2013 Interim Report
ZHEJIANG EXPRESSWAY CO., LTD.
2013 Interim Report
Seizing Opportunities and March Forward
In the first half of 2013, China's economy remained stable, the economy of Zhejiang Province and foreign trade
continued to pick up, and the trading volume in the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock markets recovered. Against this
background, Zhejiang Expressway seized opportunities to drive business growth and boost business income as well
as profits. During the Period, the Group completed the acquisition of a 76.55% equity interest in the Jinhua
Section of the Ningbo-Jinhua Expressway, which has already contributed toll income to the Group. In addition, the
IPO application for the listing of Zheshang Securities in the A share market has been accepted by the China
Securities Regulatory Commission, and is on the waiting list for IPOs.
Looking forward to the second half of the year, we will continue to initiate actions to promote healthy business
development, reduce costs and enhance efficiency. We will also generate strategic synergies with our parent
company by seeking suitable investment projects, nurturing management capabilities in our diversified businesses
and utilizing our advantage in financial resources to expand the space for future development and to improve
profitability.

Business Review
The rate of growth in the Chinese economy has slowed down in 2013 as a result of the slow recovery of the global
economy and the domestic policy to maintain steady growth and undergo structural adjustment. In the first half of
the year, China's GDP grew 7.6% year-on-year, while economic growth was down 0.1 percentage point from the first
quarter of 2013. Zhejiang Province, which saw its economy begin to stabilize and pick up in the second half of
2012, continued to grow steadily in the first half of the year. The province's GDP grew 8.3% year- on-year during
the Period, an increase the same as that of the first quarter of the year.
Benefiting from steady growth in the economy of Zhejiang Province as well as the recovery in foreign trade in the
province, the Group's income increased by 6.3% comparing with the same period last year, amounting to a total of
Rmb3,759.66 million. Of this income, Rmb1,987.14 million was generated from the three major expressways owned and
operated by the Group, representing an increase of 4.2% when compared with the same period in 2012 and accounting
for 52.9% of total income. Rmb1,016.65 million was generated from the Group's toll road- related businesses,
representing a slight decline of 2.0% when compared with the same period in 2012 and accounting for 27.0% of total
income. The securities business contributed an income of Rmb755.88 million to the Group, representing an increase
of 27.4% when compared with the same period in 2012 and accounting for 20.1% of total income.
A breakdown of the Group's income for the Period is set out below:

Toll Road Operations
A higher level of organic growth was maintained in the traffic volume of the Group's Shanghai-Hangzhou-Ningbo
Expressway and Shangsan Expressway during the Period as a result of apparent signs of stable growth in Zhejiang's
economy in the first half of the year. Although the organic growth in the traffic volume in the second quarter was
lower compared to the first quarter, it remained higher than in the fourth quarter last year.
The impact of the toll free policy on small passenger vehicles for the long holidays of Chinese New Year, Qingming
Festival and Labour Day during the Period led to a loss of approximately Rmb73 million in the Group's toll income.
Coupled with the impact of a number of negative factors such as the phasing out of the "Unified Toll Card" policy
early last year, the adjustment to the rounding off of the last figures for passenger vehicle tolls in mid-May and
the launch of the policy to adjust the classification of passenger vehicles in early August in the same year, the
Group's toll income suffered a loss of approximately Rmb169 million during the Period.
Meanwhile, following the implementation of the tolling policy based on actual travel routes in Zhejiang Province
on May 15, 2012, the Company has managed to increase its toll income by approximately Rmb69 million through the
implementation of a number of initiatives such as the marketing campaign on the tolling policy based on actual
travel routes, the fine-tuning of the toll-by-weight mechanism and the modification of weighing equipment. In
particular, the tolling policy based on actual travel routes had a larger positive impact on Shangsan Expressway,
and accordingly, the increase in toll income from Shangsan Expressway was higher than that from
Shanghai-Hangzhou-Ningbo Expressway during the Period.
Near the end of the Period, the Group completed the acquisition of a 76.55% equity interest in Zhejiang Jinhua
Yongjin Expressway Co., Ltd. ("Jinhua Co", which owns and operates the 69.7km Jinhua Section of the Ningbo-Jinhua
Expressway). During the Period, construction work on some bridges on S211 Provincial Road, which runs parallel to
the Ningbo-Jinhua Expressway, led to an increase in the number of vehicles rerouted to some parts of the Jinhua
Section of the Ningbo-Jinhua Expressway, while the continued traffic congestion on the roads in some areas of
Yiwu prompted a large number of local short-distance vehicles to switch to the nearby Jinhua Section of the
Ningbo-Jinhua Expressway. Moreover, benefiting from the rapid growth in import and export trade in Jinhua, the
traffic volume of large trucks and container trucks increased significantly on a year-on-year basis during the
Period.
Average daily traffic volume in full-trip equivalents along the Group's Shanghai-Hangzhou-Ningbo Expressway was
43,273 during the Period, representing an increase of 3.4% year-on-year. In particular, average daily traffic
volume in full-trip equivalents along the Shanghai-Hangzhou Section of the Shanghai-Hangzhou-Ningbo Expressway
was 43,636, representing an increase of 2.4% year-on-year, and that along the Hangzhou-Ningbo Section was 43,005,
representing an increase of 4.2% year-on-year. Average daily traffic volume in full-trip equivalents along the
Shangsan Expressway was 17,397 during the Period, representing an increase of 2.3% year-on-year. Average daily
traffic volume in full-trip equivalents along the Jinhua Section of the Ningbo-Jinhua Expressway was 12,993
during the Period, representing an increase of 10.4% year-on-year.
Total toll income from the 248km Shanghai-Hangzhou-Ningbo Expressway, the 142km Shangsan Expressway and the 70km
Jinhua Section of the Ningbo-Jinhua Expressway amounted to Rmb1,987.14 million during the Period, representing an
increase of 4.2% year-on-year. Toll income from the Shanghai-Hangzhou-Ningbo Expressway amounted to Rmb1,502.45
million, representing an increase of 3.1% year-on-year; toll income from the Shangsan Expressway amounted to
Rmb359.20 million, representing an increase of 6.0% year-on-year; while toll income from the Jinhua Section of
the Ningbo-Jinhua Expressway amounted to Rmb125.49 million, representing an increase of 11.8% year-on-year.
Toll Road-Related Business Operations
The Company operates certain toll road-related businesses along its expressways through its subsidiaries and
associated companies, including gas stations, restaurants and shops in service areas, as well as a roadside
advertising business.
During the Period, there was a decline in operating income due to the closure of the Yuyao Service Area from June
last year for an expansion project, which commenced service only in March this year, and for which the gas station
resumed full operations only from May 30 this year. This also had an impact on sales of refined oil products in
the service area, resulting in a year-on-year decline in overall income. During the Period, income from toll
road-related operations amounted to Rmb1,016.65 million, representing a decrease of 2.0% year-on-year.
Securities Business
During the Period, the aggregate trading volume of the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock exchanges rose by 22.8%
year-on-year as a result of the recovery in the Chinese stock market. Despite the year-on-year decline in the
market share of Zheshang Securities Co., Ltd. ("Zheshang Securities", a 70.83% owned subsidiary of Zhejiang
Shangsan Expressway Co., Ltd. ("Shangsan Co", a subsidiary of the Company)), a sizable year-on-year increase was
registered in commission income during the Period. Benefitting from an increase in trading volume in the stock
market and a slight rebound in the commission rate, there were year-on-year increases in income to varying
degrees across Zheshang Securities' securities brokerage business, investment banking and asset management
businesses during the Period.
To cope with uncertainties during the current recovery in the stock market, Zheshang Securities is taking measures
to gradually adjust its current business pattern dominated by the brokerage business, and vigorously improving
its income and profit structures to boost the comprehensive development of its various businesses by stepping up
the innovation of its businesses. Meanwhile, in order to speed up the process of its listing on the Shanghai
Stock Exchange, Zheshang Securities has submitted an IPO application which was accepted by the China Securities
Regulatory Commission on May 2, 2013 and is officially admitted into the waiting list for IPOs.
During the Period, Zheshang Securities realized income of Rmb755.88 million, an increase of 27.4% year-on- year.
Of this income, brokerage commission income amounted to Rmb579.08 million, a year-on-year increase of 28.6%, and
interest income from the securities business amounted to Rmb176.80 million, a year-on-year increase of 23.4%.
Moreover, securities investment gains from Zheshang Securities accounted for in the condensed consolidated
statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income amounted to Rmb73.49 million during the Period.
Long-Term Investments
Zhejiang Expressway Petroleum Development Co., Ltd. (a 50% owned associate company of the Company) benefited from
a growth in the sales of refined oil products during the Period, the associate company realized an income of
Rmb3,085.49 million, representing an increase of 6.1% year-on-year. During the Period, net profit amounted to
Rmb11.34 million (same period in 2012: net profit of Rmb10.18 million).
JoinHands Technology Co., Ltd. ("JoinHands Technology", a 27.582%-owned associate company of the Company)
generated its income primarily from its property leasing activities, and the associate company did not make any
significant improvements to its operations during the Period. The Company has instituted legal proceedings with
regard to the transfer of the equity interest in the associated company and separately lodged an appeal against
the subsequent judgement thereon. On April 28, 2013, the Hangzhou Intermediate People's Court ruled in favour of
the Company in its final judgement which is to be executed after the court conducts an evaluation of the assets
of the associated company.
Shengxin Expressway Co., Ltd. ("Shengxin Co", a 50% owned joint venture of the Company) operates the 73.4km
Shaoxing section of the Ningbo-Jinhua Expressway. During the Period, the improving provincial economy led the
traffic volume on that section to pick up. The average daily traffic volume in full-trip equivalents along that
section was 12,318 vehicles, representing an increase of 2.26% year-on-year and generating a toll income of
Rmb141.22 million. Due to its heavy financial burden, a loss of Rmb27.88 million was recorded in the current
Period.
On March 30, 2013, the Company entered into a capital increase agreement with Zhejiang Communications Investment
Group Finance Co., Ltd. ("Zhejiang Communications Finance") and its existing shareholders, pursuant to which the
Company has conditionally agreed to make a capital contribution of Rmb280 million in cash to the equity capital
of Zhejiang Communications Finance, thereby enabling the Company to own a 35% equity interest in Zhejiang
Communications Finance. Earnings from the associated company were accounted for as share of gain of associates of
the Company from May 1, 2013, and Zhejiang Communications Finance realised profit of Rmb26.05 million from May 1,
2013 to the end of the Period.
Human Resources
During the Period, the Company actively revamped its human resource management, improved its remuneration and
performance policy, and promoted the pegging of overall remuneration increase with the productivity of employees,
thereby paving the way for increasing employees' remuneration. There was no significant change in other staff
matters and assignment compared with the details disclosed in the Company's most recent annual report.
Financial Analysis
The Group adopts a prudent financial policy with an aim to provide shareholders of the Company with sound returns
over the long term.
During the Period, profit attributable to owners of the Company was approximately Rmb930.39 million, representing
an increase of 6.9% year-on-year, return on owners' equity was 6.1%, representing an increase of 8.9%

During the Period, capital expenditure of the Group totaled Rmb1,140.03 million, while capital expenditure of the

Contingent liabilities and pledge of assets
As at June 30, 2013, Zhejiang Yuhang Expressway Co., Ltd. (a 51% owned subsidiary of the Company) provided a
property under construction as a mortgaged asset for its domestic commercial bank loan of Rmb100.00 million. The
carrying amount of the mortgaged asset was Rmb306.51 million. Besides, Jinhua Co provided the operating right of
its expressway as pledged asset for its domestic commercial bank loans of Rmb870.00 million. The carrying amount
of the pledged asset was Rmb1,933.30 million.
Except for the above, as at June 30, 2013, the Group did not have any other contingent liabilities, pledge of
assets or guarantees.
Foreign exchange exposure
Save for dividend payments to the holders of H shares in Hong Kong dollars, the Group's principal operations were
transacted and booked in Renminbi. Therefore, the Group's exposure to exchange fluctuation is limited. During the
Period, the Group has not used any financial instruments for hedging purpose.
Although the Directors do not foresee any material foreign exchange risks for the Group, there is no assurance
that foreign exchange risks will not affect the operating results of the Group in the future.
Outlook
The overall performance of the Group's toll road operations is influenced by the macroeconomic and regional
economic development. Existing statistical figures suggest that although the economy of Zhejiang Province is
maintaining steady growth, it is subject to downward pressure and the growth rate is likely to decline in the
second half of the year. As a result, organic growth in the traffic volume of the Group's expressways is expected
to slow down in the second half.
Meanwhile, the Jiaxing-Shaoxing Expressway, which opened to traffic on July 19, 2013, is expected to have a slight
diversion impact on the Group's Shanghai-Hangzhou-Ningbo Expressway. Since the Jiaxing-Shaoxing Expressway is
currently not yet open to trucks, the positive, favourable effect has not yet been fully reflected on the Group's
Shangsan Expressway. The opening of the Jiaxing-Shaoxing Expressway will cause a slight fall in the Group's
overall toll income for the whole year.
The Company's management is undertaking various measures to further increase income from its principal business.
By increasing income and plugging loopholes, the Company aims to step up marketing initiatives for newly opened
expressways such as Jiaxing-Shaoxing Expressway to attract more vehicles to use sections of expressways operated
by the Group. Meanwhile, the Group will cut the loss of toll income by taking special measures against a small
number of toll-evading trucks.
Moreover, both the uncertainty over the recovery of the Chinese stock market and the need for China to make
appropriate modifications to its monetary policy have presented new challenges and opportunities for Zheshang
Securities, prompting Zheshang Securities to accelerate the development of innovative businesses and to further
push forward the A-share listing process whilst strengthening cost control and risk control for facilitating the
sustainable development of its businesses.
In addition to continuing to strengthen its principal toll road operations, the Group is also actively engaging
in the development of toll road-related businesses with the acquisition of the franchise to operate two pairs of
service areas of expressways in Ningbo area in early August this year. In addition to the improvement of the
Group's securities and financial business, the Group's management will also seek to generate strategic synergies
with its parent company by seeking suitable investment projects, nurturing management capabilities in its
diversified businesses and utilizing its financial resources advantage to expand the space for future development
and improving profitability.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Basis of Preparation
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the applicable disclosure
requirements set out in Appendix 16 to the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of
Hong Kong Limited (the "Listing Rules") and with Hong Kong Accounting Standard 34 ("HKAS 34") "Interim Financial
Reporting".
2. Merger Accounting Restatement
During the Period, the Group has acquired the remaining 76.55% equity interest in Zhejiang Jinhua Yongjin
Expressway Co., Ltd. ("Jinhua Co"), of which 66.283% equity interest was acquired from Zhejiang Communications
Investment Group Co., Ltd ("Communications Group"). Since Communications Group is the parent company of the
Company, this transaction was regarded as business combination involving entities under common control and was
accounted for using merger accounting method, in accordance with the guidance set out in Accounting Guideline 5
"Merger Accounting for Common Control Combinations" issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public
Accountants (the "HKICPA"). As a result, the comparative condensed consolidated statement of profit or loss and
other comprehensive income and condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the period ended June 30, 2012
and the consolidated statement of financial position as at December 31, 2012 have therefore been restated, in
order to include the losses, assets and liabilities of the combining entities since the date on which they first
come under common control.
The adopting of merger accounting method has resulted in a decrease in total comprehensive income attributable to
owners of the Company and a decrease in profit attributable to owners of the Company for the period ended June 30,
2012 by Rmb21,618,000 and Rmb21,618,000, respectively.
The effect of the merger accounting restatement described above on the condensed consolidated statement of profit
or loss and other comprehensive income for the six months ended June 30, 2012 by line items is as follows:

3. Principal Accounting Policy
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for certain
financial instruments that are measured at fair value, as appropriate.
Except as described below, the accounting policies applied in the condensed consolidated financial statements for
the Period are consistent with those in the preparation of the Group's annual financial statements for the year
ended December 31, 2012.
Merger accounting for business combination involving entities under common control
The condensed consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements items of the combining
entities or businesses in which the common control combination occurs as if they had been combined from the date
when the combining entities or businesses first came under the control of the controlling party.
The net assets of the combining entities or businesses are consolidated using the existing book values from the
controlling party's perspective. No amount is recognised in respect of goodwill or excess of acquirer's interest
in the net fair value of acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over cost at the
time of common control combination, to the extent of the continuation of the controlling party's interest.
The condensed consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income includes the results of
each of the combining entities or businesses from the earliest date presented or since the date when the
combining entities or businesses first came under the common control, where this is a shorter period, regardless
of the date of the common control combination.
The comparative amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements are presented as if the entities or
businesses had been combined at the end of the previous reporting period or when they first came under common
control, whichever is shorter.
During the Period, the Group has applied, for the first time, the following new and revised Hong Kong Financial
Reporting Standards ("HKFRSs") issued by HKICPA, which are effective for the Period. Except for the following,
the application of the other new and revised HKFRSs in the current interim period had no material impact on the
condensed consolidated financial statements and (or) relevant disclosures set out in these condensed consolidated
financial statements.
Impact of the application of HKFRS 11
HKFRS 11 replaces HKAS 31 Interests in Joint Ventures, and the guidance contained in a related interpretation,
HK(SIC) -- Int 13 Jointly Controlled Entities -- Non-Monetary Contributions by Venturers, has been incorporated
in HKAS 28 (as revised in 2011). HKFRS 11 deals with how a joint arrangement of which two or more parties have
joint control should be classified and accounted for. Under HKFRS 11, there are only two types of joint
arrangements -- joint operations and joint ventures. The classification of joint arrangements under HKFRS 11 is
determined based on the rights and obligations of parties to the joint arrangements by considering the structure,
the legal form of the arrangements, the contractual terms agreed by the parties to the arrangement, and, when
relevant, other facts and circumstances. A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have
joint control of the arrangement (i.e. joint operators) have rights to the assets, and obligations for the
liabilities, relating to the arrangement. A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have
joint control of the arrangement (i.e. joint venturers) have rights to the net assets of the arrangement.
Previously, HKAS 31 had three types of joint arrangements -- jointly controlled entities, jointly controlled
operations and jointly controlled assets. The classification of joint arrangements under HKAS 31 was primarily
determined based on the legal form of the arrangement (i.e. a joint arrangement that was established through a
separate entity was classified as a jointly controlled entity).
The initial and subsequent accounting of joint ventures and joint operations are different. Investments in joint
ventures are accounted for using the equity method (proportionate consolidation is no longer allowed).
Investments in joint operations are accounted for such that each joint operator recognises its assets (including
its share of any assets jointly held), its liabilities (including its share of any liabilities incurred jointly),
its revenue (including its share of revenue from the sale of the output by the joint operation) and its expenses
(including its share of any expenses incurred jointly). Each joint operator accounts for the assets and
liabilities, as well as revenues and expenses, relating to its interest in the joint operation in accordance with
the applicable standards. The directors of the Company reviewed and assessed the classification of the Group's
investment in joint arrangement in accordance with the requirements of HKFRS 11. The directors concluded that the
Group's interest in a jointly controlled entity under HKAS 31 should be classified as a joint venture under HKFRS
11. The application of HKFRS 11 has not had any material impact on the amount recognised in the Group's condensed
consolidated financial statements.
Amendments to HKAS 1 Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income
The amendments to HKAS 1 introduce new terminology for statement of comprehensive income and income statement.
Under the amendments to HKAS 1, a statement of comprehensive income is renamed as a statement of profit or loss
and other comprehensive income and an income statement is renamed as a statement of profit or loss. The
amendments to HKAS 1 retain the option to present profit or loss and other comprehensive income in either a
single statement or in two separate but consecutive statements. However, the amendments to HKAS 1 require
additional disclosures to be made in 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.
HKFRS 13 Fair value measurement
The Group has applied HKFRS 13 for the first time in the current interim period. HKFRS 13 establishes a single
source of guidance for and disclosures about, fair value measurement, and replaces those requirements previously
included in various HKFRSs. Consequential amendments have been made to HKAS 34 to require certain disclosures to
be made in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
The scope of the HKFRS 13 is broad, and applies to both financial instrument items and non-financial instrument
items for which other HKFRSs require or permit fair value measurements and disclosures about fair value
measurements, subject to a few exceptions. HKFRS 13 contains a new definition of "fair value" and defines fair
value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
transaction in principal (or most advantageous) market at the measurement date under current market conditions.
Fair value under HKFRS 13 is an exit price regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated
using another valuation technique. Also, HKFRS 13 includes extensive disclosure requirements.
In accordance with the transitional provisions of HKFRS 13, the Group has applied the fair value measurement and
disclosure requirements prospectively. The Group has provided these disclosures in accordance with the
consequential amendments of HKAS 34 in note 20. Other than the additional disclosures, the application of HKFRS
13 has not had any material impact on the amount recognised in the Group's condensed consolidated financial
statements.

at a fixed rate of 8.6% (December 31, 2012: 8.6%) per annum. The Group maintains a list of approved stocks for
margin lending at a specified loan to collateral ratio. Any excess in the lending ratio will trigger a margin
call which the customers have to make good of the shortfall. The Group has the right to process forced
liquidation if the customer fails to make good of the shortfall within a short period of time.

17. Financial Assets sold under Repurchase Agreements
Sales and repurchase agreements are transactions in which the Group sells a security and simultaneously agrees to
repurchase it (or an asset that is substantially the same) at a fixed price on a future date. Since the
repurchase prices are fixed, the Group are still exposed to substantially all the credit risks and market risks
and rewards of those securities sold. These securities are not derecognised but regarded as "collateral" for the
secured lending from these counterparties because the Group retains substantially all the risks and rewards of
these securities. In addition, the cash received is recognised as financial liability.
As at 30 June 2013, the Group entered into repurchase agreements with certain counterparties. The proceeds from
selling such securities are presented as financial assets sold under repurchase agreements. The cash advanced to
the Group carried interest at fixed rates ranging from 5.5% to 8.085% per annum. Because the Group sells the
contractual rights to the cash flows of the securities, it does not have the ability to use the transferred
securities during the term of the arrangement.
There was no financial assets sold under repurchase agreements for the year ended December 31, 2012.
18. Related Party Transactions and Balances
The following is a summary of the related party transactions during the Period occured in the Group's operating activities:
(i) Transactions and balances with government related parties
The Group operates in an economic environment currently predominated by entities directly or indirectly
owned or controlled by the PRC government ("government-related entities"). In addition, the Group itself is
part of a larger group of companies under the Communications Group which is controlled by the PRC
government. However, due to the business nature, in respect of the Group's toll road business, the
directors are of the opinion that it is impracticable to ascertain the identity of counterparties and
accordingly whether the transactions are with other government-related entities in the PRC. Details of
other significant transactions with government related parties are summarised below:
(a) Transactions with Communications Group
(1) On March 20, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with Communications Group pursuant to

capital of Zhejiang Communications Finance, by way of cash. Upon completion, the Company owned
35% equity interest in Zhejiang Communications Finance. As at the date of this report, the
contribution has been completed.
(3) Pursuant to the entrusted loan contracts entered into between Jinhua Co and Communications
Group on February 28, 2013, Communications Group agreed to provide Jinhua Co with entrusted

Investment Development Co., Ltd. ("Development Company"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Company, and Zhejiang Expressway Petroleum Development Co., Ltd. ("Petroleum Company") in
respect of the petrol stations in the service areas along Shanghai-Hangzhou-Ningbo and
Shangsan Expressways. Petroleum Company will have its expertise to assist Development Company
in running their petrol stations in service areas along Shanghai-Hangzhou-Ningbo and Shangsan

not be meaningful.
