fiNaNcial performaNce

For FY 2012, the Group’s consolidated revenue decreased 32% or S$2.8 million from S$8.6 million in FY 2011 to S$5.8 million in FY 2012. The decrease in revenue is mainly due to closure of our Thailand plants as a result of the massive flooding in Thailand and the absence of revenue for the infrastructure project in current year.

CHAIRmAN’S mESSAGE

Dr. Wang Kai Yuen,Chairman

FY 2012 remained competitive for the Group as the global export market for storage devices was badly affected by the drop in demands for the hard disk drives (“HDD”). Together with the natural disaster in Thailand, this ultimately affected our cleaning service and clean room plastics packaging bags manufacturing business. However, after the floods in Thailand, we were able to expedite our recovery process to recognize the insurance claims earlier than expected and to resume the operations within a short period.

Net loss attributable to shareholders after taking into consideration of taxation and minority interest amounted to S$0.5 million or a decrease of 89% compared to the net loss of S$4.4 million in FY 2011.

lookiNg ahead

The business will remain challenging in FY 2013 and the Group will continue its cost cutting effort and measures to render all the subsidiaries profitable. The Group is focusing on improving on profit making subsidiaries and taking action to terminate any loss making business.

The Group will continue to promote the use of natural gas in the manufacturing and service industries for the purposes of gas cutting, heat treatment processes, powering of natural gas tractors and electrical power generation in the marine and offshore industries.

We will continue to improve on our business strategies to generate new sources of revenue and earnings for the Group, thereby enhancing shareholders’ value in the long run.

“On behalf of the Board of Directors, I am presenting the Annual Report and the Audited Financial Statements of Asian Micro Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries for the financial year ended 30 June 2012.”

REMUNERATION MATTERS

Principle 7 Procedures for Developing Remuneration PoliciesPrinciple 8 Level and Mix of RemunerationPrinciple 9 Disclosure on Remuneration

The Remuneration Committee (“RC”) comprises the following members:

Dr. Wang Kai Yuen (Chairman)Mr. Teo Kio Choon @ Chang Chiaw ChoonMr. Chue Wai Tat

Following the retirement of Dr. Wang Kai Yuen at the forthcoming AGM, he will step down as the Chairman and member of the RC.

The Committee is of the view that its current size, excluding Dr. Wang Kai Yuen, is appropriate, taking into account the nature and scope of the operations and current financial positions of the Group. Mr. Teo Kio Choon @ Chang Chiaw Choon will be appointed as the Chairman of RC, replacing Dr. Wang Kai Yuen, effective following the conclusion of the forthcoming AGM.

The principal responsibilities of the RC are:

l to review and recommend to the Board an appropriate and competitive framework of remuneration for the Board and key executives of the Group to attract, retain and motivate employees of the required caliber to manage the Company successfully;

l to determine and recommend to the Board specific remuneration packages for each Executive Director, taking into account factors including remuneration packages of Executive Directors in comparable industries as well as the performance of the Company and that of the Executive Directors;

l to review Management’s proposal of the fees for Independent Non-Executive Directors; and

l to ensure that the remuneration policies and systems of the Group supports the Group’s objectives and strategies.

The RC has adopted written terms of reference.

The remuneration package adopted for the Executive Directors is as per the service contract entered into between the respective Executive Director and the Company. The NC, together with the RC, decides on the specific remuneration package for an Executive Director upon recruitment. Thereafter, the RC reviews subsequent increments, bonuses and allowances where these payments are discretionary. No Director or member of the RC is involved in deciding his or her own remuneration. The RC reviews what compensation commitments the executive directors’ service contracts would entail in event of early termination and aims to be fair and avoid rewarding inadequate performance. The service contract may be terminated by either the Company or Executive Directors giving to the other at least 6 months prior written notice. The RC is of view that the Directors’ service contracts are not excessively long or with onerous removal clauses.

Independent Non-Executive Directors do not enter into any Service Contracts with the Company. Save for the receipt of directors’ fees and participation in the Company’s Employees Share Option Scheme, Independent Non-Executive Directors do not receive any remuneration from the Company.

Directors’ fees are set in accordance with a remuneration framework comprising basic fees, attendance fees and additional fees for serving on any of the Board Committees. Directors’ fees are approved by the shareholders of the Company as a lump sum payment at the Annual General Meeting of the Company.

No employees of the Company and its subsidiaries are related to Directors or the Chief Executive Officer whose remuneration exceeded S$150,000 during the financial year ended 30 June 2012.

ACCOUNTABILITY AND AUDIT

Principle 10 Accountability

In presenting the annual financial statements and half-yearly announcements to shareholders, it is the aim of the Board to provide the shareholders with a detailed analysis, explanation and assessment of the Group’s financial position and prospects. Management currently provides all members of the Board with appropriately detailed management accounts of the Group’s performance, position and prospects on a half-yearly and such management accounts are provided to executive directors on a monthly basis.

Principle 11 Audit CommitteePrinciple 12 Internal Control Principle 13 Internal Audit

The Audit Committee (“AC”) comprises the following members, all of whom are Independent Non-Executive Directors, appropriately qualified to discharge their responsibilities:

Dr. Wang Kai Yuen (Chairman)Mr. Teo Kio Choon @ Chang Chiaw ChoonMr. Chue Wai Tat

Following the retirement of Dr. Wang Kai Yuen at the forthcoming AGM, he will step down as Chairman and member of the AC.

The Committee is of the view that its current size, excluding Dr. Wang Kai Yuen, is appropriate, taking into account the nature and scope of the operations and current financial positions of the Group. Mr. Chue Wai Tat will be appointed as the Chairman of AC, replacing Dr. Wang Kai Yuen, effective following the conclusion of the forthcoming AGM.

The AC met twice (2) in FY2012. The principal functions of the AC are:

l to recommend to the Board of Directors the External Auditors to be nominated;

l to review the scope, audit plans, results and effectiveness of the External Auditors;

l to review any related significant findings and recommendations of the External Auditors, together with Management’s responses thereto;

l to review the adequacy of the Group’s system of internal controls, financial and management reporting systems;

l to review with Management on significant risks or exposures that exist and assesses the steps that Management has taken to minimize such risks to the Group;

l to review with Management the announcement of the interim and full-year results of the Group and its financial statements;

l to review interested party transactions as may be required by the regulatory authorities or the provisions of the Companies Act;

l to review legal and regulatory matters that may have a material impact on the financial statements and reports action and minutes of the AC to the Board of Directors with such recommendations as the AC considers appropriate; and

l to review arrangements by which staff of the Company may, in confidence, raise concerns about possible improprieties in matters of financial reporting or other matters.

Annual Report 2012 19

RepoRt on CoRpoRate GoveRnanCe

The Group has complied with Rule 712 and Rule 715 of Section B of the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited Listing Manual: Rules of Catalist.

The AC had adopted written terms of reference.

The AC has full access to and receives co-operation from the Management, and has full discretion to invite members of the management to attend its meetings. Reasonable resources have been given to enable it to discharge its functions. Minutes of the AC meetings are circulated to the Board for its information.

The AC has reviewed the audit and non-audit services provided by the external auditors, Ernst & Young LLP. The fees on audit services incurred during the reporting year are as follows:

2012$’000

Fees on audit services paid/payable to

- Auditors of the Company 104

- Other auditors 11

Fees on non-audit services paid/payable to

- Auditors of the Company 35

- Other auditors –

The AC has conducted an annual review of all non-audit services by the external auditors to satisfy itself that the nature and extent of such services will not prejudice the independence and objectivity of the external auditors and has recommended to the Board the re-appointment of Messrs Ernst & Young LLP as the auditors of the Company. The AC has met with the external auditors annually, without the presence of the Company’s management.

The Board recognizes its responsibility for the Group’s system of internal controls and the need to review its adequacy and integrity regularly in order to safeguard the Group’s assets and therefore shareholders’ investments in the Group, but recognized that no cost effective system will preclude all frauds and irregularities, as the internal control system can only mitigate but not eliminate the risks of frauds or irregularities.

The Management has put in place reasonably adequate internal control systems to provide the Board with reasonable assurance against material misstatement or loss. The Company has also implemented a whistle blowing policy which provides a mechanism for staff of the Company to in confidence, raise concerns about fraud and other possible improprieties in matters of financial reporting or other matters. In addition, the Board has also relied to a certain extent, the review by the external auditors of the Company’s internal control relevant to the Company’s preparation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view. The review conducted by the external auditors is for the purpose of designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. The auditors’ recommendations on internal accounting control weakness, if any noted during their audit, are reported to the AC. Based on the internal controls established and maintained by the Group, work performed by the external auditors and reviews performed by Management, the Board, with the concurrence of the AC, is of the opinion that the system of internal controls on financial, operational and compliance risks maintained by the Group are adequate in meeting the needs of the Group in its current business environment.

As the present scope of the Company’s activities is not substantial, the Company does not have its own internal audit department. The Company will commission an external party to conduct an independent internal audit as and when it deems fit.

The Company does not practice selective disclosure. All material and price sensitive information as well as information on the Company’s new initiatives are publicly released via SGXNET. In addition, the Company also responds to enquiries from shareholders, investors, analysts, fund managers and the press. All shareholders of the Company receive a copy of the Annual Report and Notice of Annual General Meeting (“AGM”) annually.

The Management reviews all significant control policies and procedures and highlights all significant matters to the Board and the Audit Committee.

DEALINGS IN SECURITIES

The Company has a clear policy on the trading of its shares by directors, executives and employees within the Group. The Company has adopted its own internal Code of Best Practices on Securities Transactions (“the Securities Transactions Code”). The Securities Transactions Code provides guidance to the directors and executives of the Group with regard to dealing in the Company’s shares. It emphasizes that the law on insider trading is applicable at all times, notwithstanding the window periods for dealing in the shares. The Securities Transactions Code also enables the Company to monitor such share transactions by requiring employees to report to the Company whenever they deal in the Company’s shares.

The Group issues circulars to its directors, executives and employees informing them that they must not trade in the listed securities of the Company one month before the announcement of the Group’s half-yearly and full year results and ending on the date of the announcement of such results.

The directors are required to notify the Company of any dealings in the Company’s securities (during the open window period) within two (2) business days of the transactions.

The Board is satisfied with the Group’s commitment in compliance with the Code, and on the adequacy of internal controls within the Group. The Group has complied with its Best Practices on Securities Transactions.

To the Members of Asian Micro Holdings Limited

Report on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Asian Micro Holdings Limited (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (collectively the “Group”) set out on pages 31 to 90, which comprise the balance sheets of the Group and the Company as at 30 June 2012, the statements of changes in equity of the Group and the Company and the consolidated statement of comprehensive income and consolidated cash flow statement of the Group for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation of financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with the provisions of the Singapore Companies Act, Cap. 50 (the Act) and Singapore Financial Reporting Standards, and for devising and maintaining a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide a reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorised use or disposition; and transactions are properly authorised and that they are recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of true and fair profit and loss accounts and balance sheets and to maintain accountability of assets.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Singapore Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers 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 management, 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 consolidated financial statements of the Group and the balance sheet and statement of changes in equity of the Company are properly drawn up in accordance with the provisions of the Act and Singapore Financial Reporting Standards so as to give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Group and of the Company as at 30 June 2012 and the results, changes in equity and cash flows of the Group and the changes in equity of the Company for the year ended on that date.

Emphasis of matter

We draw attention to Note 2.1 to the financial statements. The Group and the Company incurred a net loss after taxation of $468,401 and $1,489,566, respectively, for the financial year ended 30 June 2012 and as at that date, the Company’s current and total liabilities exceeded its current and total assets by $2,012,595 and $1,986,286 respectively. These factors indicate the existence of an uncertainty which may cast significant doubt about the Group’s and the Company’s ability to continue as going concerns. As discussed more fully in Note 2.1 to the financial statements, these financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis on the assumption that the Group and the Company will generate adequate cash flows from operations and continue to receive continuing financial support from two major shareholders of the Company (one of whom is also a director of the Company). Our opinion is not qualified in respect of this matter.

Report on other legal and regulatory requirements

notes to the finanCial statements30 June 2012

1. Corporate information

Asian Micro Holdings Limited is a limited liability company incorporated in Singapore and is listed on the Stock Exchange of Singapore Catalist Sponsor-Supervised regime (“Catalist”).

The registered office and principal place of business of Asian Micro Holdings Limited is located at 1 Tech Park Crescent, Tuas Tech Park, Singapore 638131.

The principal activity of the Company is that of investment holding.

The principal activities of the subsidiaries are those of transportation service of CNG refilling gas, tray washing and recycling services, manufacturing of clean room grade polythene packaging materials and trading in clean room supplies. Details of these subsidiaries are disclosed in Note 4 to the financial statements. There have been no significant changes in the nature of these activities during the financial year.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies

The consolidated financial statements of the Group and the balance sheet and statement of changes in equity of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Singapore Financial Reporting Standards (“FRS”). The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis. The financial statements are presented in Singapore Dollars (SGD or $).

2.1 Fundamental accounting concept

The Group and the Company incurred a net loss after taxation of $468,401 (2011: $4,429,060) and $1,489,566 (2011: $3,723,773), respectively for the financial year ended 30 June 2012 and as at that date, the Company’s current and total liabilities exceeded current and total assets by $2,012,595 (2011: $2,112,381) and $1,986,286 (2011: $635,870) respectively. These factors indicate the existence of an uncertainty which may affect the validity of the going concern assumption on which the accompanying financial statements are prepared.

Two of the Company’s major shareholders (one of whom is also a director of the Company) have agreed to provide continuing financial support to the Group and the Company to enable the Group and the Company to meet their obligations as and when the need arises. In addition, they have given a commitment to (i) not to recall for payment of amounts due to them and amounts due to companies controlled by them as at 30 June 2012 until such time as the Group’s cash flow enables such payment, and (ii) allow the Group to defer payments of future salaries to them and rental payable to companies controlled by them until such time as the Group’s cash flow enables such payment.

The Directors are of the view that it is appropriate to prepare these financial statements on a going concern basis on the assumption that the Group and the Company will generate adequate cash flows from operations and continue to receive continuing financial support from the two major shareholders as disclosed above.

If the Group and the Company are unable to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, the Group and the Company may be unable to discharge their liabilities in the normal course of business and adjustments may have to be made to reflect the situation that assets may need to be realised other than in the normal course of business and at amounts which could differ from the amounts at which they are currently recorded in the balance sheets. In addition, the Group and the Company may have to reclassify non-current assets and liabilities as current assets and liabilities. No such adjustments have been made to these financial statements.

2.2 Changes in accounting policies

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year except in the current financial year, the Group has adopted all the new and revised standards and Interpretations of FRS (INT FRS) that are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2011. Adoption of these standards and interpretations did not have any effect on the financial performance or position of the Group and the Company.

FRS 110 Consolidated Financial Statements 1 January 2014

FRS 111 Joint Arrangements 1 January 2014

FRS 112 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities 1 January 2014

Except for the Amendments to FRS 1 and FRS 112, the directors expect that the adoption of the standards and interpretations above will have no material impact on the financial statements in the period of initial application. The nature of the impending changes in accounting policy on adoption of the Amendments to FRS 1 and FRS 12 is described below.

Amendments to FRS 1 Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income

The Amendments to FRS 1 Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) is effective for financial periods beginning on or after 1 July 2012.

The Amendments to FRS 1 changes the grouping of items presented in OCI. Items that could be reclassified to profit or loss at a future point in time would be presented separately from items which will never be reclassified. As the Amendments only affect the presentations of items that are already recognised in OCI, the Group does not expect any impact on its financial position or performance upon adoption of this standard.

FRS 112 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities

FRS 112 is effective for financial periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014.

FRS 112 is a new and comprehensive standard on disclosure requirements for all forms of interests in other entities, including joint arrangements, associates, special purpose vehicles and other off balance sheet vehicles. FRS 112 requires an entity to disclose information that helps users of its financial statements to evaluate the nature and risks associated with its interests in other entities and the effects of those interests on its financial statements. The Group is currently determining the impact of the disclosure requirements. As this is a disclosure standard, it will have no impact to the financial position and financial performance of the Group when implemented in 2014.

2.4 Significant accounting estimates and judgements

The preparation of the Group’s financial statements requires management to make estimates, judgements and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities and the disclosures of contingent liabilities at the end of each reporting period.

However, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that could require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset or liability affected in the future periods.

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of each reporting period, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.

(i) Depreciation of plant and equipment

The costs of plant and equipment for the manufacturing activities are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the useful lives of the plant and equipment. Management estimates the useful lives of the plant and equipment to be within 1 to 10 years. These are common life expectancies applied in the industry. The carrying amount of the Group’s plant and equipment at 30 June 2012 is stated in Note 3 to the financial statements. Changes in the expected level of usage and technological developments could impact the economic useful lives and the residual values of these assets, therefore future depreciation charges could be revised.

(ii) Impairment of non-financial assets

The Group assesses whether there are any indicators of impairment for all non-financial assets at each reporting date.

An impairment exists when the carrying value of an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use.

When value in use calculations are undertaken, management estimates the expected future cash flows from the asset or cash-generating unit and chooses a suitable discounted rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows.

(iii) Impairment of loans and receivables

The Group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset is impaired. The Group considers factors such as the probability of insolvency or significant financial difficulties of the debtor and default or significant delay in payments.

Where there is objective evidence of impairment, the amount and timing of future cash flows are estimated based on historical loss experience for assets with similar credit risk characteristics. The carrying amounts of the Group’s loans and receivables at the balance sheet date are disclosed in Note 7 to the financial statements.

2.4 Significant accounting estimates and judgements (cont’d)

(iv) Income taxes

The Group has exposure to income taxes in a number of jurisdictions. 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 liabilities for expected tax issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recognised, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.

Deferred tax assets are recognised for all unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the losses 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. The carrying value of the unrecognised tax losses and unutilised capital allowances at 30 June 2012 were $10,992,151 (2011: $10,421,815) and $20,199 ( 2011: $28,000) respectively.

(v) Employee share options

The Group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. Estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions requires determining the most appropriate valuation model, which is dependent on the terms and conditions of the grant. This estimate also requires determining the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model including the expected life of the share option, volatility and dividend yield and making assumptions about them. The assumptions and models used for estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions are disclosed in Note 25.

(vi) Impairment of investment in subsidiary and associated companies

The Group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is any objective evidence that the investments in a subsidiary is impaired. To determine whether there is objective evidence of impairment, the Group considers factors such as the industry/sector performance, operational and financing cash flow. Management will exercise significant judgement to evaluate the financial conditions and business prospects of the investments.

Where there is objective evidence of impairment, the amount and timing of future cash flows are estimated based on the forecasted performance of the subsidiary company. The carrying amounts of the Group’s investments in subsidiary and associated companies at the balance sheet date are disclosed in Notes 4 and 5 to the financial statements.

(vii) Provision for warranty

The Group recognises provision for warranty in accordance with the accounting policy stated in Note 2.17. The Group has made assumptions in relation to the expected costs of repair and maintenance. At 30 June 2011, the provision of $51,797 had been reversed as the warranty period has lapsed during the year.

2.5 Basis of consolidation

(A) Basis of consolidation

Basis of consolidation from 1 January 2010

The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries as at the end of the reporting period. The financial statements of the subsidiaries used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are prepared for the same reporting date as the Company. Consistent accounting policies are applied to like transactions and events in similar circumstances.

All intra-group balances, income and expenses and unrealised gains and losses resulting from intra-group transactions and dividends are eliminated in full.

Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date of acquisition, being the date on which the Group obtains control, and continue to be consolidated until the date that such control ceases.

Losses within a subsidiary are attributed to the non-controlling interest even if that results in a deficit balance.

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

– De-recognises the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary at their carrying amounts at the date when controls is lost;

– De-recognises the carrying amount of any non-controlling interest;

– De-recognises the cumulative translation differences recorded in equity;

– Recognises the fair value of the consideration received;

– Recognises the fair value of any investment retained;

– Recognises any surplus or deficit in profit or loss; and

– Re-classifies the Group’s share of components previously recognised in other comprehensive income to profit or loss or retained earnings, as appropriate.

Basis of consolidation prior to 1 January 2010

Certain of the above-mentioned requirements were applied on a prospective basis. The following differences, however, are carried forward in certain instances from the previous basis of consolidation:

– Losses incurred by the Group were attributed to the non-controlling interest until the balance was reduced to nil. Any further losses were attributed to the Group, unless the non-controlling interest had a binding obligation to cover these. Losses prior to 1 January 2010 were not reallocated between non-controlling interest and the owners of the Company.

– Upon loss of control, the Group accounted for the investment retained at its proportionate share of net asset value at the date control was lost. The carrying value of such investments as at 1 January 2010 have not been restated.

2.5 Basis of consolidation (cont’d)

(B) Business combinations

Business combinations from 1 January 2010

Business combinations are accounted for by applying the acquisition method. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. Acquisition-related costs are recognised as expenses in the periods in which the costs are incurred and the services are received.

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.

Any contingent consideration to be transferred by the acquirer will be recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. Subsequent changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration which is deemed to be an asset or liability, will be recognised in accordance with FRS 39 either in profit or loss or as a change to other comprehensive income. If the contingent consideration is classified as equity, it is not be remeasured until it is finally settled within equity.

In business combinations achieved in stages, previously held equity interests in the acquiree are remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date and any corresponding gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss.

The Group elects for each individual business combination, whether non-controlling interest in the acquiree (if any) is recognised on the acquisition date at fair value, or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets.

Any excess of the sum of the fair value of the consideration transferred in the business combination, the amount of non-controlling interest in the acquiree (if any), and the fair value of the Group’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any), over the net fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. The accounting policy for goodwill is set out in Note 2.9(a). In instances where the latter amount exceeds the former, the excess is recognised as gain on bargain purchase in profit or loss on the acquisition date.

Business combinations prior to 1 January 2010

In comparison to the above mentioned requirements, the following differences applied:

Business combinations are accounted for by applying the purchase method. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition formed part of the acquisition costs. The non-controlling interest (formerly known as minority interest) was measured at the proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets.

Business combinations achieved in stages were accounted for as separate steps. Adjustments to those fair values relating to previously held interests are treated as a revaluation and recognised in equity. Any additional acquired share of interest did not affect previously recognised goodwill.

When the Group acquired a business, embedded derivatives separated from the host contract by the acquiree were not reassessed on acquisition unless the business combination resulted in a change in the terms of the contract that significantly modified the cash flows that otherwise would have been required under the contract.

Contingent consideration was recognised if, and only if, the Group had a present obligation, the economic outflow was more likely than not and a reliable estimate was determinable. Subsequent adjustments to the contingent consideration were recognised as part of goodwill.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies (cont’d)

2.6 Transactions with non-controlling interests

Non-controlling interest represents the equity in subsidiaries not attributable, directly or indirectly, to owners of the Company, and are presented separately in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income and within equity in the consolidated balance sheet, separately from equity attributable to owners of the Company.

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. 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.

2.7 Foreign currency

The Group’s consolidated financial statements are presented in Singapore Dollars, which is also the Company’s functional currency. Each entity in the Group determines its own functional currency and items included in the financial statements of each entity are measured using that functional currency.

(a) Transactions and balances

Transactions in foreign currencies are measured in the respective functional currencies of the Company and its subsidiaries and are recorded on initial recognition in the functional currencies at exchange rates approximating those ruling at the transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rate of exchange ruling at the end of the reporting period. 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 was determined.

Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on translating monetary items at the end of the reporting period are recognised in profit or loss except for exchange differences arising on monetary items that form part of the Group’s net investment in foreign operations, which are recognised initially in other comprehensive income and accumulated under foreign currency translation reserve in equity. The foreign currency translation reserve is reclassified from equity to profit or loss of the Group on disposal of the foreign operation.

(b) Consolidated financial statements

For consolidation purpose, the assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into SGD at the rate of exchange ruling at the end of the reporting period and their profit or loss are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transactions. The exchange differences arising on the translation are recognised in other comprehensive income. On disposal of a foreign operation, the component of other comprehensive income relating to that particular foreign operation is recognised in profit or loss.

In the case of a partial disposal without loss of control of a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation, the proportionate share of the cumulative amount of the exchange differences are re-attributed to non-controlling interest and are not recognised in profit or loss. For partial disposals of associates that are foreign operations, the proportionate share of the accumulated exchange differences is reclassified to profit or loss.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies (cont’d)

2.8 Property, plant and equipment

All items of property, plant and equipment are initially recorded at cost. Such cost includes the cost of replacing part of the property, plant and equipment and borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of a qualifying property, plant and equipment. The accounting policy for borrowing costs is set out in Note 2.19. The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised as an asset if, and only if, it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.

Subsequent to recognition, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.

Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset as follows:

Years

Furniture and fittings 5 - 10Air conditioners 3 - 10Machinery, equipment and motor vehicles 3 - 10Office equipment and computers 1 - 10Renovations and electrical installations 3 - 10

Assets under construction included in plant and equipment are not depreciated as these assets are not yet available for use.

Fully depreciated assets are retained in the financial statements until they are no longer in use.

The carrying values of property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

The residual value, useful life and depreciation method are reviewed at each financial year-end, and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

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 on derecognition of the asset is included in the income statement in the year the asset is derecognised.

2.9 Intangible assets

Goodwill

Goodwill is initially measured at cost. Following initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less 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 synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquiree are assigned to those units.

The cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually and whenever there is an indication that the cash-generating unit may be impaired, by comparing the carrying amount of the cash-generating unit, including the allocated goodwill, with the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit. Where the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognised for goodwill are not reversed in subsequent periods.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies (cont’d)

2.9 Intangible assets (cont’d)

Goodwill (cont’d)

Where goodwill forms part of a cash-generating unit and part of the operation within that cash-generating 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 fair values of the operation disposed of and the portion of the cash-generating unit retained. The Group’s goodwill was fully impaired in prior year.

2.10 Impairment of non-financial assets

The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group makes an estimate of the asset’s recoverable amount.

An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or cash-generating unit’s fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets. Where the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset 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. In determining fair value less costs to sell, recent market transactions are taken into account, if available. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded subsidiaries or other available fair value indicators.

Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss.

An assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the Group estimates the asset’s or cash-generating unit’s recoverable amount. 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 since the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increase cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised previously. Such reversal is recognised in the profit or loss.

2.11 Subsidiaries

A subsidiary is an entity over which the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from its activities.

In the Company’s separate financial statements, investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost less impairment losses.

2.12 Associates

An associate is an entity, not being a subsidiary or a joint venture, in which the Group has significant influence. An associate is equity accounted for from the date the Group obtains significant influence until the date the Group ceases to have significant influence over the associate.

The Group’s investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method. Under the equity method, the investment in associates is carried in the balance sheet at cost plus post-acquisition changes in the Group’s share of net assets of the associates. Goodwill relating to associates is included in the carrying amount of the investment and is neither amortised nor tested individually for impairment. Any excess of the Group’s share of the net fair value of the associate’s identifiable asset, liabilities and contingent liabilities over the cost of the investment is included as income in the determination of the Group’s share of results of the associate in the period in which the investment is acquired.

The profit or loss reflects the share of the results of operations of the associates. Where there has been a change recognised in other comprehensive income by the associates, the Group recognises its share of such changes in other comprehensive income. Unrealised gains and losses resulting from the transactions between the Group and the associate are eliminated to the extent of the interest in the associates. When the Group’s share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.

After application of the equity method, the Group determines whether it is necessary to recognise an additional impairment loss on the Group’s investment in its associates. The Group determines at each balance sheet date whether there is any objective evidence that the investment in the associate is impaired. If this is the case, the Group calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the associate and its carrying value and recognises the amount in the profit or loss.

The financial statements of the associate are prepared as of the same reporting date as the Company. Where necessary, adjustments are made to bring the accounting policies in line with those of the Group.

Upon loss of significant influence over the financial and operation decision in the associate, the Group measures and recognises any retained investment at its fair value. Any difference between the carrying amount of the associate upon loss of significant influence and the fair value of the aggregate of the retained investment and proceeds from disposal is recognised in profit or loss.

2.13 Financial assets

Initial recognition and measurement

Financial assets are recognised when, and only when, the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. The Group determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.

When financial assets are recognised initially, they are measured at fair value, plus, in the case of financial assets not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction costs.

Subsequent measurement

Loans and receivables

Non-derivatives financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market are classified as loans and receivables. Subsequent to initial recognition, loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less impairment. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the loans and receivables are derecognised or impaired, as well as through the amortisation process.

2.13 Financial assets (cont’d)

Available-for-sale financial assets

Available-for-sale financial assets include equity investments, which are neither classified as held for trading nor designated at fair value through profit or loss.

After initial recognition, available-for-sale financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Any gains or losses from changes in fair value of the financial asset are recognised in other comprehensive income, except that impairment losses, foreign exchange gains and losses on monetary instruments and interest calculated using the effective interest method are recognised in profit or loss. The cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified from equity to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment when the financial asset is derecognised.

Investments in equity instruments whose fair value cannot be reliably measured are measured at cost less impairment loss.

Derecognition

A financial asset is derecognised where the contractual right to receive cash flows from the asset has expired. On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and any cumulative gain or loss that has been recognised directly in other comprehensive income is recognised in profit or loss.

All regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised or derecognised on the trade date, ie the date that the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the period generally established by regulation or convention in the marketplace concern.

2.14 Impairment of financial assets

The Group assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset is impaired.

Financial assets carried at amortised cost

For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the Group first assesses individually whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for financial assets that are individually significant, or collectively for financial assets that are not individually significant. If the Group determines that no objective evidence of impairment exists for an individually assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, it includes the asset in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and collectively assesses them for impairment. Assets that are individually assessed for impairment and for which an impairment loss is, or continues to be recognised are not included in a collective assessment of impairment.

If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on loans and receivables carried at amortised cost has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of an allowance account. The impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss.

When the asset becomes uncollectible, the carrying amount of impaired financial assets is reduced directly or if an amount was charged to the allowance account, the amounts charged to the allowance account are written off against the carrying value of the financial asset.

2.14 Impairment of financial assets (cont’d)

Financial assets carried at amortised cost (cont’d)

To determine whether there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on financial assets has been incurred, the Group considers factors such as the probability of insolvency or significant financial difficulties of the debtor and default or significant delay in payments.

If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed to the extent that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its amortised cost at the reversal date. The amount of reversal is recognised in profit or loss.

Available-for-sale financial assets

In the case of equity investments classified as available-for-sale, objective evidence of impairment include (i) significant financial difficulty of the issuer or obligor, (ii) information about significant changes with an adverse effect that have taken place in the technological, market, economic or legal environment in which the issuer operates, and indicates that the cost of the investment in equity instrument may not be recovered; and (iii) a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the investment below its costs. ‘Significant’ is to be evaluated against the original cost of the investment and ‘prolonged’ against the period in which the fair value has been below its original cost.

If an available-for-sale financial asset is impaired, an amount comprising the difference between its acquisition cost (net of any principal repayment and amortisation) and its current fair value, less any impairment loss previously recognised in profit or loss, is transferred from other comprehensive income and recognised in profit or loss. Reversals of impairment losses in respect of equity instruments are not recognised in profit or loss; increase in their fair value after impairment are recognised directly in other comprehensive income.

2.15 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and at bank and demand deposits. These also include bank overdrafts that form an integral part of the Group’s cash management.

2.16 Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition are accounted for as follows:

l Raw materials – purchase costs on a first-in first-out basis;

l Finished goods and work-in-progress – costs of direct materials and labour and a proportion of manufacturing overheads based on normal operating capacity.

Where necessary, allowance is provided for damaged, obsolete and slow moving items to adjust the carrying value of inventories to the lower of cost and net realisable value.

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

2.17 Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and the amount of the obligation can be estimated reliably.

Provisions are reviewed at each balance sheet 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. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions 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.

Provision for warranty

Provisions for warranty-related costs are recognised when the product is sold or service provided.

2.18 Financial liabilities

Initial recognition and measurement

Financial liabilities are recognised when, and only when, the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. The Group determines the classification of its financial liabilities at initial recognition.

All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value plus in the case of financial liabilities not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction costs.

Subsequent measurement

After initial recognition, other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised, and through the amortisation process.

Derecognition

A financial liability is de-recognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a de-recognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in profit or loss.

2.19 Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs are recognised as expenses in the period in which they are incurred. Borrowing cost consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connections with the borrowing of funds.

2.20 Employee benefits

(i) Defined contribution plan

The Group participates in the national pension schemes as defined by the laws of the countries in which it has operations. In particular, the Singapore companies in the Group make contributions to the Central Provident Fund scheme in Singapore, a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions to defined contribution pension schemes are recognised as an expense in the period in which the related service is performed.

(ii) Employee share option plans

Employees and directors of the Group receive remuneration in the form of share options as consideration for services rendered. The cost of these equity-settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value of the options at the date on which the options are granted which takes into account market conditions and non-vesting conditions. This cost is recognised in profit or loss, with a corresponding increase in the employee share option reserve, over the vesting period. The cumulative expense recognised at each reporting date until the vesting date reflects the extent to which the vesting period has expired and the Group’s best estimate of the number of options that will ultimately vest. The charge or credit to profit or loss for a period represents the movement in cumulative expense recognised as at the beginning and end of that period and is recognised in employee benefits expense.

No expense is recognised for options that do not ultimately vest, except for options where vesting is conditional upon a market or non-vesting condition, which are treated as vested irrespective of whether or not the market condition or non-vesting condition is satisfied, provided that all other performance and/or service conditions are satisfied. In the case where the option does not vest as the result of a failure to meet a non-vesting condition that is within the control of the Group or the employee, it is accounted for as a cancellation. In such case, the amount of the compensation cost that otherwise would be recognised over the remainder of the vesting period is recognised immediately in profit or loss upon cancellation. The employee share option reserve is transferred to retained earnings upon expiry of the share option. When the options are exercised, the employee share option reserve is transferred to share capital if new shares are issued.

2.21 Leases

The determination of whether an arrangement is, or contains a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement at inception date: whether fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets or the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset, even if that right is not explicitly specified in an arrangement.

For arrangements entered into prior to 1 January 2005, the date of inception is deemed to be 1 January 2005 in accordance with the transitional requirements of INT FRS 104.

(i) As lessee

Finance leases which transfer to the Group substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the leased item, are capitalised at the inception of the lease at the fair value of the leased asset or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. Any initial direct costs are also added to the amount capitalised. Lease payments are apportioned between the finance charges and reduction of the lease liability so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are charged to profit or loss.

Capitalised leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset and the lease term, if there is no reasonable certainty that the Group will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term.

Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The aggregate benefit of incentives provided by the lessor is recognised as a reduction of rental expense over the lease term on a straight-line basis.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies (cont’d)

2.21 Leases (cont’d)

(ii) As lessor

Leases where the Group retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset are classified as operating leases. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating an operating leases are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised over the lease term on the same bases as rental income. The accounting policy for rental income is set out in Note 2.22(vi).

2.22 Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the revenue can be reliably measured, regardless of when the payment is made. Revenue is measured at the fair value of consideration received or receivable, taking into account contractually defined terms of payment and excluding taxes or duty. The Group assesses its revenue arrangements to determine if it is acting as principal or agent. The Group has concluded that it is acting as a principal in all of its revenue arrangements except for the vehicle registration services where the Group has concluded that it is acting as an agent and records revenue on net basis. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:

(i) Sale of goods

Revenue from sale of goods is recognised upon the transfer of significant risk and rewards of ownership of the goods to the customer, usually on delivery of goods. Revenue is not recognised to the extent where there are significant uncertainties regarding recovery of the consideration due, associated costs or the possible return of goods.

(ii) Tray washing and recycling services

Revenue on tray washing and recycling services is recognised when the work is completed and the recycled items are delivered to the customer.

(iii) Compressed natural gas supply products and services

Revenue on compressed natural gas supply products is recognised upon the completion of installation and commissioning of the equipment, and transfer of title and risk of the compressed natural gas to the customer, usually on delivery. Revenue on services is recognised when services are rendered.

(iv) Interest income

Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method.

(v) Management fees

Management fees are recognised when services are rendered.

(vi) Rental income

Rental income is accounted for on a straight-line basis over the leased terms.

(vii) Commission income

Commission income is recognised on accrual basis.

2.23 Taxes

(i) Current tax

Current income tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period, in the countries where the Group operates and generates taxable income.

Current income taxes are recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that the tax relates to items recognised outside profit or loss, either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate.

(ii) Deferred tax

Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on temporary differences at the end of the reporting period between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all temporary differences, except where the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss.

Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised except where the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are reassessed at the end of each reporting period and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the end of each reporting period.

Deferred tax relating to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss.

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

(iii) Sales tax

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of sales tax except:

– Where the sales tax incurred on a purchase of assets or services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the sales tax is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable; and

– Receivables and payables that are stated with the amount of sales tax included.

The net amount of sales tax recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the balance sheet.

2.24 Segment reporting

For management purposes, the Group is organised into operating segments based on their products and services which are independently managed by the respective deputy managers responsible for the performance of the respective segments under their charge. The deputy managers report directly to the CEO of the Company who regularly reviews the segment results in order to allocate resources to the segments and to assess the segment performance. Additional disclosures on each of these segments are shown in Note 31, including the factors used to identify the reportable segments and the measurement basis of segment information.

2.25 Share capital and share issue expenses

Proceeds from issuance of ordinary shares are recognised as share capital in equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of ordinary shares are deducted against share capital.

2.26 Contingencies

A contingent liability or asset is a possible obligation or asset that arises from past events and whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of uncertain future event(s) not wholly within the control of the Group.

Contingent liabilities and assets are not recognised on the balance sheet of the Group.

2.27 Related parties

A related party is defined as follows:

(a) A person or a close member of that person’s family is related to the Group and Company if that person:

(i) Has control or joint control over the Company;

(ii) Has significant influence over the Company; or

(iii) Is a member of the key management personnel of the Group or Company or of a parent of the Company.

(b) An entity is related to the Group and the Company if any of the following conditions applies:

24. Loss per share

Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the loss for the year, net of tax, attributable to owners of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year.

Diluted loss per share is calculated by dividing the loss for the year, net of tax, attributable to owners of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year plus weighted average number of ordinary shares that would be issued on the conversion of all the dilution potential shares into ordinary shares.

The following table reflects the loss and share data used in the computation of basic and diluted loss per share for the years ended 30 June:

For the year ended 30 June 2012, 26,000,000 (2011: 36,857,000) of share options granted to employees under the existing employee share option scheme have not been included in the calculation of diluted loss per share because they are anti-dilutive for the current financial year presented.

Fair value of share options granted

The fair value of share options as at the date of grant is estimated using the Binomial Option Pricing Model, taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted. The inputs to the model used for the years ended 30 June 2012 and 30 June 2011 are shown below.

2012 2011

Dividend yield % (year) 0.0 0.0Expected volatility (%) 286 121Risk-free interest rate (%) 1.14 1.6Expected life of option (years) 5.2 5.5Share price ($) 0.01 0.02

The expected life of the options is based on historical data and is not necessarily indicative of exercise patterns that may occur. The expected volatility reflects the assumption that the historical volatility is indicative of future trends, which may also not necessarily be the actual outcome.

26. Commitments and contingencies

(a) Operating lease commitments – as lessee

The Group leases certain properties under lease agreements. These leases have an average life of between 2 and 3 years with no renewal option or contingent rent provision included in the contracts. There are no restrictions placed upon the Group or the Company by entering into these leases. Operating lease payments recognised in the consolidated profit or loss during the year amounted to $510,665 (2011: $639,566).

Future minimum lease payments under non-cancellable operating leases as at 30 June are as follows:

28. Financial risk management objectives and policies (cont’d)

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of loss that may arise on outstanding financial instruments should a counterparty default on its obligations. The Group’s and the Company’s exposure to credit risk arises primarily from trade and other receivables. For other financial assets (including cash and cash equivalents), the Group and the Company minimise credit risk by dealing exclusively with high credit rating counterparties.

The Group’s objective is to seek continual revenue growth while minimising losses incurred due to increased credit risk exposure. The Group trades only with recognised and creditworthy third parties. Trade and other receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the Group’s exposure to bad debts is not significant.

Exposure to credit risk

At the balance sheet date, the Group’s and the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by:

– the carrying amount of each class of financial assets recognised in the balance sheets; and

– a nominal amount of $2,540,000 (2011: $2,540,000) relating to a corporate guarantee provided by the Company to a bank on subsidiaries’ bank facility.

Credit risk concentration profile

The Group determines concentrations of credit risk by monitoring the country and industry sector profile of its trade receivables on an on-going basis. The credit risk concentration profile of the Group’s trade receivables at the balance sheet date is as follows:

Group2012 2011

$ % of total $ % of total

By country:

Singapore 673,965 65 860,961 84Thailand 367,249 35 168,205 16

1,041,214 100 1,029,166 100

At the balance sheet date, approximately 51% (2011: 38%) of the Group’s trade receivables were due from 3 major customers.

Financial assets that are neither past due nor impaired

Trade and other receivables that are neither past due nor impaired are creditworthy debtors with good payment record with the Group. Cash and bank balances, that are neither past due nor impaired, are placed with or entered into with reputable financial institutions or companies with high credit ratings and no history of default.

Financial assets that are either past due or impaired

Information regarding financial assets that are either past due or impaired is disclosed in Note 7 (Trade and other receivables).

28. Financial risk management objectives and policies (cont’d)

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group or the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting financial obligations due to shortage of funds. The Group’s and the Company’s exposure to liquidity risk arises primarily from mismatches of the maturities of financial assets and liabilities. The Group’s and the Company’s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of stand-by credit facilities.

The table below summarises the maturity profile of the Group’s and the Company’s financial assets and liabilities at the end of the reporting period based on contractual undiscounted repayment obligations.

28. Financial risk management objectives and policies (cont’d)

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of the Group’s and the Company’s financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Group’s and the Company’s exposure to interest rate risk arises primarily from their obligations under finance lease and loan from related parties.

The Group’s and the Company’s policy is to manage interest cost using fixed rate debts.

Foreign currency risk

The Group has transactional currency exposures arising from sales or purchases that are denominated in a currency other than the respective functional currencies of Group entities, primarily SGD, THB, USD and Renminbi (RMB). The foreign currencies in which these transactions are denominated are mainly U.S Dollars (USD). Approximately 49% (2011: 37%) of the Group’s sales are denominated in foreign currencies whilst 82% (2011: 54%) of purchases are denominated in the respective functional currencies of the Group entities. The Group has trade receivables, trade payables and bills payable to bank denominated in foreign currency. At the balance sheet date, trade receivables, trade payables and bills payable to bank denominated in foreign currency balances (mainly in USD) amounted to $261,972, $126,797 and $134,533 (2011: $433,608, $122,877 and $354,547) respectively.

The Group and the Company also hold cash denominated in foreign currencies for working capital purposes. At the end of the reporting period, such foreign currency balances are mainly in USD.

The Group is also exposed to currency translation risk arising from its net investments in foreign operations, including Malaysia, People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) and Thailand. The Group’s net investments in Malaysia, PRC and Thailand are not hedged.

Sensitivity analysis for foreign currency risk

The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in the USD, with all other variables held constant, of the Group’s loss net of tax.

29. Fair value of financial instruments

(a) Fair value of financial instruments that are carried at fair value

Fair value hierarchy

The Group classifies fair value measurement using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:

n Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

n Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices), and

n Level 3 - Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs)

The Group has not classified any financial instrument under Level 1 and Level 2.

(b) Fair value of financial instruments by classes that are not carried at fair value and whose carrying amounts are reasonable approximation of fair value

Current trade and other receivables (Note 7), due from related parties (Note 8), trade and other payables (Note 10), accrued expenses (Note 13), due to subsidiaries/related parties (current) (Note 8), current loan from related parties (Note 8), obligations under finance leases (current) (Note 12) and bills payable to bank (Note 11)

The carrying amounts of these financial assets and liabilities are reasonable approximation of fair values, either due to their short-term nature or that they are floating rate instruments that are re-priced to market interest rates on or near the end of the reporting period.

(c) Fair value of financial instruments by classes that are not carried at fair value and whose carrying amounts are not reasonable approximation of fair value

Company

Finance lease obligations repayable after 1 year but within 5 years 241,270 – 232,299 –

Determination of fair value

The fair value has been determined using discounted estimated cash flows. The discount rates used are the current market incremental lending rates for similar types of leasing arrangements at the balance sheet date.

The non-current amount due to related parties (non-trade) and loan from related party have no repayment terms and are repayable only when the cash flows of the Group permits. Accordingly, the fair value of the payables are not determinable as the timing of the future cash out flows cannot be estimated reliably.

30. Capital management

The primary objective of the Group’s capital management is to ensure that it maintains adequate funds to support its business activities and to continue as a going concern.

The Group’s primary objective in capital management is to maintain on appropriate capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence, and to continue to maintain the future development and growth of the business. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may issue new shares.

There were no changes in the Group’s approach to capital management during the year.

31. Segment information

For management purposes, the Group is organised into business units based on their product and services, and has five reportable operating segments as follows:

Tray washing and recycling

Tray washing and recycling segment provides services of recycling and precision cleaning of packaging trays and media/disk cassettes used in the hard disk drive and semiconductor industries. This segment also includes precision parts cleaning and parts visual inspection as well as clean room laundry cleaning services.

Manufacturing

Manufacturing segment refers to manufacturing of clean room grade packaging products such as LDPE/HDPE bags, ESD bags and aluminum moisture barrier bags for the electronics and hard disk drive industries.

Corporate

The corporate segment is involved in Group-level corporate services.

Natural Gas Vehicle (“NGV”) related business

NGV related business segment refers to the trading of NGV related products such as bi-fuel conversion kits and cylinders and transportation of CNG refilling gas service.

Except as indicated above, no operating segments have been aggregated to form the above reportable operating segments.

Management monitors the operating results of its business units separately for the purpose of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment. Segment performance is evaluated based on operating profit or loss which in certain respects, as explained in the table below, is measured differently from operating profit or loss in the consolidated financial statements. Group financing (including finance costs) and income taxes are managed on a group basis and are not allocated to operating segments.

Transfer prices between operating segments are on an arm’s length basis in a manner similar to transactions with third parties.
