Statement on Risk Management and Internal Control INTRODUCTION The Board of MB World Group Berhad ( MB WORLD GROUP ) acknowledges its responsibilities for maintaining an effective system of risk management and internal controls so that there is reasonable assurance that adverse impact arising from a foreseeable future event is mitigated or managed. The system of risk management and internal controls are designed to manage rather than to eliminate the risks which may impede the achievement of an entity s business objectives and strategies. Due to the inherent limitations of internal controls, the system can only provide reasonable but not absolute assurance against any material loss. Pursuant to Paragraph 15.26(b) of the Main Market Listing Requirements ( Listing Requirements ) of the Bursa Securities Malaysia Berhad ( Bursa Securities ), the Board is pleased to provide the following statement on the state of internal control of MB World Group and its subsidiaries ( the Group ). RISK MANAGEMENT Since the financial year ended 2015 ( FY2015 ), the Group has been rapidly expanding its property development business such that property development has become the Group s core business during the financial year ended 2017 ( FY2017 ). During the year, the Board has yet to formally establish the Risk Management Committee and hence the task of overseeing of the risk management and internal control systems has been delegated to the Audit Committee ( AC ). Due to the rapid expansion into property development business, in the FY2017, the Group developed a Risk Scorecard with an emphasis on property development activities in order to enhance the Board s and AC s assessment and management of the significant risks in the property development business. The building of this Risk Scorecard was facilitated by our Outsourced Internal Audit service provider, Forreststone Corporate Advisory Sdn. Bhd. ( FCA ). Pursuant to the building of the above risk scorecard, internal audits were conducted in respect of the controls relating to project management and procurement cycles which were assessed to be of high priority areas by the AC and corrective actions were formulated for the identified shortcomings. The Board acknowledges that the Group has yet to complete the development of a formal enterprise wide risk management ( ERM ) framework which is based on an internationally recognised framework. The Board, in February 2018, resolved that the Group s risk management and internal control systems is to be overseen by the AC which has been renamed to the Audit Risk Management Committee ( ARMC ). By the end of 2018, the Board expects the ARMC to complete the development of an ERM framework which will be based on internationally recognised standards. KEY ELEMENTS OF INTERNAL CONTROL The principal features of the Group s system of internal controls are as follows: Organisational structure with defined roles and responsibilities The Group has in place an operating structure and organisation chart with defined lines of responsibility and adequate segregation. 33

Statement on Risk Management and Internal Control Annual Budgets Annual budgeting process is in place and performance is monitored on an on-going basis. The variances of actual performance against the budget are monitored and presented to the ARMC on a regular basis. Reporting and Review The Board and the ARMC meet at least quarterly and have a schedule of matters which are required to be brought up for their review, namely : (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) Interim quarterly financial reports; Related Party Transactions; Corporate Governance related matters; and Internal and external audit related matters. Documented Policies and Procedures The Group has clearly established internal policies and procedures which are documented in a series of manuals which cover most of the Group s major operations. Internal Audit The Group outsources its internal audit function to FCA, a professional firm which provides risk management and internal audit outsourcing services to provide independent assessment on the adequacy and effectiveness of the Group s system of internal controls. The internal audit plan is approved by the AC on an annual basis. The internal audit function also checks compliance with policies and procedures established by the Group, advises Management on areas for improvement and performs followup reviews to determine the extent to which the agreed upon action plans have been implemented. During the year, the internal audit activities were focused on the Group s project management and procurement cycles in the Group s property development business and the findings of audit were reported to AC for review. The AC and the Board view such findings seriously and have been or are currently taking measures to address them. Mr Lew Sze How who is a Member of the Institute of Internal Auditors Malaysia heads the internal audit function which consists of 3 persons. The engagement personnel employed by FCA do not have any relationship with the Group s personnel nor do they have any conflicts of interest which could impair their objectivity and/or independence. ADEQUACY AND EFFECTIVENESS OF S RISK MANAGEMENT AND INTERNAL CONTROL Although the Group s has yet to complete the development of its ERM framework during the financial year under review, the Board is satisfied with the adequacy and effectiveness of the Group s system of risk management and internal control. There has been no control weakness or failure which resulted in material losses that would require disclosure in the Group s financial statements for the FY2017. REVIEW OF THE STATEMENT BY EXTERNAL AUDITORS Pursuant to Paragraph 15.23 of the Bursa Securities s Listing Requirements, the external auditors have reviewed this statement for inclusion in the Annual Report of MB World Group for the FY2017. Their review is performed in accordance with Recommended Practice Guide 5 (Revised) Guidance for Auditors on Engagements to Report on the Statement on Risk Management and Internal Control ( RPG 5 ) issued by the Malaysia Institute of Accountants. RPG 5 does not require the reviewer to form an opinion on the adequacy and effectiveness of Group s risk management and internal controls system. The Statement is made in accordance with a resolution of the Directors dated 28 March 2018. 34

Independent Auditors Report to the members of MB World Group Berhad (Incorporated In Malaysia) Company No : 485144-H REPORT ON THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Opinion We have audited the financial statements of MB World Group Berhad, which comprise the statements of financial position as at 31 December 2017 of the Group and of the Company, and the statements of profit or loss and other 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 notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, as set out on pages 46 to 121. In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Group and of the Company as at 31 December 2017, and of their financial performance and their 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 2016 in Malaysia. Basis for Opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with approved standards on 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 Group and of the Company in accordance with the By-Laws (on Professional Ethics, Conduct and Practice) of the Malaysian Institute of Accountants ( By-Laws ) 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 By-Laws and the IESBA Code. Key Audit Matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the Group and of the Company for the current financial year. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements of the Group and of the Company as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report. Reasonableness of revenue recognition arising from contracts with customers Refer to Note 5.23(a) and 22 to the financial statements Key Audit Matter How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter Area of focus The Group s revenue is mainly derived from property development activities. Judgement is required to assess the performance obligations and revenue recognition. Judgements impacting the revenue recognition are as follow:- interpreting of contract terms and conditions; assessing and identifying the performance obligations; and assessing the computation of revenue recognition. To address this risk, our audit procedures involved the following: reviewing the contract terms and identifying performance obligations stipulated in the contracts; evaluating whether the performance obligations are satisfied at point in time or over time; and assessing the revenue recognised is in accordance with MFRS 15 Revenue with Contract Customers. 42

Independent Auditors Report to the members of MB World Group Berhad (Incorporated In Malaysia) Company No : 485144-H REPORT ON THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT D) Key Audit Matters (cont d) Reasonableness of attributable profits arising from property development projects Refer to Note 5.1(g), 11, 22 and 23 to the financial statements Key Audit Matter How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter Area of focus The Group s property development division recognises revenue, cost and profit by reference to the progress towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation at the end of the reporting period. This requires the use of estimates, namely project development revenue and cost. Significant judgement is required in determining the accuracy and completeness of the estimates. Substantial changes to project development revenue and cost estimates in the future can have a significant effect on the Group s results. Information Other than the Financial Statements and Auditors Report Thereon To address this risk, our audit procedures included, amongst others: making inquiries and obtaining an understanding from management on the procedures and controls in relation to the estimation of and revision to the project development revenue and cost; reviewing the reasonableness of the estimated project development revenue by comparing the selling prices of units sold to the estimated selling prices of unsold units; and reviewing the reasonableness of the estimated project development cost by reviewing the contract works awarded, assessing the basis of estimation for contract works not awarded and comparing to the actual costs incurred up to the end of the reporting period. The directors of the Company are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, but does not include the financial statements of the Group and of the Company and our auditors report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements of the Group and of the Company 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 Group and of the Company, 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 Group and of the Company or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. 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. Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Statements The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements of the Group and of the Company that give a true and fair view in accordance with Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards, International Financial Reporting Standards and the requirements of the Companies Act 2016 in Malaysia. The directors are also responsible for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements of the Group and of the Company that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements of the Group and of the Company, the directors are responsible for assessing the Group s and of the Company 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 directors either intend to liquidate the Group or the Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 43

Independent Auditors Report to the members of MB World Group Berhad (Incorporated In Malaysia) Company No : 485144-H REPORT ON THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT D) Auditors Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements of the Group and of the Company 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 on auditing in Malaysia and International Standards on Auditing, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:- Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements of the Group and of the Company, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is 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. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group s and the Company s internal control. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors. Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group s and the Company s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors report to the related disclosures in the financial statements of the Group and of the Company 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 Group or the Company to cease to continue as a going concern. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements of the Group and of the Company, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements of the Group and of the Company represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial statements of the Group. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. We communicate with the directors 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. We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards. 44

Independent Auditors Report to the members of MB World Group Berhad (Incorporated In Malaysia) Company No : 485144-H REPORT ON THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT D) Auditors Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements (cont d) From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the Group and of the Company for the current financial year and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication. REPORT ON OTHER LEGAL AND REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS In accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2016 in Malaysia, we report that the subsidiary of which we have not acted as auditors, is disclosed in Note 8 to the financial statements. OTHER MATTERS This report is made solely to the members of the Company, as a body, in accordance with Section 266 of the Companies Act 2016 in Malaysia and for no other purpose.

1. GENERAL INFORMATION The Company is a public limited company, incorporated and domiciled in Malaysia. The registered office and principal place of business are as follows:- Registered office : Suite 5.11 & 5.12, 5th Floor Menara TJB, No.9, Jalan Syed Mohd Mufti, 80000 Johor Bahru, Malaysia. Principal place of business : Unit 5.01, Level 5, Plaza DNP, No. 59, Jalan Dato Abdullah Tahir, 80250 Johor Bahru, Malaysia. The financial statements were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors in accordance with a resolution of the directors dated 28 March 2018. 2. PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES The Company is principally engaged in the business of investment holding. 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. HOLDING COMPANY The holding company is Kim Feng Capital Sdn. Bhd., a company incorporated in Malaysia. 4. BASIS OF PREPARATION The financial statements of the Group are prepared under the historical cost convention and modified to include other bases of valuation as disclosed in other sections under significant accounting policies, and in compliance with Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards ( MFRSs ), International Financial Reporting Standards and the requirements of the Companies Act 2016 in Malaysia. 4.1 During the current financial year, the Group has adopted the following new accounting standards and/or interpretations (including the consequential amendments, if any):- MFRSs and/or IC Interpretations (Including The Consequential Amendments) Amendments to MFRS 107: Disclosure Initiative Amendments to MFRS 112: Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets for Unrealised Losses Annual Improvements to MFRS Standards 2014 2016 Cycles: Amendments to MFRS 12: Clarification of the Scope of the Standard The adoption of the above accounting standards and/or interpretations (including the consequential amendments, if any) did not have any material impact on the Group s financial statements. 55

4. BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONT D) 4.2 The Group has not applied in advance the following accounting standards and/or interpretations (including the consequential amendments, if any) that have been issued by the Malaysian Accounting Standards Board (MASB) but are not yet effective for the current financial year:- MFRSs and/or IC Interpretations (Including The Consequential Amendments) Effective Date MFRS 9 Financial Instruments (IFRS 9 issued by IASB in July 2014) 1 January 2018 MFRS 16 Leases 1 January 2019 MFRS 17 Insurance Contracts 1 January 2021 IC Interpretation 22 Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration 1 January 2018 IC Interpretation 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments 1 January 2019 Amendments to MFRS 2: Classification and Measurement of Share-based Payment Transactions 1 January 2018 Amendments to MFRS 4: Applying MFRS 9 Financial Instruments with MFRS 4 Insurance Contracts 1 January 2018 Amendments to MFRS 9: Prepayment Features with Negative Compensation 1 January 2019 Amendments to MFRS 10 and MFRS 128: Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture Deferred Amendments to MFRS 119: Plan Amendment, Curtailment or Settlement 1 January 2019 Amendments to MFRS 128: Long-term Interests in Associates and Joint Ventures 1 January 2019 Amendments to MFRS 140 Transfers of Investment Property 1 January 2018 Annual Improvements to MFRS Standards 2014 2016 Cycles: Amendments to MFRS 1: Deletion of Short-term Exemptions for First-time Adopters Amendments to MFRS 128: Measuring an Associate or Joint Venture at Fair Value 1 January 2018 Annual Improvements to MFRS Standards 2015 2017 Cycles 1 January 2019 The adoption of the above mentioned accounting standards and/or interpretations (including the consequential amendments, if any) is not expected to have material impact on the financial statements of the Group upon their initial application except as follows:-. MFRS 9 (IFRS 9 issued by IASB in July 2014) MFRS 9 (IFRS 9 issued by IASB in July 2014) replaces the existing guidance in MFRS 139 and introduces a revised guidance on the classification and measurement of financial instruments, including a single forward-looking expected loss impairment model for calculating impairment on financial assets, and a new approach to hedge accounting. Under this MFRS 9, the classification of financial assets is driven by cash flow characteristics and the business model in which a financial asset is held. Furthermore, pursuant to MFRS 9, it will no longer be necessary for a loss event to occur before an impairment loss is recognised. Instead, the Group is required to recognise and measure a lifetime expected credit loss ( ECL ) on its debt instruments. This application will result in earlier recognition of credit losses. The expected impact from implementation of MFRS 9 and the determination of ECL is expected to be immaterial to the Group as the vast majority of the Group s trade receivables comprise property purchasers who have end financing arrangements with licensed financial institutions. 56

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 5.1 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty Management believes that there are no key assumptions made 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 within the next financial year other than as disclosed below:- (a) Depreciation of Property, Plant and Equipment The estimates for the residual values, useful lives and related depreciation charges for the property, plant and equipment are based on commercial factors which could change significantly as a result of technical innovations and competitors actions in response to the market conditions. The Group anticipates that the residual values of its property, plant and equipment will be insignificant. As a result, residual values are not being taken into consideration for the computation of the depreciable amount. Changes in the expected level of usage and technological development could impact the economic useful lives and the residual values of these assets, therefore future depreciation charges could be revised. The carrying amount of property, plant and equipment as at the reporting date is disclosed in Note 6 to the financial statements. (b) Income Taxes There are certain transactions and computations for which the ultimate tax determination may be different from the initial estimate. The Group recognises tax liabilities based on its understanding of the prevailing tax laws and estimates of whether such taxes will be due in the ordinary course of business. Where the final outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recognised, such difference will impact the income tax expense and deferred tax balances in the year in which such determination is made. The carrying amount of current tax liabilities and assets as at the reporting date is RM7,869,460 and RM13,101 respectively (2016 - RM1,738,884 and RM305,258 respectively). (c) Deferred Tax Assets Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits would be available against which the deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses could be utilised. Management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based on the assessment of the probability of the future taxable profits. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets as at the reporting date is disclosed in Note 20 to the financial statements. (d) Write-down of Inventories Reviews are made periodically by management on damaged, obsolete and slow-moving inventories. These reviews require judgement and estimates. Possible changes in these estimates could result in revisions to the valuation of inventories. The carrying amount of inventories as at the reporting date is disclosed in Note 12 to the financial statements. 57

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT D) 5.1 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS (CONT D) (e) Impairment of Trade Receivables (f) An impairment loss is recognised when there is objective evidence that a financial asset is impaired. Management specifically reviews its trade receivables and analyses their ageing profiles, historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer creditworthiness, current economic trends and changes in the customer payment terms when making a judgement to evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for impairment losses. Where there is objective evidence of impairment, the amount and timing of future cash flows are estimated based on historical loss experience for assets with similar credit risk characteristics. If the expectation is different from the estimation, such difference will impact the carrying value of receivables. The carrying amount of trade receivables as at the reporting date is disclosed in Note 13 to the financial statements. Impairment of Goodwill The assessment of whether goodwill is impaired requires an estimation of the value in use of the cash-generating unit to which the goodwill is allocated. Estimating a value-in-use amount requires management to make an estimate of the expected future cash flows from the cash-generating unit and also to choose a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows. The carrying amount of goodwill as at the reporting date is disclosed in Note 9 to the financial statements. (g) Revenue and Profit Recognition of Property Development Projects Revenue is recognised when or as the control of the asset is transferred to the customers and, depending on the terms of the contract and the applicable laws governing the contract, control of the asset may transfer over time or at a point in time. If control of the asset transfers over time, revenue is recognised based on progress towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation is measured based on a method that best depicts the Group s performance in satisfying the performance obligation of the contract over the period of contract by reference to the following: For landed development projects, the progress is determined by reference to the progress, based on the physical proportion of contract work-to-date certified by professional consultants. For high rise development projects, the progress is determined by reference to the property development costs incurred up to the end of the reporting period as a percentage of total estimated costs for complete satisfaction of the contract. The revenue, cost and hence profit for each project are estimates based on approved budgets which require assessment, judgment and reliance on past experience as well as the work of specialists. 5.2 BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries made up to the end of the reporting period. Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. Potential voting rights are considered when assessing control only when such rights are substantive. The Group also considers it has de facto power over an investee when, despite not having the majority of voting rights, it has the current ability to direct the activities of the investee that significantly affect the investee s return. 58

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT D) 5.2 BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION (CONT D) 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 transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated on consolidation. Intragroup losses may indicate an impairment that requires recognition in the consolidated financial statements. Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to ensure consistency of accounting policies with those of the Group. (a) Business Combinations Acquisitions of businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. Under the acquisition method, the consideration transferred for acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair value of the assets transferred, liabilities incurred and the equity interests issued by the Group at the acquisition date. The consideration transferred includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. Acquisition-related costs, other than the costs to issue debt or equity securities, are recognised in profit or loss when incurred. In a business combination achieved in stages, previously held equity interests in the acquiree are remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date and any corresponding gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss. Non-controlling interests in the acquiree may be initially measured either at fair value or at the non-controlling interests proportionate share of the fair value of the acquiree s identifiable net assets at the date of acquisition. The choice of measurement basis is made on a transaction-by-transaction basis. (b) Non-Controlling Interests Non-controlling interests are presented within equity in the consolidated statement of financial position, separately from the equity attributable to owners of the Company. Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the Company 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. (c) Changes In Ownership Interests In Subsidiaries Without Change of Control All changes in the parent s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interest is adjusted and the fair value of consideration paid or received is recognised directly in equity of the Group. (d) Loss of Control Upon the loss of control of a subsidiary, the Group recognises any gain or loss on disposal in profit or loss which is calculated as the difference between:- (i) (ii) the aggregate of the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of any retained interest in the former subsidiary; and the previous carrying amount of the assets (including goodwill), and liabilities of the former subsidiary and any non-controlling interests. 59

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT D) 5.2 BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION (CONT D) (d) Loss of Control (cont d) Amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to the former subsidiary are accounted for in the same manner as would be required if the relevant assets or liabilities were disposed of (i.e. reclassified to profit or loss or transferred directly to retained profits). 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 or, when applicable, the cost on initial recognition of an investment in an associate or a joint venture. 5.3 GOODWILL Goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses, if any. The carrying value of goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may be impaired. The impairment value of goodwill is recognised immediately in profit or loss. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill is not reversed in a subsequent period. Under the acquisition method, any excess of the sum of the fair value of the consideration transferred in the business combination, the amount of non-controlling interests recognised and the fair value of the Group s previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any), over the net fair value of the acquiree s identifiable assets and liabilities at the date of acquisition is recorded as goodwill. Where the latter amount exceeds the former, after reassessment, the excess represents a bargain purchase gain and is recognised in profit or loss immediately. In respect of equity-accounted associates, the carrying amount of goodwill is included in the carrying amount of the investment and an impairment loss on such an investment is not allocated to any asset, including goodwill that forms part of the carrying amount of the equity-accounted associates. 5.4 CONTRACT ASSETS/CONTRACT LIABILITIES Where property development revenue recognised in the profit or loss exceeds the billings to purchasers, the balance is shown as contract assets under current assets. Where billings to purchasers exceed the property development revenue recognised to the profit or loss, the balances is shown as contract liabilities under current liabilities. 5.5 FUNCTIONAL AND FOREIGN CURRENCIES (a) Functional and Presentation Currency The individual financial statements of each entity in the Group are presented in the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates, which is the functional currency. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Ringgit Malaysia ( RM ), which is the Company s functional and presentation currency. 60

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT D) 5.5 FUNCTIONAL AND FOREIGN CURRENCIES (CONT D) (b) Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances Transactions in foreign currencies are converted into the respective functional currencies on initial recognition, using the exchange rates at the transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities at the end of the reporting period are translated at the exchange rates ruling as of that date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated using exchange rates that existed when the values were determined. All exchange differences are recognised in profit or loss. (c) Foreign Operations Assets and liabilities of foreign operations (including any goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on acquisition) are translated to the Group s presentation currency at the exchange rates at the end of the reporting period. Income, expenses and other comprehensive income of foreign operations are translated at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. All exchange differences arising from translation are taken directly to other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity; attributed to the owners of the Company and non-controlling interests, as appropriate. Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising from the acquisition of foreign operations are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operations and are recorded in the functional currency of the foreign operations and translated at the closing rate at the end of the reporting period. On the disposal of a foreign operation (i.e. a disposal of the Group s entire interest in a foreign subsidiary, or a partial disposal involving loss of control over a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation, or a partial disposal of an interest in an associate that includes a foreign operation of which the retained interest becomes a financial asset), all of the exchange differences accumulated in equity in respect of that foreign operation attributable to the owners of the Company are reclassified to profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on disposal. The portion that related to noncontrolling interests is derecognised but is not reclassified to profit or loss. In addition, in relation to a partial disposal of a subsidiary that does not result in the Group losing control over the subsidiary, the proportionate share of accumulated exchange differences are reattributed to non-controlling interests and are not recognised in profit or loss. When the Group disposes of only part of its investment in an associate that includes a foreign operation while retaining significant influence, the proportionate share of the accumulative exchange differences is reclassified to profit or loss. In the consolidated financial statements, when settlement of an intragroup loan is neither planned nor likely to occur in the foreseeable future, the exchange differences arising from translating such monetary item are considered to form part of a net investment in the foreign operation and are recognised in other comprehensive income. 5.6 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised in the statements of financial position when the Group has become a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments. Financial instruments are classified as financial assets, financial liabilities or equity instruments in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement and their definitions in MFRS 132. Interest, dividends, gains and losses relating to a financial instrument classified as a liability are reported as an expense or income. Distributions to holders of financial instruments classified as equity are charged directly to equity. Financial instruments are offset when the Group has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends to settle either on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. 61

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT D) 5.6 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONT D) A financial instrument is recognised initially at its fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial instrument (other than a financial instrument at fair value through profit or loss) are added to/ deducted from the fair value on initial recognition, as appropriate. Transaction costs on the financial instrument at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in profit or loss. Financial instruments recognised in the statements of financial position are disclosed in the individual policy statement associated with each item. (a) Financial Assets On initial recognition, financial assets are classified as either financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, heldto-maturity investments, loans and receivables financial assets, or available-for-sale financial assets, as appropriate. (i) Financial Assets at Fair Value through Profit or Loss Financial assets are classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss when the financial asset is either held for trading or is designated to eliminate or significantly reduce a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would otherwise arise. Derivatives are also classified as held for trading unless they are designated as hedges. Fair value through profit or loss category also comprises contingent consideration in a business combination. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on remeasurement recognised in profit or loss. Dividend income from this category of financial assets is recognised in profit or loss when the Group s right to receive payment is established. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss could be presented as current assets or non-current assets. Financial assets that are held primarily for trading purposes are presented as current assets whereas financial assets that are not held primarily for trading purposes are presented as current assets or non-current assets based on the settlement date. (ii) Held-to-maturity Investments Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities that the management has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. Held-to-maturity investments are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method less any impairment loss, with interest income recognised in profit or loss on an effective yield basis. Held-to-maturity investments are classified as non-current assets, except for those having maturity within 12 months after the reporting date which are classified as current assets. (iii) Loans and Receivables Financial Assets Trade receivables and other receivables that have fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market are classified as loans and receivables financial assets. Loans and receivables financial assets are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment loss. Interest income is recognised by applying the effective interest rate, except for short-term receivables when the recognition of interest would be immaterial. 62

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT D) 5.6 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONT D) (a) Financial Assets (cont d) (iii) Loans and Receivables Financial Assets (cont d) The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and of allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that discounts estimated future cash receipts (including all fees and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial asset, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition. Loans and receivables financial assets are classified as current assets, except for those having settlement dates later than 12 months after the reporting date which are classified as non-current assets. (iv) Available-for-sale Financial Assets Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are designated in this category or are not classified in any of the other categories. After initial recognition, available-for-sale financial assets are remeasured to their fair values at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the fair value reserve, with the exception of impairment losses. On derecognition, the cumulative gain or loss previously accumulated in the fair value reserve is reclassified from equity into profit or loss. Dividends on available-for-sale equity instruments are recognised in profit or loss when the Group s right to receive payments is established. Investments in equity instruments whose fair value cannot be reliably measured are measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses, if any. Available-for-sale financial assets are classified as non-current assets unless they are expected to be realised within 12 months after the reporting date. (b) Financial Liabilities (i) Financial Liabilities at Fair Value through Profit or Loss Fair value through profit or loss category comprises financial liabilities that are either held for trading or are designated to eliminate or significantly reduce a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would otherwise arise. Derivatives are also classified as held for trading unless they are designated as hedges. (ii) Other Financial Liabilities Other financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value plus directly attributable transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments through the expected life of the financial liability, or, where appropriate, a shorter period. Financial liabilities are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date. 63

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT D) 5.6 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONT D) (c) Equity Instruments Equity instruments classified as equity are measured initially at cost and are not remeasured subsequently. Ordinary Shares (d) (e) Ordinary shares are classified as equity and recorded at the proceeds received, net of directly attributable transaction costs. Dividends on ordinary shares are recognised as liabilities when approved for appropriation. Derecognition A financial asset or part of it is derecognised when, and only when, the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or the financial asset is transferred to another party without retaining control or substantially all risks and rewards of the asset. On derecognition of a financial asset, the difference between the carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received (including any new asset obtained less any new liability assumed) and any cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in equity is recognised in profit or loss. A financial liability or a part of it is derecognised when, and only when, the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires. On derecognition of a financial liability, the difference between the carrying amount of the 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. Financial Guarantee Contracts A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer to make specific payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specific debtor fails to make payment when due in accordance with the original or modified terms of a debt instrument. The Group and the Company designates performance bond granted in favour of third parties for contract work undertaken by the Group and corporate guarantees given to financial institutions for credit facilities granted to subsidiaries as insurance contracts as defined in MFRS 4 Insurance Contracts. The Group and the Company recognises these performance bonds and corporate guarantees as liabilities 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 will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. 5.7 INVESTMENTS IN SUBSIDIARIES Investments in subsidiaries are stated at cost in the statement of financial position of the Company, and are reviewed for impairment at the end of the reporting period if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying values may not be recoverable. The cost of the investments includes transaction costs. On the disposal of the investments in subsidiaries, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the investments is recognised in profit or loss. 64

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT D) 5.8 PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT All items of property, plant and equipment are initially measured at cost. Cost includes expenditure that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset and other costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to working condition for its intended use. Subsequent to initial recognition, all property, plant and equipment, other than freehold land are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses. Subsequent costs are included in the asset s 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 will 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. Freehold land is not depreciated. Depreciation on other property, plant and equipment is charged to profit or loss (unless it is included in the carrying amount of another asset) on the straight-line method to write off the depreciable amount of the assets over their estimated useful lives. Depreciation of an asset does not cease when the asset becomes idle or is retired from active use unless the asset is fully depreciated. The principal annual rates used for this purpose are:- Buildings 2% Plant and machinery 4% - 12% Motor vehicles 20% Furniture and equipment 8% - 40% Renovation 10% Capital work-in-progress included in property, plant and equipment are not depreciated as these assets are not yet available for use. The depreciation method, useful lives and residual values are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period to ensure that the amounts, method and periods of depreciation are consistent with previous estimates and the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits embodied in the items of the property, plant and equipment. Any changes are accounted for as a change in estimate. When significant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment. An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use. Any gain or loss arising from derecognition of the asset, being the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount, is recognised in profit or loss. 5.9 IMPAIRMENT (a) Impairment of Financial Assets All financial assets and contract assets (other than those categorised at fair value through profit or loss), are assessed at the end of each reporting period whether there is any objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events having an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the asset. For an equity instrument, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value below its cost is considered to be an objective evidence of impairment. 65

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT D) 5.9 IMPAIRMENT (CONT D) (a) Impairment of Financial Assets (cont d) An impairment loss in respect of held-to-maturity investments and loans and receivables financial assets is recognised in profit or loss and is measured as the difference between the asset s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the financial asset s original effective interest rate. An impairment loss in respect of available-for-sale financial assets is recognised in profit or loss and is measured as the difference between its cost (net of any principal payment and amortisation) and its current fair value, less any impairment loss previously recognised in the fair value reserve. In addition, the cumulative loss recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity under fair value reserve, is reclassified from equity into profit or loss. With the exception of available-for-sale debt instruments, if, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the financial asset at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortised cost would have been had the impairment not been recognised. In respect of available-for-sale equity instruments, impairment losses previously recognised in profit or loss are not reversed through profit or loss. Any increase in fair value subsequent to an impairment loss made is recognised in other comprehensive income. An impairment loss in respect of unquoted equity instrument that is carried at cost is recognised in profit or loss and is measured as the difference between the financial asset s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar financial asset. Such impairment losses are not reversed in subsequent periods. (b) Impairment of Non-Financial Assets The carrying values of assets, other than those to which MFRS 136 - Impairment of Assets does not apply, are reviewed at the end of each reporting period for impairment when there is an indication that the assets might be impaired. Impairment is measured by comparing the carrying values of the assets with their recoverable amounts. When the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is written down to its recoverable amount and an impairment loss shall be recognised. The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of the asset s fair value less costs to sell and its value-in-use, which is measured by reference to discounted future cash flows using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. An impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately unless the asset is carried at its revalued amount. Any impairment loss of a revalued asset is treated as a revaluation decrease to the extent of a previously recognised revaluation surplus for the same asset. Any impairment loss recognised in respect of a cash-generating unit is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the cash-generating unit and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the cash-generating unit on a pro rata basis. 66 In respect of assets other than goodwill, and when there is a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount, a subsequent increase in the recoverable amount of an asset is treated as a reversal of the previous impairment loss and is recognised to the extent of the carrying amount of the asset that would have been determined (net of amortisation and depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognised. The reversal is recognised in profit or loss immediately, unless the asset is carried at its revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT D) 5.10 LEASED ASSETS Finance Assets A lease is recognised as a finance lease if it transfers substantially to the Group all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership. Upon initial recognition, the leased asset is measured at an amount equal to the lower of its fair value and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Subsequent to initial recognition, the asset is accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy applicable to that asset. The corresponding liability is included in the statement of financial position as hire purchase payables. Minimum lease payments made under finance leases are apportioned between the finance costs and the reduction of the outstanding liability. The finance costs, which represent the difference between the total leasing commitments and the fair value of the assets acquired, are recognised in the profit or loss and allocated over the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each accounting period. 5.11 INVENTORIES Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. (a) Operating supplies Cost is determined on the first-in-first-out basis and comprises the purchase price and incidentals incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. (b) Unsold properties The cost of unsold properties is stated at the lower of historical cost and net realisable value. Historical cost includes, where relevant, cost associated with the acquisition of land, including all related costs incurred subsequent to the acquisition necessary to prepare the land for its intended case, related development costs to projects, direct building costs and other costs of bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less applicable variable selling expenses. 5.12 DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS A discontinued operation is a component of the Group s business that represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations that has been disposed of or is held for sale, or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale. Classification as a discontinued operation occurs upon disposal or when the operation meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale, if earlier. When an operation is classified as a discontinued operation, the comparative statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income is restated as if the operation had been discontinued from the start of the comparative period. 67

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT D) 5.13 CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash in hand, bank balances, and demand deposits that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value with original maturity periods of three months or less. For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents are presented net of bank overdrafts. 5.14 PROVISIONS Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of past events, when it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and when a reliable estimate of the amount can be made. Provisions are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is the present value of the estimated expenditure required to settle the obligation. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as interest expense in profit or loss. 5.15 EMPLOYEE BENEFITS (a) Short-term Benefits Wages, salaries, paid annual leave and bonuses are measured on an undiscounted basis and are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which the associated services are rendered by employees of the Group. (b) Defined Contribution Plans The Group s contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised in profit or loss in the period to which they relate. Once the contributions have been paid, the Group has no further liability in respect of the defined contribution plans. 5.16 INCOME TAXES (a) Current tax Current tax assets and liabilities are expected amount of income tax recoverable or payable to the taxation authorities. Current taxes are measured using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period and are recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that the tax relates to items recognised outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity). (b) Deferred tax Deferred tax are recognised using the liability method for all temporary differences other than those that arise from goodwill or from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction which is not a business combination and at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. 68

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT D) 5.16 INCOME TAXES (CONT D) (b) Deferred tax (cont d) Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and unused tax credits 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 amounts of deferred tax assets are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefits will be realised. Current and deferred tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transactions either in profit or loss, other comprehensive income or directly in equity. Deferred tax arising from a business combination is adjusted against goodwill or negative goodwill. Current tax assets and liabilities or 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 taxes relate to the same taxable entity (or on different tax entities but they intend to settle current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis) and the same taxation authority. (c) Goods and Services Tax ( GST ) Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of GST except for the GST in a purchase of assets or services which are not recoverable from the taxation authorities, the GST are included as part of the costs of the assets acquired or as part of the expense item whichever is applicable. In addition, receivables and payables are also stated with the amount of GST included (where applicable). The net amount of the GST recoverable from or payable to the taxation authorities at the end of the reporting period is included in other receivables or other payables. 5.17 CONTINGENT LIABILITIES A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events and whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Group. It can also be a present obligation arising from past events that is not recognised because it is not probable that an outflow of economic resources will be required or the amount of obligation cannot be measured reliably. A contingent liability is not recognised but is disclosed in the notes to the financial statements, unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote. When a change in the probability of an outflow occurs so that the outflow is probable, it will then be recognised as a provision. 69

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT D) 5.18 LAND HELD FOR PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT AND PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT COSTS (a) Land held for property development Land held for property development consists of land and land development rights where no development activities have been carried out or where development activities are not expected to be completed within the normal operating cycle. Such land is classified within non-current assets and is stated at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. The policy for the recognition and measurement of impairment losses is in accordance with Note 5.9. Land held for property development is reclassified as property development costs at the point when development activities have commenced and where it can be demonstrated that the development activities can be completed within the normal operating cycle. (b) Property development costs Property development costs is determined based on a specific identification basis. Property development costs comprising costs of land, direct materials, direct labour, other direct costs, attributable overheads and payments to subcontractors that meet the definition of inventories are recognised as an asset and are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and applicable selling expenses. The asset is subsequently recognised as an expense in profit or loss when or as the control of the asset is transferred to the customer over time or at a point in time. Incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer are recognised as assets if the entity expects to recover those costs. The incremental costs of obtaining a contract are those costs that an entity incurs to obtain a contract with a customer that it would not have incurred if the contract had not been obtained. Costs to obtain a contract that would have been incurred regardless of whether the contract was obtained shall be recognised as an expense when incurred, unless those costs are explicitly chargeable to the customer regardless of whether the contract is obtained. 5.19 OPERATING SEGMENTS An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the Group s other components. An operating segment s operating results are reviewed regularly by the directors to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available. 5.20 EARNINGS PER ORDINARY SHARE Basic earnings per ordinary share is calculated by dividing the consolidated profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the reporting period, adjusted for own shares held. Diluted earnings per ordinary share is determined by adjusting the consolidated profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding, adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, which comprise of share options granted to employees. 70

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT D) 5.21 BORROWING COSTS Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalised as part of the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are ready for their intended use or sale. The capitalisation of borrowing costs is suspended during extended periods in which active development is interrupted. All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss as expenses in the period in which they are incurred. Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowing pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation. 5.22 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS 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, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using a valuation technique. The measurement assumes that the transaction takes place either in the principal market or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market. For non-financial asset, the fair value measurement takes into account a market participant s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use. For financial reporting purposes, the fair value measurements are analysed into level 1 to level 3 as follows:- Level 1 : Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liability that the entity can access at the measurement date; Level 2 : Inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and Level 3 : Inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The transfer of fair value between levels is determined as of the date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer. 5.23 REVENUE AND OTHER INCOME (a) Revenue from contracts with customers Revenue which represents income arising in the course of the Group s ordinary activities is recognised by reference to each distinct performance obligation promised in the contract with customer when or as the Group transfers the control of the goods or services promised in a contract and the customer obtains control of the goods or services. Depending on the substance of the respective contract with customer, the control of the promised goods or services may transfer over time or at a point in time. A contract with customer exists when the contract has commercial substance, the Group and its customer has approved the contract and intend to perform their respective obligations, the Group s and the customer s rights regarding the goods or services to be transferred and the payment terms can be identified, and it is probable that the Group will collect the consideration to which it will be entitled to in exchange of those goods or services. 71

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT D) 5.23 REVENUE AND OTHER INCOME (CONT D) (a) Revenue from contracts with customers (cont d) Recognition and measurement At the inception of each contract with customer, the Group assesses the contract to identify distinct performance obligations, being the units of account that determine when and how revenue from the contract with customer is recognised. A performance obligation is a promise to transfer a distinct good or service (or a series of distinct goods or services that are substantially the same and that have the same pattern of transfer) to the customer that is explicitly stated in the contract and implied in the Group s customary business practices. A good or service is distinct if: the customer can either benefit from the good or service on its own or together with other readily available resources; and the good or service is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. If a good or service is not distinct, the Group combines it with other promised goods or services until the Group identifies a distinct performance obligation consisting a distinct bundle of goods or services. Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties such as goods and services taxes. If the amount of consideration varies due to discounts, rebates, refunds, credits, incentives, performance bonuses, penalties or other similar items, the Group estimates the amount of consideration that it expects to be entitled based on the expected value or the most likely outcome but the estimation is constrained up to the amount that is highly probable of no significant reversal in the future. If the contract with customer contains more than one distinct performance obligation, the amount of consideration is allocated to each distinct performance obligation based on the relative stand-alone selling prices of the goods or services promised in the contract. The consideration allocated to each performance obligation is recognised as revenue when or as the customer obtains control of the goods or services. At the inception of each contract with customer, the Group determines whether control of the goods or services for each performance obligation is transferred over time or at a point in time. Control over the goods or services are transferred over time and revenue is recognised over time if: the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Group s performance as the Group performs; the Group s performance creates or enhances a customer-controlled asset; or the Group s performance does not create an asset with alternative use and the Group has a right to payment for performance completed to date. Revenue for performance obligation that is not satisfied over time is recognised at the point in time at which the customer obtains control of the promised goods or services. 72

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT D) 5.23 REVENUE AND OTHER INCOME (CONT D) (a) Revenue from contracts with customers (cont d) The revenue recognition policies for each of the Group s major activities are described below:- i. Sale of Goods ii. iii. Revenue is recognised upon delivery of goods and customers acceptance, and the Group has a present right to payment for goods sold. Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with customer and where applicable, net of GST, expected returns, cash and trade discounts. Property Development Activities Revenue is recognised progressively when property development services are rendered and such services do not create an asset with an alternative use to the Group, and the Group has a present right to payment for services rendered to date. The progress towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation is measured based on a method that best depicts the Group s performance in satisfying the performance obligation of the contract. This is determined as follows: For landed development projects, the progress is determined by reference to the progress, based on the physical proportion of contract work-to-date certified by professional consultants. For high rise development projects, the progress is determined by reference to the property development costs incurred up to the end of the reporting period as a percentage of total estimated costs for complete satisfaction of the contract. When the services rendered exceed the billings to customers, a contract asset is recognised. If the billings exceed the services rendered, a contract liability is recognised. Construction Activities Revenue is recognised progressively when construction services are rendered and such services do not create an asset with an alternative s use to the Group, and the Group has a present right to payment for services rendered to date. The progress towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation is measured based on a method that best depicts the Group s performance in satisfying the performance obligation of the contract. This is determined by reference to the construction costs incurred up to the end of the reporting period as a percentage of total estimated costs for complete satisfaction of the contract. When the services rendered exceed the billings to customers, a contract asset is recognised. If the billings exceed the services rendered, a contract liability is recognised. (b) Interest income Interest income is recognised on a time proportion basis, taking into account the principal outstanding and the effective rate over the period of maturity, unless collectability is in doubt, in which case it is recognised on a cash receipt basis. 73

9. GOODWILL (CONT D) (a) (b) The carrying amount of goodwill is allocated to MB Max Sdn. Bhd. The recoverable amount of a cash generating unit is determined based on value-in-use calculations using cash flow projections on the financial budget approved by the Board of Directors. Cash flows were projected based on upcoming property development projects which are expected to be launched over the next two financial years. The key assumptions used for value-in-use calculations are as follows:- Gross margin : 23% (2016 37.6%) Duration : 1 January 2018 to 31 December 2020 (2016 1 January 2017 to 31 December 2018) Discount rate : 8.05% (2016 9.7%) (i) (ii) Budgeted gross margin The budgeted gross margin is based on the upcoming property development project and there will not be any significant changes in economic conditions or other abnormal factors, which will adversely affect the operation. Discount rate The discount rate used is based on the weighted average cost of capital. Sensitivity to changes in assumptions The management believes that no reasonably possible changes in any of the above key assumptions would cause the carrying value of the goodwill to be materially higher than its recoverable amount. 10.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS 96,501,267 4,335,998 16,280 100,853,545 The Group s activities are exposed to a variety of market risk (including foreign currency risk, interest rate risk and equity price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group s overall financial risk management policy focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Group s financial performance. 40.1 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT POLICIES The Group s policies in respect of the major areas of treasury activity are as follows:- (a) Market risk (i) Foreign Currency Risk The Group is exposed to foreign currency risk on transactions and balances that are denominated in currencies other than the respective functional currencies of entities within the Group. The currencies giving rise to this risk are primarily United States Dollar and Indian Rupee. Foreign currency risk is monitored closely on an ongoing basis to ensure that the net exposure is at an acceptable level. The Group also holds cash and cash equivalents denominated in foreign currencies for working capital purposes. 113

40. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS 40.1 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT POLICIES (CONT D) (a) Market risk (cont d) (i) Foreign Currency Risk (cont d) The Group s exposure to foreign currency risk (a currency which is other than the functional currency of the entities within the Group) based on the carrying amounts of the financial instruments at the end of the reporting period is summarised below:- Foreign Currency Exposure United States Indian dollar Rupee 2016 RM RM Financial Assets Trade and other receivables 1,227,370 Cash and cash equivalents 161,819 1,389,189 Financial Liabilities Trade and other payables 827,546 308,400 Net financial assets/(liabilities) 561,643 (308,400) Currency exposure 561,643 (308,400) Foreign Currency Risk Sensitivity Analysis Any reasonably possible change in the foreign currency exchange rates at the end of the reporting period against the respective functional currencies of the entities within the Group does not have material impact on the profit/loss after taxation and other comprehensive income of the Group and of the Company and hence, no sensitivity analysis is presented. (ii) Interest Rate Risk Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Group s exposure to interest rate risk arises mainly from long-term borrowings with variable rates. The Group s policy is to obtain the most favourable interest rates available and by maintaining a balanced portfolio of mix of fixed and floating rate borrowings. The Group obtains its external financing through long-term and short-term borrowings which are based on floating rates. The Group actively reviews its borrowings in order to access to cheaper funding in a low interest rate environment. 114 The Group s fixed rate receivables, borrowings and fixed deposits with licensed banks are carried at amortised cost. Therefore, they are not subject to interest rate risk as defined MFRS7 since neither the carrying amount nor the future cash flows will fluctuate because of a change in market interest rates.

40. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS 40.1 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT POLICIES (CONT D) (a) Market risk (cont d) (ii) Interest Rate Risk (cont d) The Group s exposure to interest rate risk based on the carrying amounts of the financial instruments at the end of the reporting period is disclosed in Note 19 to the financial statements. Interest Rate Risk Sensitivity Analysis Any reasonable possible change in the interest rates of floating rate term loans at the end of the reporting period does not have material impact on the profit/(loss) after taxation and other comprehensive income of the Group and of the Company and hence, no sensitivity analysis is presented. (iii) Equity Price Risk (b) Credit Risk The Group does not have any quoted investments and hence is not exposed to equity price risk. The Group s exposure to credit risk, or the risk of counterparties defaulting, arises mainly from receivables and cash and cash equivalents. The Group manages its exposure to credit risk by the application of credit approvals, credit limits and monitoring procedures on an on-going basis. For cash and cash equivalents, the Group seeks to ensure that cash assets are invested safely and profitably by assessing counterparty risks and allocating placement limits for various creditworthy financial institutions. The Group considers the risk of material loss in the event of nonperformance by the above parties to be unlikely. The Group s maximum exposure to credit risk is equal to the carrying value of those financial instruments. The Group uses ageing analysis to monitor the credit quality of the trade receivables. Any receivables having significant balances past due or more than 14 to 60 days, which are deemed to have higher credit risk, are monitored individually. The Group establishes an allowance for impairment that represents its estimate of incurred losses in respect of the trade and other receivables as appropriate. The main components of this allowance are a specific loss component that relates to individually significant exposures, and a collective loss component established for groups of similar assets in respect of losses that have been incurred but not yet identified (where applicable). Impairment is estimated by management based on prior experience and the current economic environment. The Group provides both performance guarantee to third parties for contract works undertaken by certain subsidiaries and corporate guarantee to financial institutions for credit facilities granted to certain subsidiaries. The Company monitors the progress of these contract works to ensure that the agreed terms of the contract works are duly fulfilled by the subsidiaries. The Company also monitors the results of these subsidiaries regularly and repayments made by the subsidiaries. (i) Credit Risk Concentration Profile The Group s major concentration credit risk relates to amounts owing by 1 customer which constituted approximately 39% of its trade receivables (including related parties) at the end of the reporting period. 115

40. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS 40.1 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT POLICIES (CONT D) (b) Credit risk (cont d) (ii) Exposure To Credit Risk At the end of the reporting period, the maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of each class of financial assets recognised in the statements of financial position of the Group and of the Company after deducting any allowance for impairment losses (where applicable).

These receivables are not secured by any collateral or credit enhancement. The Group believes that no impairment allowance is necessary in respect of trade receivables that are past due but not impaired because they are companies with good collection track record and no recent history of default. 116

40. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONT D) 40.1 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT POLICIES (CONT D) (b) Credit Risk (cont d) (iii) Ageing Analysis (cont d) Property Development Segment The management is of the opinion that the recoverability of the amount owed by the purchasers is duly recoverable, due to the following reasons:- (c) (1) the transfer of the property to the purchaser is subject to the full payment of the outstanding amount; (2) most of the purchasers have end financing arrangements, and payments are slow because of the credit processes of the end financiers; and (3) in the event the sale is terminated for non-payment, the Group will be able to recover the property. Other Segments The Group believes that no impairment allowance is necessary in respect of these trade receivables. They are substantially companies with good collection track record and no recent history of default. Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk arises mainly from general funding and business activities. The Group practices prudent risk management by maintaining sufficient cash balances and the availability of funding through certain committed credit facilities.

40. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONT D) 40.2 CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT The Group manages its capital to ensure that entities within the Group will be able to maintain an optimal capital structure so as to support its businesses and maximise shareholders value. To achieve this objective, the Group may make adjustments to the capital structure in view of changes in economic conditions, such as adjusting the amount of dividend payment, returning of capital to shareholders or issuing new shares. The Group manages its capital based on debt-to-equity ratio that complies with debt covenants and regulatory, if any. The debt-to-equity ratio is calculated as net debt divided by total equity. The Group includes within net debt, loans and borrowings from financial institutions less cash and cash equivalents. Capital includes equity attributable to the owners of the parent and non-controlling interest. The Group manages its capital based on debt-to-equity ratio. The debt-to-equity ratio of the Group at the end of the reporting period is not presented as its cash and cash equivalents exceeded the total external borrowings. There was no change in the Group s approach to capital management during the financial year. 40.3 CLASSIFICATION OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Financial Assets THE COMPANY 2017 2016 2017 2016 rm RM RM RM Available-for-sale Financial Assets Club membership 50,000 Loans and Receivables Financial Assets Trade and other receivables (excluding prepayments, deferred expenditure and GST receivable) 104,182,010 51,540,076 44,304,645 48,639,520 Cash and cash equivalents 42,617,890 23,120,609 14,241,801 16,021,415 146,799,900 74,660,685 58,546,446 64,660,935 Financial Liabilities Other Financial Liabilities Trade and other payables (excluding contract liabilities and GST payable) 220,205,949 26,837,514 6,393,206 6,425,276 Borrowings 37,409,729 4,615,161 257,615,678 31,452,675 6,393,206 6,425,276 119

The fair values of hire purchase payables that carry fixed interest rates are determined by discounting the relevant future contractual cash flows using current market interest rates for similar instruments at the end of the reporting period. The interest rates used to discount the estimated cash flows are as follows:-. 2017 2016 % % Hire purchase payables 4.29 10.22 2.38 4.94 120
