DEAR
SHAREHOLDERS
On behalf of the Board of Directors of
Acoustech Berhad, I am pleased to
present you the Annual Report and
Audited Financial Statements of the
Group and the Company for the financial
year ended 31 December 2012.

The Audio division remained the Groups leading revenue

and profit contributor accounting for 83% and 94%
respectively in FY2012. Despite revenue growth by 10% to
RM263 million, operating profit was marginally lower at
RM13.4 million compared to RM13.9 million in the prior year.
The result was commendable in view of operational
challenges posed by intense competition and rising
operating costs.
Revenue of the Electrical Equipment division rose 6.6% to
RM41.8 million resulting in higher operating profit.
Increasing sales quantity and widening customer base
continue to be challenging tasks that the Group will focus on
in the immediate future. Any increase in sales quantity is
likely to bring about more meaningful economies of scale in
order to boost profitability.
The performance of Chemical Paint division continued to be
depressed by low revenue and rising operating costs. Its
revenue dropped to RM11.9 million from RM13.1 million
which has resulted in an operating loss. Measures are being
deliberated to revive sales and to put existing resources to
better use.

CHAIRMANS STATEMENT
(Contd)
Financial review
The Group generated revenue of RM316.8 million for FY2012, an increase of 8.8% from RM291.3 million in the prior year.
Gross profit margin was lower at 9.4% in FY2012 compared to 10.9% in the prior year. As a result, profit attributable to
shareholders decreased to RM10.7 million from RM11.3 million. This translated to lower earnings per share of 6.2 sen
compared to 6.6 sen for the previous financial year.
During FY2012, the Group generated cash from operations of RM5 million. The Group ended the financial year with a healthy
balance sheet. The Group is debt free and has cash and cash equivalents (inclusive of short term funds) of RM61 million
compared to RM64 million at the beginning of the year. Turnover for trade receivables and inventories stood at 86 days and
23 days respectively, which were within normal trade terms, compared to 85 days and 44 days at the end of the last financial
year.
Outlook
We anticipate FY2013 to be a challenging year due to intensified competition and rising wages which will impact our sales
and profitability. We strive to position the Group as a low-cost producer through the improvement of productivity and efficiency
coupled with creativity and an innovative mindset. Barring unforeseen circumstances, we expect our Group to remain
profitable in the financial year ending 2013.
Dividends
The Directors had paid an interim single tier dividend of 4.0 sen per ordinary share or RM6.9 million for FY2012 compared
to 5.0 sen per ordinary share or RM8.6 million for the previous financial year.
Appreciation
In closing, the Board and Management would like to thank the Directors for their contributions, as well as our employees
whose commitment, hard work and dedication form the solid foundation of this Company, helping us to rise above all
challenges.
Last but not least, we would like to thank our business partners, clients and our loyal shareholders for their unwavering
support and trust. We look forward to your continued support in the years ahead.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT

Acoustech Berhad is committed to business integrity and best practices in all its activities. As part of this commitment, the
Board of Directors (Board) is pleased to report to its shareholders on the application of the Principles as set out in the
Malaysian Code on Corporate Governance 2012 (MCCG 2012).
1. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

1.1 Board Responsibilities
The Board retains effective control of the Company and the Group and is responsible for the overall corporate affairs,
strategic direction, formulation of policies and the overall performance of the Company and the Group.
The Executive Directors take on primary responsibility for managing the Groups business and resources.
1.2 Board Balance
The Company is led by an experienced Board comprising seven (7) members as at the date of this statement, of
whom three (3) are Independent Non-Executive Directors, two (2) are Non-Independent Non-Executive Directors
and two (2) are Executive Directors.
No individual or group of individuals dominates the Boards decision making. Independent Directors constitute more
than one third of the Board and the interest of the significant shareholder is fairly represented on the Board. The
present Directors bring a wide range of experience and skills relevant to the business of the Group. Brief descriptions
on the background of each Director are set out on pages 11 to 13.
One of the recommendations of the MCCG 2012 states that the tenure of an independent director should not exceed
a cumulative term of 9 years. However, the Nomination Committee and the Board have determined at their annual
assessment determined that all the independent directors are objective and independent in expressing their views
and in participating in deliberations and decision making of the Board and Board Committees. The length of their
service on the Board does not in any way interfere with the exercise of independent judgement and their ability to
act in the best interests of the Company. The Board will table a proposal to retain Dato Nik Abdul Aziz bin Mohamed
Kamil, Mr Soon Kwai Choy and Mr Leong Ngai Seng as independent directors for shareholders approval at the
upcoming Annual General Meeting of the Company.
There is clear division of responsibility between the Chairman and Managing Director to ensure the balance of power
and authority. The Managing Director is under the control of the Board. The Independent Non-Executive Directors
provide independent judgement and check and balance on the Board.
The MCCG 2012 states that the Board must comprise a majority of independent directors where the Chairman of
the Board is not an independent director. The Chairman of the Board is Mr Chang Song Hai, a non independent non
executive director. He was appointed after considering his wide experience in plastic moulding industry. Compliance
with the MCCG 2012 will require an increase in the current size of the Board. The current size and composition of
the Board are considered adequate to provide the optimum skills and experience. Furthermore the Board is of the
view that the current Board size is balanced in skills and composition.

The Board further recognizes its responsibility for reviewing the adequacy and integrity of the Groups internal control systems
and management information systems.
In view of the limitations that are inherent in any systems of internal control, the Groups system of internal control is designed
to manage rather than eliminate the risk of failure to achieve business objective and can only provide reasonable and not
absolute assurance against material misstatement or loss.
The Board confirms that there is a continuous process in place to identify, evaluate and manage the significant risks that
may affect the achievement of business objectives. The process which has been instituted throughtout the group is updated
and reviewed from time to time to be relevant to the changes in the business environment, and this on-going process has
been in place for the whole financial year under review and up to the date of adoption of this Anuual report.

and accept responsibility for risks associated with their area of authority. The necessary support, assistance and commitment
of senior management will be provided.

to ascertain that proper action had been taken in relation to the writing off of bad debts and the making of
provision for doubtful debts and satisfied themselves that all known bad debts had been written off and that
provision need not be made for doubtful debts; and
(ii)
to ensure that any current assets other than debts, which were unlikely to realise their book values in the
ordinary course of business had been written down to their estimated realisable values.
In the opinion of the Directors, the results of the operations of the Group and of the Company during the financial
year have not been substantially affected by any item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT

TO THE MEMBERS OF ACOUSTECH BERHAD
Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the financial statements of Acoustech Berhad, which comprise the statements of financial position as at
31 December 2012 of the Group and of the Company, and the statements of comprehensive income, statements of changes
in equity and statements of cash flows of the Group and of the Company for the financial year then ended, and a summary
of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, as set out on pages 39 to 104.
Directors Responsibility for the Financial Statements

The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of financial statements so as to give a true and fair view
in accordance with Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards, International Financial Reporting Standards, and the
requirements of the Companies Act, 1965 in Malaysia. The Directors are also responsible for such internal control as the
Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement,
whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in
accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia. Those standards require that we comply with ethical
requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. The procedures selected depend on our judgement, including the assessment of risks of material misstatement
of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, we consider internal control
relevant to the entitys preparation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view 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 entitys
internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness
of accounting estimates made by the Directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Group and of the Company
as of 31 December 2012 and of their financial performance and cash flows for the financial year then ended in accordance
with Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards, International Financial Reporting Standards and the requirements of the
Companies Act, 1965 in Malaysia.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT

TO THE MEMBERS OF ACOUSTECH BERHAD (Contd)

In accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act, 1965 in Malaysia, we also report the following:
(a)
In our opinion, the accounting and other records and the registers required by the Act to be kept by the Company and
its subsidiaries have been properly kept in accordance with the provisions of the Act.
(b)
We are satisfied that the financial statements of the subsidiaries that have been consolidated with the Companys
financial statements are in form and content appropriate and proper for the purposes of the preparation of the financial
statements of the Group and we have received satisfactory information and explanations required by us for those purposes.
(c)
The audit reports on the financial statements of the subsidiaries did not contain any qualification or any adverse
comment made under Section 174(3) of the Act.
Other Reporting Responsibilities

The supplementary information set out in Note 33 to the financial statements is disclosed to meet the requirement of Bursa
Malaysia Securities Berhad and is not part of the financial statements. The Directors are responsible for the preparation of
the supplementary information in accordance with Guidance on Special Matter No. 1, Determination of Realised and
Unrealised Profits or Losses in the Context of Disclosure Pursuant to Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad Listing Requirements,
as issued by the Malaysian Institute of Accountants (MIA Guidance) and the directive of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad.
In our opinion, the supplementary information is prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the MIA Guidance
and the directive of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad.
Other Matters
As stated in Note 3 to the financial statements, Acoustech Berhad adopted Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards on 1
January 2012 with a transition date of 1 January 2011. These Standards were applied retrospectively by Directors to the
comparative information in these financial statements, including the statements of financial position as at 31 December 2011
and 1 January 2011, and the statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows
for the financial year then ended 31 December 2011 and related disclosures. We were not engaged to report on the restated
comparative information, and it is unaudited. Our responsibilities as part of our audit of the financial statements of the Group
and of the Company for the financial year ended 31 December 2012 have, in these circumstances, included obtaining sufficient
appropriate audit evidence that the opening balances as at 1 January 2012 do not contain misstatements that materially affect
the financial position as of 31 December 2012 and financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended.
This report is made solely to the members of the Company, as a body, in accordance with Section 174 of the Companies Act,
1965 in Malaysia and for no other purpose. We do not assume responsibility to any other person for the content of this report.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

31 DECEMBER 2012
1.
The Company is a public limited liability company, incorporated and domiciled in Malaysia, and is listed on the Main
Market of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad.
The registered office of the Company is located at Level 18, The Gardens North Tower, Mid Valley City, Lingkaran Syed
Putra, 59200 Kuala Lumpur.
The principal place of business of the Company is located at No. 2, Jalan 1, Bandar Sultan Suleiman, Taiwanese
Industrial Park, 42000 Port Klang, Selangor Darul Ehsan.
The consolidated financial statements for the financial year ended 31 December 2012 comprise the Company and its
subsidiaries and the Groups interest in a jointly controlled entity. These financial statements are presented in Ringgit
Malaysia (RM), which is also the Companys functional currency.
The financial statements were authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution by the Board of Directors
on 25 April 2013.
2.
PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES
The Company is an investment holding company. The principal activities of the subsidiaries are set out in Note 8 to the
financial statements. There have been no significant changes in the nature of these activities during the financial year.
3.
BASIS OF PREPARATION
The financial statements of the Group and of the Company set out on pages 39 to 104 have been prepared in
accordance with Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards (MFRSs), International Financial Reporting Standards
(IFRSs) and the provisions of the Companies Act, 1965 in Malaysia.
These are the Group and the Companys first financial statements prepared in accordance with MFRSs, and MFRS 1
First-time Adoption of Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards has been applied. In the previous financial years, the
financial statements of the Group and of the Company were prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standards
(FRSs) in Malaysia.
The Group and Company have consistently applied the same accounting policies in its opening MFRS statements of
financial position as at 1 January 2011 and throughout all financial years presented, as if these policies had always
been in effect. Comparative figures for the financial year ended 2011 in these financial statements have been restated
to give effect to these changes, if any, and Note 32 to the financial statements discloses the impact of the transition to
MFRS on the Group and Companys reported financial position, financial performance and cash flows for the financial
year then ended.
However, Note 33 to the financial statements set out on page 105 has been prepared in accordance with Guidance on
Special Matter No. 1, Determination of Realised and Unrealised Profits or Losses in the Context of Disclosure Pursuant
to Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad Listing Requirements, as issued by the Malaysian Institute of Accountants (MIA
Guidance) and the directive of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad.

31 DECEMBER 2012 (Contd)
4.
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

4.1 Basis of accounting
The financial statements of the Group and of the Company have been prepared under the historical cost
convention except as otherwise stated in the financial statements.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with MFRSs requires the Directors to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and disclosure of
contingent assets and contingent liabilities. In addition, the Directors are also required to exercise their judgement
in the process of applying the accounting policies. The areas involving such judgements, estimates and
assumptions are disclosed in Note 6 to the financial statements. Although these estimates and assumptions are
based on the Directors best knowledge of events and actions, actual results could differ from those estimates.
4.2 Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and all its subsidiaries.
Subsidiaries are entities (including special purposes entities) over which the Company has the power to govern
the financial operating policies, generally accompanied by a shareholding giving rise to the majority of the voting
rights, as to obtain benefits from their activities.
Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group up to the effective date
on which control ceases, as appropriate.
Intragroup balances, transactions, income and expenses are eliminated on consolidation. Unrealised gains arising
from transactions with associates and joint ventures are eliminated against the investment to the extent of the
Groups interest in the investee. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only
to the extent that there is no impairment.
The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as that of the Company,
using consistent accounting policies. Where necessary, accounting policies of subsidiaries are changed to ensure
consistency with the policies adopted by the other entities in the Group.
Non-controlling interests represents the equity in subsidiaries that are not attributable, directly or indirectly, to
owners of the Company, and is presented separately in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income
and within equity in the consolidated statement of financial position, separately from equity attributable to owners
of the Company. Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners
of the parent and to the non-controlling interests. Total comprehensive income is attributed to non-controlling
interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.
Components of non-controlling interests in the acquiree that are present ownership interests and entitle their
holders to a proportionate share of the entitys net assets in the event of liquidation are initially measured at the
present ownership instruments proportionate share in the recognised amounts of the acquirees identifiable net
assets. All other components of non-controlling interests shall be measured at their acquisition-date fair values,
unless another measurement basis is required by MFRSs. The choice of measurement basis is made on an
combination-by combination basis. Subsequent to initial recognition, the carrying amount of non-controlling
interests is the amount of those interests at initial recognition plus the non-controlling interests share of
subsequent changes in equity.
50

4.
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

4.2 Basis of consolidation (continued)
Changes in the Company owners ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are
accounted for as equity transactions. In such circumstances, the carrying amounts of the controlling and non
controlling interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiary. Any difference
between the amount by which thenon-controlling interest is adjusted and the fair value of consideration paid or
received is recognised directly in equity and attributed to owners of the parent.
When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, the profit or loss on disposal is 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 (including goodwill), and liabilities of the subsidiary and any
non-controlling interests.
Amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to the subsidiary are accounted for
(i.e. reclassified to profit or loss or transferred directly to retained earnings) in the same manner as would be
required if the relevant assets or liabilities were disposed of. The fair value of any investments retained in the
former subsidiary at the date when control is lost is regarded as the fair value on initial recognition for subsequent
accounting under MFRS 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement or, where applicable, the cost
on initial recognition of an investment in associate or jointly controlled entity.
4.3 Business combinations
Business combinations from 1 January 2011 onwards
Business combinations are accounted for by applying the acquisition method of accounting.
Identifiable assets acquired, liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured
at their fair value at the acquisition date, except that:
(a)
deferred tax assets or liabilities and liabilities or assets related to employee benefit arrangements are
recognised and measured in accordance with MFRS 112 Income Taxes and MFRS 119 Employee
Benefits respectively;
(b)
liabilities or equity instruments related to share-based payment transactions of the acquiree or the
replacement by the Group of an acquirees share-based payment transactions are measured in accordance
with MFRS 2 Share-based Payment at the acquisition date; and
(c)
assets (or disposal groups) that are classified as held for sale in accordance with MFRS 5 Non-current
Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations are measured in accordance with that Standard.
Acquisition-related costs are recognised as expenses in the periods in which the costs are incurred and the
serviced are received.
Any contingent consideration payable is recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. Measurement period
adjustments to contingent consideration are dealt with as follows:
(a)
If the contingent consideration is classified as equity, it is not remeasured and settlement is accounted for
within equity.
51

4.

4.3 Business combinations (continued)
Business combinations from 1 January 2011 onwards (continued)
(b)
Subsequent changes to contingent consideration classified as an asset or liability that is a financial

instrument within the scope of MFRS 139 are recognised either in profit or loss or in other comprehensive
income in accordance with MFRS 139. All other subsequent changes are recognised in profit or loss.
In a business combination achieved in stages, previously held equity interests in the acquiree are re-measured
to fair value at the acquisition date and any corresponding gain or loss is recognised in profits or loss.
The Group elects for each individual business combination, whether non-controlling interest in the acquiree
(if any) is recognised on the acquisition date at fair value, or at the non-controlling interests proportionate share
of the acquiree net identifiable assets.
Any excess of the sum of the fair value of the consideration transferred in the business combination, the amount
of non-controlling interest in the acquiree (if any), and the fair value of the Groups previously held equity interest
in the acquiree (if any), over the net fair value of the acquirees identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as
goodwill in the statement of financial position. In instances where the latter amount exceeds the former, the excess
is recognised as a gain on bargain purchase in profit or loss on the acquisition date.
Business combinations before 1 January 2011
As part of its transition to MFRSs, the Group elected not to restate those business combinations that occurred
before the date of transition to MFRSs, i.e. 1 January 2011.
4.4 Property, plant and equipment and depreciation
All items of property, plant and equipment are initially measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation and any
accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset.
Subsequent costs are included in the assets carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only
when the cost is incurred and it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the asset would flow to
the Group and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of parts that are replaced is
derecognised. The costs of the day-to-day servicing of property, plant and equipment are recognised in profit or loss
as incurred. Cost also comprises the initial estimate of dismantling and removing the asset and restoring the site on
which it is located for which the Group is obligated to incur when the asset is acquired, if applicable.
Each part of an item of property, plant and equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the
asset and which has different useful life, is depreciated separately.
52

4.

4.4 Property, plant and equipment and depreciation (continued)
After initial recognition, property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any
accumulated impairment losses.
Depreciation is calculated to write off the costs of the assets to their residual values on a straight line basis over
their estimated useful lives. The principal depreciation periods are as follows:
Factory buildings
Leasehold land
Plant, machinery and equipment
Office equipment
Furniture and fittings
Motor vehicles
Renovations and installations
Canteen equipment
50 years
60 - 99 years
1 - 10 years
1 - 10 years
1 - 10 years
5 years
1 - 10 years
1 - 10 years
At the end of each reporting period, the carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment is assessed
for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable.
A write down is made if the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount (see Note 4.8 to the financial
statements on impairment of non-financial assets).
The residual values, useful lives and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period to
ensure that the amount, method and period of depreciation are consistent with previous estimates and the
expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits embodied in the items of property, plant and
equipment. If expectations differ from previous estimates, the changes are accounted for as a change in an
accounting estimate.
The carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised on disposal or when no future
economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. The difference between the net disposal proceeds, if
any, and the carrying amount is included in profit or loss.
4.5 Leases
(a)
Finance leases
Assets acquired under finance leases which transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to
the Group are recognised initially at amounts equal to the fair value of the leased assets or, if lower, the
present value of the minimum lease payments, each determined at the inception of the lease. The discount
rate used in calculating the present value of the minimum lease payments is the interest rate implicit in the
leases, if this is practicable to determine; if not, the Groups incremental borrowing rate is used. Any initial
direct costs incurred by the Group are added to the amount recognised as an asset. The assets are
capitalised as property, plant and equipment and the corresponding obligations are treated as liabilities. The
property, plant and equipment capitalised are depreciated on the same basis as owned assets.
The minimum lease payments are apportioned between the finance charges and the reduction of the
outstanding liability. The finance charges are recognised in profit or loss over the period of the lease term
so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining lease liabilities.
53

4.

4.5 Leases (continued)
(b)
Operating leases
A lease is classified as an operating lease if it does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards
incidental to ownership.
Lease payments under operating leases are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the
lease term.
(c)
Leases of land and buildings

For leases of land and building, the land and buildings elements are considered separately for the purpose
of lease classification and these leases are classified as operating or finance leases in the same way as
leases of other assets.
The minimum lease payments including any lump-sum upfront payments made to acquire the interest in
the land and building are allocated between the land and the building elements of the lease in proportion to
the relative fair values of leasehold interest in the land element and the buildings element of the lease at the
inception of the lease.
For a lease of land and buildings in which the amount that would initially be recognised for the land element
is immaterial, the land and buildings are treated as a single unit for the purpose of lease classification and
is accordingly classified as a finance or operating lease. In such a case, the economic life of the buildings
is regarded as the economic life of the entire leased asset.
4.6 Investments
(a)
Subsidiaries
A subsidiary is an entity in which the Group and the Company have power to control the financial and
operating policies so as to obtain benefits from its activities. The existence and effect of potential voting
rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Group has
such power over another entity.
An investment in subsidiary, which is eliminated on consolidation, is stated in the Companys separate
financial statements at cost. Put options written over non-controlling interests on the acquisition of subsidiary
shall be included as part of the cost of investment in the Companys separate financial statements.
Subsequent changes in the fair value of the written put options over non-controlling interests shall be
recognised in profit or loss. Investments accounted for at cost shall be accounted for in accordance with
MFRS 5 Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations when they are classified as held
for sale (or included in a disposal group that is classified as held for sale) in accordance with MFRS 5.
When control of a subsidiary is lost as a result of a transaction, event or other circumstance, the Group
would derecognise all assets, liabilities and non-controlling interests at their carrying amount and to
recognise the fair value of the consideration received. Any retained interest in the former subsidiary is
recognised at its fair value at the date control is lost. The resulting difference is recognised as a gain or loss
in profit or loss.
54

4.

4.6 Investments (continued)
(b)
Jointly controlled entity

A jointly controlled entity is a joint venture that involves the establishment of a corporation, partnership or
other entities over which there is contractually agreed sharing of joint control over the economic activity of
the entity. Joint control exists when strategic financial and operational decisions relating to the activity
require the unanimous consent of all the parties sharing control.
In the entitys separate financial statements, an investment in jointly controlled entity is stated at cost.
The investment in jointly controlled entity is accounted for in the consolidated financial statements using the
equity method of accounting. The Groups share of the profit or loss of the jointly controlled entity during the
financial year is included in the consolidated financial statements, after adjustments to align the accounting
policies with those of the Group, from the date that joint control commences until the date that joint
control ceases.
The Group recognises the portion of gains and losses on the sale of assets by the Group to the joint venture
that is attributable to the other venturers. The Group does not recognise its share of profits or losses from
the joint venture until it results from the purchase of assets by the Group from the joint venture until it resells
the assets to an independent party. However, a loss on the transaction is recognised immediately if the loss
provides evidence of a reduction in the net realisable value of current assets or an impairment loss. When
necessary, in applying the equity method, adjustments are made to the financial statements of the jointly
controlled entity to ensure consistency of accounting policies with those of the Group.
Adjustments to the carrying amount may also be necessary for changes in the Groups proportionate interest
in the jointly controlled entity arising from changes in the jointly controlled entitys equity that have not been
recognised in the jointly controlled entitys profit or loss. Such changes include those arising from the
revaluation of property, plant and equipment and from foreign exchange translation differences. The Groups
share of those changes is recognised directly in equity of the Group.
Upon disposal of such investment, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and its carrying amount
is included in profit or loss.
4.7 Research and development costs

Expenditure on development activities of internally developed products is recognised as an intangible asset when
it relates to the production of new or substantively improved products and processes and when the Group can
demonstrate that it is technically feasible to develop the product or processes, adequate resources are available
to complete the development and that there is an intention to complete and sell the product or processes to
generate future economic benefits.
Development expenditure not satisfying the criteria mentioned and expenditure arising from research or from the
research phase of internal projects are recognised in profit or loss as incurred.
Research expenditure shall be recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.
55

4.

4.8 Impairment of non-financial assets
The carrying amount of assets, except for financial assets (excluding investments in subsidiaries and a jointly
controlled entity) and inventories and deferred tax assets, are reviewed at the end of each reporting period to
determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the assets recoverable
amount is estimated.
The recoverable amount of an asset is estimated for an individual asset. Where it is not possible to estimate the
recoverable amount of the individual asset, the impairment test is carried out on the cash generating unit (CGU)
to which the asset belongs.
The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the higher of its fair value less cost to sell and its value in use.
In estimating the value in use, the estimated future cash inflows and outflows to be derived from continuing use
of the asset and from its ultimate disposal are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that
reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the
future cash flow estimates have not been adjusted. An impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss when the
carrying amount of the asset or the CGU exceeds the recoverable amount of the asset or the CGU. The total
impairment loss is allocated to the assets of the CGU on a pro-rata basis of the carrying amount of each asset in
the CGU.
The impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately.
An impairment loss for assets is reversed if, and only if, there has been a change in the estimates used to
determine the assets recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised.
An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the assets carrying amount does not exceed the carrying
amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had
been recognised.
Such reversals are recognised as income immediately in profit or loss.
4.9 Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out formula. The cost of raw materials comprises all cost of purchase
plus the cost of bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. The cost of work-in-progress and
finished goods includes the cost of raw materials, direct labour, other direct cost and a proportion of production
overheads based on normal operating capacity of the production facilities.
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of
completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
56

4.

4.10 Financial instruments
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one enterprise and a financial liability
or equity instrument of another enterprise.
A financial asset is any asset that is cash, an equity instrument of another enterprise, a contractual right to receive
cash or another financial asset from another enterprise, or a contractual right to exchange financial assets or
financial liabilities with another enterprise under conditions that are potentially favourable to the Group.
A financial liability is any liability that is a contractual obligation to deliver cash or another financial asset to another
enterprise, or a contractual obligation to exchange financial assets or financial liabilities with another enterprise
under conditions that are potentially unfavourable to the Group.
Financial instruments are recognised on the statement of financial position when the Group has become a party
to the contractual provisions of the instrument. At initial recognition, a financial instrument is recognised at fair
value plus, in the case of a financial instrument not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are
directly attributable to the acquisition or issuance of the financial instrument.
An embedded derivative is separated from the host contract and accounted for as a derivative if, and only if the
economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative is not closely related to the economic
characteristics and risks of the host contract, a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded
derivative meets the definition of a derivative, and the hybrid instrument is not measured at fair value through
profit or loss.
(a)
Financial assets
A financial asset is classified into the following four (4) categories after initial recognition for the purpose of
subsequent measurement:
(i)
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss comprise financial assets that are held for trading
(i.e. financial assets acquired principally for the purpose of resale in the near term), derivatives (both,
freestanding and embedded) and financial assets that were specifically designated into this
classification upon initial recognition.
Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss are
measured at fair value. Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of financial
assetsclassified as at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in profit or loss. Net gains or
losses on financial assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss exclude foreign exchange
gains and losses, interest and dividend income. Such income is recognised separately in profit or loss
as components of other income or other operating losses.
However, derivatives that is linked to and must be settled by delivery of unquoted equity instruments
that do not have a quoted market price in an active market are recognised at cost.
57

4.

4.10 Financial instruments (continued)
(a)
Financial assets (continued)

(ii)
Held-to-maturity investments
Financial assets classified as held-to-maturity comprise non-derivative financial assets with fixed or
determinable payments and fixed maturity that the Group has the positive intention and ability to hold
to maturity.
Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets classified as held-to-maturity are measured at
amortised cost using the effective interest method. Gains or losses on financial assets classified as
held-to-maturity are recognised in profit or loss when the financial assets are derecognised or impaired,
and through the amortisation process.
(iii)
Loans and receivables

Financial assets classified as loans and receivables comprise non-derivative financial assets with fixed
or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market.
Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets classified as loans and receivables are measured at
amortised cost using the effective interest method. Gains or losses on financial assets classified as
loans and receivables are recognised in profit or loss when the financial assets are derecognised or
impaired, and through the amortisation process.
(iv) Available-for-sale financial assets

Financial assets classified as available-for-sale comprise non-derivative financial assets that are
designated as available-for-sale or are not classified as loans and receivables, held-to-maturity
investments or financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.
Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets classified as available-for-sale are measured at fair
value. Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of financial assets classified as
available-for-sale are recognised directly in other comprehensive income, except for impairment losses
and foreign exchange gains and losses, until the financial asset is derecognised, at which time the
cumulative gains or losses previously recognised in other comprehensive income are recognised in
profit or loss. However, interest calculated using the effective interest method is recognised in profit
or loss whilst dividends on available-for-sale equity instruments are recognised in profit or loss when
the Groups right to receive payment is established.
Cash and cash equivalents include cash and bank balances, bank overdrafts, deposits and other short term,
highly liquid investments with original maturities of three (3) months or less, which are readily convertible to
cash and are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value.
A financial asset is derecognised when the contractual right to receive cash flows from the financial
asset has expired. On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the
carrying amount and the sum of consideration received (including any new asset obtained less any
new liability assumed) and any cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised directly in other
comprehensive income shall be recognised in profit or loss.
58

4.

(a)
Financial assets (continued)

A regular way purchase or sale is a purchase or sale of a financial asset under a contract whose terms
require delivery of the asset within the time frame established generally by regulation or marketplace
convention. A regular way purchase or sale of financial assets shall be recognised and derecognised, as
applicable, using trade date accounting.
(b)
Financial liabilities
Financial instruments are classified as liabilities or equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual
arrangement. A financial liability is classified into the following two (2) categories after initial recognition for
the purpose of subsequent measurement:
(i)
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss comprise financial liabilities that are held for
trading, derivatives (both, freestanding and embedded) and financial liabilities that were specifically
designated into this classification upon initial recognition.
Subsequent to initial recognition, financial liabilities classified as at fair value through profit or loss are
measured at fair value. Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of financial liabilities
classified as at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in profit or loss. Net gains or losses on
financial liabilities classified as at fair value through profit or loss exclude foreign exchange gains and
losses, interest and dividend income. Such income is recognised separately in profit or loss as
components of other income or other operating losses.
(ii)
Other financial liabilities

Financial liabilities classified as other financial liabilities comprise non-derivative financial liabilities that
are neither held for trading nor initially designated as at fair value through profit or loss.
Subsequent to initial recognition, other financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the
effective interest method. Gains or losses on other financial liabilities are recognised in profit or loss
when the financial liabilities are derecognised and through the amortisation process.
A financial liability is derecognised when, and only when, it is extinguished, i.e. when the obligation specified
in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires. An exchange between an existing borrower and lender
of debt instruments with substantially different terms are accounted for as an extinguishment of the original
financial liability and the recognition of a new financial liability. Similarly, a substantial modification of the
terms of an existing financial liability is accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability
and the recognition of a new financial liability.
The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability extinguished or transferred to another
party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is
recognised in profit or loss.
A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse
the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due in accordance
with the original or modified terms of a debt instrument.

4.

(c)
Equity
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 classified as equity instruments.
Ordinary shares are recorded at the nominal value and proceeds in excess of the nominal value of shares
issued, if any, are accounted for as share premium. Both ordinary shares and share premium are classified
as equity. Transaction costs of an equity transaction are accounted for as a deduction from equity, net of
any related income tax benefit. Otherwise, they are charged to profit or loss.
Interim dividends to shareholders are recognised in equity in the period in which they are declared. Final
dividends are recognised upon the approval of shareholders in a general meeting.
The Group measures a liability to distribute non-cash assets as a dividend to the owners of the Company
at the fair value of the assets to be distributed. The carrying amount of the dividend is remeasured at each
reporting date and at the settlement date, with any changes recognised directly in equity as adjustments to
the amount of the distribution. On settlement of the transaction, the Group recognises the difference, if any,
between the carrying amount of the assets distributed and the carrying amount of the liability in profit or loss.
When the Group repurchases its own shares, the shares repurchased would be accounted for using the
treasury stock method.
Where the treasury stock method is applied, the shares repurchased and held as treasury shares shall be
measured and carried at the cost of repurchase on initial recognition and subsequently. It shall not be
revalued for subsequent changes in the fair value or market price of the shares.
The carrying amount of the treasury shares shall be offset against equity in the statement of financial position.
To the extent that the carrying amount of the treasury shares exceeds the share premium account, it shall
be considered as a reduction of any other reserves as may be permitted by the Main Market Listing Requirements.
No gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the own equity
instruments of the Company. If such shares are issued by resale, any difference between the sales
consideration and the carrying amount is shown as a movement in equity.
4.11 Impairment of financial assets

The Group assesses whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset is impaired at the end of each
reporting period.
(a)

The Group collectively considers factors such as the probability of bankruptcy or significant financial
difficulties of the receivable, and default or significant delay in payments to determine whether there is
objective evidence that an impairment loss on loans and receivables has occurred. Other objective evidence
of impairment include historical collection rates determined on an individual basis and observable changes
in national or local economic conditions that are directly correlated with the historical default rates
of receivables.
60

4.

4.11 Impairment of financial assets (continued)
(a)
Loans and receivables (continued)

If any such objective evidence exists, the amount of impairment loss is measured as the difference between
the financial assets carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the
financial assets original effective interest rate. The impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss.
The carrying amount of loans and receivables is reduced through the use of an allowance account.
If in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and it objectively relates 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 impairment reversed is recognised in profit or loss.
(b)
Available-for-sale financial assets

The Group collectively considers factors such as significant or prolonged decline in fair value below cost,
significant financial difficulties of the issuer or obligor, and the disappearance of an active trading market as
objective evidence that available-for-sale financial assets are impaired.
If any such objective evidence exists, an amount comprising the difference between the financial assets
cost (net of any principal payment and amortisation) and current fair value, less any impairment loss
previously recognised in profit or loss, is transferred from equity to profit or loss.
Impairment losses on available-for-sale equity investments are not reversed in profit or loss in the
subsequent periods. Instead, any increase in the fair value subsequent to the impairment loss is recognised
in other comprehensive income.
4.12 Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualified asset is
capitalised as part of the cost of the asset until when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the asset
for its intended use or sale are complete, after which such expense is charged to profit or loss. A qualifying asset
is an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale. Capitalisation
of borrowing cost is suspended during extended periods in which active development is interrupted.
The amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation is the actual borrowing costs incurred on the borrowing
during the period less any investment income on the temporary investment of the borrowing.
All other borrowing cost is recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.
4.13 Income taxes
Income taxes include all domestic taxes on taxable profit and real property gains taxes payable on disposal of properties.
Taxes in the statement of comprehensive income comprise current tax and deferred tax.
(a)
Current tax
Current tax expenses are determined according to the tax laws of each jurisdiction in which the Group
operates and include all taxes based upon the taxable profits and real property gains taxes payable on
disposal of properties, if any.
61

4.

4.13 Income taxes (continued)
(b)
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in full using the liability method on temporary differences arising between the
carrying amount of an asset or liability in the statement of financial position and its tax base.
Deferred tax is recognised for all temporary differences, unless the deferred tax arises from the initial
recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction which is not a business combination and at the time of
transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit.
A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be
available against which the deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and unused tax credits can
be utilised. The carrying amount of a deferred tax asset is reviewed at the end of each reporting period. If
it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow the benefit of part or all of that
deferred tax asset to be utilised, the carrying amount of the deferred tax asset will be reduced accordingly.
When it becomes probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available, such reductions will be reversed to
the extent of the taxable profits.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax
assets against current tax liabilities and when the deferred income taxes relate to the same taxation authority
on either:
(i)
the same taxable entity; or
(ii)
different taxable entities which intend either to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis,
or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which significant
amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be settled or recovered.
Deferred tax would be recognised as income or expense and included in profit or loss for the period unless
the tax relates to items that are credited or charged, in the same or a different period, directly to equity, in
which case the deferred tax will be charged or credited directly to equity.
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 by the Government in the
annual budgets which have the substantial effect of actual enactment by the end of the reporting period.
4.14 Provisions
Provisions are recognised when there is a present obligation, legal or constructive, as a result of a past event,
when it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits would be required to settle the
obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Where the Group expects a
provision to be reimbursed, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when the
reimbursement is virtually certain.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, the amount of a provision would be discounted to its present
value at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific
to the liability.
62

4.

4.14 Provisions (continued)
Provisions are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. If it
is no longer probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits would be required to settle the
obligation, the provision would be reversed.
Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses. If the Group has a contract that is onerous, the present
obligation under the contract shall be recognised and measured as a provision.
4.15 Contingent liabilities and contingent assets
A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whose existence would be confirmed by
the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the Group or a
present obligation that is not recognised because it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required
to settle the obligation. A contingent liability also arises in extremely rare cases where there is a liability that cannot
be recognised because it cannot be measured reliably. The Group does not recognise a contingent liability but
discloses its existence in the financial statements.
A contingent asset is a possible asset that arises from past events whose existence would be confirmed by the
occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the Group. The Group
does not recognise contingent assets but disclose its existence where inflows of economic benefits are probable,
but not virtually certain.
In the acquisition of subsidiaries by the Group under business combinations, contingent liabilities assumed are
measured initially at their fair value at the acquisition date.
4.16 Employee benefits
(a)
Short term employee benefits

Wages, salaries, social security contributions, paid annual leave, paid sick leave, bonuses and non-monetary
benefits are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed when employees have rendered their
services to the Group.
Short term accumulating compensated absences such as paid annual leave are recognised as an expense
when employees render services that increase their entitlement to future compensated absences. Short
term non-accumulating compensated absences such as sick leave are recognised when the absences occur
and they lapse if the current periods entitlement is not used in full and do not entitle employees to a cash
payment for unused entitlement on leaving the Group.
Bonuses are recognised as an expense when there is a present, legal or constructive obligation to make
such payments, as a result of past events and when a reliable estimate can be made of the amount
of the obligation.
(b)
Defined contribution plan

The Company and its subsidiaries make contributions to a statutory provident fund. The contributions are
recognised as a liability after deducting any contribution already paid and as an expense in the period in
which the employees render their services.
63

4.

4.17 Foreign currencies
(a)
Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the financial statements of each of the Groups entities are measured using the currency
of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the functional currency). The
consolidated financial statements are presented in Ringgit Malaysia, which is the Companys functional and
presentation currency.
(b)
Foreign currency translations and balances

Transactions in foreign currencies are converted into functional currency at rates of exchange ruling at the
transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies at the end of the reporting period are
translated into functional currency at rates of exchange ruling at that date unless hedged by forward foreign
exchange contracts, in which case the rates specified in such forward contracts are used. All exchange
differences arising from the settlement of foreign currency transactions and from the translation of foreign
currency monetary assets and liabilities are included in profit or loss in the period in which they arise. Non
monetary items initially denominated in foreign currencies, which are carried at historical cost are translated
using the historical rate as of the date of acquisition, and non-monetary items which are carried at fair value
are translated using the exchange rate that existed when the values were determined for presentation
currency purposes.
4.18 Revenue recognition

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivables, net of discounts and rebates.
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction
would flow to the Group, and the amount of revenue and the cost incurred or to be incurred in respect of the
transaction can be reliably measured and specific recognition criteria have been met for each of the Groups
activities as follows:
(a)
Sale of goods
Revenue from sale of goods is recognised when significant risk and rewards of ownership of the goods has
been transferred to the customer and where the Group retains neither continuing managerial involvement
over the goods, which coincides with the delivery of goods and services and acceptance by customers.
(b)
Dividend income
Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive payment is established.
(c)
Interest and rental income

Interest and rental income are recognised on accrual basis.
4.19 Operating segments

Operating segments are defined as components of the Group that:
(a)
engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses (including revenues
and expenses relating to transactions with other components of the Group);
64

4.

4.19 Operating segments (continued)
(b)
whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the Groups chief operating decision maker (i.e. the
Groups Chief Executive Officer) in making decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and
assessing its performance; and
(c)
for which discrete financial information is available.
An operating segment may engage in business activities for which it has yet to earn revenues.
The Group reports separately information about each operating segment that meets any of the following
quantitative thresholds:
(a)
Its reported revenue, including both sales to external customers and intersegment sales or transfers, is ten
(10) per cent or more of the combined revenue, internal and external, of all operating segments.
(b)
The absolute amount of its reported profit or loss is ten (10) per cent or more of the greater, in absolute
amount of:
(c)
(i)
the combined reported profit of all operating segments that did not report a loss; and
(ii)
the combined reported loss of all operating segments that reported a loss.
Its assets are ten (10) per cent or more of the combined assets of all operating segments.
Operating segments that do not meet any of the quantitative thresholds may be considered reportable, and
separately disclosed, if the management believes that information about the segment would be useful to users of
the financial statements.
Total external revenue reported by operating segments shall constitute at least seventy five (75) percent of the
Groups revenue. Operating segments identified as reportable segments in the current financial year in
accordance with the quantitative threshold, if any, would result in a restatement of prior period segment data for
comparative purposes.
4.20 Earnings per share
(a)
Basic
Basic earnings per ordinary share for the financial year is calculated by dividing the profit for the financial
year attributable to equity holders of the parent by the weighted average number of ordinary shares
outstanding during the financial year.
(b)
Diluted
Diluted earnings per ordinary share for the financial year is calculated by dividing the profit for the financial
year attributable to equity holders of the parent by the weighted average number of ordinary shares
outstanding during the financial year adjusted for the effects of dilutive potential ordinary shares.

6.
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

6.1 Changes in estimates
Estimates are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including
expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
The Directors are of the opinion that there are no changes in estimates at the end of the reporting period.
6.2 Critical judgement made in applying accounting policies
The following is judgement made by management in the process of applying the Groups accounting policies that
have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements.
(a)
Classification of leasehold land

The Group has assessed and classified land use rights of the Group as finance leases based on the extent
to which risks and rewards incidental to ownership of land resides with the Group arising from the lease
term. Consequently, the Group has classified the unamortised upfront payment for land use rights as finance
leases in accordance with MFRS 117.
(b)
Impairment of equity investments categorised as available-for-sale financial assets

The Group believes that a significant or prolonged decline in fair value of an investment in equity instrument
is a decline in fair value of more than twenty (20) percent of the cost, or the decline in fair value below its
original cost has persisted for more than nine (9) to twelve (12) months.
6.3 Key sources of estimation uncertainty

The following are key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the
end of the reporting period that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts
of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.
(a)
Depreciation of property, plant and equipment

The cost of property, plant and equipment is depreciated on a straight line basis over the assets useful lives.
Management estimates the useful lives of these property, plant and equipment in accordance with accounting
policy stated in Note 4.4 to the financial statements. These are common life expectancies applied in this
industry. Changes in the expected level of usage and technological developments could impact the economic
useful lives and the residual values of these assets, and therefore future depreciation charges could be revised.
(b)
Impairment of receivables
The Group makes impairment of receivables based on an assessment of the recoverability of receivables.
Impairment is applied to receivables where events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
amounts may not be recoverable. The management specifically analyses historical bad debt, customer
concentration, customer creditworthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment terms
when making a judgement to evaluate the adequacy of impairment of receivables. Where expectations differ
from the original estimates, the differences will impact the carrying amount of receivables.
69

6.
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

6.3 Key sources of estimation uncertainty (continued)
(c)
Write down for obsolete or slow moving inventories

The Group writes down its obsolete or slow moving inventories based on assessment of their estimated net
selling price. Inventories are written down when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
amounts could not be recoverable. Management specifically analyses sales trend and current economic
trends when making a judgement to evaluate the adequacy of the write down for obsolete or slow moving
inventories. Where expectations differ from the original estimates, the differences will impact the carrying
amount of inventories.
(d)
Deferred tax assets

Deferred tax assets are recognised for all unused tax losses and unabsorbed capital allowances to the
extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which the losses and capital allowances
can be utilised. Significant management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax
assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and level of future taxable profits together with
future tax planning strategies.

The objective of the Groups capital management is to ensure that it maintains healthy ratios in order to support
its business operations and to provide fair returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders.
The Group manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it, in light of changes in economic conditions.
In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may, from time to time, adjust the dividend payout
to shareholders or issue new share, where necessary. No changes were made in the objectives, policies or
processes during the financial year ended 31 December 2012 and financial year ended 31 December 2011.
The Group is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.
The Group monitors capital by reference to its indebtedness position, which is derived from the total financial
debts divided by the total equity. The Groups strategy is to maintain the balance between debt and equity and to
ensure sufficient operating cash flows to repay its liabilities as and when they fall due.
Pursuant to the requirements of Practice Note No. 17/2005 of the Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad, the Group
is required to maintain a consolidated shareholders equity equal to or not less than the 25% of the issued and
paid-up capital (excluding treasury shares) and such shareholders equity is not less than RM40,000,000. The
Group has complied with this requirement for the financial year ended 31 December 2012.

Determination of fair values

Methods and assumptions used to estimate fair values
The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities are determined as follows:
(i)
Financial instruments that are not carried at fair values and whose carrying amounts are a reasonable
approximation of fair values
The carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities, such as trade and other receivables and
trade and other payables, are reasonable approximation of fair values due to their short-term nature.
(ii)
Quoted shares and short term funds

The fair values of quoted investments and short term funds in Malaysia are determined by reference to the
exchange quoted market bid prices at the close of the business at the end of the reporting period.
(iii)
Derivatives
The fair value of a forward foreign exchange contract is the amount that would be payable or receivable
upon termination of the outstanding position arising and is determined by reference to the difference between
the contracted rate and the forward exchange rate as at the end of the reporting period applied to a contract
of similar amount and maturity profile.
98

(d)
Fair value hierarchy

The following table provides an analysis of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition
at fair value, grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value is observable.
Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical
assets or liabilities.
Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1
that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on
observable market data (unobservable inputs).
As at 31 December 2012, the Group and the Company held the following financial instruments carried at fair
values on the statements of financial position:

31. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES

Exposure to credit risk, liquidity and cash flow risk, interest rate risk, foreign currency risk and market price risk, arises
in the normal course of the Groups businesses. The Groups overall financial risk management objective is to minimise
potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the Group.
The Groups overall business strategies, its tolerance of risk and its general risk management philosophy are determined
by the management in accordance with prevailing economic and operating conditions. Financial risk management is
carried out through risk review, internal control systems and adherence to the Groups financial risk management
policies. The Group does not have financial instruments for trading purposes.
100

31. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (continued)
The Groups management policies for managing each of the financial risk are summarised below:
(i)
Credit risk
Cash deposits and trade receivables may give rise to credit risk, which requires the loss to be recognised if a
counter party fails to perform as contracted. Credit risk refers to the risk that counterparty will default on its
contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. The Group has adopted a policy of only dealing
with creditworthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral where appropriate, as a means of mitigating
the risk of financial loss from defaults. The Groups exposure and the creditworthiness of its counterparties are
continuously monitored and the aggregate value of transactions concluded is spread amongst approved
counterparties. Credit exposure is controlled by the counterparty limits that are reviewed and approved by
management annually.
Exposure to credit risk
The Groups primary exposure to credit risk arises through its trade receivables. The carrying amount of financial
assets as recorded in the financial statements, grossed up for any allowances for impairment losses, represents
the Groups maximum exposure to credit risk without taking account of the value of any collateral obtained.
Credit risk concentration profile
At the end of the reporting period, approximately:
-
84.8% (2011: 85.7%) of the Groups trade receivables were owing by 1 major customer and 2 related parties.
78.4% (2011: 63.3%) of the Groups trade and other receivables were owing by related parties while 99.9%
(2011: 99.9%) of the Companys trade and other receivables were amounts owing by subsidiaries.
Financial assets that are neither past due nor impaired

Information regarding trade and other receivables that are neither past due nor impaired is disclosed in Note 13
to the financial statements. Deposits with banks and other financial institutions, investment securities and
derivatives that are neither past due nor impaired are placed with or entered into with financial institutions with
good standing.
Financial assets that are either past due or impaired
Information regarding financial assets that are either past due or impaired is disclosed in Note 13 to the
financial statements.
(ii)
Liquidity and cash flow risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group is unable to service its cash obligations in future. To mitigate this risk, the
management monitors and maintains a level of cash and cash equivalents deemed adequate to finance the
Groups operations and development activities.
101

(ii)
Liquidity and cash flow risk (continued)

(iii)
Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of the Groups and the Companys financial
instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates.
The Groups exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to the interest-earning fixed
deposits placed with licensed banks. The Group does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge its risk.
The following tables set out the carrying amounts, the weighted average effective interest rates as at the end of
the reporting period and the remaining maturities of the Groups financial instruments that are exposed to interest
rate risk:

Sensitivity analysis for interest rate risk

At the end of the reporting period, if interest rate had been 50 basis points higher or lower, with all the variable
held constant, the Groups profit after tax for the financial year would have been approximately RM78,949 (2011
RM104,302) higher or lower. The assumed movement in basis points for the interest rate sensitivity analysis is
based on the currently observable market environment.
(iv) Foreign currency risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate
because of changes in foreign exchange rates.
The Group is subject to foreign exchange fluctuations through the import of raw materials and export of finished
goods. The Group periodically uses foreign currency forward contracts to protect against the volatility associated
with foreign currency transactions for receivables and payables denominated in currencies other than the
functional currency of the operating entities within the Group.
103

(iv) Foreign currency risk (continued)
During the financial year, the Group entered into foreign currency forward contracts to manage exposures to
currency risk for receivables and payables, which are denominated in a currency other than the functional
currencies of the Group.
The notional amount and maturity date of the forward foreign exchange contracts outstanding are as follows:
Contract

Maturities

Sensitivity analysis for foreign currency risk

The following table demonstrates the sensitivity of the Groups profit after tax to a 3% change in the United States
Dollar (USD) and Japanese Yen (YEN) exchange rates against the Ringgit Malaysia (RM) respectively, with
all other variables held constant. 3% is the sensitivity rate used when reporting foreign currency risk exposures
internally to key management personnel and represents managements assessment of the possible change in
foreign exchange rates.
The sensitivity analysis includes only significant outstanding balances denominated in foreign currencies.
If the relevant foreign currency strengthens by 3% against the functional currency of the Group as at the end of
the reporting period, profit after tax for the financial year would (decrease)/increase by the following amounts,
mainly due to exposure as at end of the reporting period on monetary balances denominated in the respective
foreign currencies.

If the relevant foreign currency weakens by 3% against the functional currencies as mentioned, impact on the
profit for the financial year would be vice versa.
104

(v)
Market price risk

Market price risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of the Groups financial instruments will fluctuate
because of changes in market prices (other than interest or exchange rates).
The Group and the Company are exposed to market price risks arising from quoted investments and short term
funds held by the Group and the Company. These quoted equity instruments in Malaysia are listed on Bursa
Malaysia and short term funds are quoted. These instruments are classified as available-for-sale financial assets
and financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss respectively.
Sensitivity analysis for market price risk
At the end of the reporting period, if the market prices of the quoted investments had been 10% higher or lower,
with all other variables held constant, the Groups available-for-sale reserve would have been approximately
RM497,000 (2011: RM504,000) higher or lower, arising as a result of an increase and decrease in the fair values
of equity instruments.
Short term funds of the Group and of the Company are exposed to changes in market quoted prices. However,
the volatility of these funds prices is considered low, and hence, sensitivity analysis for equity price risk is
not presented.
32. EXPLANATION OF TRANSITION TO MFRS

The Group and the Company are non-transitioning entities as defined by the MASB, and has adopted the MFRS
Framework during the financial year ended 31 December 2012. Accordingly, these are the first financial statements of
the Group and of the Company prepared in accordance with MFRSs.
The accounting policies set out in Note 4 to the financial statements have been applied in preparing the financial
statements of the Group and of the Company for the financial year ended 31 December 2012, as well as comparative
information presented in these financial statements for the financial year ended 31 December 2011 and in the
preparation of the opening MFRS statements of financial position at 1 January 2011 (the date of transition of the Group
to MFRSs).
There is no impact arising from the transition from FRSs to MFRSs on the Groups and Companys financial position,
financial performance and cash flows. Thus, the Group and the Company have not adjusted any amount previously
reported in the financial statements that were prepared in accordance with the previous FRS Framework.
