§3 SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

 

3.1 Significant changes in the major items of the accounting statements and the key financial indicators of the Company and the underlying reasons

 

RApplicable Not applicable

 

The items experiencing more than 30% change in the balance sheet and the relevant reasons were: held-for-trading financial liabilities decreased by 32.43% as compared with the beginning of the period as a result of the reduction in fair value of the liability portion of jet fuel and interest rate derivative contracts; bills payable decreased by 46.25% as compared with the beginning of the period due to payment of bills payable in due and there being no additional bills payable during the period; minority interests soared by 1659.16%, mainly due to the establishment of a non-wholly owned subsidiary during the period.

 

Change of more than 30% in income statement items for the period were mainly due to the effect of the consolidation of Shenzhen Airlines. If such effect was excluded, the factors causing more than 30% change in income statement items were: finance expenses decreased by 226.40% over the corresponding period of the previous year as a result of an increase of RMB543 million in net exchange gain; gains and losses arising from fair value changes decreased by 91.50% over the corresponding period of the previous year as a result of the sharp decrease in changes of fair value as compared with the corresponding period of the previous year; minority interest soared by 2283.03% over the corresponding period of the previous year, mainly attributable to the improved earnings of the non-wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company, during the reporting period as compared with the corresponding period of the previous year.

 

3.2 Analysis and explanation on the progress of significant events and their impact and resolutions
