Inventories
Inventories of the Group increased by 37 percent, which is in line with business growth. The Group’s further shift to in-
house manufacturing during the year also resulted in the increase in raw materials and service parts.
Trade receivables and Notes receivable
Trade receivables and notes receivable increased in line with the increase in activities during the year.
Derivative financial assets/liabilities
Derivatives relate to foreign currency forward contracts that are designated as hedges for the fair value of recognized
assets or liabilities or a firm commitment, or of highly probable forecast transactions. Derivatives are initially recognized
at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at their fair values.
Deposits, prepayments and other receivables
Majority of other receivables of the Group are amounts due from subcontractors for part components sold in the
ordinary course of business. Included in prepayments are in-transit product shipments to customers by which the
Group defers the cost of shipped products awaiting revenue recognition until the goods are delivered and revenue is
recognized.
