Dear Shareholders,
On behalf of the Board of Directors of TRIplc Berhad, I have the pleasure of presenting to you the Annual Report, incorporating the audited Financial Statements of the Group and the Company, for the financial year ended 31 May 2011.
CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT
TRIplc BERHAD (242896-A)a n n u a l r e p o r t 2 0 1 1 15
BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT
With the Malaysian economy back on its growth trajectory after the 2008/2009 global financial crisis, the Malaysian economy grew by 7.2% in 2010 and continued to expand despite the more challenging external environment. Real Gross Domestic Product (“GDP”) registered a growth of 4.4% during the first half of 2011.
The construction sector expanded 2.1% during the first half of 2011 led by recovery in residential construction as well as increased activity in the non-residential sub-sectors. Construction activity in the residential sub-sector rebounded on the back of favourable economic and business conditions, rising household income, favourable labour market conditions as well as accommodative financing.
In line with the improved sentiments, our property sales has also increased as reflected in the financial performance of the Group.
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
For the financial year 31 May 2011, the Group registered a lower revenue of RM7.59 million as compared to RM98.45 million in the previous financial year due to the completion of the construction work at Zone 1 Phase 1 of Universiti Teknologi MARA (“UiTM”) Puncak Alam Campus in the previous financial year. The current year revenue was contributed by the sale of bungalow lots at Taman Puncak Perdana in Section U10, Shah Alam, Selangor and commencement of construction work at Zone 1 Phase 2 of UiTM Puncak Alam Campus.
Accordingly, the Group’s profit before tax and profit after tax for the current financial year under review decreased to RM3.08 million and RM1.10 million from the previous financial year of RM6.22 million and RM1.14 million respectively.
PROSPECTS
Despite the uncertainties in the external sector, the Malaysian economy is envisaged to sustain its growth momentum underpinned by resilient domestic demand. Strong economic fundamentals coupled with pragmatic macroeconomic policies and implementation of the Economic Transformation Programme (“ETP”) will enhance domestic sources of growth. Domestic demand,
in particular private sector expenditure is expected to play a more significant role in driving economic expansion in 2012. The public sector will remain supportive of growth with higher capital spending by Non-Financial Public Enterprises (“NFPEs”). The Government will continue to provide an enabling environment to facilitate private investment by implementing key initiatives under the National Key Results Areas (“NKRAs”) and National Key Economic Areas (“NKEAs”).

TRIplc BERHAD (242896-A)a n n u a l r e p o r t 2 0 1 116
The construction sector is projected to grow strongly by 7% in 2012 driven by commencement of large infrastructure projects and vibrant housing construction activities. The civil engineering sub-sector will be supported by the implementation of development projects to enhance the long-term potential growth of the economy. Meanwhile, the residential sub-sector is expected to expand further with improving household income, accommodative financing and the Government’s continuous support for home ownership.
There will be ample opportunity for the Group to secure some projects in particular with the upliftment of the Company’s status as an affected listed issuer under the amended Practice Note 17/2005 (“PN17”) of the Listing Requirements of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad. We are optimistic that in the financial year 2012, we would see a significant growth in the revenue of the Group. The Group intends to maintain its momentum through its current strategy of focusing on core businesses and reviewing its assets portfolio for opportunities whilst keeping an eye on strategic opportunities to benefit the Group in the long term.
CORPORATE DEVELOPMENTS
During the financial year, the Group obtained approval for the following corporate proposals to be implemented:
(a) Proposed issue of up to RM240 million nominal value medium term notes under a medium term notes programme.
(b) Proposed issue of up to RM85 million nominal value junior notes under a junior notes programme.
(c) Proposed regularisation scheme prepared pursuant to the Company’s obligation to meet the provisions of Practice Note 17/2005 of the Listing Requirements of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad which comprised four (4) proposals i.e. Proposed Capitalisation, Proposed Disposal, Proposed Capital Reduction and Proposed Consolidation.
The RM240 million nominal value medium term notes was issued subsequent to the financial year end and the rest of the corporate proposals are still in implementation stage.
RECLASSIFICATION OF SECTOR
With effect from 11 July 2011, the Company’s shares were reclassified from ‘Properties’ sector to ‘Construction’ sector by Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad to better reflect the Company’s main business activity.

PENYATA PENGERUSI
Para Pemegang Saham yang dihormati,
Bagi pihak Lembaga Pengarah TRIplc Berhad, dengan sukacitanya saya membentangkan Laporan Tahunan, yang menggabungkan Penyata Kewangan Kumpulan dan Syarikat, yang telah diaudit bagi tahun kewangan berakhir pada 31 Mei 2011.
PERSEKITARAN PERNIAGAAN
Dengan ekonomi Malaysia yang telah kembali pada pertumbuhan trajektori selepas krisis kewangan global 2008/2009, ekonomi Malaysia telah meningkat sebanyak 7.2% pada tahun 2010 dan terus berkembang walaupun dalam persekitaran luaran yang lebih mencabar. Pertumbuhan Keluaran Dalam Negara Kasar (“GDP”) mencatatkan pertumbuhan sebanyak 4.4% pada separuh pertama 2011.
Sub-sektor pembinaan berkembang 2.1% pada separuh pertama tahun 2011 yang diterajui oleh pemulihan dalam pembinaan kediaman serta peningkatan aktiviti di dalam sub-sektor bukan kediaman. Aktiviti pembinaan dalam sub-sektor kediaman telah kembali pulih berikutan keadaan ekonomi dan perniagaan yang menggalakkan, pendapatan isi rumah yang meningkat, keadaan pasaran buruh serta pembiayaan yang sesuai.
Selaras dengan sentimen yang bertambah baik, jualan hartanah kami juga telah meningkat seperti yang dicerminkan dalam prestasi kewangan Kumpulan.
PRESTASI KEWANGAN
Bagi tahun kewangan berakhir 31 Mei 2011, Kumpulan telah mencatatkan perolehan yang lebih rendah iaitu sebanyak RM7.59 juta berbanding RM98.45 juta pada tahun kewangan yang lepas berikutan siapnya kerja-kerja pembinaan Zon 1 Fasa 1 Kampus Universiti Teknologi MARA (“UiTM”) Puncak Alam pada tahun kewangan lepas. Perolehan untuk tahun ini disumbang oleh hasil penjualan lot-lot banglo di Taman Puncak Perdana, Seksyen U10, Shah Alam, Selangor dan permulaan kerja-kerja pembinaan Zon 1 Fasa 2 Kampus UiTM Puncak Alam.
Oleh yang demikian, keuntungan sebelum cukai dan keuntungan selepas cukai Kumpulan bagi tahun kewangan semasa yang dikaji telah berkurangan kepada RM3.08 juta dan RM1.10 juta dari tahun kewangan sebelum ini iaitu masing-masing sebanyak RM6.22 juta dan RM1.14 juta.
PROSPEK
Walaupun terdapat ketidaktentuan di dalam sektor luar negara, ekonomi Malaysia dijangka mengekalkan momentum pertumbuhan yang disokong oleh daya tahan permintaan dalam negeri. Asas ekonomi yang kukuh berserta dasar-dasar makroekonomi yang pragmatik
dan pelaksanaan Program Transformasi Ekonomi (“ETP”) akan meningkatkan sumber pertumbuhan dalam negara. Permintaan domestik, khususnya perbelanjaan sektor swasta dijangka memainkan peranan yang lebih penting dalam memacu pembangunan ekonomi pada 2012. Sektor awam akan terus menyokong pertumbuhan dengan perbelanjaan modal yang lebih tinggi oleh Perusahaan Awam Bukan Kewangan (“NFPEs”). Kerajaan akan terus menyediakan persekitaran yang memudahkan pelaburan swasta dengan melaksanakan inisiatif utama di bawah Bidang Keberhasilan Utama Nasional (“NKRAs”) dan Bidang Ekonomi Utama Negara (“NKEAs”)

Sektor pembinaan dijangka berkembang kukuh sebanyak 7% pada tahun 2012 didorong oleh permulaan projek-projek infrastruktur yang besar dan aktiviti pembinaan kediaman yang bersemangat. Sub-sektor kejuruteraan awam akan disokong oleh pelaksanaan projek-projek pembangunan untuk meningkatkan potensi pertumbuhan ekonomi dalam jangkamasa panjang. Sementara itu, sub-sektor kediaman dijangka terus berkembang dengan peningkatan pendapatan isi rumah, pembiayaan yang sesuai dan sokongan berterusan Kerajaan bagi pemilikan rumah sendiri.
Terdapat banyak peluang untuk Kumpulan bagi mendapatkan projek-projek terutamanya dengan terkeluarnya status Syarikat dari Pindaan Nota Amalan 17/2005 (“PN17”) mengikut Keperluan Penyenaraian Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad. Kami optimistik bahawa dalam tahun kewangan 2012, kami akan menyaksikan pertumbuhan yang ketara terhadap perolehan Kumpulan. Kumpulan berhasrat untuk mengekalkan momentum melalui strategi semasa dengan memberi tumpuan terhadap perniagaan teras dan mengkaji semula portfolio aset untuk sebarang peluang sambil mengawasi peluang strategik yang boleh memberi manfaat kepada Kumpulan dalam jangkamasa panjang.
PEMBANGUNAN KORPORAT
Dalam tempoh tahun kewangan, Kumpulan telah memperolehi kelulusan bagi cadangan-cadangan korporat untuk dilaksanakan seperti berikut:
(a) Cadangan menerbitkan sehingga RM240 juta nilai nominal nota jangka sederhana dibawah program nota jangka sederhana.
(b) Cadangan menerbitkan sehingga RM85 juta nilai nominal nota junior di bawah program nota junior.
(c) Cadangan Skim Pengaturan yang disediakan mengikut obligasi Syarikat untuk mematuhi peruntukan-peruntukan Pindaan Nota Amalan 17/2005 mengikut Keperluan Penyenaraian Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad yang mengandungi empat (4) cadangan iaitu Cadangan Penilaian Permodalan, Cadangan Pelupusan, Cadangan Pengurangan Modal dan Cadangan Penggabungan.
Nota jangka sederhana bernilai RM240 juta telah diterbitkan selepas tahun kewangan berakhir manakala baki cadangan korporat yang selebihnya masih diperingkat pelaksanaan.
PENGKELASAN SEMULA SEKTOR
Berkuatkuasa dari 11 Julai 2011, saham Syarikat telah dikelaskan semula iaitu dari sektor “Hartanah” kepada sektor “Pembinaan” oleh Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad bagi mencerminkan dengan lebih jelas aktiviti perniagaan utama Syarikat.

Directors’ Responsibility For The Financial Statements

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.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.

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 applicable approved Financial Reporting Standards and the provisions of the Companies Act, 1965 in Malaysia so as to give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Group and of the Company as of 31 May 2011 and of the financial performance and cash flows of the Group and of the Company for the financial year then ended.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS31 MAY 20111. CORPORATE INFORMATION The Company is a public limited liability company, incorporated and domiciled in Malaysia and listed on the Main
Market of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad.
The registered office of the Company is located at No. 8, Ground Floor, Jalan Apollo CH U5/CH, Bandar Pinggiran Subang, Seksyen U5, 40150 Shah Alam, Selangor Darul Ehsan.
The principal place of business of the Company is located at No. 6-8, Jalan Apollo CH U5/CH, Bandar Pinggiran Subang, Seksyen U5, 40150 Shah Alam, Selangor Darul Ehsan.
The financial statements are presented in Ringgit Malaysia (“RM”), which is the functional currency of the Company.
The financial statements were authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution by the Board of Directors on 29 September 2011.
2. PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES
The Company is principally an investment holding company and engaged in property construction and related activities. The principal activities of its subsidiaries are disclosed in Note 10 to the financial statements. There have been no significant changes in the nature of these activities during the financial year.
3. BASIS OF PREPARATION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The financial statements of the Group and of the Company have been prepared in accordance with applicable approved Financial Reporting Standards (‘FRSs’) and the provisions of the Companies Act, 1965 in Malaysia. However, Note 39 has been prepared in accordance with Guidance on Special Matter No. 1, Determination of Realised and Unrealised Profits or Losses in the Context of Disclosure Pursuant to Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad Listing Requirements, as issued by the Malaysian Institute of Accountants (‘MIA Guidance’) and the directive of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad.
4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
4.1 Basis of accounting
The financial statements of the Group and of the Company have been prepared under the historical cost convention except as otherwise stated in the financial statements.
The preparation of financial statements requires the Directors to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and contingent liabilities. In addition, the Directors are also required to exercise their judgement in the process of applying the accounting policies. The areas involving such judgements, estimates and assumptions are disclosed in Note 6 to the financial statements. Although these estimates and assumptions are based on the Directors’ best knowledge of events and actions, actual results could differ from those estimates.
4.2 Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and all its subsidiaries made up to the end of the financial year.
All the subsidiaries are consolidated using the purchase method of accounting except for a subsidiary acquired prior to 1 January 2006, as disclosed in Note 10 to the financial statements which was consolidated using the merger method of accounting.
TRIplc BERHAD (242896-A)a n n u a l r e p o r t 2 0 1 158
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS31 MAY 2011 (cont’d)4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont’d)
4.2 Basis of consolidation (cont’d)
(a) Under the purchase method of accounting, the cost of business combination is measured at the aggregate of fair values at the date of exchange, of assets given, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity instruments issued plus any costs directly attributable to the business combination.
At the acquisition date, the cost of business combination is allocated to identifiable assets, liabilities
assumed and contingent liabilities in the business combination which are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The excess of the cost of business combination over the Group’s interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities is recognised as goodwill (see Note 4.8 to the financial statements on goodwill). If the cost of business combination is less than the interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities, the Group will:
(i) reassess the identification and measurement of the acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities and the measurement of the cost of the business combination; and
(ii) recognise immediately in profit or loss any excess remaining after that reassessment.
When a business combination includes more than one exchange transaction, any adjustment to the fair values of the subsidiary’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities relating to previously held interests of the Group is accounted for as a revaluation.
(b) For the acquisition of a subsidiary prior to 1 June 2006 which previously met the criteria for merger of businesses, the said investment is accounted for under the merger method of accounting. Under the merger method of accounting, the results of the subsidiary acquired during the financial year are accounted for on a full year basis.
The difference between the cost of investment and the nominal value of shares acquired at the date of acquisition is treated as merger reserve or deficit. The merger deficit is written off against reserve immediately.
Subsidiaries are consolidated from the acquisition date, which is the date on which the Group effectively obtains control, until the date on which the Group ceases to control the subsidiaries. Control exists when the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. In assessing control, the existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently convertible or exercisable are taken into consideration.
Intragroup balances, transactions and unrealised gains and losses on intragroup transactions are eliminated in full. Intragroup losses may indicate an impairment that requires recognition in the consolidated financial statements. If a subsidiary uses accounting policies other than those adopted in the consolidated financial statements for like transactions and events in similar circumstances, appropriate adjustments are made to its financial statements in preparing the consolidated financial statements.
The gain or loss on disposal of a subsidiary, which is the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the Group’s share of its net assets as of the date of disposal including the carrying amount of goodwill and the cumulative amount of any exchange differences that relate to the subsidiary, is recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
4.3 Property, plant and equipment and depreciation
All items of property, plant and equipment are initially measured at cost. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset.
TRIplc BERHAD (242896-A)a n n u a l r e p o r t 2 0 1 1 59
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS31 MAY 2011 (cont’d)4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont’d)
4.3 Property, plant and equipment and depreciation (cont’d)
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when the cost is incurred and it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the asset will flow to the Group and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of parts that are replaced is derecognised. The costs of the day-to-day servicing of property, plant and equipment are recognised in profit or loss as incurred. Cost also comprises the initial estimate of dismantling and removing the asset and restoring the site on which it is located for which the Group is obligated to incur when the asset is acquired, if applicable.
Each part of an item of property, plant and equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the asset and which has different useful life, is depreciated separately.
After initial recognition, property, plant and equipment except for freehold land are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. The freehold land which has been subsequently revalued, are stated at valuation less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.
Freehold land has unlimited useful life and is not depreciated. The long term leasehold land with 99 years lease expiring on 25 March 2093 is amortised over its remaining lease period at the date of acquisition of 93 years. Depreciation on other property, plant and equipment is calculated to write off the costs or valuation of the assets to their residual values on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives. The principal depreciation rates are as follows:
Buildings 2% Plant and machinery 7 ½ % Office equipment and fittings 10% - 33 ⅓ % Motor vehicles 20%
At the end of each reporting period, the carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment is assessed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. A write down is made if the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount (see Note 4.9 to the financial statements on impairment of non-financial assets).
The residual values, useful lives and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period to ensure that the amount, method and period of depreciation are consistent with previous estimates and the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits embodied in the items of property, plant and equipment. If expectations differ from previous estimates, the changes are accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate.
The carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised on disposal or when no
future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. The difference between the net disposal proceeds, if any, and the carrying amount is included in profit or loss and the revaluation surplus related to those assets, if any, is transferred directly to retained earnings.
4.4 Leases and hire purchase
(a) Finance leases and hire purchase
Assets acquired under finance leases and hire purchase which transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the Group are recognised initially at amounts equal to the fair value of the asset or, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments, each determined at the inception of the lease. The discount rate used in calculating the present value of the minimum lease payments is the interest rate implicit in the leases, if this is practicable to determine; if not, the Group’s incremental borrowing rate is used. Any initial direct costs incurred by the Group are added to the amount recognised as an asset. The assets are capitalised as property, plant and equipment and the corresponding obligations are treated as liabilities. The property, plant and equipment capitalised are depreciated on the same basis as owned assets.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS31 MAY 2011 (cont’d)4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont’d)
4.4 Leases and hire purchase (cont’d)
(a) Finance leases and hire purchase (cont’d) The minimum lease payments are apportioned between the finance charges and the reduction of the
outstanding liability. The finance charges are recognised in profit or loss over the period of the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining lease and hire purchase liabilities.
(b) Operating leases
A lease is classified as an operating lease if it does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership.
Lease payments under operating leases are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
(c) Leases of land and buildings
For leases of land and buildings, the land and buildings elements are considered separately for the purpose of lease classification and these leases are classified as operating or finance leases in the same way as leases of other assets.
The minimum lease payments including any lump-sum upfront payments made to acquire the interest in the land and buildings are allocated between the land and the buildings elements in proportion to the relative fair values of the leasehold interests in the land element and the buildings element of the lease at the inception of the lease.
For a lease of land and buildings in which the amount that would initially be recognised for the land
element is immaterial, the land and buildings are treated as a single unit for the purpose of lease classification and is accordingly classified as a finance or operating lease. In such a case, the economic life of the buildings is regarded as the economic life of the entire leased asset.
Following the adoption of Amendment to FRS 117 Leases contained in the Improvements to FRSs (2009),
the Group reassessed the classification of land elements of unexpired leases on the basis of information existing at the inception of those leases. Consequently, the Group retrospectively reclassified all prepaid lease payments for land as finance leases as disclosed in Notes 8 and 38 to the financial statements.
4.5 Property development activities
(a) Land held for property development
Land held for property development is stated at cost less impairment losses, if any. Such land is classified as non-current assets when no significant development work has been carried out or where development activities are not expected to be completed within the normal operating cycle.
Cost associated with the acquisition of land includes the purchase price of the land, professional fees, stamp duties, commissions, conversion fees and other relevant levies.
Land held for property development is transferred to property development costs (under current assets) at the point when development activities have commenced and where it can be demonstrated that the development activities can be completed within the normal operating cycle.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS31 MAY 2011 (cont’d)4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont’d)
4.5 Property development activities (cont’d)
(b) Property development costs
Property development costs comprise all cost that are directly attributable to the development activities or that can be allocated on a reasonable basis to such activities. They comprise the cost of land under development, construction costs and other related development costs common to the whole project including professional fees, stamp duties, commissions, conversion fees and other relevant levies as well as borrowing costs. Where the Group had previously recorded the land at revalued amount, it continues to retain this amount as its surrogate cost as allowed by FRS 2012004 Property Development Activities. Where an indication of impairment exists, the carrying amount of the asset is assessed and written down immediately to its recoverable amount (see Note 4.9 to the financial statements on impairment of non-financial assets).
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.
Where revenue recognised in profit or loss exceeds billings to purchasers, the balance is classified as accrued billings under current assets. Where billings exceed revenue recognised in profit or loss, the balance is shown as progress billings under current liabilities.
Where applicable, the fair value of land at the date of acquisition of subsidiaries is carried forward in place of cost.
4.6 Construction contract
Contract costs comprise costs related directly to the specific contract and those that are attributable to the contract activity in general and can be allocated to the contract and such other cost that are specifically chargeable to the customer under the terms of the contract.
When the total costs incurred on construction contracts plus recognised profits (less recognised losses), exceed progress billings, the balance is classified as amount due from customers for contract work. When progress billings exceed costs incurred plus recognised profits (less recognised losses), the balance is classified as amount due to customers for contract work.
4.7 Investments in subsidiaries
A subsidiary is an entity in which the Group and the Company have the power to control the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from its activities. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Group has such power over another entity.
An investment in subsidiary, which is eliminated on consolidation, is stated in the Company’s separate financial statements at cost less impairment losses, if any. On disposal of such an investment, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and its carrying amount is included in profit or loss.
4.8 Goodwill
Goodwill recognised in a business combination is recognised as an asset at the acquisition date and is initially measured at cost being the excess of the cost of business combination over the Group’s interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities. After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses, if any. Goodwill is not amortised but instead tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may be impaired. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS31 MAY 2011 (cont’d)4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont’d)
4.9 Impairment of non-financial assets
The carrying amount of assets, except for financial assets (excluding investments in subsidiaries), assets arising from construction contract, property development costs, deferred tax asset and non-current asset (or disposal group) held for sale, are reviewed at the end of each reporting period to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated.
Goodwill which has an indefinite useful life shall be tested annually for impairment or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the goodwill might be impaired.
The recoverable amount of an asset is estimated for an individual asset. Where it is not probable to estimate the recoverable amount of the individual asset, the impairment test is carried out on the cash generating unit (“CGU”) to which the asset belongs. Goodwill acquired in a business combination is from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the Group’s CGU or groups of CGU that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination giving rise to the goodwill irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquiree are assigned to those units or groups of units.
The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the higher of its fair value less cost to sell and its value in
use.
In estimating the value in use, the estimated future cash inflows and outflows to be derived from continuing use of the asset and from its ultimate disposal 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 for which the future cash flow estimates have not been adjusted. An impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss when the carrying amount of the asset or the CGU, including the goodwill, exceeds the recoverable amount of the asset or the CGU. The total impairment loss is allocated, first, to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU and then to the other assets of the CGU on a pro-rata basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the CGU.
The impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately except for the impairment on a revalued
asset where the impairment loss is recognised directly against the revaluation reserve to the extent of the surplus credited from the previous revaluation for the same asset with the excess of the impairment loss charged to profit or loss.
An impairment loss on goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods. An impairment loss for other assets
is reversed if, and only if, there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the assets’ 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.
Such reversals are recognised as income immediately in profit or loss except for the reversal of an impairment
loss on a revalued asset where the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase and credited to the revaluation reserve account of the same asset. However, to the extent that an impairment loss on the same revalued asset was previously recognised in profit or loss, a reversal of that impairment loss is also recognised in profit or loss.
4.10 Financial instruments
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one enterprise and a financial liability or equity instrument of another enterprise.
TRIplc BERHAD (242896-A)a n n u a l r e p o r t 2 0 1 1 63
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS31 MAY 2011 (cont’d)4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont’d)
4.10 Financial instruments (cont’d) A financial asset is any asset that is cash, an equity instrument of another enterprise, a contractual right to
receive cash or another financial asset from another enterprise, or a contractual right to exchange financial assets or financial liabilities with another enterprise under conditions that are potentially favourable to the Group.
A financial liability is any liability that is a contractual obligation to deliver cash or another financial asset to another enterprise, or a contractual obligation to exchange financial assets or financial liabilities with another enterprise under conditions that are potentially unfavourable to the Group.
Financial instruments are recognised on the statement of financial position when the Group has become a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. At initial recognition, a financial instrument is recognised at 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 issuance of the financial instrument.
An embedded derivative is separated from the host contract and accounted for as a derivative if, and only if the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative is not closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative meets the definition of a derivative, and the hybrid instrument is not measured at fair value through profit or loss.
(a) Financial assets
A financial asset is classified into the following four categories after initial recognition for the purpose of subsequent measurement:
(i) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss comprise financial assets that are held for trading (i.e. financial assets acquired principally for the purpose of resale in the near term), derivatives (both, freestanding and embedded) and financial assets that were specifically designated into this classification upon initial recognition.
Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value. Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of financial assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in profit or loss. Net gains or losses on financial assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss exclude foreign exchange gains and losses, interest and dividend income. Such income is recognised separately in profit or loss as components of other income or other operating losses.
However, derivatives that is linked to and must be settled by delivery of unquoted equity instruments that do not have a quoted market price in an active market are recognised at cost.
(ii) Held-to-maturity investments
Financial assets classified as held-to-maturity comprise non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity that the Group has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity.
Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets classified as held-to-maturity are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Gains or losses on financial assets classified as held-to-maturity are recognised in profit or loss when the financial assets are derecognised or impaired, and through the amortisation process.

4.10 Financial instruments (cont’d)
(a) Financial assets (cont’d)
(iii) Loans and receivables
Financial assets classified as loans and receivables comprise non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market.
Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets classified as loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Gains or losses on financial assets classified as loans and receivables are recognised in profit or loss when the financial assets are derecognised or impaired, and through the amortisation process.
(iv) Available-for-sale financial assets
Financial assets classified as available-for-sale comprise non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available for sale or are not classified as loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments or financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.
Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets classified as available-for-sale are measured at fair value. Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of financial assets classified as available-for-sale are recognised directly in other comprehensive income, except for impairment losses and foreign exchange gains and losses, until the financial asset is derecognised, at which time the cumulative gains or losses previously recognised in other comprehensive income are recognised in profit or loss. However, interest calculated using the effective interest method is recognised in profit or loss whilst dividends on available-for-sale equity instruments are recognised in profit or loss when the Group’s right to receive payment is established.
Cash and cash equivalents include cash and bank balances, bank overdrafts, deposits and other short term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three (3) months or less, which are readily convertible to cash and are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value.
A financial asset is derecognised when the contractual right to receive cash flows from the financial asset has expired. On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the carrying amount and the sum of consideration received (including any new asset obtained less any new liability assumed) and any cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised directly in other comprehensive income shall be recognised in profit or loss.
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 marketplace convention.
(b) Financial liabilities
Financial instruments are classified as liabilities or equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement. A financial liability is classified into the following two categories after initial recognition for the purpose of subsequent measurement:
(i) Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss comprise financial liabilities that are held for trading, derivatives (both, freestanding and embedded) and financial liabilities that were specifically designated into this classification upon initial recognition.

4.10 Financial instruments (cont’d)
(b) Financial liabilities (cont’d)
(i) Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (cont’d)
Subsequent to initial recognition, financial liabilities classified as at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value. Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of financial liabilities classified as at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in profit or loss. Net gains or losses on financial liabilities classified as at fair value through profit or loss exclude foreign exchange gains and losses, interest and dividend income. Such income is recognised separately in profit or loss as components of other income or other operating losses.
(ii) Other financial liabilities
Financial liabilities classified as other financial liabilities comprise non-derivative financial liabilities that are neither held for trading nor initially designated as at fair value through profit or loss.
Subsequent to initial recognition, other financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Gains or losses on other financial liabilities are recognised in profit or loss when the financial liabilities are derecognised and through the amortisation process.
A financial liability is derecognised when, and only when, it is extinguished, i.e. when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expired. An exchange between an existing borrower and lender of debt instruments with substantially different terms are accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition of a new financial liability. Similarly, a substantial modification of the terms of an existing financial liability is accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition of a new financial liability.
The difference between the carrying amount of a 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.
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.
(c) Equity
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Group and the Company after deducting all of its liabilities. Ordinary shares are classified as equity instruments.
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. Transaction costs of an equity transaction are accounted for as a deduction from equity, net of any related income tax benefit. Otherwise, they are charged to profit or loss.
Dividends to shareholders are recognised in equity in the period in which they are declared.
If the Company reacquires its own equity instruments, the consideration paid, including any attributable transaction costs is deducted from equity as treasury shares until they are cancelled. No gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the Company’s own equity instruments. Where such shares are issued by resale, the difference between the sales consideration and the carrying amount is shown as a movement in equity.

4.10 Financial instruments (cont’d)
Following the adoption of FRS 139 during the financial year, the Group reassessed the classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities as at 1 June 2010. There is no effect arising from the adoption of FRS 139, hence, no opening statement of financial position as at 1 June 2010 was presented.
4.11 Impairment of financial assets
The Group assesses whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset is impaired at the end of each reporting period.
(a) Loans and receivables
The Group collectively considers factors such as the probability of bankruptcy or significant financial difficulties of the receivable, and default or significant delay in payments to determine whether there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on loans and receivables has occurred. Other objective evidence of impairment include historical collection rates determined on an individual basis and observable changes in national or local economic conditions that are directly correlated with the historical default rates of receivables.
If any such objective evidence exists, the amount of impairment loss is measured as the difference between the financial asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. The impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss.
The carrying amount of loans and receivables are reduced through the use of an allowance account.
If in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and it objectively relates to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed to the extent that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its amortised cost at the reversal date. The amount of impairment reversed is recognised in profit or loss.
4.12 Borrowing costs
Borrowing cost that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset is capitalised as part of the cost of the asset until when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use or sale are complete, after which such expense is charged to profit or loss. A qualifying asset is an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale. Capitalisation of borrowing cost is suspended during extended periods in which active development is interrupted.
The amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation is the actual borrowing costs incurred on the
borrowing during the period less any investment income on the temporary investment of the borrowing.
All other borrowing costs are recognised in the profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

4.13 Income taxes
Income taxes include all domestic taxes on taxable profit.
Income taxes also include other taxes, such as withholding taxes and real property gains taxes payable on disposal of properties.
Taxes in the statement of comprehensive income comprise current tax and deferred tax.
(a) Current tax
Current tax is the amount of income taxes payable or receivable in respect of the taxable profit or loss for a period.
Current tax for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
(b) Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in full using the liability method on temporary differences arising between the carrying amount of an asset or liability in the statement of financial position and its tax base.
Deferred tax is recognised for all temporary differences, unless the deferred tax arises from goodwill or the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction which is not a business combination and at the time of transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit.
A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and unused tax credits can be utilised. The carrying amount of a deferred tax asset is reviewed at the end of each reporting period. If it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow the benefit of part or all of that deferred tax asset to be utilised, the carrying amount of the deferred tax asset will be reduced accordingly. When it becomes probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available, such reductions will be reversed to the extent of the taxable profits.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when the deferred income taxes relate to the same taxation authority on either:
(i) the same taxable entity; or
(ii) different taxable entities which intend either to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis, or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be settled or recovered.
Deferred tax will be recognised as income or expense and included in the profit or loss for the period unless the tax relates to items that are credited or charged, in the same or a different period, directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax will be charged or credited directly to equity.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting period.

4.14 Provisions
Provisions are recognised when there is a present obligation, legal or constructive, as a result of a past event, when it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the amount of a provision will be discounted to its present value at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability.
Provisions are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. If it is no longer probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, the provision will be reversed.
Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses. If the Group has a contract that is onerous, the
present obligation under the contract shall be recognised and measured as a provision.
4.15 Contingent liabilities and contingent assets
A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whose existence will be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the Group or a present obligation that is not recognised because it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation. A contingent liability also arises in extremely rare cases where there is a liability that cannot be recognised because it cannot be measured reliably. The Group does not recognise a contingent liability but discloses its existence in the financial statements.
A contingent asset is a possible asset that arises from past events whose existence will be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the Group. The Group does not recognise contingent assets but discloses its existence where inflows of economic benefits are probable, but not virtually certain.
4.16 Employee benefits
4.16.1 Short term employee benefits
Wages, salaries, social security contributions, paid annual leave, paid sick leave, bonuses and non-monetary benefits are recognised as an expense in the year when employees have rendered their services to the Group.
Short term accumulating compensated absences such as paid annual leave are recognised as an expense when employees render services that increase their entitlement to future compensated absences. Short term non-accumulating compensated absences such as sick leave are recognised when the absences occur.
Bonuses are recognised as an expense when there is a present, legal or constructive obligation to make such payments, as a result of past events and when a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

4.16.2 Defined contribution plan
The Company and its subsidiaries incorporated in Malaysia make contributions to a statutory provident fund. The contributions are recognised as a liability after deducting any contribution already paid and as an expense in the period in which the employees render their services.
4.16.3 Share-based payments
The Group operates an equity-settled share-based compensation plan, allowing the employees of the Group to acquire ordinary shares of the Company at predetermined prices. The total fair value of share options granted to employees is recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in the share option reserve within equity over the vesting period and taking into account the probability that the options will vest.
The fair value of share options is measured at grant date, taking into account, if any, the market vesting conditions upon which the options were granted but excluding the impact of any non-market vesting conditions. Non-market vesting conditions are included in assumptions about the number of options that are expected to become exercisable on vesting date.
At the end of each reporting period, the Group revises its estimates of the number of options that are expected to become exercisable on vesting date. It recognises the impact of the revision of original estimates, if any, in the profit or loss, and a corresponding adjustment to equity over the remaining vesting period. The equity amount is recognised in the share option reserve until the options are exercised, upon which it will be transferred to share premium, or until the options expires, upon which it will be transferred directly to retained earnings.
The proceeds received net of any directly attributable transaction costs are credited to equity when the options are exercised.
4.17 Revenue recognition
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable net of discounts and rebates.
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Group, and the amount of revenue and the cost incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be reliably measured and specific recognition criteria have been met for each of the Group’s activities as follows:
(a) Property development
Property development revenue is recognised in respect of all development units that have been sold. Revenue recognition commences when the sale of the development unit is effected, upon the commencement of development and construction activities and when the financial outcome can be reliably estimated. The attributable portion of property development cost is recognised as an expense in the period in which the related revenue is recognised. The amount of such revenue and expenses recognised is determined by reference to the stage of completion of development activity at the end of the reporting period. The stage of completion is measured by reference to the proportion that property development costs incurred for work performed to date bear to the estimated total property development cost.

Any expected loss on a development project is recognised as an expense immediately, including costs
to be incurred over the defects liability period.
(b) Joint venture property development
Revenue from joint venture property development project is recognised on an accrual basis and in accordance with the percentage of the Group’s entitlement as stipulated in the joint venture agreement.
(c) Construction contracts
Profits from contract works are recognised on a percentage of completion method. Percentage of completion is determined on the proportion of contract costs incurred for work performed to date against total estimated costs where the outcome of the project can be estimated reliably.
When it is probable that total contract costs will exceed total contract revenue, the expected loss is recognised as an expense immediately.
Where the outcome of a construction contract cannot be reliably estimated, revenue is recognised only to the extent of contracts costs incurred that is probable will be recoverable and contract costs are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.
(d) Rental income
Rental income is recognised on a straight line basis over the term of an ongoing lease.
(e) Maintenance works
Revenue from maintenance works is recognised upon performance of services.
(f) Fees from property management

4.18 Non-current assets (or disposal groups) held for sale
Non-current assets (or disposal groups) are classified as held for sale if their carrying amounts will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. For this to be the case, the assets must be available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms that are usual and customary for sales of such assets and its sale must be highly probable.
The sale is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one (1) year from the date of classification. However, an extension of the period required to complete the sale does not preclude the assets (or disposal groups) from being classified as held for sale if the delay is caused by events or circumstances beyond the control of the Group and there is sufficient evidence that the Group remains committed to its plan to sell the assets (or disposal groups).
Immediately before the initial classification as held for sale, the carrying amounts of the non-current assets (or all the assets and liabilities in a disposal group) are measured in accordance with applicable FRSs. On initial classification as held for sale, non-current assets or disposal group (other than investment properties, deferred tax assets, employees benefits assets, and financial assets carried at fair value) are measured at the lower of carrying amount before the initial classification as held for sale and fair value less costs to sell. The differences, if any, are recognised in profit or loss as impairment loss.
Non-current assets (or disposal groups) held for sale are classified as current assets (and current liabilities, in the case of non-current liabilities included within disposal groups) on the face of the statement of financial position and are stated at the lower of carrying amount immediately before initial classification and fair value less costs to sell and are not depreciated. Any cumulative income or expense recognised directly in equity relating to the non-current asset (or disposal groups) classified as held for sale is presented separately.
If the Group has classified an asset (or disposal group) as held for sale but subsequently the criteria for classification is no longer met, the Group ceases to classify the asset (or disposal group) as held for sale. The Group measures a non-current asset that ceases to be classified as held for sale (or ceases to be included in a disposal group classified as held for sale) at the lower of:
(a) its carrying amount before the asset (or disposal group) was classified as held for sale, adjusted for any depreciation, amortisation or revaluations that would have been recognised had the asset (or disposal group) not been classified as held for sale; and
(b) its recoverable amount at the date of the subsequent decision not to sell.
4.19 Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the “functional currency”). The financial statements are presented in Ringgit Malaysia (“RM”), which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency.
4.20 Operating segments
Following the adoption of FRS 8 Operating Segments during the current financial year, operating segments are defined as components of the Group that:
(a) engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses (including revenues and expenses relating to transactions with other components of the Group);
(b) whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the Group’s chief operating decision maker (i.e. the Group’s Managing Director) in making decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assessing its performance; and

(c) for which discrete financial information is available.
An operating segment may engage in business activities for which it has yet to earn revenues.
The Group reports separately information about each operating segment that meets any of the following quantitative thresholds:
(a) Its reported revenue, including both sales to external customers and intersegment sales or transfers, is ten (10) per cent or more of the combined revenue, internal and external, of all operating segments.
(b) The absolute amount of its reported profit or loss is ten (10) per cent or more of the greater, in absolute amount of:
(i) the combined reported profit of all operating segments that did not report a loss; and
(ii) the combined reported loss of all operating segments that reported a loss.
(c) Its assets are ten (10) per cent or more of the combined assets of all operating segments.
Operating segments that do not meet any of the quantitative thresholds may be considered reportable, and separately disclosed, if the management believes that information about the segment would be useful to users of the financial statements.
Total external revenue reported by operating segments shall constitute at least seventy five (75) percent of the Group’s revenue.
4.21 Earnings per share
(a) Basic
Basic earnings per ordinary share for the financial year is calculated by dividing the profit for the financial year attributable to owners of the parent by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year.
(b) Diluted
Basic earnings per ordinary share for the financial year is calculated by dividing the profit for the financial year attributable to owners of the parent by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year adjusted for the effects of diluted potential ordinary shares.

IC Interpretation 12 Service Concession Arrangements is mandatory for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2010. (cont’d)
Consideration received or receivable by the operator for the provision of construction or upgrade services shall be recognised at its fair value. If the consideration consists of an unconditional contractual right to receive cash or another financial asset from the grantor, it shall be classified as a financial asset. Conversely, if the consideration consists of a right to charge users of the public service, it shall be classified as an intangible asset.
Upon adoption of this Interpretation, the consideration receivable from the grantor of the concession
agreement is classified as a financial asset, which is measured in accordance with FRS 139.
5.2 New FRS adopted during the current financial year
(a) FRS 8 and the consequential amendments resulting from FRS 8 are mandatory for annual financial periods beginning on or after 1 July 2009.
FRS 8 sets out the requirements for the disclosure of information on the Group’s operating segments, products and services, the geographical areas in which it operates and its customers.
The requirements of this Standard are based on the information about the components of the Group that management uses to make decisions about operating matters. This Standard requires the identification of operating segments on the basis of internal reports that are regularly reviewed by the Group’s chief operating decision maker in order to allocate resources to the segment and assess its performance, as elaborated in Note 4.20 to the financial statements.
The Group’s segment reporting has been presented based on the internal reporting to the chief operating decision maker who makes decision on the allocation of resources and assess the performance of the reportable segments.
The Group concluded that the operating segments defined by the Group under FRS 8 were the same as the segment reporting defined previously under FRS1142004. Likewise, the measures used to assess the performance of the segments correspond to those previously presented under FRS1142004. Consequently, the adoption of FRS 8 has no significant impact on the presentation of the Group’s reportable segments and impairment on cash-generating units based on the new definition of operating segments.
(b) FRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures and the consequential amendments resulting from FRS 7 are mandatory for annual financial periods beginning on or after 1 January 2010. FRS 7 replaces the disclosure requirements of the existing FRS 132 Financial Instruments: Disclosure and Presentation.
This Standard applies to all risks arising from a wide array of financial instruments and requires the disclosure of the significance of financial instruments for the Group’s financial position and performance.
(c) FRS 123 Borrowing Costs and the consequential amendments resulting from FRS 123 are mandatory for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2010.
This Standard removes the option of immediately recognising as an expense borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset. However, capitalisation of borrowing costs is not required for assets measured at fair value, and inventories that are manufactured or produced in large quantities on a repetitive basis, even if they take a substantial period of time to get ready for use or sale.
There is no impact upon adoption of this Standard during the financial year.

The cost method of accounting for an investment has also been removed pursuant to these amendments.
There is no impact upon adoption of these amendments during the financial year.
(g) IC Interpretation 9 Reassessment of Embedded Derivatives is mandatory for annual financial periods beginning on or after 1 January 2010.

This Interpretation requires share-based payment transactions in which the Company receives services from employees as consideration for its own equity instruments to be accounted for as equity-settled, regardless of the manner of satisfying the obligations to the employees.
If the Company grants rights to its equity instruments to the employees of its subsidiaries, this Interpretation requires the Company to recognise the equity reserve for the obligation to deliver the equity instruments when needed whilst the subsidiaries shall recognise the remuneration expense for the services received from employees.
If the subsidiaries grant rights to equity instruments of the Company to its employees, this Interpretation requires the Company to account for the transaction as cash-settled, regardless of the manner the subsidiaries obtain the equity instruments to satisfy its obligations.
There is no impact upon adoption of this Interpretation during the financial year.
The Group would like to draw attention to the withdrawal of this Interpretation for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011 as disclosed in Note 5.3(j) to the financial statements.
(j) IC Interpretation 13 Customer Loyalty Programmes is mandatory for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2010.

If the Group supplies the awards itself, the consideration allocated to the award credits shall only be recognised as revenue when the award credits are redeemed. If a third party supplies the awards, the Group shall assess whether it is acting as a principal or agent in the transaction.
If the Group is acting as the principal in the transaction, it shall measure its revenue as the gross consideration allocated to the award credits. If the Group is acting as an agent, it shall measure its revenue as the net amount retained on its own account, and recognise the net amount as revenue when the third party becomes obliged to supply the awards and entitled to receive the consideration for doing so.
There is no impact upon adoption of this Interpretation during the financial year.

FRS 101 sets out the overall requirements for the presentation of financial statements, guidelines for their structure and minimum requirements for their content.
This Standard introduces the titles ‘statement of financial position’ and ‘statement of cash flows’ to replace the current titles ‘balance sheet’ and ‘cash flow statement’ respectively. A new statement known as the ‘statement of comprehensive income’ is also introduced in this Standard whereby all non-owner changes in equity are required to be presented in either one statement of comprehensive income or in two statements (i.e. a separate income statement and a statement of comprehensive income). Components of comprehensive income are not permitted to be presented in the statement of changes in equity.
This Standard also introduces a new requirement to present a statement of financial position as at the
beginning of the earliest comparative period if there are applications of retrospective restatements that are defined in FRS 108, or when there are reclassifications of items in the financial statements.
Additionally, FRS 101 requires the disclosure of reclassification adjustments and income tax relating to each component of other comprehensive income, and the presentation of dividends recognised as distributions to owners together with the related amounts per share in the statement of changes in equity or in the notes to the financial statements.
This Standard introduces a new requirement to disclose information on the objectives, policies and processes for managing capital based on information provided internally to key management personnel as defined in FRS 124 Related Party Disclosures. Additional disclosures are also required for puttable financial instruments classified as equity instruments.
Following the adoption of this Standard, the Group has reflected the new format of presentation and additional disclosures warranted in the primary financial statements and relevant notes to the financial statements.
(m) Amendments to FRS 139, FRS 7 and IC Interpretation 9 are mandatory for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2010.
These amendments permit reclassifications of non-derivative financial assets (other than those designated at fair value through profit or loss upon initial recognition) out of the fair value through profit or loss category in rare circumstances. Reclassifications from the available-for-sale category to the loans and receivables category are also permitted provided there is intention and ability to hold that financial asset for the foreseeable future. All of these reclassifications shall be subjected to subsequent reassessments of embedded derivatives.

There is no impact upon adoption of this amendment during the financial year.
Amendment to FRS 140 Investment Property clarifies that properties that are being constructed or developed for future use as investment property are within the definition of ‘investment property’.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS31 MAY 2011 (cont’d)5. ADOPTION OF NEW FRSs AND AMENDMENT TO FRSs (cont’d)
5.3 New FRSs that have been issued, but not yet effective and not yet adopted
(a) FRS 1 First-time Adoption of Financial Reporting Standards is mandatory for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2010.
This Standard supersedes the existing FRS 1 and shall be applied when the Group adopts FRSs for the first time via the explicit and unreserved statement of compliance with FRSs. An opening FRS statement of financial position shall be prepared and presented at the date of transition to FRS, whereby:
(i) All assets and liabilities shall be recognised in accordance with FRSs;(ii) Items of assets and liabilities shall not be recognised if FRSs do not permit such recognition;(iii) Items recognised in accordance with previous GAAP shall be reclassified in accordance with FRSs;
and(iv) All recognised assets and liabilities shall be measured in accordance with FRSs.
All resulting adjustments shall therefore be recognised directly in retained earnings at the date of
transition to FRSs.
There is no impact upon adoption of this Standard during the financial year.
(b) FRS 3 Business Combinations is mandatory for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2010.
This Standard supersedes the existing FRS 3 and now includes business combinations involving mutual entities and those achieved by way of contract alone. Any non-controlling interest in an acquiree shall be measured at fair value or as the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the acquiree’s net identifiable assets.
The time limit on the adjustment to goodwill due to the arrival of new information on the crystallisation of deferred tax benefits shall be restricted to the measurement period resulting from the arrival of the new information. Contingent liabilities acquired arising from present obligations shall be recognised, regardless of the probability of outflow of economic resources.
Acquisition-related costs shall be accounted for as expenses in the periods in which the costs are incurred and the services are received. Consideration transferred in a business combination, including contingent consideration, shall be measured and recognised at fair value at acquisition date.
In business combinations achieved in stages, the acquirer shall remeasure its previously held equity interest at its acquisition date fair value and recognise the resulting gain or loss in profit or loss.
The Group does not expect any impact on the financial statements arising from the adoption of this Standard.
(c) FRS 127 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements is mandatory for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2010.
This Standard supersedes the existing FRS 127 and replaces the current term ‘minority interest’ with the new term ‘non-controlling interest’ which is defined as the equity in a subsidiary that is not attributable, directly or indirectly, to a parent. Accordingly, total comprehensive income shall be 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.
Changes in the Group’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions. If the Group loses control of a subsidiary, any gains or losses are recognised in profit or loss and any investment retained in the former subsidiary shall be remeasured at its fair value at the date when control is lost.

(c) FRS 127 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements is mandatory for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2010. (cont’d)
According to its transitional provisions, the revised FRS 127 has been applied prospectively, and does
not impact the Group’s consolidated financial statements in respect of transactions with non-controlling interest, attribution of losses to non-controlling interest, and disposal of subsidiaries before 1 July 2010. These changes would only affect future transactions with non-controlling interest.
(d) Amendments to FRSs are mandatory for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2010.
Amendments to FRS 2 Share-based Payments clarify that transactions in which the Group acquired goods as part of the net assets acquired in a business combination or contribution of a business on the formation of a joint venture are excluded from the scope of this Standard. The Group does not expect any impact on the financial statements arising from the adoption of these amendments.
Amendments to FRS 5 clarify that non-current asset classified as held for distribution to owners acting in their capacity as owners are within the scope of this Standard. The amendment also clarifies that in determining whether a sale is highly probable, the probability of shareholders’ approval, if required in the jurisdiction, shall be considered. In a sale plan involving loss of control of a subsidiary, all assets and liabilities of that subsidiary shall be classified as held for sale, regardless of whether the Group retains a non-controlling interest in its former subsidiary after the sale. Discontinued operations information shall also be presented. Non-current asset classified as held for distribution to owners shall be measured at the lower of its carrying amount and fair value less costs to distribute. There is no impact upon adoption of these amendments during the financial year.
Amendments to FRS 138 clarify that the intention of separating an intangible asset is irrelevant in determining the identifiability of the intangible asset. In a separate acquisition and acquisition as part of a business combination, the price paid by the Group reflects the expectations of the Group of an inflow of economic benefits, even if there is uncertainty about the timing or the amount of the inflow. Accordingly, the probability criterion is always considered to be satisfied for separately acquired intangible assets. The useful life of a reacquired right recognised as an intangible asset in a business combination shall be the remaining contractual period of the contract in which the right was granted, and do not include renewal periods. In the case of a reacquired right in a business combination, if the right is subsequently reissued to a third party, the related carrying amount shall be used in determining the gain or loss on reissue. There is no impact upon adoption of these amendments during the financial year.
Amendments to IC Interpretation 9 clarify that embedded derivatives in contracts acquired in a business
combination, combination of entities or business under common controls, or the formation of a joint venture are excluded from this Interpretation. There is no impact upon adoption of these amendments during the financial year.
(e) IC Interpretation 16 Hedges of a Net Investment in a Foreign Operation is mandatory for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2010.
This Interpretation applies to hedges undertaken on foreign currency risk arising from net investments in foreign operations and the Group wishes to qualify for hedge accounting in accordance with FRS 139.
Hedge accounting is applicable only to the foreign exchange differences arising between the functional currency of the foreign operation and the functional currency of any parent (immediate, intermediate or ultimate parent) of that foreign operation. An exposure to foreign currency risk arising from a net investment in a foreign operation may qualify for hedge accounting only once in the consolidated financial statements.

Hedging instruments designated in the hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation may be held by any companies within the Group, as long as the designation, documentation and effectiveness requirements of FRS 139 are met. There is no impact upon adoption of this Interpretation during the financial year.
(f) IC Interpretation 17 Distributions of Non-cash Assets to Owners is mandatory for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2010.
This Interpretation applies to non-reciprocal distributions of non-cash assets by the Group to its owners in their capacity as owners, as well as distributions that give owners a choice of receiving either non-cash assets or a cash alternative. This Interpretation also applies to distributions in which all owners of the same class of equity instruments are treated equally.
The liability to pay a dividend shall be recognised when the dividend is appropriately authorised and is no longer at the discretion of the Group. The liability shall be measured at the fair value of the assets to be distributed. If the Group gives its owners a choice of receiving either a non-cash asset or a cash alternative, the dividend payable shall be estimated by considering the fair value of both alternatives and the associated probability of the owners’ selection.
At the end of each reporting period, the carrying amount of the dividend payable shall be remeasured and any changes shall be recognised in equity. At the settlement date, any difference between the carrying amounts of the assets distributed and the carrying amount of the dividend payable shall be recognised in profit or loss. There is no impact upon adoption of this Interpretation during the financial year.
(g) Amendment to FRS 1 Limited Exemption from Comparative FRS 7 Disclosures for First-time Adopters is mandatory for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011.
This amendment permits a first-time adopter of FRSs to apply the exemption of not restating comparatives for the disclosures required in Amendments to FRS 7.
The Group does not expect any impact on the financial statements arising from the adoption of this amendment.
(h) Amendments to FRS 1 Additional Exemptions for First-time Adopters are mandatory for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011.
These amendments permit a first-time adopter of FRSs to apply the exemption of not restating the carrying amounts of oil and gas assets determined under previous GAAP.

(i) Amendments to FRS 7 Improving Disclosures about Financial Instruments are mandatory for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011. (cont’d)
By virtue of the exemption provided under paragraph 44G of FRS 7, the impact of applying these amendments on the financial statements upon first adoption of FRS 7 as required by paragraph 34(b) of FRS 108 are not disclosed.
(j) Amendments to FRS 2 Group Cash-settled Share-based Payment Transactions are mandatory for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011.
These amendments clarify the scope and the accounting for group cash-settled share-based payment transactions in the separate financial statements of the entity receiving the goods or services when that entity has no obligation to settle the share-based payment transaction.
Consequently, IC Interpretation 8 Scope of FRS 2 and IC Interpretation 11 have been superseded and withdrawn.
The Group does not expect any impact on the financial statements arising from the adoption of these amendments. The effects of adopting IC Interpretation 11 have been disclosed in Note 5.2(i) to the financial statements.
(k) IC Interpretation 4 Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease is mandatory for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011.
This Interpretation requires the determination of whether an arrangement is, or contains, a lease based on an assessment of whether the fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset and whether the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset. This assessment shall be made at the inception of the arrangement and subsequently reassessed if certain condition(s) in the Interpretation is met.
The Group does not expect any impact on the financial statements arising from the adoption of this Interpretation because there are no arrangements dependent on the use of specific assets in the Group.
(l) IC Interpretation 18 Transfers of Assets from Customers is mandatory for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011.
This Interpretation applies to agreements in which an entity receives from a customer an item of property, plant and equipment that must be used to either connect the customer to a network or to provide the customer with ongoing access to a supply of goods or services. The entity receiving the transferred item is required to assess whether the transferred item meets the definition of an asset set out in the Framework. The credit entry would be accounted for as revenue in accordance with FRS 118.
The Group does not expect any impact on the financial statements arising from the adoption of this Interpretation because there are no such arrangements in the Group.
(m) Improvements to FRSs (2010) are mandatory for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011.
Amendments to FRS 1 clarify that FRS 108 does not apply to changes in accounting policies made upon adoption of FRSs until after the first FRS financial statements have been presented. If changes in accounting policies or exemptions in this FRS are used, an explanation of such changes together with updated reconciliations shall be made in each interim financial report. Entities whose operations are subject to rate regulation are permitted the use of previously revalued amounts as deemed cost. The Group does not expect any impact on the financial statements arising from the adoption of these amendments.

Un-replaced and voluntarily replaced share-based payment transactions shall be measured using the market-based measurement method in accordance with FRS 2 at the acquisition date. The Group does not expect any impact on the consolidated financial statements arising from the adoption of these amendments.
Amendments to FRS 7 clarify that quantitative disclosures of risk concentrations are required if the disclosures made in other parts of the financial statements are not readily apparent. The disclosure on maximum exposure to credit risk is not required for financial instruments whose carrying amount best represents the maximum exposure to credit risk. The Group expects to improve the disclosures on maximum exposure to credit risk upon adoption of these amendments.
Amendments to FRS 101 clarify that a statement of changes in equity shall be presented as part of a complete set of financial statements. The Group does not expect any impact on the financial statements arising from the adoption of these amendments.
Amendments to FRS 121 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates clarify that the accounting treatment for cumulative foreign exchange differences in other comprehensive income for the disposal or partial disposal of a foreign operation shall be applied prospectively. The Group does not expect any impact on the financial statements arising from the adoption of these amendments.
Amendments to FRS 128 clarify that the accounting treatment for the cessation of significant influence over an associate shall be applied prospectively. The Group does not expect any impact on the consolidated financial statements arising from the adoption of these amendments.
Amendments to FRS 131 clarify that the accounting treatment for the cessation of joint control over an entity shall be applied prospectively. The Group does not expect any impact on the consolidated financial statements arising from the adoption of these amendments.
Amendments to FRS 132 clarify that contingent consideration from a business combination that occurred before the effective date of the revised FRS 3 of 1 July 2010 shall be accounted for prospectively.

(o) IC Interpretation 19 Extinguishing Financial Liabilities with Equity Instruments is mandatory for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2011.
This Interpretation applies to situations whereby equity instruments are issued to a creditor to extinguish all or part of a recognised financial liability. Such equity instruments shall be measured at fair value, and the difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability extinguished and the consideration paid shall be recognised in profit or loss.
The Group expects, upon adoption of this Interpretation, a change in the measurement of the equity instruments issued to creditors to extinguish all or part of recognised liabilities as per its proposed capitalisation or debts.
(p) IC Interpretation 15 Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate is mandatory for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2012.
This Interpretation applies to the accounting for revenue and associated expenses by entities undertaking construction or real estate directly or via subcontractors. Within a single agreement, the Group may contract to deliver goods or services in addition to the construction of real estate. Such an agreement shall therefore, be split into separately identifiable components.
An agreement for the construction of real estate shall be accounted for in accordance with FRS 111 if the buyer is able to specify the major structural elements of the design of the real estate before construction begins and/or specify major structural changes once construction is in progress. Accordingly, revenue shall be recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract.
An agreement for the construction of real estate in which buyers only have limited ability to influence the design of the real estate or to specify only minor variations to the basic designs is an agreement for the sale of goods in accordance with FRS 118. Accordingly, revenue shall be recognised by reference to the criteria in paragraph 14 of FRS 118 (e.g. transfer of significant risks and rewards, no continuing managerial involvement nor effective control, reliable measurement, etc.).
At the end of the reporting period, the Group recognises revenue and associated costs from the construction of real estate by reference to the stage of completion of the construction works. The Group is in the process of assessing the impact of implementing this Interpretation since the effects would only be observable for the financial year ending 31 May 2013.
(q) FRS 124 Related Party Disclosures and the consequential amendments to FRS 124 are mandatory for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2012.
This revised Standard simplifies the definition of a related party and eliminates certain inconsistencies within the superseded version. In addition to this, transactions and balances with government-related entities are broadly exempted from the disclosure requirements of the Standard.
The Group expects to reduce related party disclosures in respect of transactions and balances with government-related entities upon adoption of this Standard.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS31 MAY 2011 (cont’d)6. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES
6.1 Critical judgements made in applying accounting policies
The following are the judgements made by the management in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements.
(a) Classification between investment properties and property, plant and equipment
The Group has developed certain criteria based on FRS 140 Investment Property in making judgement whether a property qualifies as an investment property. Investment property is a property held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation or both.
The Group has temporarily sub-let a factory building on a long term leasehold land but has decided not to treat this property as an investment property because it is not the Group’s intention to hold this property in the long-term for capital appreciation or rental income. Accordingly, these properties are classified as property, plant and equipment.
(b) Operating lease commitments - the Group as lessor
The Group has entered into commercial property leases on its property. The Group has determined that it retains all the significant risks and rewards of ownership of these properties which are leased out as operating leases.
(c) Disposal group held for sale
Certain non-current assets and liabilities have been classified as disposal group held for sale (Note 17) as the management has committed to a plan to sell the assets and liabilities as at the end of the reporting period. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the Group expects that the sale of the assets and liabilities to be completed within the next twelve (12) months.
6.2 Key sources of estimation uncertainty
The following are key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.
(a) Impairment of goodwill on consolidation
The Group determines whether goodwill on consolidation is impaired at least on an annual basis. This requires an estimation of the value-in-use of the CGU to which goodwill is allocated. Estimating a value-in-use amount requires management to make an estimate of the expected future cash flows and also to choose a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows. The recoverable amount of goodwill allocated to land held for property development and property development costs is determined by using the fair value less cost to sell (i.e. estimated by a professional valuer). Further details are disclosed in Note 11 to the financial statements.
(b) Depreciation of property, plant and equipment
The cost of property, plant and equipment is depreciated on a straight-line basis to write off the cost of each asset to its residual value over the asset’s useful life. Management estimates the useful lives of these assets as disclosed in Note 4.3 to the financial statements. Changes in the expected level of usage and technological developments could impact the economic useful lives and the residual values of these assets, therefore future depreciation charges could be revised.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS31 MAY 2011 (cont’d)6. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES (cont’d)
6.2 Key sources of estimation uncertainty (cont’d)
(c) Construction contracts/Property development
The Group recognises revenue and expenses from construction contracts/property development in profit or loss by using the stage of completion method. The stage of completion is determined by the proportion that contract/property development costs incurred for work performed to date bear to the estimated total contract costs.
Significant judgement is required in determining the stage of completion, the extent of the contract/
property development costs incurred, the estimated total contract/property development revenue and costs, as well as the recoverability of the development projects. In making the judgement, the Group evaluates based on past experience and by relying on the work of specialists.
(d) Deferred tax assets
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all unused tax losses and unabsorbed capital allowances to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the losses and capital allowances can be utilised. Significant management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and level of future taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies.
(e) Income taxes
Judgement is required in determining the capital allowances and deductibility of certain expenses when estimating the provision for income taxes. There are transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred tax in the period in which the outcome is known.
(f) Impairment of receivables
The Group makes impairment of receivables based on an assessment of the recoverability of receivables. Impairment is applied to receivables where events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. The management specifically analyses historical bad debt, customer concentration, customer creditworthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment terms when making a judgement to evaluate the adequacy of impairment of receivables. Where expectations differ from the original estimates, the differences will impact the carrying amount of receivables.
(g) Fair values of borrowings
The fair values of borrowings are estimated by discounting future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rates available to the Group for similar financial instruments. It is assumed that the effective interest rates approximate the current market interest rates available to the Group based on its size and its business risk.
(h) Impairment of land held for property development and property development costs
The Group reviews the carrying amount of its land held for property development and property development costs to determine whether there is any indication that these assets have suffered an impairment loss in accordance with relevant accounting policies. This is determined by using the fair value less selling costs (i.e. estimated by a professional valuer).

(i) Going concern assumption
As at 31 May 2011, the Group’s and the Company’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by RM58,573,478 and RM48,155,160 respectively. However, the Directors are of the opinion that the preparation of the financial statements of the Group and of the Company on a going concern basis is appropriate due to the following:-
(i) Included in the current liabilities of the Group are retention sum of RM18,891,444 not repayable within the next twelve (12) months, other payables of RM25,471,495 under the Proposed Revised Capitalisation of Debts and deposit of RM14,175,000 received for the Proposed Disposal of U-Wood as disclosed in Note 26 and Note 37 to the financial statements.
(ii) The Company has reached an advance stage of its Regularisation Plan as disclosed in Note 37(A) to the financial statements.
(iii) The Group has secured the Concession Agreement for development of Phase 2 Universiti Teknologi MARA, Puncak Alam Campus as disclosed in Note 37(B) to the financial statements. The Concession Agreement is expected to provide the Group with sustainable earnings going forwards and to generate the requisite cash flows to meet their liabilities as and when they fall due.

An impairment loss on goodwill amounting to RM1,787,561 relating to a CGU, property development, has been recognised during the financial year due to inactive operation of the CGU. The recoverable amount of the CGU is determined based on a value-in-use calculation as well as a fair value less estimated cost to sell (i.e. estimated by a professional valuer), whichever is higher.
TRIplc BERHAD (242896-A)a n n u a l r e p o r t 2 0 1 1 95
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS31 MAY 2011 (cont’d)11. GOODWILL ON CONSOLIDATION (cont’d) Value-in-use of CGUs is determined by discounting the future cash flows generated from the continuing use of
the CGUs and is based on the following assumptions:
(i) Pre-tax cash flow projections covering a five (5) year period; and
(ii) Pre-tax discount rate of 8.7% is used in determining the recoverable amount of the CGU which is the Group’s weighted average cost of capital.
With regard to the assessment of value-in-use of CGU, the management believes that no reasonably possible change in any of the above key assumptions would cause the carrying values of the units to materially exceed their recoverable amounts.

The Company implemented an Employees’ Share Options Scheme on 7 January 2003 (“ESOS 2003/2008”). The ESOS 2003/2008 is governed by the Bye-Laws which were approved by the shareholders on 28 November 2002 (“ESOS Bye-Laws”). The ESOS 2003/2008 is for a period of five (5) years expiring on 6 January 2008, subject however to renewal(s) for a period(s) of up to a maximum of five (5) years in aggregate. On 4 December 2007, in pursuant to Bye-Law 20.2 of the Company’s ESOS Bye-Laws and upon the recommendation of the ESOS Committee, the Board extended the ESOS 2003/2008 for an additional five (5) years (“ESOS 2003/2013”) commencing 7 January 2008 up to and including 6 January 2013 as the same terms and conditions as set out in the said Bye-Laws.
(a) The salient features of the ESOS 2003/2013 are as follows:
(i) The ESOS 2003/2013 is set up for the participation in ordinary shares of the Company only. The maximum number of new ordinary shares which may be made available under the ESOS 2003/2013 shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the total issued and paid-up share capital of the Company at the point in time when an offer is made.
(ii) Eligible employees are confirmed full time local employees or Executive Directors of the Group who have been in service within the Group for a continuous period of at least one (1) year including contract staff whose contract is at least five (5) years. During the financial year, the ESOS committee has resolved that only contract staff who have served the Group continuously for five (5) years shall be eligible for ESOS allocation. This includes staff who qualify for ESOS allocation previously to continue to participate in the ESOS 2003/2013 beyond their retirement age of 55 years if they continue with their employment as a contract staff under a fresh contract of employment without any breach in service.
(iii) The ESOS 2003/2013 is administrated by the ESOS Committee which comprises the senior management and/or Board Members appointed by the Board of Directors in accordance with the provisions of the ESOS Bye-Laws.
(iv) The options granted under the ESOS 2003/2013 may be exercised by the grantee by notice in writing to the Company during the period commencing from the date of offer and before the expiry of the ESOS 2003/2013 on 6 January 2013.
(v) The exercise price of the options at which the eligible employees are entitled to subscribe for the ordinary shares of RM1.00 each in the Company under the ESOS 2003/2013 is the weighted average market price of the shares of the Company as quoted in the Daily Official List issued by Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad for the five (5) market days immediately preceding the respective dates of offer subject to a discount of not more than ten percent (10%), or at the par value of the ordinary shares of the Company at RM1.00 each, whichever is higher.
(vi) The eligible employee to whom the options have been granted has no right to participate, by virtue of the options, in any share issue of any other company within the Group.

(b) Fair value of the share options granted (cont’d)
The fair values of the share options were arrived at based on the following assumptions:
Grant on 31 May 2011
Grant on 30 November 2010
Share price (RM) 0.08 0.08
Exercise price (RM) 1.00 1.00

Volatility of share return (%) 90.00 90.00
The expected life of the share options is based on historical data and is not necessarily indicative of exercise patterns that may occur. The expected volatility reflects the assumption that the historical volatility is indicative of future trends, which may also not necessarily be the actual outcome. No other features of the option grant were incorporated into the measurement of fair value.
(c) The holders of ordinary shares are entitled to receive dividends as and when declared by the Company and are entitled to one vote per ordinary share at meetings of the Company. All ordinary shares rank pari passu with regard to the Company’s residual assets.

33. OPERATING SEGMENTS
(i) Business segments
TRIplc Berhad and its subsidiaries are principally engaged in property construction and property development. The Group’s property construction and property development activities in Malaysia are mainly undertaken by TRIplc Ventures Sdn. Bhd., TRIplc Resources Sdn. Bhd. Suasa Integrasi (M) Sdn. Bhd. and Insa Alliance Sdn. Bhd., wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company.
The Group has arrived at five (5) reportable segments that are organised and managed separately according
to the nature of products and services, specific expertise and technologies requirements, which requires different business and marketing strategies. The reportable segments are summarised as follows:
Property development : Development of residential and commercial propertiesProperty construction : Construction of commercial propertiesProperty investment : Letting of property and related assets Investment holding : Investment holdingOthers : Project management and dormant
The Group’s chief operating decision maker monitors the operating results of its business units separately for the purpose of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment.
The accounting policies of operating segments are same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Group evaluates performance on the basis of profit or loss from operations before tax excluding non-recurring losses such as goodwill impairment.
Inter-segment revenue is priced along the same lines as sales to external customers and is eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. These policies have been applied consistently throughout the current and previous financial years.
Segment assets comprise mainly property, plant and equipment, development properties, land held for property development, receivables and operating cash, but exclude tax recoverable.
Segment liabilities comprise operating liabilities and exclude tax liabilities.

(c) Methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value
The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities are determined as follows:
(i) Financial instruments that are not carried at fair value and whose carrying amounts are a reasonable approximation of fair value:
The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities, such as trade and other receivables, trade and other payables and borrowings, are reasonable approximation of fair value, due to their short-term nature.
The carrying amounts of the current portion of borrowings are reasonable approximations of fair values due to the insignificant impact of discounting.
(ii) Term loans, redeemable secured loan stock and obligations under finance lease:
The fair value of these financial instruments are estimated by discounting expected future cash flows at market incremental lending rate for similar types of lending, borrowing or leasing arrangements at the end of the reporting period.

The Group’s overall financial risk management objectives are to ensure that the Group creates value and maximises returns to its shareholders as well as ensuring that adequate financial resources are available for the development of the Group’s businesses whilst managing its financial risks. It is, and has been throughout the financial year under review, the Group’s policies that no trading in financial instruments shall be undertaken.
The Group operates within an established risk management framework and clearly defined guidelines that are regularly reviewed by the Board of Directors and does not trade in derivative financial instruments. Financial risk management is carried out through risk review programmes, internal control systems and adherence to the Group financial risk management policies. The Group is exposed mainly to liquidity risk, interest rate risk and credit risk. Information on the management of the related exposures is detailed below.
(i) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of the Group’s and the Company’s financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates.
The Group’s primary interest rate risk relates to its interest bearing assets and liabilities. The investments in financial assets are not held for speculative purpose but have been mostly placed in fixed deposits which yield better returns than the conventional savings. The Group manages its interest rate exposures on its debts by maintaining fixed rate borrowings. In respect of interest-bearing financial liabilities, the following table indicates their weighted average effective interest rates at the end of the reporting period and the periods in which they reprice or mature, whichever is earlier:

Sensitivity analysis for interest rate risk
Group
As at 31 May 2011, if interest rates at the date had been 50 basis points lower with all other variables held constant, post-tax profit for the year would have been RM63,332 lower and vice versa, arising mainly as a result of lower or higher net interest income/expense on deposits with licensed banks and borrowings. The assumed movement in basis points for interest rate sensitivity analysis is based on the currently observable market environment.

The assumed movement in basis points for interest rate sensitivity analysis is based on the currently observable market environment.
