Restricted Cash

Restricted cash increased by $2.1 million in the twelve months of 2020. No restricted cash existed at the end of 2019.

Advance from customers increased slightly by $2.1 million in the twelve months of 2020 from $67.6 million as of December 31, 2019 to $69.7 million as of December 31, 2020, which was primarily attributable to an increase of $67.7 million in prepaid rent received from customers of Nam Tai Inno Park offset by recognition of revenue of $64.7 million from the prepaid rent for the units delivered to the customers in the period.

Policy Update

On October 30, 2020, the Government of Guangdong province and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government jointly issued the 2020 Work Plan of the Framework Agreement on Hong Kong/Guangdong Co-operation ("2020 Work Plan").

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

Legal Proceedings

In October 2020, IsZo Capital LP ("Claimant") commenced legal proceedings against us and other parties in the High Court of Justice of the British Virgin Islands of the Eastern Caribbean Supreme Court (the "Court"). The claims contested, among other things, that the private placement previously announced by us on October 5, 2020 was invalid and should be set aside, and the Claimant also seeks to require us to hold a meeting of the members of the Company regarding the election of directors. In an order made ex parte, without notice to us, the Court granted the Claimant's request for a preliminary injunction enjoining us from taking certain corporate actions pending additional hearings to be held before the Court. In a Court hearing subsequent to the order, we have provided undertakings to the Court that we will continue the preservation of the position until the Court has the opportunity to consider additional details and evidence related to the claims and the injunction has not been continued. The Court made an Order on November 30, 2020 in which the undertakings given by the Company were amended. These amendments were made after the negotiations with the Claimant and the amended order is intended to be less restrictive to the operations of the Company. The trial of the proceedings will commence on January 29, 2021. The closing arguments of the trial are expected to be heard in late February 2021.

To avoid the unnecessary litigation costs on West Ridge Investment Company Limited (the "Third Defendant") and to address an ancillary claim issued by the Third Defendant efficiently, the Third Defendant, the Claimant and us agreed on December 14, 2020 that the Company will provide an indemnity to the Third Defendant if the Claimant is successful in its claim to set aside the PIPE transaction dated October 5, 2020. The Claimant agreed to stay its claim against the Third Defendant, and the Third Defendant agreed to be bound by a judgment against us, the First Defendant.

The ongoing litigation may cause concerns from our lending banks and local authorities regarding our financial condition, results of operations and cash flow. If the outcome of the litigation initiated by IsZo is not favorable to the Company, and the PIPE transaction dated October 5, 2020 was to be set aside, the lending banks may accelerate payment of all or any part of the loans under their relevant loan agreements and/or enforce all or any of the security for such loans in a short time, while local authorities may further scrutinize on our application of licenses, permits and certificates for development of real estate. We may encounter serious delays and difficulties in obtaining adequate financing and necessary approvals from the authorities, which could adversely affect our business, cash flow, financial conditions and reputation, as well as lead to liquidity crisis of the Company or bankruptcy.

We are currently unable to estimate the potential loss, if any, associated with the resolution of the claim. We anticipate that we will continue to be a target for lawsuits in the future. There can be no assurance that we will be able to prevail in our defense or reverse any unfavorable judgment on appeal, and we may decide to settle lawsuits on unfavorable terms. Any adverse outcome of these cases, including any appeal of the judgment in these cases, could result in payments of substantial monetary damages or fines, or changes to our business practices, and thus have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operation, cash flows and reputation.

The litigation process may divert management's attention from the day-to-day operations of the company, which could harm our business. We also may be subject to claims for indemnification related to these matters, and we cannot predict the impact that indemnification claims may have on our business or financial results.

For more details on the risks related to our business, please refer to "Item 3-Key Information-D Risk Factors-Risks Related to Our Business" in our most updated annual report on Form 20-F.

OPERATING RESULTS

Project Portfolio - As of December 31, 2020

Notes:

(a)     The types of our projects are based on our development plans or certificates issued by the relevant authority subject to adjustment upon the final approval.

(b)     The gross floor area is based on the assumption that we will receive M-0 zoning approval for the entire Inno Valley site prior to its redevelopment. If we do not receive the M-0 zoning approval, we will be required to develop Inno Valley under the M-1 zoning requirements. In that case, appropriate adjustments to our plan will have to be made. The existing gross floor area of Inno Valley is 41,927 square meters. According to "Shenzhen Industrial Block Range Line Management Measures", the location of Nam Tai Inno Valley is within the designated industrial block range, of which the government strictly controls the proportion of M-0 zoning on industrial land. Therefore, the proportion of M-0 zoning, floor area ratio and construction area of Inno Valley are subject to the final approval of the government which is uncertain at this time. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to develop Inno Valley according to the floor area currently disclosed.

(c)     The figure was adjusted from 110,271 square meters to 114,520 square meters upon the adjustment of land use planning in November 2020.

(d)     Properties completed refer to the status following the completion of the construction of the properties, the registration of the completion acceptance and the internal acceptance criteria.

We are a real estate developer and operator, mainly conducting business in Mainland China. Our main land resources are located in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area ("Greater Bay Area") and Wuxi, China, of which the three plots of land in Shenzhen will be developed into the technology parks of Nam Tai Inno Park, Nam Tai Technology Center and Nam Tai Inno Valley. We plan to build these technology parks into landmark projects in the region, and provide high-quality industrial offices, industrial service spaces and supporting dormitories to the park tenants. Based on the experience of developing and operating technology parks, and the industrial relationship network accumulated over the past 40 years, we have also exported the operation mode of technology parks to other industrial properties using the asset-light model to rent industrial properties for repositioning and business invitation. We will also expand the commercial and residential property business in China as an auxiliary development strategy of the Company. As the growth prospects of China maintain, we will actively seize development opportunities in the Greater Bay Area and other first- and second-tier cities in China, and continue to strengthen and expand the business of industrial real estate, and commercial and residential properties.
