The calculation of the earnings/(loss) per share attributable to equity holders of the Company for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015 is based on the profit for the period of RMB375,236,000 and loss for the period of RMB50,626,000 and on the weighted average 4,912,016,000 shares in issue during the period excluding the ordinary shares repurchased and held as treasury shares and 4,918,400,000 shares in issue during the period ended June 30, 2015 respectively.
The earnings per ADS have been calculated based on the profit for the relevant periods and on one ADS, being equivalent to 10 H shares.
On December 31, 2014, the Company’s subsidiary issued subordinated capital notes. Noteholders will be permitted to convert the subordinated capital notes into 1,000 Yancoal Australia Limited ordinary shares.
Diluted earnings/(loss) per share for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 is the same as the basic earnings/ (loss) share as there is no dilutive effect of subordinated capital notes on potential ordinary shares outstanding.
13. | RESTRICTED CASH/TERM DEPOSITS |
At the balance sheet date, the restricted cash of PRC portion mainly represents the deposits paid for safety work as required by the State Administrative of work safety. Term deposits were pledged to certain banks as security for loans and banking facilities granted to the Group.

26. | FAIR VALUES |
The fair value of available-for-sales investment is determined with reference to quoted market price. The fair values of the forward foreign exchange contracts are estimated based on the discounted cash flows between the contract forward rate and spot forward rate. The fair value of other financial assets and financial liabilities are determined in accordance with generally accepted pricing models based on discounted cash flow analysis.
The directors consider that the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded at amortized cost in the consolidated financial statements approximate their fair values.
Fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities are determined as follows:
The following table presents the carrying value of financial instruments measured at fair value across the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. The levels of fair value are defined as follows:
Level 1: | fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities; | |
Level 2: | fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and | |
Level 3: | fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the assets or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). |
