Core Viewpoint - The Shenzhen Stock Exchange has introduced guidelines to recognize "light asset, high R&D investment" standards for companies on the Growth Enterprise Market, aiming to enhance technological innovation and encourage increased R&D spending [1][15]. Group 1: Applicable Scope - The guidelines apply to companies on the Growth Enterprise Market that exhibit characteristics of light assets and high R&D investment [1][17]. - "Light assets" are defined as having fixed assets and other physical assets accounting for no more than 20% of total assets at the end of the most recent year [4][17]. - "High R&D investment" is characterized by either an average R&D investment of at least 15% of operating income over the last three years or a cumulative R&D investment of no less than 300 million yuan with an average R&D investment of at least 3% of operating income over the same period [1][13][17].
