The improved performance in 2013 is attributable to the following factors:
- a significant improvement in revenue quality due to strict control of receivables; - better customer service following customer visits to gain feedback;
- staffing optimisation coupled with efficient performance assessment, and improved operational procedures as well as the simplification of approval processes;
- efficient execution of the branch incentive system and an overall upgrade of technology; and - a general improvement in operational efficiency.
Labour costs have historically been Global Lock's largest expenditure and 2013 was no exception. Labour costs were up to RM 37.20m, accounting for 31.51% of the gross revenues, a percentage reduction of 2.1% compared with 2012 in which the labour costs were RM 30.03m accounting for 33.61% of the year's revenues.
The Company is currently undertaking construction of a Master Alarm Response Centre located in Shenzhen, which is designed to receive and handle alarms from all branches and issue instructions to guard patrols. It is anticipated that the centre will have the capacity to provide alarm response and processing services for more than 500,000 clients at the same time and this will result in cost savings. At the same time, alarm response efficiency is expected to improve through the use of a real time video monitoring system. Global Lock believes that the Master Alarm Response Centre will be one of the largest in China, integrating front-end terminal alarm/monitoring servers, detectors, cameras and patrol guard intelligent terminals, back-end automatic command & control and video analysis system, cloud computing, data storage system, financial management system and client management systems to create a fully integrated platform. Supported by the Master Alarm Response Centre, data applications will be developed utilising intelligent video analysis of user behaviour which open the possibilities of future revenue streams.

1.2 Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU (together, "IFRS"). These financial statements are for the year ended 31 December 2013.
New IFRS standards and interpretations newly adopted
The Group has adopted the following new and amended IFRS standards and IFRIC interpretations:
-- Amendments to IAS 12 "Deferred tax: Recovery of Underlying Assets"; and -- Amendments to IAS 1 "Presentation of items of Other Comprehensive Income"
The adoption of these revised standards has not had a material impact for the Group's result for the year and equity
New IFRS standards and interpretations not yet adopted
The following standards, amendments and interpretations are not yet effective and have not yet been adopted early by the Group:

The management does not anticipate that the adoption of the above IFRS (including consequential amendments) and interpretations will result in any material impact to the financial statements in the period of initial application.
1.3 Going concern policy
Despite the Group is profitable, the Group had net current liabilities of RMB 8.5 m as at 31 December 2013. The Group has been monitored its cash flow and constantly negotiated with its creditors for acceptable trading terms and payment arrangements for its liabilities to ensure continuity in its operations. The directors and certain substantial shareholders have expressed their willingness to continue supporting the Group for the foreseeable future. They have also provided assurance that they will not call on their loans and the transaction with the directors are disclosed in Note 26.
Under the going concern assumption, an entity is ordinarily viewed as continuing in business for the foreseeable future with neither the necessity of liquidation, nor ceasing trading or seeking protection from creditors pursuant to laws or regulations. In assessing whether the going concern assumption is appropriate, management takes into account all available information for the foreseeable future, in particular for the twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements. Based on the budgets prepared, management have a reasonable expectation that the group has adequate resources to continue its operational exercises for the foreseeable future and the group has adopted the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the non-statutory financial statements.
1.3 Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and entities controlled by the Company (its subsidiaries). Control is achieved where the Company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an investee entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.
Non-controlling interests in the net assets of consolidated subsidiaries are identified separately from the Group's equity therein. Non-controlling interests consist of the amount of those interests at the date of the original business combination (see below) and the non-controlling interests' share of changes in equity since the date of the combination. Losses applicable to the minority in excess of the non-controlling interest in the subsidiary's equity are allocated against the interests of the Group except to the extent that the non-controlling interest has a binding obligation and is able to make an additional investment to cover the losses.
The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income from the effective date of acquisition or up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate.
Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring the accounting policies used into line with those used by the Group. All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated on consolidation.
The Group entered into the following agreements on 17 October 2010:
-- An Exclusive Technology Support Agreement between Global Lock Safety (Shenzhen) Limited ("Global Lock WFOE") and Shenzhen Global Lock Security System Engineering Co., Ltd ("Shenzhen Global Lock"), with a quarterly services fee of 20 to 25 per cent of total monthly operating revenues is payable by Shenzhen Global Lock to Global Lock WFOE on a quarterly basis. The condition requires Shenzhen Global Lock has profitability in the financial year in order to meet this obligation.
-- On 17 May 2013, Global Lock WFOE and Shenzhen Global Lock have agreed to vary the exclusive Technology Support Agreement with effect from 1 January 2012 so that instead of the service fee being calculated by reference to the operating revenue of Shenzhen Global Lock in any profitable quarter it will be 25 percent. Shenzhen Global Lock's profit before tax for the financial year in question.
-- Accordingly 75% of the net profit of Shenzhen Global Lock is attributable to the non-controlling interest in Shenzhen Global Lock.
-- A Business Operation Agreement between Global Lock WFOE and Shenzhen Global Lock and the shareholders of Shenzhen Global Lock (who are also the founder and controlling shareholders of the Company) under which Shenzhen Global Lock cannot carry out any activities which may affect its capital, personnel, obligations, rights or business operations. In addition, the Founder Shareholders grant Global Lock WFOE the rights to exercise their respective voting rights in Shenzhen Global Lock.
-- An Exclusive Option Agreement entered into between Global Lock WFOE, the Founder Shareholders and Shenzhen Global Lock, under which Global Lock WFOE has an exclusive option to purchase by itself or through a nominee, to the extent permitted by the laws of the PRC, all or any part of the equity interests of each Founder Shareholder in Shenzhen Global Lock. Each Founder Shareholder has agreed that Shenzhen Global Lock will accept payment from Global Lock WFOE on their behalf and that the payment received shall be a loan to Shenzhen Global Lock to be used for the business operations of Shenzhen Global Lock.
-- An Exclusive Sales Agreement entered into by Shenzhen Global Lock and Global Lock WFOE, under which, Global Lock WFOE is allowed to sell the various antitheft systems and ancillary products of Shenzhen Global Lock, exclusively within the territories and period as agreed between the parties.
-- An Equity Pledge Agreement entered into between Global Lock WFOE, Shenzhen Global Lock and the Founder Shareholders under which the Founder Shareholders have pledged their respective equity interests in Shenzhen Global Lock to Global Lock WFOE as security for the protection of the rights of Global Lock WFOE under the Exclusive Technology Support Agreements, the Business Operation Agreement, the Exclusive Option Agreement and the Exclusive Sales Agreement referred to above (the "Contractual Arrangements"). In addition, the Founder Shareholders have agreed not to transfer, sell, pledge, dispose or create any encumbrance over their equity interests in Shenzhen Global Lock.
The Group, through these contractual agreements, gained control of Shenzhen Global Lock on that date.
In determining the appropriate accounting treatment for this transaction, the Directors considered IFRS 3 "Business Combinations" (Revised 2008). However, they concluded that this transaction fell outside the scope of IFRS 3 (revised 2008) since the transaction described above represents a combination of entities under common control as the same group of individuals acting in concert were shareholders of Shenzhen Global Lock as well as the controlling shareholders of the Company
In accordance with IAS 8 "Accounting Policies, changes in accounting estimates and errors", in developing an appropriate accounting policy, the Directors have considered the pronouncements of other standard setting bodies and specifically looked to accounting principles generally accepted in the United Kingdom ("UK GAAP") for guidance (FRS 6 - Acquisitions and mergers) which does not conflict with IFRS and reflects the economic substance of the transaction.
Under UK GAAP, the assets and liabilities of both entities are recorded at book value, not fair value (although adjustments are made to achieve uniform accounting policies), intangible assets and contingent liabilities are recognised only to the extent that they were recognised by the legal acquiree in accordance within applicable IFRS, no goodwill is recognised, any expenses of the combination are written off immediately to the income statement and comparative amounts, if applicable, are restated as if the combination had taken place at the beginning of the earliest accounting period presented.
Therefore, although the Group reconstruction did not become unconditional until 17 October 2010, these consolidated financial statements are presented as if the Group structure has always been in place, including the activity from incorporation of the group's principal trading subsidiary. Both entities had the same management as well as majority shareholders.
Business combinations
The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. The cost of the acquisition is measured at the aggregate of the fair values, at the date of exchange, of assets given, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity instruments issued by the Group in exchange for control of the acquiree, plus any costs directly attributable to the business combination. The acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities that meet the conditions for recognition under IFRS 3: Business Combinations are recognised at their fair value at the acquisition date, except for non-current assets (or disposal groups) that are classified as held for sale in accordance with IFRS 5: Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations, which are recognised and measured at fair value less costs to sell.
Goodwill arising on acquisition is recognised as an asset and initially measured at cost, being the excess of the cost of the business combination over the Group's interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities recognised. If, after reassessment, the Group's interest in the net fair value of the acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities exceed the cost of the business combination, the excess is recognised immediately in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
Non-controlling interests that are present ownership interest 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 recognised amounts of the acquiree's identifiable net assets. The choice of measurement basis is made on a transaction-by-transaction basis. Other types of non-controlling interests are measured at fair value, when applicable, on the basis specified in another IFRS.
1.4 Intangible assets (a) Patent rights
Patent rights acquired are initially recognised at cost and are subsequently carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. These costs are amortised to the income statement using the straight-line method over 14.6 years, which is the shorter of the remaining useful life and periods of contractual rights. The remaining useful life of 14.6 years of the 20 years patent is calculated from the date the patent was transferred to the Group on 1 August 2009.
(b) Research and development expenditure
Research expenditure is recognised as an expense as incurred.
Costs incurred on development projects are recognised as internally generated intangible assets only if all of the following conditions are met by the Company:
- the technical feasibility of completing the intangible assets so that it will be available for use or sales;
- its intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it; - its ability to use or sell the intangible assets; - it is probable that the intangible asset created will generate future economic benefits;
- the availability of adequate technical financial and other resources to complete the development and use or sell the intangible assets; and
- its ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible assets during its development.
Internally generated intangible assets are amortised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, from the date the intangible is ready for use. Amortisation charge is recognised in the income statement within "Cost of sales".
Development costs that have been capitalised as intangible assets are amortised on a straight-line basis over the period of its expected benefits.
(c) Customer relationship
Customer relationships are measured initially at purchase cost and are amortised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful life of 5 years.
1.5 Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.
Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost, less estimated residual value on assets other than land, over their estimated useful lives, using the reducing balance method, on the following bases:
Machinery equipment under construction straight line 5 years Machinery equipment straight line 5 years Office equipment and motor vehicles straight line 5 years
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount of the asset. These are included in statement of comprehensive income.
Security equipment of installed at customers is initially included in balance sheet at cost, and classified as "installed at customers" on transfer to a customer's site. Depreciation is charge on straight line basis over a five year life. When any equipment is returned to the group, the net book value is reclassified as "not installed at customers" and no depreciation is charged.
1.6 Impairment of tangible and intangible assets excluding goodwill
At each balance sheet date, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets 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 is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects the 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. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a re-valued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.
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 so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a re-valued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.
1.7 Taxation
Current taxation
Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the tax authorities. The tax rates and the tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted, or substantively enacted, by the balance sheet date.
Deferred taxation
Deferred tax is provided in full using the balance sheet liability method for all taxable temporary timing differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying values for financial reporting purposes. Deferred tax is measured using currently enacted or substantially enacted tax rates.
Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent the temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future and that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the asset can be utilised.
1.8 Revenue recognition
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable in accordance with the Group's principal activity, net of VAT and trade discounts, also deducted sales business tax.
Security solutions
Revenue is general recognised in the period when the services are provided, using a straight-line basis over the term of the contract.
Security system integration centre
Contract revenue comprises the initial amount of revenue agreed in the contract and variations in the contract work and claims that can be measured reliably. A variation or a claim is recognised as contract revenue when it is probable that the customer will approve the variation, or negotiations have reached an advanced stage such that it is probable that the customer will accept the claim.
The stage of completion is measured by reference to the completion of a physical proportion of the contract work. When the outcome of a construction contract cannot be estimated reliably, contract revenue is recognised only to the extent of contract costs incurred that are likely to be recoverable.
1.9 Leases
Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lesser are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lesser) are charged to the profit and loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.)
1.10 Investment in subsidiaries
Investments in subsidiaries are stated at cost less provision for permanent diminution in value.
1.11 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits, bank balances, demand deposits and other short term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
1.12 Construction contracts in progress
Construction contract in progress represents the gross amount expected to be collected from customers for contract work performed to date. It is measured at costs incurred plus profits recognised to date (see Note 1.9) less progress billings and recognised losses. Cost includes all expenditure related directly to specific projects and an allocation of fixed and variable overheads incurred in the Group's contract activities based on normal operating capacity.
At the balance sheet date, the aggregated costs incurred plus recognised profit (less recognised loss) on each contract is compared against the progress billings. Where costs incurred plus the recognised profits (less recognised losses) exceed progress billings, the balance is presented as due from customers on construction contracts. Where progress billings exceed costs incurred plus recognised profits (less recognised losses), the balance is presented as due to customers on construction contracts.
1.13 Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised on the group's balance sheet when the group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Trade and other receivables
Trade and other receivables are initially measured at fair value and are subsequently reassessed at the end of each accounting period.
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. The accounting policies adopted for specific financial liabilities and equity instruments are set out below.
Trade payables
Trade payables are initially measured at fair value and are subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Equity instruments
Equity instruments issued by the company are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs. Shares issued are held at their fair value.
1.14 Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined on a first-in first-out basis. Net realisable value is based on estimated selling price allowing for all further costs to completion and disposal.
The inventory is included within finished goods (spare parts and uniform) and low-value consumption goods.
1.15 Borrowings
Borrowings are recognised initially at the proceeds received, net of transaction costs incurred, and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the end of reporting date.
1.16 Provisions
Provisions are recognised 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 resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Where the group expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the income statement net of any reimbursement. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a borrowing cost.
1.17 Commitments and contingencies
Commitments and contingent liabilities are disclosed in the financial statements. They are disclosed unless the possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote. A contingent asset is not recognised in the financial statements but disclosed when an inflow of economic benefits is probable.
1.18 Events after the balance sheet date
Post year-end events that provide additional information about a company's position at the balance sheet date and are adjusting events are reflected in the financial statements. Post year-end events that are not adjusting events are disclosed in the notes when material.
1.19 Foreign currencies
The financial information is presented in Renminbi ("RMB") which is the functional currency of the Group.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies in each company are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the accounting date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at the rate prevailing at the date of transaction.
1.20 Share-based payment arrangement
Equity-settled share-based payment transactions with parties other than employees are measured at the fair value of the goods or services received, except where that fair value cannot be estimated reliably, in which case they are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted, measured at the date the entity obtains the goods or the counterparty renders the services. Details regarding the determination of the fair value of equity-settled share-based transactions are set out in note 22.
Fair value is measured by use of the Black-Scholes model. The expected life used in the model has been adjusted, based on management's best estimate, for the effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions, and behavioural considerations
1.21 Employee Benefits
Short Term Employee Benefits
Wages, salaries, annual leave and sick leave, social security contributions, bonuses and non-monetary benefits are accrued in the period in which the associated services are rendered by the employees.
Post-employment benefits
For the subsidiary of the Group in PRC, there are contributory retirement plans operated by the local government. The employees participate in the defined contribution retirement plan whereby the company is required to contribute to the schemes at fixed rates of the employees' salary costs. The company's contributions to these plans are charged to profit or loss when incurred. The company has no obligation for the payment of retirement and other post-retirement benefits of staff other than the contributions described above.
Contribution made to the defined contribution retirement plan includes basic pension insurance in PRC which is charged to the profit and loss in the period to which they are related.
Under the pension plan which the Group pays fixed contributions and will have no legal or constructive obligations to pay further contributions if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employee benefits relating to employee service in the current or prior financial periods. Once the contributions have been paid, the Group has no further payment obligations.
1.22 Government grants
Government grants are recognised as income over the periods necessary to match them with the related costs which they are intended to compensate; and are recognised only when there is reasonable assurance that:
- the company will comply with the conditions attached to them; and - the grants will be received.
Unconditional government grant is recognised in profit or loss as other income when the grant becomes receivables
1.23 Accounting estimates and judgments
The preparation of financial statements in conforming to adopted IFRSs requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors considered reasonable at the time, but actual results may differ from those estimates. Revisions to these estimates are made in the period in which they are recognised.
Consolidation
The Group does not consolidate the results of Henan Xinxiang Jingan Security Technology Co., Limited ("Henan Xinxiang") as the Directors are of the opinion the control is not significant influence on its daily business operation.
1.24 Use of estimates
The assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation at the balance sheet date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below:
Intangible Assets
Amortisation
Intangible assets (other than goodwill) are amortised over their useful lives. Useful lives are based on management's estimates of the periods over which the assets are expected to generate revenues. These estimates are periodically reviewed for reasonableness. Due to the long lives of these assets, especially patent rights long lives (14 years) changes to the estimates can result in significant changes to the carrying value. A decrease of 10% in the charge in the next year would reduce costs by RMB270,000 approximately.
Impairment review
The Group assesses the impairment of intangible assets subject to amortisation or depreciation whenever events or changes in circumstances suggest that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable or may have been impaired. Factors that may trigger an impairment review include the following:
i. Significant underperformance relative to historical or projected operating results.
ii. Significant changes in the manner of the use of the assets or the overall business strategy.
iii. Significant negative industry or macro-economic trends.
The key assumptions used in the value in use calculations for the customer list included with intangible assets are customer attrition rates, revenue growth rates and appropriate discount rates.
Management has assessed the net present value and thereby impairment on variety of bases and assumptions. The impairment test are particularly sensitive to changes in the key assumptions and changes to the assumptions could result in impairment; however all of the varying bases indicate a net present value in excess of the carrying value of the intangible assets.
The key assumptions in the value in use calculations are as follows:
Customer Attrition Rate 5.3% Growth Rate 50%
Discount Factor 14.26%
A decrease of 10% in the key assumptions rates would result in the request for an impairment of the intangible asset.
1.25 Use of estimates - continued
Share-based payment
The Group has share option schemes for certain suppliers. Judgements and estimates are required in determining the share-based payment charge as an expense in the income statement. The directors have used Black-Scholes model which has been widely used in valuing the share based payment charge. The directors are in the opinion that the model used has been adjusted to their best estimate in arriving at the charge.
Construction contracts
Where the outcome of a construction contract can be estimated reliably, the Group recognises revenue and costs by reference to the stage of completion of the contract activity at the statement of financial position, measured based on the physical proportion of contract work performed to date, except where this would not be representative of the stage of completion. Variations in contract work, claims and incentive payments are included to the extent that they have been agreed with the customer.
Where the outcome of a construction contract cannot be estimated reliably, contract revenue is recognised to the extent it is probable that contract costs incurred will be recoverable. Contract costs are recognised as expenses in the period in which they are incurred.
When it is probable that total contract costs will exceed total contract revenue, the expected loss is recognised as an expense immediately.
The Group's accounting approach reflects a sound judgement as potential losses on contract are being considered and reflected with its probability immediately upon occurrence while contract revenue which cannot be estimated reliably is realised only after confirmed by written agreement.
Depreciation of property, plant and equipment
The Group depreciates the property, plant and equipment, using the straight-line method, over their estimated useful lives after taking into account of their estimated residual values. The estimated useful life reflects management's estimate of the period that the Group intends to derive future economic benefits from the use of the Group's property, plant and equipment. The residual value reflects management's estimated amount that the Group would currently obtain from the disposal of the asset, after deducting the estimated costs of disposal, as if the asset were already of the age and in the condition expected at the end of its useful life. Changes in the expected level of usage and technological developments could affect the economics, useful lives and the residual values of these assets which could then consequentially impact future depreciation charges. The carrying amounts of the Group's property, plant and equipment as at 31 December 2012 and 2013 were RMB 22.7 million and RMB 22.0 million respectively.
2 Business segments
For the purpose of IFRS 8, the chief operating decision maker takes the form of the Board of Directors. The Directors are of the opinion that the business of the Group comprises of a single activity, being the provider of security solutions to retail stores in the PRC. At the meetings between the Directors, the income, expenditure cash flows, assets and liabilities are reviewed on a whole-group basis. Nonetheless the Group's revenue and results can be classified into the following streams:
-- Security solution
-- Security system integration
Security
Security system
solution integration Company Total
RMB'000 RMB'000 RMB'000 RMB'000

Year ended 31 December
2012 (16,889) 21,448 (1,888) 2,671
The investment criterion of the Group is to invest in sales opportunities in prime locations. Sub-division of sales by type, function or by town or city of location is therefore of little significance in reviewing operations.
Based on the above considerations, there is considered to be one reportable segment, the provider of security solutions to retail stores in PRC. Internal and external reporting is on a consolidated basis, with transactions between Group companies eliminated on consolidation. Therefore the financial information of the single segment is the same as that set out in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.
All Group non-current assets are located in the PRC. No Group non-current assets are located in the entity's country of domicile.

The Group is regarded as residents for the tax purposes in PRC and subject to national income tax rate at 25%.
A deferred tax asset of approximately RMB 1,720,000 (2012: RMB 3,200,000) has not been recognized in respect of timing differences relating to losses not utilized and carried forward at the year end as there is insufficient evidence that the amount will be recovered in future years.
9 Loss per share
The calculation of basic and diluted loss per share at 31 December 2013 was based on the loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of RMB 434,697 (2012: RMB 1,113,669). The weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year ended 31 December 2011 and the effect of the potentially dilutive ordinary shares to be issued are shown below.

At 31 December 2013, 2.5m share options (2012: 2.5m) were excluded from the diluted weighted average number of ordinary shares calculation as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
The average market value of the Company's shares for purposes of calculating the dilutive effect of the share options was based on quoted market prices for the period during which the options were outstanding.
10 Acquisitions
