ANNUAL REPORT 2016 | DAMANSARA REALTY BERHAD 19

The year under review saw the Group executed several strategic actions in order to accelerate corporate recovery and enhance shareholder value, such as efforts to increase the Group’s project base, leverage synergies, enhance operational effi ciencies and bolster corporate governance.

In a very eventful year, the management team conducted a rigorous corporate review led by the new Group CEO Encik Brian Iskandar bin Zulkarim and had put in place a Strategic Restructuring Plan (“SRP”) exercise to drive its transformation. I am confident that we have begun a new chapter in transforming Damansara Realty to a stronger corporation able to unlock its combined strengths and capabilities to enhance shareholder value.

The Group’s fi nancial performance in FY2016 must be viewed in the context of the seeds we have sown. In a challenging year amidst economic and geopolitical uncertainty, the revenue across our subsidiaries declined to RM183.6 million in FY2016 from RM207.1 million in FY2015. Gross profit declined to RM19.3 million from RM47.3 million over the comparative periods as a result of higher operating expenses and costs of sales in FY2016. In spite of these, the Board is hopeful that the transformation plan which focuses on growing and sustaining medium to long term revenue streams, will bear fruit.

On 2 June 2016, the Group announced that it will issue redeemable convertible notes to raise up to RM150 million to seize and execute property development opportunities in Malaysia. The Group intends to use the proceeds to develop projects in Putrajaya, Kuantan and Johor Bahru. I believe this will be a major catalyst for growth that will strengthen our balance sheet and boost trading liquidity.

There had been many new appointments across the Group at various levels. As part of the Board’s commitment to refresh itself, both Dato’ Sohaimi bin Shahadan and the late Dato’ Ar. Wan Mohammad Khair-il Anuar bin Wan Ahmad had stepped down from the Board as Independent and Non-Executive Directors. I thank them for their contributions. The appointment of Encik Brian Iskandar bin Zulkarim as the Group CEO on 1 September 2016 will allow the Group to tap his corporate transformation expertise as it embarks on a new chapter. On 1 September 2016, Encik Zain Azrai bin Zainnuddin was appointed as the Group CFO.

The Group has established an Executive Committee (“EXCO”) on 22 November 2016 which comprises the Group CEO, Group CFO, Group GMs and subsidiary MDs to collectively implement the Group’s restructuring plan.

The Board is mindful that much more remains to be done to realise Damansara Realty’s full potential. While the Board recognizes the challenges that lie ahead, the Board retains its utmost faith in the ability of the management team and the strategic initiatives to be executed. The Board believes that recent signifi cant project wins, together with expected higher revenue contribution over both medium and long terms will position the Group to seize new opportunities and embark on a new phase of growth.

I wish to express my deepest gratitude to all stakeholders for their continuous support. I believe the Group has emerged from a diffi cult year, and is cautiously optimistic as it lays the groundwork to accelerate our corporate recovery. Recognition should also be given to fellow Board members for their guidance, support and advice.

Finally, on behalf of the Board, I would like to extend my heartfelt appreciation to the management team and employees for their dedication and commitment to bring the Group forward.

Thank you.

EXECUTIVE VICE CHAIRMAN’S MESSAGE

The FY2016 has been a busy one with significant developments especially for our property development division.

One of the most signifi cant highlights is the proposed joint-venture with Hong Kong-listed Country Garden Holdings Company Limited (“Country Garden”), one of China’s largest property developers.

This major milestone will play a signifi cant role in the Group’s efforts to accelerate its property development business in various parts of Malaysia. Although sentiments about the property market remain cautious, we are optimistic that investors will be able to discern the quality and differentiating attributes of the Group’s projects.

ANNUAL REPORT 2016 | DAMANSARA REALTY BERHAD 21

For the past few years in Johor Bahru, there has been a mismatch of supply and demand as most homes built in the urban areas are catered for the high-end market. We are going to amend this by providing affordable homes to Malaysians.

On 14 October 2016, the Group announced the formation of a joint-venture with Country Garden, to develop a 53-acre freehold land parcel in Johor Bahru into a mega integrated township known as Central Park. The Group will hold 30%-stake in DAC Properties Sdn Bhd with the remaining 70% held by Hong Kong-listed Country Garden.

Development is expected to commence in the fi rst half of the fi nancial year ending 2017 (“FY2017”) and will span over eight years. The integrated township development, located in the Tebrau district and 5 kilometres to the north-west of Johor Bahru city centre, will comprise of commercial shop lots and amenities, and affordable residential units targeted at young genuine buyers.

In Johor, huge development projects and infrastructure works have been announced, such as the Johor-Bahru-Singapore Rapid Transfer System link and the Kuala Lumpur-Singapore High Speed Rail. These will contribute to a major enhancement of infrastructure in this region and raise the profile as a preferred location for residents, businesses and industries.

Our partnership with Country Garden represents a signifi cant opportunity for the Group to execute a large-scale project alongside one of China’s most reputable developers. It is a testament to the strong confi dence in our ability to implement and complete a development of such scale.

I believe Central Park will play a crucial role to accelerate the Group’s corporate growth. The execution of the various agreements between JCorp, Country Garden and Damansara Realty will also strengthen our balance sheet. I foresee the partnership to generate a steady and signifi cant income over the next few years.

Subsequent to FY2016, Central Park held its grand opening in March 2017 that attracted many homebuyers and potential investors.

The Group is also developing a 500-acre land parcel in Kuantan known as Bandar Damansara Kuantan, which has been rebranded to Damansara Hills Kuantan.

The luxurious development, which will be completed by the fi nancial ending 31 December 2018 (“FY2018”), boasts 49 spacious and private terraced houses. It is uniquely situated next to an expansive park and is just 19 kilometres from Kuantan city centre.

As announced in September 2016, the Group, via a joint venture, won a RM124 million contract to provide facilities management and catering service to Petronas’ Refinery and Petrochemical Integrated Development (“Rapid”) project in Pengerang, Johor. This underscores the strength of our facilities management services division and we are proud to play a part in the largest integrated refi nery and petrochemical hub in the region.

A NEW ERA

Damansara Realty is simultaneously scaling up the size and scope of its property development projects while building up its capabilities in integrated facilities management. Under the leadership of Encik Brian Iskandar bin Zulkarim, our new Group CEO, major actions have been executed over the past few months which will yield positive results in the near future. Through the disciplined execution of our strategies, we will strive to return to profi tability.

APPRECIATION

I would like to extend my utmost gratitude to our business partners, fi nancial associates, Federal and State Government Agencies and Regulatory Authorities for your cooperation and continuous support over the past year.

Thank you to all our shareholders and investors for their trust. Last but not least, I would like to thank the Board members, management and employees for their commitment and all their hard work.

Together, we will continue to achieve excellence in the coming years. I look forward to another exciting year ahead with all of you.

GROUP CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER’S REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

STRATEGIC RESTRUCTURING PLAN

Since my appointment as the Group CEO in September 2016, the management team under my leadership has put in tremendous efforts to identify issues and challenges, perform business analysis as well as introduce the Strategic Restructuring Plan (“SRP”).

Changing the Group’s direction successfully requires detailed analysis of all our businesses followed by dedication and persistence to ensure proper execution. Strategic changes in business direction with prudent fi nancial management to prioritise immediate initiatives were made. This was done through a transformation plan comprising ‘diagnostic’, ‘prescription’ and ‘health-plan’ phases which was presented to and approved by the Board in November 2016. Such transformation plans typically take 100 days, but our team worked quickly to formulate it in only 60.

To return to profi tability, signifi cant changes have to be made. In the coming months, the focus will be to build a strong foundation for growth. As Damansara Realty operates in various competitive industries, there is a need for us to constantly evolve. On that note, we introduced the SRP and it is envisioned to be the catalyst to propel the Group forward. With utmost discipline, we set internal goals for the team that can be measured in various periods-ranging from immediate quick wins to longer term initiatives and action plans.

As part of the strategy, we have begun to centralise various management and operational functions – including procurement, fi nance and human resources – with a view to improve Group-wide cost management and standardize business processes. Recognising the need of a strong corporate headquarter, we have established new divisions such as Corporate Planning & Transformation, Risk Management and Corporate Communication. These divisions will allow us to better monitor processes holistically as we raise the profi le of the Damansara Realty brand, leveraging on synergies between business units.

The SRP identifi es 8 key transformation drivers which include:

1. Upholding Governance 5. Enhancing Business Acumen

2. Raising Leadership Competency 6. Rebuilding Reputation

3. Setting Effective Performance Measures 7. Revamping Organization Structure

4. Creation of a Strategic Business Plan 8. Ensuring Effective Cash Flow Management (including granular level action plans)

PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT

The current challenges faced by Malaysia’s property market are well known. These include high construction costs, Government cooling measures, as well as weak consumer sentiments. Despite these, the Group’s property division has made signifi cant headway.

On 14 October 2016, the Group announced that it would form a joint-venture with Country Garden, to develop a 53-acre freehold land parcel in Johor Bahru into an integrated township known as Central Park and has by been approved by the Shareholders at the Extraordinary General Meeting held on the 11 April 2017.

The joint-venture, DAC Properties Sdn Bhd, is 30% held by the Group’s wholly-owned subsidiary and 70% held by Hong Kong-listed Country Garden. This partnership with one of China’s largest developers will elevate the profi le of Damansara Realty and enable us to showcase our abilities on a bigger scale.

The Central Park site is part of a larger 63-acre land parcel (“TDA Land”) that the Group will acquire for RM141.53 million, following a development rights agreement signed in 2002 and 2003 with JCorp, DAC Properties will pay RM130.3 million to JCorp for the 53-acre site. Separately, the Group will acquire from JCorp the remaining 10 acres of TDA Land, which comprises completed shop offi ces and undeveloped land, for RM11.23 million.

The Group is developing 49 residential units on a project known as Damansara Hills 1 – which sits on a portion of a 500-acre land parcel in Kuantan. We launched our showrooms in April 2017 and expect revenue contribution from this project to kick in commencing FY2017.

Damansara Aliff Square, located in Tampoi, comprises a total of 39 multi-storey shop lots. We have sold 22 units to date and expect to recognise sales from the remaining units in FY2017.

GROUP CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER’S REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

INTEGRATED FACILITIES MANAGEMENT (“IFM”)

Under the IFM business, we now offer planning, development, maintenance, operation, car park solutions and management of assets, through our subsidiaries, TMR Urusharta (M) Sdn Bhd (“TMR”), HC Duraclean Sdn Bhd (“HCD”) and Metro Parking (M) Sdn Bhd (“Metro Parking”).

This strategic shift is intended to create sharper focus and better positions for Damansara Realty to capture the increasing number of clients who prefer to deal with a single service provider. In addition, we will be able to leverage synergies and increase opportunities across our businesses.

TMR and HCD have grown in the past few years to evolve into professional service providers that manage over 10 million square feet of property and assets for the Government as well as private and government-linked companies throughout Malaysia. To ensure global standards are upheld, various subsidiaries have received certifi cations such as ISO9001, ISO14001 and OHSAS18001.

Metro Parking continues to position itself as a premier car park operator across Asia Pacific with over 200 car parks comprising of 60,000 parking bays under the management in Malaysia, Singapore and Philippines. Going forward, Metro Parking will progressively roll out increased automation for its car parks, even as it moves towards managing its own car park assets. Metro Parking also intends to enter into collaborations with public transport providers to further expand its market share.

ANNUAL REPORT 2016 | DAMANSARA REALTY BERHAD 25

We are proud to state that our clients include household names such as Petronas, JCorp, Malaysia Airports Holdings Berhad, Permodalan Nasional Berhad and Telekom Malaysia Berhad.

Underscoring our proven track record and strength of our facilities management offerings, the Group’s joint venture with L.C. Catering Sdn Bhd, was awarded a RM124.0 million contract to provide facilities management and catering services to Rapid. As announced on 26 September 2016, the contract covers general cleaning, pest control, landscaping, mechanical & electrical and civil & structural services for the temporary executive village and management office from 1 November 2016. Most importantly, this joint venture opens up the opportunity for us to be involved in the food and beverage industry. The 38-month contract will contribute to Group’s revenue until FY2019.

As announced on 22 April 2016, the Group also won a RM6.9 million contract from the Ministry of Health Malaysia to provide cleaning services for Health Departments in the Federal Territory Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya for three years commencing 1 May 2016.

We are confident that the combined expertise across our businesses will help the Group establish itself as the preferred asset and facilities management solutions provider in the region.

HEALTHCARE CONSULTANCY

Healthcare Technical Services Sdn Bhd (“HTS”) operates in a niche healthcare consultancy segment that includes hospital planning & design, technical advisory for mechanical & electrical services, hospital equipment and logistics, amongst others. Since its establishment in 1995, HTS has grown rapidly to become a global leader in the industry. It has established a proven track record of having consulted and built over 30 hospitals including in countries such as Poland, Saudi Arabia, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Laos and Papua New Guinea.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Our scorecard for FY2016 must be seen against the various initiatives which we have executed.

For FY2016, the Group’s revenue decreased to RM183.6 million from RM207.1 million a year ago due to lower contributions across all segments. The parking segment, which is the Group’s main revenue driver has contributed 62.6% of the total sales, saw revenue decreasing 3.6% to RM115.0 million in FY2016. The property services segment

contributed RM64.7 million in revenue, accounting for 35.3% of total revenue. Revenue from the property development segment decreased to RM3.8 million accounting for 2.1% of total revenue, due largely to lower contributions from its Aliff Square 1 development – 3 units were sold in FY2016, while 18 units were sold in FY2015, as the project was completed in FY2016.

The Group reported a net loss attributable to shareholders of RM26.8 million in FY2016 from RM4.4 million in FY2015. The loss in FY2016 included the following:

Item RM million

Non-recurring interest expenses in relation to the unwinding of an amount due to a trade payable

9.2

Recognition of construction cost due to the commencement of the Perumahan Penjawat Awam 1 Malaysia Project (“PPA1M”)

8.9

Write-back payables (11.8)

One-off provision for doubtful debts and receivables

2.7

Write-off for property, plant and equipment 2.2

Total 11.2

Excluding the items stated in the above table, the Group would have reported a net loss attributable to shareholders of RM 0.9 million in FY2016.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSIONAND ANALYSIS

INTRODUCTION

Damansara Realty began its operations in the 60’s as a renowned property developer and asset management company. Since then, it has evolved to a diversifi ed group of companies with the addition of various facilities and asset management subsidiaries in 2012. The Group’s key subsidiaries can be categorized into 3 major business segments; Property and Land Development, Integrated Facilities Management (“IFM”) as well as Project Management & Consultancy Services.

Under the Property and Land Development segment, the Group’s key subsidiaries are Damansara Realty Johor Sdn Bhd (“DRJ”) and Damansara Realty Pahang Sdn Bhd (“DRP”); while for IFM, the key subsidiaries are TMR which focuses on engineering related facilities management; Metro Parking which focuses on parking management and consultancy services, as well as HCD which focuses on cleaning and hygiene services. In addition, the Group also consists of project management and consultancy services (construction & infrasturcture development) spearheaded by HTS.

2016 FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

The Group had undergone a series of challenges in FY2016 which includes global economic uncertainty, currency depreciation, increase in direct and indirect costs due to more stringent statutory requirements (i.e. minimum wages, GST, etc) and tougher competition within our operating industries. By and large, the above combined challenges had somewhat impacted our FY2016 fi nancial performance.

The Group had recorded a net Loss After Tax (“LAT”) of RM27.7 mil for the period of twelve months ended 31st December 2016 as compared to a net LAT of RM2.8 mil in the previous year. The increase in LAT was mainly due to exceptional items amounting to RM16.2 million that occurred in FY2016 and will not recur in FY2017 and includes discounted cashfl ow, property, plant and equipment written off and provision for doubtful debt.

In addition to the above, the Group recorded a lower revenue of RM183.6 million in FY2016 as compared to RM207.1 million a year ago which is primarily attributable to lower contributions from its existing businesses. The Group also booked a higher Total Cost of RM222.7 million in FY2016 as compared to RM212.7 million in FY2015, mainly due to the increase in expenses and direct costs, inclusive of RM8.9 million construction costs for PPA1M in FY2016.

OVERVIEW OF PROPERTY & LAND DEVELOPMENT SEGMENT

Damansara Realty’s Property Division is currently focusing on 2 key projects; the Damansara Hills (“DH1”) and Damansara Aliff Square (“AS1” & “AS2”). DH1 is a medium to high-end housing development project with a total of 49 units of Terrace and Semi-Detached houses built in prime area in Kuantan, Pahang. The development is just minutes away from East Coast Highway, Bandar Indera Mahkota and Teluk Cempedak, one of the key attractions in Kuantan. DH1 aims to provide a safe and exciting living experience with 24-hour security surveillance to ensure the safety of its residents. In addition, DH1 also keeps residents close to nature, providing them a healthy and active living environment.

ANNUAL REPORT 2016 | DAMANSARA REALTY BERHAD 31

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

The AS1 and AS2 projects are part of the development of a 53-acre freehold land parcel in Johor Bahru which is strategically located in the bustling Tampoi commercial zone and a short distance from Johor Bahru City Centre, Pasir Gudang Port and PTP Port, in the heart of Iskandar Malaysia. The Aliff Square project consists of units ranging from 4,814 square feet up to 9,881 square feet with excellent accessibility and unique eye-catching design surrounded by restaurants, banks, and various education institutions. There are currently 16 units of 3 and 4 storey shops or offi ces which are expected to be completed by 3rd Quarter 2017.

The Property Division contributed a total of RM3.8 million to the Group’s revenue in FY2016 as compared to RM16.4 million in FY2015 due to lower number of units sold (3 units in FY2016 vs 18 units in FY2015). The Property Division recorded a net loss of RM17.2 million mainly due to RM9.2 million fi nancing cost and RM8.9 million PPA1M development cost respectively.

FUTURE PROSPECTS OF PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT

The Group is expecting better sales in FY2017 due to the recovery of Malaysia’s economy which is expected to improve consumer’s buying power and sentiment towards the property market in the country.

The increase in sales would also be supported by continuous rapid development in areas surrounding the Group’s projects i.e. Central Park in Johor Bahru which would increase the value of its properties over-time where the Group is targeting predominantly local buyers. The Group has also formulated future plans to continue the development of Damansara Hills 2, a second phase development on its land in Kuantan.

Among the potential challenges identifi ed for this segment is the Group’s capability to secure fi nancing for large scale development projects due to stricter requirements set by local fi nancial institutions.

32 ANNUAL REPORT 2016 | DAMANSARA REALTY BERHAD

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Despite its strong confidence in market recovery in the coming years, the Group shall continue to enhance its marketing strategies including social media marketing to create traction for its projects and improving the sales of properties.

OVERVIEW OF IFM SEGMENT

The Group’s IFM segment mainly evolved around its key facilities management subsidiaries namely TMR, HCD and MPM where each gave specifi c prominence on individual company’s expertise such as engineering related services, hygiene and cleaning services and parking management services. These services which will be molded into IFM service offering, shall provide the Group with better opportunities to capture the increasing demands from clients who prefer to deal with a single service provider.

Despite the above, the Group had only managed to emphasize on synergistic relationship late 2016 which did not have much impact to the Group’s FY2016 performance. Nonetheless, it still managed to secure high value contracts from well-known organization which include Petronas, JCorp, Malaysia Airports Holdings Berhad, Permodalan Nasional Berhad and Telekom Malaysia Berhad throughout the year. In general, the IFM segment contributed a total of RM179.8 million to the Group’s revenue in FY2016 as compared to RM190.7 million in FY2015 due to expiry of several signifi cant service contracts hence attributable to the negative Gross Profi t in FY2016.

FUTURE PROSPECT OF IFM SEGMENT

In FY2017, the Group’s IFM segment shall focus more on leveraging each other’s expertise where the Group will continue to explore business opportunities in their existing contracts especially those in Rapid.

Amongst others, the Group will re-package its service offerings to include F&B, catering, comprehensive maintenance and operations, housekeeping and cleaning services, security services, medical facility services, transportation and logistics services and other related consultancy services for its clients. This shall be in-tandem with the Group’s Vision statement which is to be the ‘Preferred Assets and Facility Management Solutions Provider’.

The Group shall also enhance its focus on product and services mix including the development of centralized monitoring and billing system which aims to improve the Group’s effi ciency in managing the car park business. In addition, Damansara Realty is currently developing a smart application to allow users to pre-book car park bays via smartphones at the parking facilities.

OVERVIEW OF PROJECT MANAGEMENT & CONSULTANCY

SERVICES SEGMENT

The Group’s Project Management & Consultancy services are spearheaded by HTS which has expertise in planning and development of hospitals & healthcare specialist centers throughout the country. In addition, the Group also provides Project Management & Consultancy services in the overall construction process inclusive of coordination & facilitation between the clients, contractors and consultants.

The Group is also equipped with the right capabilities in energy management, medical technology as well as technical and construction advisory services where it provides a mixture of complete services to clients.

Key projects that are currently in the Group’s pipeline include KPJ Damansara Specialist, KPJ Ampang Puteri, MSU Medical Centre, Seremban Specialist Hospital, Johor Specialist Hospital, UITM Hospital and Gerehu Hospital in Papua New Guinea.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

The SRP is segregated into 2 phases with specifi c targets. Phase-1 of the SRP is targeted to strengthen the very foundation of Damansara Realty’s businesses or in short, to solidify its business DNA. Phase-2 of the SRP shall have more focus on the Group’s future business plans and targets.

In the effort to transform by the Group, it is crucial to understand the business where the new management team conducted a plethora of analysis which includes analyzing current market positions of each subsidiary, its strengths and weaknesses, the organization structure, assessing leadership competencies as well as comprehension of current business challenges. Subsequently, the Group has identified key challenges faced by the Group which includes identifying symptoms and detail analysis of the root-causes which were then categorized into several groups to allow effective hypothesis generation for solutions. Further, the Group has identifi ed possible initiatives, person in charge (champion), deadline and expected impact from each initiative. Lastly, the Group monitors and reports the progress of these initiatives on regular basis to the Executive Committee (“EXCO”) and Damansara Realty’s Board.

The Group has identifi ed 8 key transformation drivers which includes:

1. Upholding governance

2. Raising leadership competencies

3. Setting effective performance measures

4. Creation of a Strategic Business Plan encompassing granular level action plans

5. Enhancing business acumen

6. Rebuilding reputation

7. Revamping organization structure

8. Ensuring effective cash fl ow management

In totality, the Group has implemented over 50 initiatives to address the above key transformation drivers which was further refined to granular level action plans and presented to the management for continuous monitoring and improvements. Amongst the high impact initiatives implemented is the formation of EXCO, being the highest decision making Committee after Damansara Realty’s Board. EXCO is chaired by the Group CEO on a monthly basis with members being subsidiaries’ Managing Directors and Group General Managers. EXCO is formed to deliberate on matters related to the business inclusive of the Group’s year-to-date fi nancial performance, elevating synergies between subsidiaries and most importantly, to effectively track SRP’s initiatives progress.

The Group had also implemented the Group Approval Limits of Authority (“GALOA”) in its efforts to enhance corporate governance and establish effi cient processes in the Group. In addition, the Group’s overall enhancement of effectiveness via centralization of key support services such as Procurement, Legal, Human Resources and Finance services. Centralization aims to prevent unnecessary duplication of support-function at subsidiaries hence promoting cost-savings and standardization of processes company-wide. Other initiatives currently in place also include implementation of effective performance measurement, creation of investor relations plan, creation of key divisions such as Corporate Planning and Corporate Communication, enhancing cash fl ow management and creation of a sustainable business plan throughout the Group.

The expected impact from implementation of SRP would be:

a) To enhance synergy between subsidiaries within IFM businesses where the Group can capitalize on each subsidiaries strength and expansion of services to existing clientele.

b) To improve governance especially on adherence to internal processes, GALOA as well as compliance to Bursa and regulatory requirements for public listed company.

c) To enhance internal efficiency via implementation of centralized shared services for Finance, HR and Procurement (support services at HQ). Once processes are centralized, subsidiaries can focus on operational effi ciency and productivity.

d) To ensure business profi tability via effective tracking and monitoring of Key Performance Indicators, project progress, group fi nancial performance through EXCO.

In summary, the SRP provides clearer path for the Group towards business recovery. Internal weaknesses that threatened the Group’s resilience and strength have been identifi ed and various initiatives to turn the business around have been put in place. Damansara Realty believes the SRP will provide a fi rm foundation to bring the Group back to profi tability and at the same time prepares the Group to navigate through the ever growing challenging industries the Group is currently operating in.

The Board through its nominating committee had taken steps to ensure that women candidates are sought as part of its gender diversity target. Therefore, the Board has ensured at least one (1) female director in its composition.

The Group recognises and embraces the benefi ts of having a diverse Board, and sees increasing diversity at Board level as an essential element in maintaining a competitive advantage.

The Group also has made good use of differences in thought, perspective, knowledge, skills, regional and industry experience, cultural and geographical background, age, ethnicity and gender which will ensure that Damansara Realty retains its competitive advantage. These differences have been considered in determining the optimum composition of the Board and when possible, be balanced appropriately.

All Board appointments are made on merit, in the context of the skills and experience the Board as a whole requires to be effective.

The Board consists of qualified individuals with diverse set of skills, experience and knowledge necessary to govern the Group. The composition and size of the Board is such that it facilitates the decision making of the Group. The Articles of Association of Damansara Realty provides for a minimum of 2 Directors and maximum of 15 Directors. The composition and size of the Board are reviewed from time to time to ensure its effectiveness.

The Group seeks to maintain a Board comprised of talented and dedicated directors with a diverse mix of expertise, experience, skills and backgrounds. The skills and backgrounds collectively represented on the Board should reflect the diverse nature of the business environment in which the Group operates. For purposes of Board composition, diversity includes, but is not limited to, business experience, geography, age, ethnicity and gender.

In reviewing Board composition, Board Nomination and Remuneration Committee (“BNRC”) has considered the benefi ts of all aspects of diversity in

order to maintain an appropriate range and balance of skills, experience and background on the Board. In identifying suitable candidates for appointment to the Board, BNRC also has considered candidates on merit against objective criteria and with due regard for the benefi ts of diversity on the Board.

In accordance with Paragraph 15.02 of the Main Market Listing Requirements of Bursa Securities, that requires at least two directors or one-third of the Board to comprise Independent Directors, the presence of six (6) Independent Non-Executive Directors out of eight (8) lead to the Board being satisfied that the size and composition of the Independent Non-Executive Directors has fulfi lled this requirement adequately. The number of members is suffi cient and well balanced for Damansara Realty to carry out its duties effectively, whilst providing greater assurance that no individual or small group of individuals can dominate the Board’s decision.

On 21 March 2011, the Board resolved to establish its own BNRC. The Board is of the view that the composition of the BNRC meets the objectives and principles of good corporate governance. The members of the BNRC comprise exclusively of non-executives directors, all of whom are independent. The BNRC develops, maintains and reviews the criteria to be used in the recruitment process and annual assessment of directors.

The BNRC consists of the following members:

(i) Y.B Dato’ Mohd Aisom bin Omar – Chairman

(ii) Puan Zainah binti Mustafa – Member

(iii) Tuan Haji Abdullah bin Md Yusof – Member

The appointment of a BNRC member terminates when the member ceases to be a director of the Company. The BNRC shall have no executive power. In the event of equality of votes, the Chairman of the BNRC shall have a casting vote. In the absence of the Chairman of the BNRC, the members present shall elect one of them to chair the meeting. The BNRC shall meet at least once a year and any additional meetings shall be scheduled as considered necessary by the Chairman of the BNRC.

PRINCIPLE 3 – REINFORCED INDEPENDENCE

3.1 Assessment of Independence Annually

The Board, through its BNRC, undertakes an evaluation in order to assess how well the Board, its Committees, the Directors including Independent Directors and the Chairman are performing. The evaluation covers the Board’s composition, skills mix, experience, communication, roles and responsibilities, effectiveness as well as conduct.

The process also includes a peer review in which Directors assess their fellow Directors’ performance against set criteria, including the skills they bring to the Group and the contributions they make.

3.2 Tenure of Independent Directors

The Board recognizes the importance of the Independent Non-Executive Directors to ensure that issues of strategies, performance and resources proposed by the Management are professionally evaluated by taking into consideration the interest of the stakeholders in which the Group conduct its business. It is also include ensuring the interest of Minority Shareholder is fairly considered through Board representation.

The MCCG 2012 recommends for the tenure of an Independent Director of the Company not to exceed a cumulative term of 9 years. However, the Board does not have a policy on the tenure for Independent Directors as the Board is of the view that a term of more than 9 years may not necessary impair independence and judgement of an Independent Director and therefore the Board does not impose a fi xed term limit for Independent Directors.

However, the Board will seek shareholders’ approval to retain Independent Directors who have served on the Board for more than 9 years by providing strong justifications and its recommendations to shareholders.

3.3 Shareholders’ Approval for the retention of

Independent Directors

The Board shall seek the shareholders’ approval for the retention of the independent status of an existing Director who had served in that capacity for more than 9 years.

Puan Zainah binti Mustafa was appointed as a Board Member on 17 April 2003 and had served the Board as Independent Non-Executive Director beyond than 9 year tenure limit. Hence, the Board has, after conducting an assessment, has recommended her tenure as an Independent Director be retained subject to the shareholders’

approval at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting (AGM) with the following justifi cations:-

(a) She has fulfi lled the criteria under the defi nition of Independent Director as stated in the Main Market Listing Requirements of Bursa Securities, and thus, she would be able to function as a check and balance, bring an element of objectivity to the Board;

(b) She has possessed vast experience in the fi nance industry that would enable her to provide the Board with a diverse set of experience, expertise and independent judgement;

(c) She has been with the Group for more than nine (9) years and has the knowledge of the Group’s business operations and the property development market;

(d) She has devoted suffi cient time and attention to her professional obligations for informed and balanced decision making; and

(e) She has exercised due care during her tenure as an Independent Non-Executive Director of the Group and carried out her professional duties in the best interest of the Group and shareholders.

3.4 Separation of Chairman and CEO

There is a clear distinction of responsibilities between the Chairman and the Group CEO to ensure a balance of power and authority. The Chairman was responsible for conducting meetings of the Board and shareholders and ensuring all Board members were properly briefed during Board discussions and shareholders were informed of the subject matters requiring their approval. The Group CEO has responsibility to ensure that the strategic planning of the Group be effectively implemented as well as responsible for the whole performance of the Group.

The Chairman of Damansara Realty is the Independent Non-Executive Chairman, YB Dato’ Ahmad Zahri bin Jamil, while the post of Group CEO is held by En. Brian Iskandar bin Zulkarim who attained the post on 1 September 2016.

PRINCIPLE 4 – FOSTER COMMITMENT

The Enterprise Risk Management Department continuously reviews the adequacy and effectiveness of the risk management processes that are in place within the Group.

Self-Assessment

1. Control Environment

The Board and the management set the tone of the organization and infl uence the control consciousness within all levels of employees. The Group is committed in ensuring that an adequate control environment is maintained. Among the measures taken are as follows:

a. The Group has formulated a Risk Management Framework to guide personnel in identifying, assessing, managing and reporting the risks;

b. The Group had also established and distributed to all levels of personnel the Internal Policy and Procedures on Property Development, Property Services, Project Management, Tendering as well as Construction Management. The said policies and procedures, amongst others, defi ne the authority, responsibility and accountability of the relevant personnel within the Group business functions. Changes in strategic plans, objectives and goals are immediately disseminated and communicated to the employees;

c. In line with the existence of Human Resource Policies and Procedures in place, the Group had also adopted and practiced the Ethical Code of Conduct which further provides guidance to all employees in their day- to-day conduct of business transactions. Added to that, all employees are requested to make a formal disclosure as to whether they are engaged in activities that may have any conflict with Damansara Realty’s interests.

2. Risk Assessment & Evaluation

The Board is aware that every organization faces a variety of risks from external and internal sources that must be assessed. A pre-condition to risk assessment is the establishment of objectives, linked at different levels and internally consistent. Risk assessment is the identifi cation and analysis of relevant risks affecting the achievement of the objectives, forming a basis for determining how the risks should be managed. In order to ensure that the Board is satisfi ed that the key business risks have been identifi ed and are being addressed, a structured Risk-Control process has been established. Risk issues are updated and reviewed by the Management, Enterprise Risk Management Department and Internal Auditors. All risk-control reports from the respective risk owners / operating units are compiled and assessed quarterly. Results are presented to the BRMC for notifi cation and endorsement from time to time.

STATEMENT ON RISK MANAGEMENT AND INTERNAL CONTROL

ANNUAL REPORT 2016 | DAMANSARA REALTY BERHAD 61

Page 64: CREATING SYNERGY · Zainah binti Mustafa, aged 62, female, a Malaysian, was appointed on the Board of Damansara Realty on 17 April 2003. She is a Senior Independent Non-Executive

Risk assessment is performed in determining the severity (impact) and probability (likelihood) of occurrence of the risks. The risk assessment considers the range of potential severity and how likely these would occur. A product of the risk severity and probability will provide the risk rating and is evaluated using a risk matrix and this is used as the basis to prioritize the risks.

The comparison of estimated risks levels against established criteria, and deciding if the risk is within tolerable limits was used to evaluate the risks. If the levels of risk are within acceptable limits, or if the costs of addressing the risk outweigh the potential loss from the risk, then that risk may be accepted as a Control Exception and further risk treatment may not be required. The management has made conscious decision to accept that risk and not expend further effort in trying to control it.

3. Control Activities

Control activities help to ensure that necessary actions are taken to address risks that may hinder the achievement of the organization’s objectives. Control activities occur throughout the organization, at all levels and in all functions. Internal controls are enforced through policy manuals, jobs description and functions, operating procedures, delegation, authorization, etc. Appropriate control activities have been designed and put in place on all aspects of business operating functions. Among the key control activities currently undertaken by the Group are:

• Regular review of comprehensive information/reports provided by the Management to the Board covering financial and operational performance and key business indicators;

• Regular Management meetings to obtain feedback on the progress of activities undertaken by the operating/business units in order to rectify any shortcomings or problems affecting the implementation plan;

• Visits to operating/business units by members of the Board and senior management;

• Regular internal audit visits to sites to review and appraise the systems of internal controls in place to ensure that these controls are effective and working as intended;

• Regular reconciliations, for example banks’ reconciliations, to ensure that all transactions are accounted for;

• Efforts to safeguard Damansara Realty’s assets through adequate insurance coverage over the Group’s major assets against fi re peril;

• Segregation of duties and physical security of assets e.g. limit access to assets, systems and records; establish clear control of assets and custodial responsibility; and

• Risk-Control reports together with action plans are prepared by the risk owners and submitted to the Risk Management Coordinator for monitoring purposes. The Risk Management Coordinator shall ensure that all action plans are implemented.

4. Information and Communication Process

The Group has a well-defined and clear line of communication within the Group’s organizational structure. The structure ensures that the Board receives timely, relevant and reliable reports on business activities, progress and related information for decision-making. Periodic reports are compiled containing operational, fi nancial, compliance-related information and information on external events and activities for business decision-making and external reporting.

The Group has effective communication channels, through reports, briefings, meetings, discussions, internal memorandum and website, to communicate and disseminate relevant and important information on a timely basis.

5. Continuous Monitoring Process on the Adequacy

and Integrity of the System of Internal Control

The Board recognizes the fact that internal control systems need to be continuously monitored, a process that assesses the quality of the system’s performance over time. This is accomplished through ongoing monitoring activities, separate evaluations or a combination of both. Ongoing monitoring occurs in the course of operations through regular internal audit reviews on internal control system as well as management and supervisory activities over the business functions.

The Management provides regular and comprehensive information/reports to the Board covering fi nancial performance and key business indicators. The Internal Auditors have been in existence and are independent of the activities they audit.

Page 65: CREATING SYNERGY · Zainah binti Mustafa, aged 62, female, a Malaysian, was appointed on the Board of Damansara Realty on 17 April 2003. She is a Senior Independent Non-Executive

The Internal Auditors report functionally to the BAC and administratively to the Group CEO. They perform regular reviews of business processes to assess the effectiveness of the internal controls, conduct audit visits to key business units of the Group on a planned basis and issue audit reports on their findings and recommendations for the review of the BAC.

The BAC conducts a review on the results of the internal audit programme or investigation undertaken and determines whether the Management has taken the appropriate actions on the recommendations made by the Internal Auditors.

1. Cash Flow Management Risk

In order to increase the effectiveness of cash flow management, the Management has instilled centralization of fi nance to the Group level. The usage of a common fi nancial system, ERP was used since 2016 across not all departments and divisions. The usage of the system made it possible for the Group to effectively monitor its debtor and creditors and the centralization of fi nance have dedicated a special unit to oversee this and are effective in Q1 2017.

The Board has acknowledged the effectiveness in centralization of fi nance using systems and ensures that the cash fl ow management risk is well managed by the Group.

2. Business Interruption Risk

Appropriate systems with adequate capacity, security arrangements facilities and resources are in place to mitigate risks that could cause an interruption to the Group’s critical business function. The EXCO was established in 2016 as part of the Group’s SRP in which it effectively look at business decision and the synergy of all its subsidiaries. EXCO members, comprised of head of each subsidiaries, department and division, Group CEO and Group CFO conduct EXCO meeting monthly. Better internal control and synergy was achieved since the formation of EXCO. The Group’s Management have identifi ed the potential future of the Group’s business using the strategic business analysis tools (i.e. Ansoff Matrix, TOMS, etc.) whether the subsidiaries within the group should focus on market penetration, product or service mix, market development or diversifi cation in order to ensure an effective business continuity plan is emplaced.

The Board have acknowledge the business continuity plan by the EXCO members and ensure that the business interruption risk is well managed by the Group.

3. Increasing Competition Risk

In face of competition, the Group has identifi ed the competition it faced in similar business and have further used strategic business analysis tools to diversify its business only if it meets the Group’s business objectives. Better focuses on the each business and effective project planning have been emplaced. Better market penetration by its businesses by focusing on its strengths, which synergizes all its subsidiaries in achieving an Integrated Facilities and Assets management. This created leverage for the Group’s businesses against its competitors.

The Board have acknowledge the effectiveness of the EXCO meeting in making sure that the increasing competition risk is well managed by the Group.

INTERNAL AUDIT FUNCTION

The Group has an Internal Audit Department (“IAD”), which reports directly to the BAC. Its role is to provide the Board with the assurance it requires regarding the adequacy and integrity of internal control across the Group.

IAD reviews the internal control processes in the key activities of the Group’s businesses by adopting a risk-based internal audit approach and reports directly to the BAC. Reports on internal audit findings together with recommendations for Management actions are presented to the BAC where it then reports to the Board by the BAC on a quarterly basis or as appropriate.

For each fi nancial year, IAD prepares annual Internal Audit Plan and presents it to the BAC for their approval. The scope of work in the Audit Plan encompasses review of fi nancial and operational activities within the Group.

The IAD has completed the planned audits for the year and will closely monitor the implementation progress of its audit recommendations in order to ensure that all major risks and control concerns have been duly addressed by the Management. All internal audit reports together with the recommended action plans and their implementation status have been presented to the Management and BAC.

Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to infl uence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these fi nancial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia and International Standards on Auditing, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the fi nancial statements of the Group and of the Company, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is suffi cient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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 Group’s and of the Company’s internal control.

• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.

• Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast signifi cant doubt on the Group’s or the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors’ report to the related disclosures in the fi nancial statements of the Group and of the Company or, if such disclosure are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors’ report. However, future events or conditions may cause the company to cease to continue as a going concern.

• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the fi nancial statements of the Group and of the Company, including the disclosures, and whether the fi nancial statements of the Group and of the Company represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

• Obtain suffi cient appropriate audit evidence regarding the fi nancial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the fi nancial statements of the Group. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible fo our audit opinion.

We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and signifi cant audit fi ndings, including any signifi cant defi ciencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were of most signifi cance in the audit of the fi nancial statements of the Group and of the Company for the current year and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumtances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefi ts of such communication.

FRS 9: Financial Instruments

In November 2014, MASB issued the fi nal version of FRS 9 Financial Instruments which refl ects all phases of the fi nancial instruments project and replaces FRS 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and all previous versions of FRS 9.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D.)

2.3 Basis of consolidation

The consolidated fi nancial statements comprise the fi nancial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries as at the reporting date. The fi nancial statements of the subsidiaries used in the preparation of the consolidated fi nancial statements are prepared for the same reporting date as the Company. Consistent accounting policies are applied to like transactions and events in similar circumstances.

The Group controls an investee if and only if the Group has all the following:

(i) Power over the investee (i.e. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee);

(ii) Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its investment with the investee; and

(iii) The ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns.

When the Company has less than a majority of the voting rights of an investee, the Company considers the following in assessing whether or not the Company’s voting rights in an investee are suffi cient to give it power over the investee:

(i) The size of the Company’s holding of voting rights relative to the size and dispersion of holdings of the other vote holders;

(ii) Potential voting rights held by the Company, other vote holders or other parties;

(iii) Rights arising from other contractual arrangements; and

(iv) Any additional facts and circumstances that indicate that the Company has, or does not have, the current ability to direct the relevant activities at the time that decisions need to be made, including voting patterns at previous shareholders’ meetings.

Subsidiaries are consolidated when the Company obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Company loses control of the subsidiary. All intra-group balances, income and expenses and unrealised gains and losses resulting from intra-group transactions are eliminated in full.

Losses within a subsidiary are attributed to the non-controlling interests even if that results in a defi cit balance.

Changes in the Group’s ownership interests in subsidiaries that do not result in the Group losing control over the subsidiaries are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amounts of the Group’s interests and the non-controlling interests are adjusted to refl ect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiaries. The resulting difference is recognised directly in equity and attributed to owners of the Company.

When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, a gain or loss calculated as the difference between (i) the aggregate of the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of any retained interest and (ii) the previous carrying amount of the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary and any non-controlling interest, is recognised in profi t or loss. The subsidiary’s cumulative gain or loss which has been recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity are reclassifi ed to profi t or loss or where applicable, transferred directly to retained earnings. The fair value of any investment retained in the former subsidiary at the date control is lost is regarded as the cost on initial recognition of the investment.

Business combinations involving entities under common control are accounted for by applying the merger accounting method. The assets and liabilities of the combining entities are refl ected at their carrying amounts reported in the consolidated fi nancial statements of the controlling holding company. Any differences between the consideration paid and the share capital of the acquired entity is refl ected within the equity merger (defi cit)/reserve. The statement of comprehensive income refl ects the results of the combining entities for the full year, irrespective of when the combination takes place. Comparative are presented as if the entities had always been combined since the date the entities had come under common control.

Subsidiaries are 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.

2.5 Foreign currency

(a) Functional and presentation currency

The individual fi nancial statements of each entity in the Group are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (“the functional currency”). The consolidated fi nancial statements are presented in Ringgit Malaysia (RM), which is also the Company’s functional currency.

(b) Foreign currency transactions

Transactions in foreign currencies are measured in the respective functional currencies of the Company and its subsidiaries and are recorded on initial recognition in the functional currencies at exchange rates approximating those ruling at the transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rate of exchange ruling at the reporting date. Non-monetary items denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at historical costs are translated using the exchange rates as at the dates of the initial transactions. Non-monetary items denominated in foreign currencies measured at fair value are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined.

Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on translating monetary items at the reporting date are recognised in profi t or loss except for exchange differences arising on monetary items that form part of the Group’s net investment in foreign operations, which are recognised initially in other comprehensive income and accumulated under foreign currency translation reserve in equity. The foreign currency translation reserve is reclassifi ed from equity to profi t or loss of the Group on disposal of the foreign operation.

Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items carried at fair value are included in profi t and loss for the period except for the differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items in respect of which gains and losses are recognised directly in equity. Exchange differences arising from such non-monetary items are also recognised directly in equity.

2.5 Foreign currency (cont’d.)

(c) Foreign operations

The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into RM at the rate of exchange ruling at the reporting date and income and expenses are translated at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. The exchange differences arising on the translation are taken directly to other comprehensive income. On disposal of a foreign operation, the cumulative amount recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity under foreign currency translation reserve relating to that particular foreign operation is recognised in the profi t and loss.

Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of foreign operations are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operations and are recorded in the functional currency of the foreign operations and translated at the closing rate at the reporting date.

2.6 Property, plant and equipment

All items of property, plant and equipment are initially recorded at cost. The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised as an asset if, and only if, it is probable that future economic benefi ts associated with the item will fl ow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.

Subsequent to recognition, plant and equipment and furniture and fixtures are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. When signifi cant parts of property, plant and equipment are required to be replaced in intervals, the Group recognises such parts as individual assets with specifi c useful lives and depreciation, respectively. Likewise, when a major inspection is performed, its cost is recognised in the carrying amount of the plant and equipment as a replacement if the recognition criteria are satisfi ed. All other repair and maintenance costs are recognised in profi t or loss as incurred.

Freehold land has an unlimited useful life and therefore is not depreciated. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

Buildings 10 to 50 yearsPlant and machinery 5 to 10 yearsSite infrastructure and renovations 10 to 14 yearsOffi ce equipment, furniture and fi ttings 4 to 20 yearsMotor vehicles 5 yearsMedical equipment 10 yearsRenovation 5 to 10 yearsPlant and parking equipment 5 to 7 yearsMachinery and tools 5 to 10 years

Capital work in progress included in plant and equipment are not depreciated as these assets are not yet available for use.

The carrying values of property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

The residual value, useful life and depreciation method are reviewed at each fi nancial year end, and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefi ts are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss on derecognition of the asset is included in the profi t or loss in the year the asset is derecognised.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D.)

2.7 Investment properties

Investment properties are initially recorded at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to recognition, investment properties are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the investment properties at 50 years. The carrying values of investment properties are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

The residual value, useful life and depreciation method are reviewed at each fi nancial year end, and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

Investment properties are derecognised when either they have been disposed of or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefi t is expected from its disposal. Any gain or loss on the retirement or disposal of an investment property is recognised in profi t or loss in the year of retirement or disposal.

Transfers are made to or from investment property only when there is a change in use. For a transfer from owner-occupied property to investment property, the property is accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy for property, plant and equipment set out in Note 2.6 up to the date of change in use.

2.8 Goodwill

Goodwill is initially measured at cost. Following initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired is allocated, from the acquisition date, to each of the Group’s cash-generating units that are expected to benefi t from the synergies of the combination.

The cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually and whenever there is an indication that the cash-generating unit may be impaired, by comparing the carrying amount of the cash-generating unit, including the allocated goodwill, with the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit. Where the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised in the profi t or loss. Impairment losses recognised for goodwill are not reversed in subsequent periods.

Where goodwill forms part of a cash-generating unit and part of the operation within that cash-generating unit is disposed of, the goodwill associated with the operation disposed of is included in the carrying amount of the operation when determining the gain or loss on disposal of the operation. Goodwill disposed of in this circumstance is measured based on the relative fair values of the operations disposed of and the portion of the cash-generating unit retained. Goodwill and fair value adjustments arose on acquisitions of foreign operation before 1 January 2006 are deemed to be assets and liabilities of the company and are recorded in RM at the rates prevailing at the date of acquisition.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D.)

2.9 Impairment of non-fi nancial assets

The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, or when an annual impairment assessment for an asset is required, the Group makes an estimate of the asset’s recoverable amount.

An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. For the purpose of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifi able cash fl ows (cash-generating units (“CGU”)).

In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash fl ows expected to be generated by the asset 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. Where the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is written down to its recoverable amount. Impairment losses recognised in respect of a CGU or groups of CGUs are allocated fi rst to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to those units or groups of units and then, to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the unit or groups of units on a pro-rata basis.

Impairment losses are recognised in profi t or loss except for assets that are previously revalued where the revaluation was taken to other comprehensive income. In this case the impairment is also recognised in other comprehensive income up to the amount of any previous revaluation.

An assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount.

That increase cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised previously. Such reversal is recognised in profi t or loss unless the asset is measured at revalued amount, in which case the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase. Impairment loss on goodwill is not reversed in a subsequent period.

2.10 Subsidiaries

A subsidiary is an entity over which the Group has all the following:

(i) Power over the investee (i.e existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee);

(ii) Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its investment with the investee; and

(iii) The ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns.

In the Company’s separate fi nancial statements, investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost less impairment losses. On disposal of such investments, the difference between net disposal proceeds and their carrying amounts is included in profi t or loss.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D.)

2.11 Investments in associates and joint ventures

An associate is an entity in which the Group has signifi cant infl uence. 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.

A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

On acquisition of an investment in associate or joint venture, any excess of the cost of investment over the Group’s share of the net fair value of the identifi able assets and liabilities of the investee is recognised as goodwill and included in the carrying amount of the investment. Any excess of the Group’s share of the net fair value of the identifi able assets and liabilities of the investee over the cost of investment is excluded from the carrying amount of the investment and is instead included as income in the determination of the Group’s share of the associate’s or joint venture’s profi t or loss for the period in which the investment is acquired.

An associate or a joint venture is equity accounted for from the date on which the investee becomes an associate or a joint venture.

Under the equity method, on initial recognition the investment in an associate or a joint venture is recognised at cost, and the carrying amount is increased or decreased to recognise the Group’s share of the profi t or loss and other comprehensive income of the associate or joint venture after the date of acquisition. When the Group’s share of losses in an associate or a joint venture equal or exceeds its interest in the associate or joint venture, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate or joint venture.

Profi ts and losses resulting from upstream and downstream transactions between the Group and its associate or joint venture are recognised in the Group’s fi nancial statements only to the extent of unrelated investors’ interests in the associate or joint venture. Unrealised losses are eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred.

The fi nancial statements of the associates and joint ventures are prepared as of the same reporting date as the Company. Where necessary, adjustments are made to bring the accounting policies in line with those of the Group.

2.12 Financial assets

Financial assets are recognised in the statements of fi nancial position when, and only when, the Group and the Company become a party to the contractual provisions of the fi nancial instrument.

When fi nancial assets are recognised initially, they are measured at fair value, plus, in the case of fi nancial assets not at fair value through profi t or loss, directly attributable transaction costs.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D.)

2.12 Financial assets (cont’d.)

The Group and the Company determine the classifi cation of their fi nancial assets at initial recognition, and the categories include loans and receivables and available-for-sale fi nancial assets.

(a) Loans and receivables

Financial assets with fi xed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market are classifi ed as loans and receivables.

Subsequent to initial recognition, loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Gains and losses are recognised in profi t or loss when the loans and receivables are derecognised or impaired, and through the amortisation process.

Loans and receivables are classifi ed as current assets, except for those having maturity dates later than 12 months after the reporting date which are classifi ed as non-current.

(b) Available-for-sale fi nancial assets

Available-for-sale fi nancial assets are fi nancial assets that are designated as available for sale or are not classifi ed in any of the three preceding categories.

After initial recognition, available-for-sale fi nancial assets are measured at fair value. Any gains or losses from changes in fair value of the fi nancial assets are recognised in other comprehensive income, except that impairment losses, foreign exchange gains and losses on monetary instruments and interest calculated using the effective interest method are recognised in profi t or loss. The cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassifi ed from equity to profi t or loss as a reclassifi cation adjustment when the fi nancial asset is derecognised. Interest income calculated using the effective interest method is recognised in profi t or loss. Dividends on an available-for-sale equity instrument are recognised in profi t or loss when the Group and the Company’s right to receive payment is established.

Investments in equity instruments whose fair value cannot be reliably measured are measured at cost less impairment loss.

Available-for-sale fi nancial assets are classifi ed as non-current assets unless they are expected to be realised within 12 months after the reporting date.

A fi nancial asset is derecognised when the contractual right to receive cash fl ows from the asset has expired. On derecognition of a fi nancial asset in its entirety, the difference between the carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and any cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in other comprehensive income is recognised in profi t or loss.

Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of fi nancial assets that require delivery of assets within the period generally established by regulation or convention in the marketplace concerned. All regular way purchases and sales of fi nancial assets are recognised or derecognised on the trade date i.e., the date that the Group and the Company commit to purchase or sell the asset.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D.)

2.13 Impairment of fi nancial assets

The Group and the Company assess at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that a fi nancial asset is impaired.

(a) Trade and other receivables and other fi nancial assets carried at amortised cost

To determine whether there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on fi nancial assets has been incurred, the Group and the Company consider factors such as the probability of insolvency or signifi cant fi nancial diffi culties of the debtor and default or signifi cant delay in payments. For certain categories of fi nancial assets, such as trade receivables, assets that are assessed not to be impaired individually are subsequently assessed for impairment on a collective basis based on similar risk characteristics. Objective evidence of impairment for a portfolio of receivables could include the Group’s and the Company’s past experience of collecting payments, an increase in the number of delayed payments in the portfolio past the average credit period and observable changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with default on receivables.

If any such evidence exists, the amount of impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash fl ows discounted at the fi nancial asset’s original effective interest rate. The impairment loss is recognised in profi t or loss.

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 becomes uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account.

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 was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed to the extent that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its amortised cost at the reversal date. The amount of reversal is recognised in profi t or loss.

(b) Unquoted equity securities carried at cost

If there is objective evidence (such as signifi cant adverse changes in the business environment where the issuer operates, probability of insolvency or signifi cant fi nancial diffi culties of the issuer) that an impairment loss on fi nancial assets carried at cost has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash fl ows discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar fi nancial asset. Such impairment losses are not reversed in subsequent periods.

(c) Available-for-sale fi nancial assets

Signifi cant or prolonged decline in fair value below cost, signifi cant fi nancial diffi culties of the issuer or obligor, and the disappearance of an active trading market are considerations to determine whether there is objective evidence that investment securities classifi ed as available-for-sale fi nancial assets are impaired.

If an available-for-sale fi nancial asset is impaired, an amount comprising the difference between its cost (net of any principal payment and amortisation) and its current fair value, less any impairment loss previously recognised in profi t or loss, is transferred from equity to profi t or loss.

Impairment losses on available-for-sale equity investments are not reversed in profi t or loss in the subsequent periods. Increase in fair value, if any, subsequent to impairment loss is recognised in other comprehensive income. For available-for-sale debt investments, impairment losses are subsequently reversed in profi t or loss if an increase in the fair value of the investment can be objectively related to an event occurring after the recognition of the impairment loss in profi t or loss.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D.)

2.14 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits, and short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amount of cash and which are subject to an insignifi cant risk of changes in value. These also include bank overdrafts that form an integral part of the Group’s cash management.

2.15 Construction contracts

Where the outcome of a construction contract can be reliably estimated, contract revenue and contract costs are recognised as revenue and expenses respectively by using the stage of completion method. The stage of completion is measured by reference to the proportion of contract costs incurred for work performed to date to the estimated total contract costs.

Where the outcome of a construction contract cannot be estimated reliably, contract revenue is recognised to the extent of contract costs incurred that are likely to be recoverable. Contract costs are recognised as expense 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.

Contract revenue comprises the initial amount of revenue agreed in the contract and variations in contract work, claims and incentive payments to the extent that it is probable that they will result in revenue and they are capable of being reliably measured.

When the total of costs incurred on construction contracts plus recognised profi ts (less recognised losses) exceeds progress billings, the balance is classifi ed as amount due from customers on contracts. When progress billings exceed costs incurred plus, recognised profi ts (less recognised losses), the balance is classifi ed as amount due to customers on contracts.

2.16 Land held for property development and property development cost

(i) Land held for property development

Land held for property development consists of land where no active development activity has been carried out or where development activity is not expected to be completed within the normal operating cycle. Such land is classifi ed within non-current asset and is stated at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.

Land held for property development is reclassifi ed to property development costs at the point when development activity has commenced and where it can be demonstrated that the development activity will be completed within the normal operating cycle.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D.)

2.16 Land held for property development and property development cost (cont’d.)

(ii) Property development costs

Property development costs comprise all costs that are directly attributable to development activities or that can be allocated on a reasonable basis to such activities.

When the fi nancial outcome of a development activity can be reliably estimated, property development revenue and expenses are recognised in profi t or loss by using the stage of completion method. The stage of completion is determined by the proportion that property development costs incurred for work performed to date bears to the estimated total property development costs.

Where the fi nancial outcome of a development activity cannot be reliably estimated, property development revenue is recognised only to the extent of property development costs incurred that is probable will be recoverable, and property development costs on properties sold are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

Any expected loss on a development project, including costs to be incurred over the defects liability period, is recognised as an expense immediately.

Property development costs not recognised as an expense are recognised as an asset, which is measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

The excess of revenue recognised in the profi t or loss over billings to purchasers is classifi ed as accrued billings within trade receivables and the excess of billings to purchasers over revenue recognised in profi t or loss is classifi ed as progress billings within trade payables.

2.17 Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of raw materials comprises costs of purchase. The cost of unsold completed inventory properties comprises cost associated with the acquisition of land, direct costs and appropriate proportions of common costs.

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

2.18 Non-current assets held for sale

Non-current assets are classifi ed as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. This condition is regarded as met only when the sale is highly probable and the asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms that are usual and customary.

Immediately before classifi cation as held for sale, the measurement of the non-current assets is brought up-to-date in accordance with applicable FRSs. Then, on initial classifi cation as held for sale, non-current assets (other than investment properties, deferred tax assets, employee benefi ts assets, fi nancial assets and inventories) are measured in accordance with FRS 5 that is at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Any differences are included in the profi t or loss.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D.)

2.19 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 an outfl ow of economic resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount of the obligation can be estimated reliably.

Provisions are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to refl ect the current best estimate. If it is no longer probable that an outfl ow of economic resources will be required to settle the obligation, the provision is reversed. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that refl ects, where appropriate, the risks specifi c to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a fi nance cost.

2.20 Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are classifi ed according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into and the defi nitions of a fi nancial liability.

Financial liabilities, within the scope of FRS 139, are recognised in the statements of fi nancial position when, and only when, the Group and the Company become a party to the contractual provisions of the fi nancial instrument. Financial liabilities are classifi ed as either fi nancial liabilities at fair value through profi t or loss or other fi nancial liabilities.

(a) Other fi nancial liabilities

The Group’s and the Company’s other fi nancial liabilities include trade payables, other payables and loans and borrowings.

Trade and other payables are recognised initially at fair value plus directly attributable transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Loans and borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred, and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Borrowings are classifi ed as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date.

For other fi nancial liabilities, gains and losses are recognised in profi t or loss when the liabilities are derecognised, and through the amortisation process.

A fi nancial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is extinguished. When an existing fi nancial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modifi ed, such an exchange or modifi cation is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in profi t or loss.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D.)

2.21 Financial guarantee contracts

A fi nancial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer to make specifi ed payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specifi ed debtor fails to make payment when due.

Financial guarantee contracts are recognised initially as a liability at fair value, net of transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, fi nancial guarantee contracts are recognised as income in profi t or loss over the period of the guarantee. If the debtor fails to make payment relating to fi nancial guarantee contract when it is due and the Group, as the issuer, is required to reimburse the holder for the associated loss, the liability is measured at the higher of the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the reporting date and the amount initially recognised less cumulative amortisation.

2.22 Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs are capitalised as part of the cost of a qualifying asset if they are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of that asset. Capitalisation of borrowing costs commences when the activities to prepare the asset for its intended use or sale are in progress and the expenditures and borrowing costs are incurred. Borrowing costs are capitalised until the assets are substantially completed for their intended use or sale.

All other borrowing costs are recognised in profi t or loss in the period they are incurred. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that the Group and the Company incurred in connection with the borrowing of funds.

2.23 Employee benefi ts

(a) Short term benefi ts

Wages, salaries, bonuses and social security contributions are recognised as an expense in the year in which the associated services are rendered by employees of the Group. Short term accumulating compensated absences such as paid annual leave are recognised when services are rendered by employees that increase their entitlement to future compensated absences and short term non-accumulating compensated absences such as sick leave are recognised when the absences occur.

(b) Defi ned contribution plans

The Group participates in the national pension schemes as defi ned by the laws of the countries in which it has operations. The Malaysian companies in the Group make contributions to the Employee Provident Fund in Malaysia, a defi ned contribution pension scheme. Contributions to defi ned contribution pension schemes are recognised as an expense in the period in which the related service is performed.

Such contributions are recognised as an expense in the profi t or loss as incurred. As required by law, companies in Malaysia make such contributions to the Employees Provident Fund (“EPF”).

Some of the Group’s foreign subsidiaries also make contributions to their respective countries’ statutory pension schemes.

2.24 Leases

(a) As lessee

Finance leases, which transfer to the Group substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the leased item, are capitalised at the inception of the lease at the fair value of the leased asset or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. Any initial direct costs are also added to the amount capitalised. Lease payments are apportioned between the fi nance charges and reduction of the lease liability so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are charged to profi t or loss. Contingent rents, if any, are charged as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred.

Leased assets are depreciated over the estimated useful life of the asset. However, if there is no reasonable certainty that the Group will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term, the asset is depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life and the lease term.

Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense in profi t or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The aggregate benefi t of incentives provided by the lessor is recognised as a reduction of rental expense over the lease term on a straight-line basis.

(b) As lessor

Leases where the Group retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset are classifi ed as operating leases. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised over the lease term on the same bases as rental income. The accounting policy for rental income is set out in Note 2.25(b)(i).

2.25 Revenue and other income

Revenue and other income are recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefi ts will fl ow to the Group and the amount can be reliably measured regardless of when the payment is being made. Revenue and other income are measured at the fair value of consideration received or receivable. The following specifi c recognition criteria must also be met before revenue and other income are recognised:

(a) Revenue

(i) Sale of land held for development

Revenue relating to sale of land held for development is recognised upon the transfer of signifi cant risks and rewards of ownership to the buyer.

(ii) Sale of properties

Revenue from sale of properties is accounted for by the stage of completion method as described in Note 2.16(ii).

(iii) Construction contracts

Revenue from construction contracts is accounted for by the stage of completion method as described in Note 2.15.

(iv) Project management services

Project management services are recognised for services rendered based on the stage of completion during pre and post contract for each project.

Services are recognised upon completion of monthly services based on price stated in the predetermined agreement between company and the customer.

(b) Other income

(i) Rental income

Rental income is accounted for on a straight-line basis over the lease terms. The aggregate costs of incentives provided to lessees are recognised as a reduction of rental income over the lease term on a straight-line basis.

(ii) Interest income

Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method.

2.26 Income taxes

(a) Current tax

Current tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

Current taxes are recognised in profi t or loss except to the extent that the tax relates to items recognised outside profi t or loss, either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

(b) Deferred tax

Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for fi nancial reporting purposes.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all temporary differences, except:

– where the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profi t nor taxable profi t or loss; and

– in respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates, where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D.)

2.26 Income taxes (cont’d.)

(b) Deferred tax (cont’d.)

Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profi t will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised except:

– where the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profi t nor taxable profi t or loss; and

– in respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates, deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profi t will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that suffi cient taxable profi t will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profi t will allow the deferred tax assets to be utilised.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred tax relating to items recognised outside profi t or loss is recognised outside profi t or loss. Deferred tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity and deferred tax arising from a business combination is adjusted against goodwill on acquisition.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset, if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.

2.27 Segment reporting

For management purposes, the Group is organised into operating segments based on their products and services which are independently managed by the respective segment managers responsible for the performance of the respective segments under their charge. The segment managers report directly to the management of the Company who regularly review the segment results in order to allocate resources to the segments and to assess the segment performance. Additional disclosures on each of these segments are shown in Note 35, including the factors used to identify the reportable segments and the measurement basis of segment information.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D.)

2.28 Share capital and share issuance expenses

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Group and the Company after deducting all of its liabilities. Ordinary shares are equity instruments.

Ordinary shares are recorded at the proceeds received, net of directly attributable incremental transaction costs. Ordinary shares are classifi ed as equity. Dividends on ordinary shares are recognised in equity in the period in which they are declared.

2.29 Contingencies

A contingent liability or asset is a possible obligation or asset that arises from past events and whose existence will be confi rmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of uncertain future event(s) not wholly within the control of the Group.

Contingent liabilities and assets are not recognised in the statements of fi nancial position of the Group.

2.30 Fair value measurement

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:

(i) In the principal market for the asset or liability, or

(ii) In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability

The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible to by the Group.

The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.

A fair value measurement of a non-fi nancial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate economic benefi ts by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

The Group uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in circumstances and for which suffi cient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the fi nancial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is signifi cant to the fair value measurement as a whole:

(i) Level 1 – Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets of liabilities.

(ii) Level 2 – Valuation techniques for the lowest level input that is signifi cant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable.

(ii) Level 3 – Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is signifi cant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.

For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Group has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the assets or liabilities and the level of the fair value hierarchy as explained above.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES

The preparation of the Group’s fi nancial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the reporting date. However, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that could require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset or liability affected in the future.

3.1 Judgements made in applying accounting policies

There are no critical judgements made by management in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies that may have signifi cant effect on the amounts recognised in the fi nancial statements.

3.2 Key sources of estimation uncertainty

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting 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.

(a) Impairment of receivables

The Group and the Company assess at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that a fi nancial asset is impaired. To determine whether there is objective evidence of impairment, the Group and the Company consider factors such as the probability of insolvency or signifi cant fi nancial diffi culties of the debtor and default or signifi cant delay in payments.

Where there is objective evidence of impairment, the amount and timing of future cash fl ows are estimated based on historical loss experience for assets with similar credit risk characteristics. The carrying amount of the Group’s and Company’s receivables at the reporting date is disclosed in Note 23.

(b) Impairment of goodwill

Goodwill is tested for impairment annually and at other times when such indicators exist. This requires an estimation of the value in use of the cash-generating units to which goodwill is allocated.

When value in use calculations are undertaken, management must estimate the expected future cash fl ows from the asset or cash-generating unit and choose a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash fl ows. Further details of the carrying value, the key assumptions applied in the impairment assessment of goodwill and sensitivity analysis to changes in the assumptions are given in Note 20.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES (CONT’D.)

3.2 Key sources of estimation uncertainty (cont’d.)

(c) Measurement of amount due to Johor City Development Sdn. Bhd.

(“JCDSB”)

Amount due to JCDSB is part of the total consideration of RM180 million for JCorp and JCDSB agreeing to appoint Damansara Realty Johor Sdn. Bhd. (“DRJ”), a subsidiary of the Company, as the developer for Taman Damansara Aliff (“TDA”). On 1 July 2011, JCDSB has granted an extension of time of DRJ’s appointment as the developer of TDA for 5 years until 30 September 2016. Accordingly, the term of repayment of amount due to JCDSB was modifi ed to be repayable within 5 years until 30 September 2016. It is repayable on when and as is where is basis subject that DRJ shall undertake to set aside a proportion of proceeds arising from the land sale or development of properties in TDA, for the purpose of settlement of the said amount. The Group has discounted the repayment amount at the interest rate of 8.25% (2015: 8.25%). During the year, the Group has remeasured the amount due to JCDSB based on the one-off repayment in 2016. Accordingly, the present value of the amount due to JCDSB as at year end is RM120,900,000 (2015: RM111,685,000).

(d) Deferred tax assets

Deferred tax assets are recognised for all unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profi t will be available against which the losses can be utilised. Signifi cant management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based on the likely timing and level of future taxable profi ts together with future tax planning strategies.

Assumptions about generation of future taxable profi ts depend on management’s estimates of future cash fl ows. These depends on estimates of future production and sales volume, operating costs, capital expenditure, dividends and other capital management transactions. Judgement is also required about application of income tax legislation. These judgements and assumptions are subject to risks and uncertainty, hence there is a possibility that changes in circumstances will alter expectations, which may impact the amount of deferred tax assets recognised in the statements of fi nancial position and the amount of unrecognised tax losses and unrecognised temporary differences.

The carrying value of deferred tax assets of the Group at 31 December 2016 was RM779,000 (2015: RM501,641) and the unrecognised tax losses and capital allowances at 31 December 2016 was RM8,333,000 (2015: RM49,615,000).

20. GOODWILL ON CONSOLIDATION (CONT’D.)

The recoverable amounts of the CGUs have been determined based on value in use calculations using cash fl ow projections from fi nancial budgets approved by management covering a fi ve-year period. The pre-tax discount rate applied to the cash fl ow projections and the forecasted growth rates used to extrapolate cash fl ows beyond the fi ve-year period are as follows:

Growth rates Pre-tax discount rates 2016 2015 2016 2015

Healthcare services segment 5.0% 5.0% 9.2% 9.2%Property services segment 11.0% 11.0% 9.0% 9.0%

The calculations of value in use for the CGUs are most sensitive to the following assumptions:

Budgeted gross margins – Gross margins are based on average values achieved in the three years preceding the start of the budget period. These are increased over the budget period for anticipated effi ciency improvements.

Growth rates – The forecasted growth rates are based on published industry research and do not exceed the long-term average growth rate for the industries relevant to the CGUs.

Pre-tax discount rates – Discount rates refl ect the current market assessment of the risks specifi c to each CGU. This is the benchmark used by management to assess operating performance and to evaluate future investment proposals.

Market share assumptions – These assumptions are important because, as well as using industry data for growth rates (as noted above), management assesses how the CGU’s position, relative to its competitors, might change over the budget period.

32. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES

The Group and the Company are exposed to fi nancial risks arising from their operations and the use of fi nancial instruments. The key fi nancial risks include credit risk, liquidity risk and interest rate risk.

The Board of Directors reviews and agrees policies and procedures for the management of these risks. The audit committee provides independent oversight to the effectiveness of the risk management process.

It is, and has been throughout the current and previous fi nancial year, the Group’s policy that no derivatives shall be undertaken.

The following sections provide details regarding the Group’s and Company’s exposure to the above-mentioned fi nancial risks and the objectives, policies and processes for the management of these risks.

(a) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of loss that may arise on outstanding fi nancial instruments should a counterparty default on its obligations. The Group’s and the Company’s exposure to credit risk arises primarily from trade and other receivables. For other fi nancial assets (including cash and bank balances), the Group and the Company minimise credit risk by dealing exclusively with high credit rating counterparties.

The Group’s objective is to seek continual revenue growth while minimising losses incurred due to increased credit risk exposure. The Group trades only with recognised and creditworthy third parties. It is the Group’s policy that all customers who wish to trade on credit terms are subject to credit verifi cation procedures. In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the Group’s exposure to bad debts is not signifi cant.

Exposure to credit risk

At the reporting date, the Group’s and the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of each class of fi nancial assets recognised in the statement of fi nancial position.

Information regarding credit enhancements for trade and other receivables is disclosed in Note 22.

32. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (CONT’D.)

(b) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group or the Company will encounter diffi culty in meeting fi nancial obligations due to shortage of funds. The Group’s and the Company’s exposure to liquidity risk arises primarily from mismatches of the maturities of fi nancial assets and liabilities. The Group’s and the Company’s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and fl exibility through the use of stand-by credit facilities.

Analysis of fi nancial instruments by remaining contractual maturities

The table below summarises the maturity profi le of the Group’s and the Company’s liabilities at the reporting date based on contractual undiscounted repayment obligations.

32. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (CONT’D.)

(c) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash fl ows of the Group’s and the Company’s fi nancial instruments will fl uctuate because of changes in market interest rates.

The Group’s and the Company’s exposure to interest rate risk arises primarily from their loans and borrowings. At the reporting date, the Group and Company do not have fl oating rate borrowings.

(d) Foreign currency risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash fl ows of a fi nancial instrument will fl uctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates.

The Group has transactional currency exposures arising from sales or purchases that are denominated in a currency other than the respective functional currencies of the Group entities, primarily RM, Singapore Dollar, Hong Kong Dollar and Indonesian Rupiah. The management believes that the foreign exchange risk is minimal.

It is not the Group’s policy to hedge its transactional foreign currency risk exposure.

33. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The primary objective of the Group’s capital management is to ensure that it maintains a strong credit rating and healthy capital ratios in order to support its business and maximise shareholder value.

The Group manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it, in light of changes in economic conditions. No changes were made in the objectives, policies or processes during the years ended 31 December 2016 and 31 December 2015.

The Group monitors capital using a gearing ratio, which is net debt divided by total capital plus net debt. The Group’s policy is to keep the gearing ratio below 70%. The Group includes within net debt, loans and borrowings, trade and other payables, less cash and bank balances. Capital includes equity attributable to the owners of the parent.
