Annotations:

I. Explanatory Notes:

1. Total Profits: refer to the balance of various incomes minus various spending in the course of operation, reflecting the total profits and losses of enterprises in reference period.

2.

Business revenue includes revenue from principal business and revenue from other business.

3. Business Cost: refers to the actual costs incurred by the enterprises in such production and operation activities as selling commodities, providing labor services and transferring the right to use of assets. It includes cost of principal business and cost of other business. Business cost should be matched with business revenue.

4. Total Assets: refer to all resources that are owned or controlled by enterprises through previous trades or transactions, with expectation of bringing economic profits to enterprises.

9. Profit rate of business revenue = total profits / business revenue × 100%, unit: %.

10. Costs for per-hundred-yuan business revenue = business costs / business revenue ×100, unit: yuan.

11. Expenses for per-hundred-yuan business revenue = (selling expenses + administrative expenses + development expenses + financial expenses) / business revenue ×100, unit: yuan.

12. Business revenue brought by per hundred-yuan assets = business revenue / average assets / the cumulative number of months × 12 × 100, unit: yuan.

13. Per capita business revenue = business revenue / average number of employees / the cumulative number of months × 12, unit: 10 thousand yuan / person.

14. Asset-liability ratio = total liabilities / total assets × 100%, unit: %.

15. Turnover days for inventory of finished goods = 360 × average inventory of finished goods / business costs × the cumulative number of months / 12, unit: days.

16. Average collection period for accounts receivable = 360 × average accounts receivable / business revenue × the cumulative number of months / 12, unit: days.

17. In the columns of year-on-year growth rate of total profit for the three tables above, the “note” refers to that the total profit for the same period of the previous year was negative (i.e. loss) or 0.0 billion yuan; the positive value refers to a year-on-year increase of profits; the negative value which is greater than or equal to -100% refers to a year-on-year decrease of profits; the value less than -100% indicates turning gain in the same period last year into loss in current period; and the value of 0 indicates that the profits remain at the same level year on year.

II. The growth rates of the total profits and revenue from activities of industrial enterprises above the designated size are calculated on a comparable basis. There are incomparable factors between the data in the reporting period and the same indicator data published in the previous year, which cannot be directly compared to calculate the growth rate. The main reasons are: (1) According to the statistical system, the survey coverage of industrial enterprises above the designated size is adjusted regularly every year. Each year, some enterprises will be included in the survey after having reached the requisite size, and some will exit the survey due to their smaller scale, and there are also the effects of enterprises that are newly established, bankrupt and enterprises with their business licenses cancelled (revoked). (2) As a result of statistical law enforcement, the enterprises found in the statistical law enforcement inspection that do not meet the statistics requirements for industrial enterprises above the designated size have been eliminated, and relevant bases have been revised in accordance with regulations. (3) As a result of strengthening data quality management, the duplicated data across regions and industries have been eliminated.

III. Statistical Coverage

Industrial enterprises above the designated size refer to industrial corporate units with revenue from principal activities over 20 million yuan.

IV. Survey Method

The financial report of enterprises above the designated size is collected via comprehensive monthly survey (the data on January are not required to report).

V. Industrial Classification Standard

The Industrial Classification for National Economic Activities (GB/T4754-2017) is performed.
