CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT
On behalf of the Board of Directors of Ewein Berhad, I am pleased to present
herewith the Annual Report and Audited Financial Statements of the Company and
of the Group for the financial year ended 31 December 2015.
GROUP PERFORMANCE
For financial year ended 31 December 2015, the Group posted a revenue of RM87.7
million, a 96.6% surge from RM44.6 million reported last year. In turn, profit before
tax rose by 421% to RM18.6 million, from RM3.57 million reported in the preceding
financial year. The improved sales performance was significantly contributed by
property development activities.
The Company has mobilized the development of its maiden property development
project “City of Dreams” with piling and substructure works and the project is
expected to be completed in 2020. The Group is continuing its efforts to seek and
to establish synergistic partnerships through joint ventures and expanding its land
banks.
CORPORATE DEVELOPMENTS
The Company did not have any corporate exercise during the financial year.
PROSPECTS
The gross domestic product growth in Malaysia for 2015 was at 5%, a decrease from 6% in year 2014 which is
mainly affected by the slowdown in domestic demand from tighter fiscal conditions. Residential property prices and
sales volume will likely to be subdued following the various cooling measures implemented. With a greater pool of
affordable housing coming into the market in the next few years, 2016 will be a challenging year for the residential
property market. Despite the downturn, the Group had demonstrated a great return in year 2015. The Board is
committed to the creation of a stable platform for future development in an effort to bring greater value to the Group
and its shareholders.
DIVIDENDS
The Board of Directors is pleased to recommend a first and final single tier dividend of half sen per share in respect
of the financial year ended 31 December 2015, amounting to RM1,108,534.43 million subject to the approval of the
shareholders at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting.

STATEMENT ON CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
The Board is fully committed to developing and maintaining high standards of corporate governance by implementing
the prescriptions of the principles and best practices set out in the Malaysian Code of Corporate Governance 2012
(the “Code”). It recognizes that principles of good corporate governance and business integrity are fundamental to
the goals of enhancing shareholder value and protecting the interests of all stakeholders. The Board is pleased to
provide the following statement, which outlines the primary corporate governance practices consistently adopted by
the Group.
Principle 1 Establish clear roles and responsibilities
Composition of the Board/Board Balance
The Board currently consists of seven (7) members; comprising three (3) Non-Independent and Non-Executive Directors,
two (2) Executive Directors and two (2) Independent Non-Executive Directors. The Board consists of members from a
wide range of discipline and background, providing in-depth and diversity in experience to the Group’s operations. The
Board takes cognizance of the Chairman being not an Independent Director but of the view that there are sufficient
experiences and Independent non-Executive Directors on Board to provide assurance that there is adequate check and
balance. All Independent Non-Executive Directors are free from any business dealings and other relationships with the
Group and therefore play a crucial role in corporate accountability with their independent, unbiased views, advice and
judgment in the decision making process.
With Dato’ Seri Ewe Tiong Hor as the Group Non-Independent Non-Executive Chairman and Dato’ Ewe Swee Kheng
as the Group Managing Director, there is a clear division of responsibilities between these roles to ensure a balance
of power and authority. Furthermore, the complement of Non-Executive Directors provides an effective Board with a
mix of industry-specific knowledge, technical and commercial experience. This balance enables the Board to provide
a clear and effective leadership to the Company and to bring informed and independent judgment to various aspects
of the Company’s strategies and performance.
The Independent Non-Executive Directors further strengthen the Board in providing unbiased and independent views,
advice and judgement. They also contribute to the formulation of policies and decision-making though their expertise
and experience.
A brief profile of each Director is presented on page 5 to page 9 of this Annual Report.

Principle 3 Reinforce Independence
Assessment of Independent Directors
The Board recognizes the importance of independence and objectivity in the decision making process. The Board and
its Nominating Committee in their annual assessment concluded that each of the two Independent Non-Executive
Directors continue to demonstrate conduct and behavior that are essential indicators of independence. Each of
them continues to fulfil the definitions and criteria of independence as set out in Bursa Malaysia Main Market Listing
Requirements.
Tenure of Independent Directors
The Board is of the opinion that the composition is balanced and in compliance with the Bursa Malaysia Main Market
Listing Requirements. The Nominating Committee had also assessed the independency of Dato’ Khor Ah Hua @ Khor
Choo Fong (“Dato’ Khor”) who is going to serve more than 9 years as an independent director of the Company.
STATEMENT ON CORPORATE GOVERNANCE (CONT’D)
Principle 3 Reinforce Independence (Cont'd)
Tenure of Independent Directors (Cont'd)
The Nominating Committee upon its assessment carried out is satisfied that Dato’ Khor has satisfactorily demonstrated
that he is independent from the management and free from any business dealings with the Group that could be
perceived to interfere in his exercised of independent judgement. The Board took note of recommendation of the
Code but immediate compliance with the said recommendation posed a disadvantage to the Company in terms of
losing an experienced independent director who over the years had contributed to the effectiveness of the Board as
a whole. Nevertheless, Dato’ Khor will be seeking shareholders’ approval on his re-appointment as an independent
director at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting. In view thereof, the Board recommends and supports his reappointment as an independent non-executive director of the Company at the forthcoming 10th Annual General
Meeting of the Company.
Chairman and Managing Director to be held by different Individuals
The positions of the Chairman and the Managing Director are held by two different individuals in line with the Code’s
Recommendations. There is a clear division of responsibility between the Non-Executive Chairman and the Managing
Director to ensure that there is a balance of power and authority.
The Chairman is responsible for leading the Board and ensuring its effectiveness whilst the Managing Director is
responsible for running the Group’s business.
Chairman to be a Non-Executive Director
The Chairman of the Company, Dato’ Seri Ewe Tiong Hor is a Non-Executive Director of the Board but is not an
independent director. The Board is aware that it is not in compliance with the best practices of the Code which
recommends that the Chairman of a company shall be a non-executive independent director.
However, the Board is satisfied with the Chairman in view of his experience and knowledge. The presence of the
two existing Independent Directors is sufficient to provide the required checks and balances on the decision making
process of the Board. The significant contributions of the Independent Directors in the decision making process is
evidenced in their participation as members of the various committees of the Board.
Principle 4 Foster Commitment
The Board recognizes the need for the directors to spend sufficient time and efforts in carrying out their responsibilities,
thus each director is expected to commit sufficient time in attending meetings for the Board, Board Committees as
well as external trainings to enhance their professional skills.
Board Meeting
During the financial year ended 31 December 2015 the Board met on 4 occasions. Meeting agendas included review
of quarterly financial results and announcements, plan and direction of the Group.

Protocol for the Appointment of Directors
To ensure that Directors have sufficient time to fulfill their roles and responsibilities effectively, the criterion as agreed
by the Board for determining candidates for the pool of potential Directors is that they must not hold directorships of
more than five PLCs (as prescribed in Paragraph 15.06 of the Main Market Listing Requirements).
Under Recommendation 4.1 of the Code, the Board should stipulate the expectations of time commitment for
members who accept a new directorship. The Protocol requires the Directors to notify the Chairman before accepting
any new directorship. This information will be shared with the Board, together with a quarterly update by individual
Directors on their directorships and shareholdings in Bursa Malaysia, to confirm the Board members’ commitment in
devoting sufficient time to carry out their responsibilities.
Such information is also used to monitor the number of directorships held by the Directors of Bursa Malaysia,
particularly those on PLCs, and to notify the Companies Commission of Malaysia of any changes in other directorships
on public companies.

26 STATEMENT ON RISK MANAGEMENT AND
INTERNAL CONTROL
Introduction
This Statement on Risk Management and Internal Control is made pursuant to Bursa Securities Listing Requirements
and formulated in accordance with Statement on Internal Control: Guidance for Directors of Public Listed Companies.
The statement outlines the scope of internal control within the Group.
The Board recognises the importance of a sound system of internal controls and an effective risk management
framework to good corporate governance. The Board also acknowledges its responsibility for maintaining a sound
system of internal controls, and for reviewing its adequacy and integrity. The Board of Directors is committed to
maintaining a system of internal controls which covers financial, operational and compliance controls as well as risk
management to achieve the following objectives:
• Safeguard assets of the Group and shareholders’ interest;
• Identify and manage risks affecting the Group;
• Ensure compliance with regulatory requirements; and
• Ensure operational results are closely monitored.
However, the Board recognises that reviewing the Group’s system of internal controls is a concerted and on-going
process, designed to manage rather than eliminate the risk of failure to comply with the Group’s policies and to
achieve business objectives. In pursuing these objectives, internal control can only provide reasonable and not absolute
assurance against material misstatements or losses.
In striving for continuous improvement, the Board will put in place appropriate action plans, when necessary, to
further enhance the Group’s system of internal controls.
Internal Control
The Group’s system of internal controls comprises the following key elements:
• Organisational structure and accountability levels
Key responsibilities and lines of accountability within the Group are defined, with clear reporting lines up to
the Senior Management of the Group and to the Board of Directors of the Company. The Group’s delegation
of authority sets out the decisions that need to be taken and the appropriate authority levels of Management
including matters that require Board approval.
• Control procedures
Operating Procedures Manual that sets out certain policies and procedures are maintained by certain companies
in the Group which were awarded the ISO 9001:2000 accreditation to ensure that accountability and standard
control procedures are in place.
STATEMENT ON RISK MANAGEMENT AND
INTERNAL CONTROL (CONT’D)
Internal Audit
The Group has engaged an external independent service provider firm (“the firm”) to carry out its internal audit
functions. During the financial year ended 31 December 2015, the firm had conducted an assessment of the risks
applicable to the operating subsidiaries of the Group. Risks are assessed in terms of their likelihood and impact to
the organisation. In addition, the firm had conducted internal audits on four of its operating subsidiaries. Arising
from the audit performed, the firm highlighted to the Management certain areas for improvement. The firm had also
presented their reports to the Audit Committee for deliberation. In turn, the Audit Committee had also reported to
the Board of Directors the internal audit findings, the recommendations for improvements and the response from
Management thereto.
The Board is of the view that there were no significant breakdowns or weaknesses in the system of internal controls
of the Group that resulted in material losses incurred by the Group for the financial year ended 31 December 2015
and the internal control system in place is effective up to the date of approval of this statement. The Group will
continue to take the necessary measures to ensure that the system of internal controls is in place and functioning
effectively in all material aspects.
Risk Management Framework
For long-term viability of the Group, it is crucial to achieve a critical balance between risks incurred and potential
returns. Taking cognizance of this, the Board has been mandated to drive the risk management process whilst
focusing on the critical business agenda of the Group. The Board, through the internal audits conducted, strives to
develop and implement internal controls at appropriate levels of the organisation.
The Group through the management meetings between the Deputy Managing Director and head of departments,
identifies and manages any operational risks faced by the Group.
The Board has received assurance from the Managing Director and Group Finance Manager that the Group’s risk
management and internal control system is operating adequately and effectively, in all material aspects based on the
risk management and internal control system adopted.
This Statement does not cover the associate of the Company, Kota Cornwallis Sdn. Bhd.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT
35
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2015 (CONT’D)
Directors’ interests in shares (Cont'd)
By virtue of his interests in the shares of the Company, Dato’ Ewe Swee Kheng is also deemed interested in the shares
of the subsidiaries during the financial year to the extent that the Company has an interest.
None of the other Directors holding office at 31 December 2015 had any interest in the ordinary shares and warrants
of the Company and of its related corporations during the financial year.
Directors’ benefits
Since the end of the previous financial year, no Director of the Company has received nor become entitled to receive
any benefit (other than a benefit included in the aggregate amount of emoluments received or due and receivable
by Directors as shown in the financial statements or the fixed salary of a full time employee of certain related
corporations) by reason of a contract made by the Company or a related corporation with the Director or with a firm
of which the Director is a member, or with a company in which the Director has a substantial financial interest other
than as disclosed in Note 26 to the financial statements.
There were no arrangements during and at the end of the financial year which had the object of enabling Directors of
the Company to acquire benefits by means of the acquisition of shares in or debentures of the Company or any other
body corporate except where the benefit is acquired through the Company’s warrants as disclosed in the financial
statements.
Issue of shares and debentures
There were no changes in the authorised, issued and paid-up capital of the Company other than the issuance of
655,194 new ordinary shares of RM0.50 each arising from the exercise of warrants at an exercise price of RM0.61
per ordinary share. No debentures were issued during the financial year.
Warrants
As at the end of the financial year, the Company has the following outstanding warrants :

36 DIRECTORS’ REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2015 (CONT’D)
Warrants (Cont'd)
Warrants 2012/2017 were issued on 14 June 2012 pursuant to the Bonus Issue of 52,731,300 free warrants in the
Company on the basis of one free warrant for every two existing ordinary shares of RM0.50 each in the Company.
The number of warrants outstanding was adjusted during the financial year ended 31 December 2014 pursuant to
the Rights Issue and Bonus Issue of ordinary shares undertaken by the Company. The warrants entitle the holders
to subscribe for new ordinary shares in the Company on the basis of one new ordinary share of RM0.50 each for
every warrant held at an exercise price of RM0.61 per ordinary share within 5 years from the date of the issue of
the warrants. The exercise price of the warrants is subject to adjustment from time to time in accordance with the
conditions stipulated in the Deed Poll created on 22 May 2012.
Options granted over unissued shares
No options were granted to any person to take up unissued shares of the Company during the financial year apart
from the issue of warrants as disclosed in the financial statements.
Other statutory information
Before the financial statements of the Group and of the Company were made out, the Directors took reasonable
steps to ascertain that :
i)
all known bad debts have been written off and adequate provision made for doubtful debts, and
ii)
any current assets which were unlikely to be realised in the ordinary course of business have been written down
to an amount which they might be expected so to realise.
At the date of this report, the Directors are not aware of any circumstances :
i)
that would render the amount written off for bad debts or the amount of the provision for doubtful debts in
the Group and in the Company inadequate to any substantial extent, or
ii)
that would render the value attributed to the current assets in the financial statements of the Group and of the
Company misleading, or
iii) which have arisen which render adherence to the existing method of valuation of assets or liabilities of the
Group and of the Company misleading or inappropriate, or
iv)
not otherwise dealt with in this report or the financial statements that would render any amount stated in the
financial statements of the Group and of the Company misleading.
DIRECTORS’ REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2015 (CONT’D)
Other statutory information (Cont'd)
At the date of this report, there does not exist :
i)
any charge on the assets of the Group or of the Company that has arisen since the end of the financial year and
which secures the liabilities of any other person, or
ii)
any contingent liability in respect of the Group or of the Company that has arisen since the end of the financial
year.
No contingent liability or other liability of any company in the Group has become enforceable, or is likely to become
enforceable within the period of twelve months after the end of the financial year which, in the opinion of the
Directors, will or may substantially affect the ability of the Group and of the Company to meet their obligations as
and when they fall due.
In the opinion of the Directors, other than the unrealised loss on foreign exchange as disclosed in Note 20 to the
financial statements, the financial performance of the Group and of the Company for the financial year ended 31
December 2015 have not been substantially affected by any item, transaction or event of a material and unusual
nature nor has any such item, transaction or event occurred in the interval between the end of that financial year and
the date of this report.
Significant events
The details of such events are disclosed in Note 34 to the financial statements.
Subsequent events
The details of such events are disclosed in Note 35 to the financial statements.
Auditors
The auditors, Messrs KPMG, have indicated their willingness to accept re-appointment.
Signed on behalf of the Board of Directors in accordance with a resolution of the Directors :

MFRS 9, Financial Instruments
MFRS 9 replaces the guidance in MFRS 139, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement on the

Arrangement contains a Lease, IC Interpretation 115, Operating Leases – Incentives and IC Interpretation
127, Evaluating the Substance of Transactions Involving the Legal Form of a Lease.

Significant accounting policies (Cont'd)
(a) Basis of consolidation
(i)Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are entities, including structured entities, controlled by the Company. The financial
statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that
control commences until the date that control ceases.
The Group controls an entity when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement
with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. Potential
voting rights are considered when assessing control only when such rights are substantive. The
Group also considers it has de facto power over an investee when, despite not having the majority
of voting rights, it has the current ability to direct the activities of the investee that significantly
affect the investee’s return.
Investments in subsidiaries are measured in the Company’s statement of financial position at cost
less any impairment losses, unless the investment is classified as held for sale or distribution. The cost
of investments includes transaction costs.
(ii) Business combinations
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method from the acquisition date,
which is the date on which control is transferred to the Group.
For new acquisitions, the Group measures the cost of goodwill at the acquisition date as :
• the fair value of the consideration transferred; plus
• the recognised amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree; plus
• if the business combination is achieved in stages, the fair value of the existing equity interest in
the acquiree; less
• the net recognised amount (generally fair value) of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities
assumed.
When the excess is negative, a bargain purchase gain is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
For each business combination, the Group elects whether it measures the non-controlling interests
in the acquiree either at fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net
assets at the acquisition date.
Transaction costs, other than those associated with the issue of debt or equity securities, that the
Group incurs in connection with a business combination are expensed as incurred.

(a) Basis of consolidation (Cont'd)
(iii)
Acquisitions of non-controlling interests
The Group accounts for all changes in its ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a
loss of control as equity transactions between the Group and its non-controlling interest holders.
Any difference between the Group’s share of net assets before and after the change, and any
consideration received or paid, is adjusted to or against Group reserves.
(iv)
Loss of control
Upon the loss of control of a subsidiary, the Group derecognises the assets and liabilities of the
former subsidiary, any non-controlling interests and the other components of equity related to
the former subsidiary from the consolidated statement of financial position. Any surplus or deficit
arising on the loss of control is recognised in profit or loss. If the Group retains any interest in
the former subsidiary, then such interest is measured at fair value at the date that control is lost.
Subsequently, it is accounted for as an equity accounted investee or as an available-for-sale financial
asset depending on the level of influence retained.
(v)Associates
Associates are entities, including unincorporated entities, in which the Group has significant
influence, but not control, over the financial and operating policies.
Investments in associates are accounted for in the consolidated financial statements using the
equity method less any impairment losses, unless it is classified as held for sale or distribution. The
cost of the investment includes transaction costs. The consolidated financial statements include
the Group’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associates, after
adjustments if any, to align the accounting policies with those of the Group, from the date that
significant influence commences until the date that significant influence ceases.
When the Group’s share of losses exceeds its interest in an associate, the carrying amount of that
interest including any long-term investments is reduced to zero, and the recognition of further losses
is discontinued except to the extent that the Group has an obligation or has made payments on
behalf of the associate.
When the Group ceases to have significant influence over an associate, any retained interest in
the former associate at the date when significant influence is lost is measured at fair value and
this amount is regarded as the initial carrying amount of a financial asset. The difference between
the fair value of any retained interest plus proceeds from the interest disposed of and the carrying
amount of the investment at the date when equity method is discontinued is recognised in the profit
or loss.

(v)
Associates (Cont'd)
When the Group’s interest in an associate decreases but does not result in a loss of significant
influence, any retained interest is not remeasured. Any gain or loss arising from the decrease in
interest is recognised in profit or loss. Any gains or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive
income are also reclassified proportionately to profit or loss if that gain or loss would be required to
be reclassified to profit or loss on the disposal of the related assets or liabilities.
Investments in associates are measured in the Company’s statement of financial position at cost less
any impairment losses, unless the investment is classified as held for sale or distribution. The cost of
investment includes transaction costs.
(vi) Non-controlling interests
Non-controlling interests at the end of the reporting period, being the equity in a subsidiary
not attributable directly or indirectly to the equity holders of the Company, are presented in the
consolidated statement of financial position and statement of changes in equity within equity,
separately from equity attributable to the owners of the Company. Non-controlling interests in
the results of the Group is presented in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other
comprehensive income as an allocation of the profit or loss and the comprehensive income for the
year between non-controlling interests and owners of the Company.
Losses applicable to the non-controlling interests in a subsidiary are allocated to the non-controlling
interests even if doing so causes the non-controlling interests to have a deficit balance.
(vii) Transactions eliminated on consolidation
Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealised income and expenses arising from intragroup transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements.
Unrealised gains arising from transactions with equity-accounted associates are eliminated against
the investment to the extent of the Group’s interest in the investees. Unrealised losses are eliminated
in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.

(b) Foreign currency transactions
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of Group entities at
exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the end of the reporting period are
retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date.
Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are not retranslated at the end of the
reporting date, except for those that are measured at fair value are retranslated to the functional currency
at the exchange rate at the date that the fair value was determined.
Foreign currency differences arising on retranslation are recognised in profit or loss, except for differences
arising on the retranslation of available-for-sale equity instruments or a financial instrument designated as
a hedge of currency risk, which are recognised in other comprehensive income.
In the consolidated financial statements, when settlement of a monetary item receivable from or payable
to a foreign operation is neither planned nor likely to occur in the foreseeable future, foreign exchange
gains and losses arising from such a monetary item are considered to form part of a net investment in a
foreign operation and are recognised in other comprehensive income, and are presented in the foreign
currency translation reserve in equity.
(c) Financial instruments
(i)
Initial recognition and measurement
A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised in the statement of financial position when,
and only when, the Group or the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the
instrument.
A financial instrument is recognised initially, at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial instrument
not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition
or issue of the financial instrument.
An embedded derivative is recognised separately from the host contract and accounted for as a
derivative if, and only if, it is not closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the

Financial instrument categories and subsequent measurement
The Group and the Company categorise financial instruments as follows:
Financial assets
(a)
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables category comprises debt instruments that are not quoted in an active
market.
Financial assets categorised as loans and receivables are subsequently measured at amortised
cost using the effective interest method.
(b)
Available-for-sale financial assets
Available-for-sale category comprises investment in equity and debt securities instruments
that are not held for trading.
Investments in equity instruments that do not have a quoted market price in an active market
and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured are measured at cost. Other financial
assets categorised as available-for-sale are subsequently measured at their fair values with the
gain or loss recognised in other comprehensive income, except for impairment losses, foreign
exchange gains and losses arising from monetary items and gains and losses of hedged
items attributable to hedge risks of fair value hedges which are recognised in profit or loss.
On derecognition, the cumulative gain or loss recognised in other comprehensive income is
reclassified from equity into profit or loss. Interest calculated for a debt instrument using the
effective interest method is recognised in profit or loss.
All financial assets are subject to review for impairment (see Note 2(f)(i)).
Financial liabilities
All financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost.

(iii)
Financial guarantee contracts
A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer to make specified payments to
reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due
in accordance with the original or modified terms of a debt instrument.
Fair value arising from financial guarantee contracts are classified as deferred income and is
amortised to profit or loss using a straight-line method over the contractual period or, when there
is no specified contractual period, recognised in profit or loss upon discharge of the guarantee.
When settlement of a financial guarantee contract becomes probable, an estimate of the obligation
is made. If the carrying value of the financial guarantee contract is lower than the obligation, the
carrying value is adjusted to the obligation amount and accounted for as a provision.
(iv)
Regular way purchase or sale of financial assets
A regular way purchase or sale is a purchase or sale of a financial asset under a contract whose
terms require delivery of the asset within the time frame established generally by regulation or
convention in the marketplace concerned.
A regular way purchase or sale of financial assets is recognised and derecognised, as applicable,
using trade date accounting. Trade date accounting refers to:
(a) the recognition of an asset to be received and the liability to pay for it on the trade date, and
(b)derecognition of an asset that is sold, recognition of any gain or loss on disposal and the
recognition of a receivable from the buyer for payment on the trade date.
(v)Derecognition
A financial asset or part of it is derecognised when, and only when the contractual rights to the
cash flows from the financial asset expire or control of the asset is not retained or substantially all
of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred to another party. On
derecognition of a financial asset, the difference between the carrying amount and the sum of the
consideration received (including any new asset obtained less any new liability assumed) and any
cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in equity is recognised in the profit or loss.

Derecognition (Cont'd)
A financial liability or a part of it is derecognised when, and only when, the obligation specified
in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires. On derecognition of a financial liability, the
difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability extinguished or transferred to
another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities
assumed, is recognised in profit or loss.
(d) Property, plant and equipment
(i)
Recognition and measurement
Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation and
any accumulated impairment losses.
Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset and any other
costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to working condition for its intended use, and the
costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located. The
cost of self-constructed assets also includes the cost of materials and direct labour.
Purchased software that is integral to the functionality of the related equipment is capitalised as
part of that equipment.
When significant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they
are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.
The gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined by comparing
the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment and is
recognised net within “other income” and “other expenses” respectively in profit or loss.
(ii)
Subsequent costs
The cost of replacing a component of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in
the carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within
the component will flow to the Group or the Company, and its cost can be measured reliably. The
carrying amount of the replaced component is derecognised to profit or loss. The costs of the dayto-day servicing of property, plant and equipment are recognised in profit or loss as incurred.

(iii)Depreciation
Depreciation is based on the cost of an asset less its residual value. Significant components of
individual assets are assessed, and if a component has a useful life that is different from the
remainder of that asset, then that component is depreciated separately.
Depreciation is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of
each component of an item of property, plant and equipment from the date that they are available
for use. Leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives unless
it is reasonably certain that the Group will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term. Property,
plant and equipment under construction are not depreciated until the assets are ready for their
intended use.
The principal annual rates used for the current and comparative periods are as follows :
Leasehold land
Factory and other buildings
Plant, machinery, tools and factory equipment
Furniture, fittings and office equipment
Motor vehicles
%

1 - 10

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at the end of the reporting
period, and adjusted as appropriate.
(e) Leased assets
(i)
Finance lease
Leases in terms of which the Group or the Company assumes substantially all the risks and rewards
of ownership are classified as finance leases. Upon initial recognition, the leased asset is measured at
an amount equal to the lower of its fair value and the present value of the minimum lease payments.
Subsequent to initial recognition, the asset is accounted for in accordance with the accounting
policy applicable to that asset.
Minimum lease payments made under finance leases are apportioned between the finance expense
and the reduction of the outstanding liability. The finance expense is allocated to each period during
the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the
liability. Contingent lease payments are accounted for by revising the minimum lease payments over
the remaining term of the lease when the lease adjustment is confirmed.

(i)
Finance lease (Cont'd)
Leasehold land which in substance is a finance lease is classified as property, plant and equipment,
or as investment property if held to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or for both.
(ii) Operating lease
Leases, where the Group or the Company does not assume substantially all the risks and rewards of
ownership are classified as operating leases and, except for property interest held under operating
lease, the leased assets are not recognised on the statement of financial position. Property interest
held under an operating lease, which is held to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or
both, is classified as investment property and measured using fair value model.
Payments made under operating leases are recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over
the term of the lease. Lease incentives received are recognised in profit or loss as an integral part of
the total lease expense, over the term of the lease. Contingent rentals are charged to profit or loss
in the reporting period in which they are incurred.
(f)Impairment
(i)
Financial assets
All financial assets, (except for investments in subsidiaries and investment in an associate) are
assessed at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence of impairment as a result
of one or more events having an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the asset. Losses
expected as a result of future events, no matter how likely, are not recognised. For an investment in
an equity instrument, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value below its cost is an objective
evidence of impairment. If any such objective evidence exists, then the impairment loss of financial
asset is estimated.
An impairment loss in respect of loans and receivables is recognised in profit or loss and is measured
as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future
cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset
is reduced through the use of an allowance account.
An impairment loss in respect of available-for-sale financial assets is recognised in profit or loss and
is measured as the difference between the asset’s acquisition cost (net of any principal repayment
and amortisation) and the asset’s current fair value, less any impairment loss previously recognised.
Where a decline in the fair value of an available-for-sale financial asset has been recognised in
other comprehensive income, the cumulative loss in other comprehensive income is reclassified from
equity to profit or loss.

Significant accounting policies (Cont'd)
(f)Impairment (Cont'd)
(i)
Financial assets (Cont'd)
An impairment loss in respect of unquoted equity instrument that is carried at cost is recognised in
profit or loss and is measured as the difference between the financial asset’s carrying amount and
the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the current market rate of return for
a similar financial asset.
Impairment losses recognised in profit or loss for an investment in an equity instrument classified as
available for sale is not reversed through profit or loss.
If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of a debt instrument increases and the increase can be
objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised in profit or loss,
the impairment loss is reversed, to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed
what the carrying amount would have been had the impairment not been recognised at the date
the impairment is reversed. The amount of the reversal is recognised in profit or loss.
(ii) Other assets
The carrying amounts of other assets (except for inventories, deferred tax assets and investment
properties measured at fair value) are reviewed at the end of each reporting period to determine
whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s
recoverable amount is estimated.
For the purpose of impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets
that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of
other assets or cash-generating units.
The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is the greater of its value in use and its fair
value less costs of disposal. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted
to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the
time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or cash-generating unit.
An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or its related cash-generating
unit exceeds its estimated recoverable amount.
Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognised in respect of cashgenerating units are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the
cash-generating unit (group of cash-generating units) and then to reduce the carrying amount of
the other assets in the cash-generating unit (groups of cash-generating units) on a pro rata basis.

(f)Impairment (Cont'd)
(ii) Other assets (Cont'd)
An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. In respect of other assets, impairment
losses recognised in prior periods are assessed at the end of each reporting period for any indications
that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a
change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount since the last impairment loss
was recognised. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount
does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or
amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised. Reversals of impairment losses are credited
to profit or loss in the financial year in which the reversals are recognised.
(g)Inventories
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
The cost of inventories is calculated using the first-in, first-out method, and includes expenditure incurred
in acquiring the inventories, production or conversion costs and other costs incurred in bringing them to
their existing location and condition. In the case of work-in-progress and finished goods, cost includes an
appropriate share of production overheads based on normal operating capacity.
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs
of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
(h) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand, balances and deposits with banks (including the
accounts maintained pursuant to the Housing Developers (Housing Development Account)(Amendment)
Regulations 2002) and highly liquid investments which have an insignificant risk of changes in fair value
with original maturities of three months or less, and are used by the Group and the Company in the
management of their short term commitments. For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and
cash equivalents are presented net of bank overdrafts and pledged deposits.
(i)Provision
A provision is recognised if, as a result a past event, the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation
that can be estimated reliably, and it is probably that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to
settle the obligation. Provision are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows as per-tax rate
that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability.
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT'D)
2.
Significant accounting policies (Cont'd)
(j) Contingent liabilities
Where it is not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required, or the amount cannot be
estimated reliably, the obligation is not recognised in the statements of financial position and is disclosed as
a contingent liability, unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote. Possible obligations,
whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more future events,
are also disclosed as contingent liabilities unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote.
(k) Revenue and other income
(a)
Revenue from contracts with customers
Revenue which represents income arising in the course of the Group’s ordinary activities is recognised
by reference to each distinct performance obligation promised in the contract with the customer
when or as the Group transfers the control of the goods and services promised in the contract and
the customer obtains control of the goods or services.
Nature of goods and services
The following is a description of principal activities separated by reportable segments from which
the Group generates its revenue. For more detailed information about reportable segments, see
Note 27.
(i)
Manufacturing segment
The manufacturing segment of the Group is involved in the manufacturing of precision sheet
metal fabricated parts, precision injection moulding products and fabrication of moulds,
tools and dies. The products from this segment are sold separately but customised to the
specifications provided by the customers. Revenue is recognised over time as the Group’s
performance:
• creates and enhances an asset that the customer controls as the Group performs; or
• does not create an asset with an alternative use to the Group and the Group has
enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.
Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration to which the Group expects to be
entitled net of discounts and rebates and excluding amounts collected on behalf of third
parties.
Majority of the contracts with customers include a standard warranty clause to provide
warranty of one year. No provision for warranty was made by the Group as the probability
of a defect arising from products sold was not material based on historical experience/data.

(a)
Revenue from contracts with customers
(ii) Property development segment
Revenue is recognised over the period of the contract by reference to the progress towards
complete satisfaction of that performance obligation. The progress towards complete
satisfaction of the performance obligation is measure based on one of the following methods
that best depict the Group’s performance in satisfying the performance obligation:
• direct measurement of the value transferred by the Group to the customer (e.g. surveys
or appraisals of performance completed to date); or
• the Group’s efforts or inputs to the satisfaction of the performance obligation (e.g. by
reference to the property development costs incurred up to the end of the financial
reporting period as a percentage of total estimated costs for complete satisfaction of the
contract).
If the contract with customer contains more than one distinct performance obligation, the
amount of consideration is allocated to each distinct performance obligation based on the
relative stand-alone selling prices of the goods or services promised in the contract.
(iii) Property management and letting segment
The property management and letting segment is involved in managing and letting of office
space, managing of a heritage/cultural site and the car parks adjacent to the said properties.
This segment derives its revenue in the form of rental from letting of office space and use
of properties and sale of tickets for right of entry to the heritage/cultural site and car parks. (b)
Rental income
Rental income from investment property is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over
the term of the lease. Lease incentives granted are recognised as an integral part of the total rental
income, over the term of the lease. Rental income from sub-leased property is recognised as other
income.
(c)
Dividend income
Dividend income is recognised in profit or loss on the date that the Group’s or the Company’s right
to receive payment is established, which in the case of quoted securities is the ex-dividend date.
(d)
Interest income
Interest income is recognised as it accrues using the effective interest method in profit or loss.

(k) Revenue and other income (Cont'd)
The estimated revenue relating to unfulfilled performance obligation at the end of the financial reporting
period amounted to RM3,392,000 and RM201,952,000 for the manufacturing and property development
segment respectively of the Group. The Group expects to recognise these revenue during the first quarter
of 2016 for its manufacturing segment and progressively over the normal operating cycle of the Group’s
development phase of approximately 4 years for its property development segment.
(l) Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method. Borrowing costs
directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets
that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are capitalised
as part of the cost of those assets.
The capitalisation of borrowing costs as part of the cost of a qualifying asset commences when expenditure
for the asset is being incurred, borrowing costs are being incurred and activities that are necessary to
prepare the asset for its intended use or sale are in progress. Capitalisation of borrowing costs is suspended
or ceases when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the qualifying asset for its intended use
or sale are interrupted or completed.
Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure
on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.
(m) Income tax
Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax and deferred tax are recognised in
profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to a business combination or items recognised directly in
equity or other comprehensive income.
Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year, using
tax rates enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period, and any adjustment to tax
payable in respect of previous financial years.
Deferred tax is recognised using the liability method, providing for temporary differences between the
carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the statement of financial position and their tax bases. Deferred
tax is not recognised for the following temporary differences : the initial recognition of goodwill, the initial
recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither
accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be
applied to the temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or
substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

(CONT'D)
Significant accounting policies (Cont'd)
(m) Income tax (Cont'd)
Where investment properties are carried at their fair value in accordance with the accounting policy set out
in note 2(r), the amount of deferred tax recognised is measured using the tax rates that would apply on
sale of those assets at their carrying value at the reporting date unless the property is depreciable and is
held with the objective to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the property over
time, rather than through sale. In all other cases, the amount of deferred tax recognised is measured based
on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities,
using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities
are not discounted.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax
liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable
entity, or on different tax entity, but they intend to settle current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis or
their tax assets and liabilities will be realised simultaneously.
A deferred tax asset is recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be
available against which the temporary difference can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at the
end of each reporting period and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related
tax benefit will be realised.
(n) Employee benefits
(i)
Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefit obligations in respect of salaries, annual bonuses, paid annual leave
and sick leave are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the related service is
provided.
A liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid under short-term cash bonus or profitsharing plans if the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a
result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.
(ii)
State plans
The Group’s contributions to statutory pension funds are charged to profit or loss in the financial
year to which they relate. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extend that a cash
refund or a reduction in future payments is available.
(o) Earnings per ordinary share
The Group presents basic and diluted earnings per share data for its ordinary shares (“EPS”).
Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by
the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for own shares
held.
Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and the
weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding, adjusted for own shares held, for the effects
of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, which comprise convertible notes and share options granted to
employees.

(p) Operating segments
An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it
may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with
any of the Group’s other components. Operating segment results are reviewed regularly by the chief
operating decision maker, which in this case is the Managing Director of the Group, to make decisions
about resources to be allocated to the segment and to assess its performance, and for which discrete
financial information is available.
(q) Equity instruments
Instruments classified as equity are measured at cost on initial recognition and are not remeasured
subsequently.
(i)
Issue expenses
Costs directly attributable to the issue of instruments classified as equity are recognised as a deduction
from equity.
(ii)
Ordinary shares
Ordinary shares are classified as equity.
(iii)
Warrants reserve
The fair value relating to the issuance of warrants is credited to warrants reserve which is nondistributable. When the warrants are exercised or expire, the warrants reserve remains in equity,
although it may be transferred to another reserve account within equity.
(r) Investment properties
(i)
Investment properties carried at fair value
Investment properties are properties which are owned or held under a leasehold interest to earn rental
income or for capital appreciation or for both, but not for sale in the ordinary course of business, use
in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes.
Investment properties are measured initially at cost and subsequently at fair value with any change
therein recognised in profit or loss for the period in which they arise. Where the fair value of the
investment property under construction is not reliably determinable, the investment property under
construction is measured at cost until either its fair value becomes reliably determinable or construction
is complete, whichever is earlier.
Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the investment property. The
cost of self-constructed investment property includes the cost of materials and direct labour, any other
costs directly attributable to bringing the investment property to a working condition for their intended
use and capitalised borrowing costs.

(r) Investment properties (Cont'd)
(i)
Investment properties carried at fair value (cont'd)
An investment property is derecognised on its disposal, or when it is permanently withdrawn from
use and no future economic benefits are expected from its disposal. The difference between the net
disposal proceeds and the carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss in the period in which the
item is derecognised.
(ii)
Reclassification to/from investment property
When an item of property, plant and equipment is transferred to investment property following a
change in its use, any difference arising at the date of transfer between the carrying amount of the
item immediately prior to transfer and its fair value is recognised directly in equity as a revaluation
of property, plant and equipment. However, if a fair value gain reverses a previous impairment
loss, the gain is recognised in profit or loss. Upon disposal of an investment property, any surplus
previously recorded in equity is transferred to retained earnings; the transfer is not made through
profit or loss.
When the use of a property changes such that it is reclassified as property, plant and equipment or
inventories, its fair value at the date of reclassification becomes its cost for subsequent accounting.
(s) Property development costs
Property development costs comprise costs associated with the acquisition of land and all costs that
are directly attributable to development activities or that can be allocated on a reasonable basis to such
activities, including interest expense incurred during the period of active development.
Property development costs not recognised as an expense is recognised as an asset and is stated at the
lower of cost and net realisable value.
The excess of revenue recognised in profit or loss over billings to purchasers is shown as accrued billings
under trade and other receivables, and the excess of billings to purchasers over revenue recognised in profit
or loss is shown as progress billings under trade and other payables.
(t) Fair value measurement
Fair value of an asset or a liability, except for share-based payment and lease transactions, is determined
as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date. The measurement assumes that the transaction to
sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either in the principal market or in the absence of a principal
market, in the most advantageous market.
For non-financial asset, the fair value measurement takes into account a market participant’s ability to
generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market
participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

(t) Fair value measurement (Cont'd)
When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group uses observable market data as far as
possible. Fair value are categorised into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the input used in
the valuation technique as follows :
Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Group can
access at the measurement date.
Level 2 : inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or
liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 : unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
The Group recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy as of the date of the event or
change in circumstances that caused the transfers.

14.1 Share premium
Share premium comprises the premium paid on subscription of shares in the Company over and above
the par value of the shares.
14.2 Reverse acquisition reserve
This relates to the acquisition of MBM Industries Sdn. Bhd. (“MBMI”), where upon the completion of
the said acquisition, the Company became the legal parent company of MBMI. However, due to the
relative value of MBMI, the former equity holders of MBMI became the majority equity holders of the
Company. Furthermore, the Company’s continuing operations and management are those of MBMI.
Accordingly, the substance of the business combination is that MBMI acquired the Company through a
reverse acquisition.
In accordance with MFRS 3, the amount recognised as issued equity instruments in the consolidated
financial statements is determined by adding the cost of the business combination to the issued equity
of MBMI (i.e. the legal subsidiary) immediately before the business combination. However, the equity
structure appearing in the consolidated financial statements (i.e. the number and type of equity instruments
issued) shall reflect the issued equity structure of the Company, including the equity instruments issued
by the Company to effect the combination.

27. Operating segments - Group
The Group has three reportable segments as described below, which are the Group’s strategic business units.
The strategic business units offer different products and services, and are managed separately because they
require different technology and marketing strategies. For each of the strategic business units, the Chief
Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) (i.e. the Group’s Managing Director) reviews internal management reports
on a monthly basis.
Performance is measured based on segment profit before tax, interest, depreciation and amortisation, as
included in the internal management reports that are reviewed by the CODM. Segment profit is used to measure
performance as management believes that such information is the most relevant in evaluating the results of
certain segments relative to other entities that operate within these industries.

30.3 Financial risk management
The Group has exposure to the following risks from its use of financial instruments :
• Credit risk
• Liquidity risk
• Market risk
30.4 Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of a financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument
fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Group’s exposure to credit risk arises principally from its
receivables from customers. The Company’s exposure to credit risk arises principally from loans and
advances to subsidiaries and financial guarantee given to banks for credit facilities granted to subsidiaries.

Receivables
Risk management objectives, policies and processes for managing the risk
Management has a credit policy in place and the exposure to credit risk is monitored on an ongoing
basis. Credit evaluations are performed on customers requiring credit over a certain amount.
Exposure to credit risk, credit quality and collateral
At the end of the reporting period, there was no significant concentration of credit risk other than
the trade receivables attributable to two customers from the Group’s manufacturing segment which
collectively accounted for approximately 14% (2014 : 34%) of the Group’s total gross trade receivables.
The maximum exposure to credit risk for the Group is represented by the carrying amounts in the
statements of financial position.
Management has taken reasonable steps to ensure that receivables that are neither past due nor
impaired are measured at their realisable values. A significant portion of the receivables from the Group’s
manufacturing segment are regular customers that have been transacting with the Group. The Group
uses ageing analysis to monitor the credit quality of the receivables. Any receivables having significant
balances past due more than 120 days, which are deemed to have higher credit risk, are monitored
individually.
The Group does not have any significant credit risk from its property development segment as the
properties are predominantly sold to a large number of purchasers with end financing facilities from
banks and financial institutions. Additionally, the credit risk is also mitigated as ownership and rights to
the properties revert to the Group in the event of default and the properties do not suffer from physical
or technological obsolescence.
A segment of the Group’s receivables arose from the renting out of an investment property. The credit
risk from rental revenue is minimal due to the fact that upon execution of the tenancy agreement, the
tenants are required to place security deposits equivalent to three (3) months’ rental.

Risk management objectives, policies and processes for managing the risk
The Company provides unsecured financial guarantees to banks in respect of banking facilities granted

repayments made by the subsidiaries.
Exposure to credit risk, credit quality and collateral
The maximum exposure to credit risk amounted to RM142,348,750 (2014 : RM45,679,873) representing
the outstanding banking facilities of the subsidiaries as at the end of the reporting period.
As at the end of the reporting period, there was no indication that any subsidiary would default on
repayment.
The financial guarantees have not been recognised since the fair value on initial recognition was not

carrying amounts in the statement of financial position.
Impairment losses
As at the end of the reporting period, there was no indication that the advances to the subsidiaries
are not recoverable. The Company does not specifically monitor the ageing of the advances to the

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due.
The Group’s exposure to liquidity risk arises principally from its various payables, loans and borrowings.
The Group maintains a level of cash and cash equivalents and bank facilities deemed adequate by the
management to ensure, as far as possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when
they fall due.
It is not expected that the cash flows included in the maturity analysis could occur significantly earlier, or

Market risk
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates and interest rates
will affect the Group’s financial position or cash flows.
30.6.1 Interest rate risk
The Group’s variable rate borrowings are exposed to a risk of change in cash flows due to changes in
interest rates. The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk is also extended to interest earning deposits
placed with licensed banks. Short term receivables and payables are not significantly exposed to
interest rate risk.
Risk management objectives policies and processes for managing the risk
The Group and the Company are presently enjoying competitive interest rates which are reviewed and
negotiated on a yearly basis. The Group’s and the Company’s surplus funds are placed in fixed and
short term deposits with licensed banks.

Currency risk sensitivity analysis
A 5% strengthening of the Ringgit Malaysia (“RM”) against the above currencies at the end of the
reporting period would have increased the Group’s post-tax profit by approximately RM1,440,000
(2014 : RM1,343,000). This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates,
remained constant and ignores any impact of forecasted sales and purchases. There is no impact to
equity arising from exposure to currency risk.
A 5% weakening of the RM against the above currencies at the end of the reporting period would
have had equal but opposite effect on the above currencies to the amounts shown above, on the basis
that all other variables remained constant.

30.7 Fair value information (Cont'd)
Level 3 fair value
Level 3 fair value is estimated using unobservable inputs for the financial liabilities.
Non-derivative financial liabilities
Fair value, which is determined for disclosure purposes, is calculated based on the present value of future
principal and interest cash flows, discounted at the market rate of interest at the end of the reporting
period. The carrying amount of floating rate term loans approximate their fair values as their effective
interest rate changes accordingly to movements in the market interest rate. In respect of non-current
other payables, the market rate of interest is determined by reference to similar borrowing arrangements
estimated to be 5.33% (2014: Nil).
Non-current deposits collected are refundable upon termination of the lease agreement by tenants
which the Directors do not expect their fair value to differ significantly from its carrying amount.
Transfers between fair values levels
The fair value of an asset to be transferred between levels is determined as of the date of the event or
change in circumstances that caused the transfer.
There has been no transfer between the fair value levels during the financial year (2014: no transfer in
either direction).
31. Capital management
The Group’s objectives when managing capital is to maintain a strong capital base and safeguard the Group’s
ability to continue as a going concern, so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain
future development of the business. The Directors monitor and are determined to maintain an optimal debt-toequity ratio that complies with debt covenants and regulatory requirements.

On 13 August 2015, Ewein Zenith Sdn. Bhd. (“EZSB”) entered into a Memorandum of Understanding
(“MOU”) with Consortium Zenith BUCG Sdn. Bhd. (“CZBUCG”) for the proposed development of 3 parcels
of freehold land measuring in aggregate approximately 50 acres to be known as “Wellness City of Dreams”.
The MOU does not have any binding effect until both parties enter into an agreement that is expected to
be signed by both parties within 6 months from the date of the MOU.
(iii) On 28 September 2015, The Esplanade Park Sdn. Bhd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company
acquired 100,000 ordinary shares of RM1.00 each, representing 50% equity interest in the share capital of

upon which, Kota Cornwallis became an associate of Ewein Berhad.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT'D)
34. Significant events (Cont'd)
(v)
On 28 December 2015, EZIISB entered into a Sale and Purchase Agreement (“SPA”) with CZBUCG to
acquire a freehold land measuring approximately 4.4252 acres for a purchase consideration of
RM162,000,000 of which, EZIISB has paid a refundable deposit of RM16,200,000 during the financial year.
As at the date of this report, the SPA has yet to be completed.
(vi)
On 31 December 2015, the Company paid RM2,880,000 as deposit to acquire 1,000,000 ordinary shares
of RM1.00 each, representing 50% equity interest in UD Piles Sdn. Bhd. (“UD Piles”). The principal activities
of UD Piles are general contractor and sub-contractor for all kinds of construction work. The completion
of the Share Sales Agreement (“SSA”) is subject to the fulfillment of the conditions precedent contained in
the SSA.
35. Subsequent events
(i) On 14 January 2016, EZSB entered into a MOU as mentioned in Note 34 (ii) with CZBUCG to grant EZSB
the right to purchase 3 parcels of freehold land aggregating approximately 50 acres with vacant possession
at approximately RM2,831,400,000.
(ii) On 1 March 2016, the SSA with UD Piles as mentioned in Note 34 (vi) was terminated and deposit paid of
RM2,880,000 was refunded to the Group.
36. Change in accounting policy
The early adoption of MFRS 15 required the Group to review the measurement and timing of when revenue
is recognised. The adoption of MFRS 15 on the Group’s recognition of revenue and costs of sales affected its
property development activities, whereby:
i) The Group had identified separate performance obligations arising from its property development activities
and have deferred revenue for performance obligations that are only satisfied on delivery to its customers;
and
ii)
Expenses attributable to securing contracts with customers had been capitalised and expensed by reference
to the progress towards complete satisfaction of that performance obligation.
The new accounting policy had been adopted retrospectively. However, as the Group only commenced property
development activities in the current financial year, the adoption of MFRS 15 did not have any significant impact
on the comparative amounts and therefore, no restatement of comparative figures has been made.
The Group also applied MFRS 15 retrospectively using the practical expedient in paragraph C5(c) of MFRS 15,
under which the Group does not disclose the amount of consideration allocated to the remaining performance
obligations or an explanation of when the Group expects to recognise the amount as revenue for the reporting
periods presented before the date of the initial application - i.e. 1 January 2015.

of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, as set out on pages 38 to 119.
Directors’ Responsibility for the Financial Statements
The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of financial statements so as to give a true and fair
view in accordance with Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards, International Financial Reporting Standards and
the requirements of the Companies Act, 1965 in Malaysia. The Directors are also responsible for such internal control
as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors’ Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit
in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia. 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 our judgement, including the assessment of risks of material
misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, we
consider internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view
in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of
accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the Directors, as well as evaluating
the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit
opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Group and of the
Company as of 31 December 2015 and of their financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended
in accordance with Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards, International Financial Reporting Standards and the
requirements of the Companies Act, 1965 in Malaysia.
