Headquartered and listed in Singapore, Otto Marine Limited (“Otto Marine”) is an offshore marine group engaged in shipbuilding, ship repair and conversion and ship chartering, with a specialised focus on complex, sophisticated and environment friendly offshore support vessels.
Otto Marine has established a track record in shipbuilding, repair and conversion since the 1980s. In 2004, we started to focus on the higher margin offshore marine sector and built our first Anchor Handling Tug Supply (“AHTS”) vessel, which was successfully delivered in the following year. Led by an experienced management team, we have developed strong engineering and technical capabilities and gained recognition in the construction of high-specification offshore support vessels ever since, especially in the construction of AHTS vessels and Platform Supply Vessels (“PSV”s) that comply with the technical specifications required to operate in the North Sea. Indeed, Braemar Seascope Offshore lists Otto Marine as one of the top ten major players in the global market for AHTS vessels.
Our customers are primarily fleet operators who provide logistics support to offshore services and equipment companies operating globally in the oil and gas industry. We offer customers a total solutions approach, whereby customers are provided with turnkey solutions from the selection of design to project specification, procurement, construction, system installation and integration, testing, commissioning to warranty support. By combining in-house expertise and third party specialists’ support, we also provide ship repair and conversion services for a wide range of vessels including offshore support vessels, ocean-going tugs, car ferries, general cargo ships and others.
Otto Marine’s well-equipped and strategically located shipyard in Batam, Indonesia, plays an instrumental role in our ability to offer turnkey solutions to our customers. Due to its proximity to Singapore and highly accessible location in Batam, the shipyard provides us with a strategic advantage by allowing us to combine the management talent and expertise from Singapore and a ready supply of workers from Indonesia. One of the largest shipbuilding yards in Batam, with land area of 40 hectares and 450 metres of usable waterfront, the shipyard is well-equipped with some of the latest technology and facilities within the industry. It is currently the only shipyard in Asia which builds 21,000 Brake Horsepower (“bhp”) AHTS vessels on a turnkey basis using the latest design from renowned Norwegian ship design house Vik-Sandvik. Currently there are four such vessels on Otto Marine’s order book, a strong testament of customers’ confidence in us.
We remain committed to ensuring the smooth delivery of vessels to our customers even as we forge ahead with our plans to expand our ship chartering business to provide Otto Marine with a more stable source of income moving forward.

EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN’SSTATEMENT
0�
Dear Shareholders,
2008 has been an exciting year for us, which culminated with the listing of Otto Marine on the Main Board of the Singapore Stock Exchange in November. Being a listed company has enabled Otto Marine to further distinguish ourselves as a strong and formidable player in the offshore and marine industry, and positioned us well for long-term growth.
Delivering strong growth
Our Group achieved 54% growth in revenue to S$483.6 million and 12% rise in net profit to S$60.0 million for the full year ended 31 December 2008 (“FY2008”). FY2008 net profit attributable to shareholders was S$56.8 million, up 36% from S$41.9 million in FY2007. Our performance attests to the success of our Group’s strategic focus on the more complex and sophisticated offshore vessels, together with our strategy of diversifying our sources of income by expanding our ship chartering business.
The construction of complex and sophisticated offshore vessels which comply with technical specifications required to operate in the North Sea generally produces better margins for us. Our strong engineering and technical capabilities, coupled with our solid track record of delivering vessels that meet our customers’ expectations,
has enabled our Group to gain recognition in the construction of high-specification offshore support vessels. In fact,
our Group is considered one of the top ten major players in the global market of Anchor Handling Tug Supply (“AHTS”) vessels by industry analyst Braemar Seascope Offshore and as at 31 December 2008, we
have a forward order book to construct 22 vessels worth a total of S$799.2 million.
Global Reports LLC
We believe that the demand for offshore support vessels will continue to shift towards vessels that are larger and more sophisticated in terms of their engine capacity, bollard pull and navigational equipment as the search for, and production of, offshore oil and gas become more demanding both in terms of increasing water depths and severe weather conditions. In addition, current industry trends call for vessels with improved design on stability capabilities and inherently safer and environment friendly operation. We believe these trends will provide strong support for the vessels that we build.
Ship chartering is another key area of business for our Group and we aim to grow this business into a major pillar of our Group income. A long-term stable source of income from ship chartering will complement our shipbuilding business. We either own charter vessels directly, or jointly with experienced operators with a stable presence in buoyant offshore areas through strategic partnerships. Our strategic partnerships enable us not only to leverage on our partners’ strengths in marketing and operations, but also allow us to penetrate new and developing markets. As at 31 December 2008, we have a charter fleet of 11 vessels, which include vessels owned directly and through strategic partnerships.
Focusing on execution
In 2009, the timely execution of our order book will continue to be a key focus. This includes the completion of two Norwegian-design MT6009 DNV-class diesel electric Platform Supply Vessels (“PSVs”), which represent our very first Norwegian-design DNV-class vessels to our JV partner, GC Rieber. We are also working on four AHTS vessels for our Norwegian customer that are highly-specialised 21,000 Brake Horsepower (“bhp”) AHTS vessels which adopt the latest VS491 design from renowned Norwegian ship design house Vik-Sandvik. To expand our chartering fleet
in FY2009, we have secured a new loan of US$26.8 million to finance the construction of two offshore support vessels. Our shipbuilding yard in Batam, Indonesia, is the only one in Asia which builds these AHTS vessels on a turnkey basis.
The offshore marine sector, together with many industries, has been affected negatively by the turbulence in the economic environment and the industry has experienced a significant slowdown in new shipbuilding order in recent months and these adverse external market and economic conditions are expected to remain for the rest of the year 2009. We will actively and cautiously review our long term strategies in this market place to deliver value to our shareholders.
Appreciation to All
The listing of Otto Marine on the Main Board of the Singapore Stock Exchange is indeed a major milestone for us and it signifies another fresh chapter in our business.
On behalf of the Board of Directors, I would like to thank our customers, business partners, bankers and suppliers for your support; our employees for your hard work, dedication and sacrifice; and our shareholders and investors for your confidence in us.
Otto Marine will remain dedicated to our quest to continue building our business, building vessels that meet our customers’ exacting standards, and of course, building shareholders’ value.

CEO’SSTATEMENT
08
Dear Shareholders,
I am pleased to present the first Otto Marine annual report, and to report that in our first year as a listed company, we have turned in a strong performance for the full year ended 31 December 2008 (“FY2008”).
Review of FY2008 financial performance
The Group achieved 54% growth in revenue in FY2008 to S$483.6 million from S$314.0 million in FY2007. The increase was contributed by the shipbuilding business, which benefited from an increase in the number of vessels constructed, particularly from the larger and more complex vessels, which are of higher value; as well as the chartering business, which benefited from the recognition of the full twelve months of revenue in FY2008 compared to FY2007 as our Group only commenced our ship chartering business in April 2007. Revenue from shipbuilding rose 58% from S$286.0 million in FY2007 to S$453.1 million in FY2008, whilst revenue from chartering increasing 74% from S$9.3 million in FY2007 to S$16.1 million in FY2008. The increase in Group revenue was however partially offset by a 23% decrease in revenue from the ship repair and conversion business from S$18.8 million in FY2007 to S$14.4 million in FY2008 as we shifted our focus away from ship repair and conversion to shipbuilding.
Gross profit margin in FY2008 remained stable at approximately 26%. However net profit margin was impacted by higher foreign exchanges losses, finance costs, administrative expenses and reversal of unrealised profit on sale of vessels. Notwithstanding the decline in net profit margin, net profit for FY2008 was up 12% from S$53.7 million in FY2007 to S$60.0 million in FY2008. Meanwhile, earnings per share in FY2008 rose 33% to 5.72 Singapore cents, from 4.30 Singapore cents in FY2007.
Global Reports LLC
OTTO MARINE LIMITED
annual report 2008 0�
Our balance sheet remained strong with S$248.7 million of cash and cash equivalents and Group net asset value per share of 18.55 Singapore cents as at 31 December 2008.
Our shipbuilding business
We build a range of small, medium and large offshore support vessels, including Anchor Handling Tug Supply (“AHTS”) vessels, Platform Supply Vessels (“PSV”), work barges with accommodation for 300 people, and work maintenance boats. We have a strategic focus on higher value, higher margin, complex and sophisticated offshore vessels which comply with technical specifications required to operate in the North Sea. We selectively outsource the construction of small to medium offshore support vessels to third party shipyards in China whilst the higher value offshore support vessels are constructed at our shipyard in Batam, Indonesia, which is one of the largest shipyards in Batam with approximately 40 hectares of land area and 450 metres of usable waterfront.
We adopt a total solutions approach to shipbuilding, which means we provide our customers with turnkey solutions from the selection of design to project specification, procurement, construction, system installation and integration, testing, commissioning to warranty support. Our turnkey approach enables us to provide greater value-added customised solutions to our customers.
In the fourth quarter of FY2008, new ship orders have slowed due to the global economic downturn but none of our orders were cancelled. As at 31 December 2008, the Group’s order book stood at S$799.2 million, comprising of 22 vessels, which include 14 AHTS vessels, four PSVs, two utility vessels, one offshore construction vessel and one accommodation work barge. Cash deposits of between 20% to 30% have been collected for all vessels in the order book.
Our focus in 2009 for our shipbuilding business will be on the execution and completion of vessels in our order book, which will translate to sales proceeds that will help to boost our cash inflows and further strengthen our financial position. We are off to a good start, having already completed delivery of, and received full payment for a vessel in the first two months of 2009.
Our ship chartering business
Our chartering business is largely focused on the chartering of offshore support vessels and we operate the business via our wholly-owned fleet as well as through strategic partnerships in which we own a minority stake. Entering into such strategic partnerships enable us to tap into the expertise of our strategic partners, who are involved in chartering of different types of offshore vessels in different markets and locations, thereby allowing us to penetrate new markets faster and at higher charter rates than if we go alone.
Our chartering business provide our Group with a long term steady flow of income, and is in line with our business strategy of broadening our revenue base. As at 31 December 2008, our fleet comprises five 3,600 Horsepower tugboats, and five 10,000 Deadweight Tonnes (“dwt”) high-deck loading barges, all of which are on time charter. We also own one work barge with accommodation for 300 people through our strategic partnership that is on time charter. In addition, we have entered into time charter contracts for two 61m maintenance vessels, and bareboat charter agreements for two 6,000 bhp AHTS vessels, all of which are currently under construction.
In 2009 our emphasis for our ship chartering business will be on expanding our chartering fleet. We have 11 vessels, which comprise two maintenance vessels, five tugs, two 6,000 bhp AHTS vessels and two work barges with accommodation for
Global Reports LLC
�0
300 people, that will be completed in 2009 to add to our chartering fleet. Also under construction are nine vessels that have been sold to our strategic partners, and eight vessels that are intended for sale to our strategic partners.
Our ship repair and conversion business
Our Batam shipyard offers comprehensive “one stop” facilities for both ship repair and conversion works. We service a wide range of vessels including offshore support vessels, ocean-going tugs, car ferries and general cargo ships.
Whilst we have shifted our focus away from the ship repair and conversion business in FY2008, the business is important to our strategy of broadening our revenue base. In the event of a slowdown in the shipbuilding business, we will be able to diversify our sources of income by reallocating our resources and capacity to increase our ship repair and conversion business.
Business outlook
Although market and economic conditions are expected to remain difficult in 2009, we are optimistic that we will perform despite the environment. We will continue to be conscious of costs, and plan to review and further streamline our production process this year in line with our continuing and ongoing efforts to improve efficiency and productivity. Nonetheless, we believe that the long term outlook for the offshore marine industry remains positive, and are cautiously confident that we will be able to ride through the current economic situation and emerge stronger and well-positioned for growth.

CORPORATEGOVERNANCE REPORT
The Board of Directors of Otto Marine Limited (“Board”) recognises the importance of corporate governance and is
committed to setting and maintaining a high standard thereof. The Company is guided in its corporate governance
practices by the Code of Corporate Governance 2005 (the “Code”) issued by the Singapore Council on Corporate
Disclosure and Governance so as to protect shareholders’ interests and enhance long-term shareholders’ value and
corporate transparency. This Corporate Governance Report outlines the Group’s corporate governance processes
and activities during the fi nancial year ended 31 December 2008 with specifi c reference to the Code.
PRINCIPLE 1: BOARD’S CONDUCT OF ITS AFFAIRS
The Board is responsible for the overall direction and management of the Group. Its role involves the protection
and enhancement of long-term Shareholders’ value through the enhancement of corporate performance and
accountability. The Board oversees and approves the formulation of our Group’s overall long-term strategic objectives
and directions, and sets its values and standards. It is responsible for our Group’s overall performance objectives,
fi nancial plans and annual budget; major investments, divestment and funding proposals; fi nancial performance
reviews, risk management, and corporate governance practices; and ensuring our Group’s compliance with all laws
and regulations as may be relevant to our Group’s business. The Board also approves the policies and guidelines
for the Board and our Senior Management remuneration as well as the appointment of Directors. In line with
best practices in corporate governance, the Board also oversees long-term succession planning for our Senior
Management.
The Board has adopted a set of internal controls and guidelines for our Management to operate within. These
internal controls and guidelines set authorisation and approval limits for operating matters. Apart from matters that
specifi cally require the Board’s approval, such as investments, acquisitions, disposals, borrowings, issue of shares,
dividend distributions and other returns to Shareholders, the Board approves operational matters where the value of a
transaction exceeds these limits.
To assist in the execution of its responsibilities, the Board has established three committees as follows:
a. Audit Committee (“AC”);
b. Nominating Committee (“NC”); and
c. Remuneration Committee (“RC”).
Each committee functions within clearly defi ned terms of reference and operating procedures. The effectiveness of
each committee is also constantly reviewed by the Board.
The Board conducts regular scheduled meetings on a quarterly basis. Ad-hoc meetings can also be convened when
circumstances require. If necessary, Board meetings may be conducted by way of telephone or video conferencing as
permitted under Article 116 of the Company’s Articles of Association.

DIRECTORS’REPORT
10 SHARE-BASED INCENTIVE SCHEME
On September 2, 2008, the Company adopted an employee share-based incentive scheme known as the
Otto Marine Share Award Scheme (the “Share Award Scheme”). Directors, executives and full time employees
(except for Mr. Lee Kok Wah and Controlling Shareholders or associates of Controlling Shareholders) are
eligible to participate in the Share Award Scheme. The Share Award Scheme administered by the Share
Award Committee provided that no member of the Share Award Committee shall participate in any deliberation
or decision in respect of shares granted or to be granted to him. The Share Award Committee comprises
directors, which at all times shall include an independent director, duly authorised and appointed by the Board
of Directors. At the balance sheet date, members of the Share Award Committee have yet to be appointed.
Meanwhile, the Remuneration Committee is tasked with the interim administration of the Share Award Scheme.
The Share Award Scheme awards to participants fully paid shares, their equivalent cash value or combinations
thereof free-of-charge, upon the participants achieving prescribed performance targets and upon expiry of the
prescribed vesting periods. The Share Award Scheme is intended to attract, retain and motivate participants to
achieve performance targets which will create and enhance economic value for the Company and to encourage
greater commitment, dedication and loyalty.
The total number of award shares which may be issued pursuant to the Share Award Scheme shall not exceed
15% of the issued share capital of the Company on the day preceding the relevant date of the award. The
Scheme shall continue in force at the discretion of the Share Award Committee, subject to a maximum period
of 10 years commencing on the date the Share Award Scheme is adopted by the Company in the general
meeting.
During and at the end of the fi nancial year, no shares have been issued or awarded under the Share Award
Scheme.
On January 23, 2009, the Directors have approved to grant 6,240,000 award shares at the market price of
$0.425 per share pursuant to the Share Award Scheme. On January 30, 2009, the Company issued 3,120,000
shares to certain employees of the Group as award shares.

INDEPENDENTAUDITORS’ REPORTTO THE MEMBERS OF OTTO MARINE LIMITED
03434
We have audited the accompanying fi nancial statements of Otto Marine Limited (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) which comprise the balance sheets of the Group and the Company as at December 31, 2008, the profi t and loss statement, statement of changes in equity and cash fl ow statement of the Group and the statement of changes in equity of the Company for the fi nancial year then ended, and a summary of signifi cant accounting policies and other explanatory notes, as set out on pages 35 to 94.
Management’s Responsibility
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these fi nancial statements in accordance with the provisions of the Singapore Companies Act, Cap 50 (the “Act”) and Singapore Financial Reporting Standards. This responsibility includes: devising and maintaining a system of internal accounting controls suffi cient to provide a reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorised use or disposition; and transactions are properly authorised and that they recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of true and fair profi t and loss accounts and balance sheets and to maintain accountability of assets; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances.
Auditors’ Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these fi nancial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Singapore Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the fi nancial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the fi nancial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the fi nancial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the fi nancial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the fi nancial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is suffi cient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion,
(a) the consolidated fi nancial statements of the Group and the balance sheet and statement of changes in equity of the Company are properly drawn up in accordance with the provisions of the Act and Singapore Financial Reporting Standards so as to give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Group and of the Company as at December 31, 2008 and of the results, changes in equity and cash fl ows of the Group and changes in equity of the Company for the fi nancial year ended on that date; and
(b) the accounting and other records required by the Act to be kept by the Company and by those subsidiaries incorporated in Singapore of which we are the auditors have been properly kept in accordance with the provisions of the Act.

1 GENERAL
The Company (Registration No. 197902647M) was a private limited Company incorporated in Singapore,
with its principal place of business and registered offi ce at 9 Temasek Boulevard #33-01 Suntec Tower Two,
Singapore 038989. On March 17, 2008, the Company converted to a public limited Company and changed its
name to Otto Marine Limited. The Company was listed on the mainboard of the Singapore Stock Exchange on
November 28, 2008. The fi nancial statements are expressed in Singapore dollars.
The principal activities of the Company and the Group consist of the construction, fabrication, repair and
conversion, and chartering of ships. The Company operates through a branch in United Arab Emirates.
The principal activities of the subsidiaries and associates are disclosed in Note 12 and 13 to the fi nancial
statements respectively.
The consolidated fi nancial statements of the Group and balance sheet and statement of changes in equity
of the Company for the fi nancial year ended December 31, 2008 were authorised for issue by the Board of
Directors on March 20, 2009.
2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING - The fi nancial statements are prepared in accordance with the historical cost
convention, except as disclosed in the accounting policies below, and are drawn up in accordance with the
provision of the Singapore Companies Act and Singapore Financial Reporting Standards (“FRS”).
ADOPTION OF NEW AND REVISED STANDARDS - In current fi nancial year, the Group and Company have
adopted all the new and revised FRSs and Interpretations of FRS (“INT FRS”) that are relevant to its operations
and effective for the annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2008. The adoption of these new/revised
FRSs and INT FRSs does not result in changes to the Group’s and Company’s accounting policies and has no
material effect on the amounts reported for the current or prior years except as disclosed below.
FRS 107 - Financial Instruments: Disclosures and amendments to FRS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements
relating to capital disclosures
The Group and Company have adopted FRS 107 with effect from annual periods beginning on or after January
1, 2008. The new Standard has resulted in an expansion of the disclosures in these fi nancial statements
regarding the Group and the Company’s fi nancial instruments. The Group and the Company have also
presented information regarding their objectives, policies and processes for managing capital (see Note 4) as
required by the amendments to FRS 1 which are effective from annual periods beginning on or after January 1,
2008.
At the date of authorisation of these fi nancial statements, the following FRSs, INT FRSs and amendments to
FRS that are relevant to the Group and the Company were issued but not effective:
FRS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements (Revised)
FRS 23 - Borrowing Costs (Revised)
FRS 108 - Operating Segments
Consequential amendments were also made to various standards as a result of these new/revised standards.

annual report 2008 43
NOTES TOFINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2008
2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d)
The management anticipates that the adoption of the above FRSs and INT FRSs and amendments to FRS in
future periods will have no material impact on the fi nancial statements of the Company and the Group in the
period of their initial adoption except for the following:
FRS 1 – Presentation of Financial Statements (Revised)
FRS 1 (Revised) will be effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2009, and will change
the basis for presentation and structure of the fi nancial statements. It does not change the recognition,
measurement or disclosure of specifi c transactions and other events required by other FRSs.
FRS 108 – Operating Segments
FRS 108 will be effective for annual fi nancial statements beginning on or after January 1, 2009 and supersedes
FRS 14 – Segment Reporting. FRS 108 requires operating segments to be identifi ed on the basis of internal
reports about components of the Group that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker in
order to allocate resources to the segment and to assess its performance. In contrast, FRS 14 requires an
entity to identify two sets of segments (business and geographical), using a risks and rewards approach, with
the entity’s system of internal fi nancial reporting to key management personnel serving only as the starting point
for the identifi cation of such segments. As a result, following the adoption of FRS 108, the identifi cation of the
Group’s reportable segments may change.
FRS 23 – Borrowing Costs (Revised)
FRS 23 (Revised) will be effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2009 and eliminates
the option available under the previous version of FRS 23 to recognise all borrowing costs immediately as an
expense. An entity shall capitalise borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction
or production of a qualifying asset as part of the cost of that asset. As the change in the accounting policy is to
be applied prospectively, there will be no impact on amounts reported for 2008.
BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION - The consolidated fi nancial statements incorporate the fi nancial statements of the
Company and entities (including special purpose entities) controlled by the Company (its subsidiaries). Control
is achieved when the Company has the power to govern the fi nancial and operating policies of an entity so as
to obtain benefi ts from its activities.
The results of subsidiaries acquired during the fi nancial year are included in the consolidated profi t and loss
statement from the effective date of acquisition.
Where necessary, adjustments are made to the fi nancial statements of subsidiaries to bring the accounting
policies used in line with those used by other members of the Group.
All signifi cant intra-Group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated on consolidation.
Investments in subsidiaries and associates are carried at cost less any impairment in net recoverable value
that has been recognised in the profi t and loss statement in the Company’s and Group’s fi nancial statements
respectively.

NOTES TOFINANCIAL STATEMENTSDECEMBER 31, 2008

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d)
MINORITY INTERESTS - Minority interests in the net assets of consolidated subsidiaries are identifi ed separately
from the Group’s equity therein. Minority interests consist of the amount of those interests at the date of the
original business combination (see below) and the minority’s share of changes in equity since the date of the
combination. Losses applicable to the minority in excess of the minority’s interest in the subsidiary’s equity are
allocated against the interests of the Group except to the extent that the minority has a binding obligation and
is able to make an additional investment to cover its share of those losses.
BUSINESS COMBINATIONS - The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the purchase method. The
cost of the acquisition is measured at the aggregate of the fair values, at the date of exchange, of assets
given, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity instruments issued by the Group in exchange for control of the
acquiree, plus any costs directly attributable to the business combination. The acquiree’s identifi able assets,
liabilities and contingent liabilities that meet the conditions for recognition under FRS 103 are recognised at
their fair values at the acquisition date.
Goodwill arising on acquisition is recognised as an asset and initially measured at cost, being the excess of
the cost of the business combination over the Group’s interest in the net fair value of the identifi able assets,
liabilities and contingent liabilities recognised. If, after reassessment, the Group’s interest in the net fair value
of the acquiree’s identifi able assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities exceeds the cost of the business
combination, the excess is recognised immediately in the profi t and loss statement.
The interest of minority shareholders in the acquiree is initially measured at the minority’s proportion of the net
fair value of the assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities recognised.
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - Financial assets and fi nancial liabilities are recognised on the Group’s balance
sheet when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Effective interest method
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a fi nancial instrument and of
allocating interest income or expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly
discounts estimated future cash receipts or payments (including all fees on points paid or received that form
an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through
the expected life of the fi nancial instrument, or where appropriate, a shorter period. Income and expense is
recognised on an effective interest rate basis for debt instruments other than those fi nancial instruments “at fair
value through profi t or loss”.
Financial assets
Investments are recognised and de-recognised on a trade date where the purchase or sale of an investment is
under a contract whose terms require delivery of the investment within the timeframe established by the market
concerned, and are initially measured at fair value, plus transaction costs except for those fi nancial assets
classifi ed as at fair value through profi t or loss which are initially measured at fair value.
Other fi nancial assets are classifi ed into the following specifi ed categories: fi nancial assets “available-for-sale”
and “loans and receivables”. The classifi cation depends on the nature and purpose of fi nancial assets and is
determined at the time of initial recognition.

value. Fair value is determined in the manner described in Note 4. Gains and losses arising from changes
in fair value are recognised directly in the valuation reserve with the exception of impairment losses and
foreign exchange gains and losses on monetary assets which are recognised directly in the profi t and
loss statement. Where the investment is disposed of or is determined to be impaired, the cumulative gain
or loss previously recognised in the valuation reserve is included in the profi t and loss statement for the
period. Dividends on available-for-sale equity instruments are recognised in the profi t and loss statement when
the Company’s right to receive payments is established. The fair value of available-for-sale monetary assets
denominated in a foreign currency is determined in that foreign currency and translated at the spot rate at
reporting date. The change in fair value attributable to translation differences are recognised in equity.
Loans and receivables
Trade, other and loan receivables that have fi xed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active
market are classifi ed as “loans and receivables”. Loans and receivables are measured at initial recognition at fair
value, and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method less impairment.
Interest is recognised by applying the effective interest rate method, except for short-term receivables when the
recognition of interest would be immaterial.
Impairment of fi nancial assets
Financial assets are assessed for indicators of impairment at each balance sheet date. Financial assets are
impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial
recognition of the fi nancial asset, the estimated future cash fl ows of the investment have been impacted.
For fi nancial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of the impairment is the difference between the
asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash fl ows, discounted at the original
effective interest rate.
The carrying amount of the fi nancial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all fi nancial assets
with the exception of trade receivables where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance
account. When a trade receivable is uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent
recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the allowance account. Changes in the
carrying amount of the allowance account are recognised in the profi t and loss statement.
With the exception of available-for-sale equity instruments, if in a subsequent period, the amount of the
impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the
impairment loss was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed through the profi t and
loss statement to the extent the carrying amount of the investment at the date the impairment is reversed does
not exceed what the amortised cost would have been had the impairment not been recognised.
In respect of available-for-sale equity instruments, any subsequent increase in fair value after an impairment loss
is recognised directly in equity.

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d)
Financial assets (Cont’d)
Derecognition of fi nancial assets
The Group derecognises a fi nancial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash fl ows from the asset
expire, or it transfers the fi nancial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset
to another entity. If the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership
and continues to control the transferred asset, the Group recognises its retained interest in the asset and an
associated liability for amounts it may have to pay. If the Group retains substantially all the risks and rewards
of ownership of a transferred fi nancial asset, the Group continues to recognise the fi nancial asset and also
recognises a collateralised borrowing for the proceeds received.
Financial liabilities and equity instruments
Classifi cation as debt or equity
Financial liabilities and equity instruments issued by the Group are classifi ed according to the substance of the
contractual arrangements entered into and the defi nitions of a fi nancial liability and an equity instrument.
Equity instruments
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Group after deducting
all of its liabilities. Equity instruments are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
Financial liabilities
Trade and other payables are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are subsequently
measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method, with interest expense recognised on an
effective yield basis.
Interest-bearing borrowings are initially measured at fair value, and are subsequently measured at amortised
cost, using the effective interest rate method. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs)
and the settlement or redemption of borrowings is recognised over the term of the borrowings in accordance
with the Group’s accounting policy for borrowing costs (see below).
Financial guarantee contract liabilities are measured initially at their fair values and subsequently at the higher of
the amount of obligation under the contract recognised as a provision in accordance with FRS 37 - Provisions,
Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets and the amount initially recognised less cumulative amortisation in
accordance with FRS 18 - Revenue.
Derivative fi nancial instruments
The Group enters into derivative fi nancial instruments i.e. foreign exchange forward contracts to manage its
exposure to foreign exchange rate risk. Details of derivative fi nancial instruments are disclosed in Note 33(ii) to
the fi nancial statements.
Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value at the date a derivative contract is entered into and are
subsequently remeasured to their fair value at each balance sheet date. The resulting gain or loss is recognised
in the profi t and loss statement immediately unless the derivative is designated and effective as a hedging
instrument, in which event the timing of the recognition in the profi t and loss statement depends on the nature
of the hedge relationship.

Financial liabilities and equity instruments (Cont’d)
Derecognition of fi nancial liabilities
The Group derecognises fi nancial liabilities when, and only when, the Group’s obligations are discharged,
cancelled or they expire.
CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS - Where the outcome of a long-term construction contract can be estimated
reliably, revenue and costs are recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract activity at
the balance sheet date, as measured by the completion of a physical proportion of the contract work. For
fi xed price contract, the outcome of a construction contract can be estimated reliably when all the following
conditions are satisfi ed:
a) total contract revenue can be measured reliably;
b) it is probable that the economic benefi ts associated with the contract will fl ow to the Group;
c) both the contract costs to complete the contract and the stage of contract completion at the balance
sheet date can be measured reliably; and
d) the contract costs attributable to the contract can be clearly identifi ed and measured reliably so that
actual contract costs incurred can be compared with prior estimates.
Variations in contract work, claims and incentive payments are included to the extent that they have been
agreed with the customer.
Where the outcome of a construction contract cannot be estimated reliably, contract revenue is recognised to
the extent of contract costs incurred that it is probable will be recoverable. Contract costs are recognised as
expenses in the period in which they are incurred.
When it is probable that total contract costs will exceed total contract revenue, the expected loss is recognised
as an expense immediately.
LEASES - Leases are classifi ed as fi nance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the
risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classifi ed as operating leases.
The Group as lessee
Assets held under fi nance leases are recognised as assets of the Group at their fair value at the inception
of the lease or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding liability to
the lessor is included in the balance sheet as a fi nance lease obligation. Lease payments are apportioned
between fi nance charges and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on
the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are charged directly to the profi t and loss statement,
unless they are directly attributable to qualifying assets, in which case they are capitalised in accordance with
the Group’s general policy on borrowing costs (see below). Contingent rentals are recognised as expenses in
the period in which they are incurred.
Rentals payable under operating leases are charged to the profi t and loss statement on a straight-line basis
over the term of the relevant lease unless another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in
which economic benefi ts from the leased asset are consumed.

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d)
The Group as lessee (Cont’d)
In the event that lease incentives are received to enter into operating leases, such incentives are recognised as
a liability. The aggregate benefi t of incentives is recognised as a reduction of rental expense on a straight-line
basis, except where another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic
benefi ts from the leased asset are consumed.
INVENTORIES - Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost comprises direct
materials and, where applicable, direct labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing
the inventories to their present location and condition. Cost is calculated using the weighted average method.
Work-in-progress comprises vessels under construction for future sale. Cost is made up of direct materials,
direct labour cost, subcontractors cost, appropriate allocation of fi xed and variable production overheads.
Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price less all estimated costs to completion and costs to
be incurred in marketing, selling and distribution.
PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT - Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated
depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.
Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost of assets, other than property, plant and equipment under
construction, over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method, on the following bases:
Leasehold land and building - Over the remaining term of lease which is between 20 to 30 years
Vessels - 25 years, net of the residual value
Offi ce equipment, furniture and fi ttings - 4 to 20 years
Motor vehicles - 4 to 5 years
Machinery and equipment - 2 to 8 years
No depreciation is charged in respect of property, plant and equipment under construction-in-progress, which
includes yard development costs and costs for vessels under construction.
The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at each year end, with the
effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.
Assets held under fi nance leases are depreciated over their expected useful lives on the same basis as owned
assets or, if there is no certainty that the lessee will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term, the asset
shall be fully depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and its useful life.
The gain or loss arising on disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as
the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amounts of the asset and is recognised in the profi t
and loss statement.
GOODWILL - Goodwill arising on the acquisition of a subsidiary represents the excess of the cost of acquisition
over the Group’s interest in the net fair value of the identifi able assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of
the subsidiary recognised at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is initially recognised as an asset at cost and is
subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.

NOTES TOFINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2008
2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d)
Goodwill (Cont’d)
For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the Group’s cash-generating units
expected to benefi t from the synergies of the combination. Cash-generating units to which goodwill has been
allocated are tested for impairment annually, or more frequently when there is an indication that the unit may
be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than the carrying amount of the unit,
the impairment loss is allocated fi rst to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and
then to the other assets of the unit pro-rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. An
impairment loss recognised for goodwill is not reversed in a subsequent period.
On disposal of a subsidiary, the attributable amount of goodwill is included in the determination of the profi t or
loss on disposal.
IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS EXCLUDING GOODWILL - At each balance sheet date, the Group reviews the
carrying amounts of its assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered
an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order
to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable
amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to
which the asset belongs.
Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use,
the estimated future cash fl ows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that refl ects
current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specifi c to the asset.
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount,
the carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment
loss is recognised immediately in the profi t and loss statement.
Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is
increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does
not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for
the asset (cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in the
profi t and loss statement.
ASSOCIATES - An associate is an entity over which the Group has signifi cant infl uence and that is neither a
subsidiary nor an interest in a joint venture. Signifi cant infl uence is the power to participate in the fi nancial and
operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over those policies.
The results and assets and liabilities of associates are incorporated in these fi nancial statements using the equity
method of accounting. Under the equity method, investments in associates are carried in the consolidated
balance sheet at cost as adjusted for post-acquisition changes in the Group’s share of the net assets of the
associate. Losses of an associate in excess of the Group’s interest in that associate (which includes any long-
term interests that, in substance, form part of the Group’s net investment in the associate) are not recognised,
unless the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.
Where a Group entity transacts with an associate of the Group, profi ts and losses are eliminated to the extent
of the Group’s interest in the relevant associate.

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d)
PROVISIONS - Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as
a result of a past event, it is probable that the Group will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable
estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the
present obligation at the balance sheet date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the
obligation. Where a provision is measured using the cash fl ows estimated to settle the present obligation, its
carrying amount is the present value of those cash fl ows.
When some or all of the economic benefi ts required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a
third party, the receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received
and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably.
Provisions for warranty costs are recognised at the date of sale of the vessel, at the management’s best
estimate of the expenditure required to settle the Group’s obligation.
SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS – The Group issues equity-settled share-based payments to certain employees.
Equity-settled share-based payments are measured at fair value of the equity instruments (excluding the effect
of non market-based vesting conditions) at the date of grant. The fair value determined at the grant date of the
equity-settled share-based payments is charged to the profi t and loss statements.
REVENUE RECOGNITION - Revenue is measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable.
Revenue is reduced for estimated customer returns, rebates and other similar allowances.
Revenue from long-term construction contracts
Revenue from long-term construction contracts is recognised in accordance with the Group’s accounting policy
on construction contracts (see above).
Sale of vessels (other than those constructed under long-term construction contracts above)
Revenue from the sale of vessels (other than those constructed under long-term construction contracts above)
is recognised when all the following conditions are satisfi ed:
the Group has transferred to the buyer the signifi cant risks and rewards of ownership of the barges;
the Group retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with
ownership nor effective control over the barges sold;
the amount of revenue can be measured reliably;
it is probable that the economic benefi ts associated with the transaction will fl ow to the Group; and
the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.

Revenue from ship repairs and conversion
Revenue from rendering of ship repair and conversion services is recognised when the services have been
rendered.
Charter hire income
Charter hire income is recognised based on a time proportion basis in accordance with the daily or per voyage
charter rate stated in the charter hire agreement for the number of days under charter.
Interest income
Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest
rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life
of the fi nancial asset to that asset’s net carrying amount.
BORROWING COSTS - Borrowing costs are recognised in the profi t and loss statement in the period in which
they are incurred.
RETIREMENT BENEFIT COSTS - Payments to defi ned contribution retirement benefi t plans are charged as
an expense as they fall due. Payments made to state-managed retirement benefi t schemes, such as the
Singapore Central Provident Fund, are dealt with as payments to defi ned contribution plans where the Group’s
obligations under the plans are equivalent to those arising in a defi ned contribution retirement benefi t plan.
EMPLOYEE LEAVE ENTITLEMENT - Employees’ entitlements to annual leave are recognised when they accrue
to employees. A provision is made for the estimated liability for annual leave as a result of services rendered by
employees up to the balance sheet date.
INCOME TAX - Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profi t for the year. Taxable profi t differs from profi t as reported in
the profi t and loss statement because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in
other years and it further excludes items that are not taxable or tax deductible. The Group’s liability for current
tax is calculated using tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted in countries where the Company and its
subsidiaries operate by the balance sheet date.
Deferred tax is recognised on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the fi nancial
statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profi t, and are accounted
for using the balance sheet liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable
temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable
profi ts will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such assets and
liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition (other
than in a business combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable
profi t nor the accounting profi t.

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d)
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised on taxable temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries
and associates, except where the Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is
probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent
that it is no longer probable that suffi cient taxable profi ts will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be
recovered.
Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled
or the asset realised based on the tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted by the balance sheet date.
Deferred tax is charged or credited to the profi t and loss statement.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets
against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the
Group intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.
Current and deferred tax are recognised as an expense or income in the profi t and loss statement.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS AND TRANSLATION - The individual fi nancial statements of each
Group entity are measured and presented in the currency of the primary economic environment in which the
entity operates (its functional currency). The consolidated fi nancial statements of the Group and the balance
sheet of the Company are presented in Singapore dollars, which is the functional currency of the Company and
the presentation currency for the consolidated fi nancial statements.
In preparing the fi nancial statements of the individual entities, transactions in currencies other than the entity’s
functional currency are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing on the date of the transaction. At each
balance sheet date, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing
on the balance sheet date. Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies
are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items
that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.
Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items, and on retranslation of monetary items are
included in the profi t and loss statement for the period. Exchange differences arising on the retranslation of
non-monetary items carried at fair value are included in the profi t and loss statement for the period except
for differences arising on the retranslation of non-monetary items in respect of which gains or losses are
recognised directly in equity. For such non-monetary items, any exchange component of that gain or loss is
also recognised directly in equity.
For the purpose of presenting consolidated fi nancial statements of the Group and balance sheet of the
Company, the assets and liabilities of the Group’s and Company’s foreign operations (including comparatives)
are expressed in Singapore dollars using exchange rates prevailing on the balance sheet date. Income and
expense items (including comparatives) are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. Exchange
differences arising, if any, are classifi ed as equity and transferred to the Group’s and Company’s translation
reserve. Such translation differences are recognised in the profi t and loss statement in the period in which the
foreign operation is disposed of.

borrowings are taken to the foreign currency translation reserve.
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising from the acquisition of a foreign operation are treated as assets and
liabilities of the foreign operation and translated at the closing rate.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS - Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and demand deposits
that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignifi cant risk of changes in
value.
3 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY
In the application of the Group’s accounting policies, which are described in Note 2, management is required
to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are
not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical
experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting
estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or
in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
(i) Critical judgements in applying the Group’s accounting policies
The critical judgement, apart from those involving estimations, which the directors have made in the
process of applying the Group’s accounting policies, and that has the most signifi cant effect on the
amounts recognised in the fi nancial statements is as follows:
Estimation of percentage of completion for construction contracts
The Group recognised revenue and costs of construction contracts by reference to the stage of
completion of the contract activity at the balance sheet date. The stage of completion is measured
by the completion of a physical proportion of the contract work. Management exercises judgement in
determining the percentage of completion assigned to each physical milestone achieved. The physical
milestone is supported by either internally generated engineering reports or surveys performed by
independent surveyors. Management reviews the internally generated engineer reports and are satisfi ed
that the percentage of completion used for revenue recognition on construction contracts is reasonable.

3 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY (Cont’d)
(ii) Key sources of estimation uncertainty
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the
balance sheet date, that have a signifi cant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts
of assets and liabilities within the next fi nancial year, are discussed below.
Provision for losses on vessels with sales contracts and vessels held for sales or for charter
As at December 31, 2008, the Group’s net amount due from (to) customers for contract work,
inventories and plant and equipment included $111,436,000, $111,025,000 and $65,059,000
respectively (December 31, 2007: $(3,041,000), $61,871,000 and $21,689,000) in respect of vessels
projects. Determining the net realisable value of the vessel projects included in the gross amount due
from customers for contract work, inventories and plant and equipment is a matter of management’s
estimate. Such estimates may be highly judgemental due to the current volatile market conditions.
Management is not aware that any of the customers may not be able to meet their contractual
payment obligations in a timely manner or customers who may amend or cancel the existing contracts.
Accordingly, no provision for losses on vessels with sales contracts and vessels held for sales or charter
is required as at year end.
Impairment of goodwill
The Group tests goodwill annually for impairment or more frequently if there are indications that the
goodwill might be impaired. The goodwill relates primarily to two cash generating units (“CGU”).
During the current fi nancial year, the management uses the fair value less cost to sell of the two CGUs to
assess the impairment of goodwill amounting to $40,370,000.
In 2007, in determining the recoverable amounts of the CGUs, the management used value in use for
one CGU and fair value less cost to sell for another CGU. The value in use calculation required the Group
to estimate the future cash fl ows expected to arise from the cash-generating unit and a suitable discount
rate in order to calculate present value. The carrying amount of goodwill for which the management
used the value in use and fair value less cost to sell to assess the impairment as at December 31, 2007
was $3,384,000 and $1,717,000 respectively.
Useful lives and residual values of property, plant and equipment
The management exercises their judgement in estimating the useful lives and residual values of the
depreciable assets.
Depreciation is provided to write off the cost of property, plant and equipment, adjusted for residual
value, over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method. The carrying amounts of property,
plant and equipment are disclosed in Note 16 to the fi nancial statements.

4 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS, FINANCIAL RISKS AND CAPITAL RISKS MANAGEMENT
(a) Financial risk management policies and objectives
The Group operates internationally and is exposed to a variety of fi nancial risks, comprising market risk
(including foreign currency risk and interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.
The global fi nancial and capital markets have experienced severe credit crunch and volatility resulting
in changes of the Group’s exposure to these fi nancial risks or the manner in which it manages and
measures the risk. Market risk exposures are measured using sensitivity analysis indicated below.
i) Foreign currency risk
The Group’s foreign currency exposures arise primarily from the exchange rate movement of
foreign currencies, namely United States dollars, Singapore dollars, Euro and other currencies,
vis-a-vis the Singapore dollars and United States dollars, which are the functional currencies of
respective entities within the Group.
The Group assesses and monitors its current and projected foreign currency cash fl ows and
insofar as possible, reduces the exposure of the net position in each currency by borrowing in
those foreign currencies and utilises forward foreign currency contracts to manage the volatility of
future cash fl ows caused by fl uctuation in foreign currency exchange rates. The Group does not
hold or issue derivative fi nancial instruments for speculative purpose.
As at the end of the current fi nancial year, the outstanding forward foreign exchange contracts
are to buy Euro 7,500,000 (2007: Euro 1,000,000) and to sell US dollars 11,576,100 (2007: US
dollars 1,445,000). A loss of approximately $1,478,000 arising from the current fi nancial year
changes in the fair value of the forward contracts has been charged to the profi t and loss for the
current fi nancial year.
In 2007, the fair value of the derivative fi nancial instruments and the fair value changes of the
outstanding forward exchange contracts were not recognised on the balance sheet and profi t and
loss statement respectively as such adjustments were not material.

i) Foreign currency risk (Cont’d)
Accordingly, the effects of the foreign currency risk from the above intercompany balances have
been included in the sensitivity analysis for currency risk.
In management’s opinion, the sensitivity analysis is not representative of the Group’s inherent
foreign currency risk as the exposure as at the reporting date does not refl ect the exposure during
the fi nancial year.
Sensitivity analysis for currency risk
If the relevant foreign currency rates vis-a-vis the functional currencies of the respective entities
within the Group fl uctuate by 5% (2007 : 5%) with all other variables held constant, the effects will
be as follows:
(1) Group
If foreign currency of the United States dollars are to strengthen/weaken by 5% against the
functional currency of Singapore dollars, net profi t will decrease/increase by approximately
$9,769,000 (2007 : decrease/increase by approximately $7,941,000).
If foreign currency of the Singapore dollars are to strengthen/weaken by 5% against
the functional currency of United States dollars, net profi t will decrease/increase by
approximately $11,379,000 (2007 : decrease/increase by approximately $10,253,000).
Considering the net effect, the net profit of the Group will increase/decrease by
approximately $1,610,000 (2007 : increase/decrease by approximately $2,312,000) if the
United States dollars are to strengthen/weaken by 5% against the Singapore dollars.
Based on the same analysis in relation to foreign currency of United States dollars and
Singapore dollars against the functional currency of Indonesia rupiah, any impact on profi t
or loss is not material.
If foreign currency of the Euro are to strengthen/weaken by 5% against the functional
currencies of the respective entities, net profi t will increase/decrease by approximately
$153,000 (2007 : increase/decrease by approximately $145,000).
(2) Company
If the United States dollars are to strengthen/weaken by 5% against the
Singapore dollars, net profit will decrease/increase by approximately $6,759,000
(2007 : increase/decrease by approximately $3,342,000).
If the Euro are to strengthen/weaken by 5% against the Singapore dollars, net profi t will
decrease/increase by approximately $46,000 (2007 : increase/decrease by approximately
$145,000).
The foreign currency risk has limited impact on equity of the Group and Company.

ii) Interest rate risk (Cont’d)
Sensitivity analysis for interest rate risk
If interest rates increase/decrease by 0.5% (2007 : 0.5%) with all other variables
held constant, the Group’s and Company’s profit for the year after tax would have
been lower/higher by approximately $1,473,600 (2007 : $756,000) and $1,217,226
(2007 : $441,000) respectively as a result of higher/lower interest expense on fl oating rate bank
borrowings.
iii) Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting
in a loss to the Group.
The Group’s principal fi nancial assets are bank balances and cash, trade and other receivables.
The credit risk on liquid funds is limited because the Group has cash balances placed with
reputable international fi nancial institutions.
The Group’s credit risk is primarily attributable to its trade receivables. The Group has adopted
a policy of dealing with creditworthy counterparties and when necessary, will require advance
payments from customers with no track record of credit history.
For shipbuilding revenue, the Group generally requires a down payment of 20% of the contract
value within 10 days of signing the memorandum of sale agreement. The Group provides a
refund guarantee for the down-payment paid, if required. A further 10% of the contract value
may be required to be paid as progress payment upon achievement of certain milestones. The
remainder of the contract price is typically paid after trial and commissioning and before delivery
of the vessel. As a policy, the Group only commences negotiations with customers of good
repute. Before signing the sales contract with the customers, the Group screens the fi nancial
standing of the customers and deal with customers of sound fi nancial standing. In addition, prior
to the release of the vessels from the shipyard, the Group would collect the full amount billed in
relation to shipbuilding projects and the majority of the amount billed in relation to ship repair and
conversion projects.
There is no credit term for shipbuilding customers. The average credit term on ship repair,
conversion and chartering to customer is 30 days (2007 : 30 days).
Concentrations of credit risk exist when changes in economic, industry or geographic factors
similarly affect Groups of counterparties where aggregate credit exposure is signifi cant in relation
to the Group’s total credit exposure.
At the balance sheet date, the Group’s top 3 customers for which invoices have been raised
account for 82.3% (2007 : 78.5%) of the Group’s outstanding trade receivables from outside
parties. In addition, 90% (2007: 90%) of the Group’s future revenue for which sales contracts
have been entered will be contributed by 3 (2007: 2) of its customers and their associates.

iii) Credit risk (Cont’d)
The gross carrying amount of fi nancial assets recorded in the fi nancial statements represents the
Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk.
(i) Financial assets that are neither past due nor impaired
Bank deposits are mainly deposits with reputable banks in Singapore. The Group’s trade
receivables are all neither past due nor impaired as these amounts are due from customers
which the Group has assessed to be creditworthy.
(ii) Financial assets that are past due and/or impaired
There is no fi nancial asset that is past due and/or impaired. Majority of trade receivables
have a good collection history because of the progress billing and payments are made by
customers in accordance with sales memorandum.
(iii) Financial assets that are past due and not impaired
There is fi nancial asset that is past due not impaired as a result of quality credit worthiness
of the customers.
iv) Liquidity risk
In line with its liquidity risk management policies, the Group maintains suffi cient cash via internally
generated cash fl ow and adequate amount of committed credit facilities. The Group’s treasury
function prepares the periodic cash fl ow projection of the Group for the next 12 months to assess
and monitor the ability of the Group to repay the borrowings from fi nancial institutions as and when
they are fall due and also maintains a mixture of short-term revolving borrowings and medium/
long term loans to fund working capital requirements. Due to the Group’s nature of business, it
maintains fl exibility in funding by ensuring that adequate working capital lines are available at any
one time.
With the reduced credit availability as a consequence of the global credit crunch, the Group has
stepped up its liquidity risk management approach as compared to prior years as outlined below:
(i) The Group has built a more comprehensive cash fl ow forecasts model to enable it to
evaluate the impact of the changes in various assumptions on projected cash fl ow.
(ii) The Group has continued in its effort to secure additional credit line, if necessary, to fi nance
the Group’s growth.
(iii) The Group has increased its scrutiny over its compliance with fi nancial covenants outlined
in agreements with fi nancial institutions.

v) Fair value of fi nancial assets and fi nancial liabilities
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, trade and other
payables and short-term borrowings from fi nancial institutions approximate their respective fair
values due to the relatively short-term maturity of these fi nancial instruments.
The carrying amounts of certain other fi nancial assets approximate their fair values. The fair value
of publicly traded instruments is based on quoted market values.
The fair values of borrowings and fi nance leases from fi nancial institutions and loans from related
parties are stated in Notes 17, 21 and 22 to the fi nancial statements respectively.
(b) Capital risk management policies and objectives
The Group’s capital risk management objectives are to safeguard the Group’s ability to continue as a
going concern and to maintain an optimal capital structure so as to maximise shareholder value. To
achieve its capital risk management’s objectives, the Group may adjust the amount of dividend payment,
return capital to shareholders, issue new shares, obtain new borrowings or sell assets to reduce
borrowings.
The Group monitors capital via the debt-to-equity ratio and the net debt-to-equity ratio which are
calculated as total debt divided by equity and total debt net of cash and bank balances and pledged
deposits (“Net debt”) divided by equity. Total debt comprises “Borrowing from fi nancial institutions”,
“Finance leases” and “Loan from related parties” as shown in the consolidated balance sheet. Equity is
the “equity attributable to equity holders of the Company” as shown in the consolidated balance sheet.
In addition, the Group also specifi cally monitors the debt-to-equity ratio of its fi nancial covenants stated
in the agreements with the fi nancial institutions providing the facilities to the Group.
The debt-equity ratio as at December 31, 2008 and 2007 is as follows:
Group
2008 2007
$’000 $’000

During the current fi nancial year, the Group acquired an additional 44% equity interest in a subsidiary from a
related party for a consideration of $34,460,000 resulting in an increase in goodwill of $35,269,000.
The Group tests goodwill annually for impairment, or more frequently if there are indications that goodwill might
be impaired.
The goodwill relates primarily to two cash generating units (“CGU”).
In 2008, in determining the recoverable amounts of the CGUs, management uses fair value less cost to sell
for both CGUs, which is based on the independent valuation report dated December 2008 for one CGU with
goodwill arising amounting to $37,731,000, using the sales comparison approach.
In 2007, in determining the recoverable amounts of the CGUs, management used value in use for one CGU
and market value for another CGU. The value in use method was used for the fi rst CGU as it had been
controlled and actively managed by the Company for more than one year and as such, the Company was able
to reasonably estimate the future cash fl ows from this CGU. The market value for the other CGU was used to
assess the impairment of goodwill in relation to this CGU as it is acquired and managed by the Company from
December 2007. The management was not able to reasonably estimate the future cash fl ows of this CGU. For
the CGU where its recoverable amounts were determined from value in use calculations, the key assumptions
for the value in use calculations were those regarding the discount rates, growth rates and expected changes
to selling prices and direct costs during the period. Management estimated discount rates using pre-tax rates
that refl ect current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specifi c to the CGUs. The
growth rates were based on industry growth forecasts. Changes in selling prices and direct costs were based
on past practices and expectations of future changes in the market. The Group prepared cash fl ow forecasts
derived from the expected project revenue based on the completion date as estimated by management for the
next fi ve years. The rate used to discount the forecast cash fl ows from the CGU was 12% per annum.

22 LOANS FROM RELATED PARTIES (Cont’d)
The entities in the Group and the related party have entered into an offsetting arrangement to set-off the
receivables and payables balances.
In 2007, the trade and other receivables balances included amounts collected by related parties on behalf of
the Group and receivables arising from the sales of barges to a related party while the other payables balance
related to amount paid to suppliers by the related party on behalf of the Group and advances to the Group.
In 2008, the other payables balance includes advances extended by the related party to the Group and
Company. Out of the total loan payable to the related party, the Group and Company converted $52,000,000
of the total loan amount from a related party into a fi ve-year interest bearing term loan.
As at the balance sheet date, the term loan amounting to $46,800,000 (2007 : $Nil) is unsecured and bears
interest at 2% (2007 : Nil%) per annum above the prime lending rate or 7% (2007 : Nil%) per annum whichever
is higher with an effective interest rate of 7.5%. It is repayable in 20 equal quarterly instalments of $2,600,000
commencing September 2008.
The remaining loan from related parties amounting to S$39,526,000 (2007 : $51,381,000) has an average
credit period of 180 days and bears interest at 4% (2007 : 4%) per annum on overdue balances. These loans
are unsecured, interest-free and are not repayable within the 12 months from the balance sheet date. The
imputed interest expense on the interest-free related party loan amounting to $359,000 (2007: $32,000) has
been waived and recorded as capital reserves (Note 24).
These loans are initially measured at fair value and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the
effective interest method, with interest expense recognised on an effective yield basis. The carrying amounts
of these loans approximate their fair value as interest rates approximate the market rates prevailing at balance
sheet date.

25 MINORITY INTERESTS
In 2007, one of the Company’s subsidiaries, PT Batamec, was in a capital defi cit position and is dependent on
the Company and a shareholder with 44% equity interest for continuing fi nancial support. As the shareholder
has provided such undertaking, the shareholder continued to share net losses of PT Batamec beyond its
capital contribution which resulted in a minority interest receivable balance.
During the financial year, the Group acquired the 44% equity interest from the shareholder
(Note 15).

Company for the fi nancial years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 over the weighted average number of
ordinary shares of 994,140,792 (2007 : 975,000,000) respectively is adjusted for the share sub-division as if it
had taken place at January 1, 2007.
There were no signifi cant dilution of earnings for the fi nancial years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 as
there were no signifi cant potential ordinary shares outstanding.

The subsidiary did not contribute to the Group’s profi t before tax between the date of acquisition and December
31, 2007.
If the acquisition had been completed on January 1, 2007, the impact will be a reduction of the Group’s profi t
for the year for 2007 by $491,000. There would have been no impact to the Group’s revenue as the subsidiary
derived solely from the Group.

STATISTICS OFSHAREHOLDINGS
AS AT 2 MARCH 2009
By virtue of Section 7 of the Companies Act, SCPEL is deemed to be interested in certain Shares owned by Business Companion
Investments as a result of the rights of exchange granted by Business Companion Investments over Shares owned by it to SCPEL as
follows:
(a) In relation to the fi rst tranche of S$35.0 million, SCPEL can elect to convert it, together with the Applicable Interest, as at the point of
the fi rst exchange, at an exchange price per Share of $0.4743, in accordance with the terms of the Exchangeable Loan Agreement. As
the Applicable Interest for this tranche (which value depends on the date SCPEL chooses to exchange) is currently unascertainable, it
is not possible to ascertain the full extent of SCPEL’s deemed interests in those Shares for this tranche. Purely for illustrative purposes
only, on the basis that SCPEL only elects to exchange this fi rst tranche of S$35.0 million into Shares (without taking into account the
Applicable Interest in relation to this tranche), SCPEL is deemed to be interested in 73,792,958 Shares which represent 6.2% of the
Company’s issued share capital as at the Latest Practicable Date. Such fi gures are subject to change to the extent that the Applicable
Interest accrued in relation to this tranche pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Exchangeable Loan Agreement is converted
into Shares as well.
(b) In relation to the second tranche of S$35.0 million, SCPEL can elect to convert it, together with the Applicable Interest as at the point
of the second exchange at an exchange price per Share which will be an amount equivalent to 10 times the fully diluted earnings per
Share, i.e S$0.572 based on the Company’s audited consolidated accounts for FY2008. As the Applicable Interest for this tranche
(which value depends on the date SCPEL chooses to exchange) is currently unascertainable, it is not possible to ascertain the full
extent of SCPEL’s deemed interests in the Shares for this tranche. Purely for illustrative purposes only, on the basis that SCPEL only
elects to exchange this second tranche of S$35.0 million into Shares (without taking into account the Applicable Interest in relation to
this tranche), SCPEL is deemed to be interested in 61,188,811 Shares which represent 5.2% of the Company’s issued share capital.
Such fi gures are subject to change to the extent that the Applicable Interest accrued in relation to this tranche pursuant to the terms
and conditions of the Exchangeable Loan Agreement is converted into Shares as well.
4. The total interests of SCPEL is currently unascertainable for the reasons set out in note 3. above.
