Believe in Growth

Growth creates passion and passion creates growth We love what we do best at Dutch Lady Malaysia — helping Malaysians move forward in life with trusted dairy nutrition. We achieve this through embracing a passion for continuous learning and growing our talent and expertise. To stakeholders, this means we continually exceed our own standards and expectations to deliver outstanding quality nutritious dairy products.

6 chairman's statement

7
On behalf of the Board of Directors, I have pleasure in presenting the Company’s Annual Report and Audited Financial Statements for the financial year ended 31 December 2011. The Company achieved a commendable revenue growth in 2011 of RM810 million, 16% higher than the previous year. Demand for the Company’s core powder and liquid dairy products continue to be strong, helped by highly effective promotions, value-enhancing product innovations and correct strategies in the market place that drove sales. I am even more pleased to inform that in 2011, the Company achieved the highest level of profit before tax in its history, of RM141 million, 57% higher than the previous year. This is an extraordinary result as we were faced with steep increases in dairy raw material prices during the year. What this proves is that the Company has obviously put into place strategies that not only spur growth but at the same time help it overcome obstacles. The Company has certainly been active during the year. First was the integrated launch of Dutch Lady Growing up Milk with 5xDHA which really moved the needle in the mainstream Infant, Follow-on and Toddler market. The World Milk Day 2011 celebrations held in June once again saw Dutch Lady Malaysia taking the lead for the fourth time in our country for this global celebration. This time, we held the first Milk Elections that saw sweet corn winning the most popular UHT flavour by Malaysians. The success of Dutch Lady Kid and Dutch Lady School, and the Company’s involvement in the Government’s 1Malaysia School Milk programme (PS1M), helped to further grow the Company’s dairy beverage business to unprecedented levels. As the market leader in dairy, and in line with its mission of helping Malaysians move forward in life with trusted dairy nutrition, the Company embarked on an ambitious two-year sugar reduction programme. It started the campaign by introducing three products with 25% less sugar. In addition, a historic decision was made to cease the production of Sweetened Condensed Milk for the same reason. The Company intends to reduce its total sugar usage by 40% by the end of 2013. This move is consistent with our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) strategy of “Leading in providing healthy dairy nutrition”. The other pillars of our CSR strategy are: “Ensuring sustainability in the environment and business operations”, “Move society forward by giving back” – this could be seen in our many employee engagement and Dairy Development activities, and “Being the number one employer in dairy”. We are committed to further increase our investments in CSR in 2012. Our emphasis on engaging and developing our employees has paid dividends. The Company’s employee engagement programme called “Passion for BLUE” has translated to better teamwork, stronger project management, and a more professional and focussed team. One of the other things that we did to improve the working environment of our staff was to move the commercial office across the road from our factory to Quill 9. The open plan in the new office, which comprise all departments except Operations, improved communications tremendously. As a responsible employer, we place a lot of attention on the safety of our workplace. This will continue to be an area of focus in 2012. On dividends, the Company has utilised all its tax credits in 2011 and will henceforth be declaring single-tier dividends. A separate announcement will be made on this and I trust that the shareholders will be satisfied with the Company’s declaration. I wish to remind shareholders though, that the payment of special interim dividends is not guaranteed but is very much dependent on the Company’s business and operational needs during the year. On behalf of the Board, I have the pleasure in extending a warm welcome to Mr. Rahul Colaco, the new Managing Director of Dutch Lady Malaysia. He is replacing Mr Bas van den Berg who will return to our holding company Royal FrieslandCampina NV in the Netherlands following his promotion to lead a newly formed operating unit within the Group. The Board of Directors is grateful for the extraordinary achievement of Mr. Bas van den Berg in driving Dutch Lady Malaysia to greater heights and wishes him every success in his new role. As always, on behalf of the Board, I would like to convey our sincere thanks to the Management, employees and business partners of the Company for their exemplary performance in 2011 and wish them even greater success in the current year.

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is a key pillar of our business strategy and continues to be an important tenet of our operating philosophy. CSR is not new to us, we have always been engaged and elements of CSR run through the veins of our Company and are central to our business. We believe in leading responsibly and creating shared values to all our stakeholders through our strategic CSR initiatives. Taking this into account, we aim to demonstrate our commitment by: • Leading in providing healthy dairy nutrition • Ensuring sustainability in the environment and our business operations • • Moving society forward by giving back



Partner in the Government’s School Milk Programme Dutch Lady Malaysia’s participation in the Program Susu 1Malaysia (PS1M) is in line with our efforts to spread the goodness of milk to school children to help them achieve optimum growth and learning. Our participation ultimately reinforces our strength as an expert in dairy nutrition. Through this partnership we provide milk to over 400,000 school children between the ages of 7 and 12 years in more than 1,500 primary schools in 2011.

Ensuring sustainability in environment and business operations
We will continue to maintain and improve our processes

Being the number one employer in dairy

through Good Manufacturing Practices, Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) System and Quality Management System (ISO 9001). In addition, we are fully committed towards our responsibility on environmental issues in the conduct of our business. Our commitment and efforts towards the environment is embodied in the ISO 14001 Environment Management System, a systematic management approach towards the environment. Our Safety, Health & Environment Policy outlines our commitment and position on this. ● Safety is paramount in all aspects of our operations We are committed in ensuring a safe environment for our employees, contractors and visitors who work on-site through our demonstration of safe work practices. Concerted efforts are continually made to create awareness on the collective responsibility among our employees for the prevention of occupational injuries and health hazards when working within our vicinity of the workplace. We have in place OHSAS 18001 (Occupational Health and Safety Assessment Series) that assist the Company in managing and controlling the health and safety risks and improving our occupational health and safety performance.

Leading in providing healthy dairy nutrition
In line with our mission of “Helping Malaysians move forward in life with trusted dairy nutrition”, we aim to continue developing products that contribute to a healthy society. The year saw the Company involved in the biggest and most in-depth nutritional study in the region, organised by our parent company. The South East Asia Nutritional study (Seanut) was launched to identify nutritional habits and gaps in knowledge among children of 12 years old and below. In Malaysia, the project is a collaboration between Dutch Lady Malaysia and Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM). ● Sugar reduction campaign In support of the Government’s sugar reduction campaign, the Company launched its own aggressive two-year plan to reduce sugar consumption via its product range. The aim is to reduce 40% of its sugar consumption (from current usage level) by 2013. It is part of our continuous efforts towards improving the nutritional profile of our products. This campaign also aims to raise the awareness and understanding of consumers’ habits related to sugar consumption by making relevant changes to the product portfolio.

Energy, water and waste management Managing water consumption is an important priority for the Company. Various water recycling improvement projects were undertaken at production plants. Our Engineering department also regularly conducts audit of leakages to avoid wastages. We made conscious efforts in improving our manufacturing processes and continuously work towards the reduction in the use of energy throughout the Company. We use natural gas in our manufacturing operations where the consumption and trend of usage is continuously monitored. We regularly made efforts to ensure we have efficient operations in place to minimise the use of natural gas. We have a systematic procedure for the disposal of marketreturned products, used packaging materials and scheduled waste. We believe all these efforts contribute to a cleaner and greener environment.

● Halal Standards We introduced the Halal Policy statement which spells out the Company’s commitment to provide Halal products to our consumers by adhering to Halal requirements which sets high standards for hygiene, quality, safety and sanitary conditions. ● Sustainable palm oil Since January 2011, Dutch Lady Malaysia has purchased sustainable palm oil certificated in accordance with the Round Table for Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) principles and criteria.

Moving society forward by giving back
We attach great value to establishing and maintaining good relationship with our consumers, customers, shareholders, suppliers, business partners, organisations and communities in which we operate. We fully acknowledge and remain committed to conduct our business responsibly whilst contributing to society. ● Supporting local dairy farmers Dutch Lady Malaysia started its Dairy Development Programme (DDP) in 2008 in cooperation with the Department of Veterinary Service (DVS) and the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. The programme is designed to help local farmers produce better quality milk in higher volumes and helps to ensure sustainability of milk supply to us. In 2011, seven workshops on Dairy Development were conducted for local dairy farmers nationwide and DVS officials. Farmers were given access to the Dutch experts brought in for the workshops and the DDP became a good platform for farmers to network and share their ideas with the DVS officials and vice versa. As a result of this programme, the quality and volume of local fresh milk has improved.



Foqus quality system The Royal FrieslandCampina Group safeguards food safety and food quality with Foqus – a broad-based quality system that is applicable for both the farms of the member dairy farmers and FrieslandCampina’s production and distribution facilities. Foqus supports the Company in the development of an increasingly robust production process. With Foqus audit implementation conducted in 2011, stricter requirements are enforced to ensure all our products and the way in which they are produced meet our own high standards on food safety, quality, labour safety and environment.



Continuous Improvement Programmes In 2011, the Company implemented Lean and Six Sigma transformation programme as a continuous improvement tool. Various focused improvement programmes are conducted to reduce waste at all levels of operation processes. Waste elimination has helped to reduce cost and aids in faster operations which allows the Company to be more responsive to our customers, thereby driving growth.

The “Passion for BLUE” (PfB) change programme introduced in 2010 as a strategy to realise our goals, was improved in 2011 through stronger co-operation amongst teams in the company. The BLUE values, which is based on the Group's 'Way We Work' was coined to help build a common set of values that employees can easily remember and assimilate. It is an acronym of four key values: Believe in Growth, Look Forward, Unite as One Team and Excel in Execution. Culture Club, a group of select employees formed in 2010, continues to support the Company’s objective of driving the BLUE values among our employees through various employee engagement activities. ● Employee engagement We pride ourselves on ensuring open two-way communication channels are available to all employees. To facilitate better understanding of the Company’s objectives and directions, we ensure line of sight through various face-to-face communications, town hall sessions, monthly MD podcasts, employees’ newsletter known as SUARA and a regularly updated employee portal. We have organised various employee engagement initiatives, ranging from trainings to social gatherings like the Family Day in September as well as recreational activities through the Dutch Lady Sports and Social Club. We continue to recognise our employees through various employee recognition programmes.

It is important for us to know if our employees believe in the Company's objectives and values, that they have a sense of belonging in the company and that they will strive for the Company. The results give us an insight on what areas we should focus to help improve the working experience for our employees. In 2011, to help improve the working environment of our employees, we moved the commercial office to Quill 9 building which is across the road from our factory. The open plan in the new office contributes to better communications and more conducive working environment ● Training and development We place highest importance in ensuring that our people are continuously equipped with the necessary skills and knowledge to keep us at the forefront of our business.

As a result, the Company will not be adopting the above FRSs, Interpretations and amendments.

1 BASIS OF PREPARATION (a) Statement of compliance
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standards (FRSs), generally accepted accounting principles and the Companies Act, 1965 in Malaysia. The following are accounting standards, amendments and interpretations of the FRS framework that have been issued by the Malaysian Accounting Standards Boards (MASB) but have not been adopted by the Company:

(b) Basis of measurement The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis other than as disclosed in the notes to the financial statements.

FRSs, Interpretations and amendments effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 july 2011 • IC Interpretation 19, Extinguishing Financial Liabilities with Equity Instruments • Amendments to IC Interpretation 14, Prepayments of a Minimum Funding Requirement

(c) Functional and presentation currency These financial statements are presented in Ringgit Malaysia (“RM”), which is the Company’s functional currency. All financial information is presented in RM and has been rounded to the nearest thousand, unless otherwise stated.

(d) Use of estimates and judgements The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with FRSs requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.

FRSs, Interpretations and amendments effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 july 2012
• FRS 124, Related Party Disclosures (revised) • Amendments to FRS 1, First-time Adoption of Financial Reporting Standards – Severe Hyperinflation and Removal of Fixed Dates for First-time Adopters • Amendments to FRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosures – Transfers of Financial Assets • Amendments to FRS 112, Income Taxes – Deferred Tax: Recovery of Underlying Assets

35 There are no significant areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgements in applying accounting policies that have significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements, other than as disclosed in Note 3 – estimation of impairment loss on property, plant and equipment and Note 11 – estimation of provision for employees’ pension contribution.

Financial assets Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables category comprises trade and other receivables and cash and cash equivalents. Financial assets categorised as loans and receivables are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. All financial assets are subject to review for impairment (see note 2(h)(i)).

2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to the periods presented in these financial statements, and have been applied consistently by the Company, unless otherwise stated.

Financial liabilities
All financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost.

(a) Foreign currency transactions
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the functional currency of the Company at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at reporting period are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are not retranslated at the end of the reporting date except for those that are measured at fair value which are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at the date that the fair value was determined. Foreign currency differences arising on retranslation are recognised in profit or loss.

(iii) Hedge accounting Cash flow hedge A cash flow hedge is a hedge of the exposure to variability in cash flows that is attributable to a particular risk associated with a recognised asset or liability or a highly probable forecast transaction and could affect the profit or loss. In a cash flow hedge, the portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument that is determined to be an effective hedge is recognised in other comprehensive income and the ineffective portion is recognised in profit or loss. Subsequently, the cumulative gain or loss recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified from equity into profit or loss in the same period or periods during which the hedged forecast cash flows affect profit or loss. If the hedge item is a non-financial asset or liability, the associated gain or loss recognised in other comprehensive income is removed from equity and included in the initial amount of the asset or liability. However, loss recognised in other comprehensive income that will not be recovered in one or more future periods is reclassified from equity into profit or loss. Cash flow hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, the hedge is no longer highly effective, the forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur or the hedge designation is revoked. If the hedge is for a forecast transaction, the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument remains in other comprehensive income until the forecast transaction occurs. When the forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, any related cumulative gain or loss recognised in other comprehensive income on the hedging instrument is reclassified from equity into profit or loss.

(b) Financial instruments (i) Initial recognition and measurement
A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised in the statement of financial position when, and only when, the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. A financial instrument is recognised initially, at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial instrument not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial instrument. An embedded derivative is recognised separately from the host contract and accounted for as a derivative if, and only if, it is not closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract and the host contract is not categorised at fair value through profit or loss. The host contract, in the event an embedded derivative is recognised separately, is accounted for in accordance with policy applicable to the nature of the host contract.

(ii) Financial instrument categories and subsequent measurement
The Company categorises financial instruments as follows:

(iv) Derecognition
A financial asset or part of it is derecognised when, and only when, the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or the financial

36 notes to the financial statements asset is transferred to another party without retaining control or substantially all risks and rewards of the asset. On derecognition of a financial asset, the difference between the carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received (including any new asset obtained less any new liability assumed) and any cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in equity is recognised in the profit or loss. A financial liability or a part of it is derecognised when, and only when, the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires. On derecognition of a financial liability, the difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in the profit or loss.

(iii) Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated over the depreciable amount, which is the cost of an asset, or other amount substituted for cost, less its residual value. Depreciation is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each part of an item of property, plant and equipment. Leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives unless it is reasonably certain that the Company will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term. Property, plant and equipment under construction are not depreciated until the assets are ready for their intended use. The estimated useful lives are as follows: 2011 • • • • • long term leasehold land buildings plant and machinery motor vehicles furniture and equipment 70 - 99 years 10 - 25 years 5 - 33 years 5 years 5 - 10 years 2010 70 - 99 years 10 - 25 years 5 - 13.3 years 5 years 5 - 10 years

(c) Property, plant and equipment (i) Recognition and measurement
Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset and any other costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to working condition for its intended use, and the costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located. The cost of selfconstructed assets also includes the cost of materials and direct labour. Purchased software that is integral to the functionality of the related equipment is capitalised as part of that equipment. When significant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment. The gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment and is recognised net within “other income” and “other expenses” respectively in profit or loss.

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed, and adjusted as appropriate at end of the reporting period. During the current financial year, the Company revised the estimated economic useful lives and accordingly, the estimated useful lives of certain buildings and plant and machinery have changed with effect from 1 January 2011 from a range of 5 – 25 years to a range of 5 – 33 years. The revision has been accounted for prospectively as a change in accounting estimates and the effect on the financial statements is to reduce depreciation charge and increase profit before taxation by RM1,831,000 for the current financial year.

(d) Leased assets (i) Finance lease
Leases in terms of which the Company assumes substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. On initial recognition, the leased asset is measured at an amount equal to the lower of its fair value and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Subsequent to initial recognition, the asset is accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy applicable to that asset. Minimum lease payments made under finance leases are apportioned between the finance expense and the reduction of the outstanding liability. The finance expense is allocated to each period during the lease term

(ii) Subsequent costs
The cost of replacing part of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in the carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Company, and its cost can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised to profit or loss. The costs of the day-to-day servicing of property, plant and equipment are recognised in profit or loss as incurred.

37 so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Contingent lease payments are accounted for by revising the minimum lease payments over the remaining term of the lease when the lease adjustment is confirmed. Leasehold land which in substance is a finance lease is classified as property, plant and equipment. The estimated useful life of computer software for the current and comparative periods is 5 years. Amortisation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and adjusted, if appropriate.

(f) Inventories
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of inventories is measured based on the first-in first-out principle and includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventories, production or conversion costs and other costs incurred in bringing them to their existing location and condition. In the case of finished goods, cost includes an appropriate share of production overheads based on normal operating capacity. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

(ii) Operating leases
Leases, where the Company does not assume substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as operating leases and the leased assets are not recognised on the statement of financial position. Payments made under operating leases are recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives received are recognised in profit or loss as an integral part of the total lease expense, over the term of the lease. Contingent rentals are charged to profit or loss in the reporting period in which they are incurred. Leasehold land which in substance is an operating lease is classified as prepaid lease payments.

(g) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash in hand, balances and deposits placed with licensed banks.

(e) Intangible assets (i) Other intangible assets
Other intangible assets that are acquired by the Company, which have finite useful lives, are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. Costs that are directly associated with identifiable computer software and that will probably generate economic benefits exceeding cost beyond one year or cost savings to the Company, and are not integral to other equipment are recognised as intangible assets. These costs include the employee costs of software development and an appropriate portion of relevant overheads.

(h) Impairment (i) Financial assets
All financial assets are assessed at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events having an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the asset. Losses expected as a result of future events, no matter how likely, are not recognised. For an investment in equity instrument, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value below its cost is an objective evidence of impairment. An impairment loss in respect of loans and receivables is recognised in profit or loss and is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of an allowance account.

(ii) Subsequent expenditure Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditure is recognised in profit or loss as incurred.

(iii) Amortisation
Other intangible assets are amortised from the date they are available for use. Amortisation is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets.

38 notes to the financial statements
(ii) Other assets The carrying amounts of other assets except for inventories are reviewed at the end of each reporting period to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets (known as cash-generating unit). The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or cashgenerating unit. An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or its related cash-generating unit exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in the profit or loss. Impairment losses recognised in respect of cashgenerating units are allocated to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the cash-generating unit (or a group of cash-generating units) on a pro rata basis. Impairment losses recognised in prior periods are assessed at the end of each reporting period for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised. Reversals of impairment losses are credited to profit or loss in the year in which the reversals are recognised.

(j) Employee benefits (i) Short term employee benefits
Short term employee benefit obligations in respect of salaries, annual bonuses, paid annual leave and sick leave are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid under short-term cash bonus if the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.

(ii) State plans
The Company’s contributions to statutory pension funds are charged to profit or loss in the financial year to which they relate. Once the contributions have been paid, the Company has no further payment obligations.

(iii) Termination benefits Termination benefits are recognised as an expense when the Company is demonstrably committed, without realistic possibility of withdrawal, to a detailed formal plan to either terminate employment before the normal retirement date, or to provide termination benefits as a result of an offer made to voluntary redundancy. Termination benefits for voluntary redundancies are recognised as expenses if the Company has made an offer encouraging voluntary redundancy, it is probable that the offer will be accepted, and the number of acceptances can be estimated reliably.

(k) Provisions
A provision is recognised if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation.

(l) Revenue and other income (i) Goods sold
Revenue from the sale of goods in the course of ordinary activities is measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns and allowances, trade discounts and volume rebates. Revenue is recognised when the significant risks and

(i) Equity instruments
Instruments classified as equity are measured at cost on initial recognition and are not remeasured subsequently.

39 rewards of ownership have been transferred to the customer, recovery of the consideration is probable, the associated costs and possible return of goods can be estimated reliably, and there is no continuing management involvement with the goods, and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. If it is probable that discounts will be granted and the amount can be measured reliably, then the discount is recognised as a reduction of revenue as the sales are recognised. and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised. A tax incentive that is not a tax base of an asset is recognised as a reduction of tax expense in profit or loss as and when it is granted and claimed. Any unutilised portion of the tax incentive is recognised as a deferred tax asset to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the unutilised tax incentive can be utilised.

(ii) Interest income
Interest income is recognised as it accrues using the effective interest method in profit or loss.

(n) Earnings per ordinary share
The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share data for its ordinary shares ("EPS"). 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 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.

(m) Income tax Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss. Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted by the end of reporting period, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous financial years. Deferred tax is recognised using the liability method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the statement of financial position and their tax bases. Deferred tax is not recognised for the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to the temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realised simultaneously. A deferred tax asset is recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which temporary difference can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at the end of each reporting period

(o) Operating segments
An operating segment is a component of the Company that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the Company’s other components. An operating segment’s operating results are reviewed regularly by the chief operating decision maker, which in this case is the Board of Directors of the Company, to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and to assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available.

52
18.4 Credit risk Credit risk is the risk of a financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company has adopted a policy of only dealing with creditworthy customers, based on careful evaluation of the customers’ financial condition and credit history, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. The Company also maintains a large number of customers so as to limit high credit concentration in a single customer. Receivables Risk management objectives, policies and processes for managing the risk Management has a credit policy in place and the exposure to credit risk is monitored on an ongoing basis. The Company performs credit evaluations on customers requiring credit over a certain amount and customers are also required to place collaterals with the Company in the forms of bank guarantees, cash deposits or property charge. During the year, the Company entered into an arrangement with a licensed financial institution to enable certain trade customers to pay goods invoiced through a corporate purchasing card issued by the financial institution. This has resulted in the financial institution assuming the debts to the Company and credit risk is effectively transferred to the financial institution. Exposure to credit risk, credit quality and collateral As at the end of the reporting period, the maximum exposure to credit risk arising from receivables is represented by the carrying amounts in the statement of financial position. Management has taken reasonable steps to ensure that receivables that are neither past due nor impaired are measured at their realisable values. A significant portion of these receivables are regular customers that have been transacting with the Company. The Company uses ageing analysis to monitor the credit quality of the receivables. Any receivables having significant balances past due more than 60 days which are deemed to have higher credit risk, are monitored individually. Receivables amounting to RM7,293,000 (2010: RM37,533,000) are secured by bank guarantees, cash deposits and customers’ properties charged to the Company. Impairment losses The ageing of trade receivables as at the end of the reporting period was: Gross RM’000 2011 Not past due Past due 0 - 30 days Past due 31 - 90 days Past due more than 90 days 18,392 4,9 1 3 1,435 8,1 7 3 32,9 1 3 2010 Not past due Past due 0 - 30 days Past due 31 - 90 days Past due more than 90 days 46,266 17,845 1,307 9,455 74,873 (9,129) (9,129) 46,266 17,845 1,307 326 65,744 (1,326) (7,871) (9,197) 18,392 4,9 1 3 109 302 23,7 1 6 Individual impairment RM’000 Collective impairment RM’000 Net RM’000

The allowance for impairment losses at year end amounting to RM7,871,000 relates to trade receivable balances which are under legal proceedings and the remaining balance relates to invoices which are considered doubtful by management. The allowance account in respect of receivables is used to record impairment losses. Unless the Company is satisfied that recovery of the amount is possible, the amount considered irrecoverable is written off against the receivable directly. Related company balances Risk management objectives, policies and processes for managing the risk The Company undertakes trade and non-trade transactions with a number of related companies. The Company monitors the repayment from its related companies on a regular basis. Exposure to credit risk, credit quality and collateral As at the end of the reporting period, the maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by their carrying amounts in the statement of financial position. The Company regularly follows up on timely settlement of the amount owing by related companies. The related companies are not required to place any collateral with the Company. Impairment losses As at the end of the reporting period, there was no indication that the amount owing by related companies are not recoverable as substantially all of these amounts are aged less than a year. 18.5 Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company’s exposure to liquidity risk arises principally from its various payables. The Company maintains a level of cash and cash equivalents and bank facilities deemed adequate by the management to ensure, as far as possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when they fall due. Maturity analysis As at the end of the reporting period, the Company has no financial liabilities other than trade and other payables of RM121,832,000 (2010 - RM99,638,000). The trade and other payables of the Company do not bear any contractual interest and are expected to be settled within 1 year.

18.6 Market risk Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and other prices that will affect the Company’s financial position or cash flows.

54
18.6.1 Currency risk The Company undertakes trade transactions denominated in foreign currencies such as United States Dollar (USD), New Zealand Dollar (NZD), Singapore Dollar (SGD), Euro (EUR), Australia Dollar (AUD), Great Britain Pound (GBP) and Thai Baht (THB) with a number of related companies and third parties, where the amounts outstanding are exposed to currency translation risks. Risk management objectives, policies and processes for managing the risk Exposures to foreign currency risk are monitored on an ongoing basis. The Company does not hedge its foreign currency risk. Exposure to foreign currency risk The Company’s exposure to foreign currency risk, based on carrying amounts as at the end of the reporting period was: Denominated in USD RM’000 2011 Amount owing by related companies Cash at bank Trade payables Amount owing to related companies (4,992) (23,400) (553) (157) (2,264) (2,697) (346) (243) (243) 7,1 74 2,599 (28,181) (553) (157) 38 (471) (346) NzD RM’000 SGD RM’000 EUR RM’000 AUD RM’000 GBP RM’000 THB RM’000

Currency risk sensitivity analysis A 10% strengthening of the RM against the following currencies at the end of the reporting period would have increased equity and post-tax profit or loss by the amounts shown below. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remained constant and ignores any impact of forecasted sales and purchases. Equity 2011 RM'000 USD EUR 1,755 202 2010 RM'000 776 424 Profit or loss 2011 RM'000 1,755 202 2010 RM'000 776 424

55
A 10% weakening of RM against the above currencies at the end of the reporting period would have had equal but opposite effect on the above currencies to the amounts shown above, on the basis that all other variables remained constant. The movements in other currency exchange rates are not expected to have any significant effect on the profit or loss.

18.6.2 Interest rate risk The Company is not exposed to a risk of change in cash flow due to changes in interest rates as the Company has no short term borrowing as of the financial year end. The Company places short term deposits with licensed banks which are not significantly exposed to risk of changes in interest rates. Short term receivables and payables are not significantly exposed to interest rate risk. 18.6.3 Other price risk Other price risk is the risk that fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices (other than those arising from interest rate risk or currency risk). Other price risk comprises equity price risk and commodity price risk. The Company is not exposed to any other price risk.

18.7 Fair values of financial instruments The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents and short term receivables and payables approximate fair values due to the relatively short term nature of these financial instruments.

19 CAPITAL MANAGEMENT The Company’s objectives when managing capital is to maintain a strong capital base and safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain future development of the business. The Board of Directors monitors the return on capital, which the Company defines as results from operating activities divided by total equity attributable to owners of the Company. The Board of Directors also monitors the level of dividends to shareholders. The Company monitors and maintains a prudent level of total equity attributable to the owners of the Company to ensure it is adequate to balance the support to future development of the business and the payment of dividends to owners of the Company. Under the requirement of Bursa Malaysia Practice Note No. 17/2005, the Company is required to maintain a shareholders’ equity equal to or not less than the 25 percent of the issued and paid-up capital and such shareholders’ equity is not less than RM40 million.

In making those risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view 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 entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the Directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. OPINION In our opinion, the financial statements have been properly drawn up in accordance with Financial Reporting Standards and the Companies Act, 1965, in Malaysia so as to give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Company as of 31 December 2011 and of its financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended.
