The decrease in net profit was contributed from : 1. The decrease in net profit of the company only for Baht million in the first quarter of year 2007 as compared to the same quarter last year was partly contributed from the decrease of various types of income i.e. net interest and dividend income, bad debt recovery and profit from disposal of investment in securities obtained from debt restructuring for a total decreased amount of Bath million, decreased from Baht million in the first quarter of 2006 to Baht million in the same period this year.

3 BANGKOK FIRST INVESTMENT & TRUST PUBLIC COMPANY LIMITED AND ITS SUBSIDIARY REVIEW REPORT AND INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 31 MARCH 2007

4 Review report of Independent Auditor To the Shareholders of Bangkok First Investment & Trust Public Company Limited I have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Bangkok First Investment & Trust Public Company Limited and its subsidiary company as at 31 March 2007, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders equity, and cash flows for the three-month periods ended 31 March 2007 and 2006; and the separate financial statements of Bangkok First Investment & Trust Public Company Limited for the same periods. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company s management as to their correctness and the completeness of the presentation. My responsibility is to issue a report on these financial statements based on my reviews. I conducted my reviews in accordance with the auditing standard applicable to review engagements. This standard requires that I plan and perform the review to obtain moderate assurance as to whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. A review is limited primarily to inquiries of company personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial data and thus provides less assurance than an audit. I have not performed an audit and, accordingly, I do not express an audit opinion. Based on my reviews, nothing has come to my attention that causes me to believe that the accompanying financial statements are not presented fairly, in all material respects, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Without qualifying on the financial statements referred to above, I draw attention to the matters discussed under the Notes to the financial statements presented as follows: - (a) As discussed in Note 4 to the financial statements regarding the impact of the Financial Sector Master Plan on the Company. (b) As discussed in Note 5 to the financial statements, during the year 2006, the Company received a letter from TAMC informing it that TAMC will terminate the transfer of Baht 153 million the non-performing loans secured by leasehold rights which are not qualified for transfer, with TAMC to adjust the value of its promissory note by the same amount. The Company s management has written to TAMC confirming its rights over such collateral as at the transfer date and confirming that the original transfer value is correct. As the date of this report, the dispute has still not been finalised.

5 (c) As discussed in Note 9.3 to the financial statements regarding the allowance for doubtful accounts, in December 2006, the Bank of Thailand modified its guidelines on the determination of provisions for non-performing loans which will become effective in three phases in 2006 and The Company already set up provisions against those receivables which fall under the criteria requiring provision to be recorded in The Company still in the process of estimating additional provisions would be required for 2007 in accordance with those guidelines. I have previously audited the consolidated financial statements of Bangkok First Investment & Trust Public Company Limited and its subsidiary company and the separate financial statements of Bangkok First Investment & Trust Public Company Limited for the year ended 31 December 2006, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements under my report dated 20 February 2007 with draw attention the impact of financial master plan on the company, TAMC s notifications for a partly termination of the transfer of the nonperforming loans and a record of allowance for doubtful accounts according to the new Bank of Thailand s guidelines. The consolidated and separate balance sheets as at 31 December 2006, as presented herein for comparative purposes, formed an integral part of the financial statements which I audited and reported on. The Company has restated the separate financial statements to reflect the change in accounting policy for recording investments in subsidiary from the equity method to the cost method as described in Note 3 to the financial statements. In my opinion, the adjustments made for the preparation of such financial statements are appropriate and have been properly applied. I have not performed any other audit procedures subsequent to the date of that report. Ernst & Young Office Limited Bangkok: 11 May 2007 Ratana Jala Certified Public Accountant (Thailand) No. 3734

On 20 April 2005, the Company received a letter from the Bank of Thailand informing that its application to set up a commercial bank in accordance with the Financial Sector Master Plan had been rejected by the Ministry of Finance. As a result of these developments, the terms of the merger proposal approved by the shareholders of both institutions are no longer valid. The Bank of Thailand has assured the Company that its status will continue as a finance business in accordance with the revised Act on the Undertaking of Finance Business, Securities Business & Credit Foncier Business, B.E. 2522, and that domestic customers of the Company holding deposits, certificates of deposits or promissory note issued by the Company will continue to be guaranteed principal and interest repayments in accordance with regulations of the Financial Institutions Development Fund.

The management of the Company expects the rejection of the application to set up a commercial bank have no impact on its finance business

14 5. THE EMERGENCY DECREE ESTABLISHING THAI ASSET MANAGEMENT CORPORATION In June 2001, the Government issued an Emergency Decree establishing Thai Asset Management Corporation (TAMC). Under this Emergency Decree, financial institutions may choose whether to join the scheme and transfer those of their non-performing assets which meet the stipulated conditions to TAMC, within the specified timeframe. The assets are to be transferred at a price equal to the value of the collateral or a price stipulated by the Board of TAMC and any future profits and responsibility for losses from the non-performing assets are to be shared. The Company s management agreed to join the scheme, and in October and November 2001 the Company transferred a total of 4 non-performing loans, with book values amounting to Baht 40.7 million and Baht million, respectively, to the TAMC, in accordance with the prices stipulated by the Board of TAMC. The Company received promissory notes and did not suffer any loss as a result of the transfer of these loans. In March 2005, the Company adjusted the principal balance of the promissory note downward by Baht 0.7 million because the valuation of the non-performing loans transferred to TAMC had been higher than appropriate. The Company and TAMC will together share future profits and losses arising from TAMC s management of the non-performing assets. If losses are incurred on the transferred nonperforming assets under TAMC s management, the Company s maximum liabilities for such loss is limited to the equivalent of not more than 30% of the price at which the non-performing assets were transferred to TAMC, or approximately Baht 96.5 million. As at 31 March 2007, the Company had already set up allowance for possible loss amounting to Baht 96.5 million (31 December 2006: Baht 96.5 million). During the year 2006, the Company received a letter from TAMC informing it that TAMC would terminate the transfer of Baht 153 million of non-performing loans secured by leasehold rights which are not qualified for transfer, with TAMC to adjust the value of its promissory note by the same amount. The Company s management has written to TAMC confirming its rights over such collateral as at the transfer date and confirming that the original transfer value is correct

15 In addition, on 28 November 2006, the Company also received TAMC s loss sharing report for the end of the first 5 - year period. As at 31 March 2007, the Company s management believes that no significant loss will be incurred in addition to the provision already made by the Company. During the three-month period ended 31 March 2007, there is no additional payment for a partial redemption of the promissory note made by TAMC. The balance of promissory notes as at 31 March 2007 is Baht million (31 December 2006: Baht million). 6.
