12 Kobay Technology Bhd. (Company No.: 308279-A) • Annual Report 2012
On behalf of the Board of Directors, I am pleased to present to you the Annual Report and Financial Report of Kobay Technology Bhd. for the financial year ended 30 June 2012.
BusiNess overvieWFor the financial year 2012, the Group’s business environment was challenging and filled with uncertainties. Volatility in world economy as a result of continued economic uncertainty faced by Europe, United States of America and China has affected businesses and consumers sentiment resulting weak market demand. Besides, the volatilities in foreign currency exchange rate, the after-effect of Japan March 2011 earth quake and tsunami and Thailand flood in October 2011 have disrupted the global electrical and electronic manufacturing supply chain. Manufacturers in the semiconductor industry were badly hit and have turned caution and hesitant in their production planning and adopted ‘wait and see’ mode and just-in-time concept for their inventory holding. These have affected the Group’s business activities.
fiNaNciaL revieWFor the financial year under review, as a result of the challenging and uncertainty environment, the Group recorded total loss attributable to owners of the company of RM1.2 million with revenue of RM98.2 million as compared to profit of RM6.5 million and revenue of RM111.2 million in last financial year ended 30 June 2011.
The major business units of the Group that consist of precision metal components division (under Lipo Corporation Berhad Group of companies) continued to deliver profitability although it was less favourable compared to last financial year. The precision components division’s Malaysia operations managed to sustain its profitability but its China operations had suffered loss of RM0.9 million as compared to profit of RM2.6 million in preceding year.
The Group’s precision tooling & equipment division and metal fabrication division delivered negative results. The uncertain global economic condition prompted customers of these divisions to place orders on a minimal need-only basis. Consequently, business volume was significantly affected and inventories in hand were moving slow. On prudent ground, the Group has written down RM2.9 million of slow moving inventories during the financial year under review.
Another factor that accounted for the significant drop in 2012 result was due to the one-off impact on the gain recorded in year 2011 arising from disposal of property and subsidiary amounted to about RM5.4 million.
In respect of financial position, the Group maintains its sound financial footing with net assets per ordinary share attributable to owners of the company as at 30 June 2012 stood at RM1.62 and cash & cash equivalents of RM58.6 million or RM0.87 per share. Although the selective capital reduction and repayment scheme undertaken by Lipo Corporation Berhad (“Lipo”) will reduce the Group’s cash balance by RM29.5 million, the reduction is not expected to bring negative impact to the Group.
oPeratioN revieWFor the companies in precision metal components division, most of them continued to perform well as a result of successful broadening the customer base and expanding into new business market. Loss was incurred in China operation due to decline in incoming orders and discontinued of a major product in view of profit erosion. The newly set-up surface treatment subsidiary in China also suffered loss. The management has decided to cease the China surface treatment operation after financial year end in view of unfavourable prospects.
For the precision tooling & equipment division, the precision tooling company which is in a matured industry managed to produce positive results with their services met up with customers’ expectations in providing one stop engineering solution. The equipment company suffered heavy losses as a result of drop in automation equipment orders with intense competition in the market, coupled with impairment loss for inventory obsolesces for its standard machines. The entry into providing automation solution for solar energy sector did not yield result either, as the sector is faced with fund depletion from the pull out of global governmental funding and provision for debts has to be made for shelved project. The Group has carried out business restructuring by downsizing the manpower and resources of the equipment company during the end of financial year.
For the metal fabrication division which provides heavy machining and fabrication for oil and gas industry, the company suffered loss as a result of cost overrun in meeting the tough and stringent requirements of oil and gas industry. Efforts have been put in to review the business operation to turnaround the company.
For the Group’s other segments, the hotel and food division also suffered losses as a result of intense market competitiveness and the operations have not performed as anticipated. Consequently, the management has decided to discontinue the food business.
CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT
Kobay Technology Bhd. (Company No.: 308279-A) • Annual Report 2012 13
outLook aNd ProsPectLooking forward, the world market is entering a period of slower growth and more caution as sentiment is clouded by the heightened uncertainty in recovery of major global economies, the continued economic woes in Euro Zone and waning consumer confidence. We foresee a lackluster global demand and global economic slowdown taking place and tough times ahead.
We are taking sustainable strategy to face the impact of world economy uncertainties by practicing prudent cost management, efficient operations and organic growth to diversify into other more resilient industries such as aerospace and medical which are relevant to our core competency. At the mean time, we will continuously explore for good business opportunity to optimize our healthy financial position.
In March 2012, the Group embarked on a privatization scheme of Lipo Corporation Berhad, a 53.16% owned subsidiary which is listed on the Main Market of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad. The privatization exercise was completed on 30 October 2012. The Lipo Group houses the precision components division which is the major contributor of Kobay Group’s revenue and net profit. With the privatization, we will account 100% of the division’s financial performances, integrate the management teams and operations of the two Groups and create synergies from the improved economies of scale and more efficient resource allocation.
The consolidation of the Kobay Group and Lipo Group will make our Group a one-stop center for high precision engineering needs which is in line with the Group’s vision to be a pre-eminent supplier of innovative and engineering solutions to our customers. By having a more comprehensive group operations structure, we hope to attain a stronger footing to face the challenges ahead.
divideNdsFor the financial year ended 30 June 2012, in view of the Group’s poor performance, the Board of Directors has decided not to recommend the payment of dividend.
aPPreciatioNLastly, I would like to take this opportunity on behalf of the Board of Directors, to record our sincere appreciation and gratitude of the unwavering support of our customers, business partners and government authorities that have been extended to our Group of companies. We would also like to express our heartfelt thanks to all our employees for their hard work, dedication and commitment.
Thank you.

In making those risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation of financial statements that give a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements have been properly drawn up in accordance with Financial Reporting Standards and the Companies Act 1965 in Malaysia so as to give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Group and the Company as at 30 June 2012 and of their financial performance and cash flows for the financial year then ended.

2.2 future accounting standards
financial reporting standards
For the existing FRS framework, the Malaysian Accounting Standards Board (“MASB”) has issued the following amended/revised/new FRSs which are not yet effective:-
frs (issued as at the end of the reporting period)
effective for annual periods beginning
on or after
Amendments to FRS 1 Severe Hyperinflation and Removal of Fixed Dates for First-time Adopters 1 January 2012

Management foresees that the initial application of the above amended/revised/new FRSs will not have any significant impacts on the financial statements except as follows:-
FRS 9 Financial Instruments
FRS 9 replaces the guidance in FRS 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement on the classification and measurement of financial assets by dividing them into 3 classifications: (1) those measured at amortised cost; (2) those measured at fair value through profit or loss; and (3) those measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. Management foresees that the adoption of these new classifications will not result in any significant changes to the existing measurement bases of financial assets of the Group and the Company.
FRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements
FRS 10 replaces the consolidation guidance in FRS 127 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements and IC Interpretation 112 Consolidation - Special Purpose Entities by introducing a single consolidation model for all entities based on control. Under FRS 10, control is based on whether an investor has (1) power over the investee; (2) exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and (3) the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of the returns. Management foresees that the adoption of these new control criteria will not result in any significant changes to the existing composition of the Group.

2.2 future accounting standards (cont’d)
malaysian financial reporting standards
In November 2011, the MASB issued a new MASB approved accounting framework, the Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards (“MFRS”) framework. The issuance was made in conjunction with the MASB’s plan to converge with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) in 2012. The MFRS framework is a fully IFRS-compliant framework and equivalent to IFRSs. It comprises standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) that are effective on 1 January 2012 and also amended/revised/new standards recently issued by the IASB that will be effective after 1 January 2012. The MFRS framework is to be applied by all entities other than private entities for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2012, with the exception of entities that are within the scope of MFRS 141 Agriculture and/or IC Interpretation 15 Agreements for Construction of Real Estate, including their parents, significant investors and venturers (“Transitioning Entities”). Transitioning Entities will be allowed to defer adoption of the MFRS framework to annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014.
Being a Transitioning Entity as defined above, the Group and the Company have elected to continue preparing their financial statements in accordance with the existing FRS framework for the financial years ending 30 June 2013 and 2014 and will first adopt the MFRS framework for the financial year ending 30 June 2015. Management is currently examining the financial impacts of transition to the MFRS framework.
2.3 Basis of consolidation
A subsidiary is an entity that is controlled by the Group. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries made up to the end of the reporting period using the acquisition method. Under the acquisition method, the consideration transferred, the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are measured at their acquisition-date fair values. The components of non-controlling interests that are present ownership interests are measured at the present ownership instruments’ proportionate share in the recognised amounts of the identifiable net assets acquired. All other components of non-controlling interests are measured at their acquisition-date fair values. In a business combination achieved in stages, the previously held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured at its acquisition-date fair value and any resulting gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss. All acquisition-related costs, other than the costs to issue debt or equity securities, are recognised in profit or loss as incurred.
Goodwill at the acquisition date is measured as the excess of (a) over (b) below:-
(a) the aggregate of:-(i) the acquisition-date fair value of the consideration transferred;(ii) the amount of any non-controlling interests; and(iii) in a business combination achieved in stages, the acquisition-date fair value of the previously held equity
interest in the acquiree.
(b) the net of the acquisition-date fair values of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed.
Goodwill is recognised as an asset at the aforementioned amount less accumulated impairment losses, if any. The impairment policy is disclosed in Note 2.9. When the above (b) exceeds (a), the excess represents a bargain purchase gain and, after reassessment, is recognised in profit or loss.
A subsidiary is consolidated from the acquisition date, being the date on which control is obtained, and continues to be consolidated until the date when control is lost. Intragroup balances, transactions, income and expenses are eliminated in full on consolidation. Total comprehensive income is attributed to the owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. All changes in the parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions.
Upon loss of control of a subsidiary, the assets (including any goodwill) and liabilities of, and any non-controlling interests in the subsidiary are derecognised. All amounts recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to the subsidiary are accounted for on the same basis as would be required if the related assets or liabilities had been directly disposed of. Any consideration received and any investment retained in the former subsidiary are recognised at their fair values. The resulting difference is then recognised as a gain or loss in profit or loss.

2. sigNificaNt accouNtiNg PoLicies (cont’d)
2.4 Property, Plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost or at valuation less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. The impairment policy is disclosed in Note 2.9.
The last revaluation of certain land and buildings was made in 1997 and has not been updated. The Group has followed the transitional provisions of IAS 16 (Revised) Property, Plant and Equipment issued by the Malaysian Accounting Standards Board to retain the carrying amounts of the assets on the basis of their previous revaluation subject to continuity in their depreciation and impairment policies.
A revaluation increase is recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity as revaluation surplus or recognised in profit or loss to the extent that the increase reverses a revaluation decrease of the same asset previously recognised in profit or loss. A revaluation decrease is recognised in profit or loss or recognised in other comprehensive income to the extent of any credit balance existing in the revaluation surplus in respect of the same asset.
Freehold land and capital work-in-progress are not depreciated. Leasehold land is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the lease terms of 43 to 80 years. Other property, plant and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets using the following annual rates
Buildings 2%Building improvement and renovation 2-33%Factory machinery, moulds and equipment 9-20%Furniture, fittings, office equipment and computer software 9-33%Tools and accessories 10%Motor vehicles 10-20%
The residual value, useful life and depreciation method of an asset are reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period and any changes in expectations from previous estimates are accounted for prospectively as changes in accounting estimates.
2.5 Land held for Property development
Land held for property development is stated at cost less accumulated impairment losses, if any. The impairment policy is disclosed in Note 2.9.
2.6 intellectual Property
Intellectual property with an indefinite useful life is stated at cost less accumulated impairment losses, if any. The impairment policy is disclosed in Note 2.9.
2.7 investments in subsidiaries
As required by the Companies Act 1965, the Company prepares separate financial statements in addition to the consolidated financial statements. In the separate financial statements of the Company, investments in subsidiaries are stated at cost less impairment losses, if any. The impairment policy is disclosed in Note 2.9.
2.8 investments in associates
An associate is an entity, other than a subsidiary or a joint venture, over which the Group has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the entity but is not control or joint control over those policies.
In the consolidated financial statements, investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method. Under the equity method, the investment in associate is initially recognised at cost and the carrying amount is subsequently adjusted to recognise the Group’s share of the post-acquisition profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associate. After application of the equity method, the carrying amount of the investment is subject to further impairment assessment. The impairment policy is disclosed in Note 2.9.
In the separate financial statements of the Company, investments in associates are stated at cost less impairment losses, if any. The impairment policy is disclosed in Note 2.9.

2.9 impairment of Non-financial assets
At the end of each reporting period, the Group and the Company assess whether there is any indication that a non-financial asset, other than inventories, may be impaired. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use, is estimated. Irrespective of whether there is any indication of impairment, goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are tested for impairment annually. Any excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its recoverable amount represents an impairment loss and is recognised in profit or loss or, in respect of a revalued asset, treated as a revaluation decrease.
An impairment loss on an asset, other than goodwill, is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount and it is reversed only to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, had no impairment loss been recognised. The reversal is recognised in profit or loss or, in respect of a revalued asset, treated as a revaluation increase. An impairment loss on goodwill is not reversed.
2.10 inventories
Inventories of materials and goods are valued at the lower of cost (determined principally on the first-in, first-out basis) and net realisable value. Cost consists of all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale.
2.11 financial assets
Financial assets of the Group and the Company consist of quoted investments, receivables, derivatives and cash and cash equivalents.
recognition and measurement
A financial asset 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 financial instrument. A regular way purchase or sale of financial assets is recognised or derecognised using settlement date accounting. A financial asset is initially recognised at fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction costs. The subsequent measurement of a financial asset depends on its classification as follows:-
(i) financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
All derivatives, except for those designated as hedges, are classified as held for trading under this category. After initial recognition, such financial assets are measured at fair value. Any gain or loss arising from a change in the fair value is recognised in profit or loss.
(ii) held-to-maturity investments
The Group and the Company do not have any financial assets classified under this category.
(iii) Loans and receivables
All receivables and cash and cash equivalents are classified under this category. After initial recognition, such financial assets are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Any gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss when the financial asset is derecognised or impaired as well as through the amortisation process.
(iv) available-for-sale financial assets
All quoted investments (other than interests in subsidiaries) are classified under this category. After initial recognition, such financial assets are measured at fair value. Any gain or loss arising from a change in the fair value, except for impairment loss, is recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity as fair value reserve until the financial asset is derecognised, at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified from equity to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment.
A financial asset is derecognised when, and only when, the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset have expired or all the risks and rewards of ownership have been substantially transferred.

2.11 financial assets (cont’d)
impairment
At the end of each reporting period, the Group and the Company assess whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. If any such evidence exists, the impairment loss is measured as follows:-
(i) financial assets carried at amortised cost
An impairment loss on loans and receivables is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted using the asset’s original effective interest rate. The asset’s carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account and the impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss. The gross carrying amount and the associated allowance are written off when there is no realistic prospect of future recovery.
If, in a subsequent period, the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed what the amortised cost would have been had no impairment loss been recognised at the reversal date. The reversal is recognised in profit or loss.
(ii) available-for-sale financial assets
When there is a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of an investment classified as available-for-sale, the cumulative loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified from equity to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment even though the financial asset has not been derecognised. Such cumulative loss reclassified from equity to profit or loss represents an impairment loss and is measured as the difference between the acquisition cost and current fair value, less any impairment loss previously recognised in profit or loss. The impairment loss is not reversed through profit or loss in any subsequent period.
determination of fair values
The carrying amounts of receivables and cash and cash equivalents which are short-term in nature or repayable on demand are assumed to be reasonable approximations of fair values.
Fair value measurements recognised in the statement of financial position are categorised into the following levels of fair value hierarchy:-
Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and Level 3 - Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
The fair values of quoted investments are determined by reference to their quoted closing bid prices at the end of the reporting period (i.e. Level 1).
The fair values of forward exchange contracts are quoted by the financial institutions. If such quotation is not available, the fair value is estimated by discounting the difference between the contractual forward price and the current forward price for the residual maturity of the contract using a risk-free interest rate (i.e. Level 2).

2.12 financial Liabilities
Financial liabilities of the Group and the Company consist of payables, loans and borrowings and derivatives (including financial guarantee contracts).
recognition and measurement
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 financial instrument. A financial liability is initially recognised at fair value less, in the case of a financial liability not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction costs. After initial recognition, all financial liabilities, except for financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss and financial guarantee contracts, are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Any gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss when the financial liability is derecognised as well as through the amortisation process.
(i) financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
All derivatives, except for financial guarantee contracts or those designated as hedges, are classified as held for trading under this category. After initial recognition, such financial liabilities are measured at fair value. Any gain or loss arising from a change in the fair value is recognised in profit or loss.
(ii) financial guarantee contracts
After initial recognition at fair value, if any, financial guarantee contracts are measured at the higher of the amount initially recognised less appropriate amortisation and the estimate of any probable obligation.
A financial liability is derecognised when, and only when, the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
determination of fair values
The carrying amounts of payables and loans and borrowings which are short-term in nature or repayable on demand are assumed to be reasonable approximations of fair values.
The fair values of long-term loans and borrowings are estimated by discounting the expected future cash flows using the current market interest rates for similar liabilities.
Fair value measurements recognised in the statement of financial position are categorised into the following levels of fair value hierarchy:-
Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and Level 3 - Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
The fair values of forward exchange contracts are quoted by the financial institutions. If such quotation is not available, the fair value is estimated by discounting the difference between the contractual forward price and the current forward price for the residual maturity of the contract using a risk-free interest rate (i.e. Level 2).
The fair values of financial guarantee contracts are estimated based on probability-adjusted discounted cash flow analysis after considering the probability of default by the debtors (i.e. Level 3).

2.13 Leases
finance Lease
A finance lease is a lease that transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset to the lessee.
A finance lease, including hire purchase, is initially recognised as an asset and liability at the fair value of the leased asset or, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments. The minimum lease payments are subsequently apportioned between the finance charge and the reduction of the outstanding liability so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. The depreciation policy for depreciable leased assets is consistent with that for equivalent owned assets.
operating Lease
An operating lease is a lease other than a finance lease.
Lease payments under an operating lease are recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
2.14 foreign currency transactions and translation
The consolidated financial statements and separate financial statements of the Company are presented in Ringgit Malaysia, which is also the Company’s functional currency, being the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. Items included in the financial statements of each individual entity within the Group are measured using the individual entity’s own functional currency.
A foreign currency transaction is recorded in the functional currency using the exchange rate at transaction date. At the end of the reporting period, foreign currency monetary items are translated into the functional currency using the closing rate. Foreign currency non-monetary items measured at cost are translated using the exchange rate at transaction date whereas those measured at fair value are translated using the exchange rate at valuation date. Exchange differences arising from the settlement or translation of monetary items are recognised in profit or loss. Any exchange component of the gain or loss on a non-monetary item is recognised on the same basis as that of the gain or loss, i.e. in profit or loss or in other comprehensive income.
In translating the financial position and results of a foreign operation whose functional currency is not the required presentation currency, i.e. Ringgit Malaysia, assets and liabilities are translated into the presentation currency using the closing rate whereas income and expenses are translated using the exchange rates at transaction dates. All resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity as currency translation reserve until the foreign operation is disposed of, at which time the cumulative exchange differences previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified from equity to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment.
Any goodwill and fair value adjustments arising from the acquisition of a foreign operation are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operation to be expressed in its functional currency and translated into the presentation currency using the closing rate.
2.15 share capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Transaction costs that relate to the issue of new shares are accounted for as a deduction from equity.
Own shares purchased are held as treasury shares in accordance with the requirements of Section 67A of the Companies Act 1965. The total amount of consideration paid, including directly attributable costs, is recognised directly in equity. When treasury shares are distributed as share dividends, the cost of the shares distributed is applied in the reduction of share premium and/or distributable reserves. When treasury shares are cancelled, an amount equivalent to their nominal value is transferred from share capital to a capital redemption reserve and the total cost of the treasury shares cancelled is adjusted to share premium and/or other suitable reserves.
Dividends on shares declared and unpaid at the end of the reporting period are recognised as a liability whereas dividends proposed or declared after the reporting period are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements.

2.16 income recognition
Income from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer.
Income from the rendering of services is recognised when the services are performed.
Dividend income is recognised when the shareholder’s right to receive payment is established.
Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method.
2.17 government grants
Government grants are recognised when there is reasonable assurance that the Group will comply with the conditions attaching to the grants and that the grants will be received. Government grants are recognised in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the periods in which the Group recognises as expenses the related costs for which the grants are intended to compensate. Grants related to assets are presented in the statement of financial position as deferred income which is amortised on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Grants related to income are presented under “other income” in the statement of comprehensive income.
2.18 employee Benefits
short-term employee Benefits
Short-term employee benefits such as wages, salaries, bonuses and social security contributions are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which the associated services are rendered by the employee.
defined contribution Plans
As required by law, employers in Malaysia make contributions to the statutory pension scheme, Employees Provident Fund (“EPF”). The Group’s foreign subsidiaries make contributions to their respective countries’ statutory pension schemes. Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which the associated services are rendered by the employee.
equity compensation Benefits
The Employees’ Share Option Schemes (“ESOSs”) of the Company and a subsidiary grant the Group’s eligible employees options to subscribe for shares in the Company and the subsidiary at pre-determined subscription prices. These equity compensation benefits are recognised in profit or loss with a corresponding increase in equity over the vesting period as share option reserve. The total amount to be recognised is determined by reference to the fair value of the share options at grant date and the estimated number of share options expected to vest on vesting date.
2.19 Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset, which is an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale, are capitalised as part of the cost of the asset, until such time as the asset is substantially ready for its intended use or sale. All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

2.20 income taxes
Income taxes for the year comprise current tax and deferred tax.
Current tax represents the expected amount of income taxes payable in respect of the taxable profit for the year and is measured using the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Deferred tax is provided for under the liability method in respect of all temporary differences between the carrying amount of an asset or liability and its tax base except for those temporary differences associated with goodwill or the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction which is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable results at the time of the transaction.
A deferred tax liability is recognised for all taxable temporary differences whereas a deferred tax asset is recognised for all deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and unused tax credits to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and unused tax credits can be utilised. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
2.21 cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash in hand, bank balances, demand deposits, term deposits (excluding those pledged as security), bank overdrafts and short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
3. JudgemeNts aNd estimatioN uNcertaiNtY
Judgements made in applying accounting Policies
In the process of applying the accounting policies of the Group and the Company, management makes the following judgements, apart from those involving estimations, that can significantly affect the amounts recognised in the financial statements:-
(i) classification of leasehold land
The classification of leasehold land as a finance lease or an operating lease requires the use of judgement in determining the extent to which risks and rewards incidental to ownership lie. Despite the fact that there will be no transfer of ownership by the end of the lease term and that the lease term does not constitute the major part of the indefinite economic life of the land, management considered that the present value of the minimum lease payments approximated to the fair value of the land at the inception of the lease. Accordingly, management judged that the Group has acquired substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the land through a finance lease.
(ii) impairment of available-for-sale financial assets
When there is a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of an investment classified as available-for-sale, the cumulative decline represents an impairment loss. The determination of what constitutes “significant or prolonged” requires judgement. In making this judgement, management continuously evaluates the historical share price movements and the duration and extent of the decline in fair value below cost. For the financial year ended 30 June 2012, the Group has recognised impairment loss of RM34,901 on available-for-sale financial assets.
sources of estimation uncertainty
The key assumptions about the future, and other major sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period, that have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below:-
(i) depreciation of property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Management estimates the useful lives to be within 3 to 50 years. Changes in the expected level of usage and technological development will impact on the economic useful lives and residual values of the assets and therefore, future depreciation charges may be revised. The carrying amounts of property, plant and equipment are disclosed in Note 4.

3. JudgemeNts aNd estimatioN uNcertaiNtY (cont’d)
sources of estimation uncertainty (cont’d)
(ii) impairment of non-financial assets
When the recoverable amount of a non-financial asset is determined based on its value in use, estimates on future cash flows and appropriate discount rate are required to determine the present value of those cash flows. The carrying amounts of non-financial assets subject to impairment assessment are disclosed in Notes 4, 5 and 6.
(iii) allowance for inventories
Reviews are made periodically by management on inventories for excess inventories, obsolescence and decline in net realisable value below cost. These reviews require the use of judgements and estimates. Possible changes in these estimates may result in revisions to the valuation of inventories. The carrying amounts of inventories are disclosed in Note 10.
(iv) impairment of loans and receivables
The Group and the Company make allowance for impairment based on an assessment of the recoverability of loans and receivables. Allowance is applied to loans and receivables when there is objective evidence that the balances may not be recoverable. Management specifically analyses historical bad debts, customer concentration, customer creditworthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment terms when making a judgement to evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for impairment. Where expectations are different from previous estimates, the difference will impact on the carrying amounts of loans and receivables as disclosed in Note 11.
(v) income taxes
There are certain transactions and computations for which the ultimate tax determination may be different from the initial estimates. The Group and the Company recognise tax assets/liabilities based on their understanding of the prevailing tax laws and estimates of whether such assets/liabilities will be realised/settled in the ordinary course of business. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts initially recognised, the difference will impact on the tax recognition in the period in which the outcome is determined. The carrying amounts of tax assets/liabilities as at 30 June 2012 are as follows:-

The Employees’ Share Option Scheme (“ESOS”) of the Company is governed by the Bye-Laws approved by the shareholders at an Extraordinary General Meeting held on 27 December 2002.
The principal features of the ESOS are as follows:-

(ii) In order to qualify for participation in the ESOS, a participant must be an eligible executive director or employee of the Group. Eligibility, however, does not confer an eligible executive director or employee a claim or right to participate in the ESOS unless an offer has been extended to the eligible executive director or employee.
(iii) The number of new shares that may be offered and allotted to any eligible executive director and employee of the Group, who are entitled to participate in the ESOS, shall be at the discretion of the committee appointed by the Board of Directors (“Option Committee”) after taking into consideration the performance, seniority and length of service of the eligible executive directors and employees in the Group and such other factors that the Option Committee may deem relevant subject to the following:-
(a) not more than 50% (or such percentage as allowable by the relevant authorities) of the shares available under the ESOS shall be allocated, in aggregate, to directors and senior management of the Group; and
(b) not more than 10% (or such percentage as allowable by the relevant authorities) of the shares available under the ESOS shall be allocated to any individual director or employee who, either singly or collectively through his/her associates (as defined in the Companies Act 1965), holds 20% or more in the issued and paid-up share capital of the Company;
provided always that it is in accordance with any prevailing guidelines issued by the Securities Commission (“SC”) or any other relevant authorities as amended from time to time.

The basic (loss)/earnings per share is calculated by dividing the Group’s (loss)/profit for the financial year attributable to owners of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the financial year as follows:-
2012 2011
(Loss)/Profit for the financial year attributable to owners of the Company (RM) (1,291,845) 6,552,955
Weighted average number of shares in issue 67,352,550 67,352,550
Basic (loss)/earnings per share (sen) (1.92) 9.73
The diluted (loss)/earnings per share equals the basic (loss)/earnings per share due to the anti-dilutive effect of the share options which has been ignored in calculating the diluted (loss)/earnings per share.

The total utilisation of these credit facilities as at 30 June 2012 amounted to approximately RM78,000 (2011 : RM157,000). An unutilised credit line of RM31,778,000 has been cancelled after the reporting period.
The aforementioned financial guarantee contracts should have been recognised in the statement of financial position in accordance with the recognition and measurement policies as stated in Note 2.12. After considering that the probability of the subsidiaries defaulting on the credit lines is remote, the financial guarantee contracts have not been recognised as the fair values on initial recognition are not expected to be material.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAl STATEMENTSFor The Financial Year Ended 30 June 2012
30. fiNaNciaL risk maNagemeNt
The activities of the Group expose it to certain financial risks, including credit risk, liquidity risk and currency risk. The overall financial risk management objective of the Group is to ensure that adequate financial resources are available for business development whilst minimising the potential adverse impacts of financial risks on its financial position, performance and cash flows.
The aforementioned financial risk management objective and its related policies and processes explained below have remained unchanged from the previous financial year.
credit risk
The Group’s exposure to credit risk arises mainly from receivables, derivative financial assets and deposits placed with financial institutions. The maximum credit risk exposure of these financial assets is best represented by their respective carrying amounts in the statement of financial position. The Company is also exposed to credit risk in respect of its financial guarantees provided for credit facilities granted to certain subsidiaries. The maximum credit risk exposure of these financial guarantees is the total utilisation of the credit facilities granted as disclosed in Note 29.
As the Group only deals with reputable financial institutions, the credit risk associated with derivative financial assets and deposits placed with them is minimal. The Group manages its credit risk exposure of receivables by assessing counterparties’ financial standings on an ongoing basis, setting and monitoring counterparties’ limits and credit terms.
Liquidity risk
The Group’s exposure to liquidity risk relates to its ability to meet obligations associated with financial liabilities as and when they fall due. The remaining contractual maturities of financial liabilities are disclosed in their respective notes.
The Group practises prudent liquidity risk management to minimise the mismatch of financial assets and liabilities whilst maintaining sufficient cash and the availability of funding through standby credit facilities.
currency risk
The Group’s exposure to currency risk arises mainly from transactions entered into by individual entities within the Group in currencies other than their functional currencies. The major functional currencies within the Group are Ringgit Malaysia (“RM”) and Renminbi (“RMB”) whereas the major foreign currency transacted is US Dollar (“USD”).
The Group observes the movements in exchange rates and acts accordingly to minimise its exposure to currency risk. Where necessary, the Group enters into derivative contracts to hedge the exposure. Such exposure is also partly mitigated in the following ways:-
(i) The Group’s foreign currency sales and purchases provide a natural hedge against fluctuations in foreign currencies.
(ii) The Group maintains part of its cash and cash equivalents in foreign currency accounts to meet future obligations in foreign currencies.
Based on a symmetric basis which uses the foreign currency as a stable denominator, the following table demonstrates the sensitivity of profit or loss to changes in exchange rates that were reasonably possible at the end of the reporting period, with all other variables held constant:-

31. caPitaL maNagemeNt
The overall capital management objective of the Group is to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern so as to provide fair returns to owners and benefits to other stakeholders. In order to meet this objective, the Group always strives to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital and sustain its business development.
The Group considers its total equity (including non-controlling interests) and total loans and borrowings to be the key components of its capital structure and may, from time to time, adjust the dividend payouts, purchase own shares, issue new shares, sell assets, raise or redeem debts, where necessary, to maintain an optimal capital structure. Management has not formulated any formal policies and processes for monitoring the Group’s capital in view of its simple structure. Nevertheless, management will always strive to improve those policies and processes whenever the need arises.
32. sigNificaNt eveNts duriNg aNd after the rePortiNg Period
On 22 March 2012, the Company issued a letter to its subsidiary, Lipo Corporation Berhad (“Lipo”), proposing the privatisation of Lipo via a selective capital reduction and repayment exercise pursuant to Section 64 of the Companies Act 1965 (“Proposed SCR”). Under the Proposed SCR, up to 29,929,250 ordinary shares of RM1.00 each in Lipo will be cancelled and the holders of the shares cancelled, other than the Company, will receive a capital repayment of RM1.25 per share. Upon completion of the Proposed SCR, Lipo will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
The Proposed SCR was approved by the shareholders of Lipo at an Extraordinary General Meeting held on 10 August 2012. Following that, the petition to obtain an order of the High Court of Malaya at Penang (“High Court”) to confirm the Proposed SCR had been filed on 22 August 2012 and the High Court had, on 28 September 2012, granted the said order.
At the date when the financial statements were authorised for issue, all required approvals for the Proposed SCR had been duly obtained and the entitlement date to receive the capital repayment had been fixed on 25 October 2012. The capital repayment is expected to be made within 10 days from the entitlement date, and the Proposed SCR shall become effective upon lodgement of the High Court order with the Companies Commission of Malaysia.
