SUMMARY OF PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES | |
Basis of presentation | Basis of presentation The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Group will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business are dependent on, among other things, the Group’s ability to generate cash flows from operations, and the Group’s ability to arrange adequate financing arrangements, to support its working capital requirements. Due to the outbreak of COVID-19, the Group’s businesses have been significantly impacted by the global outbreak of COVID-19 and began to experience operating losses and negative operating cash flows in the first quarter of 2020. If the trend were to continue the Group would be at risk of breaching certain financial covenants of the long-term credit facility of EUR 440 million and revolving credit facility of US$500 million. Further, holders of the Group’s Convertible Senior Notes due in 2022 of US$ 475 million have the right to require the Group to redeem the notes on November 2, 2020. These conditions and events may raise substantial doubt about the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Group is unable to continue as a going concern. To improve the operating performance and cash flows, the Group has taken various hotel operating measures, such as implementing intelligent non-contact room service, helping franchisees to obtain low-interest bank loans to meet their short-term working capital needs, negotiating with landlords for rental reductions and/or deferment, reducing management labor costs and other sale and management expenses, and reducing and postponing discretional capital expenditures. Management believes the relevant conditions and events that may raise substantial doubt about the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern are mitigated by the following plans and actions: • On April 17, 2020, the Group obtained an exemption approval for the EUR 440 million and US$500 million long-term credit facility, providing that with satisfaction of amended covenants, the original financial covenants will not be applicable until the six-month period ending June 30, 2021. The Group is and expects to be able to remain fully in compliance with the amended covenants; • The Group has the ability to liquidate short-term investments that are readily convertible into cash, the fair value of which was approximately RMB1,539 as of March 31, 2020. The Group also has investments in funds totaling RMB507 as of December 31, 2019 that, should circumstances warrant, could be disposed of within a relatively short period of time; • The Group has been proactively negotiating with landlords for rental reductions and deferment. Although the amount of reductions to be received is not currently determinable, the Group expects it is reasonably possible that a material amount can be obtained as a common market practice in this environment. • As of March 31, 2020, the Group had unused credit . Based on the Group’s historical experience, funding requests will be approved in the normal course of business provided that the Group submits the required supporting documentation and the amount is within the credit limit granted and the Group believes th is will continue ; • The Group may increase borrowings or raise capital to respond to any market conditions following the COVID-19 outbreak and potential redemption of the Group’s Convertible Senior Notes of US$475 million on November 2, 2020. Based on the above actions, management believes that adequate sources of liquidity exist to fund the Group’s working capital and capital expenditures requirements, and to meet its other liabilities and commitments as they become due for at least twelve months from the issuance of these financial statements. |
Basis of consolidation | Basis of consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company, its majority-owned subsidiaries and consolidated variable interest entities (the “VIEs”). All intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated on consolidation. |
Variable Interest Entities | Variable Interest Entities The Group evaluates the need to consolidate certain variable interest entities in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. The Company is deemed as the primary beneficiary of and consolidates variable interest entities when the Company has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic success of the entities and effectively assumes the obligation to absorb losses and has the rights to receive benefits that are potentially significant to the entities. As of December 31, 2018 and 2019, the Group consolidated six eight The Group evaluates its business activities and arrangements with the entities that operate the manachised and franchised hotels and the funds that it serves as general partner or fund manager to identify potential variable interest entities. Generally, these entities that operate the manachised and franchised hotels qualify for the business scope exception, therefore consolidation is not appropriate under the variable interest entity consolidation guidance. For the disclosure of significant non-consolidated |
Use of estimates | Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Group bases its estimates on historical experience and various other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Group’s consolidated financial statements include the useful lives and impairment of property and equipment and intangible assets, valuation allowance of deferred tax assets, purchase price allocation, impairment of goodwill, fair value measurement and impairment of investments, share-based compensation, estimates involved in the accounting for its customer loyalty program, contingent liabilities and discount rate used to measure lease liabilities. |
Cash and cash equivalents | Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and demand deposits, which are unrestricted as to withdrawal and use, and which have original maturities of three months or less when purchased. |
Restricted cash | Restricted cash Restricted cash mainly represents deposits used as security against borrowings, deposits restricted due to contract disputes or lawsuit and cash restricted for special purposes. As of December 31, 2019, RMB5,404 of restricted cash related to the subsequent acquisition of Deutsche Hospitality has been paid out in January 2020. |
Investments | Investments Investments represent equity-method investments, equity investments with readily determinable fair values, equity investments without readily determinable fair values and available-for-sale The Group accounts for equity investment in entities with significant influence under equity-method accounting. Under this method, the Group’s pro rata share of income (loss) from investment is recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Dividends received reduce the carrying amount of the investment. When the Group’s share of loss in an equity-method investee equals or exceeds its carrying value of the investment in that entity, the Group continues to report its share of equity method losses in the statements of comprehensive income to the extent and as an adjustment to the carrying amount of its other investments in the investee. Equity-method investment is reviewed for impairment by assessing if the decline in market value of the investment below the carrying value is other-than-temporary. In making this determination, factors are evaluated in determining whether a loss in value should be recognized. These include consideration of the intent and ability of the Group to hold investment and the ability of the investee to sustain an earnings capacity, justifying the carrying amount of the investment. Impairment losses are recognized in other expense when a decline in value is deemed to be other-than- temporary. Investments in equity securities that have readily determinable fair values (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee) are measured at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses from fair value changes recognized in net income in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Investments in equity securities without readily determinable fair values are measured at cost minus impairment adjusted by observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. These investments are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis when there are events or changes in circumstances that may have a significant adverse effect. An impairment loss is recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income equal to the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the investment. Debt securities that the company has no intent to hold till maturity or may sell the security in response to the changes in economic conditions are classified as available-for-sale Available-for-sale As a result of the impairment analysis, the Group recorded an impairment of nil nil 10 |
Accounts receivable, net of allowance | Accounts receivable, net of allowance Accounts receivable mainly consist of franchise fee receivables, amounts due from corporate customers, travel agents, hotel guests and credit card receivables, which are recognized and carried at the original invoice amount less an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Group establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts primarily based on the age of the receivables and factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers. |
Loan receivables | Loan receivables Loan receivables are measured at amortized cost with interest accrued based on the contract rate. The Group classified loan receivables as long-term or short-term investments according to their contractual maturity or expected holding time. The Group evaluates the credit risk associated with the loans, and estimates the cash flow expected to be collected over the life of loans on an individual basis based on the Group’s past experiences, the borrowers’ financial position, their financial performance and their ability to continue to generate sufficient cash flows. A valuation allowance will be established for the loans unable to collect. As a result of the assessment, the Group recorded a of nil nil and , respectively two three years un-related |
Inventories | Inventories Inventories mainly consist of small appliances, bedding and daily consumables. Small appliances and bedding for new hotels opened are stated at cost, less accumulated amortization, and are amortized over their estimated useful lives, generally one year |
Property and equipment, net | Property and equipment, net Property and equipment, net are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation . Leasehold improvements Shorter of the lease term or their estimated useful lives Buildings 20-40 Furniture, fixtures and equipment 3-10 Motor vehicles 5 years Construction in progress represents leasehold improvements and property under construction or being installed and is stated at cost. Cost comprises original cost of property and equipment, installation, construction and other direct costs. Construction in progress is transferred to leasehold improvements and depreciation commences when the asset is ready for its intended use. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Gain or loss on disposal of property and equipment, if any, is recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income as the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the underlying asset. |
Intangible assets, net and unfavorable lease | Intangible assets, net and unfavorable lease Intangible assets consist primarily of brand name, master brand agreement, non-compete before the adoption of ASC Topic 842, Leases non-compete The favorable lease agreements and unfavorable lease agreements in which the Group acts as a lessee were reclassified to operating lease right-of-use assets on January 1, 2019, upon adoption of ASC 842, Leases, which are amortized combining with right-of-use assets over remaining operating lease terms. The favorable lease agreements in which the Group acts as a lessor were accounted as intangible assets as before, which are amortized over remaining operating lease terms. Non-compete Brand name is considered to have an indefinite life. Master brand agreement, acquired in Accor acquisition, granted the Group certain franchise rights with initial term of 70 years, and can be renewed without substantial obstacles. As a result, the useful life is determined to be indefinite. The Group evaluates the brand name and master brand agreement each reporting period to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life. Impairment is tested annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired. The Group measures the impairment by comparing the fair value of brand name and master brand agreement with its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of brand name and master brand agreement exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss shall be recognized in an amount equal to that excess. The Group measures the fair value of the brand name under the relief-from-royalty method, the master brand agreement under the multi-period excess earnings method. The determination of the fair value requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions related to forecasts of future revenues, operating margin, royalty saving rate and discount rates to estimate the net present value of future cash flows. Management performs its annual brand n ame |
Land use rights | Land use rights The land use rights represent the operating lease prepayments for the rights to use the land in the PRC under ASC 842, which are amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining term of the land certificates, between 30 to 50 years. Amortization expense of land use rights for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019 amounted to RMB5, RMB5 and RMB8, respectively. |
Impairment of long-lived assets | Impairment of long-lived assets The Group evaluates its long-lived assets and finite lived intangibles for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. When these events occur, the Group measures impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the assets to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to result from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the assets, the Group recognizes an impairment loss equal to the difference between the carrying amount and fair value of these assets. The Group performed a recoverability test of its long-lived assets associated with certain hotels due to the continued underperformance relative to the projected operating results, of which the carrying amount of the property and equipment exceed the future undiscounted net cash flows, and recognized an impairment loss of RMB169, RMB35 and RMB3 during the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively. Fair value of the property and equipment was determined by the Group based on the income approach using the discounted cash flow associated with the underlying assets, which incorporated certain assumptions including projected hotels’ revenue, growth rates and projected operating costs based on current economic condition, expectation of management and projected trends of current operating results. |
Goodwill | Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the identifiable assets less liabilities acquired. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired. The Group completes a two-step The Group had not recognized any goodwill impairment for years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019. |
Revenue recognition | Revenue recognition Revenue are primarily derived from products and services in leased and owned hotels, contracts of manachised and franchised hotels with third-party franchisees as well as activities other than the operation of hotel businesses. Leased and owned hotel revenues Leased and owned hotel revenues are primarily derived from the rental of rooms, food and beverage sales and other ancillary goods and services, including but not limited to souvenir, laundry, parking and conference reservation. Each of these products and services represents an individual performance obligation and, in exchange for these services, the Group receives fixed amounts based on published rates or negotiated contracts. Payment is due in full at the time when the services are rendered or the goods are provided. Room rental revenue is recognized on a daily basis when rooms are occupied. Food and beverage revenue and other goods and services revenue are recognized when they have been delivered or rendered to the guests as the respective performance obligations are satisfied. Manachised and franchised hotel revenues The manachised and franchised agreement contains the following promised services: • Intellectual Property (“IP”) license • Pre-opening services • System maintenance services • Hotel management services day-to-day The promises to provide pre-opening pre-opening Manachised and franchised hotel revenues are derived from franchise agreements where the franchisees are primarily required to pay (i) an initial one-time on-going Initial one-time franchise fee On-going management and franchise service fees Central reservation system usage fees, other system maintenance and support fees Reimbursements for hotel manager fees out-of-pocket . Other Revenues Other revenues Loyalty Program Under the loyalty program the Group administers, members earn loyalty points that can be redeemed for future products and services. Points earned by loyalty program members represent a material right to free or discounted goods or services in the future. The loyalty program has one performance obligation that consists of marketing and managing the program and arranging for award redemptions by members. The Group is responsible for arranging for the redemption of points, but the Group does not directly fulfill the redemption obligation except at leased and owned hotels. Therefore, the Group is the agent with respect to this performance obligation for manachised and franchised hotels, and is the principal with respect to leased and owned hotels. For leased and owned hotels, a portion of the leased and owned revenues is deferred until a member redeems points. The amount of revenue the Group recognize upon point redemption is impacted by the estimate of the “breakage” for points that members will never redeem in the Group’s owned and leased hotels. For manachised and franchised hotels, the portion of revenue deferred by manachised and franchised hotels are collected by the Group which will be refunded upon redemption of points at manachised and franchised hotels. The estimated breakage for points earned in manachised and franchised hotels are recognized as manachised and franchised revenue for each period. The Group estimates breakage based on the Group’s historical experience and expectations of future member behavior and will true up the estimated breakage at end of each period. Membership fees from the Group’s customer loyalty program are earned and recognized on a straight-line basis over the expected membership duration of the different membership levels. Such duration is estimated based on the Group’s and management’s experience and is adjusted on a periodic basis to reflect changes in membership retention. The membership duration is estimated to be two five years Contract Balances The Group’s payments from customers are based on the billing terms established in contracts. Customer billings are classified as accounts receivable when the Group’s right to consideration is unconditional. If the right to consideration is conditional on future performance under the contract, the balance is classified as a contract asset. Payments received in advance of performance under the contract are classified as current or non-current |
PRC Value-Added Taxes and surcharges | PRC Value-Added Starting from May 2016, the accommodation services of the Group are subject to 6% of Value-Added Taxes. The Group is subject to education surtax and urban maintenance and construction tax, on the services provided in the PRC. |
Advertising and promotional expenses | Advertising and promotional expenses Advertising related expenses, including promotion expenses and production costs of marketing materials, are charged to the consolidated statements of comprehensive income as incurred, and amounted to RMB91, RMB103 and RMB99 for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively. |
Government grants | Government grants Government grants represent cash received by the Group in the PRC from local governments as incentives for investing in certain local districts, and are typically granted based on the amount of investments the Group made as well as income generated by the Group in such districts. Such subsidies allow the Group full discretion to utilize the funds and are used by the Group for general corporate purposes. The local governments have final discretion as to whether the Group has met all criteria to be entitled to the subsidies. Normally, the Group does not receive written confirmation from local governments indicating the approval of the cash subsidy before cash is received, and therefore cash subsidies are recognized when received and when all the conditions for their receipts have been satisfied. Government grants recognized were RMB55, RMB106 and RMB148 for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively, which were recorded as other operating income. |
Leases | Leases Before January 1, 2019, the Group adopted the ASC Topic 840, Leases , each lease is classified at the inception date as either a capital lease or an operating lease. All the Group’s leases are classified as operating lease under ASC Topic 840. The Group’s reporting for periods prior to January 1, 2019 continued to be reported in accordance with Leases (Topic 840). In evaluating whether an agreement constitute a lease upon adoption of the new lease accounting standard ASC 842, the Group reviews the contractual terms to determine which party obtains both the economic benefits and control of the assets at the inception of the contract. The Group categorizes leases with contractual terms longer than twelve months as either operating or finance lease at the commencement date of a lease. However, the Group has no finance leases for any of the periods presented. The Group recognizes a lease liability for future fixed lease payments and a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset representing the right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. Lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of fixed lease payments over the lease term using the rate implicit in the lease, if available, or the Group’s incremental borrowing rate. As its leases do not provide an implicit borrowing rate, the Group uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the estimated rate of interest for collateralized borrowing over a similar term of the lease payments at the commencement date. Current maturities of operating lease liabilities are classified as operating lease liabilities, current in the Group’s consolidated balance sheets. Most leases have initial terms ranging from ten years. The lease term includes lessee options to extend the lease and periods occurring after a lessee early termination option, only to the extent it is reasonably certain that the Group will exercise such extension options and not exercise such early termination options, respectively. The Group’s lease agreements may include components, mainly common area maintenance, which are combined with the lease components as the Group elects to account for these components as a single lease component, as permitted. Besides, the Group’s lease payments are generally fixed and certain agreements contain variable lease payments based on the operating performance of the leased property. Lease expense for fixed lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, and lease expense related to variable payments is expensed as incurred. Additionally, the Group elected not to recognize leases with lease terms of 12 months or less at the commencement date. Lease payments on short-term leases are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, not included in lease liabilities. The Group’s lease agreements do not contain any significant residual value guarantees or restricted covenants. The ROU assets are measured at the amount of the lease liabilities with adjustments, if applicable, for lease prepayments made prior to or at lease commencement, initial direct costs incurred by the Group, deferred rent and lease incentives, and any off-market terms (that is, favorable or unfavorable terms) present in the lease when the Group acquired leases in a business combination in which the acquiree acts as a lessee. The Group evaluates the carrying value of ROU assets if there are indicators of impairment and reviews the recoverability of the related asset group. If the carrying value of the asset group determined to not be recoverable and is in excess of the estimated fair value, the Group records an impairment loss in the consolidated statement of operations. Noncash lease expense are used as the noncash add-back for the amortization of the ROU assets to the operating section of the consolidated statements of cash flow. The Group reassesses of a contract is or contains a leasing arrangement and re-measures ROU assets and liabilities upon modification of the contract. The Group will derecognize ROU assets and liabilities, with difference recognized in the income statement on the contract termination. |
Income taxes | Income taxes Current income taxes are provided for in accordance with the relevant statutory tax laws and regulations. Deferred income taxes are recognized for temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements. Net operating losses are carried forward and credited by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of the Group, it is more- likely-than-not |
Foreign currency translation | Foreign currency translation The reporting currency of the Group is the Renminbi (“RMB”). The functional currency of the Company is the United States dollar (“US$”). Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are remeasured in functional currency at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency during the year are converted into the functional currency at the applicable rates of exchange prevailing on the day transactions occurred. Transaction gains and losses are recognized in the statements of comprehensive income. Assets and liabilities are translated into RMB at the exchange rates at the balance sheet date, equity accounts are translated at historical exchange rates and revenues, expenses, gains and losses are translated using the average rate for the year. Translation adjustments are reported as cumulative translation adjustments and are shown as a separate component of comprehensive income. The financial records of the Group’s subsidiaries are maintained in local currencies, which are the functional currencies. |
Comprehensive income | Comprehensive income Comprehensive income includes all changes in equity except for those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners and is comprised of net income, foreign-currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains (losses) associated with investments in securities accounted for as available-for-sale. |
Concentration of credit risk | Concentration of credit risk Financial instruments that potentially expose the Group to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term and long-term investments, loan receivables, amount due from related parties and accounts receivable. All of the Group’s cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are held with financial institutions that Group management believes to be high credit quality. In addition, the Group’s investment policy limits its exposure to concentrations of credit risk and the Group’s short-term and long-term investments consist of equity investments in listing and private companies. The Group’s loan receivables are lent to entities with high credit quality. The Group conducts credit evaluations on its group and agency customers and generally does not require collateral or other security from such customers. The Group periodically evaluates the creditworthiness of the existing customers in determining an allowance for doubtful accounts primarily based upon the age of the receivables and factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers. |
Fair value | Fair value The Group defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Group considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and it considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. The established fair value hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels of inputs may be used to measure fair value include: Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data. Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities. The Group’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalent, restricted cash, loan receivables current and non-current When available, the Group uses quoted market prices to determine the fair value of an asset or liability. If quoted market prices are not available, the Group measures fair value using valuation techniques that use, when possible, current market-based or independently sourced market parameters, such as interest rates. As of December 31, 2018 and 2019, information about inputs into the fair value measurements of the Group’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis in periods subsequent to their initial recognition is as follows: Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date Using A s of Description Fair Value Quoted Prices in Active Significant Other Significant 2018 Equity securities with readily determinable fair value 4,111 4,111 2018 Available-for-sale 320 320 2019 Equity securities with readily determinable fair value 2,908 2,908 2019 Available-for-sale 220 220 The following table presents the Group’s assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date Using Years Ended Description Fair Value for Quoted Prices Significant Significant Total 2017 Property and equipment 52 52 169 2018 Property and equipment 10 10 35 2019 Property and equipment — — 3 2019 Long-term Investment — — 10 As a result of reduced expectations of future cash flows from certain leased hotels, the Group determined that the hotels property and equipment with a carrying amount of RMB221, RMB45 and RMB3 was not fully recoverable and consequently recorded an impairment charge of RMB169, RMB35 and RMB3 for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively. Fair value of the property and equipment impairment testing was determined by the Group based on the income approach using the discounted cash flow associated with the underlying assets, which incorporated certain assumptions including projected hotels’ revenue, growth rates and projected operating costs based on current economic condition, expectation of management and projected trends of current operating results. As a result, the Group has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its long-lived assets held and used and its reporting units are unobservable inputs that fall within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The revenue growth rate and the discount rate were the significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement, which are 4% and 20%, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2017 8 As a result of the impairment assessment, the Group determined that the long-term investment amount with a carrying amount of nil, nil and RMB10 was impaired as a result of the impairment assessment for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively. |
Share-based compensation | Share-based compensation The Group recognizes share-based compensation in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income based on the fair value of equity awards on the date of the grant, with compensation expenses recognized over the period in which the grantee is required to provide service to the Group in exchange for the equity award. Vesting of certain equity awards are based on the performance conditions for a period of time following the grant date. Share-based compensation expense is recognized according to the Group’s judgement of likely future performance and will be adjusted in future periods based on the actual performance. The share-based compensation expenses have been categorized as either hotel operating costs, general and administrative expenses or selling and marketing expenses, depending on the job functions of the grantees. For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, the Group recognized share-based compensation expenses of RMB66, RMB83 and RMB110, respectively, which was classified as follows: Years Ended December 31, 2017 2018 2019 Hotel operating costs 20 27 35 Selling and marketing expenses 2 3 3 General and administrative expenses 44 53 72 Total 66 83 110 |
Earnings per share | Earnings per share Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income attributable to holders of ordinary shares by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue ordinary shares were exercised or converted into ordinary shares, which consist of the ordinary shares issuable upon the conversion of the convertible senior notes (using the if-converted The loaned shares under the ADS lending agreement are excluded from both the basic and diluted earnings per share calculation unless default of the ADS lending arrangement occurs which the Group considered the possibility is remote. |
Segment reporting | Segment reporting The Group identifies a business as an operating segment if: i) it engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses; ii) its operating results are regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance; and iii) it has available discrete financial information. The Group’s chief operating decision maker has been identified as the chief executive officer. CODM regularly reviews the operation data, such as industrial metrics of revenue per available room, occupancy rate, and number of hotels by scale/brand, to assess the performance and allocate the resources at brand level. All the acquired business including Accor, Crystal Orange and Blossom Hill has been migrated to the Group’s business, and the Group operates and manages its business as a single segment. Therefore, the Group has one single operating segment. The Group primarily generates its revenues from customers in the PRC during the reporting period. Substantially all of the Group’s long-lived assets are located in the PRC. |
Treasury shares | Treasury shares Treasury shares represent shares repurchased by the Company that are no longer outstanding and are held by the Company. Treasury shares are accounted for under the cost method. As of December 31, 2019, under the repurchase plan, the Company had repurchased an aggregate of 3,096,764 ordinary shares on the open market for total cash consideration of RMB107. The repurchased shares were presented as “treasury shares” in shareholders’ equity on the Group’s consolidated balance sheets. |
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements | Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Adopted Accounting Standards In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02 (“ ASU 2016-02 ”), Leases (Topic 842) 2016-02, 2018-11 2018-11 Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, 2016-02. rather than retrospectively adjusting prior periods and the package of practical expedients, which allowed the Group to (1) not reassess whether existing contracts contain leases, (2) carry forward the existing lease classification, and (3) not reassess initial direct costs associated with existing leases. Upon adoption of Topic 842, the Group elected to use the remaining lease term as of January 1, 2019 in estimation of the applicable discount rate for leases that were in place at adoption. By applying ASU 2016-02 Leases As a result of adoption, the Group recognized ROU assets of RMB and related lease liabilities of RMB for operating leases.
