CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT

Dear Shareholders

2004 was indeed an eventful year. The Malaysian economy is expected to be on target to achieve a 7 percent growthfor 2004 with an outstanding 8 per cent growth in the first half of 2004 and a 6.8 percent growth in the third quarter.This was despite a more trying worldwide and regional environment with the surge in oil prices, the re-emergence ofSARS and the tsunami devastation in the third and final quarter of 2004.

For 2005, the Malaysian economy is expected to remain resilient despite a slow down in the world economy due to thehigh oil prices, inflationary pressures and potential interest rate hikes. The outlook for the timber industry is however,expected to improve with increasing demand for plantation wood as a result of worldwide pressures championingsustainable forest management practices. This coupled with the consumption trends for raw wood based productsfrom the region, notably China and Japan, is anticipated to fuel the positive outlook of the MIB Group.

On behalf of the Board, I am pleased to present this Annual Report and Financial Statements of Mangium Industries Bhdfor the financial year ended 31 December 2004.

YEAR 2004 SUMMARY AND HIGHLIGHTS

Despite the good fundamentals, the industry remains challenging. The Group recorded a turnover of RM41.9 millionand a pre-tax loss of RM9.9 million for the year under review compared to a turnover of RM25.1 million and a pre-taxloss of RM13.7 million in 2003.

The year witnessed an increase in demand for plantation grown timber, more so for operators who subscribe tosustainable forest management best practices as worldwide pressure mounts for users to be more responsible to theenvironment. The Group’s timber division recorded a turnover increase by 149% while its loss before tax shrunk by31% compared to the immediate preceding year.

It was also a year where our non-timber sector operated in an unprecedented taxing environment governed by rawmaterial price increases, the introduction of new government policies and taxes impacting liquor products, employmentof foreign workers as well as a general shrinking expenditure in advertising and printing in the local market. Despitethe unforgiving economic situation, the non-timber sector of the Group managed to pull in a modest profit. Thedistribution and blending of alcoholic beverages division’s turnover declined marginally by 6% from 2003 while profitbefore tax dropped by 5% compared to the earlier year. The printing division, however, charted a clear improvement,with turnover and profit before tax increasing by 17% and 222% respectively over 2003.

I am also pleased to report that the Group’s ongoing Corporate Restructuring Scheme has received the approval fromthe Securities Commission on 4 March 2005, rewarding the tremendous efforts put in by all parties who have toiledtirelessly till this point. As the Group now embarks on the implementation of the Scheme, we can look forward to abrighter future with an organization unimpeded by the shadow of its earlier financial obligations.

I am also happy to announce that our Joint Venture with Telaga Chipmill Sdn Bhd to build and operate a wood chip millin Telaga, Pitas is progressing smoothly, thereby securing the majority of sales of our plantation logs. With the currentincrease in both demand and prices for quality wood chips from international buyers, I am confident that Telaga ChipmillSdn Bhd will increase their off-take of logs from the Group once they commence commercial production. Thismutually beneficial joint venture will also result in the Group participating by way of profit sharing from the sales of

“Acacia Hybrid at SAFODA nursery in Telaga”

wood chips and shall contribute positively to the Group’s bottom line in the years to come. Another note worthy ofmention is that this wood chip mill project shall also directly and indirectly contribute to the development of the localsocio-economic status of the people in the area.

DIVIDENDSAfter taking into consideration of the Company’s financial position, the Board does not recommend the payment ofdividends for the financial year ended 31 December 2004.

GOING FORWARDThe MIB Group’s core emphasis will remain focused on the consolidation of existing businesses, coupled with ongoingplanning for the future. In addition to the existing plantation division, the Group’s niche businesses in printing,blending and distribution of alcoholic beverages, as well as media and content development are expected to form thekey engine of growth in the next few years.

In the meantime, to fuel growth and enhance profitability, efforts are ongoing within the Group to target markets andproducts with higher margins. 2005 will also see the Group increasing its focus on customer service and adopting moreproactive approaches in Group costs savings to negate the ever rising production costs.

The outlook for the coming financial year is one of vigilance amid concerns and hinges upon trends in world oil prices,the costs of raw materials and other global macroeconomic factors, the successful sourcing and retention of suitablekey staff, kind weather and operating conditions at our plantation among other factors.

In our effort to enhance internal controls and correspondingly, corporate governance of the Group, the Board ofDirectors has appointed a firm to carry out internal audit reviews of companies in the Group. The internal auditors shallreport their findings and recommendations to the Audit Committee after conducting their audits to assist thecommittee in formulating strategies and plans to further enhance and improve internal controls and operatingefficiencies of the Group.

OUR HEARTFELT THANKS On behalf of the Board, I wish to express our appreciation to the management and staff of the Group for their hard workand dedication. Our thanks also go towards the Malaysian government, the regulatory authorities, the media, ourcustomers, shareholders, bankers, advisors and business associates for their incalculable support and assistance. On9 August 2004, Mr. Peter Wong has been designated Non Independent and Non-Executive Director. Besides that, therewere no other changes to the Board composition during the year. Having worked closely together during the past yearhas given me the added assurance that each Board member is fully committed to working towards bringing the Groupto profitability and growth in the coming years. Finally, I wish to also record my appreciation to my fellow Directors fortheir solid contribution and support during the year.

Thank you.

• There is an organisation structure with clearly defined authority lines;• Management holds weekly meetings to review operational matters which include sales and marketing,

production, debtors’ collection and cashflow. Detailed minutes are recorded during these meetings;• The Audit Committee reviews and approves the quarterly financial results. The Audit Committee reports the

quarterly financial results to the Board for their adoption and approval; and• The Board holds periodic meetings to review operations of the Company.

2. Weaknesses in Internal Control Resulting in Material LossesThere were no material losses incurred during the current financial year as a result of weaknesses in internalcontrol. The management of the Company continues to take measures to strengthen the internal controlenvironment.

Under the acquisition method of accounting, the results of the subsidiary companies acquired or disposedduring the financial year are included from the date of acquisition or up to the date of disposal. Thedifference between the acquisition cost and the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary companies at the date of acquisition is reflected as goodwill or reserve on consolidation as appropriate.

Under the merger method of accounting, the results of the subsidiary companies are presented as if the merger had been effected throughout the current and previous financial years.

All significant inter-company transactions are eliminated on consolidation and the consolidated financialstatements reflect external transactions only.

The cost of other property, plant and equipment comprises their purchase cost andall incidental costs of acquisition. However, such assets acquired since the last valuation are maintained atcost.

The long leasehold land is amortised over the remaining leasehold periods of between 51 to 927 years. Nodepreciation is provided on infrastructure work in progress.

Revaluation of land and buildings is undertaken every 5 years. Surplus arising from revaluation is crediteddirectly to revaluation reserve. Deficit in excess of the revaluation reserve arising from previous revaluationis charged to the income statement. In all other cases, the deficit will be charged to the income statement.

In previous years, the depreciation rate on road included in Log Yard and Infrastructure was 5%.
