General Business ReviewTitan was listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in 2002. Subsequently, we acquired an interestin the Fujian Terminal, started the floating storage unit (“FSU”) business and entered into the oil anddistribution market in Singapore. Over the years, the Group continued to expand its onshore terminalbusiness by signing joint-venture contracts for the Shanghai Yangshan Terminal and the NanshaTerminal.We further expanded in this business sector by increasing our stakes in the Fujian Terminaland the Nansha Terminal to 100% in 2006 and 2008, respectively. Soon after Nansha Terminalcommenced operations, it was recognised by the Shanghai Futures Exchange as a designated physicaldeliverypointforitsfueloil.

We are one of the leading onshore storage terminals in China with over 2.7 million cubic metersstrategically located along the coastline at Guangdong Nansha, Fujian Quanzhou, Shanghai YangshanandShandongYantai.Wewillcontinuetofocusonthestoragebusinesseswhichhavebeenseeingstablerevenuegrowth.

Our Storage businesses have been affected by the global economic uncertainties, the tightermonetarypoliciesimplementedbytheChinesegovernmentin2011,thesocialunrestintheMiddleEastandNorthAfricawhich resulted in an unforeseen oil price spike, and the continued volatilemarkets in oil prices.Despite this, our business plans for expansion of our storage terminals remain on track. By the end of2011, we had become one of the largest independent onshore storage operators in China with a totaloperating capacity of over 2.7 million cubic meters.

BASIS FOR DISCLAIMER OF OPINION

Uncertainties relating to going concernAs set out in note 2.1 to the consolidated financial statements concerning the adoption of the going concernbasis on which the financial statement have been prepared, the Group incurred a loss of HK$783,332,000for theyearended31December2011and,asof thatdate, theGroup’sand theCompany’scurrent liabilitiesexceed its current assets by HK$1,243,237,000 and HK$2,131,051,000 respectively.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

As set out in note 2.1 to the consolidated financial statements, Grand China Logistics Holding (Group)Company Limited (“Grand China”) has failed to comply with its payment obligations relating to the sale andpurchaseagreement for theGroup’sdisposalof its95%equity interest inTitanQuanzhouShipyardCompanyLimited (“QZ Shipyard”) at a consideration of RMB1,865,670,000 (approximately HK$2,309,513,000) or amaximum reduced consideration of RMB1,465,670,000 (approximately HK$1,814,353,000) if QZ Shipyard’sprofit targets for the twoyearsending31December2012arenotmet.At thedateofapprovalof the financialstatements, the Company had not received the balances of the stage payments in the aggregate amountof RMB725,670,000 (approximately HK$898,307,000) that were due in accordance with the terms of theagreement and, accordingly, the equity interests in QZ Shipyard have not been transferred to Grand China.Asfurtherexplainedinthatnote, theabilityof theGrouptomeet itsdebtrepaymentobligationsfor theSeniorNotes due on 19 March 2012 and the Company’s preferred shares redeemable on 22 June 2012 (at theelection of the holder or the Company), based on the current liquidity of the Group, is dependent upon thereceiptoftheQZShipyardsalestagepayments.

Asfurtherexplainedinnote2.1,thedirectorsoftheCompanyaretakingstepstoimprovetheGroup’sliquidityand solvencyposition. These stepsmainly include (i) negotiationswithpotential strategic investors in respectof a possible equity investment in the Company; (ii) actively working to require Grand China to comply withits obligations under the sale and purchase agreement; and (iii) negotiations with the Senior Notes holdersandothercreditorstodeferorrenewtheGroup’sbankandotherborrowings.Asatthedateofapprovalofthefinancialstatements,thesemeasureshadnotyetbeenconcluded.

These events indicate the existence of material uncertainties which cast significant doubt about the Group’sabilitytocontinueasagoingconcern.

The validity of the going concern assumption on which the consolidated financial statements are preparedis dependent on the successful and favourable outcomes of the steps being taken by the directors of theCompany as described above. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the assumptionthat the Group will continue as a going concern and, therefore, do not include any adjustments relating tothe realisationandclassificationofnon-currentassetsandnon-current liabilities thatmaybenecessary if theGroupisunabletocontinueasagoingconcern.

Should the going concern assumption be inappropriate, adjustments may have to be made to reflect thesituationthatassetsmayneedtoberealisedatotherthantheamountsatwhichtheyarecurrentlyrecordedinthestatementof financialposition. Inaddition, theGroupmayhave toprovide for further liabilities thatmightarise,andtoreclassifynon-currentassetsandnon-currentliabilitiesascurrentassetsandcurrentliabilities.

Uncertainty relating to the carrying amount of a disposal group classified as held for saleThe assets and liabilities of the shipbuilding operations of the aforementioned QZ Shipyard were classifiedas a disposal groupheld for sale in theGroup’s consolidated statement of financial position at 31December2011 and stated at the net carrying amount of HK$1,990,666,000. The recovery in full of the carryingamount isheavilydependentonGrandChinahonouringitsobligations.Dependingonthefinaloutcomeofthenegotiations,aprovisionfor impairmenttostatethenetassetstotherecoverableamountmayberequired.Asat thedateofapprovalof thefinancialstatements,pendingtheconclusionof thenegotiations,thedirectorsoftheCompanyareunabletodetermine,ifany,provisionforimpairmentmayberequired.

2.1 BASIS OF PREPARATION (Continued)

Going concern basisDuring the year ended 31 December 2011, the Company and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) incurredlosses ofHK$783,332,000and, as of thedate, theGroupand theCompanyhadnet current liabilitiesofHK$1,243,237,000andHK$2,131,051,000 respectively.

Due to the failure of Grand China Logistics Holding (Group) Company Limited (“Grand China”) tocomplywith its payment obligations under the sale andpurchase agreement regarding the disposal oftheGroup’s95%equityinterestinTitanQuanzhouShipyardCo.,Ltd(“QZShipyard”),theCompanyhasnot received, at the date of this report, the outstanding obligations of stage payments of an aggregateof RMB725,670,000 (approximately of HK$898,307,000) and the payments for the subscription for500,000,000ordinarysharesatthesubscriptionpriceofHK$0.61pershareforanaggregateamountofHK$305,000,000(thelatterofwhichhasnowlapsed).

In these circumstances, the Company was unable to repay overdue principal and interest on theSenior Notes Due 2012 of US$105,870,000 (approximately HK$825,786,000) and US$4,499,000(approximatelyHK$35,092,000)whichbecamedueon19March2012.Asaresult,acrossdefaultwasalsotriggeredinrespectofabilateralloanwithafinancialinstitutioninanoutstandingprincipalamountofUS$1,300,000 (approximatelyHK$10,140,000)andanearly redemptioneventwasalso triggered inrespectoftheCompany’sandTitanGroupInvestmentLimited(“TGIL”)’sconvertiblepreferredsharesassetoutinnote46.

2.1 BASIS OF PREPARATION (Continued)

Going concern basis (Continued)Based on the aforesaid factors, the directors of the Company consider that the Group will havesufficientworkingcapital to finance itsoperationsand/orsettleorarrange its financialobligationsuponthe collection of outstanding balance of stage payments for QZ Shipyard disposal and the successfulimplementationofdebtsrestructuringand,accordingly,aresatisfiedthatitisappropriatetopreparethefinancial statements on a going concernbasis.On this basis, the consolidated financial statements donotincludeanyadjustmentsrelatingtothecarryingamountsandreclassificationofassetsandliabilitiesthatmightbenecessaryshouldtheGroupbeunabletocontinueasagoingconcern.

Basis of consolidationThe consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Group for the yearended 31 December 2011. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the samereporting period as the Company, using consistent accounting policies. The results of subsidiariesare consolidated from the date of acquisition, being the date on which the Group obtains control,and continue to be consolidated until the date that such control ceases. All intra-group balances,transactions, unrealised gains and losses resulting from intra-group transactions and dividends areeliminatedonconsolidationinfull.

Total comprehensive loss within a subsidiary is attributed to the non-controlling interest even if thatresultsinadeficitbalance.

A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is accounted for as anequitytransaction.

If the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises (i) the assets (including goodwill)and liabilities of the subsidiary, (ii) the carrying amount of any non-controlling interest and (iii)the cumulative translation differences recorded in equity; and recognises (i) the fair value of theconsideration received, (ii) the fair value of any investment retained and (iii) any resulting surplus ordeficit inprofitor loss.TheGroup’sshareofcomponentspreviouslyrecognisedinothercomprehensiveincomeisreclassifiedtoprofitorlossorretainedprofits/accumulatedlosses,asappropriate.

In addition, the amendment limits the scope ofmeasurement choices for non-controllinginterests. Only the components of non-controlling interests that are present ownershipinterests and entitle their holders to a proportionate share of the acquiree’s net assetin the event of liquidation aremeasured either at fair value or at the present ownershipinstruments’ proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets.

(b) a jointly-controlled entity, if the Group does not have unilateral control, but has joint control,directlyorindirectly,overthejointventure;or

Jointly-controlled entitiesA jointly-controlled entity is a joint venture that is subject to joint control, resulting in none of theparticipatingpartieshavingunilateralcontrolovertheeconomicactivityofthejointly-controlledentity.

2.4 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Business combinations and goodwill (Continued)When the Group acquires a business, it assesses the financial assets and liabilities assumed forappropriate classification and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economiccircumstances and pertinent conditions as at the acquisition date. This includes the separation ofembeddedderivativesinhostcontractsbytheacquiree.

If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date fair value of the acquirer’spreviously held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured to fair value as at the acquisition datethroughprofitorloss.

Any contingent consideration to be transferred by the acquirer is recognised at fair value at theacquisitiondate.Subsequentchangestothefairvalueofthecontingentconsiderationwhichisdeemedto be an asset or liability will be recognised in accordancewithHKAS 39 either in profit or loss or asa change to other comprehensive income. If the contingent consideration is classified as equity, itwill not be remeasured. Subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. In instanceswhere thecontingentconsiderationdoesnot fallwithin thescopeofHKAS39, it ismeasured inaccordancewiththeappropriateHKFRS.

Goodwill is initiallymeasuredatcostbeingtheexcessof theaggregateof theconsiderationtransferred,the amount recognised for non-controlling interests and any fair value of the Group’s previously heldequity interests in the acquiree over the identifiable net assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If thesumofthisconsiderationandother itemsis lowerthanthefairvalueofthenetassetsofthesubsidiaryacquired, the difference is, after reassessment, recognised in profit or loss as a gain on bargainpurchase.

After initial recognition,goodwill ismeasuredatcost lessanyaccumulated impairment losses.Goodwillistestedforimpairmentannuallyormorefrequentlyifeventsorchangesincircumstancesindicatethatthe carrying valuemay be impaired. The Group performs its annual impairment test of goodwill as at31December. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is,from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the Group’s cash-generating units, or groups of cash-generating units, that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective ofwhetherotherassetsorliabilitiesoftheGroupareassignedtothoseunitsorgroupsofunits.

Impairment is determined by assessing the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit (groupof cash-generating units) to which the goodwill relates. Where the recoverable amount of the cash-generatingunit(groupofcash-generatingunits) is lessthanthecarryingamount,animpairmentlossisrecognised.Animpairmentlossrecognisedforgoodwillisnotreversedinasubsequentperiod.

Where goodwill forms part of a cash-generating unit (group of cash-generating units) and part of theoperation within that unit is disposed of, the goodwill associated with the operation disposed of isincluded in the carrying amount of the operationwhendetermining the gain or loss ondisposal of theoperation. Goodwill disposed of in this circumstance is measured based on the relative values of theoperationdisposedofandtheportionofthecash-generatingunitretained.

2.4 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Impairment of non-financial assetsWhere an indication of impairment exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required(other than inventories, financial assets, goodwill and a disposal group classified as held for sale), theasset’s recoverable amount is estimated. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of the asset’sor cash-generating unit’s value in use and its fair value less costs to sell, and is determined for eachindividual asset, unless the assetdoesnot generate cash inflows that are largely independent of thosefromotherassetsorgroupsofassets,inwhichcasetherecoverableamountisdeterminedforthecash-generatingunittowhichtheassetbelongs.

At the inception of a hedge relationship, the Group formally designates and documents the hedgerelationship to which the Group wishes to apply hedge accounting, the risk management objectiveand its strategy for undertaking the hedge. The documentation includes identification of the hedginginstrument, the hedged item or transaction, the nature of the risk being hedged and how the Groupwill assess the hedging instrument’s effectiveness of changes in the hedging instrument’s fair valuein offsetting the exposure to changes in the hedged item’s fair value or cash flows attributable to thehedged risk. Such hedges are expected to be highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in fairvalues or cash flows and are assessed on an ongoing basis to determine that they actually have beenhighlyeffectivethroughoutthefinancialreportingperiodsforwhichtheyweredesignated.

2.4 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Convertible preferred shares and TGIL Notes Due 2014 (Continued)The remainder of the proceeds is allocated to the equity component of the convertible preferred shares and TGIL Notes Due 2014 is recognised and included in the equity portion of convertible unsecured notes in a jointly-controlled entity. The carrying amount of the conversion option is not remeasured in subsequent years. The transaction costs are apportioned between the liability, derivative and equity components of the convertible preferred shares and TGIL Notes Due 2014 based on the allocation of proceeds to the liability, derivative and equity components when the instruments were first recognised.

Convertible Notes Due 2015 and K Line Notes Due 2013If the conversion option of notes exhibits characteristics of an embedded derivative, it is separated from its liability component. On initial recognition, the derivative component of the notes is measured at fair value and presented as part of the notes. Any excess of proceeds over the amount initially recognised as the derivative component is recognised as the liability component. Transaction costs are apportioned between the liability and derivative components of the notes based on the allocation of proceeds to the liability and derivative components when the instruments are initially recognised. The portion of the transaction costs relating to the liability component is recognised initially as part of the liability and the portion relating to the derivative component is recognised immediately in the income statement.

Bunker oil, ship stores and spare partsBunker oil is stated at cost less any provisions considered necessary by the directors. Cost is determined on the weighted average cost basis.

Ship stores and spare parts are charged as operating expenses when purchased.

InventoriesInventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined on the first-in, first-out basis and, in the case of work in progress and finished goods, comprises direct materials, direct labor and an appropriate proportion of overheads. Net realisable value is based on estimated selling prices less any estimated costs to be incurred to completion and disposal.

Contracts in progress/Excess of progress billings over contract costsVoyage chartering and shipbuilding are accounted for in the statement of financial position as all direct costs incurred plus recognised profits, less recognised losses and progress billings. Voyage chartering revenue and shipbuilding revenue comprise the agreed contract amount while the direct costs incurred comprise the amount of bunker oil consumed and other overheads for voyage chartering, direct material costs and other overheads for shipbuilding.

Revenue from the rendering of services is recognised based on the percentage of completion of the transaction, provided that the revenue, the costs incurred and the estimated costs to completion can be measured reliably. The percentage of completion is established by reference to the costs incurred to date as compared to the total costs to be incurred under the transaction. Where the outcome of a contract cannot be measured reliably, revenue is recognised only to the extent that the expenses incurred are eligible to be recovered.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES (Continued)

JudgementsIn the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies, management has made the followingjudgements, apart from those involving estimations, which have the most significant effect on theamountsrecognisedinthefinancialstatements:

Depreciation of vessels

Depreciation of vessels constitutes a portion of the Group’s operating costs. The cost of vessels ischarged as depreciation expense over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets using thestraight-line method. The Group periodically reviews changes in market conditions, asset retirementactivities and salvage values to determine adjustments to the estimated remaining useful lives andresidualvaluesofthevessels.

Actual economic lives may differ from the estimated useful lives. Periodic reviews could result inchangesinresidualvaluesand,therefore,depreciationchargesinfutureperiods.

Impairment of assets

In determiningwhether an asset is impaired or the event previously causing the impairment no longerexists, theGrouphas to exercise judgements in theareaof asset impairment,particularly in assessing(1) whether an event has occurred that may affect the asset value or such event affecting the assetvaluehasnotbeeninexistence;(2)whetherthecarryingvalueofanassetcanbesupportedbythenetpresent value of future cash flowswhich are estimated based upon the continued use of the asset orderecognition;and(3)theappropriatekeyassumptionstobeappliedinpreparingcashflowprojections,includingwhether these cash flow projections are discounted using an appropriate rate. Changing theassumptions selected by management to determine the level of impairment, including the discountratesorthegrowthrateassumptionsinthecashflowprojections,couldmateriallyaffectthenetpresentvaluesusedinimpairmenttests.

Income tax

Deferred tax is provided, using the liability method, on all temporary differences at the end of thereportingperiodbetween the taxbasesofassetsand liabilitiesand theircarryingamounts for financialreportingpurposes.

Deferredtaxassetsarerecognisedforunusedtaxlossescarriedforwardtotheextentthatit isprobable(that is, more likely than not) that future taxable profits will be available against which the unusedtax losses can be utilised, based on all available evidence. Recognition primarily involves judgementsregarding the future performance of the particular legal entity or tax group in which the deferred taxassethasbeenrecognised.Avarietyofother factorsarealsoevaluated inconsideringwhether there isconvincingevidencethat it isprobable thatsomeportionorallof thedeferredtaxassetswillultimatelybe realised, such as the existence of taxable temporary differences, tax planning strategies and theperiods inwhich estimated tax losses can be utilised.

Impairment of goodwill

The Group determines whether goodwill is impaired, at least, on an annual basis. This requires anestimationof thevalue inuseof thecash-generatingunit towhich thegoodwill isallocated.EstimatingthevalueinuserequirestheGrouptomakeestimatesoftheexpectedfuturecashflowsfromthecash-generating unit and also to choose a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present values ofthosecashflows.

Impairment of non-financial assets (other than goodwill)

TheGroup assesses whether there are any indicators of impairment for all non-financial assets at theendofeach reportingperiod. Indefinite life intangibleassetsare tested for impairmentannuallyandatother times when such an indicator exists. Other non-financial assets are tested for impairment whenthereare indicationsthat thecarryingamountsmaynotberecoverable.Animpairmentexistswhenthecarryingvalueofanassetoracash-generatingunitexceedsitsrecoverableamount,whichisthehigherof its fairvalue lesscosts toselland itsvalue inuse.Thecalculationof the fairvalue lesscosts tosellis based on available data from binding sales transactions in an arm’s length transaction of similarassetsorobservablemarketprices less incrementalcosts fordisposingof theasset.Whenvalue inusecalculationsareundertaken,managementmustestimate theexpected futurecash flows fromtheassetor cash-generatingunit and choose a suitable discount rate in order to calculate thepresent value, ofthosecashflows.

Impairment of loans and receivables

TheGroupmaintains an allowance for the estimated loss arising from the inability of its customers tomake the required payments. The Group makes its estimates based on the ageing of its receivablebalances, customers’ creditworthiness, andhistoricalwrite-off experience. If the financial conditions ofits customerswere to deteriorate so that the actual impairment lossesmight be higher than expected,theGroupwouldberequiredtorevisethebasisofmakingtheallowance.

Additional or reduction to depreciation is made if the estimatedresidualvaluesofitemsofproperty,plantandequipmentaredifferentfromthepreviousestimations.

Net realisable value of inventories

Net realisable value of inventories is based on estimated selling prices less any estimated costs to beincurred to completion anddisposal. These estimates arebased on the currentmarket conditions andthe historical experience in selling goods of a similar nature. It could change significantly as a resultof changes in market conditions. The Group reassesses the estimations at the end of each reportingperiod.

Goodwill acquired through business combinations has been allocated to the following cash-generatingunitsforimpairmenttesting:

• Oilsupplycash-generatingunit;

• Onshorestoragecash-generatingunit;and

• Shipbuildingandshiprepaircash-generatingunit.

Impairment testing of goodwillOil supply cash-generating unit

The recoverable amount of the oil supply cash-generatingunit hasbeendeterminedbased on a valuein use calculation using cash flow projections beyond the five-year period based on financial budgetsapproved by senior management. The pre-tax discount rate applied to the cash flow projections was13.2%.

Onshore storage cash-generating unit

The recoverable amount of the onshore storage cash-generating unit has been determined based ona value in use calculation using cash flow projections based on financial budgets approved by seniormanagement covering the period equivalent to the lease term of the land where the onshore storagefacilitiesareerected.Thepre-taxdiscountrateappliedto thecashflowprojectionswas13.2%andthecash flows beyond the five-year period were projected by using an average growth rate of 3% for theonshorestoragerevenues.

Shipbuilding and ship repair cash-generating unit

Discontinuing of the shipbuilding business resulted in a transfer of the goodwill in relation to theshipbuilding and ship repair cash-generating unit to assets held for sale. No impairment loss wasrecognisedasthenetproceedsofsaleareexpectedtoexceedthecarryingamountof thenetassetsoftheshipbuildingbusiness.

The key assumptions for all of the above cash flow projections are the budgeted grossmarginswhichuse the average grossmargins achieved in the year immediately before the budgeted years, increasesfor expected market development, and the pre-tax discount rate of 13.2%, which is before tax andreflectsspecificrisksrelatingtotherespectivecash-generatingunits.
