MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Introduction

SCGM Bhd (“SCGM” or “the Group”) was established in 1984 through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Lee Soon Seng Plastic
Industries Sdn Bhd (“LSSPI”). In a span of 38 years, the Group has grown by leaps and bounds to become a leading
thermoform food and beverage (“F&B”) packaging manufacturer in Malaysia.

Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad (“Bursa Securities”) had vide its letter dated 2 September 2022 notified the Company
that the Company is a Cash Company pursuant to Paragraph 8.03(1) of the Main Market Listing Requirements of Bursa
Securities (“MMLR”) upon completion of the disposal of Lee Soon Seng Plastic Industries Sdn. Bhd. to Mitsui & Co. Ltd
and FP Corporation.

In this respect, the Company must comply with the provisions and requirements in Paragraph 8.03 and Practice Note 16
(“PN16”) of the MMLR. Bursa Securities has, via its letter dated 2 September 2022 that the Company is required to submit
a regularisation plan by 31 August 2023. The Company had on 21 August 2023 submitted an extension of time to inform
Bursa Securities for an extension of time to submit a regularisation plan.

Review of Financial Results

In the fiscal year ended on April 30, 2023, the Group recorded a profit of RM329.104 million, which was primarily attributed
to the disposal of LSSPI.

During the same period, the Group achieved a notably higher pre-tax profit of about RM330.024 million, marking a substantial
increase compared to the previous financial year. This impressive growth was primarily a result of the profit gained from
the sale of its subsidiary, LSSPI, which occurred in the second quarter of that fiscal year.

As of 30 April 2023, the profit attributable to shareholders at the Group level reached an approximate value of RM329.1
million, contributing to an earning per share of approximately RM1.71.

The Company does not have any business and operations as at the end of the financial year ended 30 April 2023. Thus,
there will be no revenue generated until the Company regularises its condition.

were not substantially affected by any item, transaction or event of a material and
unusual nature; and

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT


TO THE MEMBERS OF

SCGM BHD
(Incorporated in Malaysia)
Company No: 200701021012 (779028 H)

Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of SCGM Bhd (“the Company”), which comprise the
statements of financial position as at 30 April 2023 of the Group and of the Company, and the
statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, statements of changes in equity and
statements of cash flows of the Group and of the Company for the financial year then ended, and notes
to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, as set out on pages
32 to 105.

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position
of the Group and of the Company as at 30 April 2023, and of their financial performance and cash
flows for the financial year then ended in accordance with Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards
(“MFRSs”), International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”) and the requirements of the
Companies Act 2016 in Malaysia.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia and
International Standards on Auditing (“ISAs”). Our responsibilities under those standards are further
described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our
report. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a
basis for our opinion.

Independence and Other Ethical Responsibilities

We are independent of the Company in accordance with the By-Laws (on Professional Ethics, Conduct
and Practice) of the Malaysian Institute of Accountants (“By-Laws”) and the International Ethics
Standards Board for Accountants’ International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants
(including International Independence Standards) (“IESBA Code”), and we have fulfilled our other
ethical responsibilities in accordance with the By-Laws and the IESBA Code.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in
our audit of the financial statements of the Group for the current financial year. These matters were
addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements of the Group as a whole, and in forming
our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Company No: 200701021012 (779028 H)

Key Audit Matters (cont’d)

Disposal of a subsidiary

The risk

During the financial year, the Group had disposed off its entire equity interest in a subsidiary, Lee
Soon Seng Plastic Industries Sdn. Bhd. (“LSSPI”). We identified disposal of this subsidiary as key
audit matter because it is a material transaction during the financial year, which resulted the Group
reported gain on disposal of subsidiary of RM335,669,861.

Our response

We performed the following audit procedures, among others:-


• We reviewed the Share Sale Agreement and considered the terms and conditions of the disposal
and its impact to the financial statements;
• We performed audit procedures on the statement of financial position and statement of
comprehensive income of LSSPI as at 31 August 2022;
• We recalculated the gain from disposal of LSSPI, after considering all the net assets of LSSPI on
the date of disposal and the relevant consolidation adjustments; and
• We also considered the adequacy of the Group’s disclosures on the disposal of subsidiary.

We have determined that there are no key audit matters to communicate in our report in relation to our
audit of the financial statements of the Company.

Information Other than the Financial Statements and Auditors’ Report Thereon

The Directors of the Company are responsible for the other information. The other information
comprises the information included in the annual report, but does not include the financial statements
of the Group and of the Company and our auditors’ report thereon.

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

In connection with our audit of the financial statements of the Group and of the Company, our
responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information
is materially inconsistent with the financial statements of the Group and of the Company or our
knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this
other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of Directors for the Financial Statements

The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of financial statements of the Group
and of the Company that give a true and fair view in accordance with MFRSs, IFRSs and the
requirements of the Companies Act 2016 in Malaysia. The Directors are also responsible for such
internal control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial
statements of the Group and of the Company that are free from material misstatement, whether due to
fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements of the Group and of the Company, the Directors are responsible
for assessing the Group’s and the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as
applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless
the Directors either intend to liquidate the Group or the Company or to cease operations, or have no
realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements of the Group
and of the Company as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error,
and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of
assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with approved standards on
auditing in Malaysia and ISAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.
Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the
aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on
the basis of these financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia and ISAs, we
exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:-

- Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements of the Group
and of the Company, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures
responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide
a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud
is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional
omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

- Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s and of the Company’s internal control.

Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements (cont’d)

As part of an audit in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia and ISAs, we
exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also
(cont’d):-

- Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting
estimates and related disclosures made by the Directors.

- Conclude on the appropriateness of Directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting
and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to
events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s and the Company’s ability
to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required
to draw attention in our auditors’ report to the related disclosures in the financial statements of
the Group and of the Company or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion.
Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors’ report.
However, future events or conditions may cause the Group or the Company to cease to continue
as a going concern.

- Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements of the Group
and of the Company, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements of the
Group and of the Company represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that
achieves fair presentation.

- Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities
or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial statements of the
Group. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit.
We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicated with the Directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing
of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control
that we identify during our audit.

We also provided the Directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical
requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other
matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, actions
taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied.

Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements (cont’d)

From the matters communicated with Directors, we determined those matters that were of most
significance in the audit of the financial statements of the Group and of the Company for the current
financial year and are therefore the key audit matters. We described these matters in our auditors’
report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare
circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the
adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest
benefits of such communication.

Other Matters

This report is made solely to the members of the Company, as a body, in accordance with Section 266
of the Companies Act 2016 in Malaysia and for no other purpose. We do not assume responsibility to
any other person for the content of this report.

PTD 109444, Jalan Sengkang, Kawasan Perusahaan Sri Sengkang, 81000 Kulai, Johor Darul
Takzim.

The financial statements were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors in accordance
with a resolution of the Directors on 28 August 2023.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2.1 Statement of compliance

The financial statements of the Group and of the Company have been prepared in
accordance with Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards (“MFRSs”), International
Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”) and the requirements of the Companies Act
2016 in Malaysia.

2.2 Basis of measurement

The financial statements of the Group and of the Company are prepared under
historical cost convention, unless otherwise indicated in the summary of significant
accounting policies.

Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in
exchange for goods and services.

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

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)

2.2 Basis of measurement (cont’d)

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 market 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 and the Company use valuation techniques that are appropriate in the
circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value,
maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of
unobservable inputs.

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial
statements are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based
on the lowest level input that is significant to their 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 their fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable.
Level 3 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant
to their fair value measurement is unobservable.

For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the financial statements on a recurring
basis, the Group and the Company determine whether transfers have occurred
between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorisation (based on the lowest
level input that is significant to their fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of
each reporting period.

The Group and the Company have established control framework in respect of
measurement of fair values of financial instruments. The Board of Directors have
overall responsibility for overseeing all significant fair value measurements. The
Board of Directors regularly reviews significant unobservable inputs and valuation
adjustments.

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

2.5 Significant accounting estimates and judgements

Estimates, assumptions concerning the future and judgements are made in the
preparation of the financial statements. They affect the application of the Group’s and
the Company’s accounting policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income
and expenses, and disclosures made. Estimates and underlying assumptions are
assessed on an on-going basis and are based on experience and relevant factors,
including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances. The actual results may differ from the judgements, estimates and
assumptions made by management, and will seldom equal the estimated results.

2.5.1 Estimation uncertainty

Information about significant estimates and assumptions that have the most
significant effect on recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and
expenses are discussed below.

Provision for expected credit losses (“ECL”) for trade receivables

The Group uses a provision matrix to calculate ECLs for trade receivables. The
provision rates are based on days past due for grouping of various customer segments
that have similar loss patterns such as customer type and rating and other forms of
credit insurance.

2.5 Significant accounting estimates and judgements (cont’d)

2.5.1 Estimation uncertainty (cont’d)

Provision for expected credit losses (“ECL”) for trade receivables (cont’d)

The provision matrix is initially based on the Group’s historical observed default
rates. The Group will calibrate the matrix to adjust the historical credit loss
experience with forward-looking information on each quarterly reporting date,
whereby the historical observed default rates are updated and changes in the forward-
looking estimates are analysed.

The assessment of the correlation between historical observed rates, forecast of


economic conditions and ECL is a significant estimate. The amount of ECLs is
sensitive to changes in circumstances and forecast of economic conditions. The
historical credit loss experience and forecast of economic conditions may not be
representative of customers’ actual default rate in the future. The information about
the ECLs on the Group’s trade receivables is disclosed in Note 8 to the Financial
Statements.

Impairment of inventories

The management reviews inventories to identify damaged, obsolete and


slow-moving inventories which require judgement and changes in such estimates
could result in revision to valuation of inventories.

The carrying amount of the Group’s inventories at the end of the reporting period is
disclosed in Note 7 to the Financial Statements.

Useful lives of depreciable assets other than right-of-use assets

The management estimates the useful lives of the property, plant and equipment other
than right-of-use assets to be within 5 to 50 years and reviews the useful lives of
depreciable assets at each reporting date. At 30 April 2023, the management assesses
that the useful lives represent the expected utility of the assets to the Group. The
carrying amounts are analysed in Note 4 to the Financial Statements. Actual results,
however, may vary due to change in the expected level of usage and technological
developments, which result in adjustment to the Group’s assets.

2.5 Significant accounting estimates and judgements (cont’d)

2.5.1 Estimation uncertainty (cont’d)

Impairment of property, plant and equipment including right-of-use assets

The Group carries out impairment tests based on a variety of estimation including
value-in-use of cash-generating unit to which the property, plant and equipment
including right-of-use assets are allocated. Estimating the value-in-use requires the
Group to make an estimate of the expected future cash flows from cash-generating
unit and also to choose a suitable discount rate in order to calculate present value of
those cash flows.

Income taxes/Deferred tax liabilities

Significant judgement is involved in determining the Group-wide provision for


income taxes. There are certain transactions and computations for which the ultimate
tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business.

The Group recognises tax liabilities based on estimates of whether additional taxes
will be due. Where the final tax outcome is different from the amounts that were
initially recognised, such difference will impact the income tax and deferred tax
provisions in the period in which such determination is made.

Deferred tax assets

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

Assumptions about generation of future taxable profits depend on management’s


estimates of future cash flows. These depend on estimates of future production and
sales volume, operating costs, capital expenditure, dividends and other capital
management transactions. Judgement is also required about application of income tax
legislation. These judgements and assumptions are subject to risks and uncertainty,
hence there is a possibility that changes in circumstances will alter expectations,
which may impact the amount of deferred tax assets recognised in the statements of
financial position and the amount of unrecognised tax losses and unrecognised
temporary differences.

2.5 Significant accounting estimates and judgements (cont’d)

2.5.1 Estimation uncertainty (cont’d)

Leases – Estimating the incremental borrowing rate

The Group cannot readily determine the interest rate implicit in the lease, 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 Group 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 Group’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 weight
applied on those observation inputs).

2.5.2 Significant management judgement

The following are significant management judgements in applying the accounting


policies of the Group that have the most significant effect on the financial statements.

Deferred tax assets

The assessment of the probability of future taxable income in which deferred tax
assets can be utilised is based on the Group’s latest approved budget forecast, which
is adjusted for significant non-taxable income and expenses and specific limits to the
use of any unused tax loss or credit. The tax rules in the numerous jurisdictions in
which the Group operates are also carefully taken into consideration. If a positive
forecast of taxable income indicates the probable use of a deferred tax asset,
especially when it can be utilised without a time limit, that deferred tax asset is usually
recognised in full. The recognition of deferred tax assets that are subject to certain
legal or economic limits or uncertainties is assessed individually by management
based on the specific facts and circumstances.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Group and the Company apply the significant accounting policies, as summarised below,
consistently throughout all periods presented in the financial statements.

3.1 Consolidation

3.1.1 Subsidiary companies

Subsidiary companies are entities, including structured entities, controlled by the


Company. Control exists when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns
from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through
its power over the entity. Potential voting rights are considered when assessing
control only when such rights are substantive. Besides, the Group considers it has de
facto power over an investee when, despite not having the majority of voting rights,
it has the current ability to direct the activities of the investee that significantly affect
the investee’s return.

Investment in subsidiary companies is stated at cost in the Company’s statement of


financial position. Where an indication of impairment exists, the carrying amount of
the subsidiary companies is assessed and written down immediately to its recoverable
amount.

Upon the disposal of investment in a subsidiary, the difference between the net
disposal proceeds and its carrying amount is included in profit or loss.

3.1.2 Basis of consolidation

The Group’s financial statements consolidate the audited financial statements of the
Company and its subsidiary companies, which have been prepared in accordance with
the Group’s accounting policies. Amounts reported in the financial statements of
subsidiary companies have been adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with
the accounting policies adopted by the Group. The financial statements of the
Company and its subsidiary companies are all drawn up to the same reporting period.

All intra-group balances, income and expenses and unrealised gains and losses
resulting from intra-group transactions are eliminated in full in preparing the
consolidated financial statements.

Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the
Group and is no longer consolidated from the date that control ceases.

Changes in the Company owners’ ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result
in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions. In such circumstances,
the carrying amounts of the controlling and non-controlling interests are adjusted to
reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiary company. Any
difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interest is adjusted and
the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognised directly in equity
and attributed to owners of the Company.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)

3.1 Consolidation (cont’d)

3.1.3 Business combinations and goodwill

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The cost of
an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the consideration transferred, measured
at acquisition date fair value and the amount of any non-controlling interest in the
acquiree. For each business combination, the Group elects whether it measures the
non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the proportionate
share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. Acquisition costs incurred are expensed
and included in administration expenses.

When the Group acquires a business, it assesses the financial assets and liabilities
assumed for appropriate classification and designation in accordance with the
contractual terms, economic circumstances and pertinent conditions as at the
acquisition date. This includes the separation of embedded derivatives in host
contracts by the acquiree.

If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date fair value of
the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured to fair
value at the acquisition date through profit or loss.

Any contingent consideration to be transferred by the acquirer will be recognised at


fair value at the acquisition date. Subsequent changes in the fair value of the
contingent consideration which is deemed to be an asset or liability will be recognised
in accordance with MFRS 9 either in profit or loss or as a change to other
comprehensive income. If the contingent consideration is classified as equity, it will
not be remeasured. Subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. In instances
where the contingent consideration does not fall within the scope of MFRS 9, it is
measured in accordance with the appropriate MFRS.

Goodwill is initially measured at cost, being the excess of the aggregate of the
consideration transferred and the amount recognised for non-controlling interest over
the net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If this consideration is
lower than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is
recognised in profit or loss.

After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated


impairment losses. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a
business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the Group’s
cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the combination, irrespective
of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquiree are assigned to those units.

Where goodwill forms part of a cash-generating unit and part of the operation within
that unit is disposed of, the goodwill associated with the operation disposed of is
included in the carrying amount of the operation when determining the gain or loss
on disposal of the operation. Goodwill disposed of in this circumstance is measured
based on the relative values of the operation disposed of and the portion of the cash-
generating unit retained.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)

3.1 Consolidation (cont’d)

3.1.4 Loss of control

Upon the loss of control of a subsidiary, the Group derecognises the assets and
liabilities of the subsidiary, any non-controlling interests and the other components
of the equity related to the subsidiary. Any surplus or deficit arising on the loss of
control is recognised in profit or loss.

If the Group retains any interest in the previous subsidiary, then such interest is
measured at fair value at the date that control is lost. Subsequently, it is accounted for
as an equity accounted investee or as an available-for-sale financial asset depending
on the level of influence retained.

3.2 Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated
depreciation and any impairment losses. Depreciation is provided on the straight-line
method in order to write-off the cost of each asset over its estimated useful life.
Capital work-in-progress is not depreciated until it is completed and ready for
commercial utilisation. No depreciation is provided on freehold land.

The principal annual depreciation rates used are as follows:-

Buildings 50 years
Equipment, plant and machinery 5 – 15 years
Motor vehicles 5 years
Furniture, fittings and others 5 – 10 years

Included in equipment, plant and machinery is plant and machinery, mould, factory
equipment, electrical installation and fire extinguisher.

Included in furniture, fittings and others is renovation and electrical installation,


signboard, mobile phone, furniture and fittings, office equipment, air conditioner and
computer system.

Restoration cost relating to an item of property, plant and equipment is capitalised


only if such expenditure is expected to increase the future benefits from the existing
property, plant and equipment beyond its previously assessed standard of
performance.

Property, plant and equipment are written down to recoverable amount if, in the
opinion of the Directors, it is less than their carrying value. Recoverable amount is
the net selling price of the property, plant and equipment i.e. the amount obtainable
from the sale of an asset in an arm’s length transaction between knowledgeable,
willing parties, less the costs of disposal.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)

3.2 Property, plant and equipment (cont’d)

The residual values, useful life and depreciation method are reviewed at each
financial year end to ensure that the amount, method and period of depreciation are
consistent with previous estimates and the expected pattern of consumption of the
future economic benefits embodied in the items of property, plant and equipment.

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no


future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss
arising on derecognition of the asset is included in the profit or loss in the financial
year in which the asset is derecognised.

3.3 Capital work-in-progress

Capital work-in-progress consists of property, plant and equipment under


construction/installation for intended use as production facilities. The amount is
stated at cost and not depreciated until it is completed and ready for their intended
use.

3.4 Non-current asset held for sale and discontinued operations

Non-current assets, or disposal group comprising assets and liabilities, that are
expected to be recovered primarily through sale rather than through continuing use,
are classified as held for sale.

A component of the Group is classified as discontinued operation when the criteria


to be classified as held for sale have been met or it has been disposed of and such a
component represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of
operations, is part of a single coordinate major line of business or geographical area
of operations or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale.

Classification of the asset (or disposal group) as held for sale occurs only when the
asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms that
are usual and customary and the sale must be highly probable. Management must be
committed to a plan to sell the assets which are expected to qualify for recognition as
a completed sale within one year from the date of classification. Action required to
complete the plan should indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the
plan will be made or the plan will be withdrawn.

Immediately before classification as held for sale (or disposal group), the assets, or
components of a disposal group, are remeasured in accordance with the Group’s
accounting policies. Thereafter generally the assets, or disposal group, are measured
at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell.

Liabilities are classified as held for sale and presented as such in the statement of
financial position if they are directly associated with a disposal group.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)

3.4 Non-current asset held for sale and discontinued operations (cont’d)

Any impairment loss on a disposal group is first allocated to goodwill, and then to
remaining assets and liabilities on pro rata basis, except that no loss is allocated to
inventories, financial assets, deferred tax assets, employee benefit assets and
investment property, which continue to be measured in accordance with the Group’s
accounting policies. Impairment losses on initial classification as held for sale and
subsequent gains or losses on remeasurement are recognised in profit or loss. Gains
are not recognised in excel of any cumulative impairment loss.

In the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the
reporting period, and of the comparable period of the previous year, income and
expenses from discontinued operations are reported separately from income and
expenses from continuing operations, down to the level of profit after tax, even when
the Group retains a non-controlling interest in the subsidiary after the sale. The
resulting profit or loss (after tax) is reported separately in the statement of profit or
loss and other comprehensive income.

Intangible assets and property, plant and equipment once classified as held for sale
are not amortised or depreciated. In addition, equity accounting of equity accounted
associates ceases once classified as held for sale.

3.5 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.

3.5.1 Group as a lessee

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 recognises
lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right
to use the underlying assets.

3.5.1.1 Right-of-use assets

The Group recognises 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 recognised, initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments
made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received.

Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the
lease term and the estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows:-

Estimated useful lives


Leasehold land 68 - 99 years
Buildings 22 - 50 years

3.5.1 Group as a lessee (cont’d)

3.5.1.1 Right-of-use assets (cont’d)

If ownership of the leased asset transfers to the Group at the end of the lease term or
the cost reflects the exercise of a purchase option, depreciation is calculated using the
estimated useful life of the asset. The right-of-use assets are also subject to
impairment. Refer to the accounting policies in Section 3.12 Impairment of non-
financial assets.

3.5.1.2 Lease liabilities

At the commencement date of the lease, the Group recognises 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 the lease, if the
lease term reflects the Group exercising the option to terminate. Variable lease
payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognised as expenses (unless
they are incurred to produce inventories) in the period in which the event or condition
that triggers the payment occurs.

In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Group uses its incremental
borrowing rate at the lease commencement date because 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 lease
payments (e.g., changes to future payments resulting from a change in an index or
rate used to determine such lease payments) or a change in the assessment of an
option to purchase the underlying asset.

As a practical expedient, MFRS 16 permits a lessee not to separate non-lease


components, and instead account for any lease and associated non-lease components
as a single arrangement.

3.5.1.3 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). It also
applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases of office
equipment that are considered to be low value. Lease payments on short-term leases
and leases of low value assets are recognised as expense on a straight-line basis over
the lease term.

3.5.2 Group as a lessor

The Group classified its leases as either operating leases or finance leases. Leases
where the Group retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the
leased assets are classified as operating leases. Initial direct costs incurred in
negotiating an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset
and recognised over the lease term on the same basis as rental income.

If the Group transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to
ownership of the leased assets, leases are classified as finance leases and are
capitalised at an amount equal to the net investment in the lease.

3.6 Inventories

Inventories consist of raw materials, work-in-progress and finished goods and are
stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

Cost of raw materials is determined on the first-in-first-out method which includes


the original cost of purchase plus the incidental cost incurred in bringing the
inventories to their present location and condition. Cost of work-in-progress and
finished goods include cost of materials, direct labour and an appropriate proportion
of production overheads (based on normal operating capacity).

Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of
business less selling and distribution costs and all other estimated costs to completion.

3.7 Tax expense

Tax expense comprises current tax expense and deferred tax. Current tax expense and
deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss, except when it arises from a transaction
which is recognised directly in equity, in which case the deferred tax is also charged
or credited directly in equity, or when it arises from a business combination that is an
acquisition, in which case the deferred tax is included in the resulting goodwill.

3.7.1 Current tax

Income tax on profit or loss for the financial year comprises current tax expense and
deferred tax. Current tax expense is the expected amount of income taxes payable in
respect of the taxable profit for the financial year and is measured using the tax rates
that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

3.7.2 Deferred tax

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are provided for under the liability method at the
current tax rate in respect of all temporary differences at the reporting date between
the carrying amount of an asset or liability in the statements of financial position and
its tax base including unused tax losses and capital allowances.

3.7 Tax expense (cont’d)

3.7.2 Deferred tax (cont’d)

Deferred tax asset are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that taxable
profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be
utilised. The carrying amount of a deferred tax asset is reviewed at each reporting
date. If it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow
the benefit of part or the entired deferred tax asset to be utilised, the carrying amount
of the deferred tax asset will be reduced accordingly. When it becomes probable that
sufficient taxable profit will be available, such reductions will be reversed to the
extent of the taxable profit.

Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when
the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates that have been enacted
or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

3.7.3 Indirect taxes


The rate for sales tax is fixed at 5% or 10% while the rate for service tax is fixed at
6%.

Revenue, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of Sales and Services
Tax ("SST") except:

• where the SST incurred in a purchase of assets or services is not recoverable from
the authority, in which case the SST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition
of the assets or as part of the expense item as applicable; and
• receivables and payables that are stated with the amount of SST included.

3.8 Foreign currency transactions and balances

Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded at the functional currency


rates prevailing at the date of the transaction.

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at


the functional currency spot rate of exchange ruling at the reporting date.

All differences are taken to the profit or loss.

Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign


currency are translated using the exchange rates as at the dates of the initial
transactions. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are
translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value is determined. The
gain or loss arising in translation of non-monetary items is recognised in line with
the gain or loss of the item that gave rise to the translation difference (translation
differences on items whose gain or loss is recognised in other comprehensive income
or profit or loss is also recognised in other comprehensive income or profit or loss
respectively).

3.9 Dividends

Interim dividends are simultaneously proposed and declared, because the


Constitution of the Company grant the Directors the authority to declare interim
dividends. Consequently, interim dividends are recognised directly as a liability when
they are proposed and declared.

Final dividends proposed by the Directors are not accounted for in shareholders’
equity as an appropriation of unappropriated profit, until they have been approved by
the shareholders in a general meeting. When these dividends have been approved by
the shareholders and declared, they are recognised as a liability.

3.10 Revenue recognition

The Group and the Company recognise revenue from contracts with customers for
goods or services based on the five-step model as set out in MFRS 15 Revenue from
Contracts with Customers:-

i. Identify contracts with a customer. A contract is defined as an agreement between


two or more parties that creates enforceable rights and obligations and sets out the
criteria that must be met.
ii. Identify performance obligations in the contract. A performance obligation is a
promise in a contract with a customer to transfer goods or services to the customer
that is distinct or a series of distinct goods or services that are substantially the
same and that have the same pattern of transfer to the customer.
iii. Determine the transaction price. The transaction price is the amount of
consideration to which the Group and the Company expect to be entitled in
exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer, excluding
amounts collected on behalf of third parties.
iv. Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract. For
a contract that has more than one performance obligation, the Group and the
Company allocate transaction price to each performance obligation in an amount
that depicts the amount of consideration to which the Group and the Company
expect to be entitled in exchange for satisfying each performance obligation.
v. Recognise revenue when (or as) the Group and the Company satisfy a performance
obligation. An asset is transferred when (or as) the customer obtains control of the
asset.

3.10 Revenue recognition (cont’d)

The Group and the Company satisfy a performance obligation and recognise revenue
over time if the Group’s and the Company’s performance:-

i. Do not create an asset with an alternative use to the Group and the Company and
have an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to-date; or
ii. Create or enhance an asset that the customer controls as the asset is created or
enhanced; or
iii. Provide benefits that the customer simultaneously receives and consumes as the
Group and the Company perform.

For performance obligations where none of the above conditions are met, revenue is
recognised at a point in time at which the performance obligation is satisfied.

When the Group and the Company satisfy a performance obligation by delivering the
promised goods or services, it creates a contract based on asset on the amount of
consideration earned by the performance. Where the amount of consideration
received from a customer exceeds the amount of revenue recognised, this give rise
to a contract liability.

3.10.1 Sales of goods

All revenue is recognised at a point in time, generally on delivery of goods. An asset


is transferred when (or as) the customer obtains control of the asset. All the contracts
are completed at the adoption date. The revenue is recognised net of any related
rebates, discounts and tax. The Group and the Company shall disaggregate revenue
recognised from contracts with customers into categories that depict how the nature,
amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic
factors.

3.10.2 Revenue from other sources

Interest income is recognised as it accrued using effective interest method in profit or


loss except for interest income arising from temporary investment of borrowings
taken specifically for the purpose of obtaining a qualified asset which is accounted
for in accordance with the accounting policy on borrowing costs.

Rental income from property is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis


over the term of the lease.

3.10.3 Dividend income

Dividend income is recognised when the Company’s right to receive payments is


established.

3.11 Financial instruments

3.11.1 Financial assets

3.11.1.1 Classification

The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial


asset’s contractual cash flow characteristics and the Group’s and the Company’s
business model for managing them.

The Group and the Company classify its financial assets in the following
measurement categories:

• Those to be measured at amortised cost;


• Those to be measured at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”); and
• Those to be measured at fair value through other comprehensive income
(“FVOCI”).

During the financial year, the Group and the Company do not have any financial
assets categorised as FVTPL and FVOCI.

3.11.1.2 Recognition and derecognition

A financial asset is recognised in the statements of financial position when, and


only when, the Group and the Company become a party to the contractual
provisions of the instrument. Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets
are recognised on trade-date, the date on which the Group and the Company commit
to purchase or sell the asset.

Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the
financial assets have expired or have been transferred and the Group and the
Company have transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership. On
derecognition of a financial asset, the difference between the carrying amount
(measured at the date of derecognition) and the consideration received (including
any new asset obtained less any new liability assumed) is recognised in profit or
loss.

3.11.1.3 Initial measurement

With the exception of trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing
component or for which the Group and the Company have applied the practical
expedient, the Group and the Company initially measure a financial asset at its fair
value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss
(“FVTPL”), transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the
financial asset. Trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing
component or for which the Group and the Company have applied the practical
expedient are measured at the transaction price determined under MFRS 15.

3.11 Financial instruments (cont’d)
3.11.1 Financial assets (cont’d)

3.11.1.4 Subsequent measurement

Financial assets are subsequently classified into the following categories:-

Amortised cost

Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows
represent solely payments of principal and interest (“SPPI”) are measured at
amortised cost.

Financial assets at amortised cost are subsequently measured using effective interest
method and are subject to impairment. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or
loss when the asset is derecognised, modified or impaired.

The Group’s and the Company’s financial assets at amortised cost include trade
receivables, most of the other receivables and cash and bank balances.

3.11.1.5 Impairment of financial assets

The Group and the Company assess on a forward looking basis the expected credit
losses (“ECLs”) for all debt instruments not held at FVTPL. ECLs represent
probability-weighted estimate of the difference between the contractual cash flows
due in accordance with the contract and all cash flows that the Group and the
Company expect to receive, discounted at an approximation of the original effective
interest rate. The expected cash flows include cash flows from the sale of collateral
held or other credit enhancements that are integral to the contractual terms. The
impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant
increase in credit risk.

The measurement of ECL reflects:

• an unbiased and probability-weighted amount that is determined by evaluating


a range of possible outcomes;
• the time value of money; and
• reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue cost or
effort at the reporting date about past events, current conditions and forecasts of
future economic conditions.

ECLs are measured on either of the following basis:-

• 12-month ECLs: the portion of lifetime expected credit loss losses that result
from possible default events on a financial instrument within the 12 months after
the reporting date; and
• Lifetime ECLs: the expected credit loss that result from all possible default
events over the expected life of a financial instrument.

3.11 Financial instruments (cont’d)

3.11.1 Financial assets (cont’d)

3.11.1.5 Impairment of financial assets (cont’d)

The maximum period considered when estimating ECLs is the maximum


contractual period (including extension options) over which the Group and the
Company are exposed to credit risk.

For trade receivables, the Group and the Company apply a simplified approach in
calculating ECLs. Therefore, the Group and the Company do not track changes in
credit risk, but instead recognises a loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each
reporting date. The Group and the Company have established a provision matrix
that is based on its historical credit loss experience, adjusted for forward looking
factors specific to the debtors and economic environment.

The Group and the Company consider a trade receivable in default when fail to
make contractual payments within 180 days past due and fail to engage with the
Group and the Company on alternative payment arrangement, unless the Group and
the Company have reasonable and supportable information to demonstrate that a
more lagging default criterion is more appropriate. However, in certain cases, the
Group and the Company may also consider a trade receivable to be in default when
internal or external information indicates that the Group and the Company are
unlikely to receive the outstanding contractual amounts in full before taking into
account any credit enhancements held by the Group and the Company.

For all other financial instruments, the Group and the Company recognise a loss
allowance equal to 12-month ECLs unless there has been a significant increase in
credit risk of the financial instrument since initial recognition, in which case the loss
allowance is measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs.

ECLs are re-measured at each reporting date to reflect changes in the financial
instrument’s credit risk since initial recognition. Any change in the ECLs amount is
recognised as an impairment gain or loss in profit or loss. The Group and the
Company recognise an impairment gain or loss for all financial instruments with a
corresponding adjustment to their carrying amount through a loss allowance
account, except for investments in debt securities that are measured at fair value
through other comprehensive income (“FVTOCI”) (recycling), for which the loss
allowance is recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the fair
value reserve (recycling).

3.11.1 Financial assets (cont’d)

3.11.1.5 Impairment of financial assets (cont’d)

The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off (either partially or in
full) to the extent that there is no realistic prospect of recovery. This is generally the
case when the Group and the Company determine that the debtor does not have any
assets or sources of income that could generate sufficient cash flows to repay the
amount subject to the write-off.

3.11.2 Financial liabilities

3.11.2.1 Classification

The Group and the Company classify its financial liabilities in the following
measurement categories:-

• Those to be measured subsequently at FVTPL; and


• Those to be measured at amortised cost

3.11.2.2 Recognition and derecognition

A financial liability is recognised in the statement of financial position when, and


only when, the Group and the Company become a party to the contractual
provisions of the instrument.

A financial liability (or a part of a financial liability) from its statement of financial
position when, and only when, the obligation specified in the contract is discharged
or cancelled or expires. A financial liability is also derecognised when its terms are
modified and the cash flows of the modified liability are substantially different, in
which case, a new financial liability based on modified terms is recognised at fair
value.

On derecognition of a financial liability, the difference between the carrying amount


of the financial liability (or part of the financial liability) extinguished or transferred
to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets
transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss.

3.11.2.3 Initial measurement

The Group and the Company initially measure a financial liability at its fair value
plus, in the case of a financial liability not at FVTPL, transaction costs that are
directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial liability.

3.11 Financial instruments (cont’d)


3.11.2 Financial liabilities (cont’d)

3.11.2.4 Subsequent measurement

The subsequent measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification,


as described below:-

(i) FVTPL

Financial liabilities at FVTPL include financial liabilities that are derivatives


(except for a derivative that is a financial guarantee contract or a designated
and effective hedging instrument), contingent consideration in a business
combination and financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as at
FVTPL.

At initial recognition, the Group and the Company may irrevocably designate
a financial liability that otherwise meets the requirements to be measured at
amortised cost as at fair value through profit or loss:

• If doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch


that would otherwise arise;
• A group of financial liabilities or financial assets and financial liabilities
is managed and its performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in
accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy,
and information about the group is provided internally on that basis to
the Group’s and the Company’s key management personnel.

Derivative liabilities are initially measured at fair value and subsequently


stated at fair value, with any resultant gains or losses recognised in profit or
loss. Net gains or losses recognised on derivatives include exchange
differences.

For financial liability that is designated as at fair value through profit or loss
upon initial recognition, the Group and the Company recognise the amount of
change in the fair value of the financial liability that is attributable to changes
in the credit risk in other comprehensive income and the remaining amount
of the change in the fair value in profit or loss, unless the treatment of the
effects of changes in the liability’s credit risk would create or enlarge an
accounting mismatch.

The Group and the Company have not elected to designate any financial
liability at FVTPL.

3.11 Financial instruments (cont’d)

3.11.2 Financial liabilities (cont’d)

3.11.2.4 Subsequent measurement (cont’d)

The subsequent measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification,


as described below (cont’d):-

(ii) Amortised cost

Other financial liabilities not categorised as fair value through profit or loss
are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest
method.

Interest expense and foreign exchange gains and losses are recognised in the
profit or loss. Any gains or losses on derecognition are also recognised in the
profit or loss.

The Group’s and the Company’s financial liabilities at amortised cost include
borrowings, trade and most of the other payables. Borrowings are classified
as current liabilities unless the Group and the Company have unconditional
right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the end of
the reporting period.

3.11.3 Offsetting of financial instruments

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

3.12 Impairment of non-financial assets

At each reporting date, the Group and the Company review the carrying amounts
of non-financial assets to determine whether there is any indication of impairment.

If any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is
required, the recoverable amount is estimated and an impairment loss is recognised
whenever the recoverable amount of the asset or a cash-generating unit is less than
its carrying amount. Recoverable amount of an asset or a cash-generating unit is
the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use.

In assessing value in use, estimated future cash flows are discounted to 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 of
continuing operations are recognised in profit or loss in those expense categories
consistent with the function of the impaired asset.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)

3.12 Impairment of non-financial assets (cont’d)

An assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication


that previously recognised impairment losses for an asset other than goodwill may
no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable
amount is estimated. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if
there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable
amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would
have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been
recognised for the asset in prior years.

All reversals of impairment losses are recognised as income immediately in profit


or loss. After such a reversal, depreciation charge is adjusted in future periods to
allocate the revised carrying amount of the asset, less any residual value, on a
systematic basis over its remaining useful life.

3.13 Interest-bearing borrowings

Interest-bearing borrowings are recorded at the amount of proceeds received, net


of transaction costs incurred. Borrowing costs are recognised as an expense in
profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. However, borrowing costs
incurred to finance the construction of property, plant and equipment are
capitalised as part of the cost of those assets during the period of time that is
required to complete and prepare the assets for its intended use.

3.14 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, bank balances and short term
demand deposits which are readily convertible to known amount of cash and
which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

For the purpose of the statements of financial position, cash and cash equivalents
restricted to be used to settle a liability of 12 months or more after the reporting
date are classified as non-current asset.

3.15 Contingent liabilities

A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events and
whose existence will be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or
more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Group. It can
also be a present obligation arising from past events that is not recognised because
it is not probable that an outflow of economic resources will be required or the
amount of obligation cannot be measured reliably.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)

3.16 Equity

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of
the Group and the Company after deducting all of its liabilities. Ordinary shares are
equity instruments.

Share capital represents the nominal value of shares that have been issued.

Unappropriated profits include all current and prior period profit/loss.

All transactions with owners of the Company are recorded separately within equity.

3.17 Provision

Provisions are recognised when there is a present legal or constructive obligation that
can be estimated reliably, as a result of a past event, when it is probable that an
outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the
obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.

Any reimbursement that the Group and the Company can be virtually certain to
collect from a third party with respect to the obligation is recognised as a separate
asset. However, this asset may not exceed the amount of the related provision.

Provisions are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best
estimate. If it is no longer probable that an outflow of economic resources will be
required to settle the obligation, the provision is reversed. Where the effect of the time
value of money is material, provision are discounted using a current pre tax rate that
reflects, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is
used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance
cost.

3.18 Employee benefits

(i) Short term benefits

Wages, salaries, bonuses and social security contributions are recognised as


an expense in the financial year in which the associated services are rendered
by employees of the Group. Short term accumulating compensated absences
such as paid annual leave are recognised when services are rendered by
employees that increase their entitlement to future compensated absences,
and short term non-accumulating compensated absences such as sick leave
are recognised when the absences occur.

(ii) Defined contribution plans

Defined contribution plans are post-employment benefit plans under which


the Group pays fixed contributions into separate entities or funds and will
have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contribution if any of
the funds do not hold sufficient assets to pay all employee benefits relating to
employee services in the current and preceding financial years.

Such contributions are recognised as an expense in profit or loss as incurred.


As required by law, the Group makes such contributions to the Employees
Provident Fund (“EPF”).

3.19 Inter-segment transfers

Segment revenues, expenses and result include transfers between segments. The
prices charged on inter-segment transactions are based on negotiation basis. These
transfers are eliminated on consolidation.

3.20 Financial guarantee contracts

A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer to make specified
payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails
to make payment when due.

Financial guarantee contracts are recognised initially as a liability at fair value, net of
transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, financial guarantee contracts are
recognised as income in profit or loss over the period of the guarantee. If the debtor
fails to make payment relating to financial guarantee contract when it is due and the
Group, as the issuer, is required to reimburse the holder for the associated loss, the
liability is measured at the higher of the best estimate of the expenditure required to
settle the present obligation at the reporting date and the amount initially recognised
less cumulative amortisation.

3.21 Earnings per share

The Group presents basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) data for its ordinary
shares.

Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary


shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares
outstanding during the financial period.

Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary


shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the
effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, which comprise of convertible notes.

3.22 Related parties

A related party is a person or entity that is related to the entity that is preparing its
financial statements (“the reporting entity”). A related party transaction is a transfer
of resources, services or obligations between the reporting entity and its related party,
regardless of whether a price is charged.

(a) A person or a close member of that person’s family is related to the reporting
entity if that person:-

(i) Has control or joint control over the reporting entity;


(ii) Has significant influence over the reporting entity; or
(iii) Is a member of the key management personnel of the reporting entity.

(b) An entity is related to the reporting entity if any of the following conditions
applies:-

(ii) The entity is an associate or joint venture of the reporting entity;
(iii) Both the entity and the reporting entity are joint ventures of the same third
party;
(iv) The entity is a joint venture of a third entity and the reporting entity is an
associate of the same third entity;

3.23 Treasury shares

When issued share of the Company are repurchased, the consideration paid, including
directly attributable costs is presented as a change in equity. Repurchased shares that
have not been cancelled are classify as treasury shares and presented as a deduction
from equity. No gain or loss is recognised in the profit or loss on the sale, reissuance
or cancellation of treasury shares.

When treasury shares are distributed as share dividends, the cost of the treasury shares
is applied in the reduction of the treasury shares account or distributable reserves, or
both.

When treasury shares are reissued by resale, the difference between the sale
consideration net of directly attributable costs and the carrying amount of the treasury
shares is shown as a movement in equity.

The Group elected not to recognise lease liability for short-term leases (leases with an
expected term of 12 months or less). Payments made under such leases are expensed on a
straight-line basis. Certain variable lease payments are not permitted to be recognised as
lease liabilities and are expensed as incurred.

Variable lease payments expensed on the basis that they are not recognised as a lease liability
include excess use charges on office equipment. Variable payment terms are used for a
variety of reasons, including minimising costs for IT equipment with infrequent use. Variable
lease payments are expensed in the period they are incurred.

Foreign currency sensitivity analysis

The following table illustrates the sensitivity of profit in regards to the Group’s financial assets and financial liabilities and the RM/USD,
RM/SGD, RM/AUD, RM/EURO, RM/CNY, RM/NZD and RM/JPY exchange rates with ‘all other things being equal’.

It assumes a 1% (2022: 1%) change of the RM/USD, RM/SGD, RM/AUD, RM/EURO, RM/CNY, RM/NZD and RM/JPY exchange rates
respectively. The percentage has been determined based on the average market volatility in exchange rates in the previous 12 months. The
sensitivity analysis is based on the Group’s foreign currency denominated financial instruments held at each reporting date.

If the RM had strengthened against the USD, SGD, AUD, EURO, CNY, NZD and JPY by 1% (2022: 1%) respectively, this would have
the following impact:-

Increase/(Decrease) on profit for the financial year


USD SGD AUD EURO CNY NZD JPY Total
RM RM RM RM RM RM RM RM

2023 - - - - - - - -

2022 6,888 (104,357) (37,638) 1,693 437 - (18) (132,995)

If the RM had weakened against the USD, SGD, AUD, EURO, CNY, NZD and JPY by 1% (2022: 1%) respectively, then the impact to
profit for the financial year would be the opposite effect.
Exposures to foreign exchange rates vary during the financial year depending on the volume of overseas transactions. Nonetheless, the
analysis above is considered to be representative of the Group's exposures to foreign currency risk.

(b) Interest rate risk


Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of the Group’s
financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates.
The Group’s fixed rate borrowings are exposed to a risk of change in their fair value
due to changes in interest rates. The Group’s variable rate borrowings are exposed to
the risk of change in cash flows due to changes in interest rates. Short term
receivables and payables are not significantly exposed to interest rate risk.
The Group’s interest rate management objective is to manage interest expenses
consistent with maintaining an acceptable level of exposure to interest rate
fluctuation.

Interest rate sensitivity analysis


As at 30 April 2023, the Group is exposed to changes in market interest rates through
bank borrowings at variable interest rates. Other borrowings are at fixed interest rates.
The exposure to interest rates for the Group’s short term placement is considered
immaterial.
The interest rate profile of the Group’s significant interest-bearing financial
instruments, based on carrying amounts as at the end of the reporting period is as

Interest rate sensitivity analysis (cont’d)

The following table illustrates the sensitivity of profit to a reasonably possible change
in interest rates of +/- 100 (2022: +/- 25) basis points (“bp”). These changes are
considered to be reasonably possible based on observation of current market
conditions. The calculations are based on a change in the average market interest rates
for each period, and the financial instruments held at each reporting date that are
sensitive to changes in interest rates. All other variables are held constant.

(c) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that counterparty fails to discharge an obligation to the Group
and the Company. The Group’s and the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk
is limited to the carrying amount of financial assets recognised at the reporting date,
as summarised below:-

identified either individually or by group, and incorporate this information into its
credit risk controls. Where available at reasonable cost, external credit ratings and/or
reports on customers and other counterparties are obtained and used. The Group’s
policy is to deal only with creditworthy counterparties.

(c) Credit risk (cont’d)
The Group’s management considers that all the above financial assets that are not impaired or past due for each of the reporting dates under
review are of good credit quality. The Group and the Company do not hold collateral as security.
An impairment analysis performed at each reporting date using a provision of matrix to measure expected credit losses. The provision rates
are based on days past due for groupings of various customer segments with similar loss patterns (i.e., by product type and customer type).
The calculation reflects the probability-weighted outcome, the time value of money and reasonable and supportable information that is
available at the reporting date about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.

None of the Group's financial assets are secured by collateral or other credit enhancements and none of the carrying amount of financial
assets whose terms have been renegotiated that would otherwise be past due or impaired.
In respect of trade and other receivables, the Group is not exposed to any significant credit risk exposure to any single counterparty or any
group of counterparties having similar characteristics. Trade receivables consist of a large number of customers in various industries and
geographical areas. Based on historical information about customer default rates, the management consider the credit quality of trade
receivables that are not past due or impaired to be good.

(c) Credit risk (cont’d)

Credit risks on other receivables are mainly arising from sundry receivables and
deposits. As at the end of the reporting period, the maximum exposure to credit risk
is represented by their carrying amounts in the statements of financial position. The
Group does not consider it is necessary to recognise any allowance for impairment
losses.

The credit risk for cash and cash equivalents is considered negligible, since the
counterparties are reputable banks with high quality external credit ratings.

Financial guarantee

The maximum exposure to credit risk is amounted to RM67,220,330, represented by


the outstanding credit facilities of a subsidiary as at the end of financial year 2022.

The Company provides unsecured financial guarantees to licensed financial


institutions in respect of credit facilities and bank guarantee for utilities services
granted to the subsidiary. The Company monitors on an ongoing basis the result of
the subsidiary and repayments made by the subsidiary. As at the end of the reporting
year, there was no indication that the subsidiary would default on repayment.

The corporate guarantees do not have determinable effect on the terms of the credit
facilities due to banks requiring guarantee as a pre-condition for approving the credit
facilities granted to the subsidiary. The actual terms of the credit facilities are likely
to be the best indicator of “at market” terms and hence the fair value of the credit
facilities is equal to the credit facilities and contract bond amount received by the
subsidiary. As such, the Directors regard the value of the credit enhancement provided
by these guarantees as minimal, and the probability of default, based on historical
track records of the subsidiary receiving the guarantees are remote.

30. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities of the Group and of the
Company as at the reporting date are approximately at their fair values due to their short term
nature or they are floating rate instruments that are re-priced to market interest rates on or
near the reporting date.

The Group and the Company have not designated any financial instrument at fair value
through profit or loss or fair value through other comprehensive income and hence fair value
hierarchy is not presented.

benefits to the Group and a detailed review of non-audit fees paid to the external auditors is undertaken by the Audit
Committee. These procedures are in place to ensure that neither their independence nor their objectivity is put at
risk, and steps are taken to ensure that this does not impede the external auditors audit works. The Audit Committee
remains confident that the objectivity and independence of the external auditors are not in any way impaired by
reason of the non-audit services provided to the Group.

The Audit Committee would meet the external auditors to review the scope of audit process, the audit findings
and the audited financial statements, without any presence of the Executive Director and the Management. The
external auditors are invited to attend the Annual General Meeting of the Group and are available to the shareholders’

4. INTERNAL AUDIT FUNCTION

The internal audit function is independent of the activities or operations it audits. The principal role of the internal
audit function is to undertake regular and systematic reviews of the systems of internal control in order to provide
reasonable assurance that such systems continue to operate satisfactorily and effectively. It is ultimately the
responsibility of the internal audit function to provide the Audit Committee with independent and objective reports
on the state of internal controls of the various operating units within the Group and the extent of compliance of the
units with the Group’s established policies and procedures as well as relevant statutory requirements.

During the financial year under review, the Group outsourced its internal audit function to an independent professional
firm, Messrs NeedsBridge Advisory Sdn Bhd. The outsourced internal audit function reports directly to the Audit
Committee and assists the Board and Audit Committee in providing an independent assessment of the adequacy,
efficiency and effectiveness of the Group’s internal control system. The outsourced internal audit function is governed
by the engagement letter which states the purpose and scope of works, accountability, independence, the internal
audit function’s responsibilities and the authority accorded to the internal audit function, limitation of scope of works,
confidentiality, proposed fees and engagement team. The appointment and resignation of the internal audit function
as well as the proposed audit fees are subject to review and approval by the Audit Committee for its reporting to the
Board for ultimate approval.

The Audit Committee ensures the adequacy of the internal audit scope. The Audit Committee is to review the
proposed internal audit plan on its adequacy of coverage and scope in relation to the key business risk exposure
and risk appetite of the Group prior to its approval for execution. The approved internal audit plan was duly executed
by the outsourced internal audit function with any subsequent changes to the plan reviewed and approved by the
Audit Committee. The outsourced internal audit function tabled the report of its review to the Audit Committee
during Audit Committee meetings, highlighting its findings, recommendations, areas of improvement opportunities,
management response and action plans.

In addition, the outsourced internal audit function also carries out the follow up reviews to ascertain the status of
implementation of agreed management action plans. The results of the follow up reviews were reported to the Audit
Committee for their review and deliberation.

The Audit Committee ensured the effectiveness and adequacy of the internal audit function, including their competency
and resources allocated to the internal audit function through the review of the resources in term of qualification and
experience/exposure and continuous professional development for the employees of the outsourced internal audit
function which were tabled by the internal audit function at the Audit Committee meetings during the financial year
under review.

Based on the formal evaluation of the outsourced internal audit function and review of the works performed and
deliverables by the outsourced internal audit function during the financial year, the Audit Committee and the Board
are satisfied:-

• the scope, functions (including independence), competency, resources, authorities granted to the outsourced
internal audit function as well as internal audit plan and processes are adequate to provide the Audit Committee
with reasonable assurance that governance, risk and control structures and processes of the Group are
adequate and effective;
• with the internal audit plan, processes and the results of the internal audit and/or investigation undertaken are
adequately communicated to the Audit Committee and appropriate actions are taken on the recommendations
of the outsourced internal audit function; and
• the outsourced internal audit function had undertaken continuous professional development in order to equip
themselves with the relevant knowledge and skills to discharge their responsibilities.

Further details on the outsourced internal audit function and activities are disclosed in the Statement on Risk
Management and Internal Control set out on pages 134 to 135 of this Annual Report 2023.

STATEMENT ON RISK MANAGEMENT AND INTERNAL CONTROL

INTRODUCTION

The Board is pleased to provide the following Statement on Risk Management and Internal Control pursuant to paragraph
15.26(b) of the Main Market Listing Requirements of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad and the Malaysian Code on Corporate
Governance with guidance from the Statement on Risk Management and Internal Control: Guidelines for Directors of Listed
Issuers (“the Guidelines”).

RESPONSIBILITIES

The Board recognises the importance of good risk management practices and sound internal controls as a platform
to good corporate governance. The Board acknowledges its responsibility for maintaining a sound risk management
framework and internal control system, and ensuring its adequacy and effectiveness.

Due to inherent limitations in any risk management and internal control system, such system put into effect by management
are designed to manage rather than eliminate all the risks that may impede the achievement of the Group’s business
objectives, and as such, it can only provide reasonable but not absolute assurance against material misstatement, loss or
fraud.

The Board through its Audit Committee (“AC”) has established an ongoing process for identifying, evaluating and managing
the significant risks faced by the Group and this process includes enhancing the risk management and internal control
system as and when there are changes to the business environment and regulatory requirements. The process is reviewed
by the Board and the AC on a periodic basis.

Management assists the Board in the implementation of the Board’s policies and procedures on risk and control by
identifying and assessing the risks faced by the Group, and in the design and operation of suitable internal controls to
mitigate these risks identified.

The Board is of the view that the risk management and internal control system in place for the period under review and
up to the date of issuance of the annual report is adequate and effective to safeguard the shareholders’ investment, the
interests of customers, regulators, employees and the Group’s assets.

RISK MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK

Risk management is firmly embedded in the Group’s management system as the Board firmly believes that risk management
is critical for the Group’s sustainability and the enhancement of shareholder value. Key management staff and Heads of
Department are delegated with the responsibility to manage identified risks within defined parameters and standards.

Periodic Management Meetings which are attended by the Department Heads and key management staff are held to:

• communicate the vision, roles and direction of the Group and priorities to all the employees and key stakeholders;

• identify, assess and evaluate the key risks of the Group that affect its goals and objectives for the year under review;
and

• propose the appropriate mitigating controls and the significant risks that affect the Group’s strategic and business
plans, if any, to the Board at their scheduled meetings.

The key management staff meets regularly to review the risks faced by the Group and ensure that the existing mitigation
actions are adequate. Risks identified are prioritised in terms of likelihood of occurrence and its impact on the achievement
of the Group’s business objectives.

STATEMENT ON RISK MANAGEMENT AND INTERNAL CONTROL


(Cont’d)

INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEM

The key elements of the internal control system that provide effective governance and oversight of internal control are
described as follow:

(i) A well-defined organisational structure with clear lines of accountability and responsibilities provide a sound
framework within the organisation in facilitating check and balance for proper decision making at the appropriate
authority levels of management including matters that require the Board’s approval.

(ii) A documented delegation of authority that sets out decisions that need to be taken and the appropriate levels of
management involved including matters that require the Board’s approval.

(iii) The Board and AC meet at least once on a quarterly basis to review and deliberate on the unaudited quarterly
financial reports, annual financial statements, internal audit reports and etc. Discussions with management were
held to deliberate on the actions that are required to be taken to address internal control issues identified.

(iv) Internal policies and procedures had been established for key business units within the Group.

INTERNAL AUDIT FUNCTION

The Group had appointed an independent professional firm, NeedsBridge Advisory Sdn. Bhd. (“NBA”) to assist the Board
and AC in performing regular and systematic review and provide independent assessment on the adequacy, efficiency and
effectiveness of the Group’s risk management and internal control system. NBA is free from any relationship or conflict of
interest, which may impair their objectivity and independence of the internal audit function.

The total costs incurred in respect of the outsourced of internal audit functions for the financial year ended 30 April 2023
(“FYE2023”) was RM15,000.

During the financial year ended 2023, internal audit visits were carried out and the findings of the internal audit, including
the recommended corrective actions, were presented directly to the AC.

In addition, follow up review will be conducted to ensure that corrective actions have been implemented on a timely
manner. Based on the internal audit review conducted, none of the weaknesses noted have resulted in any material losses,
contingencies or uncertainties that would require a separate disclosure in this Annual Report.

REVIEW OF THE STATEMENT BY EXTERNAL AUDITORS

The External Auditors had reviewed this Statement on Risk Management and Internal Control for inclusion in this Annual
Report and reported to the Board that nothing has come to their attention that causes them to believe that the statement
is inconsistent with their understanding of the process adopted by the Board in reviewing the adequacy and integrity of the
system of internal control.

CONCLUSION

For the financial year under review and up to the date of approval of this statement, the Board is of the opinion that the risk
management and internal control system of the Group currently in place is adequate and effective to safeguard the Group’s
interests and assets.

In addition, the Board has received reasonable assurance from the Executive Directors that the Group’s risk management
and internal control system are adequate and operate effectively, in all material respects.

The Board will continue to assess and monitor the adequacy and effectiveness of the risk management and internal
control system of the Group and to strengthen it, as and when necessary.

This statement is made in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors dated 28 August 2023.

Explanatory Notes on Special Business

Ordinary Resolution 5 – Authority to Issue Shares

The Company wishes to renew the mandate on the authority to issue shares pursuant to Sections 75 and 76 of the Act at
the Sixteenth AGM of the Company. This is the renewal of the mandate obtained from the shareholders at the Fifteenth
AGM held on 28 September 2022 (“the previous mandate”). The previous mandate was not utilised and no proceeds were
raised.

The proposed Ordinary Resolution 5, if passed, will give flexibility to the Directors of the Company to issue shares up to a
maximum of ten per centum (10%) of the total number of issued shares of the Company at the time of submission to the
authority and for such purposes as they consider would be in the best interest of the Company without having to convene
separate general meetings. This authority, unless revoked or varied at a general meeting, will expire at the conclusion of
the next AGM of the Company. The authority will provide flexibility to the Company for any possible fund raising activities
but not limited for further placement of shares for purpose of funding current and/or future investment projects, working
capital, repayment of borrowings and/or acquisitions.

The waiver of pre-emptive rights pursuant to Section 85 of the Act will allow the Directors of the Company to issue new
shares of the Company which rank equally to existing issued shares of the Company, to any person without having to offer
new shares to all the existing shareholders of the Company prior to issuance of new shares in the Company under this
general mandate.
