Investment Strategy Review Shortterm markets were relatively unchanged at the beginning of the financial year under review although an uptick in inflation combined with generally strong economic releases prompted talks of overnight policy rate hike towards endnovember 2017. Into 2018, the Pacific Cash Fund benefited from higher reinvestment rates as commercial banks revised their deposit rates following the increase in the overnight policy rate by 25 basis points. Besides higher deposit rates, the Fund benefited from higher tender yields on selected commercial papers from the primary market. Fixed income allocations were managed within 7088% before dipping below 30% towards enddecember as the Fund reinvested its commercial papers maturities into cash deposits in view of the potential overnight policy rate adjustments. Thereafter, the Fund reinvested its cash maturities in shortdated bonds and longertenured commercial paper holdings for yield enhancements. 100 90 92.55% 80 70 60 58.92% 50 40 41.08% 30 20 10 0 Fixed Income Securities 7.45% Cash & Liquid Assets As at 30 September 2018 As at 30 September 2017 The fixed income securities allocation of Pacific Cash Fund decreased to 58.92% as at 30 September 2018 from 92.55% recorded at the beginning of the financial year under review mainly due to shortterm maturities and active cash management strategies. Analysis Of Net Asset Value The net asset value (NAV) per unit of Pacific Cash Fund increased from 0.5213 to 0.5229 during the financial year under review. Meanwhile, total NAV of the Fund decreased from 22,906,113 to 18,653,217 due to fund redemptions. 8

Market Review Bond Market Review Yields were on a general uptrend as interest rates rose on higher growth expectations. Macroeconomic data continued to surprise positively which has led the Federal Reserve (Fed) to move ahead with four rate hikes during the financial year under review despite continued benign inflation. Into 2018, yields rose at a robust pace as strong jobs data gave further fuel to growth and inflation expectations on the back of the US tax reform bill passed in December. The 10year yield touched its psychological 3% threshold on several counts during the year following hawkish policy tones and a stream of positive data before the Turkish headlines and heightened US China trade tensions caused yields to oscillate within 2.802.90% before closing the period at 3.06%. The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) saw a change of helm as Jerome Powell took over as the new Fed chair in early February. Shortterm yields remained under pressure as the new Fed chair stayed on course with its monetary normalization. The Fed funds rate was raised three times under the new chairmanship to a target range of 2.002.25%. The latest summary of economic projections showed the Fed solidifying around a fourth rate increase this year and more supportive of further rate hikes through 2019. During the financial year, the 2year Treasury increased by 135 basis points to 2.82% while the 10year yield rose by 73 basis points to 3.06%. Higher Treasury yields during the financial year represented expectations of higher levels of inflation and stronger economic growth, a view shared by the bond market and the Federal Reserve. The local bond yields closed marginally higher during the financial year on the back of weaker Treasuries and the overnight policy rate hike in January. Yields started to move higher boosted by rate hike expectations following hawkish assessments by Bank Negara on its intention to review the current degree of monetary accommodation. Soon after, the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) delivered a 25 basis points hike in the overnight policy rate to 3.25% in the January meeting, in light of the steady economic growth and in a bid to preempt the buildup of risks as a result of prolonged low interest rates. Thereafter, the local bond market saw a general upward trend across the curve with sentiment largely affected by rising Treasury yields coupled with the postelection selloff. Market players were cautious over the policy direction of the new government and more importantly its implications on the Ringgit and fiscal impact from the implementation of the new government s key election proposals such as abolishment of GST and reintroduction of fuel subsidies. Towards the end of 3Q2018, trade tensions and a strong Dollar continued to dominate headlines. Buying momentum were sustained by the weakerthanexpected second quarter GDP which came in at 4.50% as well as the continued soft headline inflation which rose by 1.30% for the first eight months of the year. Meanwhile, the overnight policy rate was maintained at 3.25% after the first hike in January. Over the financial year, the 3year MGS increased by 22 basis points to 3.61% while the 10year yields increased by a lesser quantum of 15 basis points to 4.07%. 9

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT To the Unitholders of Report On The Audit Of The Financial Statements Opinion We have audited the financial statements of ( the Fund ), which comprise the statement of financial position as at 30 September 2018, and the statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in net asset value and statement of cash flows of the Fund for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, as set out on pages 16 to 36. In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Fund as at 30 September 2018, and of its financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards and International Financial Reporting Standards. Basis For Opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with approved standards of auditing in Malaysia and International Standards on Auditing. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Independence And Other Ethical Responsibilities We are independent of the Fund in accordance with the ByLaws (on Professional Ethics, Conduct and Practice) of the Malaysian Institute of Accountants ( ByLaws ) and the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants ( IESBA Code ), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the ByLaws and the IESBA Code. Information Other Than The Financial Statements And Auditors Report Thereon The Manager of the Fund is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report of the Fund, but does not include the financial statements of the Fund and our auditors report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements of the Fund does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial statements of the Fund, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements of the Fund or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. 13

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Responsibility Of The Manager And Trustee For The Financial Statements The Manager of the Fund is responsible for the preparation of financial statements of the Fund that give a true and fair view in accordance with Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards and International Financial Reporting Standards. The Manager is also responsible for such internal control as the Manager determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements of the Fund that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements of the Fund, the Manager is responsible for assessing the Fund s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Manager either intends to liquidate the Fund or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. The Trustee is responsible for overseeing the Fund s financial reporting process. The Trustee is also responsible for ensuring that the Manager maintains proper accounting and other records as are necessary to enable true and fair presentation of these financial statements. Auditors Responsibilities For The Audit Of The Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements of the Fund as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia and International Standards on Auditing will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with approved standards of 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 financial statements of the Fund, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient 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. 14

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 Fund s internal control. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the Manager. Conclude on the appropriateness of the Manager s 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 significant doubt on the Fund 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 financial statements of the Fund or, if such disclosures 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 Fund to cease to continue as a going concern. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements of the Fund, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements of the Fund represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. We communicate with the Manager regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. Other Matters This report is made solely to the unitholders of the Fund, as a body, in accordance with the Guidelines on Unit Trust Funds issued by Securities Commission 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 30 September 2018 1.

Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies (a) Basis Of Preparation The financial statements of the Fund have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except as otherwise stated in the accounting policies and comply with Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards ( MFRS ), International Financial Reporting Standards ( IFRS ), the Deeds and the Securities Commission Malaysia s Guidelines on Unit Trust Funds in Malaysia. The significant accounting policies adopted are consistent with those applied in the previous financial year end except for the adoption of Amendments to MFRSs which are effective for the financial year beginning on or after 1 January 2017. These Amendments to MFRSs did not give rise to any significant effect on the financial statements. 20

The Fund will adopt the following MFRSs, Amendments to MFRSs and IC Interpretations when they become effective in the respective financial periods and these MFRSs, Amendments to MFRSs and IC Interpretations are not expected to have any material impact to the financial statements of the Fund upon initial application, except for MFRS 9 of which the key area impacted would be as follows: Classification and measurement of financial assets Fixed income securities which are currently classified as availableforsale financial assets and measured at fair value through other comprehensive income will be reclassified under MFRS 9 as at fair value through profit and loss.

(b) Functional And Presentation Currency The financial statements of the Fund are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Fund operates ( the functional currency ). The financial statements are presented in Ringgit Malaysia ( ), which is also the Fund s functional currency. (c) Financial Instruments The Fund recognises financial assets and financial liabilities in the Statement of Financial Position on the date it becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments. Regular way purchase and sales of all categories of investments in financial instruments are recognised on trade dates i.e. dates on which the Fund commits to purchase or sell the financial instruments. The Fund determines the classification of its financial assets and financial liabilities at initial recognition, and the categories include availableforsale financial assets, receivables and financial liabilities. When financial assets are recognised initially, they are measured at fair value, plus, in the case of investments not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction costs. AvailableForSale Financial Assets Availableforsale financial assets are those nonderivative financial assets intended to be held for an indefinite period of time and that may be sold in response to needs for liquidity or changes in interest rates, exchange rates or equity prices or not classified in any of the other preceding categories. After initial recognition, availableforsale financial assets are measured at fair value with gain or loss recognised in other comprehensive income until the financial asset is derecognised or until the financial asset is determined to be impaired at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously reported in other comprehensive income is transferred from availableforsale reserve to profit or loss. The fair values of fixed income securities are determined by reference to prices quoted by a bond pricing agency (BPA) registered with the Securities Commission Malaysia on a daily basis. 23

Receivables Receivables are nonderivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. These include cash and cash equivalents, amounts due from Manager and other receivables. Receivables are recognised initially at fair value including transaction costs. These are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less impairment. Financial Liabilities Financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value i.e. the consideration for goods and services received and subsequently stated at amortised cost. These include amounts due to Manager, Trustee and other payables. The difference between the proceeds and the amount payable is recognised over the period of the payable using the effective interest method. (d) Derecognition Of Financial Assets And Liabilities Financial Assets A financial asset is derecognised when the asset is disposed and the contractual right to receive cash flows from the asset has expired. On derecognition of a financial asset, the difference between the carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received is recognised in profit or loss. Financial Liabilities A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is extinguished. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the liability is derecognised, and through the amortisation process. (e) Impairment Of Financial Assets The Fund assesses at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. AvailableForSale Financial Assets If an availableforsale financial 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 profit or loss, is transferred from the availableforsale reserve to profit or loss. 24

Financial Assets Carried At Amortised Cost If a financial asset carried at amortised cost is impaired, an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss as the difference between the asset s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flow discounted at the financial asset's original effective interest rate. If in a subsequent period the amount of an impairment loss recognised on a financial asset carried at amortised cost decreases and the decrease can be linked objectively to an event occurring after the writedown, the writedown is reversed through profit or loss. (f) Income Recognition Income is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Fund and the income can be reliably measured. Income is measured at the fair value of consideration received or receivable. Interest income, accretion of discount and amortisation of premium are recognised using the effective interest method on an accrual basis. (g) Unrealised Reserves/(Deficits) The unrealised reserves/(deficits) represent the net gain or loss arising from fixed income securities at their fair value and are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. (h) Cash And Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at banks and deposits with financial institutions which have an insignificant risk of changes in value. (i) Taxation Current tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the tax authorities. The tax rate and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. (j) Distribution Distributions made by the Fund are accounted for as a deduction from realised reserves except where distributions are sourced out of distribution equalisation which are accounted for as a deduction from Unitholders Capital. Distributions are recognised in the Statement of Changes in Net Asset Value when they are approved by the Manager and the Trustee. 25

(k) 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. (l) Unitholders Capital Unitholders Capital meets the conditions for the definition of puttable instruments classified as equity instruments. Distribution equalisation is accounted for on the date of creation and cancellation of units. It represents the average distributable amount included in the creation and cancellation prices of units. This amount is either refunded to unitholders by way of distribution and/or adjusted accordingly when units are cancelled. (m) Significant Accounting Estimates And Judgments The preparation of financial statements in accordance with MFRS and IFRS requires the use of certain accounting estimates and exercise of judgments. Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on past experience, reasonable expectations of future events and other factors. No major estimates or judgments have been made by the Manager in applying the Fund s accounting policies. There are no key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities at the reporting date. 3.

4. Fair Value Hierarchy The Fund uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair values of financial instruments by valuation techniques: Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices). Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). 2018 AvailableForSale Financial Assets Fixed income securities Level 1 Level 2 10,991,311 Total 10,991,311 2017 AvailableForSale Financial Assets Fixed income securities 21,199,536 21,199,536 The carrying amounts of other financial assets and financial liabilities, approximate fair values due to the relatively short term maturities of these financial instruments. 28

Amount Due From/To Manager The amount due from Manager represents amount receivable for units created while amount due to Manager represents amount payable for units cancelled and/or amount payable for management fee. Management fee is payable on a monthly basis and amount receivable/payable for units created/ cancelled is received/paid within 10 days of the transaction dates. 7. Manager s Fee The Manager s fee provided in the financial statements is computed at 0.3% (2017: 0.3%) per annum of the net asset value attributable to unitholders of the Fund, calculated on a daily basis as agreed by the Trustee and the Manager. 29

8. Trustee s Fee The Trustee s fee provided in the financial statements is computed at 0.02% (2017: 0.05%) per annum of the net asset value attributable to unitholders of the Fund, calculated on a daily basis. Effective from 1 March 2017, the Trustee s fee was lowered to 0.02% per annum. 9. Portfolio Turnover Ratio Portfolio turnover ratio ( PTR ) 2018 1.64 times 2017 3.47 times The PTR of the Fund is the ratio of average acquisitions and disposals of the Fund for the financial year over the average net asset value attributable to unitholders of the Fund calculated on a daily basis. The PTR for the current financial year is lower due to decrease in investing activities. 10. Management Expense Ratio Management expense ratio ( MER ) 2018 0.44% 2017 0.42% MER is the ratio of expenses of the Fund expressed as a percentage of the average net asset value attributable to unitholders of the Fund for the financial year calculated on a daily basis. The MER for the current financial year is higher due to a lower percentage of decrease in expenses compared with average net asset value attributable to unitholders of the Fund. 11. Taxation 2018 2017 Malaysian income tax: Current year s provision Income tax is calculated at the Malaysian statutory rate of taxation of 24% (2017: 24%) of the estimated assessable income for the financial year. There was no taxation charge for the current financial year due to tax exempt income received. 30

A reconciliation of income tax expense applicable to net income before taxation at the statutory rate of taxation to income tax expense at the effective rate of taxation is as follows: Net income before taxation 2018 756,198 2017 990,745 Taxation at Malaysian statutory rate of 24% Tax effects of: Income not subject to tax Losses not subject to tax Expenses not deductible for tax purpose Restriction on tax deductible expenses for unit trust funds Tax expense for the financial year 181,488 (205,497) 4,461 19,548 237,779 (309,796) 43,218 6,362 22,437 12.

Financial Risk Management Objectives And Policies The Fund is exposed to a variety of risks which include market risk, credit risk, liquidity risk, specific risk and single issuer risk. Financial risk management is carried out through policy reviews, internal control systems and adherence to the investment restrictions as stipulated in the Securities Commission Malaysia s Guidelines on Unit Trust Funds in Malaysia. (i) Market Risk The Fund s principal exposure to market risk arises primarily due to changes in the market environment, global economic and geopolitical developments. The Fund seeks to diversify some of these risks by investing into different sectors to mitigate risk exposure to any single asset class. 33

The Fund s market risk is affected primarily by the following risks: (a) Interest Rate Risk This risk refers to the effect of interest rate changes on the market value of fixed income securities and returns on deposits with financial institutions. In the event of reduction in interest rates, the return on deposits with financial institutions will decrease while prices of fixed income securities will increase and vice versa, thus affecting the net asset value of the Fund. This risk will be minimised via the management of the duration structure of the portfolio of fixed income securities and deposits with financial institutions. The Fund s exposure to interest rate risk with respect to fixed income securities is not considered to be significant at the reporting date and consequently no sensitivity analysis on interest rate risk has been presented. (ii) Credit Risk The Fund s principal exposure to credit risk arises primarily due to changes in the financial conditions of an issuer or a counterparty to make payment of principals, interest and proceeds from realisation of investments. Such events can lead to loss of capital or delayed or reduced profit for the Fund resulting in a reduction in the Fund s net asset value and thus, unit price. This risk is mitigated by setting counterparty limits and vigorous credit analyses. Credit risk generally arises from investments, cash and cash equivalents and other receivables. The maximum exposure to credit risk is presented in the Statement of Financial Position. None of these balances are impaired.

Should the Fund need to sell a relatively large amount of such securities, the act itself may significantly depress the selling price. The risk is minimised by maintaining a prudent level of liquid assets that allows the Fund to meet daily redemption of units without jeopardising potential returns. The maturity of the Fund s financial liabilities fall due within three months while the net asset value attributable to unitholders are repayable on demand. (iv) Specific Risk The Fund is exposed to the individual risks of the respective companies issuing securities which includes changes to the business performance of the company, consumer tastes and demands, lawsuits and management practices. This risk is minimised through the diversification of the portfolio of investments of the Fund. 35
