MANAGEMENT REPORT

Amidst a global pandemic that caused severe disruptions in the daily lives of people all over the world in
2020, Anchor Land Holdings, Inc. soldiered on to protect our shareholders by maintaining profitability
despite immense challenges.

As a result, we ended the year with a =


P 351.39 million net profit and increased our assets by =P 2.11 billion,
which we consider as solid foundations to build upon and return to rising profitability in the near-term.

Our net income was down 56.8% from the previous year’s Php814.27 million. This was mainly brought
about by lower real estate sales totalling =
P 2.13 billion, a decrease of Php2.61 billion from the 2019 sales of
=
P 4.73 billion as investors took a wait-and-see attitude and held on to their cash for possible emergencies.

Revenues were likewise impacted by government protocols to contain the pandemic, including restricting
people’s movement that prevented construction projects from timely completion as well as limiting
marketing and selling activities.

It was not only the real estate industry that was adversely affected by the restrictions but the entire
Philippine economy, with the 2020 GDP contracting by -9.6%, the lowest since the country started tracking
economic data in 1946 after World War II.

However, Anchor Land Holdings, Inc. is optimistic that the economic slowdown is temporary and that a
quick recovery is underway.

This optimism is borne by the fact that several vaccines have been rapidly developed and deployed by
major pharmaceutical companies around the world, which should enable the global economy to quickly
bounce back and people are able to return to normal lives.

And, while awaiting a return to the new normal, the Group has lined up at least five new projects for the
coming year in and around Manila’s Chinatown: One Legacy Grandsuites, Cornell Parksuites, One Financial
Center, Recto Logistics and Rosan Logistics.

Another source of optimism is the continuing improvement in our rental revenues, which in 2020 breached
the Php1 billion level to =
P 1.02 billion, an increase of 30.6% from the previous year’s =
P 782.99 million.

More significantly, rental income contributed 26.2% to the Group’s total consolidated revenue in 2020, and
its biggest source was The Centrium, our first office project consisting of two towers at the Entertainment
City District where office spaces are in high demand and thus command a huge premium.

Despite the movement restrictions imposed by the government, we were able to continue construction
activities for The Centrium, Cosmo Suites and Admiral Hotel – all of which are expected to further grow our
recurring income stream upon full completion.

There are other encouraging results in 2020.

By the end of the year, The Group’s total assets stood at =


P 35.63 billion, an increase of =
P 2.11 billion or 6%
from the previous year’s =P 33.52 billion.

The asset growth was mainly due to increases in real estate for development and sale; properties and
equipment and investment properties; and other assets, including noncurrent portion, by =
P 264.36 million.

Meanwhile, construction and development costs related to the Group’s ongoing projects, particularly the
Centrium, Admiral Hotel, Central Link and Cosmo Suites, caused the increase in properties and equipment
and investment properties to a combined Php17.94 billion, up by = P 950.62 million from = P 16.99 billion
year-on-year.

PART I - BUSINESS AND GENERAL INFORMATION

Item 1. Business

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

Anchor Land Holdings, Inc. (“ALHI” or the “Company”) was registered with the Philippine Securities and
Exchange Commission (“SEC” or the “Commission”) on July 29, 2004 with an authorized capital stock of
P10,000,000.00 divided into 100,000 common shares with a par value of P100.00.

The Company is the holding company of the ALHI Group (the “Group”) with principal business interest in
real estate organized to acquire by purchase, lease, donation, or otherwise, and to own, use, improve,
develop, subdivide, sell, mortgage, exchange, lease, and hold for investment, real estate of all kinds, whether
to improve, manage or otherwise dispose of buildings, houses, apartments, and other structures of
whatever kind, together with their appurtenances.

The Company traces its roots to Anchor Properties Corporation. Anchor Properties Corporation was
incorporated in July 15, 2003. It commenced commercial operations on April 30, 2004, simultaneously with
the start of the construction of its Lee Tower project.

The Company was founded by a group of entrepreneurs led by Mr. Stephen L. Keng and Mr. Steve Li. The
Company was primarily organized to engage in real estate development and marketing focusing initially in
high-end residential condominiums within the Manila area. It started business operations on
November 25, 2005.

On December 13, 2006, the board of directors and stockholders of the Company approved and authorized
the plan of merger of Anchor Properties Corporation, with the Company as the surviving entity.
Simultaneously with the approval of the Company’s merger with Anchor Properties Corporation, the
Company’s board of directors and stockholders also approved amendments to Company’s Articles as
follows: (a) reduction of the par value from P100.00 to P1.00 resulting in stock split and increase in
authorized capital stock from P10,000,000.00 to P1,000,000,000.00. Both companies are substantially
under common control and the merger of the two companies was done to consolidate their real estate
projects under one group.

On July 7, 2011, the board of directors and stockholders of the Company approved the amendment of the
Company’s Articles of Incorporation as follows: a) increase in authorized capital stock of the Company from
1,000,000,000 shares of common stock with par value of P1.00 per share to 2,300,000,000 shares of
common stock with par value of P1.00 per share; and b) increase in authorized capital stock of the Company
by creating 1,300,000,000 units of 8%, voting, preferred shares with par value of P1.00 per share.

On November 8, 2013, the Philippine SEC approved the increase of capital stock of ALHI from
P3,600,000,000.00 divided into 2,300,000,000 common shares and 1,300,000,000 preferred shares, both
with a par value of P1.00 each to P4,800,000,000.00 divided into 3,500,000,000 common shares and
1,300,000,000 preferred shares, both with a par value of P 1.00 per share.

BUSINESS PLAN

Despite the severe impact of the coronavirus pandemic on the global and local economies in 2020, Anchor
Land Holdings, Inc., was able to weather the challenges and ended the year with a net income of
=
P 351.39 million, reflecting our strong financial position and sound business strategies.

We also learned valuable insights from emerging market trends that were further highlighted during the
pandemic, including a dramatic consumer shift to e-commerce which provides us the impetus to develop
more logistics centers to cater to this growing segment.

Full Digitalization, E-Commerce Push

The lessons of 2020 made ALHI more determined than ever to continue our path towards full digitization
and to further embrace electronic technologies in all facets of our operations, especially towards digital
marketing and customer care that were started long before the pandemic hit the entire world.

The key for the Group, moving forward, is to further strengthen our resilience and our capability to rise
above unforeseen challenges by embracing more innovations and cutting-edge solutions, and to apply them
to both our property developments and corporate culture.

This means that current and future projects will see the incorporation of more intelligent and environment-
friendly building designs that will enable our customers to live and do business in absolute comfort and
safety without sacrificing aesthetics and productivity.

These modern and intelligent building features are already standard in our developments, but we shall
endeavor to further maximize their use and potential applications so that our projects will all be “future-
ready”.

In terms of marketing and customer support, we continuously pursue innovations such as the creation of
virtual project site tours that will bring real-life images to our customers, rendered in such vivid details
that makes the visitors feel as if they are in actually in the units they plan to purchase.

We have likewise adopted the use of video conferencing facilities and applications for our sales personnel,
both for training and reporting purposes. This eliminates the need for actual long-distance travel especially
as the Group pursues the development of more projects across the archipelago.

Customers shall also have the option to talk with our sales and marketing personnel anytime, anywhere to
discuss project development updates, payment options. This greatly benefits our overseas clients especially
during times of restricted and limited travel.

Resilience and Risk Reduction Through Diversification

One of our long-standing business principles to guarantee resilience and risk reduction has been the
diversification of our project offerings.

From the luxury residential condominiums that have become our trademark since we started in Binondo,
we have expanded to logistics centers, office developments, co-living spaces, as well as hotels and tourist
facilities all over the country.

Many of these newer developments create more recurring rental flow for the Group, thus insulating us
further from fluctuations in the residential-commercial market.

Our success in this endeavor is reflected by the upward trend in Anchor Land’s rental income through the
past five years so that, in 2020, we broke through the Php1 billion mark in this revenue category.

Page 7 of 54
Our 2020 rental income received a huge boost from the opening of the Centrium, our first office project
which has been a LEED Pre-Certified Gold 12-story development consisting of two towers to meet the
growing demand for such spaces at the Entertainment City District.

Construction is also in full swing for our first public-private partnership or PPP endeavor, the Central Link,
which is a Php4 billion joint venture with the Parañaque City Government that commenced in 2019.

The Central Link boasts of three purpose-specific buildings: A satellite office tower for the host city
government, a corporate office tower and a co-living tower. They are all designed to create more jobs as
well as to bring government services closer to the Bay City.

Outside of Metro Manila, our 202 Peaklane project in the heart of Davao City continues to rise. This 28-
story, two-tower development is a perfect vehicle for property investments because of its strategic location
and top-notch amenities.

Strong, Sustainable Growth

In terms of market share, we continue our niche developments that include reshaping and revitalizing
Manila’s Chinatown district – a prime example of how well-conceived development concepts can help uplift
and usher an entire community into the future.

Our Chinatown portfolio continues to grow by the day, thanks to our deep understanding and intimate
knowledge of the community where Anchor Land is already considered part of the family.

This is evidenced by our ongoing projects in the district like Anchor Grandsuites, 8 Alonzo Parksuites, and
Juan Luna Logistics Center which have been warmly received just like our previous offerings.

Another fertile field for bold and audacious development plans is the Manila Bay Area where Anchor Land
has helped create a pulsing, vibrant business and entertainment hub that has become one of the most
dynamic and fastest growing in the country.

Ongoing developments such as The Centrium at the Bay City within the jurisdiction of Parañaque, together
with Cosmo Suites and Kanlaon Tower in Pasay City, are designed to boost and complement the booming
BPO and KPO industries in this strategic commercial and leisure center.

Along Roxas Boulevard, we have ongoing projects like the Admiral Grandsuites and the Admiral Hotel
Manila MGallery boutique hotel to further strengthen Anchor Land’s position in the Bay Area.

A Steady Stream of Development

To ensure sustained growth and availability of inventory, Anchor Land has at least 12 new projects planned
for launching in the near future, including five that will be started in 2021.

These developments range from residential and office developments to logistics centers and hotel and
tourism establishments in accordance with the Group’s goal of continuous diversification.

New Projects in 2021

In Chinatown, we intend to further expand our footprint by launching at least four new projects in 2021,
namely: One Financial Center, One Legacy Grandsuites, Cornell Parksuites and Rosan Logistics.

Our fifth offering for 2021, Recto Logistics, will be located in the adjacent Sta. Cruz district across the 168
Mall.

One Legacy Grandsuites and Cornell Parksuites will continue catering to the ever-growing residential
market in Binondo while One Financial Center will be our first office building in the district to meet strong
pent-up demand.

Page 8 of 54
Rosan Logistics and Recto Logistics, for their part, will provide businessmen with increasing storage and
logistics facilities as e-commerce continues to grow exponentially in the Philippines especially during the
pandemic.

Projects in the Pipeline

Anchor Land’s planned projects in the near future include high-end residential tower The Panorama Manila
along Roxas Boulevard aimed at sustaining our momentum in the Bay Area.

Likewise, there are at least three more logistics centers in the pipeline, all in Chinatown: Divisoria Logistics
and two as yet unnamed projects that will be built in company-owned properties along Yuchengo Street
and Juan Luna Street.

Our hotel and resort developments in world-famous Boracay island and two others in Palawan – in the
island municipalities of San Vicente and Coron – likewise remain in the pipeline as we await better
opportunities and improved market conditions in the tourism sector.

We Are Here to Stay

While the year 2020 may have proven a challenging one, Anchor Land remains unfazed and unshaken in
our commitment to continue creating value for our customers and shareholders.

We shall remain at the forefront of innovation in the local real estate industry, and continue our leadership
in niche markets where we have built trust, confidence and the reputation for always creating new trends
that soon become industry-wide practices.

As the IPO provides, the certificates of registration covering the foregoing trade names and trademarks
shall remain in force for ten (10) years, unless sooner terminated, and may be renewed for periods of ten
(10) years thereafter. Since these names and logos have become distinctive with the luxury homes and
quality service for which the Group is known, the renewal of these certificates shall be made upon their
expiration and the Group shall continue to safeguard its rights over the same. For the same reasons, the
Group also applied for the registration of the trade names and trademarks of its newest development
projects and these applications are currently pending before the IPO.

EFFECT OF EXISTING OR PROBABLE GOVERNMENTAL REGULATIONS ON THE BUSINESS

For the purpose of regulating the subdivision and condominium businesses in the country, Congress has
enacted Presidential Decree No. 957, as amended (PD 957), otherwise known as the “Subdivision and
Condominium Buyer’s Protective Decree”. The power to enforce the provisions of PD 957 is vested on the
Department of Human Settlements and Urban Development (DHSUD), formerly known as Housing and
Land Use Regulatory Board and, to a certain degree, on the concerned local government units (LGUs). PD
957 mandates the registration of all projects intended for the construction of residential, commercial,
industrial or recreational subdivisions, as well as residential and commercial condominiums. It also
prescribes the procedure by which real estate companies may acquire such registration, and the various
licenses, permits and certificates necessary to prove that their development projects are carried out
according to existing statutory requirements.

For condominium projects, PD 957 and the existing rules promulgated by the DHSUD require all owners or
developers to apply for Development Permit, Certificate of Registration and License to Sell with the DHSUD
and pertinent LGUs prior to actual development and selling of units. These documentary requirements
were duly accomplished by the Group for all its projects as it regularly applies for the required government
approvals for any condominium project it undertakes to develop.

ANTI-MONEY LAUNDERING ACT

In anticipation of the passage and effectivity of the amended Anti-Money Laundering Act of 2001, which
includes real estate developers as covered persons, ALHI Group has taken steps to comply and will
comply with the reportorial requirements for covered and suspicious transactions.

EFFECT OF COVID-19 WORLDWIDE PANDEMIC

The ALHI Group of companies, like many other corporations, have been impacted by the current worldwide
pandemic of Covid-19.

During the enhanced community quarantine imposed by the Inter-Agency Task Force on Infectious
Diseases (IATF) on the National Capital Region from March 17, 2020 to
May 15, 2020, the Group was forced to close its offices and suspend its construction operations. Upon the
return of daily operations under the modified enhanced community quarantine and general community
quarantine, the Group saw a slower flow of transactions due to restrictions in transportation, stricter safety
measures in government agencies, and limitations in doing face to face business. As a result of more
stringent regulations that the Group has to adhere to in doing business in general, business operations and,
ultimately, the Group’s performance for the year 2020 was affected.

by issuing the following Licenses to Sell in favor of the Group:

Cornell Parksuites December 23, 2020

At the appropriate time, the Group also intends to procure the required Licenses to Sell for its future
condominium projects.

Further, in connection with this requirement, and pursuant to the mandatory provisions of PD 957, all
active real estate dealers, brokers and salesmen directly connected with the Group and its projects have
registered themselves with the DHSUD. Moreover, in compliance with Republic Act No. 9646 (RA 9646),
otherwise known as the “Real Estate Service Act of the Philippines”, all real estate service practitioners,
except salespersons, engaged by the Group, have taken the required licensure examination and other
continuing education programs in their field.

The Company and its subsidiaries has likewise secured all the necessary business permits and licenses
required from all government agencies which include registrations and licenses from the SEC, Social
Security System (SSS), and the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR).

To date, as far as the Group is concerned, there is no existing legislation or governmental regulation that is
expected to materially affect its business.

Costs and Effects of Compliance with Environmental Laws

In the Philippines, the owner or developer of any project that poses a potential environmental threat or is
likely to cause a significant impact on the environment in a particular area is required to secure an
Environmental Compliance Certificate (ECC) from the Department of Environment and Natural Resources
(DENR). The ECC is issued by the Environmental Management Bureau (EMB) of the DENR, which serves as
a certification that, after reviewing the proposed project, the EMB found that the project will not cause a
significant negative impact on the environment. The issuance of the ECC also certifies that the project
complied with all the requirements of the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) and the applicant has
committed to implement its approved Environmental Management Plan. In some instances, the ECC
likewise contains specific measures that must be complied with before and during the operation of the
Page 16 of 54
project, and lists the conditions required to be performed at the abandonment phase of the project to
reduce identified potential impacts on the environment.

Among the projects classified by law to be environmentally critical and mandated to procure ECC prior to
commencement of operation are those involving the construction and development of condominiums.
Hence, the Group has consistently applied for the required ECCs for all its projects. After presenting the
details of its projects before the members of the EMB, satisfying all requirements and proving that no
serious environmental damage shall result from the construction of its condominiums, the Group was able
to secure the necessary ECCs for its projects. The relevant details of the ECCs issued in favor of the Group
and its subsidiaries are as follows:

RISKS

The Group is subject to competition in each of its principal businesses. This competition comes in terms of
attracting buyers for its condominium units and tenants for its commercial spaces. The Group manages
this risk by identifying the underserved and/or hard to penetrate market, recognizing their needs and
wants prior to project inception, prompt project delivery and maintaining highest turnover standards.
With this, the Group is confident that it will surpass the competition.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following management’s discussion and analysis of the Group’s financial condition and results of
operations should be read in conjunction with the Group’s audited financial statements, including the
related notes, contained in this report. This report contains forward-looking statements that involve risks
and uncertainties. The Group cautions investors that its business and financial performance is subject to
substantive risks and uncertainties.
Page 27 of 54
Results of Operations Jan-Dec 31, 2020 vs. Jan-Dec 31, 2019

The Group generated a total of P =351.39 million consolidated net income for the year ended
December 31, 2020. This is 57% lower than P
=814.27 million recognized in the prior year.

The decrease in the consolidated net income was mainly due to the decrease in real estate sales of about
=2,605.97 million or 55% due to low construction accomplishment and low sales volume due to limited
P
selling activities as a result of the quarantine measures implemented by the Government with ongoing
COVID 19 pandemic. The Group has four new projects expected to be launched in 2021.

On the other hand, the Group’s revenue from rental continues to improve in 2020, contributing 31% to
the total consolidated revenue or an amount of P=1,022.47 million compared to the P =782.99 million
recorded in 2019. The increased rental income of the Group was mainly from the rentals earned from
The Centrium.

The significant increase in rental income and the ongoing construction of The Centrium, Cosmo Suites
and Admiral Hotel are all in line with the Group’s continuing efforts to invest and increase its recurring
income projects to rebalance the mix of its revenue sources.

In general, the Group’s operation has been significantly affected by the disruptions caused by the
COVID-19 pandemic. Nevertheless, the revenue increase from rental operations helped the Group to
remain profitable despite the pandemic’s negative effect to the Group’s consolidated net income.

Financial Condition 2020 - 2019

The Group’s total assets amounting to P


=35.63 billion and P=33.52 billion as at December 31, 2020 and
2019, respectively, increased by 6% or P
=2.11 billion. The increase was mainly due to increases in real
estate for development and sale by P =1,801.30 million, properties and equipment and investment
properties by P
=950.62 million and other assets (including noncurrent portion) by P
=264.26 million.

The Group incurred construction and development cost of P =2,663.21 million under real estate for
development and sale. Moreover, reclassification of assets, particularly the land assets for the
Panorama, Recto Logistics, and Rosan Logistics which are previously recorded under investment
properties contributed to the significant increase in the real estate for development and sale in 2020.

The construction and development cost incurred for The Centrium, Admiral Hotel, Central Link and
Cosmo Suites caused the increase in property and equipment and investment properties. The
construction of the Central Link, the Public-Private Partnership (PPP) project with the local government
of Paranaque City started in 2020. This resulted to an increase to other noncurrent assets due to the
advances paid to the contractors.

The Group’s total liabilities has grown by P=1.85 billion partly from the loans availments in 2020, the
increase in payables related to the Group’s ongoing projects and the customer’s deposits and advances
from the Group’s buyers that include collections of receivables not yet recognized as revenue.

The movements in equity accounts follow:


 Retained earnings - increase was brought by the net income for the year ended
December 31, 2020 net of the cash dividends declared.
 Non-controlling interests – increased due to net income during the year attributable to the
non-controlling interests.

Page 28 of 54
Results of Operations Jan-Dec 31, 2019 vs. Jan-Dec 31, 2018

The Group generated a consolidated net income of =


P 814.27 million for the year ended December 31, 2019,
an increase of 16% from =
P 700.63 million consolidated net income for the same period in 2018.

The increase in the consolidated net income is mainly due to the growing rental operations. The rental
operations of the Group posted a stronger performance in 2019 as evidenced by an increase of 29% in
rental income compared to 2018. This is brought about by the significant increase in rental income from
The Centrium, Baylife Venue and Kanlaon Tower Project.

Real estate sales revenue, on the other hand, decreased by 12% because the Group has sold most of its real
estate inventories while 3 new projects that were planned to be launched in 2019 were pushed back to
2020.

The significant increase in rental income and the ongoing construction of The Centrium, Cosmo Suites and
Admiral Hotel are all in line with the Group’s continuing efforts to invest and increase its recurring income
projects while rebalancing the mix of its revenue sources.

Financial Condition 2019 - 2018

The Group’s total assets amounted to = P 33.52 billion and =


P 28.00 billion as at December 31, 2019 and 2018,
respectively. The increase of 20% in total assets is mainly due to the increase in cash and cash equivalents
by =
P 129.39 million and the increase in investment properties and property and equipment by = P 5.94 billion
due to the continuing construction and development of The Centrium, Cosmo Suites and Admiral Hotel and
acquisitions of several properties in the City of Manila and San Vicente, Palawan.

The increase of 23% in the Group’s total liabilities was mainly brought about by the bank loans availed
during the year to acquire several properties in the City of Manila and deposits received from the
prospective lessees and from the buyers of the Group’s new and ongoing projects which includes new sales
that are not yet recognized as revenue.

The movements in equity accounts follow:

 Retained earnings - increase brought by the net income for the year ended December 31, 2019
which was slightly offset by the dividends declared on April 3, 2019.
 Other comprehensive income – decrease resulted from the remeasurements in pension liabilities.
 Non-controlling interests - decrease due to net loss attributable to the non-controlling interests.

Results of Operations Jan-Dec 31, 2018 vs. Jan-Dec 31, 2017

The consolidated net income of the Group increased to =


P 700.63 million, 13% higher compared to the net
income for year ended December 31, 2017.

The increase in the Group’s net income is mainly due to the steadily growing rental operations of the Group
as evidenced by the 65% increase in rental income thereby accounting for 9% of the Group’s total revenue
in 2018. Higher income from rental operations is due to the continuous rise in the occupancy in recurring
income projects which included the turned-over commercial units in Solemare Parksuites, Monarch
Parksuites, Oxford Parksuites, BayLife Venue and the newly acquired Kanlaon Tower. Moreover, the Group
continues to generate recurring income from its warehousing facilities, namely One Soler and One Logistics
Center, and from its warehouse and commercial centers pertaining to One Shopping Center and Two
Shopping Center.

The Group has ongoing construction of recurring income projects. These are The Centrium located in
Aseana City, Paranaque which is expected to be completed in 2020 and Cosmo Suites which will offer bed
spacing facilities in Pasay. These developments are presented as investment properties in the Group’s
consolidated financial statements and the related rental income is recognized when construction of these
assets are completed and leased out to third parties.

Page 29 of 54
The significant increase in rental income and the ongoing construction of The Centrium and Cosmo Suites
are all in line with the Group’s continuing efforts to invest and increase its recurring income projects while
rebalancing the mix of its revenue sources.

Financial Condition 2018 - 2017

The Group’s total assets amounted to = P 28.00 billion and =


P 25.83 billion as at December 31, 2018 and
December 31, 2017, respectively. The increase in total assets is mainly due to the increase in investment
properties by =P 2.15 billion which was driven by the continuing construction and development of The
Centrium and Cosmo Suites, the acquisition of Kanlaon Tower and the completion of BayLife Venue and the
commercial units in Monarch Parksuites and Oxford Parksuites. The ongoing development of Admiral
Hotel, which led to the increase in the property and equipment, has likewise contributed to the increase in
the Group’s total assets.

The increase of 9% or = P 1.72 billion in the Group’s total liabilities is mainly due to the additional availment
of loans during 2018 in order to partly fund the Group’s continuing construction activities and property
acquisitions. Further, the advances, downpayments and deposits paid by the Group’s buyers of
condominium units and lessees of commercial units have likewise contributed to the increase in the
Group’s total liabilities as at December 31, 2018.

The movements in equity accounts follow:


 Retained earnings - increase brought by the net income for the period ended December 31, 2018
less cash dividend declaration and the effect of the initial adoption of new accounting standards.
 Other comprehensive income - increase resulted from the remeasurement gain in pension
liabilities.
 Non-controlling interests - decrease due to current period net loss attributable to the non-
controlling interests.

Income before income tax and provision for income tax decreased by 56% and 55%, respectively, as a
collective result of the above-mentioned causes.

Review of December 31, 2019 as compared with December 31, 2018

Material Changes to the Balance Sheet as at December 31, 2019


Compared to December 31, 2018 (Increase/Decrease of 5% or more)

Cash and cash equivalents increased by 12% as the net result of proceeds from loan availments and
settlements, and collections from customers less disbursements for construction activities and property
acquisitions.

The 10% decrease in real estate for development and sale is mainly due to the construction costs charged
to cost of sales related to the units sold for the year and the transfer to investment properties pertaining to
the costs of completed commercial units in Princeview Parksuites project.

Other assets (including noncurrent portion) increased by 17% mainly due to the higher advances to
contractors and suppliers related to the construction activities. Moreover, higher input value added tax,
creditable withholding tax and prepaid expenses also contributed to the increase in other assets.

Property and equipment increased by 77% as a result of the continuing construction and development of
Admiral Hotel.

The 51% increase in investment properties is mainly due to the continuing construction and development
of The Centrium, Cosmo Suites and Kanlaon Tower and acquisitions of several properties in the City of
Manila (Binondo and Roxas Boulevard) and San Vicente, Palawan. Due to the adoption of PFRS 16,
Page 32 of 54
recognition of right-of-use asset for the lease of land in Aseana City, Paranaque, also contributed to the
increase in investment properties byP =209.52 million.

The increase of 35% in deferred tax assets mainly resulted from the recognition of the difference between
tax and book basis of accounting for real estate transactions and revenue.

Accounts and other payables (including noncurrent portion) increased by 43% mainly attributed to the
increase in rental security deposits related to the Group’s new recurring income project, The Centrium.
Increase in accruals for commission and interests, other taxes payable, and retention payable related to

recognized as revenue during the period.

Lease liabilities (including noncurrent portion) increased by = P 259.93 million due to the result of the
adoption of PFRS 16 in 2019. The amount of increase is net of rental payments and amortization of interest
expense during the year.

The increase in income tax payable by 144% is due to higher taxable net income in 2019. This also resulted
to higher current income tax expense in 2019.

Pension liabilities increased by =


P 38.36 million as a result of pension expense and interest costs for the year
ended December 31, 2019.

Other comprehensive income decreased by =

between tax and book basis of accounting for real estate transactions.

The 13% increase in retained earnings represents consolidated net income net of cash dividend declaration
in 2019.

Non-controlling interests decreased by =


P 10.43 million due to current period net loss attributable to the
non-controlling interests.

Material Changes to the Statements of Income for the Year Ended December 31, 2019
Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2018 (Increase/Decrease of 5% or more)

Real estate sales revenue decreased by 12% mainly due to the decrease in sales in terms of the number of
units since most of the inventories have already been sold for the old projects.

Rental income increased by 29% in 2019 mainly due to the increase in rental income from commercial and
office units to =
P 445.02 million in 2019 compared to = P 283.81 million in 2018. Rental income from

Revenue from management fees increased by 12% or =


P 3.43 million due to higher property management
services rendered during the year.

contracts receivable from Copeton Baysuites, 202 Peaklane, 8 Alonzo Parksuites, Anchor Grandsuites and
Juan Luna Logistics Center.

Page 33 of 54
Cost of real estate sales went down by 12% or =
P 487.70 million due to the lower level of realized sales of
residential units during the year.

The increase in selling and administrative expenses of 10% is primarily brought by the increase in
depreciation and amortization of the Group’s completed recurring income projects and right-of-use assets.
The higher operating costs on the Group’s recurring income projects also contributed to the increase in
selling and administrative expenses.

Finance cost increased by 39% or = P 14.30 million mainly due to the amortization of interest expense on the
Group’s lease liability in relation to the adoption of the new accounting standard for leases in 2019.

Cash and cash equivalents increased by 11% as the net result of proceeds from loan availments and
settlements, and collections from customers less disbursements for construction activities and property
acquisitions.

The 11% decrease in Real estate for development and sale is mainly due to the sold units during the year
and the transfer of the costs of the completed commercial units to investment properties.

The 25% increase in Other assets is mainly due to the advance payments made for the future acquisition of
shares of a company and the increase in advances made to contractors and suppliers.

Property and equipment increased by 31% as a result of the continuing construction and development of
Admiral Hotel.
Investment properties increased by 28% or = P 2.15 billion mainly due to the acquisition of Kanlaon Tower,

real estate for development and sale of the costs of the completed commercial units of Monarch Parksuites
and Oxford Parksuites, and completion of BayLife Venue.

The increase of 187% or =P 36.76 million in Deferred tax assets mainly resulted from the recognition of the
difference between tax and book basis of accounting for real estate transactions and contracts revenue.

The decrease in income tax payable by 11% is due to the higher amount of creditable withholding taxes
claimed against income tax expense in 2018.

The 12% increase in Loans payable is the net result of loan availments and settlement of loans. These loans
were obtained to partly finance the Group’s construction of ongoing projects and property acquisitions.

Material Changes to the Statements of Income for the Year Ended December 31, 2018
Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2017 (Increase/Decrease of 5% or more)

Rental income increased by 65% mainly due to the increased occupancy in recurring income projects which
included the turned-over commercial units in Solemare Parksuites, Monarch Parksuites, Oxford Parksuites
and Baylife Venue, and the residential and commercial units in Kanlaon Tower. The Group likewise
continues to generate rental income from other recurring income projects such as One Soler, One Logistics

Changes in Accounting Policies and Disclosures


The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the Group’s financial statements are consistent with those
of the previous financial years except for the following new and amended PFRSs which were adopted
beginning January 1, 2020. The adoption of these pronouncements did not have any significant impact to
the Group’s consolidated financial position and performance unless otherwise indicated.

 Amendments to PFRS 3, Definition of a Business


The amendments to PFRS 3 clarify the minimum requirements to be a business, remove the
assessment of a market participant’s ability to replace missing elements, and narrow the definition of
outputs. The amendments also add guidance to assess whether an acquired process is substantive
and add illustrative examples. An optional fair value concentration test is introduced which permits a
simplified assessment of whether an acquired set of activities and assets is not a business.

These amendments will apply on future business combinations of the Group.

 Amendments to PFRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosures and PFRS 9, Financial Instruments


Interest Rate Benchmark Reform
The amendments to PFRS 9 provide a number of reliefs, which apply to all hedging relationships that
are directly affected by the interest rate benchmark reform. A hedging relationship is affected if the
reform gives rise to uncertainties about the timing and or amount of benchmark-based cash flows of
the hedged item or the hedging instrument.

These amendments had no significant impact to the Group’s consolidated financial statements.

Page 35 of 54
 Amendments to PAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements, and PAS 8, Accounting Policies, Changes
in Accounting Estimates and Errors, Definition of Material
The amendments provide a new definition of material that states “information is material if omitting,
misstating or obscuring it could reasonably be expected to influence decisions that the primary users
of general purpose financial statements make on the basis of those financial statements, which
provide financial information about a specific reporting entity.”

The amendments clarify that materiality will depend on the nature or magnitude of information,
either individually or in combination with other information, in the context of the financial
statements. A misstatement of information is material if it could reasonably be expected to influence
decisions made by the primary users.

 Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting issued on March 29, 2018


The Conceptual Framework is not a standard, and none of the concepts contained therein override
the concepts or requirements in any standard. The purpose of the Conceptual Framework is to assist
the standard-setters in developing standards, to help preparers develop consistent accounting
policies where there is no applicable standard in place and to assist all parties to understand and
interpret the standards.

The revised Conceptual Framework includes new concepts, provides updated definitions and
recognition criteria for assets and liabilities and clarifies some important concepts.

 Amendments to PFRS 16, COVID-19-related Rent Concessions


The amendments to PFRS 16 provide practical relief to the lessees in accounting for rent concessions
arising as a direct consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic. A lessee may elect not to assess whether a
rent concession is a lease modification if all of the following conditions are met:
 The change in lease payments results in a revised lease consideration that is substantially the
same as, or less than, the lease consideration immediately preceding the change;
 Any reduction in lease payments affects only payments originally due on or before
June 30, 2021; and
 There is no substantive change to other terms and conditions of the lease.

A lessee that applies this practical expedient will account for any change in lease payments resulting
from the COVID-19 related rent concession in the same way it would account for a change that is not
a lease modification, i.e., as a variable lease payment.

The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after June 1, 2020.

The amendments did not have a significant impact to the Group as there are no rent concessions
granted to the group as a lessee.

 Adoption of PIC Q&A 2020-03, Q&A No. 2018-12-D: STEP 3 - On the Accounting of the
Difference When the Percentage of Completion is Ahead of the Buyer’s Payment.
PIC Q&A 2020-03 was issued by the PIC on September 30, 2020 aims to provide an additional option
to the preparers of financial statements to present as receivables, the difference between the POC and
the buyer’s payment, with the POC being ahead. This PIC Q&A is consistent with the PIC guidance
issued to the real estate industry in September 2019.

Standards and Interpretation Issued but Not yet Effective


Pronouncements issued but not yet effective are listed below. Unless otherwise indicated, the Group does
not expect the future adoption of these pronouncements to have a significant impact on its consolidated
financial statements. The Group intends to adopt the following pronouncements when they become
effective.

Page 36 of 54
Effective beginning on or after January 1, 2021

 Amendments to PFRS 9, PFRS 7, PFRS 4 and PFRS 16, Interest Rate Benchmark Reform – Phase 2
The amendments provide the following temporary reliefs which address the financial reporting
effects when an interbank offered rate (IBOR) is replaced with an alternative nearly risk-free interest
rate (RFR):
 Practical expedient for changes in the basis for determining the contractual cash flows as a
result of IBOR reform
 Relief from discontinuing hedging relationships
 Relief from the separately identifiable requirement when an RFR instrument is designated as
a hedge of a risk component

The Group shall also disclose information about:


 The about the nature and extent of risks to which the entity is exposed arising from financial
instruments subject to IBOR reform, and how the entity manages those risks; and
 Their progress in completing the transition to alternative benchmark rates, and how the
entity is managing that transition

The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2021 and
apply retrospectively, however, the Group is not required to restate prior periods.

Effective beginning on or after January 1, 2022

 Amendments to PFRS 3, Reference to the Conceptual Framework

The amendments are intended to replace a reference to the Framework for the Preparation and
Presentation of Financial Statements, issued in 1989, with a reference to the Conceptual Framework
for Financial Reporting issued in March 2018 without significantly changing its requirements. The
amendments added an exception to the recognition principle of PFRS 3, Business Combinations to
avoid the issue of potential ‘day 2’gains or losses arising for liabilities and contingent liabilities that
would be within the scope of PAS 37, Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets or
Philippine-IFRIC 21, Levies, if incurred separately.
At the same time, the amendments add a new paragraph to PFRS 3 to clarify that contingent assets do
not qualify for recognition at the acquisition date.

The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022 and
apply prospectively.

 Amendments to PAS 16 , Plant and Equipment: Proceeds before Intended Use

The amendments prohibit entities deducting from the cost of an item of property, plant and
equipment, any proceeds from selling items produced while bringing that asset to the location and
condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. Instead,
an entity recognizes the proceeds from selling such items, and the costs of producing those items, in
profit or loss.

The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022 and
must be applied retrospectively to items of property, plant and equipment made available for use on
or after the beginning of the earliest period presented when the entity first applies the amendment.

 Amendments to PAS 37, Onerous Contracts – Costs of Fulfilling a Contract

The amendments specify which costs an entity needs to include when assessing whether a contract is
onerous or loss-making. The amendments apply a “directly related cost approach”. The costs that
relate directly to a contract to provide goods or services include both incremental costs and an
allocation of costs directly related to contract activities. General and administrative costs do not
relate directly to a contract and are excluded unless they are explicitly chargeable to the counterparty
under the contract.

Page 37 of 54
The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022.
The Group will apply these amendments to contracts for which it has not yet fulfilled all its
obligations at the beginning of the annual reporting period in which it first applies the amendments.

 Annual Improvements to PFRSs 2018-2020 Cycle

o Amendments to PFRS 1, First-time Adoption of Philippines Financial Reporting Standards,


Subsidiary as a first-time adopter
o
The amendment permits a subsidiary that elects to apply paragraph D16(a) of PFRS 1 to measure
cumulative translation differences using the amounts reported by the parent, based on the
parent’s date of transition to PFRS. This amendment is also applied to an associate or joint
venture that elects to apply paragraph D16(a) of PFRS 1.

The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after


January 1, 2022 with earlier adoption permitted.

o Amendments to PFRS 9, Financial Instruments, Fees in the ’10 per cent’ test for derecognition of
financial liabilities

The amendment clarifies the fees that an entity includes when assessing whether the terms of a
new or modified financial liability are substantially different from the terms of the original
financial liability. These fees include only those paid or received between the borrower and the
lender, including fees paid or received by either the borrower or lender on the other’s behalf. An
entity applies the amendment to financial liabilities that are modified or exchanged on or after
the beginning of the annual reporting period in which the entity first applies the amendment.

The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022
with earlier adoption permitted. The Group will apply the amendments to financial liabilities that
are modified or exchanged on or after the beginning of the annual reporting period in which the
entity first applies the amendment.

o Amendments to PAS 41, Agriculture, Taxation in fair value measurements

The amendment removes the requirement in paragraph 22 of PAS 41 that entities exclude cash
flows for taxation when measuring the fair value of assets within the scope of
PAS 41.

An entity applies the amendment prospectively to fair value measurements on or after the
beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after January 1, 2022 with earlier
adoption permitted. The amendments are not expected to have a material impact on the Group.

Effective beginning on or after January 1, 2023

 Amendments to PAS 1, Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current


The amendments clarify paragraphs 69 to 76 of PAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements, to
specify the requirements for classifying liabilities as current or non-current. The amendments clarify:
o What is meant by a right to defer settlement
o That a right to defer must exist at the end of the reporting period
o That classification is unaffected by the likelihood that an entity will exercise its deferral right
o That only if an embedded derivative in a convertible liability is itself an equity instrument
would the terms of a liability not impact its classification

The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023 and
must be applied retrospectively. The standard will affect the future classification of liabilities as
current or noncurrent when there are future deferral of settlement of the Group’s financial liabilities.

Page 38 of 54
 PFRS 17, Insurance Contracts
PFRS 17 is a comprehensive new accounting standard for insurance contracts covering recognition
and measurement, presentation and disclosure. Once effective, PFRS 17 will replace PFRS 4,
Insurance Contracts. This new standard on insurance contracts applies to all types of insurance
contracts (i.e., life, non-life, direct insurance and re-insurance), regardless of the type of entities that
issue them, as well as to certain guarantees and financial instruments with discretionary
participation features. A few scope exceptions will apply.

The overall objective of PFRS 17 is to provide an accounting model for insurance contracts that is
more useful and consistent for insurers. In contrast to the requirements in PFRS 4, which are largely
based on grandfathering previous local accounting policies, PFRS 17 provides a comprehensive
model for insurance contracts, covering all relevant accounting aspects. The core of PFRS 17 is the
general model, supplemented by:
 A specific adaptation for contracts with direct participation features (the variable fee approach)
 A simplified approach (the premium allocation approach) mainly for short-duration contracts

PFRS 17 is effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023, with comparative
figures required. Early application is permitted.

The Group is not engaged in the business of insurance; hence, this standard is not applicable to the
Group.

Deferred Effectivity

 Amendments to PFRS 10, Consolidated Financial Statements, and PAS 28, Sale or Contribution of
Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture
The amendments address the conflict between PFRS 10 and PAS 28 in dealing with the loss of
control of a subsidiary that is sold or contributed to an associate or joint venture. The
amendments clarify that a full gain or loss is recognized when a transfer to an associate or joint
venture involves a business as defined in PFRS 3. Any gain or loss resulting from the sale or
contribution of assets that does not constitute a business, however, is recognized only to the
extent of unrelated investors’ interests in the associate or joint venture.

On January 13, 2016, the Financial Reporting Standards Council deferred the original effective
date of January 1, 2016 of the said amendments until the International Accounting Standards
Board (IASB) completes its broader review of the research project on equity accounting that may
result in the simplification of accounting for such transactions and of other aspects of accounting
for associates and joint ventures.

The Group does not expect these amendments to have significant impact to the consolidated
financial statements because it does not currently have interests in associates and joint ventures.

 Deferral of Certain Provisions of PIC Q&A 2018-12, PFRS 15 Implementation Issues Affecting the
Real Estate Industry (as amended by PIC Q&As 2020-02 and 2020-04)

On February 14, 2018, the PIC issued PIC Q&A 2018-12 which provides guidance on some PFRS
15 implementation issues affecting the real estate industry. On October 25, 2018 and February
08, 2019, the Philippine Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued SEC MC No. 14-2018
and SEC MC No. 3-2019, respectively, providing relief to the real estate industry by deferring the
application of certain provisions of this PIC Q&A for a period of three years until December 31,
2020. On December 15, 2020, the Philippine SEC issued SEC MC No. 34-2020 which further
extended the deferral of certain provisions of this PIC Q&A until December 31, 2023.

Page 39 of 54
A summary of the PIC Q&A provisions covered by the SEC deferral and the related deferral
period follows:

Deferral Period
a. Assessing if the transaction price includes a Until December 31, 2023
significant financing component as discussed in
PIC Q&A 2018-12-D (amended by PIC Q&A 2020-
04)

b. Treatment of land in the determination of the POC Until December 31, 2023
discussed in PIC Q&A 2018-12-E

The SEC Memorandum Circulars also provided the mandatory disclosure requirements should an
entity decide to avail of any relief. Disclosures should include:

a. The accounting policies applied.


b. Discussion of the deferral of the subject implementation issues in the PIC Q&A.
c. Qualitative discussion of the impact on the financial statements had the concerned
application guidelines in the PIC Q&A been adopted.
d. Should any of the deferral options result into a change in accounting policy (e.g., when an
entity excludes land and/or uninstalled materials in the POC calculation under the previous
standard but opted to include such components under the relief provided by the circular),
such accounting change will have to be accounted for under PAS 8, i.e., retrospectively,
together with the corresponding required quantitative disclosures.

In November 2020, the PIC issued the following Q&As which provide additional guidance on the
real estate industry issues covered by the above SEC deferrals:
 PIC Q&A 2020-04, which provides additional guidance on determining whether the
transaction price includes a significant financing component

The Group availed of the SEC reliefs to defer the above specific provisions of PIC Q&A No. 2018-
12. Had these provisions been adopted, the Group assessed that the impact would have been as
follows:

 The mismatch between the POC of the real estate projects and right to an amount of
consideration based on the schedule of payments explicit in the contract to sell would constitute
a significant financing component. In case of the presence of significant financing component, the
guidance should have been applied retrospectively and would have resulted to restatement of
prior year financial statements. Adoption of this guidance would have impacted interest income,
interest expense, revenue from real estate sales, instalment contracts receivable, provision for
deferred income tax, deferred tax asset or liability for all years presented, and the opening
balance of retained earnings. Currently, any significant financing component arising from the
mismatch discussed above is not considered for revenue recognition purposes.

 The exclusion of land in the determination of POC would reduce the percentage of completion of
real estate projects resulting in a decrease in beginning retained earnings as well as a decrease in
the revenue from real estate sales in 2020.

The above would have impacted the cash flows from operations and cash flows from financing
activities for all years presented.

As prescribed by SEC MC No. 34-2020, for financial reporting periods beginning on or after
January 1, 2021, the availment of the above deferral will impact the Group’s financial reporting
during the period of deferral as follows:

Page 40 of 54
a. The financial statements are not considered to be in accordance with PFRS and should specify in
the “Basis of Preparation of the Financial Statements” section of the financial statements that the
accounting framework is:

PFRS, as modified by the application of the following financial reporting reliefs issued and
approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission in response to the COVID-19 pandemic:
1. Treatment of land in the determination of the percentage-of-completion; and
2. Assessing if the transaction price includes a significant financing component (as amended by
PIC Q&A 2020-04)

b. The Auditor’s report will:


i. reflect in the Opinion paragraph that the financial statements are prepared in accordance
with the compliance framework described in the notes to the financial statements; and
ii. include an Emphasis of Matter paragraph to draw attention to the basis of accounting that
has been used in the preparation of the financial statements.

Upon full adoption of the above deferred guidance, the accounting policies will have to be applied
using full retrospective approach following the guidance under PAS 8, Accounting Policies, Changes in
Accounting Estimates and Errors.

 Deferral of PIC Q&A 2018-14, Accounting for Cancellation of Real Estate Sales (as amended by PIC
Q&A 2020-05)

On June 27, 2018, PIC Q&A 2018-14 was issued providing guidance on accounting for cancellation of
real estate sales. Under SEC MC No. 3-2019, the adoption of PIC Q&A No. 2018-14 was deferred until
December 31, 2020. After the deferral period, real estate companies will adopt PIC Q&A No. 2018-14
and any subsequent amendments thereto retrospectively or as the SEC will later prescribe.

On November 11, 2020, PIC Q&A 2020-05 was issued which supersedes PIC Q&A 2018-14. This PIC
Q&A adds a new approach where the cancellation is accounted for as a modification of the contract (i.e.,
from non-cancellable to being cancellable). Under this approach, revenues and related costs previously
recognized shall be reversed in the period of cancellation and the inventory shall be reinstated at cost.
PIC Q&A 2020-05 will have to be applied prospectively from approval date of the Financial Reporting
Standards Council which was November 11, 2020.

The Group availed of the SEC relief to defer the adoption of this PIC Q&A until December 31, 2020.
Currently, the Group records the repossessed inventory at cost. The Group opted to implement
approach 3 in its accounting for sales cancellation.

 IFRIC Agenda Decision on Over Time Transfer of Constructed Goods (PAS 23, Borrowing Cost)

In March 2019, IFRIC published an Agenda Decision on whether borrowing costs can be capitalized
on real estate inventories that are under construction and for which the related revenue is/will be
recognized over time under paragraph 35(c) of IFRS 15 (PFRS 15). IFRIC concluded that borrowing
costs cannot be capitalized for such real estate inventories as they do not meet the definition of a
qualifying asset under Philippine Accounting Standards (PAS) 23, Borrowing Costs, considering that
these inventories are ready for their intended sale in their current condition.

The IFRIC Agenda Decision would change the Group’s current practice of capitalizing borrowing costs
on real estate projects with pre-selling activities.

On February 11, 2020, the Philippine SEC issued Memorandum Circular No. 4-2020, providing relief
to the Real Estate Industry by deferring the mandatory implementation of the above IFRIC Agenda
Decision until December 31, 2020. Further, on December 15, 2020, the Philippine SEC issued SEC MC
No. 34-2020, which extends the relief on the application of the IFRIC Agenda Decision provided to the
Real Estate Industry until December 31, 2023. Effective January 1, 2024, the Real Estate Industry will
adopt the IFRIC agenda decision and any subsequent amendments thereto retrospectively or as the
Page 41 of 54
SEC will later prescribe. A real estate company may opt not to avail of the deferral and instead
comply in full with the requirements of the IFRIC Agenda Decision.

The Group opted to avail of the relief as provided by the SEC. Had the Group adopted the IFRIC agenda
decision, borrowing costs capitalized to real estate inventories related to projects with pre-selling
activities should have been expensed out in the period incurred. This adjustment should have been
applied retrospectively and would have resulted in restatement of prior year financial statements.
Adoption of the IFRIC agenda decision would have impacted interest expense, cost of sales, provision
for deferred income tax, real estate inventories, deferred tax liability and the opening balance of
retained earnings. The above would have impacted the cash flows from operations and cash flows
from financing activities for all years presented.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

The Stockholders and the Board of Directors


Anchor Land Holdings, Inc.
11th Floor, L.V. Locsin Building
6752 Ayala Avenue corner Makati Avenue
Makati City

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Anchor Land Holdings, Inc. and its Subsidiaries
(the Group), which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as at December 31, 2020
and 2019, and the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes
in equity and consolidated statements of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 2020, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of
significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects,
the consolidated financial position of the Group as at December 31, 2020 and 2019, and its consolidated
financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 2020 in accordance with Philippine Financial Reporting Standards (PFRSs).

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with Philippine Standards on Auditing (PSAs). Our
responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit
of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in
accordance with the Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants in the Philippines (Code of Ethics)
together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the consolidated financial
statements in the Philippines, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with
these requirements and the Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is
sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our
audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the
context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion
thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. For each matter below, our
description of how our audit addressed the matter is provided in that context.

We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the
Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report, including in relation to these matters.
Accordingly, our audit included the performance of procedures designed to respond to our assessment of
the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements. The results of our audit

*SGVFSM006755*
A member firm of Ernst & Young Global Limited
-2-

procedures, including the procedures performed to address the matters below, provide the basis for our
audit opinion on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Real Estate Revenue Recognition

The Group’s revenue recognition process, policies and procedures are significant to our audit because
these involve application of significant judgment and estimation in the following areas:
(1) assessment of the probability that the entity will collect the consideration from the buyer; (2)
application of the output method as the measure of progress (percentage of completion or POC) in
determining real estate revenue; (3) determination of the actual costs incurred as cost of sales; and (4)
recognition of cost to obtain a contract.

In evaluating whether collectability of the amount of consideration is probable, the Group considers the
significance of the buyer’s initial payments in relation to the total contract price (or buyer’s equity).
Collectability is also assessed by considering factors such as past history with the buyer, and the pricing
of the property. Management regularly evaluates the historical sales cancellations and back-outs, after
considering the impact of the coronavirus pandemic, if it would still support its current threshold of
buyers’ equity before commencing revenue recognition.

In measuring the progress of its performance obligation over time, the Group uses the output method.
This method measures progress based on physical proportion of work done on the real estate project
which requires technical determination by the Group’s specialists (project engineers).

In determining the actual costs incurred to be recognized as cost of sales, the Group estimates costs
incurred on materials, labor and overhead which have not yet been billed by the contractor.

The Group identifies sales commission after contract inception as the cost of obtaining the contract. For
contracts which qualified for revenue recognition, the Group capitalizes the total sales commission due to
sales agent as cost to obtain contract and recognizes the related commission payable. The Group uses
POC method in amortizing sales commission consistent with the Group’s revenue recognition policy.

The disclosures related to the real estate revenue are included in Notes 2 and 3 to the consolidated
financial statements.

Audit Response

We obtained an understanding of the Group’s revenue recognition process.

For the buyers’ equity, we evaluated management’s basis of the buyer’s equity by comparing this to the
historical analysis of sales cancellations from buyers with accumulated payments above the collection
threshold. We also considered the impact of the coronavirus pandemic to the number of cancellations
during the year and checked whether the buyer’s equity would remain reasonable despite the trend. We
traced the analysis to supporting documents such as official receipts, deposit slips, and bank statements.

For the application of the output method, in determining real estate revenue, we obtained an
understanding of the Group’s processes for determining the POC, and performed tests of the relevant
controls. We obtained the certified POC reports prepared by the project engineers and assessed their

*SGVFSM006755*
A member firm of Ernst & Young Global Limited
-3-

competence and objectivity by reference to their qualifications, experience and reporting responsibilities.
For selected projects, we conducted ocular inspections, made relevant inquiries, including inquiries on
how the coronavirus pandemic affected the POC during the year, and obtained the supporting details of
POC reports showing the completion of the major activities of the project construction.

For the cost of sales, we obtained an understanding of the Group’s cost accumulation process and
performed tests of the relevant controls. For selected projects, we traced costs accumulated, including
those incurred but not yet billed costs, to supporting documents such as invoices and accomplishment
reports from contractors.

For the recognition of cost to obtain a contract, we obtained an understanding of the sales commission
process. For selected contracts, we agreed the basis for calculating the sales commission capitalized and
portion recognized in profit or loss, particularly (a) the percentage of commission due against contracts
with sales agents, (b) the total commissionable amount (e.g., net contract price) against the related
contract to sell, and, (c) the POC against the POC used in recognizing the related revenue from real estate
sales.

Adequacy of Allowance for Credit Losses on Trade Receivables from Real Estate Sales

The Group applies simplified approach in calculating expected credit loss (ECL). There is no allowance
for credit losses and no provision for credit losses on trade receivables from real estate sales as of and for
the year ended December 31, 2020. The use of ECL model is significant to our audit as it involves the
exercise of significant management judgment.

Key areas of judgment include: segmenting the Group’s credit risk exposures; determining the method to
estimate lifetime ECL; defining default; determining assumptions to be used in the ECL model such as
timing and amount of expected net recoveries from defaulted accounts; and incorporating forward-
looking information (called overlays), including the impact of coronavirus pandemic, in calculating ECL.

The disclosures in relation to allowance for credit losses using the ECL model are included in Notes 2 and
3 to the consolidated financial statements.

Audit Response

We obtained an understanding of the methodology and model used for the Group’s credit exposure and
assessed whether it has considered the requirements of PFRS 9 to reflect the time value of money and the
best available forward-looking information.

We (a) assessed the Group’s segmentation of its credit risk exposures based on homogeneity of credit risk
characteristics; (b) checked the methodology used in applying the simplified approach by evaluating the
key inputs, assumptions, and formulas used; (c) tested the definition of default against historical analysis
of accounts and credit risk management policies and practices in place, (d) tested loss given default by
inspecting historical recoveries including the timing, related direct costs, and write-offs; and (e) checked
the forward-looking information used for overlay through statistical test and corroboration using publicly
available information and our understanding of the Group’s lending portfolios and broader industry
knowledge, including the impact of coronavirus pandemic.

*SGVFSM006755*

Further, we checked the data used in the ECL model, such as the historical analysis of defaults and
cancellations by tracing these to the real estate sales worksheets per project and supporting documents
such as notice of cancellations and schedule of payments. We also checked management’s assumption on
the timing of recoveries by tracing the subsequent resale of cancelled units to supporting documents. We
recalculated the net cash flows on a sample basis.

Recoverability of Hotel Property

In view of the continuing community quarantine being implemented due to the coronavirus pandemic, the
Group’s hotel segment continues to be adversely affected by travel restrictions and delay in the
construction activities. While the hotel property of the Group is still under construction as of
December 31, 2020, the impact of the coronavirus pandemic is still expected to continue even after the
completion of the construction as travel and mobility restrictions, social distancing and stay-at-home
orders, among other measures, are still being implemented. These events and conditions are impairment
indicators requiring the assessment of the recoverable amount of the hotel property, which involves
significant judgment, estimation and assumptions about occupancy rates, average room rates, as well as
external inputs such as discount rate. Hence, the review of such impairment assessment is a key audit
matter in our audit.

The disclosures in relation to the recoverability of hotel property are included in Notes 2 and 3 to the
consolidated financial statements.

Audit Response

We obtained the management’s impairment assessment and evaluated the assumptions used in the
forecasted cash flows. We checked the status of the construction of the hotel through an ocular
inspection. We tested the assumptions used in the projection by comparing the occupancy rates and room
rates against market data, taking into consideration the impact associated to the coronavirus pandemic.
We tested the parameters used in the determination of the discount rate against market data. We also
tested the sensitivity of the present value of discounted cash flows to changes in assumptions used. We
also reviewed the Group’s disclosures on the determination of the recoverable amount of the hotel
property.

Other Information

Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information
included in the SEC Form 20-IS (Definitive Information Statement), SEC Form 17-A and Annual Report
for the year ended December 31, 2020, but does not include the consolidated financial statements and our
auditor’s report thereon. The SEC Form 20-IS (Definitive Information Statement), SEC Form 17-A and
Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2020 are expected to be made available to us after the
date of this auditor’s report.

Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we will not
express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the
other information identified above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether the other
information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge
obtained in the audits, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated
Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial
statements in accordance with PFRSs, and for such internal control as management determines is
necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group’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 management either intends to liquidate the Group or to
cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a
whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s 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 PSAs 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

*SGVFSM006755*
A member firm of Ernst & Young Global Limited
-6-

aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the
basis of these consolidated financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with PSAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain
professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

 Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements,
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 internal control.

 Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting
estimates and related disclosures made by management.

 Conclude on the appropriateness of management’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 Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If
we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s
report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements 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 auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease
to continue as a going concern.

 Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements,
including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements 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 consolidated financial statements.
We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit. We remain solely
responsible for our audit opinion.

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

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that
were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and
are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s 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.

The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor’s report is Jennifer D. Ticlao.

Authorization for the Issuance of the Financial Statements


The consolidated financial statements of the Group as at December 31, 2020 and 2019, and for each
of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2020 were approved and authorized for issuance
by the Board of Directors (BOD) on April 7, 2021.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Preparation
The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared using the historical cost
basis. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Philippine Peso (P
=), the Parent
Company’s functional currency and presentation currency under Philippine Financial Reporting
Standards (PFRS). All amounts are rounded to the nearest peso, except when otherwise indicated.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the going concern
assumption. While the government eases restrictions of business activities to revive economic growth,
the impact of COVID-19 may continue to evolve giving inherent uncertainties on businesses.

Statement of Compliance
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in compliance
with PFRS, which include the availment of the relief granted by the SEC under Memorandum
Circular Nos. 14-2018 and 3-2019, to defer the implementation of the following accounting
pronouncements until December 31, 2020. These accounting pronouncements address the issues of
PFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers affecting the real estate industry:

Deferral of the following provisions of the Philippine Interpretations Committee (PIC) Q&A 2018-12,
PFRS 15 Implementation Issues Affecting the Real Estate Industry

a. Exclusion of land in the determination of percentage of completion (POC) discussed in PIC Q&A
No. 2018-12-E
b. Assessing if the transaction price includes significant financing component (as amended by PIC
Q&A No. 2020-04)

Deferral of the adoption of PIC Q&A No. 2018-14: PFRS 15 – Accounting for Cancellation of Real
Estate Sales (as amended by PIC Q&A 2020-05)

Deferral of the Implementation of IFRS Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC") Agenda Decision on


Over Time Transfer of Constructed Goods [Philippine Accounting Standards (PAS) 23-Borrowing
Cost] For Real Estate Industry

*SGVFSM006755*
-3-

In December 2020, the SEC issued Memorandum Circular No. 34-2020, allowing the further deferral
of the adoption of provisions (a) and (b) above of PIC Q&A 2018-12 and the IFRIC Agenda
Discussion on Borrowing Cost, for another 3 years or until December 31, 2023.

The details and the impact of the adoption of the above financial reporting reliefs are discussed in the
Adoption of New and Amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations section of Note 2.

PFRSs include Philippine Financial Reporting Standards, Philippine Accounting Standards and
Interpretations issued by the Philippine Interpretations Committee (PIC).

Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Parent Company and
its subsidiaries, entities over which the Parent Company has control.

Specifically, the Parent Company controls an investee if and only if the Parent Company has all the
following:

 Power over the investee (i.e., existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant
activities of the investee);
 Exposure or rights to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and,
 The ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns.

When the Parent Company has less than a majority of the voting rights of an investee, the Parent
Company considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over the
investee, including:

 Any contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee;
 Rights arising from other contractual arrangements; and,
 The Parent Company’s voting rights and potential voting rights.

The Parent Company reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances
indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control.

Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date of acquisition, being the date on which the Parent
Company obtains control, and continue to be consolidated until the date when such control ceases.

Specifically, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the period are
included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income from the date the Parent Company
gains control or until the date when the Parent Company ceases to control the subsidiary.

The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the Parent
Company, using consistent accounting policies. All intra-group balances, transactions and gains and
losses resulting from intra-group transactions and dividends are eliminated in full. Profit or loss and
each component of other comprehensive income (OCI) are attributed to the equity holders of the
Parent Company and to the non-controlling interests (NCI), even if this results in the non-controlling
interests having a deficit balance.

*SGVFSM006755*
-4-

A change in the ownership interest in a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is accounted for as an
equity transaction. When the Parent Company loses control over a subsidiary, it:

 Derecognizes the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary


 Derecognizes the carrying amount of any NCI
 Derecognizes the cumulative translation differences recorded in equity
 Recognizes the fair value of the consideration received
 Recognizes the fair value of any investment retained
 Recognizes any surplus or deficit in profit or loss
 Recognizes the Parent Company’s share of components previously recognized in OCI to profit or
loss or retained earnings, as appropriate, as would be required if the Parent Company has directly
disposed of the related assets or liabilities.

Non-controlling Interests
NCI represent the portion of income and expense and net assets in subsidiaries that are not held by the
Parent Company and are presented separately in the consolidated statements of comprehensive
income and within equity in the consolidated statements of financial position, separate from the
equity attributable to the equity holders of the Parent Company.

Reclassification
The consolidated financial statements provide comparative information in respect of the previous
period. In 2020, the Group reclassified the noncurrent portion of Input VAT from other current assets
amounting to =P65.43 million as of December 31, 2019 (see Note 10). As a result, the balance of the
current portion of Input VAT as at December 31, 2019 was adjusted to = P462.13 million (see Note 7).

As the reclassification had no significant impact on the Group’s current and noncurrent assets, total
liabilities and total equity as at January 1, 2020, management believes that the presentation of the
consolidated statements of financial position as at beginning of the earliest period presented is not
necessary. The reclassification did not also impact the consolidated statement of comprehensive
income and consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2019, including
the basic/diluted earnings per share of the Group.

Changes in Accounting Policies and Disclosures


The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the Group’s financial statements are consistent
with those of the previous financial years except for the following new and amended PFRSs which
were adopted beginning January 1, 2020. The adoption of these pronouncements did not have any
significant impact to the Group’s consolidated financial position and performance unless otherwise
indicated.

 Amendments to PFRS 3, Definition of a Business


The amendments to PFRS 3 clarify the minimum requirements to be a business, remove the
assessment of a market participant’s ability to replace missing elements, and narrow the
definition of outputs. The amendments also add guidance to assess whether an acquired process
is substantive and add illustrative examples. An optional fair value concentration test is
introduced which permits a simplified assessment of whether an acquired set of activities and
assets is not a business.

These amendments will apply on future business combinations of the Group.

*SGVFSM006755*
-5-

 Amendments to PFRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosures and PFRS 9, Financial Instruments


Interest Rate Benchmark Reform
The amendments to PFRS 9 provide a number of reliefs, which apply to all hedging relationships
that are directly affected by the interest rate benchmark reform. A hedging relationship is affected
if the reform gives rise to uncertainties about the timing and or amount of benchmark-based cash
flows of the hedged item or the hedging instrument.

These amendments had no significant impact to the Group’s consolidated financial statements.

 Amendments to PAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements, and PAS 8, Accounting Policies,


Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, Definition of Material
The amendments provide a new definition of material that states “information is material if
omitting, misstating or obscuring it could reasonably be expected to influence decisions that the
primary users of general purpose financial statements make on the basis of those financial
statements, which provide financial information about a specific reporting entity.”

The amendments clarify that materiality will depend on the nature or magnitude of information,
either individually or in combination with other information, in the context of the financial
statements. A misstatement of information is material if it could reasonably be expected to
influence decisions made by the primary users.

 Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting issued on March 29, 2018


The Conceptual Framework is not a standard, and none of the concepts contained therein override
the concepts or requirements in any standard. The purpose of the Conceptual Framework is to
assist the standard-setters in developing standards, to help preparers develop consistent
accounting policies where there is no applicable standard in place and to assist all parties to
understand and interpret the standards.

The revised Conceptual Framework includes new concepts, provides updated definitions and
recognition criteria for assets and liabilities and clarifies some important concepts.

 Amendments to PFRS 16, COVID-19-related Rent Concessions


The amendments to PFRS 16 provide practical relief to the lessees in accounting for rent
concessions arising as a direct consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic. A lessee may elect not
to assess whether a rent concession is a lease modification if all of the following conditions are
met:
 The rent concession is a direct consequence of COVID-19;
 The change in lease payments results in a revised lease consideration that is substantially the
same as, or less than, the lease consideration immediately preceding the change;
 Any reduction in lease payments affects only payments originally due on or before
June 30, 2021; and
 There is no substantive change to other terms and conditions of the lease.

A lessee that applies this practical expedient will account for any change in lease payments
resulting from the COVID-19 related rent concession in the same way it would account for a
change that is not a lease modification, i.e., as a variable lease payment.

The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after June 1, 2020.

The amendments did not have a significant impact to the Group as there are no rent concessions
granted to the Group as a lessee.

*SGVFSM006755*
-6-

 Adoption of PIC Q&A 2020-03, Q&A No. 2018-12-D: STEP 3 - On the Accounting of the
Difference When the Percentage of Completion is Ahead of the Buyer’s Payment.
PIC Q&A 2020-03 was issued by the PIC on September 30, 2020 aims to provide an additional
option to the preparers of financial statements to present as receivables, the difference between
the POC and the buyer’s payment, with the POC being ahead. The adoption of this PIC Q&A did
not impact the consolidated financial statements of the Group since it has previously adopted the
additional guidance issued by the PIC in September 2019.

Standards and Interpretation Issued but Not yet Effective


Pronouncements issued but not yet effective are listed below. Unless otherwise indicated, the Group
does not expect the future adoption of these pronouncements to have a significant impact on its
consolidated financial statements. The Group intends to adopt the following pronouncements when
they become effective.

Effective beginning on or after January 1, 2021

 Amendments to PFRS 9, PFRS 7, PFRS 4 and PFRS 16, Interest Rate Benchmark Reform –
Phase 2
The amendments provide the following temporary reliefs which address the financial reporting
effects when an interbank offered rate (IBOR) is replaced with an alternative nearly risk-free
interest rate (RFR):
 Practical expedient for changes in the basis for determining the contractual cash flows as a
result of IBOR reform
 Relief from discontinuing hedging relationships
 Relief from the separately identifiable requirement when an RFR instrument is designated as
a hedge of a risk component

The Group shall also disclose information about:


 The about the nature and extent of risks to which the entity is exposed arising from financial
instruments subject to IBOR reform, and how the entity manages those risks; and
 Their progress in completing the transition to alternative benchmark rates, and how the entity
is managing that transition

The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2021
and apply retrospectively, however, the Group is not required to restate prior periods.

Effective beginning on or after January 1, 2022

 Amendments to PFRS 3, Reference to the Conceptual Framework

The amendments are intended to replace a reference to the Framework for the Preparation and
Presentation of Financial Statements, issued in 1989, with a reference to the Conceptual
Framework for Financial Reporting issued in March 2018 without significantly changing its
requirements. The amendments added an exception to the recognition principle of PFRS 3,
Business Combinations to avoid the issue of potential ‘day 2’gains or losses arising for liabilities
and contingent liabilities that would be within the scope of PAS 37, Provisions, Contingent
Liabilities and Contingent Assets or Philippine-IFRIC 21, Levies, if incurred separately.

At the same time, the amendments add a new paragraph to PFRS 3 to clarify that contingent
assets do not qualify for recognition at the acquisition date.

*SGVFSM006755*
-7-

The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022
and apply prospectively.

 Amendments to PAS 16, Plant and Equipment: Proceeds before Intended Use

The amendments prohibit entities deducting from the cost of an item of property, plant and
equipment, any proceeds from selling items produced while bringing that asset to the location and
condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.
Instead, an entity recognizes the proceeds from selling such items, and the costs of producing
those items, in profit or loss.

The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022
and must be applied retrospectively to items of property, plant and equipment made available for
use on or after the beginning of the earliest period presented when the entity first applies the
amendment.

 Amendments to PAS 37, Onerous Contracts – Costs of Fulfilling a Contract

The amendments specify which costs an entity needs to include when assessing whether a
contract is onerous or loss-making. The amendments apply a “directly related cost approach”.
The costs that relate directly to a contract to provide goods or services include both incremental
costs and an allocation of costs directly related to contract activities. General and administrative
costs do not relate directly to a contract and are excluded unless they are explicitly chargeable to
the counterparty under the contract.

The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022.
The Group will apply these amendments to contracts for which it has not yet fulfilled all its
obligations at the beginning of the annual reporting period in which it first applies the
amendments.

 Annual Improvements to PFRSs 2018-2020 Cycle

 Amendments to PFRS 1, First-time Adoption of Philippines Financial Reporting Standards,


Subsidiary as a first-time adopter

The amendment permits a subsidiary that elects to apply paragraph D16(a) of PFRS 1 to
measure cumulative translation differences using the amounts reported by the parent, based
on the parent’s date of transition to PFRS. This amendment is also applied to an associate or
joint venture that elects to apply paragraph D16(a) of PFRS 1.

The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after


January 1, 2022 with earlier adoption permitted.

 Amendments to PFRS 9, Financial Instruments, Fees in the ’10 per cent’ test for
derecognition of financial liabilities

The amendment clarifies the fees that an entity includes when assessing whether the terms of
a new or modified financial liability are substantially different from the terms of the original
financial liability. These fees include only those paid or received between the borrower and
the lender, including fees paid or received by either the borrower or lender on the other’s
behalf. An entity applies the amendment to financial liabilities that are modified or

*SGVFSM006755*
-8-

exchanged on or after the beginning of the annual reporting period in which the entity first
applies the amendment.

The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after


January 1, 2022 with earlier adoption permitted. The Group will apply the amendments to
financial liabilities that are modified or exchanged on or after the beginning of the annual
reporting period in which the entity first applies the amendment.

 Amendments to PAS 41, Agriculture, Taxation in fair value measurements

The amendment removes the requirement in paragraph 22 of PAS 41 that entities exclude
cash flows for taxation when measuring the fair value of assets within the scope of
PAS 41.

An entity applies the amendment prospectively to fair value measurements on or after the
beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after January 1, 2022 with
earlier adoption permitted. The amendments are not expected to have a material impact on the
Group.

Effective beginning on or after January 1, 2023

 Amendments to PAS 1, Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current


The amendments clarify paragraphs 69 to 76 of PAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements, to
specify the requirements for classifying liabilities as current or non-current. The amendments
clarify:
 What is meant by a right to defer settlement
 That a right to defer must exist at the end of the reporting period
 That classification is unaffected by the likelihood that an entity will exercise its deferral right
 That only if an embedded derivative in a convertible liability is itself an equity instrument
would the terms of a liability not impact its classification

The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023
and must be applied retrospectively. The standard will affect the future classification of liabilities
as current or noncurrent when there are future deferral of settlement of the Group’s financial
liabilities.

Deferred Effectivity

 Amendments to PFRS 10, Consolidated Financial Statements, and PAS 28, Sale or Contribution
of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture
The amendments address the conflict between PFRS 10 and PAS 28 in dealing with the loss of
control of a subsidiary that is sold or contributed to an associate or joint venture. The
amendments clarify that a full gain or loss is recognized when a transfer to an associate or joint
venture involves a business as defined in PFRS 3. Any gain or loss resulting from the sale or
contribution of assets that does not constitute a business, however, is recognized only to the
extent of unrelated investors’ interests in the associate or joint venture.

On January 13, 2016, the Financial Reporting Standards Council deferred the original effective
date of January 1, 2016 of the said amendments until the International Accounting Standards
Board (IASB) completes its broader review of the research project on equity accounting that may

*SGVFSM006755*
-9-

result in the simplification of accounting for such transactions and of other aspects of accounting
for associates and joint ventures.

The Group does not expect these amendments to have significant impact to the consolidated
financial statements because it does not currently have interests in associates and joint ventures.

 Deferral of Certain Provisions of PIC Q&A 2018-12, PFRS 15 Implementation Issues Affecting
the Real Estate Industry (as amended by PIC Q&As 2020-02 and 2020-04)

On February 14, 2018, the PIC issued PIC Q&A 2018-12 which provides guidance on some
PFRS 15 implementation issues affecting the real estate industry. On October 25, 2018 and
February 08, 2019, the Philippine Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued SEC MC
No. 14-2018 and SEC MC No. 3-2019, respectively, providing relief to the real estate industry by
deferring the application of certain provisions of this PIC Q&A for a period of three years until
December 31, 2020. On December 15, 2020, the Philippine SEC issued SEC MC No. 34-2020
which further extended the deferral of certain provisions of this PIC Q&A until
December 31, 2023. A summary of the PIC Q&A provisions covered by the SEC deferral and
the related deferral period follows:

Deferral Period

b. Treatment of land in the determination of the Until December 31, 2023


POC discussed in PIC Q&A 2018-12-E

The SEC Memorandum Circulars also provided the mandatory disclosure requirements should an
entity decide to avail of any relief. Disclosures should include:

a. The accounting policies applied.


b. Discussion of the deferral of the subject implementation issues in the PIC Q&A.
c. Qualitative discussion of the impact on the financial statements had the concerned application
guidelines in the PIC Q&A been adopted.
d. Should any of the deferral options result into a change in accounting policy (e.g., when an
entity excludes land and/or uninstalled materials in the POC calculation under the previous
standard but opted to include such components under the relief provided by the circular),
such accounting change will have to be accounted for under PAS 8, i.e., retrospectively,
together with the corresponding required quantitative disclosures.

In November 2020, the PIC issued PIC Q&As 2020-04 which provides additional guidance on
determining whether the transaction price includes a significant financing component.

*SGVFSM006755*
- 10 -

The Group availed of the SEC reliefs to defer the above specific provisions of PIC Q&A
No. 2018-12. Had these provisions been adopted, the Group assessed that the impact would have
been as follows:

 The mismatch between the POC of the real estate projects and right to an amount of consideration
based on the schedule of payments explicit in the contract to sell would constitute a significant
financing component. In case of the presence of significant financing component, the guidance
should have been applied retrospectively and would have resulted to restatement of prior year
financial statements. Adoption of this guidance would have impacted interest income, interest
expense, revenue from real estate sales, instalment contracts receivable, provision for deferred
income tax, deferred tax asset or liability for all years presented, and the opening balance of
retained earnings. Currently, any significant financing component arising from the mismatch
discussed above is not considered for revenue recognition purposes.

 The exclusion of land in the determination of POC would reduce the percentage of completion of
real estate projects resulting in a decrease in beginning retained earnings as well as a decrease in
the revenue from real estate sales in 2020.

The above would have impacted the cash flows from operations and cash flows from financing
activities for all years presented.

As prescribed by SEC MC No. 34-2020, for financial reporting periods beginning on or after
January 1, 2021, the availment of the above deferral will impact the Group’s financial reporting
during the period of deferral as follows:

a. The financial statements are not considered to be in accordance with PFRS and should specify in
the “Basis of Preparation of the Financial Statements” section of the financial statements that the
accounting framework is:

PFRS, as modified by the application of the following financial reporting reliefs issued and
approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission in response to the COVID-19 pandemic:
1. Treatment of land in the determination of the percentage-of-completion; and
2. Assessing if the transaction price includes a significant financing component (as amended by
PIC Q&A 2020-04)

b. The Auditor’s report will:


i. reflect in the Opinion paragraph that the financial statements are prepared in accordance with
the compliance framework described in the notes to the financial statements; and
ii. include an Emphasis of Matter paragraph to draw attention to the basis of accounting that has
been used in the preparation of the financial statements.

Upon full adoption of the above deferred guidance, the accounting policies will have to be applied
using full retrospective approach following the guidance under PAS 8, Accounting Policies, Changes
in Accounting Estimates and Errors.

 Deferral of PIC Q&A 2018-14, Accounting for Cancellation of Real Estate Sales (as amended by PIC
Q&A 2020-05)

On June 27, 2018, PIC Q&A 2018-14 was issued providing guidance on accounting for cancellation of
real estate sales. Under SEC MC No. 3-2019, the adoption of PIC Q&A No. 2018-14 was deferred until

*SGVFSM006755*
- 11 -

December 31, 2020. After the deferral period, real estate companies will adopt PIC Q&A No. 2018-14
and any subsequent amendments thereto retrospectively or as the SEC will later prescribe.

On November 11, 2020, PIC Q&A 2020-05 was issued which supersedes PIC Q&A 2018-14. This PIC
Q&A adds a new approach where the cancellation is accounted for as a modification of the contract
(i.e., from non-cancellable to being cancellable). Under this approach, revenues and related costs
previously recognized shall be reversed in the period of cancellation and the inventory shall be
reinstated at cost. PIC Q&A 2020-05 will have to be applied prospectively from approval date of the
Financial Reporting Standards Council which was November 11, 2020.

The Group availed of the SEC relief to defer the adoption of this PIC Q&A until December 31, 2020.
Currently, the Group records the repossessed inventory at cost. The Group is still evaluating the
approach to be availed among the existing options. Had the relief not been adopted and the current
practice would be different from the approach to be implemented, this could have impacted the
recording of revenue, cost of sales, valuation of repossessed inventory and gain or loss from
repossession in 2020.

 IFRIC Agenda Decision on Over Time Transfer of Constructed Goods (PAS 23, Borrowing Cost)

In March 2019, IFRIC published an Agenda Decision on whether borrowing costs can be capitalized
on real estate inventories that are under construction and for which the related revenue is/will be
recognized over time under paragraph 35(c) of IFRS 15 (PFRS 15). IFRIC concluded that borrowing
costs cannot be capitalized for such real estate inventories as they do not meet the definition of a
qualifying asset under Philippine Accounting Standards (PAS) 23, Borrowing Costs, considering that
these inventories are ready for their intended sale in their current condition.

The IFRIC Agenda Decision would change the Group’s current practice of capitalizing borrowing costs
on real estate projects with pre-selling activities.

On February 11, 2020, the Philippine SEC issued Memorandum Circular No. 4-2020, providing relief
to the Real Estate Industry by deferring the mandatory implementation of the above IFRIC Agenda
Decision until December 31, 2020. Further, on December 15, 2020, the Philippine SEC issued SEC
MC No. 34-2020, which extends the relief on the application of the IFRIC Agenda Decision provided
to the Real Estate Industry until December 31, 2023. Effective January 1, 2024, the Real Estate
Industry will adopt the IFRIC agenda decision and any subsequent amendments thereto
retrospectively or as the SEC will later prescribe. A real estate company may opt not to avail of the
deferral and instead comply in full with the requirements of the IFRIC Agenda Decision.

The Group opted to avail of the relief as provided by the SEC. Had the Group adopted the IFRIC
agenda decision, borrowing costs capitalized to real estate inventories related to projects with pre-selling
activities should have been expensed out in the period incurred. This adjustment should have been
applied retrospectively and would have resulted in restatement of prior year financial statements.
Adoption of the IFRIC agenda decision would have impacted interest expense, cost of sales, provision
for deferred income tax, real estate inventories, deferred tax liability and the opening balance of retained
earnings. The above would have impacted the cash flows from operations and cash flows from
financing activities for all years presented.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


The following accounting policies were applied in the preparation of the Group’s consolidated
financial statements:

Current and Noncurrent Classification


The Group presents assets and liabilities in the consolidated statements of financial position based on
current or noncurrent classification.
An asset is classified as current when it is:
 expected to be realized or intended to be sold or consumed in the normal operating cycle;
 held primarily for the purpose of trading;
 expected to be realized within 12 months from the reporting date; or,
 cash and cash equivalents, unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for
at least within 12 months from the reporting date.

A liability is classified as current when:


 it is expected to be settled within the normal operating cycle;
 it is held primarily for the purpose of trading;
 it is due to be settled within 12 months from the reporting date; or,
 there is no unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months from the
reporting date.

The Group classifies all other assets and liabilities as noncurrent.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as noncurrent assets and liabilities.

Cash and Cash Equivalents


Cash includes cash on hand and in banks. Cash in banks are stated at face amount and earn interest at
the prevailing bank deposit rates. Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments that are
readily convertible to known amounts of cash with original maturities of three months or less and that
are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

Financial Instruments
Date of recognition
The Group recognizes a financial asset or a liability in the consolidated statements of financial
position when it becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Purchases or sales
of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame established by regulation or
convention in the marketplace are recognized on the settlement date.

a. Financial assets
Initial recognition and measurement
Financial assets are classified, at initial recognition, as financial asset at amortized cost, fair value
through OCI (FVTOCI) and fair value through profit of loss (FVTPL).
The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset’s
contractual cash flow characteristics and the Group’s business model for managing them. With
the exception of trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component, the
Group initially measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not
at FVTPL, transaction costs. Trade receivables, except for installment contract receivables, are
measured at the transaction price determined under PFRS 15. Refer to the accounting policies on
revenue from contracts with customers.

*SGVFSM006755*
- 13 -

In order for a financial asset to be classified and measured at amortized cost or FVTOCI, it needs
to give rise to cash flows that are ‘solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI)’ on the
principal amount outstanding. This assessment is referred to as the SPPI test and is performed at
an instrument level.

Day 1’ difference
Where the transaction price in a non-active market is different from the fair value from other
observable current market transactions of the same instrument or based on a valuation technique
whose variables include only data from an observable market, the Group recognizes the
difference between the transaction price and fair value (‘Day 1’ difference) in profit or loss unless
it qualifies for recognition as some other type of asset and liability. In cases where inputs to the
valuation technique are not observable, the difference between the transaction price and model
value is only recognized in profit or loss when the inputs become observable or when the
instrument is derecognized. For each transaction, the Group determines the appropriate method
of recognizing the ‘Day 1’ difference amount.

Subsequent measurement
For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in four categories:
 Financial assets at amortized cost (debt instruments);
 Financial assets at FVTOCI with recycling of cumulative gains and losses (debt instruments);
 Financial assets FVTOCI with no recycling of cumulative gains and losses upon
derecognition (equity instruments); and
 Financial assets at FVTPL.

Financial assets at amortized cost


This category is the most relevant to the Group. The Group measures financial assets at
amortised cost if both of the following conditions are met:
 The financial asset is held within a business model with the objective to hold financial assets
in order to collect contractual cash flows; and
 The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are
SPPI on the principal amount outstanding.

Financial assets at amortized cost are subsequently measured using the effective interest rate
(EIR) method and are subject to impairment. Gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss
when the asset is derecognized, modified or impaired.

The Group’s financial assets at amortized cost include cash and cash equivalents, trade
receivables from real estate sales which are included in the installment contracts receivable, rental
receivable, due from condominium associations, other receivables, utility and security deposits
and construction bond deposits.

Derecognition
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar
financial assets) is primarily derecognized (i.e., removed from the Group’s consolidated
statements of financial position) when:
 The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired; or
 The Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an
obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under
a ‘pass-through’ arrangement; and either (a) the Group has transferred substantially all the
risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) the Group has neither transferred nor retained
substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset

*SGVFSM006755*
- 14 -

When the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a
pass-through arrangement, it evaluates if, and to what extent, it has retained the risks and rewards
of ownership. When it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and
rewards of the asset, nor transferred control of the asset, the Group continues to recognize the
transferred asset to the extent of its continuing involvement. In that case, the Group also
recognizes an associated liability. The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured
on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the Group has retained.

Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured
at the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of
consideration that the Group could be required to repay.

Impairment of financial assets


The Group recognizes an allowance for expected credit losses (ECLs) for all debt instruments not
held at FVTPL. ECLs are based on the difference between the contractual cash flows due in
accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Group expects to receive, discounted
at an approximation of the original EIR. The expected cash flows will include cash flows from
the sale of collateral held or other credit enhancements that are integral to the contractual terms.

For trade receivables from real estate sales, the Group applies a simplified approach in calculating
ECLs. Therefore, the Group does not track changes in credit risk, but instead recognizes a loss
allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date. The Group uses the vintage analysis
that is based on historical credit loss experience, adjusted for forward-looking factors specific to
the debtors and the economic environment.

For other financial assets such as rental receivables, due from condominium associations, other
receivables and deposits, ECLs are recognized in two stages. For credit exposures for which
there has not been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, ECLs are provided
for credit losses that result from default events that are possible within the next 12-months (a 12-
month ECL). For those credit exposures for which there has been a significant increase in credit
risk since initial recognition, a loss allowance is required for credit losses expected over the
remaining life of the exposure, irrespective of the timing of the default (a lifetime ECL).

For cash and cash equivalents, the Group applies the low credit risk simplification. The
probability of default and loss given defaults are publicly available and are considered to be low
credit risk investments. It is the Group’s policy to measure ECLs on such instruments on a
12-month basis. However, when there has been a significant increase in credit risk since
origination, the allowance will be based on the lifetime ECL. The Group uses external credit
ratings of the banks to assess whether the financial instrument has significantly increased in credit
risk and to estimate ECLs.

The key inputs in the model include the Group’s definition of default and historical data of five
years for the origination, maturity date and default date. The Group considers a financial asset in
default when contractual payment are 90 days past due. However, in certain cases, the Group
may also consider a financial asset to be in default when internal or external information indicates
that the Group is unlikely to receive the outstanding contractual amounts in full before taking into
account any credit enhancements held by the Group.

A financial asset is written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovering the
contractual cash flows.

*SGVFSM006755*
- 15 -

b. Financial liabilities
Initial recognition and measurement
Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at FVTPL, loans
and borrowings, payables, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective
hedge, as appropriate.

All financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and
borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.

The Group’s financial liabilities include “Accounts and other payables” (except “Other taxes
payable”) and “Loans payable” and other liabilities that meet the above definition (other than
liabilities covered by other accounting standards).

Subsequent measurement
The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, as described below:

Loans and borrowings


This is the category most relevant to the Group. After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans
and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the EIR method. Gains and
losses are recognized in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognized as well as through the
EIR amortization process.

Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and
fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortization is included as finance
costs in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

This category generally applies to accounts and other payables (excluding other taxes and
statutory payables) and loans payable.

Derecognition
A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or
cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same
lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially
modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability
and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is
recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

c. Offsetting financial instruments


Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the consolidated
statements of financial position, if, and only if, there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset
the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and
settle the liability simultaneously.

Real Estate for Development and Sale


Real estate for development and sale is constructed for sale in the ordinary course of business, rather
than to be held for rental or capital appreciation, are held as inventory and are measured at the lower
of cost or net realizable value (NRV). NRV is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of
business, less estimated costs to complete and estimated costs to sell.

*SGVFSM006755*
- 16 -

Cost includes the purchase price of land and those costs incurred for the development and
improvement of the properties such as amounts paid to contractors, capitalized borrowing costs,
planning and design costs, costs of site preparation, professional fees for legal services, property
transfer taxes, construction overheads and other related costs.

Advances to Contractors and Suppliers and Retention Payable


Amounts paid to contractors and suppliers in advance are not part of real estate for development and
sale but presented as “Advances to contractors and suppliers” under “Other current assets” and “Other
noncurrent assets” in the consolidated statements of financial position.

Advances to contractors and suppliers are classified based on the actual realization of such advances
based on the determined usage/realization of the asset to which it is intended for (e.g. inventory,
investment property).

Portion of the contractors’ progress billings which are withheld by the Group are presented as
“Retention payable” under “Accounts and other payables” in the consolidated statements of financial
position. These serve as security from the contractor should there be defects in the project and will be
released after the satisfactory completion of the contractors’ work.

Creditable Withholding Tax


Creditable withholding tax pertains to the amounts withheld from income derived from real estate
sales and leasing activities which can be applied against income tax payable.

Value-added Tax (VAT)


Revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities are recognized net of the amount of VAT, if applicable.

When VAT from sales of goods and/or services (output VAT) exceeds VAT passed on from
purchases of goods or services (input VAT), the excess is recognized as payable in the consolidated
statements of financial position. When VAT passed on from purchases of goods or services (input
VAT) exceeds VAT from sales of goods and/or services (output VAT), the excess is recognized as an
asset in the consolidated statements of financial position to the extent of the recoverable amount.

Prepaid Expenses
Prepaid expenses are carried at cost less the amortized portion. These typically comprise
prepayments of rent, insurance premiums and real property taxes. These also include the deferred
portion of commissions paid to sales or marketing agents that are yet to be charged to the period the
related revenue is recognized.

Deposits on Real Estate Properties


Deposits on real estate properties represent the Group’s advance payments to real estate property
owners for the acquisition of real estate properties. Once the sale is consummated, these deposits will
be applied against the selling price of the real estate property acquired. Deposits on real estate
properties are classified as current or noncurrent based on the realization of such deposits determined
with reference to the usage of the asset to which it is intended for (e.g. real estate for development
and sale, investment property or property and equipment).

Property and Equipment


The Group’s property and equipment consist of hotel property that is under construction, leasehold
improvements, office equipment, furniture and fixtures, transportation equipment and right-of-use
assets that do not qualify as investment properties.

*SGVFSM006755*
- 17 -

Property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization, and any
impairment in value.

The initial cost of property and equipment consists of its purchase price, including import duties,
taxes and any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to its working condition and location for
its intended use, including capitalized borrowing cost. When significant parts of property and
equipment are required to be replaced in intervals, the Group recognizes such parts as individual
assets with specific useful lives and depreciation. Likewise, when a major inspection is performed,
its cost is recognized in the carrying amount of the equipment as a replacement if the recognition
criteria are satisfied. All other repair and maintenance costs are recognized in profit or loss as
incurred.

Effective January 1, 2019, it is the Group’s policy to classify right-of-use assets as part of property
and equipment. Prior to that date, all of the Company’s leases are accounted for as operating leases in
accordance with PAS 17, hence, not recorded on the consolidated statement of financial position.
The Group recognizes right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the
underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated
depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost
of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognized, initial direct costs incurred,
and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received and
estimate of costs to be incurred by the lessee in dismantling and removing the underlying asset,
restoring the site on which it is located or restoring the underlying asset to the condition required by
the terms and conditions of the lease, unless those costs are incurred to produce inventories.

Unless the Group is reasonably certain to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease
term, the recognized right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of
their estimated useful life and lease term. Right-of-use assets are subject to impairment.

Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment commences when the assets are available
for use and is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives (EUL) of the property
and equipment as follows:

Years
Office equipment 2-5
Furniture and fixtures 2-5
Transportation equipment 3-5

Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over term of the lease or the EUL of
the asset of 2 to 5 years.

Unless the Group is reasonably certain to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease
term, the recognized right-of-use assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of lease.

Depreciation on hotel property, excluding land which is not subject to depreciation, does not
commence until it is complete and available for use. The useful life and, depreciation and
amortization methods are reviewed periodically to ensure that the period and method of depreciation
and amortization are consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits from items of property
and equipment.

When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost of the related
accumulated depreciation and amortization, and accumulated provision for impairment losses, if any,

*SGVFSM006755*
- 18 -

are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is credited to or charged against current
operations.

Fully depreciated property and equipment are retained in the accounts until they are no longer in use
and no further depreciation is charged against current operations.

Investment Properties
Investment properties comprise of properties which are held to earn rentals and properties under
construction or redevelopment which will be held for rental upon completion as well as land currently
held for undetermined use. Investment properties also include right-of-use assets involving real
properties that are subleased to other entities.

Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. The carrying amount
includes the cost of the replacing part of an existing investment property at the time that cost is
incurred if the recognition criteria are met and excludes the costs of day-to-day servicing of an
investment property. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are carried at historical
cost less provisions for depreciation and impairment. Accordingly, land is carried at cost less any
impairment in value and building is carried at cost less depreciation and any impairment in value.
Construction-in-progress (CIP) is stated at cost. The initial cost of investment property consists of its
construction costs, and any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to its working condition
and location for its intended use, including capitalized borrowing cost. CIP is not depreciated until
such time as the relevant assets are completed and put into operational use. CIP are carried at cost
and transferred to the related investment property account when the construction and related activities
to prepare the property for its intended use are complete, and the property is ready for occupation.

For those right-of-use assets that qualify as investment properties, i.e., those land that are leased by
the Group, these are classified under investment properties. Consistent with the Group’s policy
regarding the measurement of investment properties, these assets are subsequently measured at cost
less amortization and impairment in value.

Depreciation of investment properties are computed using the straight-line method over the EUL of
the assets 17 to 30 years or lease term, whichever is lower. ROU recognized under investment
properties, which is comprised of land, is depreciated over the lease term of 17 years. The useful life
and depreciation method are reviewed periodically to ensure that the period and method of
depreciation are consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits from items of investment
properties.

Investment properties are derecognized when either they have been disposed of or when the
investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected
from its disposal. The difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the
asset is recognized in profit or loss in the period of derecognition.

A transfer is made to investment property when there is a change in use, evidenced by ending of
owner-occupation or commencement of an operating lease to another party. A transfer is made from
investment property when and only when there is change in use, evidenced by commencement of
owner-occupation or commencement of development with a view to sale. A transfer between
investment property, owner-occupied property and inventory does not change the carrying amount of
the property transferred nor the cost of that property for measurement or disclosure purposes.

*SGVFSM006755*
- 19 -

Impairment of Nonfinancial Assets


The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that its nonfinancial assets
(i.e., deposits on real estate properties, advances to contractors and suppliers, property and equipment,
and investment properties including ROU assets) may be impaired. If any such indication exists or
when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group makes an estimate of the asset’s
recoverable amount.

An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or cash-generating unit’s fair value less
costs of disposal and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does
not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets.

Where the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered
impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. In assessing value in use, the estimated
future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects
current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Impairment
losses are recognized in the expense categories of profit or loss consistent with the function of the
impaired asset.

An assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously
recognized impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists,
the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed only if
there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the
last impairment loss was recognized. If that is the case, the carrying amount of the asset is increased
to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have
been determined, net of depreciation and amortization, had no impairment loss been recognized for
the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognized in profit or loss. After such reversal, the
depreciation and amortization charge is adjusted in future periods to allocate the asset’s revised
carrying amount, less any residual value, on a systematic basis over its remaining useful life.

Customers’ Advances and Deposits


Deposits from real estate buyers
Deposits from real estate buyers represent mainly reservation fees and advance payments. These
deposits will be recognized as revenue in profit or loss as the related obligations are fulfilled to the
real estate buyers. This is treated as contract liabilities of the Group.

Deposits from lessees


Deposits from lessees consist of payments from tenants for leasehold rights. Leasehold rights pertain
to the right to lease the commercial space over a certain number of years. These payments are
subsequently recognized as income under “Rental income” on a straight-line basis over the lease
term. Deposits from lessees also include advance collection pertaining to the lease of commercial
units of the Group.

Equity
Capital stock is measured at par value for all shares issued. When the Group issues more than one
class of share, a separate account is maintained for each class of share and the number of shares
issued. When the shares are sold at premium, the difference between the proceeds and the par value
is credited to additional paid-in capital. When the shares are issued for a consideration other than
cash, the proceeds are measured by the fair value of the consideration received. In case the shares are
issued to extinguish or settle the liability of the Group, the shares are measured either at the fair value
of the shares issued or fair value of the liability settled, whichever is more reliably determinable.

*SGVFSM006755*
- 20 -

An entity typically incurs various costs in issuing or acquiring its own equity instruments. Those
costs might include registration and other regulatory fees, amounts paid to legal, accounting and other
professional advisers, printing costs and stamp duties. The transaction costs of an equity transaction
are accounted for as deductions from equity (net of related income tax benefit) to the extent they are
incremental costs directly attributable to the equity transaction that otherwise would have been
avoided. The costs of an equity transaction that is abandoned are recognized as an expense.

Retained earnings represent the cumulative balance of net income or loss, net of any dividend
declaration.

Other Comprehensive Income


OCI are items of income and expense that are not recognized in for the period in accordance with
PFRSs. The Group’s OCI pertains to remeasurement gains and losses arising from defined benefit
pension plan which cannot be recycled to profit or loss.

Revenue Recognition
Revenue from Contract with Customers
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when profit or loss control of the goods or
services are transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the
Group expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Group assesses its revenue
arrangements against specific criteria to determine if it is acting as a principal or as an agent. The
Group has concluded that it is acting as principal in majority of its revenue arrangements.

The disclosures of significant accounting judgments and the use of estimates relating to revenue from
contracts with customers are provided in Note 3.

Real estate sales


For real estate sales, the Group assesses whether it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to
the Group when the sales prices are collectible. Collectability of the sales price is demonstrated by
the buyer’s commitment to pay, which in turn is supported by substantial initial and continuing
investments that give the buyer a stake in the property sufficient that the risk of loss through default
motivates the buyer to honor its obligation to the seller. Collectability is also assessed by considering
factors such as past history with the buyer and the pricing of the property. Management regularly
evaluates the historical sales cancellations and back-outs, after considering the impact of the
coronavirus pandemic, if it would still support its current threshold of buyers’ equity before
commencing revenue recognition.

The Group derives its real estate revenue from sale of condominium units and warehouses. Revenue
from sales of completed real estate project is accounted using the full accrual method. Revenue from
the sale of uncompleted real estate projects are recognized over time during the construction period
(or POC) since based on the terms and conditions of its contract with the buyers, the Group’s
performance does not create an asset with an alternative use and the Group has an enforceable right to
payment for performance completed to date.

In measuring the progress of its performance obligation over time, the Group uses the output method.
The Group recognizes revenue on the basis of direct measurements of the value to customers of the
goods or services transferred to date, relative to the remaining goods or services promised under the
contract. Progress is measured using survey of performance completed to date. This is based on the
monthly project accomplishment report prepared by the third party surveyor as approved by the
construction manager which integrates the surveys of performance to date of the construction
activities for both sub-contracted and those that are fulfilled by the developer itself.

*SGVFSM006755*
- 21 -

If any of the criteria under the full accrual or POC method is not met, the deposit method is applied
until all the conditions for recording a sale are met. Pending recognition of sale, cash received from
buyers are likewise considered as contract liabilities which is presented under the “Customers’
advances and deposits” account in the consolidated statements of financial position.

Information about the Group’s Performance Obligation


The Group entered into contract to sell with one identified performance obligation which is the sale of
the condominium unit together with the services to transfer the title to the buyer for a corresponding
contract price. The amount of consideration indicated in the contract to sell is fixed and has no
variable consideration.

Payment commences upon signing of the contract to sell and the consideration is payable in cash or
under a financing scheme entered with the customer. The financing scheme would include payment
of certain percentage of the contract price spread over a certain period (e.g. 4 to 7 years) at a fixed
monthly payment with the remaining balance payable in full at the end of the period either through
cash or external financing. The amount due for collection under the amortization schedule for each of
the customer does not necessarily coincide with the progress of construction.

The Group provides a quality assurance warranty which is not treated as a separate performance
obligation.

Rental income
Rental income under cancellable leases on investment properties is recognized in profit or loss based
on the terms of the lease as provided under the lease contract. Rental income under a noncancellable
lease agreement is recognized as income on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Management fee
Management fees consist of revenue arising from contracts of administering a property. The tenants
pay either a fixed amount or depending on the agreement and such payment is recognized when the
related services are rendered.

Interest and other income


Interest is recognized as it accrues (using the EIR method, i.e., based on the rate that exactly
discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument to the
net carrying amount of the financial asset). Other income includes service revenue and customer
related fees such as penalties and surcharges and income from forfeited reservations and collections,
which are recognized as they accrue, taking into account the provisions of the related contract.

Income from forfeited reservation and collections is recognized when the deposits from potential
buyers are deemed nonrefundable, subject to provision of Republic Act (RA) No. 6552, Realty
Installment Buyer Protection Act, upon prescription of the period for the payment of required
amortizations from defaulting buyers.

Costs and Expenses


Costs and expenses are recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income when
decrease in future economic benefit related to a decrease in an asset or an increase in a liability has
arisen that can be measured reliably.

Costs and expenses are recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income:

 On the basis of a direct association between the costs incurred and the earning of specific items of
income;

*SGVFSM006755*
- 22 -

 On the basis of systematic and rational allocation procedures when economic benefits are
expected to arise over several accounting periods and the association can only be broadly or
indirectly determined; or
 Immediately when expenditure produces no future economic benefits or when, and to the extent
that, future economic benefits do not qualify or cease to qualify, for recognition in the statements
of financial position as an asset.

Cost of condominium units


The Group recognizes costs relating to satisfied performance obligations as these are incurred taking
into consideration the contract fulfillment assets such as connection fees, costs of land, land
development costs, building costs, professional fees, depreciation, permits and licenses and
capitalized borrowing costs. These costs are allocated to the saleable area, with the portion allocable
to the sold area being recognized as cost of sales while the portion allocable to the unsold area being
recognized as part of real estate inventories.

Contract costs include all direct materials and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract
performance. Expected losses on contracts are recognized immediately when it is probable that the
total contract costs will exceed total contract revenue.

Selling and administration expenses


Selling expenses are costs incurred to sell real estate inventories, which includes advertising and
promotions, among others. Administrative expenses constitute costs of administering the business.
Except for commission (see disclosure in “Costs to obtain a contract” for the accounting of
commission), selling and administrative expenses are expenses as incurred. These include cost of
leasing services which mainly pertain to depreciation and amortization, taxes and licenses and utilities
related to the Group’s commercial projects.

Commissions paid to sales or marketing agents on the sale of pre-completed real estate units are
deferred when recovery is reasonably expected and are charged to expense in the period in which the
related revenue is recognized as earned. Accordingly, when the POC method is used, commissions
are likewise charged to expense in the period the related revenue is recognized.

Contract Balances
Installment contract receivable
An installment contracts receivable represents the Group’s right to an amount of consideration that is
unconditional (i.e., only the passage of time is required before payment of the consideration is
due). It also includes the difference between the consideration received from the customer and the
transferred goods or services to a customer. If the Group performs by transferring goods or services
to a customer before the customer pays consideration or before payment is due, amount is classified
as installment contracts receivable.

Contract liabilities
A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Group
has received consideration from the customer. If a customer pays consideration before the Group
transfers goods or services to the customer, a contract liability is recognized when the payment is
made. Contract liabilities are recognized as revenue when the Group performs under the contract.

The contract liabilities also include payments received by the Group from the customers for which
revenue recognition has not yet commenced.

Contract liabilities is shown as part of the “Customers’ advances and deposits” account in the
consolidated statements of financial position.

*SGVFSM006755*

Costs to obtain a contract


The costs of obtaining a contract with a customer are recognized as an asset if the Group expects to
recover them. The Group has determined that commissions paid to brokers and marketing agents on
the sale of pre-completed real estate units are deferred when recovery is reasonably expected and are
charged to expense in the period in which the related revenue is recognized as earned. Commission
expense is included in the “Selling and administrative expenses” account under “Costs and Expenses”
in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

Costs incurred prior to obtaining contract with customer are not capitalized but are expensed as
incurred.

Contract fulfillment assets


Contract fulfillment costs are divided into (i) costs that give rise to an asset; and (ii) costs that are
expensed as incurred. When determining the appropriate accounting treatment for such costs, the
Group considers any other applicable standards. If those standards preclude capitalization of a
particular cost, then an asset is not recognized under PFRS 15.

If other standards are not applicable to contract fulfillment costs, the Group applies the following
criteria which if met, result in capitalization (i) costs directly relate to a contract or to a specifically
identifiable anticipated contract; (ii) costs generate or enhance resources of the entity that will be used
in satisfying (or in continuing to satisfy) performance obligations in the future; and (iii) costs are
expected to be recovered. The assessment of this criteria requires the application of judgement
particularly in determining whether costs generate or enhance resources to be used to satisfy future
performance obligations and whether costs are expected to be recoverable.

Amortization, derecognition and impairment of contract fulfillment assets and capitalized costs to
obtain a contract
The Group amortizes contract fulfillment assets and capitalized costs to obtain a contract to cost of
sales over the expected construction period using POC following the pattern of real estate revenue
recognition. The amortizations of contract fulfilment assets and capitalized costs to obtain a contract
are included in the “Real estate” and “Selling and administrative” accounts under “Costs and
Expenses” in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

A contract fulfillment asset or capitalized costs capitalized to obtain a contract is derecognized when
it is disposed of or when no further economic benefits are expected to flow from its use or disposal.
At each reporting date, the Group determines whether there is an indication that a contract fulfillment
asset may be impaired. If such indication exists, the Group makes an estimate by comparing the
carrying amount of the asset to the remaining amount of consideration that the Group expects to
receive less those costs that relate to providing services under the contract. In determining the
estimated amount of consideration, the Group uses the same principles as it does to determine the
contract transaction price, except that any constraints used to reduce the transaction price is removed
when testing for impairment.

In case the relevant costs demonstrate indicators of impairment, judgement is required in ascertaining
the future economic benefits from these contracts as sufficient to recover the relevant assets.

Borrowing Costs
Borrowing costs incurred during the construction period on borrowings used to finance property
development are capitalized as part of development costs (included in “Real estate for development
and sale”, “Property and Equipment” and “Investment properties” accounts in the consolidated
statements of financial position). Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity
incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds. Capitalization of borrowing costs commences

*SGVFSM006755*
- 24 -

when the activities to prepare the asset are in progress and expenditures and borrowing costs are
being incurred. Capitalization of borrowing costs ceases when substantially all the activities
necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use or sale are complete.

Capitalized borrowing cost is based on applicable weighted average borrowing rate for those coming
from general borrowings and the actual borrowing costs eligible for capitalization for funds borrowed
specifically.

All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.

Debt Issuance Costs


Transaction costs incurred in connection with the availments of long-term debt are deferred and
amortized using the EIR method over the term of the related loans. These are included in the
measurement basis of the related loans.

Pension Liabilities
The Group has an unfunded, noncontributory defined benefit retirement plan covering all of its
qualified employees. The Group’s pension liability is the aggregate of the present value of the
defined benefit obligation as of the reporting date.

The cost of providing benefits under the defined benefit plans is actuarially determined using the
projected unit credit method.

Pension costs comprise the following:


 Service cost
 Interest on the pension liability
 Remeasurements of pension liability

Service costs which include current service costs, past service costs and gains or losses on non-
routine settlements are recognized as expense in profit or loss. Past service costs are recognized
when plan amendment or curtailment occurs. These amounts are calculated annually by independent
qualified actuaries.

Interest on the pension liability is the change during the period in the pension liability that arises from
the passage of time which is determined by applying the discount rate based on government bonds to
the pension liability. Interest on the pension liability is recognized in the consolidated statement of
comprehensive income as “Finance costs”.

Remeasurements comprising actuarial gains and losses are recognized immediately in OCI in the
period in which they arise. Remeasurements are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent
periods.

Leases
The Group assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the
contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for
consideration.

Group as a lessor
Leases where the Group does not transfer substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the
assets are classified as operating leases. In determining significant risks and benefits of ownership,
the Group considers, among others, the significance of the lease term as compared with the EUL of

*SGVFSM006755*
- 25 -

the related asset. Rental income is recognized over the lease term on a straight-line basis, unless
another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which use benefit is derived.

The Group requires its tenants to pay leasehold rights pertaining to the right to use the leased unit
which is reported under “Customers’ advances and deposits” in the consolidated statements of
financial position. Upon commencement of the lease, these payments are recognized in the
consolidated statements of comprehensive income under “Rental income” on a straight-line basis over
the lease term.

Lease modification
Lease modification is defined as a change in the scope of a lease, or the consideration for a lease, that
was not part of the original terms and conditions of the lease (for example, adding or terminating the
right to use one or more underlying assets, or extending or shortening the contractual lease term).

A lessor shall account for a modification to an operating lease as a new lease from the effective date
of the modification, considering any prepaid or accrued lease payments relating to the original lease
as part of the lease payments for the new lease. If a change in lease payments does not meet the
definition of a lease modification that change would generally be accounted for as a negative variable
lease payment. In the case of an operating lease, a lessor recognizes the effect of the rent concession
by recognizing lower income from leases.

Group as a lessee – effective on or after January 1, 2019


The Group applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-
term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Group recognizes lease liabilities to make lease
payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.

Lease liabilities
At the commencement date of the lease, the Group recognizes lease liabilities measured at the
present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include
fixed payments (including in substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable,
variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under
residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase
option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Group and payments of penalties for terminating
a lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising the option to terminate. The variable lease
payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as expense in the period on
which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.

In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Group uses the incremental borrowing rate
at the lease commencement date if the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily
determinable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect
the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying
amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a
change in the in-substance fixed lease payments or a change in the assessment to purchase the
underlying asset.

Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets


The Group applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases of
machinery and equipment (i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the
commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). Lease payments on short-term leases
and leases of low-value assets are recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease
term.

*SGVFSM006755*
- 26 -

Group as a lessee - prior to January 1, 2019


Leases where the lessor retains substantially all the risks and benefits of the ownership of the asset are
classified as operating leases. Lease payments on cancellable lease agreements are recognized as
expense based on the terms of the contract. Lease payments on noncancellable lease agreements are
recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Income Taxes
Current taxes
Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected
to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute
the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted as at the reporting date.

Deferred taxes
Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on temporary differences, with certain exceptions,
at the reporting date between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for
financial reporting purposes.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences, including asset
revaluations. Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, carry
forward benefit of unused tax credits from the excess of minimum corporate income tax (MCIT) over
the regular corporate income tax (RCIT) and unused net operating loss carryover (NOLCO), to the
extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the deductible
temporary differences and carryforward of unused tax credits from MCIT and unused NOLCO can be
utilized. Deferred tax, however, is not recognized on temporary differences that arise from the initial
recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and at the time of
the transaction, affects neither the accounting income nor taxable income.

Deferred tax liabilities are not provided on non-taxable temporary differences associated with
investments in domestic subsidiaries and associates.

The carrying amounts of deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the
extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient future taxable income will be available to allow all
or part of the deferred tax assets to be utilized. Unrecognized deferred tax assets are reassessed at
each reporting date and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable
income will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

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

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

Basic/Diluted Earnings Per Share (EPS)


Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income for the period attributable to common stockholders by
the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding during the period adjusted for
any stock dividends issued. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income for the period
attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares issued and
outstanding during the period after giving effect to assumed conversion of potential common shares.
Basic and diluted EPS are adjusted to give retroactive effect to any stock dividends declared during
the period.

*SGVFSM006755*
- 27 -

As at December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Group has no dilutive potential common shares.

Segment Reporting
The Group’s operating business is composed of condominium sales, leasing and property
management. Financial information on the Group’s business segments are presented in Note 21.

Fair Value Measurement


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

 In the principal market for the asset or liability, or,


 In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability

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

 Level 1 - quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
 Level 2 - valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value
measurement is directly or indirectly observable
 Level 3 - valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value
measurement is unobservable

For assets and liabilities that are recognized in the consolidated financial statements on a recurring
basis, the Group determines whether transfers have occurred between Levels in the hierarchy by
re-assessing categorization (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value
measurement as a whole) at each reporting date.

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

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

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

A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset 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.
The Group uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which
sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs
and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.

Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result
of a past event, 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.
Provisions are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate.

*SGVFSM006755*
- 28 -

Contingencies
Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the consolidated financial statements. These are disclosed
unless the possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote. Contingent
assets are not recognized in the consolidated financial statements but disclosed when an inflow of
economic benefits is probable.

Events After the Reporting Date


Post year-end events up to the date of auditor’s report that provide additional information about the
Group’s position at the reporting date (adjusting events) are reflected in the consolidated financial
statements. Post year-end events that are not adjusting events are disclosed in the consolidated
financial statements when material.

3. Significant Accounting Judgments and Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in compliance with PFRSs requires
management to make judgments and estimates that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated
financial statements. The judgments and estimates used in the consolidated financial statements are
based upon management’s evaluation of relevant facts and circumstances as of the date of the
consolidated financial statements. Future events may occur which will cause the judgments and
assumptions used in arriving at the estimates to change. The effects of any change in judgments and
estimates are reflected in the consolidated financial statements as they become reasonably
determinable.

Judgments and estimates are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other
factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances.

Judgments
In the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies, management has made the following
judgments, apart from those involving estimations, which have the most significant effect on the
amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements:

Leases
The Group applied the following judgments that significantly affect the determination of the amount
and timing of income from lease contracts:

Determination of lease term of contracts with renewal options – Group as a lessee (Effective
January 1, 2019)
The Group has several lease contracts that include extension options. The Group applies judgment in
evaluating whether it is reasonably certain whether or not to exercise the option to renew the lease.
That is, it considers all relevant factors that create an economic incentive for it to exercise either the
renewal. After the commencement date, the Group reassesses the lease term if there is a significant
event or change in circumstances that is within its control and affects its ability to exercise or not to
exercise the option to renew (e.g., construction of significant leasehold improvements or significant
customization to the leased asset).

The Group included the renewal period as part of the lease term for the lease of a parcel of land where
one of the Group’s investment property is located. The Group assessed that the option to renew the
lease contract is reasonably certain to be exercised.

*SGVFSM006755*
- 29 -

Real estate revenue recognition

Existence of a contract
The Group’s primary document for a contract with a customer is a signed contract to sell. It has
determined, however, that in cases wherein contract to sell is not signed by both parties, the other
signed documentations such as purchase agreement and reservation application would contain all the
criteria to qualify as contract with the customer under PFRS 15.

Equity threshold
Part of the Group’s assessment process before revenue recognition is to assess the probability that the
Group will collect the consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for the real estate
property that will be transferred to the customer. Collectability of the sales price is demonstrated by
the buyer’s commitment to pay, which in turn is supported by substantial initial and continuing
investments that give the buyer a stake in the property sufficient that the risk of loss through default
motivates the buyer to honor its obligation to the seller. Collectability is also assessed by considering
factors such as past history with the buyer, and the pricing of the property. Management regularly
evaluates the historical sales cancellations and back-outs, after considering the impact of the
coronavirus pandemic, if it would still support its current threshold of buyers’ equity before
commencing revenue recognition.

Revenue recognition and measure of progress


The Group concluded that revenue for real estate sales is to be recognized over time because: (a) the
Group’s performance does not create an asset with an alternative use and; (b) the Group has an
enforceable right for performance completed to date.

The promised property covering specific condominium unit and/or parking slot is specifically
identified in the contract. The Group is contractually restricted to sell the promised property to
another buyer or to direct it for another use. In addition, the Group has the right to enforce payment
from the buyer up to the performance completed to date.

The Group has determined that output method used in measuring the progress of the performance
obligation faithfully depicts the Group’s performance in transferring control of real estate
development to the customers.

Distinction between business combination and property acquisition


The Group acquires subsidiaries that own real estate. At the time of acquisition, the Group considers
whether the acquisition represents acquisition of a business or acquisition of an asset. The Group
accounts for an acquisition as a business combination where an integrated set of activities and assets
is acquired in addition to the property.

When the acquisition of subsidiaries does not represent a business combination, it is accounted for as
an acquisition of a group of assets and liabilities. The cost of the acquisition is allocated to the assets
and liabilities acquired based upon their relative fair values, and no goodwill or deferred tax is
recognized.

The Group’s acquisition of 100% of the voting shares of FRC in 2019 represents acquisition of an
asset.

Distinction between real estate for development and sale, property and equipment and investment
properties
The Group determines whether a property qualifies as real estate for development and sale, property
and equipment or investment properties by considering whether the property is occupied substantially

*SGVFSM006755*
- 30 -

for use by or in operations of the Group; for sale in the ordinary course of the business; or, held
primarily to earn rental income and capital appreciation.

Real estate for development and sale comprise both condominium units for sale and land held for
future development, which are properties that are held for sale in the ordinary course of the business.
Principally, these are properties that the Group develops and intends to sell before or upon completion
of construction.

Properties intended to earn rental and for capital appreciation are classified as investment properties
while properties occupied by the Group are considered as property and equipment. Some properties
comprise a portion that is held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation and another portion that is
held for services or for administrative purposes. If these portions cannot be sold separately at the
reporting date, the property is accounted for as investment property only if an insignificant portion is
held for use for administrative purposes. Judgment is applied in determining whether ancillary
services are so significant that a property does not qualify as investment property. The Group
considers each property separately in making its judgment.

Impairment testing of financial assets

Definition of default and credit-impaired assets


The Group defines a financial instrument as in default, which is fully aligned with the definition of
credit-impaired, when it meets one or more of the following criteria:

Quantitative criteria
The Group has applied the presumption indicated within PFRS 9 pertaining to the default definition;
that is, default of a financial instrument does not occur later than when a financial asset is 90 days
past due.

Qualitative criteria
The counterparty meets unlikeliness to pay criteria, which indicates the borrower is in significant
financial difficulty. These are instances where:
 The counterparty is in long-term forbearance;
 The counterparty is deceased;
 The counterparty is insolvent;
 The counterparty is in breach of financial covenant(s);
 An active market for that financial asset has disappeared because of financial difficulties;
 Concessions have been granted by the Group relating to the counterparty’s financial difficulty;
 It is becoming probable that the counterparty will enter bankruptcy; or
 Financial assets are purchased or originated at a deep discount that reflects the incurred credit
losses.

The criteria above have been applied to all financial instruments held by the Group and are consistent
with the definition of default used for internal credit risk management purposes. The default
definition has been applied consistently to model the PD, Exposure at Default (EAD), and LGD,
including the impact of the coronavirus pandemic for the expected timing of recoveries, throughout
the Group’s expected loss calculations.

An instrument is considered to no longer be in default (i.e. to have cured) when it no longer meets any
of the default criteria for a consecutive period of six months.

*SGVFSM006755*
- 31 -

Transfers of financial assets with continuing involvement


The Group enters into various agreements with local banks for the sale of its installment contracts
receivable in the form of sale without recourse transactions. In the substance of the agreements, the
Group has continuing involvement over the receivables sold. Accordingly, the receivables were not
derecognized and the related cash considerations were recognized as loans payable. Contract
receivables sold under these agreements amounted to nil and P =11.58 million as at December 31, 2020
and 2019, respectively (see Notes 5 and 12).

Impairment of nonfinancial assets


The Group assesses impairment on its nonfinancial assets (i.e., property and equipment, investment
properties and software costs) and considers the following important indicators:
 Significant changes in asset usage;
 Significant decline in assets’ market value;
 Obsolescence or physical damage of an asset;
 Significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results;
and,
 Significant negative industry or economic trends.

If such indications are present and where the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its recoverable
amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

As at December 31, 2020 and 2019, carrying values follow:

2020 2019
Property and equipment (Note 8) P
=2,720,174,308 =2,097,219,920
P
Investment properties (Note 9) 15,221,425,058 14,893,755,115
Advances to contractors and supplier
(Notes 7 and 10) 1,599,968,533 1,166,651,958
Deposits on real estate properties (Notes 7 and 10) 77,390,800 150,388,427
Software and brand development costs (Note 10) 8,184,278 7,895,697

Management assessed that there are no indicators of impairment for the Group’s nonfinancial assets
as at December 31, 2020 and 2019 except for the hotel property under construction. No impairment
loss was recognized in 2020 as the recoverable amount exceeds the carrying value of the hotel
property as of December 31, 2020. Refer to discussion under estimates.

Assessment on whether lease concessions granted constitute a lease modification


In line with the rental relief framework implemented by the government to support businesses and the
broader economy due to the impact of the coronavirus pandemic, the Group provided lease
concessions in the form of discounts, adjustments, and waiver of monthly rental fees to its lessees.

The Group applies judgment when assessing whether the rent concessions granted is considered a
lease modification under PFRS 16. In making this judgment, the Group determines whether the rent
concessions granted has changed the scope of the lease, or the consideration thereof, that was not part
of the original terms and conditions of the lease, including consideration of general and special laws
in the Philippines which may apply.

The impact of lease concessions granted by the Group decreased total rental income in 2020 by
=57.57 million for concessions accounted as lease modification.

Management’s Use of Estimates


The 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 within the next financial year are discussed below. The Group based its
assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the consolidated financial statements were
prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change
due to market changes or circumstances arising that are beyond the control of the Group. Such
changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.

Valuation of investment property


The fair value of investment property is determined by real estate valuation experts using recognized
valuation techniques and the principles of PFRS 13, Fair Value Measurement. Investment property is
measured based on estimates prepared by independent real estate valuation experts, except where
such values cannot be reliably determined. The significant methods and assumptions used by valuers
in estimating the fair value of investment property are set out in Note 9.

Estimating NRV of real estate inventories


The Group reviews the NRV of real estate inventories, which are recorded under “Real estate for
development and sale” in the consolidated statements of financial position, and compares it with the
cost, since assets should not be carried in excess of amounts expected to be realized from sale. Real
estate for development and sale are written down below cost when the estimated NRV is found to be
lower than the cost.

NRV for completed real estate inventories is assessed with reference to market conditions and prices
existing at the reporting date and is determined by the Group in light of recent market transactions
and having taken suitable external advice. NRV in respect of inventory under construction is
assessed with reference to market prices at the reporting date for similar completed property, less
estimated costs to complete construction and less an estimate of the time value of money to the date
of completion.

The estimates used took into consideration fluctuations of price or cost directly relating to events
occurring after the reporting date to the extent that such events confirm conditions existing at the
reporting date. As at December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Group’s real estate for development and sale
which are carried at cost amounted to = P7,780.36 million and P=5,979.06 million, respectively
(see Note 6).

Revenue recognition
The Group’s revenue from real estate sales are recognized based on the POC method. POC is
determined based on the physical proportion of work done on the real estate project which requires
technical determination by the Group’s project engineers. The rate of completion is validated by the
responsible department to determine whether it approximates the actual completion rate. Changes in
estimate may affect the reported amounts of revenue and receivables.

Real estate sales amounted to =


P2,125.81 million, =
P4,731.79 million and =
P5,371.39 million for the
years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively (see Note 21).

Recognition of deferred tax assets


The Group reviews the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets at each reporting date and reduces the
amounts to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient future taxable profits will be
available to allow all or part of the deferred tax assets to be utilized. Significant judgment is required
to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognized based upon the likely timing

*SGVFSM006755*
- 33 -

and level of future taxable income together with future planning strategies. The Group assessed its
projected performance in determining the sufficiency of future taxable profit.

The net deferred tax assets recognized as at December 31, 2020 and 2019 amounted to
=86.32 million and =
P P76.21 million, respectively. The Group’s unrecognized deferred tax assets
amounted to =P1.07 million and =P1.04 million as at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively (see
Note 18).

Impairment testing of financial assets upon adoption of PFRS 9

Provision for Expected Credit Losses of receivables


The Group determines an allowance for impairment loss at a level considered adequate to provide for
potential uncollectible receivables. The Group applies simplified approach in calculating expected
credit loss (ECL). The Group performs a regular review of the age and status of these accounts which
are designed to identify accounts for impairment. The Group considers the following key areas of
judgment: segmenting the Group’s credit risk exposures; determining the method to estimate lifetime
ECL; defining default; determining assumptions to be used in the ECL model such as timing and
amount of expected net recoveries from defaulted accounts; and incorporating forward-looking
information (called overlays), including the impact of coronavirus pandemic, in calculating ECL.
The amount of ECLs is sensitive to changes in circumstances and forecasted economic conditions.
External information includes economic data and forecasts published by governmental bodies,
monetary authorities and selected private-sector and academic institutions. Assumptions used in the
assessment include one year as timing of resale upon completion projects, original selling price, and
relevant forward-looking macro-economic assumptions.

As at December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Group has not provided any allowance for impairment losses
on its trade receivables from real estate sales of =
P4,633.66 million and P
=5,997.42 million as at
December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively (see Note 5), after consideration of credit enhancement
(see Note 20).

Estimating pension cost and obligation


The cost of defined benefit pension plans and the present value of the pension obligations are
determined using actuarial valuations. The actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions
which include the determination of the discount rates, future salary increases, mortality rates and
future pension increases. Due to the complexity of the valuation, the underlying assumptions and its
long-term nature, defined benefit obligations are highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions.
All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date.

In determining the appropriate discount rate, management considers the interest rates of government
bonds that are denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid, with extrapolated
maturities corresponding to the expected duration of the defined benefit obligation.

The mortality rate is based on publicly available mortality tables for the specific country and is
modified accordingly with estimates of mortality improvements. Future salary increases and pension
increases are based on expected future inflation rates for the specific country.

While the Group believes that the assumptions are reasonable and appropriate, significant differences
between actual experiences and assumptions may materially affect the cost of employee benefits and
related obligations.

*SGVFSM006755*
- 34 -

As at December 31, 2020 and 2019, the present value of benefit obligation amounted to
=74.72 million and =
P P104.65 million, respectively. Net pension cost amounted to P
=24.03 million and
=18.51 million for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively (see Note 17).
P

Leases - Estimating the incremental borrowing rate


The Group cannot readily determine the interest rate implicit in leases where it is the lessee, therefore,
it uses its incremental borrowing rate (IBR) to measure lease liabilities. The IBR is the rate of
interest that the Group would have to pay to borrow over a similar term, and with a similar security,
the funds necessary to obtain an asset of a similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic
environment. The IBR therefore reflects what the Group ‘would have to pay’, which requires
estimation when no observable rates are available (such as for subsidiaries that do not enter into
financing transactions) or when they need to be adjusted to reflect the terms and conditions of the
lease (for example, when leases are not in the subsidiary’s functional currency). The Group estimates
the IBR using observable inputs (such as market interest rates) when available and is required to
make certain entity-specific estimates (such as the subsidiary’s stand-alone credit rating).

As at December 31, 2020 and 2019, lease liabilities of the Group amounted to =
P319.02 million and
=259.93 million, respectively (see Notes 20 and 22).
P

Evaluation of impairment of hotel property


The Group assesses whether there are any indicators of impairment for its hotel property classified
under property and equipment (see Note 8) at each financial reporting date. This is tested for
impairment when there are indicators that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.

In view of the continuing community quarantine being implemented due to the coronavirus pandemic
in 2020, the Group’s hotel segment continues to be adversely affected by travel restrictions and delay
in the construction activities. While the hotel property of the Group is still under construction as of
December 31, 2020, the impact of the coronavirus pandemic is still expected to continue even after
the completion of the construction as travel and mobility restrictions, social distancing and stay-at-
home orders, among other measures, are still being implemented. These events and conditions are
impairment indicators requiring the assessment of the recoverable amount of the hotel property,
which involves significant judgment, estimation and assumptions about occupancy rates, average
room rates, as well as external inputs such as discount rate.

The carrying value of the hotel property under construction amounted to P


=2,595.04 million and
=2,013.59 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
P

The Group estimates the recoverable amount based on the value-in-use. In determining the present
value of estimated future cash flows expected to be generated from the continued use of these assets
of the hotel segment, the Group is required to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the
nonfinancial assets. The significant assumptions used in the valuation of the hotel property being
constructed is the (a) discount rate of 10.10%, (b) estimated increase in room rates ranging from 5%
to 10% and (c) estimated occupancy rates ranging from 20% to 70%. The Group considered in its
assumptions the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on the occupancy rate and room rates which are
not expected to normalize until 2025. No impairment loss was recognized in 2020 as the recoverable
amount exceeds the carrying value of the hotel property as of December 31, 2020.

Input VAT represents taxes imposed on the Group for the acquisition of lots, purchase of goods from
its suppliers and availment of services from its contractors, as required by Philippine taxation laws
and regulations. This will be used against future output VAT liabilities or will be claimed as tax
credits. Management has estimated that all input VAT is recoverable at its full amount.

Creditable withholding tax pertains mainly to the amounts withheld from income derived from real
estate sales and leasing activities. Creditable withholding tax will be applied against income tax due.

Prepaid expenses are attributable to prepayments of rent, insurance premiums, real property taxes and
cost to obtain contracts, i.e. commission that is related to the real estate sales.

The principal assumptions used to determine pension benefits of the Group follow:

2020 2019
Discount rate 4.46% to 5.03% 5.20% to 5.54%
Salary increase rate 5.00% 10.00%

There were no changes from the previous period in the methods and assumptions used in preparing
sensitivity analysis.

The average duration of the DBO as of the reporting date is 15.90 to 16.70 years in 2020 and 11.50 to
21.60 years in 2019.

The sensitivity analysis below has been determined based on reasonably possible changes of each
significant assumption on the defined benefit obligation as of the reporting date, assuming all other
assumptions are held constant. It should be noted that the changes assumed to be reasonably possible
at the valuation date are open to subjectivity, and do not consider more complex scenarios in which
changes other than those assumed may be deemed to be more reasonable.

Capital Management
The primary objective of the Group’s capital management is to ensure that it maintains a strong credit
rating and healthy capital ratios in order to support its business and maximize shareholder value. The
Group establishes the appropriate capital structure for each business line that properly reflects its
premier credit rating and allows it the financial flexibility, while providing it sufficient cushion to
absorb cyclical industry risks.

The Group considers debt as a stable source of funding. The Group lengthened the maturity profile of
its debt portfolio and makes it a point to spread out its debt maturities by not having a significant
percentage of its total debt maturing in a single year.

The Group manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it, in light of changes in economic
conditions. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the dividend payment to
shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares.

The following table shows the components of what the Group considers its capital as at
December 31, 2020 and 2019:

2020 2019
Capital stock:

P

The Group monitors capital using a gearing ratio, which is net debt divided by total capital plus net
debt. Net debt includes accounts and other payables, interest-bearing loans and borrowings, and
customers’ advances and deposits, less cash and cash equivalents. Capital pertains to equity
attributable to the equity holders of the parent, excluding OCI.

Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in raising funds to meet commitments
associated with financial instruments. Liquidity risk may result from either: the inability to sell
financial assets quickly at their fair values; the counterparty failing on repayment of a contractual
obligation; or the inability to generate cash inflows as anticipated.

The Group’s objective is to maintain balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through
the use of bank loans. The Group monitors its cash flow position, debt maturity profile and overall
liquidity position in assessing its exposure to liquidity risk. The Group maintains a level of cash and
cash equivalents deemed sufficient to finance its operations and to mitigate the effects of fluctuation
in cash flows. Capital expenditures, operating expenses and working capital requirements are
sufficiently funded through cash collections and bank loans. Accordingly, its financial liabilities,
obligations and bank loans maturity profile are regularly reviewed to ensure availability of funding
through an adequate amount of credit facilities with financial institutions. As at December 31, 2020
and 2019, the Group has undrawn facilities amounting = P17.60 billion and =
P19.29 billion, respectively.

The tables below summarize the maturity profile of the Group’s financial liabilities based on
contractual undiscounted payments and the financial assets and contract assets to manage liquidity as
at December 31, 2020 and 2019:

Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or
customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Group trades only with recognized, creditworthy
third parties. The Group’s receivables are monitored on an ongoing basis resulting to a manageable
exposure to bad debts. Real estate buyers are subject to standard credit check procedures, which are
calibrated based on the payment scheme offered. The Group’s respective credit management unit
conducts a credit investigation and evaluation of each buyer to establish creditworthiness.

Receivable balances are being monitored on a regular basis to ensure timely execution of necessary
intervention efforts. In addition, the credit risk for real estate receivables is mitigated as the Group
has the right to cancel the sales contract without need for any court action and take possession of the
subject condominium units in case of refusal by the buyer to pay the due installment contracts
receivable on time. This risk is further mitigated because the corresponding title to the condominium
units sold under this arrangement is transferred to the buyers only upon full payment of the contract
price.

The subjected condominium units for sale are held as collateral for all installment contracts
receivable. The maximum exposure to credit risk, before considering credit exposure, from the
Group’s installment contracts receivable amounted to = P4,633.66 million and =P5,997.42 million as at
December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The fair value of the related collaterals amounted to
=24,104.12 million and =
P P35,367.47 million as at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively resulting
to zero net exposure amounts as of December 31, 2020 and 2019. The basis for the fair value of the
collaterals is the current selling price of the condominium units.

Given the Group’s diverse base of counterparties, it is not exposed to large concentrations of credit
risk.

As at December 31, 2020 and 2019, the credit quality per class of financial assets are as follows:

The credit quality of the financial assets and contract assets was determined as follows:

Cash in banks and cash equivalents are considered Grade A due to the counterparties’ low probability
of insolvency. The Group transacts only with institutions or banks which have demonstrated
financial soundness for several years.

Grade A installment contracts receivable are considered to be of high value where the counterparties
have a very remote likelihood of default and have consistently exhibited good paying habits.

Grade B accounts are active accounts with minimal to regular instances of payment default, due to
collection issues. These accounts are typically not impaired as the counterparties generally respond
to the Group’s collection efforts and update their payments accordingly.

Substandard grade accounts are accounts which have probability of impairment based on historical
trend. These accounts show propensity to default in payment despite regular follow-up actions and
extended payment terms. The Group assessed that there are no financial assets that will fall under
this category as the Group transacts with recognized third parties.

Rental receivable, due from condominium associations, other receivables and deposits are considered
as Grade A. The credit quality rating of Grade A pertains to receivables with no defaults in payment.
The Group determines financial assets as impaired when the probability of recoverability is remote
and in consideration of the lapse in the period which the asset is expected to be recovered. As at
December 31, 2020 and 2019, the aging analysis of the Group’s past due but not impaired installment
contracts receivable and rental receivable follows:

Interest rate risk


Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in the market interest rates will reduce the Group’s current or
future earnings and/or economic value. The Group’s interest rate risk management policy centers on
reducing the overall interest expense and exposure to changes in interest rates. Changes in market
interest rates relate primarily to the Group’s interest-bearing debt obligations with floating interest
rates or rates subject to repricing as it can cause a change in the amount of interest payments.

The table below demonstrates the sensitivity of the Group’s profit before tax and equity to a
reasonably possible change in interest rates on December 31, 2020 and 2019, with all variables held
constant (through the impact on floating rate borrowings):

21. Segment Information

Business segment information is reported on the basis that is used internally for evaluating segment
performance and deciding how to allocate resources among operating segments. Accordingly, the
segment information is reported based on the nature of service the Group is providing.

As at December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Group considers the following as its reportable segments:

 Condominium sales - development of high-end condominium units for sale to third parties
 Leasing and hotel - development of hotel and, commercial units and shopping centers for lease to
third parties
 Property management - facilities management and consultancy services covering condominium
and building administration

The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) has been identified as the chief operating decision-maker
(CODM). The CODM reviews the Group’s internal reports in order to assess performance and
allocate resources. Management has determined the operating segments based on these reports. The
Group does not report results based on geographical segments because the Group operates only in the
Philippines.

The financial information about the operations of the reportable segments for the years ended
December 31, 2020 and 2019 and 2018 follow:

25. Events related to COVID-19 Pandemic

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak as a global
pandemic. In a move to contain the COVID-19 outbreak, several quarantine measures have been
implemented in the National Capital Region (NCR) and other areas with significant number of
COVID-19 cases. These quarantine measures have resulted in disruptions in the Group’s business and
economic activities.

On March 27, 2021, the Presidential Spokesperson has announced that ECQ will be implemented in
the NCR+ “bubble” covering the NCR, Bulacan, Rizal, Cavite and Laguna starting March 29, 2021
until April 4, 2021 and subsequently extended until April 11, 2021 as approved by the President.

Considering the evolving nature of the pandemic, the Group will continue to monitor the situation and
adopt appropriate risk management procedures and business continuity strategies in order to mitigate
the adverse impact of the pandemic.

26. Subsequent Events

Corporate Recovery and Tax Incentives for Enterprises (CREATE) Act


President Rodrigo Duterte signed into law on March 26, 2021 the Corporate Recovery and Tax
Incentives for Enterprises (CREATE) Act to attract more investments and maintain fiscal prudence and
stability in the Philippines. Republic Act (RA) 11534 or the CREATE Act introduces reforms to the
corporate income tax and incentives systems. It takes effect 15 days after its complete publication in
the Official Gazette or in a newspaper of general circulation or April 11, 2021.

The key changes of the CREATE law are as follows:


 Effective July 1, 2020, regular corporate income tax (RCIT) rate is reduced from 30% to 25% for
domestic and resident foreign corporations. For domestic corporations with net taxable income
not exceeding Php5 million and with total assets not exceeding Php100 million (excluding land
on which the business entity’s office, plant and equipment are situated) during the taxable year,
the RCIT rate is reduced to 20%;
 Minimum corporate income tax (MCIT) rate reduced from 2% to 1% of gross income effective
July 1, 2020 to June 30, 2023; and
 Improperly accumulated earnings tax of 10% will be repealed.

As clarified by the Philippine Financial Reporting Standards Council in its Philippine Interpretations
Committee Q&A No. 2020-07, the CREATE Act was not considered substantively enacted as of
December 31, 2020 even though some of the provisions have retroactive effect to July 1, 2020. The
passage of the CREATE Act into law on March 26, 2011 is considered as a non-adjusting subsequent
event. Accordingly, current and deferred taxes as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020

*SGVFSM006755*
- 69 -

continued to be computed and measured using the applicable income tax rates as of
December 31, 2020 (i.e., 30% RCIT / 2% MCIT) for financial reporting purposes.

Applying the provisions of the CREATE Act, entities within the Group would have been subjected to
lower regular corporate income tax rate of 25% RCIT/1% MCIT effective July 1, 2020.

 This will result in lower provision for current income tax for the year ended December 31, 2020
and lower income tax payable as of December 31, 2020 by an expected amount of
=17.22 million, which will be reflected in the 2020 annual income tax return but will only be
P
recognized for financial reporting purposes in the 2021 financial statements.

 This will result in lower deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2020 and higher
provision for deferred tax for the year then ended by = P10.59 million, =
P24.76 million, and
=11.48 million, respectively. These reductions will be recognized in the 2021 financial
P
statements.

Materiality Process

The Disclosure Topics in the template provided by the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC), attached to its Memorandum Circular No. 4 Series of 2019 as Annex
“A” of the Guidelines, are largely based on the GRI framework. The Project Team has
thus decided to use such Disclosure Topics in this report, instead of the actual GRI
items.

The materiality, or the impact, of each Disclosure Topic to the economy, environment,
and society is evaluated keeping in mind (1) the U.N. Sustainable Development Goals
(SDG) to which the Disclosure Topic contributes and (2) the degree to which Anchor
Land generates the impact and/or the impact’s relevance to its stakeholders.

Quoting a section on GRI 101: Foundation 2016, under 1.3 Materiality:

Relevant topics, which potentially merit inclusion in the report, are those that can
reasonably be considered important for reflecting the organization’s economic,
environmental, and social impacts, or influencing the decisions of stakeholders. In
this context, ‘impact’ refers to the effect an organization has on the economy, the
environment, and/or society (positive or negative). A topic can be relevant – and so
potentially material – based on only one of these dimensions.

Since all material impacts lead to the 17 U.N. Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs),
considered herein as an ultimate and universal set of targets for sustainability, the
Project Team has decided to make the U.N. SDGs incident to materiality.

With respect to the degree to which Anchor Land generates the impact and/or the
impact’s relevance to its stakeholders, each Disclosure Topic is rated either as High
wherein the company immediately causes the impact; Medium wherein the company
influences, but not causes, the impact; and Low to Not Applicable. In all 3 ratings,
the company’s stakeholders are considered, if a particular item affects their decisions
and/or interests. Those rated as High or Medium are considered material in this
report.

In GRI 101: Foundation 2016, under 1.1 Stakeholder Inclusiveness:

Stakeholders are defined as entities or individuals that can reasonably be expected to


be significantly affected by the reporting organization’s activities, products, or services;
or whose actions can reasonably be expected to affect the ability of the organization
to implement its strategies or achieve its objectives.

Stakeholders can therefore be thought of as parties that are affected by the impact
and/or those that affect the organization that generates the impact. Depending on
the item, the company’s stakeholders can mean its employees, suppliers, customers,
Government, the community, and so forth.
