I. Notes on Indicators

1. Total profits: refer to the surplus of total revenue after deducting total costs and expenses from the production and operation of enterprises, reflecting the overall profit and loss of enterprises during the reporting period.

2. Business revenue: refers to the inflow of economic benefits from the production and operation of enterprises, such as selling goods, providing labor services and transferring the right to use assets. It includes the revenue from the main business and other business operations.

3. Operating costs: refer to the actual costs from the production and operation of enterprises, such as selling goods, providing labor services and transferring the right to use assets. They include the costs incurred by the main business and other business operations. Operating costs should be matched with business revenue.

4. Total assets: refer to the resources derived from past transactions or events, owned or controlled by an enterprise, and expected to bring economic benefits to the enterprise.

5. Total liabilities: refer to the current obligations generated from past transactions or events of an enterprise, and expected to result in an outflow of economic benefits from the enterprise.

6. Total owners’ equity: refers to the residual equity in the assets of an enterprise after deducting liabilities, which belongs to the owners.

7. Accounts receivable: refers to the amount that should be collected by an enterprise for its business activities, such as selling goods and providing services, measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet date.

8. Inventory of finished goods: refers to products, with all production processes having been finished by enterprises, that are accepted and stored after inspection, can be delivered to ordering units according to terms in the contract, or can be taken as goods for external sale; as well as various goods purchased or processed by external parties, which have been accepted and stored for sale.

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

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

11. Expenses for per-hundred-yuan business revenue = (selling expenses + administrative expenses + R&D 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 / the 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 of finished goods inventory = 360 × average finished goods inventory / operating 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 profits in the tables above, the “note” refers to negative total profits in the same period last year, which means loss, or 0.0 billion yuan; a positive value refers to a year-on-year increase of profits; a negative value between 0 and –100% (exclusive of 0) refers to a year-on-year decrease of profits; a decline of more than 100% indicates a turnaround from profit in the same period of the previous year to loss in the current period; a value of 0 indicates that the profits remain at the same level as last year.

II. The growth rates of indicators such as the total profits and business revenue 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 corresponding 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 policy, the survey scope of industrial enterprises above the designated size is adjusted regularly every year. Each year, some companies are included in the survey after having reached the designated size, and some exit the survey due to their smaller size. Changes also include enterprises that are newly established, those that go bankrupt, and those with their business licenses cancelled (revoked). (2) Statistical enforcement has been strengthened. Enterprises found in statistical inspections that failed to meet the requirements for industrial enterprises above the designated size were removed from the survey, and the relevant base figures were revised in accordance with regulations. (3) Data quality management has been strengthened by eliminating duplicate statistical data across regions and industries.

III. Statistical Coverage

Industrial enterprises above the designated size refer to industrial legal entities with annual revenue from the main business of 20 million yuan and above.

IV. Survey Method

Financial reports of industrial enterprises above the designated size are subject to a comprehensive monthly survey (the data of January is exempted).

V. Industrial Classification Standard

The Industrial Classification for National Economic Activities (GB/T 4754-2017) was implemented.
