Equity Method Accounting Treatment

 

The Company’s 51% ownership of KC-Glory JV, 51% ownership of KC-Geotech JV and 35% ownership of KC-CRFG JV allowed the Company to have joint control over the operations and decision-making at joint ventures. Accordingly, the Company accounted for the transaction under the equity method and recorded the carrying value of the Company’s investment in joint ventures’ common shares at cost, including the transaction costs incurred to obtain the equity method investment, in the consolidated balance sheets.
