EMPLOYEES’ SHARE OPTION SCHEME The Company’s Employees’ Share Option Scheme (“ESOS”) was approved by the shareholders at an Extraordinary General Meeting held on December 27, 2002 and became effective on February 18, 2003. The principal features of the ESOS are as follows: (i) The maximum number of shares of the Company which may be subscribed on the exercise of
options granted under the ESOS shall not, in aggregate, exceed ten per centum (10%) of the issued and paid-up share capital of the Company or such maximum percentages as allowable by any other relevant authorities at any point of time during the existence of the ESOS;
(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 of the Group (“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 fifty per centum (50%) (or such percentage as allowable by the relevant
authorities) of the shares available under the ESOS should be allocated, in aggregate, to directors and senior management of the Group; and
(b) not more than ten per centum (10%) (or such percentage as allowable by the relevant
authorities) of the shares available under the ESOS should 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 twenty per centum (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;
(iv) The ESOS shall continue to be in force for a period of ten (10) years and expiring on February 17, 2013;
(v) The price payable upon exercise of each of the option share granted under the ESOS shall be
set based on the 5-days weighted average market price of the Company’s shares, as quoted on the Bursa Malaysia Securities, immediately preceding the date the option is granted, with a discount of not more than ten per centum (10%), if deemed appropriate, or such lower or higher limit in accordance with any prevailing guidelines issued by the SC or any other relevant authorities as amended from time to time, or at the par value of each of the share of the Company, whichever is higher; and

(vi) The new shares to be allotted and issued upon exercise of any option shall upon allotment rank pari passu in all respects with the existing issued and paid-up shares of the Company except that the new shares so allotted shall not be entitled to any dividend, rights, allotment or other distribution unless the shares so allotted have been credited into the relevant securities accounts maintained by Bursa Malaysia Depository Sdn. Bhd. before the entitlement date and will be subject to all the provisions of the Articles of Association of the Company relating to the transfer, transmission or otherwise of the shares of the Company.

Pursuant to Section 169A of the Companies Act, 1965, the Company has applied and has been granted exemption by the Companies Commission of Malaysia from having to disclose the name of employees who have been granted options below 100,000. During the financial year, none of employees have been granted options of 100,000 and above. OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION Before the income statements and balance sheets of the Group and of the Company were made out, the directors took reasonable steps: (a) to ascertain that proper action had been taken in relation to the writing off of bad debts and
the making of allowance for doubtful debts, and have satisfied themselves that all known bad debts had been written off and that adequate allowance has been made for doubtful debts; and
(b) to ensure that any current assets which were unlikely to realise their book values in the
ordinary course of business have been written down to their estimated realisable values. At the date of this report, the directors are not aware of any circumstances: (a) which would render the amount written off for bad debts or the amount of the allowance for
doubtful debts in the financial statements of the Group and of the Company inadequate to any substantial extent; or
(b) which would render the values attributed to current assets in the financial statements of the
Group and of the Company misleading; or (c) 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 (d) not otherwise dealt with in this report or financial statements which would render any amount
stated in the financial statements of the Group and of the Company misleading.
Company No.: 308279 A

At the date of this report, there does not exist: (a) any charge on the assets of the Group and of the Company which has arisen since the end of
the financial year and secures the liability of any other person; and (b) any contingent liability of the Group and of the Company which has arisen since the end of
the financial year. No contingent or other liability 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, no item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature has arisen in the interval between the end of the financial year and the date of this report which is likely to affect substantially the results of operations of the Group and of the Company for the succeeding financial year. SIGNIFICANT EVENTS DURING THE FINANCIAL YEAR A summary of the significant events which occurred during the financial year is set out as follows: a. On March 28, 2006, the Company acquired 100% equity interest in Polytool Systems Sdn.
Bhd. (formerly known as Paradigm Precision Industries Sdn. Bhd.) comprising 2 ordinary shares of RM1 each for a cash consideration of RM1,800.
b. On June 21, 2006, a wholly owned subsidiary company, Polytool Industries (Thailand)

REPORT OF THE AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF KOBAY TECHNOLOGY BHD. (Incorporated in Malaysia) We have audited the accompanying balance sheets as of June 30, 2006 and the related statements of income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s directors. It is our responsibility to form an independent opinion, based on our audit, on these financial statements and to report our opinion to you, as a body, in accordance with Section 174 of the Companies Act, 1965 and for no other purpose. We do not assume responsibility towards any other person for the content of this report. We conducted our audit in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia. These standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall financial statements presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion: (a) the financial statements are properly drawn up in accordance with the provisions of the
Companies Act, 1965 and the applicable MASB approved accounting standards in Malaysia so as to give a true and fair view of:
(i) the state of affairs of the Group and of the Company as of June 30, 2006 and of their
results and cash flows for the year ended on that date; and (ii) the matters required by Section 169 of the Act to be dealt with in the financial
statements and consolidated financial statements; and (b) the accounting and other records and the registers required by the Act to be kept by the
Company and by the subsidiary companies incorporated in Malaysia of which we have acted as auditors have been properly kept in accordance with the provisions of the Act.
We have considered the financial statements and the auditors’ reports of the subsidiary companies, of which we have not acted as auditors, as mentioned under Note 10 to the financial statements, being financial statements that have been included in the consolidated financial statements. (FORWARD)

KOBAY TECHNOLOGY BHD. (Incorporated in Malaysia) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2006 1. GENERAL INFORMATION The Company is principally involved in investment holding and providing management
services. The principal activities of the subsidiary companies are disclosed in Note 10. There have been no significant changes in the nature of the activities of the Group and of the Company during the financial year except that certain subsidiary companies have ceased their manufacturing activities during the financial year as disclosed in Note 10.
The Company is a public limited liability company, incorporated and domiciled in Malaysia,
and is listed on the Main Board of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad. The Company’s registered office and principal place of business are at Plot 30, Hilir Sungai
Kluang Satu, Bayan Lepas Industrial Park, Phase 4, 11900 Penang, Malaysia. The financial statements of the Group and of the Company were authorised for issue by the
Board of Directors in accordance with a resolution of the directors on October 9, 2006. 2. BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The financial statements of the Group and of the Company have been prepared in accordance
with the provisions of the Companies Act, 1965 and the applicable Malaysian Accounting Standards Board (“MASB”) approved accounting standards in Malaysia.
3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Accounting
The financial statements of the Group and of the Company have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless stated otherwise in the accounting policies mentioned below. Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and all its subsidiary companies made up to the end of the financial year. All significant intercompany balances, transactions and resulting unrealised gains are eliminated on consolidation and the consolidated financial statements reflect external transactions only. Unrealised losses are eliminated on consolidation unless costs cannot be recovered.
The Group adopts the acquisition method of consolidation. On acquisition, the assets and liabilities of the relevant subsidiary companies are measured at their fair values at the date of acquisition. The interest of minority shareholders is stated at the minority’s proportion of the fair values of the assets and liabilities recognised.
The results of subsidiary companies acquired or disposed of during the financial year are included in the consolidated financial statements from the effective date of acquisition or up to the effective date of disposal.
Company No.: 308279 A

Revenue and Revenue Recognition Revenue of the Group represents gross invoiced values of sales less returns and discounts, gross dividend income, rental income and interest income. Revenue of the Company represents gross dividend income, interest income and gross service fees from rendering of management services. Sales revenue are recognised upon delivery of products and when the risks and rewards of ownership have passed. Dividend income represents gross dividends from quoted and unquoted investments and is recognised when the shareholder’s right to receive payment is established. Rental income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the agreements entered. Interest income is recognised on a time proportion basis that takes into account the effective yield on the asset. Other operating income is recognised on an accrual basis.
Income Tax Deferred tax is accounted for in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and their corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences, and deferred tax assets are generally 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 deferred tax assets can be utilised.
Foreign Currency Conversion
Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded in Ringgit Malaysia at rates of exchange ruling at the time of the transactions. Foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates ruling at balance sheet date. Translation gains and losses are recognised in the income statements as they arise.
For the purpose of consolidation, the financial statements of the foreign subsidiary companies have been translated into Ringgit Malaysia as follows: Assets and liabilities - at closing rates Issued capital - at historical rates Revenue and expenses - at average rates Exchange differences due to such currency translation are dealt with through translation reserve account under shareholders’ equity. Such translation gains or losses are recognised as income or expenses in the income statements, in the period in which the operation is disposed of.
Company No.: 308279 A

The principal closing rates used in translation of foreign currency amounts and the financial statements of foreign entities are as follows:

Employee Benefits
i. Short-term benefits
Wages, salaries, bonuses and social contributions are recognised as expenses in the year in which the associated services are rendered by employees of the Group and of the Company. Short term accumulating compensated absences such as paid annual leave are recognised when services are rendered by employees that increase their entitlement to future compensated absences, and short-term non-accumulating compensated absences such as sick leave are recognised when the absences occur.
ii. Defined contribution plans
As required by law, companies in Malaysia make contributions to the state pension scheme, the employees’ provident fund. Such contributions are recognised as expenses in the income statements as incurred.
iii. Equity compensation benefits The Kobay Technology Bhd.’s Employees’ Share Option Scheme allows the Group’s
eligible employees to acquire shares of the Company. No compensation cost or obligation is recognised. When the options are exercised, equity is increased by the amount of the proceeds received.
Research and Development Costs Research and development expenditure is written off as an expense except that certain development expenditure relating to specific projects intended for commercial exploitation and for which there is a clear indication of the marketability of the products being developed, is carried forward. Such deferred development expenditure is amortised over the period in which benefits are expected to be derived commencing in the period in which related sales are first made.
Company No.: 308279 A
23
Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost or valuation less accumulated depreciation.
Depreciation of property, plant and equipment except capital-in-progress which is not depreciated, is computed on the straight-line method in order to write off the cost of each asset to its residual value over its estimated useful life.
The annual depreciation rates are as follows: Leasehold land 1.17% - 2% Buildings 1.6% - 2% Factory machinery, moulds and equipment 9% - 20% Furniture, fittings and office equipment 10% - 20% Tools and accessories 10% Motor vehicles 10% - 20% Building improvement and renovation 5% - 20%
As of June 30, 2006, the unexpired lease periods of the long leasehold land and short leasehold land are 80 years, 48 years, 46 years, 45 years and 41 years respectively. The Group carried certain of its short leasehold land and buildings at revalued amounts and placed reliance on the transitional provisions of International Accounting Standards 16 (Revised) as adopted by the Malaysian Accounting Standards Board which provides exemption from the need to make regular revaluations for such assets. Effective from June 30, 1997, no further revaluations were carried out. The aggregate carrying value of such assets as of June 30, 2006 amounted to RM11,812,166 and this amount is depreciated over the remaining useful lives of the relevant assets. An increase in the carrying amount arising from revaluation of property, plant and equipment is credited to the revaluation reserve account as revaluation surplus. Any deficit arising from revaluation is charged against the revaluation reserve account to the extent of a previous surplus held in the revaluation reserve account for the same asset. In all other cases, a decrease in carrying amount is charged to income statements. An increase in revaluation directly related to a previous decrease in carrying amount for that same asset that was recognised as an expense, is credited to income statements to the extent that it offsets the previously recorded decrease. Gain or loss arising from the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, and is recognised in the income statements. On disposal of revalued assets or crystallisation of deferred tax liabilities on revalued assets, the amounts in revaluation reserve account relating to such assets are transferred to retained profit account. Impairment of Assets At each balance sheet date, the Group and the Company reviews the carrying amounts of assets to determine if there is any indication that those assets may be impaired. If any such indication exists, the asset’s recoverable amount, which is the higher of net selling price and value in use, is estimated.
Company No.: 308279 A
24
Whenever the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognised in the income statements, unless the asset is carried at revalued amount, in which case, the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease. An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed unless the loss is caused by a specific external event of an exceptional nature that is not expected to recur and subsequent external events have occurred that reverse the effect of that event. In respect of other assets, an impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimate used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is only reversed 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. A reversal is recognised in the income statements, unless it reverses an impairment loss on revalued assets, in which case, the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase.
Investment in Subsidiary Companies Subsidiary companies are those companies in which the Group has power to exercise control
over the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from their activities. Investment in subsidiary companies, which is eliminated on consolidation, is stated at cost or
at 1997 valuation by the directors on the basis of net tangible asset values of the subsidiary companies as approved by the Securities Commission, less accumulated impairment losses. It was not the intention of the directors then to adopt a policy for revaluation of its long-term investment in subsidiary companies at a regular interval. Accordingly, the Company continues to state its investment in subsidiary companies at its 1997 valuation.
Gain or loss arising from the disposal of an investment is determined as the difference
between the estimated net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the investment, and is recognised in the income statements. On disposal of revalued investments, the amounts in revaluation reserve account relating to the investments disposed are transferred to retained profit account.
Investment in Associated Companies An associated company is a non-subsidiary company in which the Group holds not less than
20% of the equity voting rights as long-term investment and in which the Group is in a position to exercise significant influence in its management.
Investment in associated companies is stated at cost in the Company’s financial statements. Where there is an indication of impairment in the value of the asset, the carrying amount of the investment is assessed and written down immediately to its recoverable amount.
The Group’s investment in associated companies is accounted for under the equity method of
accounting based on the latest audited financial statements of the associated companies made up to June 30, 2006. Under this method of accounting, the Group’s interest in the post-acquisition profit and reserves of the associated companies is included in the consolidated results while dividend received is reflected as a reduction of the investment in the consolidated balance sheet.
Company No.: 308279 A
25
Unrealised profits and losses arising on transactions between the Group and its associated companies are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s equity interest in the relevant associated companies except where unrealised losses provide evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred.
Goodwill arising on the acquisition of associated companies is included within the carrying
amount of the associated companies and represents the excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group’s interest in the fair values of the identifiable net assets of associated companies at the date of acquisition.
Other Investments Investments in quoted shares, unquoted shares, structured products, bond and unit trusts are
stated at cost less allowance for diminution in value of investments to recognise any decline, other than a temporary decline, in the value of the investments. Goodwill/ Reserve on Consolidation Goodwill/ reserve arising on consolidation represents the difference between the cost of acquisition over the Group’s interest in the fair values of the identifiable net assets of the subsidiary companies at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is amortised on a straight line basis over a period of 25 years. Inventories Inventories of the Group are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less selling and distribution costs and all other estimated costs to completion. Cost is determined on the first-in, first-out method. Cost of raw materials, consumables and trading goods consists of the purchase price plus cost of bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Cost of work-in-progress and finished goods consists of cost of raw materials, direct labour and an appropriate proportion of manufacturing overheads. Receivables Receivables are stated at nominal value as reduced by the appropriate allowances for estimated irrecoverable amounts. Allowance for doubtful debts is made based on estimates of possible losses which may arise from non-collection of certain receivables accounts. Borrowings and Payables Borrowings and payables are stated at cost.
Borrowing Costs All interest and other costs incurred in connection with borrowings are expensed as incurred.
Company No.: 308279 A
26
Leasing Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases. Amounts due from lessees under finance leases are recorded as receivables at the amount of the Group’s net investment in the leases. Finance lease income is allocated to accounting periods so as to reflect a constant periodic rate of return on the Group’s net investment outstanding in respect of the leases. Rental income from operating leases is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Assets held under finance leases are recognised as assets of the Group at their fair value at the date of acquisition or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the balance sheets as finance lease obligation. Lease payments are apportioned between finance charges and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are charged directly against income statements. Rentals payable under operating leases are charged to income statements on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease.
Hire-Purchase Property, plant and equipment acquired under hire-purchase arrangements are capitalised in the financial statements and the corresponding obligations are treated as liabilities. Finance charges are allocated to the income statements to give a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining hire-purchase liabilities.
Share Capital Ordinary shares are recorded at the nominal value and proceeds in excess of the nominal value of shares issued, if any, are accounted for as share premium. Both ordinary shares and share premium are classified as equity. Cost incurred directly attributable to the issuance of the shares are accounted for as a deduction from share premium, otherwise the cost is charged to the income statements if there is insufficient share premium. Share Buybacks
Shares bought back are retained as treasury shares under the treasury stock method. Shares repurchased and held as treasury shares are accounted for at the cost of repurchase and set off against equity. Where treasury shares are reissued by re-sale in the open market, the difference between the sales consideration and the carrying amount of the treasury shares is shown as a movement in equity. Where treasury shares are distributed as share dividends to shareholders, the cost of the treasury shares is applied in the reduction of the share premium account or the distributable reserves, or both.
Company No.: 308279 A
27
Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and bank balances, demand deposits and highly
liquid investments which are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
Financial Instruments Financial instruments carried on the balance sheets include short-term deposits, cash and bank
balances, investments, receivables, payables and borrowings. The particular recognition methods adopted are disclosed in the individual accounting policy statements associated with each item.
Financial instruments are classified as liabilities or equity in accordance with the substance of
the contractual arrangement. Interests, dividends, gains and losses relating to a financial instrument classified as liability are reported as expense or income. Distributions to holders of financial instruments classified as equity are charged directly to equity. Financial instruments are offset when the Group and the Company have a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and intend either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Contingent Liabilities A contingent liability is disclosed, unless the possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote.

In 2005, certain property, plant and equipment of the Group with a total carrying value of RM2,325,138 were pledged to a local bank for long-term loan facility obtained as mentioned in Note 28. In 2005, the balance of RM2,300,000 from the disposal of the freehold land by a subsidiary company in 2004 was settled by way of transferring 4 units of double storey semi-detached houses owned by the buyer to the subsidiary company.
Certain of the short leasehold land and buildings were revalued in 1997 based on the reports of an independent firm of professional valuer using open market values on existing use basis. The surplus arising from the revaluation was eliminated on consolidation as the considerations paid for shares in the subsidiary companies which own the revalued properties had taken into consideration the revalued amounts.
Had these assets been carried at historical cost, the carrying amounts of the revalued short leasehold land and buildings will be as follows: The Group 2006 2005 RM RM Cost:

a. Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies
The operations of the Group are subject to a variety of financial risks, including foreign currency risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and cash flow risk. The Group has formulated a financial risk management framework whose principal objective is to minimise the Group’s exposures to risks and/ or costs associated with the financing, investing and operating activities of the Group. Various risk management policies are made and approved by the Board for observation in the day-to-day operations for the controlling and management of the risks associated with financial instruments. i.

The Group’s exposures to changes in interest rates relates primarily to the Group’s finance lease receivables, loan receivables and short-term deposits with licensed banks, and financing through bank borrowings and long-term loan. The short-term deposits are placed with reputable banks. The Group does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge its risk.
iii. Market risk
The Group has in place policies to manage the Group’s exposures to fluctuation in the prices of the key raw materials used in the operations.
Company No.: 308279 A
66
iv. Credit risk
The Group is exposed to credit risk mainly from trade receivables. The Group extends credit to its customers based upon careful evaluation of the customers’ financial conditions and credit histories. The Group also ensures a number of customers so as to limit high credit concentration in a customer or customers from a particular market.
v. Liquidity risk The Group practises prudent liquidity risk management to minimise the mismatch of financial assets and liabilities and to maintain sufficient credit facilities for contingent funding requirement of working capital.
vi. Cash flow risk
The Group reviews its cash flow position regularly to manage its exposures to fluctuations in future cash flows associated with its monetary financial instruments.
b. Credit Risk The maximum credit risk associated with recognised financial assets is the carrying amount shown in the balance sheets. The Group has no significant concentration of credit risk, with exposure spread over a number of counterparties and customers.
c. Fair Values
The carrying amounts and the estimated fair values of the Group’s and the Company’s financial instruments as of June 30, 2006 are as follows:
Carrying Amount Fair Value 2006 2005 2006 2005
RM RM RM RM The Group Financial assets
Other investments Quoted shares 234,006 361,404 152,157 294,573Unquoted shares 272,634 272,634 * * Bond 988,781 - 1,000,000 - Structured products 1,500,000 - 1,501,482 - Unit trusts 650,000 300,000 641,481 273,435

* It is not practical to estimate the fair values of unquoted investments. The directors consider that the carrying amounts of unquoted investments approximate their fair values.
Company No.: 308279 A
67
The carrying amounts of investments in quoted shares and unit trusts of the Group are not reduced to fair value as these are long-term investments and the directors of the Group are of the opinion that the decline in value is temporary in nature. The fair value of long-term loan approximate its carrying amount and is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis based on current borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.
The fair values of other financial assets and other financial liabilities approximate
their carrying amounts because of the short maturity of these instruments.
It is not practical to estimate the fair values of contingent liabilities reliably due to the uncertainties of timing, costs or eventual outcome.
