Recent Business Development

近期业务进展

At theend of December, 2014, the Company transferred its Waste Heat Power GenerationSystem ("WHPG System") system originally leased to Zhong Gang GroupBin Hai Industry Co., Ltd. ("Zhong Gang") to Zhong Gang for a price of aboutUS$9.8 million (RMB60.0 million). Under the original lease contract, CREGwas leasing the WHPG System to Zhong Gang for 9 years from the daythe system became operational in October 2010 until September 2019. Accordingto Company's estimates, thesystem transfer price is fairly close to thediscounted cash flow value of the total principal repayment and interest incomeon sales-type leases of US$11.3 million (RMB69.3 million) receivable by theCompany during the period from January 1, 2015 to September 30, 2019.

201412月末,公司将原先租赁给中钢集团滨海实业有限公司(“中钢”)的余热发电系统(“WHPG系统”)以大约980万美元(6000万元RMB)的价格转让给中钢。按照原先的租赁合同,CREG会将该WHPG系统租赁给中钢九年,从201010月运营开始到20199月到期。根据公司的估算,该系统的转让价格十分接近于公司从201511日到2019930日销售型租赁应收利息收入及本金偿还总额的现金折现值。
