The growth rate was only 2.4% according to the World Bank’s data. The economic growth in many countries of regions remained unequal, unstable and unsustainable. However, according to the evaluation of Bloomberg that the emerging markets in Asia such as Vietnam made a surprise positively. Based on the results of the General Statistics Office of Vietnam announced in late 2015, we can see that the gross domestic product (GDP) in 2015 increased 6.68% compared to that of 2014, the highest increase during the last 5 years. According to the State Bank of Vietnam, the domestic gold market in 2015 was stable, there was balance between the supply and demand, the domestic gold price was not much affected by the factors such as the fluctuation in the world’s gold price and the fluctuation of the exchange rate between USD and VND. However, the growth figure of Vietnam economy in 2015 did not fully reflect the difficulties faced by domestic companies due to the changes in finance, market; the business activities of the economic sectors were sometimes exposed to the unstable hazards. In the gold jewelry business, the quality management and the equity in trading are always concerned. Until now there is not any organization or mechanism that can manage the transparency of products’ quality as well as the financial obligations of the free gold jewelry market. 12 Annual report PNJ - 2015 Despite of many difficulties, thanks to the internal power and the agility to seize opportunities, PNJ ship was stable overcoming every challenge in such a powerful and confident way, making ‘a year marking PNJ characteristics’ on the way of 27 years of development.

(According to “Vietnam 2015 Economic Update Report”- ANZ). The GDP of Vietnam to 2015 achieved 31 consecutive years of growth, which was only lower than the record of 39 years of China (Source: World Bank). Singapore GDP per capita (USD) 2014 CAGR (2010-2014) VIETNAM JEWELRY MARKET – BIG OPPORTUNITY FOR LEADING BRANDS 50 Annual report PNJ - 2015 4% 11,307 Hong Kong 7,590 Malaysia Vietnam 3% China 2,052 5,977 Thailand 1,582 India 3% 4% Compared with other countries in Southeast Asia and some countries with similar culture of gold consumption, the average growth of GDP per capita of Vietnam always belonged to the leading group, and it was forecasted to continue to grow rapidly in the future. Along with the general development of the economy, demand for beauty and beyond this demand is to show personal social status, are increasingly interested by Vietnamese consumers. Therefore, Vietnam is now considered to be an attractive market for the medium and high class retail brands, in which the gold jewelry brands cannot be excluded. It is not only promoted by the macroeconomic growth, the jewelry shopping demand is derived from the culture of “Gold reserve” from this generation to the other, and this is an important factor stimulating the sustainable development of the Vietnamese jewelry industry. The factors advantageous for the growth potential of the jewelry industry in general and PNJ in particular are: a. Abundant source of customers Vietnam is a country with more than 90 million people, with 70% of the population aged from 15 to 64, being in the working and consuming age. In which 51% of the population is female, creating an abundant force of jewelry shopping. b. The gold jewelry consumption per capita is low compared to that of other countries in the region According to calculation from the figures of the World Gold Council (WGC), the gold jewelry value per capita of Vietnam Nam in 2015 was 6.2 USD, only equal to 60% of Malaysia and 7% of Singapore. Besides, the consumption ratio of gold jewelry of Vietnam compared to the total gold consumption only accounted for 25%, while this rate in other countries in the region was over 50% (except Thailand: 14%). the Government is always concerned to create conditions for jewelry companies to have a favorable trading environment. One of the recent actions from the Government was Circular no. 22/2013/TT–BKHCN stipulating the quality of gold jewelry, which was valid from 01 June 2014. That the Circular no. 22 was issued contributes to increase the awareness of Vietnamese consumers on the quality of gold jewelry products. Besides, the production and circulation of gold jewelry is strictly controlled, ensuring the quality of gold jewelry products circulated in the market and creating the advantages for big and reputable brands. d. The current Vietnamese jewelry market The current Vietnamese jewelry market is highly fragmented with the majority of market share belonging to small companies who invested limitedly in brand as well as long term orientation. Meanwhile, customers are more and more fastidious, so the demand on prestigious brand is considered to be indispensable, especially when the Vietnam’s economy is developing rapidly as present. Although Vietnam is one of 15 countries with most gold consumption in the world, the majority of people in Vietnam still have the habit of buying gold bar for speculation rather than for beauty. However, along with the stability of the economy, the trend to change from buying gold bar to gold jewelry is significantly occurring. Therefore, PNJ emerges as a pioneer, creating a difference in brand and quickly has a firm foothold in the market. With the premise of brand prestige and large scale production, PNJ succeeds in the development of extensive network nationwide, then PNJ rapidly increases its market shares for several years. PNJ has proven the correctness of its long term vision by impressive growth figures and it is willing for the acceleration stage in the future. The amount of gold jewelry consumed in Vietnam continued to increase during the last 3 years, whereas the amount of gold bar strongly decreased respectively 33% and 15% in 2014 and 2015. This is the inevitable trend, suitable with the general development process of the country and it is also the forecasted potential of the domestic jewelry industry. The PNJ’s retail market share is now estimated to be 25%, increased 4% compared to the same period which left its rivals far behind. Not only that, PNJ is also evaluated to be not inferior to any company in the region from the production scale, products’ quality to the design and quality of service. c. It is an industry that needs the Government’s concern Understanding the enormous potential of the industry, Operation Management business report 51 With the great potential from the market and the available advantages, PNJ will certainly continue to strongly develop. And the most important thing is that the company has fully equipped from the strategic orientation to the management system to be able to easily turn the advantages from the market into the growth launching platform at present and in the future. Year 2015 has closed the first stage of 10-year development strategy with special events and impressive achievements in all aspects of PNJ. If 2013 – 2014 was the period of building up and consolidating management system as well as distribution network expansion, 2015 was the year to promote the strength from this innovation. 17,355 TOTAL REVENUE (BILLION VND) BUSINESS RESULTS OF 2015 – PERFORMANCE VS PLAN PLAN 2015 PERFORMANCE 2015 PERFORMANCE 2014 +/-% Yoy PERFORMANCE / PLAN (%) 8,227,568 7,697,947 7,213,329 7% 94% 976,516 1,138,350 790,172 44% 117% 12,000 25,203 48,071 -48% 210% Financial activities expenses 112,000 430,803 95,054 353% 385% Selling expenses 373,676 414,552 310,940 33% 111% Corporate management expenses 122,714 115,421 105,944 9% 94% Net profit from business activity 380,126 202,776 326,306 -38% 53% Total profit before tax 380,126 200,173 326,791 -39% 53% Profit after tax 300,000 159,619 256,571 -38% 53% 35 48 18 67% 137% NORMS 7,604 6,428 3,805 3,711 2011 2012 7,698 7,213 4,297 2013 6,036 5,275 2014 2015 1,138 1,122 Total revenue Revenue from Jewelry • Revenue increase of 7% • Jewelry revenue increase of 18% GROSS PROFIT (BILLION VND) 790 760 638 507 550 2011 508 2012 2013 Total gross profit Jewelry gross profit 2014 2015 190 165 145 132 Total revenue Gross profit from goods sale and service supply Revenue for financial activities Development of retail system 600 574 • Gross profit increase of 44%% • Jewelry gross profit increase of 46% • Jewelry profit accounting for 99% of Total gross profit Note: Among 48 new stores, there were 18 upgraded stores and 5 closed stores PROFIT BEFORE TAX OF CORE BUSINESS OUT OF TOTAL PROFIT BEFORE TAX STRUCTURE 50.6 108 40.8 40.8 NUMBER OF RETAIL STORES 148 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 -313.8 Core business activities Financial income 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 The number of stores excluding CAO Stores 52 Annual report PNJ - 2015 • The number of stores increases 16 % compared to the same period Not only exceeding the revenue and gross profit target, the company also successfully completed the network expansion plan with 37% excess to the annual target.

In which, the selling expenses increased 33% compared to the same period, aligned with network expansion speed and it was much lower than the growth of gross profit. The maintaining of the growth of NPBT of the core business activities in 2014 and 2015 was 50% and 72%, the Board of Directors and Management Board has affirmed the correctness in the strategic orientation, and this was also the big achievement of the restructure process, paving the way for a stronger and more drastic new development stage. Operation Management business report 53 THE STRUCTURE OF REVENUE AND GROSS PROFIT REFLECTED THE STRONG GROWTH OF CORE BUSINESS Revenue in 2015 reached 7,698 billion VND, an increase of 7% compared to that of 2014.

With the consistency to pursue the set objectives and strategies, the achievements in 2015, especially the retail segment was not only the pride but also the motivation to the managers and employees of PNJ contributing for stronger development stage. 1.

Instead of focusing on all product segments, since 2014, PNJ Gold has emphasized the development objective of “being the leading medium and high class jewelry brand of Vietnam”. This was one of the main reasons making the retail revenue increase in such an impressive way in 2014 and 2015, especially same store sales always maintained at over 20% growth rate. The changes helped PNJ Gold maintain the great growth rate and immediately accelerate when the market tended to recover: • Diversified marketing strategy aiming at modern customers: PNJ used to aimed at traditional customers with the identify image full of Asian characteristics, now the messages and images were used in such a diversified way and arranged according to customer channels, taste... to optimize the marketing campaigns effectiveness.

To meet the network expansion speed from 20 to 40 stores each year, which required a huge the workforce supplement of 200 to 400 employees for the whole system. So the standardization of the service quality at all stores and branches was a major challenge for most of retail companies and PNJ was not an exception.

Understanding the importance of production, Board of Management always had the investment strategy to further improve the capacity of PNJ Jewelry Factory. • About the technology: in 2015, the company continued to invest in modern machines to produce new product lines and shorten processing time. • The quality of human resources: apart from the internal training programs, the senior staff of the Factory has attended training courses abroad to update modern processing techniques from leading experts in Europe. At the same time, the Factory also officially received the technology transfer from Italian partners, including intensive training programs about production techniques. • Production capacity: Every year, Jewelry Enterprise of PNJ produced over 2 millions of products for both retail and wholesale business. In which the high-end products like diamond and gem-set jewelry required high processing workmanship as well as longer time production because it is passed more stages than. However, with the appropriate investment strategy, in 2015, the Factory has increased 75% of high-end jewelry capacity, this is also the key product lines of the company in the future. 2. FOCUS ON INVESTING IN HUMAN RESOURCES The human resources was recognized as the superior advantage of the company during the past years, and especially reflected in 2015. In 2015, PNJ was honored to be selected as Top 100 Vietnam best working environment (evaluated by Nielsen & Anphabe). • With the orientation of considering human as the foundation for development, the Management Board established a • • • • • dynamic, professional, and inspiring working environment for employees. The typical achievements gained last year were as follows: Complete the capacity dictionary for each position of employees. There was a comprehensive evaluation process about capacity of employees to assign suitably and create opportunities for the employees to promote their full capacity. There was a good treatment policy, attracting and retaining talents: The salary and bonus policy was considered annually to ensure the suitability and competitiveness compared to the general market. Training was considered as an important activity helping to develop and improve the capacity of employees. The training programs were designed periodically or unexpectedly according to the company’s demand, and there was evaluation plan of the training program for improvement in the next periods. Create a professional and solidary working environment, the company’s core value was considered as a striving objective for each individual. 3. BRAND WITH INTERNATIONAL STATURE Not only a successful year in domestic, PNJ also confirmed its reputation in international market when becoming the only brand representing Vietnamese jewelry industry to be honored at the big and prestigious awards in the region. • Within JNA Award 2015, PNJ has passed the caliber companies like Chow Tai Fook, Golden Dew, Pandora ... to win the award “Employer of the Year”. This award honors companies with impressive development in recent years, and had many contributions to jewelry industry of the country. • Also in 2015, the products and designs of PNJ were honored at the ASEAN Design Award, honoring the creativity and skilled processing techniques of the employees of PNJ. • Not only that, even in the domestic market, PNJ presented the jewelry masterpiece “Phoenix Dress” – a new Guinness record – to the international friends within Vietnam International Fashion Week. This was also the focus of the Fashion Week, creating a deep impression to the domestic and foreign fashionista. This masterpiece was made from 24 taels with more than 2,000 sophisticated details made by 30 jewelry artisans of PNJ for 240 hours, it was made entirely by the manual method. With the vision of “Becoming one of the leading jewelry companies in Asia market”, with the achievements, PNJ was proud to initially achieve its vision, create the prerequisite for stronger development steps in the future. 4. RISK MANAGEMENT Risk management to the quality of products and services: To ensure that the product sold to consumers with best quality, PNJ built a close quality control process controlled by PNJL (PNJL was licensed by Directorate for Standards and Quality for identifying the gold content). The production stage was focused on investment in both technology and workmanship of jewelry artisans: the Management Board regularly updated the modern technology trends of the world, and sent experts for training at the famous markets about jewelry processing such as Italy, Germany.... to apply and improve the production process. For the team of jewelers, the training courses and competitions were held regularly to evaluate their capacity. Through these courses and competitions, the Company could find outstanding employees timely encouragement and support. Operation Management business report 59 Risk management to the quality of human resources PNJ recruits from 200 to 300 new employees every year for Jewelry Enterprise and the retail system nationwide. To ensure the equal quality and meet the standards of staff, the Company worked with many professional consultants to complete the process of recruitment, training and capacity evaluation of Employees. After nearly two years of application, this process has shown the high efficiency when after the probation period, all new employees meet the expected results. Not only applied to new employees, during the time of working, the company always has appropriate training programs to improve the capacity of both old and new employees. The 360–degree capacity evaluation was begun in the mid 2015 to help the Management Board have a comprehensive view about the workforce to have an appropriate development strategy. Besides, this project also helped employees to judge their strengths and weaknesses to have orientation for appropriate capacity practice. Risk management to brain drain Being the leading company in the industry and famous for good training policy, that the employees of PNJ are always welcomed by its rivals is inevitable. To limit the risk of brain drain, the Company has had attractive salary and bonus policy, ensuring the competitiveness and equality to the employees. This policy is considered at the end of every year to ensure the suitability for the next year. The Management Board always cared for the spiritual life of employees, through the union activities, family festivals, … At jewelry enterprise, the company has invested the amusement park, library, area for having a break for workers. In addition, at the office of the Company there is gymnasium to serve the demand of staff. Risk management to finance Credit risk: The Company had suitable credit policies and regularly supervised the fit situation to evaluate whether the Company suffered from any credit risk or not. The debt / equity ratio was controlled at a safe rate and it tended to decrease. The risk of gold price fluctuation: PNJ controlled the average price of input and output in such a flexible way, helping the company to control the gross profit ratio at stable rate, according to the market demand and production costs instead of raw material price fluctuation. The focus on the brand strengths and the difference in design also helped the company create higher surplus for the products, and limit the risk of price fluctuation. Along with the orientation strongly focusing on the medium and high class segment, with the main product lines of diamond and gemstone, the gold proportion to the gold product value was likely to reduce because gemstone often had high value. Gemstone was also considered to have a more stable price cost price than gold. CONCLUSION The year 2015 ended with impressive achievements, we can confirm the achieved objectives as follows: Becoming the leading jewelry processor and retailer in Asia market and securing the number one position in the segment of medium and high class jewelry in Vietnam. PNJ shall continue to develop in the coming years. The corporate culture is also an important factor retaining employees: PNJ is like a big family where the members not only work but also have a close friendship, they jointly try for the common objective. With the corporate culture of “big family”, the working environment at PNJ is really an inspiring place to help employees to best promote their capacity. 60 Annual report PNJ - 2015 Operation Management business report 61 FINANCIAL REPORT HONESTY IS THE MEASUREMENT OF THE TRANSPARENCY IN EVERY ACTION, A LEADING ETHICS STANDARD THAT PNJ COMMITS TO AIM AT.

ACCOUNTING CONVENTION AND FINANCIAL YEAR 4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Accounting convention The accompanying consolidated financial statements, expressed in Vietnam Dong (“VND”), are prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with Vietnamese The significant accounting policies, which have been adopted by the Company in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements, are as follows: Phu Nhuan Jewelry Joint Stock Company (the “Parent Company”) was incorporated as a joint stock company under the Business Registration Certificate No. 0300521758 dated 2 January 2004 issued by the Department of Planning and Investment of Ho Chi Minh City, as amended. Normal production and business cycle The Company’s normal production and business cycle is carried out for a time period of 12 months or less. The Company’s structure The Parent Company’s head office is located at 170 Phan Dang Luu Street, Ward 3, Phu Nhuan District, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. In addition, the Company also has one hundred and ninety-four (194) retail shops located in various provinces and cities in Vietnam. As at 31 December 2015, the Company’s subsidiaries and associates were: • CAO Fashion Company Limited – Subsiadiary • PNJ Laboratory Company Limited – Subsiadiary • Dong A Land Joint Stock Company– Associate As at 31 December 2015, the Company also had fourty one (41) branches located in various provinces and cities in Vietnam, in which, the big branches were: • Branch of Phu Nhuan Jewelry Joint Stock CompanyBien Hoa Branch • Branch of Phu Nhuan Jewelry Joint Stock CompanyHue City • Branch of Phu Nhuan Jewelry Joint Stock Company- 72 Annual report PNJ - 2015 Form B 09-DN/HN The accompanying consolidated financial statements are not intended to present the financial position, consolidated results of operations and consolidated cash flows in accordance with accounting principles and practices generally accepted in countries and jurisdictions other than Vietnam. Financial year The Company’s financial year begins on 1 January and ends on 31 December. Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Vietnamese Accounting Standards, accounting regime for enterprises and legal regulations relating to financial reporting requires the Board of Directors to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the financial year. Although these accounting estimates are based on the Board of Directors’ best knowledge, actual results may differ from those estimates. Basis of consolidation The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Parent Company and enterprises controlled by the Parent Company (its subsidiaries) up to 31 December each year. Control is achieved where the Company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an investee enterprise so as to obtain benefits from its activities. The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated income statement from the effective date of acquisition or up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate. Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring the accounting policies used in line with those used by the Parent Company. Intragroup transactions and balances are eliminated in full on consolidation. Non-controlling interests in the net assets of consolidated subsidiaries are identified separately from the parent’s ownership interests in them. Non-controlling interests consist of the amount of those non-controlling interests at the date of the original business combination (see below) and the noncontrolling interests’ share of changes in equity since the date of the combination. Losses in subsidiaries are respectively attributed to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. Financial statements 73 DESCRIPTION OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL REPORT (Cont.) For the year ended 31 December 2015 DESCRIPTION OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL REPORT (Cont.) Form B 09-DN/HN These notes are an integral part of and should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements Business combinations On acquisition, the assets and liabilities and contingent liabilities of a subsidiary are measured at their fair values at the date of acquisition. Any excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair values of the identifiable net assets acquired is recognised as goodwill. Any deficiency of the cost of acquisition below the fair values of the identifiable net assets acquired is credited to profit and loss in the period of acquisition. The non-controlling interests are initially measured at the non-controlling shareholders’ proportion of the net fair value of the assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities recognised. Investments in associates An associate is an entity over which the Parent Company has significant influence and that is neither a subsidiary nor an interest in joint venture. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but not control or joint control over those policies. The results and assets and liabilities of associates are incorporated in these consolidated financial statements using the equity method of accounting. Interests in associates are carried in the consolidated balance sheet at cost as adjusted by post-acquisition changes in the Parent Company’s share of the net assets of the associate. Losses of an associate in excess of the Parent Company’s interest in that associate (which includes any long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the Company’s net investment in the associate) are not recognised. Where a group entity transacts with an associate of the Parent Company, unrealised profits and losses are eliminated to the extent of the Parent Company’s interest in the relevant associate. Financial instruments Initial recognition Financial assets: At the date of initial recognition, financial assets are recognised at cost plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial assets. Financial assets of the Company comprise cash, trade and other receivables, deposits and financial investments. Financial liabilities: At the date of initial recognition financial 74 Annual report PNJ - 2015 liabilities are recognised at cost plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the issue of the financial liabilities.

Subsequent measurement after initial recognition Currently, there are no requirements for the subsequent measurement of the financial instruments after initial recognition. Cash Cash comprise cash on hand and demand deposits. Financial investments Trading securities Trading securities are those the Company holds for trading purpose. Trading securities are recognised from the date the Company obtains the ownership of those securities and initially measured at the fair value of payments made at the transaction date plus directly attributable transaction costs. In subsequent periods, investments in trading securities are measured at cost less provision for impairment of such investments. Provision for impairment of investments in trading securities is made in accordance with prevailing accounting regulations. Held-to-maturity investments Held-to-maturity investments comprise investments that the Company has the positive intent or ability to hold to maturity, including term deposits (commercial bills), bonds, preference shares which the issuer shall redeem at a certain date in the future, loans held to maturity to earn periodic interest and other held-to-maturity investments. Held-to-maturity investments are recognised on a trade date basis and are initially measured at acquisition price plus directly attributable transaction costs. Post-acquisition interest income from held-to-maturity investments is recognised in the consolidated income statement on accrual basis. Pre-acquisition interest is deducted from the cost of such investments at the acquisition date. For the year ended 31 December 2015 Form B 09-DN/HN These notes are an integral part of and should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements Held-to-maturity investments are measured at cost less provision for doubtful debts. Provision for doubtful debts relating to held-to-maturity investments is made in accordance with prevailing accounting regulations. Other long-term investments Other long-term investments are investments in other entities which the Company owns less than 20% voting rights and does not have significant influence, with maturity over 1 year.

Provisions for impairment of investments Provisions for impairment of investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates are made in accordance with Circular No. 228/2009/TT-BTC dated 7 December 2009 issued by the Ministry of Finance on “Guiding the appropriation and use of provisions for devaluation of inventories, loss of financial investments, bad debts and warranty for products, goods and construction works at enterprises”, Circular No. 89/2013/TT-BTC dated 28 June 2013 by the Ministry of Finance amending and supplementing Circular No. 228/2009/TT-BTC and prevailing accounting regulations.

The costs of purchased tangible fixed assets comprise their purchase prices and any directly attributable costs of bringing the assets to their working condition and location for their intended use.

Accordingly, transactions arising in foreign currencies are translated at exchange rates ruling at the transaction date.

Exchange differences arising from the translation of these accounts are recognised in the consolidated income statement. Unrealised exchange gains as at the consolidated balance sheet date are not treated as part of distributable profit to shareholders.

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset realised. Deferred tax is charged or credited to profit or loss, except when it relates to items charged or credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority and the Company intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis. The determination of the tax currently payable is based on the current interpretation of tax regulations. However, these regulations are subject to periodic variation and their ultimate determination depends on the results of the tax authorities’ examinations. Other taxes are paid in accordance with the prevailing tax laws in Vietnam. Taxation Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the period. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in the consolidated income statement because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other periods (including loss carried forward, if any) and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. Deferred tax is recognised on significant differences between Financial statements 77 78 Annual report PNJ - 2015 Significant intra-group transactions during the year (Note 38).

Form B 09-DN/HN For the year ended 31 December 2015 These notes are an integral part of and should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements The Company has not assessed fair value of its financial assets and liabilities as at the consolidated balance sheet date since there are no comprehensive guidance under Circular No. 210/2009/TT-BTC issued by the Ministry of Finance on 6 November 2009 (“Circular 210”) and other relevant prevailing regulations to determine fair value of these financial assets and liabilities. While Circular 210 refers to the application of International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) on presentation and disclosures of financial instruments, it did not adopt the equivalent guidance for the recognition and measurement of financial instruments, including application of fair value, in accordance with IFRS. Financial risk management objectives The Company has set up risk management system to identify and assess the risks exposed by the Company and designed control policies and procedures to manage those risks at an acceptable level. United States Dollar (USD) Australia Dollar (AUD) Hong Kong Dollar (HKD) Euro (EUR) Singapore Dollar (SGD) Financial risks include market risk (including foreign currency risk and interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. Market risk The Company’s activities expose it primarily to the financial risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The Company does not hedge these risk exposures due to the lack of active market for the trading activities of financial instruments. Foreign currency risk management The Company undertakes certain transactions denominated in foreign currencies; consequently, exposures to exchange rate fluctuations arise. 31/12/2014 31/12/2015 31/12/2014 VND VND VND VND 11,531,962,091 10,281,528,188 27,715,094,254 124,890,783,407 17,660 543,430,896 1,469,232,815 543,153,309 - 2,825,400 - - 817,969,786 1,200,157,800 258,738,849 34,954,365,219 2,900,352 - - - The Company is mainly exposed to United States Dollar and Euro. The sensitivity rate used when analyzing foreign currency sensitivity is 5% which is assessed to have significant effect on monetary items denominated in foreign currency at the year end by the Board of Directors. For a 5% increase/decrease in the USD and EUR against Interest rate sensitivity The loan’s sensitivity to interest rate changes which may arise at an appropriate level is presented in the following table. Assuming all other variables were held constant, if interest rates applicable to floating interest bearing loans had been 200 basis points higher/lower, the Company’s profit before tax for the year ended 31 December 2015 would have decreased/increased by VND 19,352,969,178 (2014: VND 25,376,302,560). Credit risk Credit risk refers to the risk that counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Company. The Company has a credit policy in place and the exposure to credit risk is monitored on an on-going basis. The Company does not have any significant credit risk exposure to any counterparty because receivables consist of a large number of customers, spread across diverse industries. LIABILITIES 31/12/2015 Foreign currency sensitivity analysis 100 Annual report PNJ - 2015 These notes are an integral part of and should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements Risk management system is reviewed on a regular basis to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company’s operations. The carrying amounts of the Company’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities at the end of the year are as follows: ASSETS Form B 09-DN/HN VND, the profit before tax for the year ended 31 December 2015 would have decreased/increased by the amounts of VND 781,617,144 (2014: VND 7,418,017,982) respectively. Interest rate risk management The Company has significant interest rate risks arising from interest bearing loans which are arranged. The risk is managed by the Company by maintaining an appropriate level of borrowings and analysing market competition to enjoy favourable interest rates from appropriate lenders. Liquidity risk management The purpose of liquidity risk management is to ensure the availability of funds to meet present and future financial obligations. Liquidity is also managed by ensuring that the excess of maturing liabilities over maturing assets in any period is kept to manageable levels relative to the amount of funds that the Company believes can generate within that period. The Company policy is to regularly monitor current and expected liquidity requirements to ensure that the Company maintains sufficient reserves of cash, borrowings and adequate committed funding from its shareholders to meet its liquidity requirements in the short and longer term. The following table details the Company’s remaining contractual maturity for its non-derivative financial assets and financial liabilities with agreed repayment periods.
