquiree. Acquisition-related costs are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.

YANZHOU COAL MINING COMPANY LIMITED AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES—Continued
Business combination—continued
Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. Subsequent adjustments to the consideration are recognized against the cost of acquisition within the measurement period which does not exceed one year from the acquisition date. Subsequent accounting for changes in fair values of the contingent consideration that do not qualify as measurement period adjustments is included in the income statement or within equity for contingent consideration classified as an asset/liability and equity respectively.
Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree, and the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any) over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. If, after assessment, the Group’s interest in the fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets exceeds the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree and the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held interest in the acquiree (if any), the excess is recognized immediately in profit or loss as a bargain purchase gain.
Non-controlling interests that are present ownership interests and entitle their holders to a proportionate share of the entity’s net assets in the event of liquidation may be initially measured either at fair value or at the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the recognized amounts of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. The choice of measurement basis is made on a transaction-by-transaction basis. The Group applies the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the recognized amounts of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets to account for all its acquisitions.
Combinations of businesses under common control are accounted for using the acquisition method, which is consistent with the accounting treatment for all other acquisitions of businesses. The principles and details of this accounting treatment are set out above.
Interests in associates
An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence and that is neither a subsidiary nor an interest in a joint venture. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over those policies.
The results and assets and liabilities of associates are incorporated in these consolidated financial statements using the equity method. Under the equity method, investments in associates are carried in the consolidated balance sheet at cost and adjusted for post-acquisition changes in the Group’s share of net assets of the associates, less any identified impairment loss. When the Group’s share of losses of an associate equals or exceeds its interest in that associate (which includes any long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the Group’s net investment in the associate), the Group discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. Additional share of losses is provided for and a liability is recognized only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of that associate. If the associate subsequently reports profits, the Group resumes recognizing its share of those profits only after its share of the profits exceeds the accumulated share of losses that has previously not been recognized.

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES—Continued
Interests in associates—continued
Any excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the associate recognized at the date of acquisition is recognized as goodwill. The goodwill is included within the carrying amount of the investment and is assessed for impairment as part of the investment. Any excess of the Group’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over the cost of acquisition, after reassessment, is recognized immediately in profit or loss.
The requirements of IAS 39 are applied to determine whether it is necessary to recognize any impairment loss with respect to the Group’s investment in associates. When necessary, the entire carrying amount of the investment (including goodwill) is tested for impairment in accordance with IAS 36 Impairment of Assets as a single asset by comparing its recoverable amount (higher of value in use and fair value less costs to sell) with its carrying amount. Any impairment loss recognized forms part of the carrying amount of the investment and the reversal of that impairment loss is recognized in accordance with IAS 36 to the extent that the recoverable amount of the investment subsequently increases.
Where a group entity transacts with an associate of the Group, profits and losses are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the relevant associate.
Joint arrangements
A joint venture is an arrangement in which the Group has joint control, whereby the Group has rights to the net assets of the arrangement, rather than rights to its assets and obligation for its liabilities. A joint operation is an arrangement in which the Group has joint control, whereby the Group has rights to the assets, and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.
Joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method and the details of equity method of accounting have been set out in the accounting policy forinterests in associates. When a group entity transacts with a jointly controlled entity of the Group, unrealized profits and losses are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the joint venture.
When Group entity undertakes its activities under joint operations, the Group as a joint operator recognises its direct right to, and its share of jointly held assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of joint operations. These have been incorporated in the financial statements under appropriate headings.

Revenue recognition
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for goods sold and services provided in the normal course of business, net of discounts and sales related taxes. Provided it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the revenue and costs, if applicable, can be measured reliably, revenue is recognized in profit or loss as follows:
Sales of goods (including coal and methanol) are recognized upon transfer of the significant risks and rewards of ownership to the customer. This is usually taken as the time when the goods are delivered and the customer has accepted the goods.
Service income such as coal railway transportation and electricity and heat supply is recognized when services are provided.
Interest income from a financial asset is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial assets to that asset’s net carrying amount.
Dividend income from investments is recognized when the shareholders’ rights to receive payments have been established.
Intangible assets (other than goodwill)
Intangible assets acquired separately
Intangible assets acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Amortization is recognized over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and amortization method are reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.
Internally-generated intangible assets – research and development expenditure
Expenditure on research activities is recognized as an expense in the period in which it is incurred.
An internally-generated intangible asset arising from development expenditure is recognized only if it is anticipated that the development costs incurred on a clearly-defined project will be recovered through future commercial activity. The resultant asset is amortized on a straight line basis over its useful life. Expenditure incurred on projects to develop new products is capitalized only when the Group can demonstrate the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale, its intention to complete and its ability to use or sell the asset, how the asset will generate future economic benefits, the availability of resources to complete the project and the ability to measure reliably the expenditure during the development.
Intangible assets acquired in a business combination
Intangible assets acquired in a business combination and recognized separately from goodwill are initially recognized at their fair value at the acquisition date (which is regarded as their cost).

Intangible assets (other than goodwill)—continued
Intangible assets acquired in a business combination—continued
Subsequent to initial recognition, intangible assets acquired in a business combination are reported at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses, on the same basis as intangible assets that are acquired separately.
(i) Mining reserves
Mining reserves represent the portion of total proven and probable reserves in the mine of a mining right. Mining reserves are amortized over the life of the mine on a unit of production basis of the estimated total proven and probable reserves or the Australia Joint Ore Reserves Committee (“JORC”) reserves for the Group’s subsidiaries in Australia. Changes in the annual amortization rate resulting from changes in the remaining reserves are applied on a prospective basis from the commencement of the next financial year.
(ii) Mining resources
Mining resources represent the fair value of economically recoverable reserves (excluding the portion of total proven and probable reserves of a mining right i.e. does not include the above mining reserves) of a mining right (Details are set out in the accounting policy of exploration and evaluation expenditure). When production commences, the mining resources for the relevant areas of interest are amortized over the life of the area according to the rate of depletion of the economically recoverable reserves.
Exploration and evaluation expenditure
Exploration and evaluation expenditure incurred is accumulated in respect of each separately identifiable area of interest which is at individual mine level. These costs are only carried forward where the right of tenure for the area of interest is current and to the extent that they are expected to be recouped through successful development and commercial exploitation, or alternatively, sale of the area, or where activities in the area have not yet reached a stage which permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves and active and significant operations in, or in relation to, the area of interest are continuing.
The carrying amount of exploration and evaluation assets is assessed for impairment when facts or circumstances suggest the carrying amount of the assets may exceed their recoverable amount.
A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest. Accumulated costs in relation to an abandoned area are written-off in full in the period in which the decision to abandon the area is made.
When production commences, the accumulated costs for the relevant area of interest are amortized over the life of the area according to the rate of depletion of the economically recoverable reserves.

Exploration and evaluation expenditure—continued
Capitalized exploration and evaluation expenditure considered to be tangible is recorded as a component of property, plant and equipment. Otherwise, it is recorded as an intangible asset.
Exploration and evaluation expenditure acquired in a business combination are recognized at their fair value at the acquisition date (the fair value of potential economically recoverable reserves at the acquisition date which is shown as “Mining resources”)
Prepaid lease payments
Prepaid lease payments represent land use rights under operating lease arrangement and are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment, other than construction in progress and freehold land, are stated at cost less subsequent accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.
Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost of items of property, plant and equipment, other than construction in progress and freehold land, over their estimated useful lives and after taking into account their estimated residual value, using the straight line method or unit of production method.
Construction in progress represents property, plant and equipment under construction for production or for its own use purposes. Construction in progress is carried at cost less any impairment loss. Construction in progress is classified to the appropriate category of property, plant and equipment when completed and ready for intended use. Depreciation commences when the assets are ready for their intended use.
Any gain or loss arising on the disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognized immediately in the consolidated income statement.
Impairment other than goodwill
At each balance sheet date, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets and intangible assets with finite useful life to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset (determined at the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use) is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Intangible assets with an indefinite useful life will be tested for impairment annually.
In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. Impairment loss is recognized as an expense immediately.

Impairment other than goodwill—continued
Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but such that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset (cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized as an income immediately.
For the purposes of impairment testing, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets (cash-generating units). Assessment is performed for each area of interest in conjunction with the group of operating assets (representing a cash generating unit) to which the mining activity (mining complex level) is attributed. Management monitors and manages operations at the mining complex level to identify cash-generating streams.
Goodwill
Goodwill arising on acquisitions prior to January 1, 2005 (transition to new IFRS)
Goodwill arising on an acquisition of net assets and operations of another entity for which the agreement date is before January 1, 2005 represents the excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group’s interest in the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the relevant acquiree at the date of acquisition.
The Group has discontinued amortization from January 1, 2005 onwards, and such goodwill is tested for impairment annually, and whenever there is an indication that the cash-generating unit to which the goodwill relates may be impaired (see the accounting policy below).
Goodwill arising on acquisitions on or after January 1, 2005
Goodwill arising on an acquisition of a business for which the agreement date is on or after January 1, 2005 represents the excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group’s interest in the fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the relevant business at the date of acquisition. Such goodwill is carried at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.
Goodwill is presented separately in the consolidated balance sheet.
For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the Group’s cash-generating units expected to benefit from the synergies of the acquisition. Cash-generating units to which goodwill has been allocated are tested for impairment annually, or more frequently when there is an indication that the unit may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than the carrying amount of the unit, the impairment loss is allocated to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit first and then to the other assets of the unit pro-rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Any impairment is recognized immediately in the consolidated income statement and is not subsequently reversed.
On disposal of the relevant cash-generating unit, the attributable amount of goodwill is included in the determination of the gain or loss on disposal.

Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash at bank and in hand, demand deposits with banks and other financial institution and short term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. For the preparation of consolidated cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents include bank overdrafts which are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Group’s cash management.
Inventories
Inventories of coal and methanol are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost, which comprises direct materials and, where applicable, direct labour and overheads that have been incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition, is calculated using the weighted average method. Net realizable value represents the estimated selling price less all further costs to completion and costs to be incurred in selling, marketing and distribution.
Inventories of auxiliary materials, spare parts and small tools expected to be used in production are stated at weighted average cost less allowance, if necessary, for obsolescence.
Overburden in advance
Overburden in advance comprises mining stripping (waste removal) costs both during the development and production phase of the Group’s operations.
When stripping costs are included in the development phase of a mine before the production phase commences (development stripping). Such expenditure is capitalised as part of the cost of constructing the mine if it can be demonstrated that it is probable that future economic benefits will be realised, the costs can be reliably measured and the entity can identify the component of the ore body for which access has been improved. The stripping assets subsequently amortised over its useful life using a units of production method, in accordance with the policy applicable to mine properties. The capitalisation of development stripping costs ceases when the mine/component is commissioned and ready for use as intended by management.
Waste development costs incurred in the production phase creates two benefits, being either the production of inventory or improved access to the ore to be mined in the future. Where the benefits are realised in the form of inventory produced in the period, the production stripping costs are accounted for as part of the cost of producing those inventories. Where production stripping costs are incurred and the benefit is improved access to ore to be mined in the future, the costs are recognised as a stripping activity asset in mine properties.
If the costs of the inventory produced and the stripping asset are not separately identifiable, the allocation is undertaken based on waste-to-ore stripping ratio for the particular ore component concerned. If mining of waste in a period occurs in excess of the expected life-of-component average waste-to-ore strip ratio, the excess is recognised as part of the stripping asset. Where mining occurs at or below the expected life-of-component stripping ratio in a period, the entire production stripping cost is allocated to the cost of the ore inventory produced.
Amortisation is provided on the units-of-production method over the life of the identified component of orebody. The units-of-production method results in an amortisation charge proportional to the depletion of the economically recoverable mineral resources (comprising proven and probable reserves).
Stripping costs that do not satisfy the asset recognition criteria are expensed.

Overburden in advance—continued
The assumptions used by management to estimate saleable coal production, run-of-mine (ROM) coal tonnes mined, and the weighted average cost to remove a bank cubic metre (BCM) of waste include a range of geological, technical and economic factors, including quantities, grades, production techniques, recovery rates, production costs, transport costs, commodity demand, commodity prices and exchange rates. Estimating the quantity and/or grade of reserves requires a determination of the size, shape and depth of ore bodies or fields by analyzing geological data such as drilling samples. Changes in reported reserves may affect overburden removal costs since the costs may change due to changes in stripping ratios or the units of production basis of depreciation. Any changes in estimates are reflected on a prospective basis.
Taxation
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit as reported in the consolidated income statement because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The Group’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.
Deferred tax is recognized on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit, and are accounted for using the balance sheet liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences, and deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilized. Such assets and liabilities are not recognized if the temporary difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries, interest in associates and joint ventures, except where the Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset realised. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the consolidated income statement, except when it relates to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the deferred tax is also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Group intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.

Taxation—continued
The Company’s wholly-owned Australian subsidiaries have formed an income tax consolidated group under the tax consolidation regime. Each entity in the tax consolidated group recognizes its own deferred tax assets and liabilities, except where the deferred tax assets relate to unused tax losses and credits, in which case the Australian subsidiaries recognizes the assets. Australian subsidiaries have entered into a tax sharing agreement whereby each company of Australian subsidiaries contributes to the income tax payable in proportion to their contribution to the profit before tax of the tax consolidated group. The tax consolidated group has also entered into a tax funding agreement whereby each entity in Australian subsidiaries group can recognize their balance of the current tax assets and liabilities through inter-entity accounts.

Land subsidence, restoration, rehabilitation and environmental costs
One consequence of coal mining is land subsidence caused by the resettlement of the land above the underground mining sites. Depending on the circumstances, the Group may relocate inhabitants from the land above the underground mining sites prior to mining those sites or the Group may compensate the inhabitants for losses or damages from land subsidence after the underground sites have been mined. The Group may also be required to make payments for restoration, rehabilitation or environmental protection of the land after the underground sites have been mined.
An estimate of such costs is recognized in the period in which the obligation is identified and is charged as an expense in proportion to the coal extracted. At each balance sheet date, the Group adjusts the estimated costs in accordance with the actual land subsidence status. The provision is also adjusted for changes in estimates. Those adjustments are accounted for as a change in the corresponding capitalised cost, except where a reduction in the provision is greater than the undepreciated capitalised cost of any related assets, in which case the capitalised cost is reduced to nil and remaining adjustment is recognized in the income statement. Changes to the capitalised cost result in an adjustment to future depreciation and financial charges.
Leasing
Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
Where the Group acquires the use of assets under finance leases, the amounts representing the fair value of the leased asset, or, if lower, the present values of the minimum lease payments of such assets are included in property, plant and equipment and the corresponding liabilities, net of finance charges, are recorded as an obligation under finance leases.
Each lease payment is allocated between liability and finance charges so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. The finance lease liabilities are included in current and non-current borrowings. The finance charges are expensed in the income statement over the lease periods so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. The assets accounted for as finance leases are depreciated over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the lease periods.
Operating lease payments are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Contingent rentals arising under operating leases are recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

Provisions and contingent liabilities
Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made. Where the time value of money is material, provisions are stated at the present value of the expenditure expected to settle the obligation.
All provisions are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate.
Where it is not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required, or the amount cannot be estimated reliably, the obligation is disclosed as a contingent liability, unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote. Possible obligations, whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more future uncertain events not wholly within the control of the Group are also disclosed as contingent liabilities unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote.
Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are capitalized as part of the cost of those assets. Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalization. Capitalization of borrowing costs is suspended or ceases when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the qualifying asset for its intended use or sale are interrupted or complete.
All other borrowings costs are recognized as expenses in the period in which they are incurred.
Foreign currencies
In preparing the financial statements of each individual group entity, transactions in currencies other than the functional currency of that entity (foreign currencies) are recorded in the respective functional currency (i.e., the currency of the primary environment in which the entity operates) at the rates of exchanges prevailing on the dates of the transactions. At each balance sheet date, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the balance sheet date. Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates prevailing on the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.
Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items, and on the translation of monetary items, are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.
Exchange differences on monetary items receivable from or payable to foreign operation for which settlement is neither planned nor likely to occur (therefore forming part of the net investment in the foreign operation), which are recognized initially in other comprehensive income and reclassified from equity to profit or loss on repayment of the monetary items.

Foreign currencies—continued
For the purposes of presenting the consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the Group’s foreign operations are translated into the presentation currency of the Company (i.e. Renminbi) at the rate of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date, and their income and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates for the year, unless exchange rates fluctuate significantly during the period, in which case, the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of transactions are used. Exchange differences arising, if any, are recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity (attributed to non-controlling interests as appropriate). Such exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which the foreign operation is disposed of.
Government grants
Government grants are recognized as income over the periods necessary to match them with the related costs. If the grants do not relate to any specific expenditure incurred by the Group, they are reported separately as other income. If the grants subsidize an expense incurred by the Group, they are deducted in reporting the related expense. Grants relating to depreciable assets are presented as a deduction from the cost of the relevant asset.
Annual leave, sick leave and long service leave
Benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave and sick leave are included in trade and other payables. Related on-costs are also included in trade and other payables as other creditors. Long service leave is provided for when it is probable that settlement will be required and it is capable of being measured reliably.
Employee benefits expected to be settled within 12 months are measured using the remuneration rate expected to apply at the time of settlement. Provisions made in respect of employee benefits which are not expected to be settled within 12 months are measured as the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made by the Group in respect of services provided by employees up to the balance sheet date.
Retirement benefit costs
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit plans are charged as expenses when the employees render the services entitling them to the contributions.

Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognized immediately in profit or loss.
Financial assets
The Group’s financial assets are classified into loans and receivables, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and available-for-sale financial assets. All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace. The accounting policies adopted in respect of financial assets are set out below.
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Loans and receivables (including bank balances and cash, term deposits, restricted cash, bills and accounts receivable, other current assets and long-term receivables) are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any identified impairment loss.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss included financial assets held for trading and financial assets designated as fair value through profit or loss upon initial recognition. Financial assets are classified as held for trading if it is acquired principally for the purpose of selling or repurchasing it in the near term or on initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that are managed together and for which there is evidence of a recent actual patter of short-term profit-taking.
Royalty receivable is remeasured based on sales volume, price changes, foreign currency exchange rates and expected future cash flows at each balance sheet date. The gain or loss arising from the change in fair value of royalty receivable is recognized in profit or loss. Royalty receivable is reduced by cash receipts and decreases with time. Since the contract is long term, the unwinding discount (to reflect time value of money) is recognized in interest income.

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES—Continued
Financial instruments—continued
Financial assets—continued
Available-for-sale financial assets
Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivatives that are either designated or not classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables or held-to-maturity investments.
At each balance sheet date subsequent to initial recognition, available-for-sale financial assets are measured at fair value. Changes in fair value are recognized initially in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity, until the financial asset is disposed of or is determined to be impaired, at which time, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in equity is removed from equity and recognized in profit or loss (see accounting policy on impairment loss on financial assets below).
Available-for-sale equity investments that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured are measured at cost less any identified impairment losses at each balance sheet date subsequent to initial recognition (see accounting policy on impairment loss on financial assets below).
Impairment of financial assets
Financial assets are assessed for indicators of impairment at each balance sheet date. Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the financial assets have been impacted.
For an available-for sale equity investment, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of that investment below its cost is considered to be objective evidence of impairment.
For all other financial assets, objective evidence of impairment could include:
• | significant financial difficulty of the issuer or counterparty; or |
• | default or delinquency in interest or principal payments; or |
• | it becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial re-organization. |
For certain categories of financial asset, such as trade and bills receivables, assets that are assessed not to be impaired individually are subsequently assessed for impairment on a collective basis. Objective evidence of impairment for a portfolio of receivables could include the Group’s past experience of collecting payments and changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with default on receivables.
For financial assets carried at amortized cost, an impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss when there is objective evidence that the asset is impaired, and is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate.

Financial assets—continued
Impairment of financial assets—Continued
For available-for-sale equity investments carried at cost, the amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar financial asset. Such impairment loss will not be reversed in subsequent periods.
The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of trade and bills receivables and other receivables, where the carrying amounts are reduced through the use of an allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognized in profit or loss. When a trade and bills receivables and other receivables are considered uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited to profit or loss.
For financial assets measured at amortized cost, if, in a subsequent period, the amount of impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment losses was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the asset at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortized cost would have been had the impairment not been recognized.
Impairment losses on available-for-sale equity investments will not be reversed in profit or loss in subsequent periods. Any increase in fair value subsequent to impairment loss is recognized initially in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity.
Financial liabilities and equity
Financial liabilities and equity instruments issued by the Group are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Group after deducting all of its liabilities.
Financial liabilities
The Group’s financial liabilities including bills and accounts payables, other payables, amounts due to Parent Company and its subsidiary companies, finance lease liabilities, guaranteed notes and bank and other borrowings which are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost, using the effective interest method and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss.

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading and financial liabilities designated at initial recognition as at fair value through profit and loss. Financial liabilities are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling in the near term.
Equity instruments
Equity instruments issued by the Company are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
Derecognition
Financial assets are derecognized when the rights to receive cash flows from the assets expire or, the financial assets are transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial assets or, the financial assets has been transferred, although the company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risk and rewards of ownership of the financial assets, but the Company give up control of the financial assets.
On derecognition of a financial asset, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognized directly in equity is recognized in profit or loss.
Financial liabilities are derecognized when the obligation specified in the relevant contract is discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid and payable is recognized in profit or loss.
Accounting for derivative financial instruments and hedging activities
Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value at the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at their fair value. The method of recognizing the resulting gain or loss depends on whether the derivative is designated as a hedging instrument, and if so, the nature of the item being hedged. The Group designates certain derivatives as either: (i) hedges of the fair value of recognized assets or liabilities (fair value hedge); and (ii) hedges of highly probable forecast transactions (cash flow hedge).

Accounting for derivative financial instruments and hedging activities—continued
The Group documents at the inception of the transaction the relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objectives and strategy for undertaking various hedging transactions. The Group also documents its assessment, both at the inception of the hedge and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of the hedged items.
The fair values of various derivative instruments used for hedging purposes are disclosed in note 36. The full fair value of a hedging derivative is classified as a non-current asset or liability when the remaining maturity of the hedged item is more than 12 months and as a current asset or liability when the remaining maturity of the hedged item is less than 12 months.
(i) Cash flow hedge
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges are recognized initially in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognized immediately in the profit and loss. Amounts accumulated in equity are recognized in the profit and loss as the underlying hedged items are recognized.
Amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity are reclassified to profit or loss in the periods when the hedged item is recognized in profit or loss.
When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, or when a hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, any cumulative gain or loss existing in equity at that time remains in equity and is recognized when the forecast transaction is ultimately recognized in the profit and loss. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was reported in equity is immediately transferred to the profit or loss.
(ii) Derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting and those not designated as hedging instruments
Changes in the fair value of any derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting and those not designated as hedges are recognized immediately in the profit or loss.

5. ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY
In the application of the Group’s accounting policies, which are described in note 4, management is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
Depreciation of property, plant and equipment
The cost of mining structures is depreciated using the unit of production method based on the estimated production volume for which the structure was designed. The management exercises their judgment in estimating the useful lives of the depreciable assets and the production volume of the mine. The estimated coal production volumes are updated at regular intervals and have taken into account recent production and technical information about each mine. These changes are considered a change in estimate for accounting purposes and are reflected on a prospective basis in related depreciation rates. Estimates of the production volume are inherently imprecise and represent only approximate amounts because of the subjective judgements involved in developing such information.
Amortization of assets
Mining reserve and mining resources are amortized on a straight line basis or unit of production basis over the shorter of their useful lives and the contractual period. The expensing of overburden removal costs is based on saleable coal production over estimated economically recoverable reserves. The useful lives are estimated on the basis of the total proven and probable reserves of the mine. Proven and probable mining reserve estimates are updated at regular intervals and have taken into account recent production and technical information about each mine.
Provision for land subsidence, restoration, rehabilitation and environmental costs
The provision is reviewed regularly to verify that it properly reflects the remaining obligation arising from the current and past mining activities. Provision for land subsidence, restoration, rehabilitation and environmental costs are determined by the management based on their best estimates of the current and future costs, latest government policies and past experiences.

5. ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY—Continued
Impairment of goodwill
Determining whether goodwill is impaired requires an estimation of the value in use of the cash-generating units to which goodwill has been allocated. The value in use calculation requires the Group to estimate the future cash flows expected to arise from the cash-generating unit and a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value. As at December 31, 2013, the carrying amount of goodwill is RMB2,460,551,000 (2012: RMB2,573,811,000). During the year ended December 31, 2013, no impairment loss on goodwill (2012: RMB17,625,000) was recognised by the Group and details are set out in note 25.
Cash flow projections during the budget period for each of the above units are based on the budgeted revenue and expected gross margins during the budget period and the raw materials price inflation during the budget period. Expected cash inflows/outflows have been determined based on past performance and management’s expectations for the market development.
Estimated impairment of property, plant and equipment
When there is an impairment indicator, the Group takes into consideration the estimation of future cash flows. The amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows. Where the actual future cash flows are less than expected, a material impairment loss may arise. In estimating the future cash flows, the management have taken into account the recent production and technical advancement. As prices and cost levels change from year to year, the estimate of the future cash flow also changes. Notwithstanding the management has used all the available information to make their impairment assessment, inherent uncertainty exists on conditions of the mine and of the environment and actual written off may be higher than the amount estimated. As at December 31, 2013, the carrying amounts of property, plant and equipment is approximately RMB41,896,508,000 (2012: RMB39,503,103,000). During the year ended December 31, 2013, no property, plant and equipment was written off as expenses (2012: nil; 2011: nil). In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2013, no impairment loss on property, plant and equipment (2012: RMB226,925,000; 2011: RMB281,994,000) was recognized by the Group and the details of impairment are set out in note 24.

Estimated impairment of property, plant and equipment—continued
Most of the coal sales by Premier and Wesfarmers Char are governed by a contract signed with an independent power station. The remaining coal sales are to independent third parties which are sold at market prices. The contract with the power station was a required condition in order for the government to grant the mining rights to Premier and Wesfarmers Char. The sales price under the contract is below market price and Premier and Wesfarmers Char are unable to negotiate to revise the terms of the existing contract, including the sale price of coal. Given the current level of market price of coal and rising costs, the Company also expected that the power station may purchase more coal from Premier and Wesfarmers Char, which will drive down the Company’s overall average sales prices. In 2012, a combined assessment of Premier and Wesfarmers Char, being a cash-generating unit, was performed, and hence in 2012, the Company recorded impairment on intangible assets (mining reserves and mining resources) of RMB417,214,000, property, plant and equipment (mining structures) of RMB226,925,000 and goodwill of RMB17,625,000 as selling, general and administrative expenses in its statement of comprehensive income as set out in Note 9 to the financial statements. The Company used the value-in-use method to assess the impairment and the key assumptions included the future market price of the coal, sales volume, and mining costs. The changes in these key assumptions that were applied in the impairment analysis were a decrease of the average coal price from AUD76 per tonne to AUD24 per tonne, a decrease in total sales volume from 141 million tonne to 58 million tonne, an increase in average nominal operating cost from AUD48 per tonne to AUD62 per tonne and an increase in capital expenditure from AUD460 million to AUD584 million. During the year, no provision for impairment losses were made for Premier and Wesfarmers Char by the Group.
In the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies, management has made the following accounting judgements:
Acquisitions
In 2013, the Group acquired a subsidiary and business as set out in note 43. The Group determined whether the acquisition are to be accounted for as acquisition of business or as acquisition of assets by reference to a number of factors including (i) whether the acquiree has relevant input, process or output; (ii) whether the acquire has planned principal activities or is pursuing a plan to produce output and will be able to obtain access to customers.
In addition, the management also made judgement to determine if the Group has taken control over the subsidiaries or assets acquired as from time to time, the registration of transfer of certain operating licences may not be changed immediately upon the payment of consideration.

12. INCOME TAXES—Continued
Note: The Australian Minerals Resources Rent Tax (“MRRT”) legislation was enacted on 19 March 2012 and effective from 1 July 2012. According to the relevant provisions of the MRRT tax laws, subsidiaries in Australia are required to determine the starting base allowance on the balance sheet. Book value or market value approach can be selected in calculating the starting base and subsequently amortize within the prescribed useful life. Market value approach was selected for mines in Australia. Under the market value approach, base value is determined based on market value of the coal mines on 1 May 2010 and amortize based on the shorter of the life of mining project, mining rights and mining production.
During 2013, the Australian Government released an exposure draft legislation which proposed to repeal the MRRT legislation. At December 31, 2013, the Australian Government had not passed the repeal legislation.
The total charge for the year can be reconciled to the profit per the consolidated income statement as follows:

YANZHOU COAL MINING COMPANY LIMITED AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
23. INTANGIBLE ASSETS—Continued
The Parent Company and the Company have entered into a mining rights agreement pursuant to which the Company has agreed to pay to the Parent Company, effective from September 25, 1997, an annual fee of RMB12,980,000 as compensation for the Parent Company’s agreement to give up the mining rights associated with the Xinglongzhuang coal mine, Baodian coal mine, Nantun coal mine, Dongtan coal mine and Jining II. The annual fee is subject to change after a ten-year period. Compensation fee of RMB5 per tonne of raw coal mined (2012: RMB145,235,000) for the year has been preliminary agreed and the revised compensation fees are to be settled with the government authority directly.
In 2012, the government authority finalized its assessment on the mining compensation fee and the Company is required to pay RMB2,476,780,000 for acquiring the aforesaid mining right, net off of the compensation fees paid and hence, RMB1,778,832,000 is recognised in mining reserves.
The mining rights (mining reserves) are amortized based on unit of production method.
The potash mineral exploration permit is reclassified to mining resources or mining reserves according to its progress of exploration. Technology has not yet reached the stage of commercial application and therefore is not amortized.
Water licenses are amortized over the life of mine. If the mining activities of the relevant locations have not yet been started and the connections to water sources have not been completed, no amortization will be provided.
Other intangible assets mainly represent computer software which is amortized on a straight line basis of 2.5 to 5 years over the useful life.
Amortization expense of the mining rights for the year of RMB1,304,972,000 (2012: RMB1,161,176,000) has been included in cost of sales and service provided. Amortization expense of other intangible assets for the year of RMB20,106,000 (2012: RMB16,419,000) has been included in selling, general and administrative expenses.
At December 31, 2013, intangible assets with a carrying amount of approximately RMB10,426,786,000 (2012: RMB1,960,908,000) have been pledged to secure the Group’s borrowings (note 35).
Given the continuing decease in coal price during the period, management performed impairment test for the Group’s intangible assets and concluded that the recoverable amount of cash generating units, Moolarben Coal Mine and Stradford Coal Mine were below its carrying amount. RMB2,052,238,000 impairment loss has been recognized accordingly. The recoverable amounts of the aforesaid cash generating units have been determined based on value in use, which has been calculated using a discounted cash flow model with an assumption of post-tax discount rate of 11% (2012:11%).

The recoverable amount of the Cash Generating Units is assessed by management at the operating segment level. Business performance is reviewed by management on a mine by mine basis and each mine is considered to be a separate cash generating unit.
The recoverable amounts of goodwill from each of the above cash generating units have been determined on the basis of value in use calculations. Value in use has been determined using a discounted cash flow model. The recoverable amounts are based on certain key assumptions on discount rates, growth rates, selling prices, foreign currency exchange rates, mining reserves and mining resources and direct cost.

YANZHOU COAL MINING COMPANY LIMITED AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
25. GOODWILL—Continued
In determining the value assigned to each key assumption, management has used external sources of information and utilised the expertise of external consultants and experts within the Group to validate entity specific assumptions such as mining reserves and mining resources. Furthermore, in estimating future coal prices, the Group receives long term forecast coal price data from multiple externally verifiable sources when determining its coal price forecasts, making adjustments for specific coal quality factors. The long term forecast exchange rate is based on externally verifiable sources. Production and capital costs are based on the Group’s estimate of forecasted geological conditions, stage of existing plant and equipment and future production levels. This information is obtained from internally maintained budgets, the five year business plan, life of mine models and project evaluations performed by the Group in its ordinary course of business.
The cash flow model was based on financial budgets approved by management covering a 5-year period with an assumption of post-tax discount rate of 8-11% (2012: 8-11%). It represent an estimate of the rate the market would apply having regard to the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Externally verifiable data received by the Group validates this assumption. The recoverable amount is also dependent on the life of mines (12 to 35 years). This is calculated based on the Group’s annual coal production forecast for each mine and mining reserves and mining resources. The cash flows beyond the 5-year period are extrapolated using a zero percent growth rate. Management believes that any reasonably possible change in any of these assumptions would not cause the carrying amount of each of the above units to exceed the recoverable amount of each of the above units. During the year ended 31 December 2013, the Group’s management determines that the discounted recoverable cash flows of above cash-generating unit is greater than the carrying amount and no impairment loss recognized on goodwill (2012: RMB17,625,000).
26. INVESTMENTS IN SECURITIES

The investments in equity securities listed on the SSE of the Company included Shanghai Shenergy Company Limited and Jiangsu Lianyungang Port Corporation Limited, stated at the fair value as at December 31, 2013 of RMB166,074,000 (2012: RMB161,328,000) and RMB6,781,000 (2012: RMB6,244,000) respectively.
The investments in equity securities listed on the SSE are carried at fair value determined according to the quoted market prices in active market.
The unlisted equity securities are stated at cost less impairment at each balance sheet date because the range of reasonable fair value estimates is so significant that the directors of the Company are of the opinion that their fair value cannot be measured reliably.

In November 2013, the Company’s subsidiary, Yancoal Australia, obtained two amendments to the loan agreement on future compliance for debt covenants in respect of certain bank borrowings amounting to RMB15,111 million (US$2,490 million) and RMB303.4 million (US$50 million), respectively, as of December 31, 2013. These bank borrowings, which amounted to RMB15,414.4 million, were classified as non-current as of December 31, 2013. The amendments were obtained without any consideration paid to the lenders. The relevant covenants of the two borrowings are identical and were required to be tested half-yearly, with an initial test date of December 31, 2013. The amendments obtained deferred the initial test date of the financial covenants to June 30, 2014 and reduced the interest cover ratio, and for the consolidated net worth covenant, to December 31, 2014.
The original covenants required Yancoal Australia to maintain the following as of and/or for the year ended December 31, 2013: (i) a gearing ratio not exceeding 0.9; (ii) interest cover ratio of not less than 1.5; and (iii) consolidated net worth not less than AUD2,000,000,000. Yancoal Australia believed that it could not meet the above debt covenants and requested advance waivers in November 2013. The financial position of Yancoal Australia as of and for the year ended December 31, 2013 did not meet the above debt covenants requirements if required. The actual covenants calculations as of and for the year ended December 31, 2013 as calculated from the annual financial statements of Yancoal Australia, which are prepared in accordance with the Australian Accounting Standards and also complied with IFRS, would have been: (i) a gearing ratio of 0.80; (ii) interest cover ratio of -5.75; and (iii) consolidated net worth of AUD1,212,460,000.
Under the amendments received from the lenders, the covenants have been revised as follows:
• | gearing ratio of Yancoal Australia will not exceed 0.90 on June 30, 2014 and 0.80 thereafter; |

As at December 31, 2013, the outstanding notional amount to buy EUR (sell United States dollars buy EUR) was approximately RMB100,000,000 (2012: RMB114,000,000) maturing within one year with forward rate at 0.731 (2012: 1.00013 to 1.00031).
The Company also entered into contracts with three banks to hedge a proportion of borrowings issued at variable interest rates through the use of floating-to-fixed interest rate swap contracts. As at December 31, 2013, the outstanding notional amount was approximately RMB6,097,000,000 (USD1,000,000,000) (2012: RMB6,285,000,000), contract period of four years (2012: four years) at a hedge period of 3 months (2012: 3 months) with fixed rate of approximately 2.75%, 2.42% and 2.41% (2012: approximately 2.75%, 2.42% and 2.41% respectively) and floating rate as LIBOR + 0.75% (2012: LIBOR + 0.75%). The non-current portion of the derivatives is not material and is included in current portion. Cash flows and any impact to profit or loss arising from the above use of floating-to-fixed interest rate swap contracts are expected to occur within each hedge period of 3 months over the contract period.
For the year ended December 31, 2013, the ineffective hedging portion of the changes in fair values of the forward foreign exchange contracts of approximately RMB39,700,000 (2012: RMB20,400,000) was recognized as selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated income statement. The effective hedging portion was recognized as current portion of derivatives financial instruments in the consolidated balance sheet.
The fair values of the forward foreign exchange contracts are estimated based on the discounted cash flows between the contract forward rate and spot forward rate. The fair values of the interest rate swap contracts are estimated based on the discounted cash flows between the contract floating rate and the contract fixed rate.
In addition, the Australian subsidiaries’ USD bank loan repayments in a six-month period are designated to hedge the forecast USD sales during the same period.

At the balance sheet date, the Group has unused tax losses of RMB17,491 million (2012: RMB5,930 million) contributed by the subsidiaries available for offset against future profits. RMB2,366 million deferred tax asset has been recognized (2012: RMB1,138 million) for such tax losses. No deferred tax asset has been recognized in respect of the RMB9,605 million (2012: RMB2,134 million) due to the unpredictability of future profit streams. Included in unrecognized tax losses are losses of RMB357 million that will expire in 2014, losses of RMB517 million that will expire in 2015, loss of RMB282 million that will expire in 2016 and losses of RMB680 million that will expire in 2017 (2012: losses of RMB298 million that will expire in 2013, losses of RMB357 million that will expire in 2014, losses of RMB517 million that will expire in 2015 and losses of RMB282 million that will expire in 2016). Other losses may be carried forward indefinitely.
By reference to financial budgets, management believes that there will be sufficient future profits for the realization of deferred tax assets which have been recognized in respect of tax losses.

The Company has completed the implementation of the share reform plan on April 3, 2006 and 2,600,000,000 the non-tradable legal person shares held by the Parent Company become tradable shares. The Parent Company guaranteed that it would not trade these shares in the market within 48 months from that day. On September, 2013, all the commitment made by the Parent Company as part of the share reform plan was fulfilled. The application for the right of shares trading in the market was approved by local legislation, and hence those shares held by the Parent Company are tradable in the market.

No further transfer to the reform specific development fund is required from January 1, 2008.
In accordance with the regulations of the State Administration of Work Safety, the Company has a commitment to incur RMB8 (Shanxi Tianchi: RMB50, Xintai and Ordos: increased from RMB7 to RMB15 from February 1, 2012 onwards) for each tonne of raw coal mined from May 1, 2004 which will be used for enhancement of safety production environment and improvement of facilities (“Work Safety Cost”). From February 1, 2012 onwards, the work safety cost increased to RMB15 per tonne. In prior years, the work safety expenditures are recognized only when acquiring the fixed assets or incurring other work safety expenditures. The Company, Heze, Shanxi Tianchi, Xintai and Ordos make appropriation to the future development fund in respect of unutilized Work Safety Cost from 2008 onwards.
In accordance with the regulations of the State Administration of Work Safety, the Company’s subsidiaries, Hua Ju Energy, Shanxi Tianhao and Yulin, have a commitment to incur Work Safety Cost at the rate of: 4% of the sales income for the year below RMB10 million; 2% of the actual sales income for the year between RMB10 million and RMB100 million (included); 0.5% of the actual sales income for the year between RMB100 million and RMB1 billion (included); 0.2% of the actual sales income for the year above RMB1 billion. The unutilized Work Safety Cost at December 31, 2013 was RMB1,298,554,000 (2012: RMB1,019,799,000).
Statutory Common Reserve Fund
The Company and its subsidiaries in the PRC have to set aside 10% of its profit for the statutory common reserve fund (except where the fund has reached 50% of its registered capital). The statutory common reserve fund can be used for the following purposes:
• | to make good losses of the previous years; or |
• | to convert into capital, provided such conversion is approved by a resolution at a shareholders’ general meeting and the balance of the statutory common reserve fund does not fall below 25% of the registered capital. |
Retained earnings
In accordance with the Company’s Articles of Association, the profit for the purpose of appropriation will be deemed to be the lesser of the amounts determined in accordance with (i) PRC accounting standards and regulations and (ii) IFRS or the accounting standards of the places in which its shares are listed.
The Company can also create a discretionary reserve in accordance with its Articles of Association or pursuant to resolutions which may be adopted at a meeting of shareholders.
The Company’s distributable reserve as at December 31, 2013 is the retained earnings computed under IFRS which amounted to approximately RMB26,492,774,000 (At December 31, 2012: RMB23,482,750,000 (restated)).

41. CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Group will be able to continue as a going concern while maximizing the return to shareholders through the optimization of the debt and equity balance. The Group’s overall strategy remains unchanged from prior year.
The capital structure of the Group consists of debt, which includes the borrowings disclosed in note 35 and equity attributable to equity holders of the Company, comprising issued share capital, reserves and retained earnings, and amounted to RMB95,753,689,000 (2012: RMB86,526,416,000 (restated)) as at December 31, 2013.
The directors of the Company review the capital structure regularly. As part of this review, the directors of the Company assess the annual budget prepared by the accounting and treasury department and consider and evaluate the cost of capital and the risks associated with each class of capital. The Group will balance its capital structure through the payment of dividends, issue of new shares and new debts or the repayment of existing debts.

Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group.
At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk which will cause a financial loss to the Group arising from the failure to perform their obligations in relation to each class of recognized financial assets is the carrying amount of those assets as stated in the consolidated balance sheet.
In order to minimise the credit risk, the management of the Group has delegated a team responsible for determination of credit limits, credit approvals and other monitoring procedures to ensure that follow-up action is taken to recover overdue debts. In addition, the Group reviews the recoverable amount of each individual trade debt at each balance sheet date to ensure that adequate impairment losses are made for irrecoverable amounts. In this regard, the directors of the Company consider that the Group’s credit risk is significantly reduced.
The Group maintains its cash and cash equivalents with reputable banks and Yankuang Group Finance Group Company Limited (see note 27). Therefore, the directors consider that the credit risk for such is minimal.
The Group generally grants the customers with long-relationship credit terms not exceeding 180 days, depending on the situations of the individual customers. For small to medium sized new customers, the Group generally requires them to pay for the products before delivery.
Most of the Group’s domestic sales are sales to electric power plants, metallurgical companies, construction material producers and railway companies. The Group generally has established long-term and stable relationships with these companies. The Group also sells its coal to provincial and city fuel trading companies.
As the Group’s PRC operation does not currently have direct export rights, all of its export sales must be made through National Coal Corporation, Shanxi Coal Corporation or Minmetals Trading. The qualities, prices and final customer destinations of the Group’s export sales are determined by the Group, National Coal Corporation, Shanxi Coal Corporation or Minmetals Trading.
For the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, net sales to the Group’s five largest customers accounted for approximately 16.5%, 19.4% and, 19.4% respectively, of the Group’s total revenue. Net sales to the Group’s largest customer accounted for 5.8%, 6.3%, and 8.5% of the Group’s net revenue for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 respectively. The Group’s largest customer was Huadian Power International Corporation Limited (“Huadian”) for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011.

Market risk
(i) Currency risk
The Group’s sales are denominated mainly in the functional currency of the relevant group entity making the sale, whilst costs are mainly denominated in the group entity’s functional currency. Accordingly, there is no significant exposure to foreign currency risk.

Sensitivity analysis
The Group is mainly exposed to the fluctuation against the currency of United States Dollar.
The following table details the Group’s sensitivity to a 5% increase and decrease in RMB against relevant foreign currencies. 5% represents management’s assessment of reasonably possible changes in foreign exchange rates over the period until the next annual balance sheet date. The sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items and adjusts their translation at the year end for a 5% change in foreign currency rates and also assumes all other risk variables remained constant. The sensitivity analysis includes loans to foreign operations within the Group where the denomination of the loan is in a currency other than the functional currency of the lender or the borrower.

Notes:
(i) | This is mainly attributable to the exposure of the Group’s outstanding bank deposit and loans denominated in USD. |
(ii) | This is mainly attributable to the exposure of the Group’s outstanding foreign currency bank borrowings and derivative financial instruments denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the borrower. |
In management’s opinion, the sensitivity analysis is unrepresentative of the inherent foreign exchange risk as the year end exposure does not reflect the exposure during the year.
(ii) Interest rate risk
The Group is exposed to cash flow interest rate risk in relation to variable-rate bank balances, term deposits, restricted cash (note 17) and variable rate borrowings (note 35).
The interest rate hedging policy of the Group is disclosed in note 36.
The Group’s exposures to interest rate risk on financial assets and financial liabilities are detailed in the liquidity risk section of this note. The Group’s cash flow interest rate risk is mainly concentrated on the fluctuation of the PBOC arising from the Group’s RMB borrowings and the LIBOR arising from the Group’s foreign currencies borrowings.

(iii) Other price risk
In addition to the above risks relating to financial instruments, the Group is exposed to equity price risk through investment in listed equity securities and also to price risk in non financial instruments such as steel and metals (the Group’s major raw materials). The Group currently does not have any arrangement to hedge the price risk exposure of its investment in equity securities and its purchase of raw materials. The Group’s exposure to equity price risk through investment in listed equity securities and also the result of the sensitivity analysis is not significant.

Liquidity risk
In the management of the liquidity risk, the Group monitors and maintains a level of cash and cash equivalents deemed adequate by the management to finance the Group’s operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows. The management monitors the utilization of bank borrowings and ensures compliance with loan covenants.
The following table details the Group’s remaining contractual maturity for its financial liabilities. For non-derivative financial liabilities, the table has been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Group can be required to pay.

42c. Fair values
The fair value of available-for-sales investment is determined with reference to quoted market price. The fair values of the forward foreign exchange contracts are estimated based on the discounted cash flows between the contract forward rate and spot forward rate. The fair values of interest rate swap contracts are estimated based on the discounted cash flows between the contract floating rate and contract fixed rate. The fair value of other financial assets and financial liabilities are determined in accordance with generally accepted pricing models based on discounted cash flow analysis.
The directors consider that the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded at amortized cost in the consolidated financial statements approximate their fair values.
Fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities are determined as follows:
The following table presents the carrying value of financial instruments measured at fair value across the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. The levels of fair value are defined as follows:
Level 1: | fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities; | |
Level 2: | fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and | |
Level 3: | fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the assets or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). |

45. ACQUISITION OF GLOUCESTER—Continued
Bargain purchase arises because the consideration (number of shares to be issued) was fixed when the merger proposal was announced. Upon the date of completion, the market capitalization and the market price of shares dropped and hence the total consideration paid were less than the fair value of net identifiable assets acquired because there is no mechanism to adjust the number of shares to be issued.
During the period from the acquisition date to December 31, 2012, Gloucester have contributed a total revenue of RMB1,658 million and an operating loss of RMB387 million.
If the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2012, the consolidated revenue and net profit of the Group for the year ended December 31, 2012 would have been RMB59,839 million and RMB4,846 million respectively. The proforma financial information is for illustrative purpose only and does not necessarily reflect the Group’s revenue and operating results if the acquisition has been completed by January 1, 2012 and could not serve as a basis for the forecast of future operation result.
The valuation of the shares issued by Yancoal Australia and the CVR are stated at market value.
