10 THINGS TO DO TO SAVE WATER

Page 11: EASTW: Annual Report 2011 EN

• Woulditbebettertousetheshowerfaucet? Using the bath tub wastes 110-200 liters of water each time, compared to 30 liters when using a shower faucet.

• Woulditbebettertousecups? Did you know? Using a cup to hold water while brushing one’s teeth requires only 0.5 to 1 liter of water, but letting water continuously flow without a cup would waste 20-30 liters of water.

• Shaving Using a towel to wipe during a shave saves water and paper. Cleaning can be done after the shave.

• UseoftheFlush Each flush uses 8-12 liters of water. To save water, separate installation of urinals and toilets is recommended.

• DoingtheDishes Clearing leftovers and scraping off dirty residues before doing the dishes is better than directly washing it by letting water flow from the faucet, at a rate of 9 liters per minute.

• CleaningVegetable,Fruits,andVariousTools Using a container to hold the required amount of water is better than allowing the water to run freely during the cleaning process.

• Laundry Allowing water to run continuously during laundry wastes water at a rate of 9 liters per minute

• FrequentInspectionofFaucets Water that leaks from the faucet results in unnecessary waste. If repairs are not made, the leaked water should be saved in a container for further use.

• SprinklersCanHelp Using sprinklers to water plants instead of a hose can save water.

• WaterSavedfromLaundryCanbeReused Used water froming laundry con be reused for water plants, which is a way of saving water.

Message from Chairman

Mr. Chanchai SunthonmatChairman

In 2011, the Company committed todevelop its business based on social responsibility. In this connection, the Company adjusted the scope of strategies for operation to be more challenging in order to support future business expansion and more focus on the sufficient provision of water resources and the development of new water resources. Furthermore, the Company, together with its efficient alliances, had considered the opportunity to expand the business in environment, waste water management, environmental management and alternate energy areas.

Moreover, the Company improved the efficiency of organizational structure and group’s management from policy level in order that the directions and goals of the group of companies are under single business supervision and that the management and personnel development systems are mutually developed to support the group’s business expansion. To achieve the utmost benefit of the group’s strategic business management, the Company adopted a new Enterprise Resources Planning to reduce operational procedures and costs, leading to the Company’s high-quality work system and readiness for global competition. In the meantime, the Company has maintained the increasing operating results consistently which led to the announcement of the interim dividend payment of 2011 fiscal year.

This achievement was resulted from the adoption of investment and finance strategies for fund procurement, the increase of fund procurement’s capacity

with low financial cost and the expenditure control. The last year outstanding operating result has well proved the Company’s potentiality.

The Company has committed to emphasize on continuous sustainable growth of the business with environmental, social and community cares. In 2011, the Company continued to run social and environmental projects from previous years and launched additional projects beneficial to the communities to help such communities to be able to permanently grow by themselves; for example, providing a training on repair, maintenance and management of community tap water etc. In 2011, many provinces in Thailand were severely affected from the flood crisis. The Company was well aware about the difficulties of the victims and all related parties and allocated some of CSR budgets to assist and relieve such difficulties; for example, donating bottled drinking water and providing drinking water mobile service and free installation of drinking water machines for many affected community areas. Additionally, the Company provided its water pumping machines to pump the water from Klong Keon pumping station at Bangpakong River and turn into the estuary at the bridge of motorway in assistance to government sectors and moved its water pumping machines to be installed at Phraya Wisut and Nang Hong pumping stations in Samut Prakarn Province to help the Royal Irrigation Department draining water. All these distributions reflect the Company’s commitment of simultaneous

growth among the Company’s business, environment, society and communities for their coexistence in a long and sustainable term.

The Company’s Board of Directors was well aware that the successes of the Company were achieved by all parties’ cooperation, especially that of executives and staff of the Company who dedicated their full effort and played important roles in driving the organization to achieve a higher goal and move forward to establish global company in the future.

On behalf of the Company’s Board of Directors, I would like to thank the shareholders, all stakeholders, including all related government and private sectors for continuous reliability and support to the Company’s operation and business. The Company would like to assure you that the Company will commit to the vision and mission by operating the business on the basis of the Good Corporate Governance Policy with transparency and verifiable manner to achieve the utmost benefit to the shareholders, stakeholders and all other related parties in order to add value to the business, society and environment for their shared sustainable growth.

Industry and Competition

Although the overall economic expansion in 2011 softened from the previous year since the production sector was affected from the disaster in Japan and Thailand flooding crisis, which was severe and expanding to cover Central area of the nation, causing damages to industrial sector and the shrink in exports, consumptions and private investments during the last quarter of the year, the demand of raw water from both industrial and consumer sectors in Eastern area continued to grow.

In the meantime, the severe flood crisis had impacted on industrial production sector, especially manufactures in Industrial Estate area in Ayudhya and Pathumthani provinces, which are automobile, electronic and electrical appliance production sources, leading foreign companies in Thailand, including Japanese companies, which were considering to move their production base as a result of Tsunami incident, to be more interested in the Eastern area of the nation, i.e. Chonburi and Rayong.

As for raw water competition, the overall competition was considered not high. There were few enterprisers and many obstructions for accessing into the market by new investors because the construction of pipelines for raw water needed high investment and approvals by the government sectors as water resources are limited.

Currently, the Company’s total water for sale in 2011 was at 261.55 Million Cubic Meters with 6.57% growth, compared to that in 2010. The increase was mainly due to the increase in industrial activities from the petrochemical industry in Rayong area, especially MapTa Phut area such as MapTa Phut Industrial Estate, Eastern

Eastern Water Resources Development and Management Pcl. has realized the risk factors which may arise and affect the Company’s business operation. The Company then considered and determined the guideline to manage possible risks. Previously, the Company analyzed on the important risk factors which may affect the management of water resources and performed the review and adjustment of organizational structure and risk management procedure in various aspects, continuously in order to enhance risk management system to be equivalent to international standards and to be ready for the risk management under COSO guideline.

Risk Management Committee plays an important role in determining policies, reviewing the sufficiency of policies and supervising important corporate risks. The aim of the risk management is to manage various risks to be under the determined

scope, to operate the business with appropriate returns and to monitor the work performance in accordance with risk management plans, including consideration toward risk management operating results quarterly to continuously control the risks. In 2011, there were significant implication on risks, as summarized below:

1. Risk from demand - supply managementThe Company was affected from the

risk from demand – supply management

due to 2 main risk factors as follows:

1.1 Sensibility of demand forecast which is difficult to be predicted arising out of global economic fluctuation, especially European debt and domestic flood crisis which has caused the reduction of production capacity and consumers’ water usage volume. In this regard, the Company has enforced a measure to handle with such crisis by closely focusing on

Risk Factors

CRM activities and improving the efficiency of water distribution system to support consumers’ needs in various forms at prompt

1.2 Climate fluctuation and drought Uncertainty and difficulty on forecasting of rainy season and drought have significantly affected the customers’ water usage, especially those who own raw water resources. The Company developed measures on contract management, c l e a r determination of minimum guarantee for customers and regular meeting with customers to inquire about their production plans or upcoming projects which enable the Company to participate in planning and reviewing of usage volume with the customers quarterly.

2. Risk from adjustment of raw water costThe Company’s raw water cost was affected by 3 main risk factors as follows:

Page 35: EASTW: Annual Report 2011 EN

Eastern Water Resources Development and Management PLC. | 33

2.1 Adjustment of the Provincial Electricity Authority’s Ft which is the main factor driving the increase of sale operating cost. In this regard, the Company has put in place the energy saving plan and implemented the plan consistently. In addition, the Company has prepared the water pumping plan monthly to monitor its work performance closely.

2.2 Turning water to reserve as raw water for drought period To get ready for the drought period during February – May of each year, the Company needs to turn water from the water resources far away from usual ones for storage. Such water turning directly affects electricity cost. In this regard, the Company had put in place annual drought surveillance and prevention plan to reduce the risk from climate fluctuation and launched War Room activity to closely discuss with customers and report water situation.

2.3 Raw water quality and pollution around water resources With environment and pollution in Eastern area, water quality in the water resources may be affected. The effect

also increases due to the dense communities living around main reservoirs, soil pollution and air pollution from industries. As the result, from the beginning of the Company’s business until 2011, the Company has cooperated with communities in monitoring and protecting the environment around the upstream of raw water resources.

3. Risk from business operation Risk from internal operation was affected by 2 main risk factors as follows:

3.1 Risk from electrical disruption The Company operates to distribute water to customers 24 hours a day. Reserved water resource is then a necessary thing in an emergency period such as when light goes off or a repair or pipeline joint is needed. Due to the existence of the Company’s agreement with the Provincial Electricity Authority concerning the halt of electricity distribution, the water reserve from the reserved ponds is necessary to continuously distribute raw water to its customers when there is an emergency. At present, the Company’s water resources reserves for

the emergency has a capacity of 116,300 cubic meters which provides the reserved water of approximately 6.30 hours. However, the Company has an operational plan for any emergency to provide continuous water distribution. Moreover, the Company has a plan to increase its reserved water volume with the construction of an additional reserved pond with the capacity of 220,000 cubic meters in Map Kha area which will provide the reserved water of 24 hours, as many emergency arises.

3.2 Risk from damages to water pipeline system There were possible problems of corrosion or other constructions of infrastructure along the pipeline area which might affect the Company’s water pipeline system to break or leak. However, the Company had set up preventive maintenance plan and continuous examination and maintenance of water pipeline system as planned. In addition, the Company had risk insurance with the insurance company which would be responsible for any damages with the pipeline system caused by any incidents, covering every pipeline as well as the

Page 36: EASTW: Annual Report 2011 EN

34 | Annual Report 2011

Company’s asset insurance and third party insurance, including damages from the operation halt, to help the Company to continuously distribute water with efficiency.

4. Risk from conflicts with communityThe usage of water resources may affect the Company’s image. The Company had allocated budget for quality of life and environmental development by creating relationship with the communities in the areas as well as providing accurate understanding and consistently providing local communities’ development project encouragement to reduce conflicts and increase good attitude toward the Company. The activities consisted of canal digging, drinking water mobile service, young leader camp for conservation of water resources and environment with scholarship, mangrove forestation for environmental conservation, as well as supporting activities for quality of life and environmental development for communities such as temples, schools, government agencies, and public charities.

5. Risk from policy of the government and related government agenciesThe instability of the policy of the government agencies relating to the Company’s operation may affect the Company such as the delay of certificate issuance from related government agencies, clarity of water pipeline leasing fee of Nong Pla Lai – Nong Kho. However, the Company still received good cooperation from the related government agencies. Moreover, the establishment and business operation of the Company followed the cabinet’s resolution to promote the industrial investment and tourism in the area of the Southern Seaboard.

In addition to the main corporate risks supervised by Risk Management Committee, the Company has provided a risk management handbook and risk operational plan to its work divisions for their adherence in keeping the risks to be at an acceptable level. The risks are reviewed quarterly by taking into account all events which may arise, not only the risks that are capable to

cause damages but other surrounded factors which identify the likelihoods of the risks of the Company under various circumstances which may change from time to time.

1.1 Comprehensive income statement

1.1.1 Revenue In 2011, raw water sale volume achieved 261.51 million cubic meters (MCM), increasing by 16.67 MCM or an increase of 6.81% YoY mainly from customers in Nong Pla Lai - MapTa Phut area, who consumed the largest portion of 86.17 MCM, increasing by 13.96 MCM or 16.20% YoY due to the increase in

industrial activities from the petrochemical industry in Rayong area. Tap water sales volume was 62.67 MCM, up 3.76 MCM or 6.38% YoY with an increasing sale proportion in Chonburi area, starting in April 2010. Therefore, revenues from raw water and tap water increased accordingly. Revenues from rental and services included rental and services revenue from East Water

building with 100% occupancy rate currently and the rental rate would gradually increase for the due contracts. However, the service income from subsidiaries reduced from the expiration of water management contracts and some projects were postponed to 2012 as a result of Thailand flooding in late 2011.

(Unit: million Bath)1.1.2 Cost of Sales

The table above shows the structure of cost of sales as a percentage of total revenues in 2011 compared to those of the year 2010. Cost of Goods Sold to total revenue decreased from 46% in 2010 to 42% in 2011. The main reasons are as follows:

1) Electrical expenses (representing 36 % of the total cost) reduced from more-than-expected water supply in the reservoir. This can reduce the electrical power required to pump water from the Bangplakong River to Bang-pra reservoir.

2) Raw water cost (representing 19% of the total cost) decreased from lower water supply from private company in Chonburi area due to more-than-expected water supply in the reservoirs.

3) Depreciation (representing 28% of total cost) reduced from the extended

useful lives of assets related to water pumping machines, in accordance with new accounting standards. The extension of useful lives based on actual functions resulted in that a depreciation expense decreased by 48.3 million baht.

1.1.3 SG&A ExpensesIn 2011, the Company and its subsidiaries’ SG&A to total revenue was around 12%. During the year, the Company had spent approximately 17.45 million baht for a feasibility study on new business, waste water and environment business and the corporate public relation expense on the event “109th anniversary of the Royal Irrigation Department” was around 10 million baht. The Company has focused on the Corporate Social Responsibility-CSR and held the budget for these activities, including Community Development, Water and Environment, Youth and Sports

activities, and Religion and Culture approximately 1 % of total revenue. The activities for the year 2011 are as follows:

• Exhibitions celebrating “The 84th Birthday anniversary of His Majesty the King, a philosopher of water” project • The drinking water mobile car

serving the water for public of approximately 97,770 liters • Developing 89 wastewater

treatments for small schools in the serviced area • Supporting The Royal Rain Making

Project, for the Bureau of Royal Rainmaking and Agricultural Aviation• The “Student in Free Enterprise (SIFE)” • “East Water Young Leader

Program” to encourage young people to promote conserving water, with the 1,200 students and 320 schools participating in this program

I have audited the accompanying consolidated and company statements of financial position as at 31 December 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated and company statements of comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended of Eastern Water Resources Development and Management Public Company Limited and its subsidiaries and of Eastern Water Resources Development and Management Public Company Limited, respectively. The Company’s management is responsible for the correctness and completeness of information in these financial statements. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audits.

I conducted my audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. I believe that my audits provide a reasonable basis for my opinion.

In my opinion, the consolidated and company financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated and company financial position as at 31 December 2011 and 2010, and the consolidated and company results of operations, and cash flows for the years then ended of Eastern Water Resources Development and Management Public Company Limited and its subsidiaries and of Eastern Water Resources Development and Management Public Company Limited, respectively, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Without qualifying my opinion on the aforementioned financial statements, I draw attention to Note 38.5 to the financial statements regarding the compensation of the Company’s pipeline connecting project. The Company is paying the compensation at a preliminary rate because the government agency is considering a deal for the Company to rent/manage the connecting projects and the compensation rate that may change.

Page 72: EASTW: Annual Report 2011 EN

70 | Annual Report 2011

The new accounting standards, new financial reporting standards, new interpretation and amendments to accounting standards have impact on the financial statements as follows:

TAS 1 (Revised 2009), the revised standard will prohibit the presentation of items of income and expenses in the statement of changes in equity, requiring ‘non-owner changes in equity’ to be presented separately from owner changes in equity. Entities can choose to present the statement of comprehensive income in one statement (the statement of comprehensive income) or two statements (the statement of income and statement of comprehensive income). Where entities restate or reclassify comparative information, they will be required to present a restated statement of financial position as at the beginning comparative period in addition to the current requirement to present statement of financial position at the end of the current period and comparative period. However, for the financial statements which period beginning on or after 1 January 2011 and are the first period apply this standard, an entity can choose to present statement of financial position only two periods without the statement of financial position as at the beginning comparative period. The Group has adopted this standard from 1 January 2011. The Group chooses to present a single statement of comprehensive income.

TAS 12 deals with taxes on income, comprising current tax and deferred tax. Current tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or be paid to the taxation authorities, using tax rates and tax law that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred taxes are measured by based on the temporary difference between the tax base of an asset or liability and its carrying amount in the financial statements and using the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax law that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. This accounting standard is mandatory for the accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013 but the Group early adopted this standard from 1 January 2011 retrospectively. The effect of adoption this accounting standard is mentioned in Note 2.2 (b)

TAS 38 (Revised 2009) Intangible Assets TAS 40 (Revised 2009) Investment PropertyTFRS 2 Share-based PaymentTFRS 3 (Revised 2009) Business CombinationsTFRS 5 (Revised 2009) Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations TFRS 6 Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral ResourcesTFRIC 15 Agreements for the Construction of Real EstateTSIC 31 Revenue - Barter Transactions Involving Advertising Services

Effective for the periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013 TAS 12 Income taxesTAS 20 (Revised 2009) Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government AssistanceTAS 21 (Revised 2009) The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange RatesTSIC 10 Government Assistance - No Specific Relation to Operating ActivitiesTSIC 21 Income Taxes - Recovery of Revalued Non-Depreciable Assets TSIC 25 Income Taxes - Changes in the Tax Status of an Entity or its Shareholders

Page 73: EASTW: Annual Report 2011 EN

Eastern Water Resources Development and Management PLC. | 71

TAS 16 (Revised 2009), the revised standard requires the entity to include in cost of PPE, an initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located, when the entity has obligation to do so. For an item of property, plant and equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the item, an entity is required to depreciate the item separately. The revised standard also requires an entity to review useful life, residual value and depreciation method at least at each financial year-end. The Group has adopted this standard since 1 January 2011 which had impacted on component accounting of significant items and useful life reviewing. The Group applied prospective adjustment which resulted to a decrease in depreciation expenses for the year ended 31 December 2011 of Baht 48.3 million and Baht 50.7 million in consolidated financial statements and company financial statements respectively. The net profit was changed by the same amount.

TAS 19 deal with accounting for employee benefit. The standard classifies employee benefit into 4 categories: a) short-term employee benefits b) post-employment benefits including defined contribution plan and defined benefit plan c) other long-term employee benefits and d) termination benefits. The standard requires the entity to measure the defined benefit plan and other long-term employee benefits by using the Projected Unit Credit method (PUC). An entity can choose to recognise any actuarial gain or loss for defined benefit plan either in other comprehensive income or profit and loss. Actuarial gain or loss for other long-term employee benefit shall be recognised in profit and loss. The Group has adopted this standard since 1 January 2011 by recognised employee benefit obligations against retained earnings at that date and chosen to recognise actuarial gain or loss for defined benefit plan in profit and loss by straight line method over average remaining service years of employees in the plan. The effect of adoption this accounting standard is mentioned in Note 2.2 (b).

TAS 23 (Revised 2009), the revised standard requires an entity to capitalise borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset as part of the cost of that asset. The option of immediately expensing those borrowing costs will be removed. The Group has adopted this standard since 1 January 2011 but it is not expected to have any impact on the Group’s financial statement because the Group already apply capitalised model.

TAS 24 (Revised 2009), the definition of ‘related party’ has been expanded to include parties with joint control over the entity, joint venture in which the entity is a venturer and post-employment benefit plan for the benefit of employees of an entity. The Group has adopted the revised standard from 1 January 2011 which may impact only to the disclosure of related parties information in the notes to the financial statements.

TAS 40 (Revised 2009), the standard has specific presentation and measurement requirements for investment property. The entity has to present an investment property separately in the statement of financial position. The entity can choose to measure it using either the cost model or the fair value model. Under the fair value model, any changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss. The Group has adopted this accounting standard since 1 January 2011. The Group applied the cost model for the measurement and reclassification of investment property from property, plant and equipment category and discloses fair value in the note to financial statement. The effect of adoption this accounting standard is mentioned in Note 2.2 (b).

b) The effect of adoption new accounting standard and amendments to accounting standards

The effects of the adoption of the above standards to the statement of financial position and the statement of comprehensive income previously presented are as following:

2.3 Group Accounting - Investment in subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are all entities (including special purpose entities) over which the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one-half of the voting rights. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Group controls another entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases.

The Group uses the acquisition method of accounting to account for business combinations. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair value of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred and the equity interests issued by the Group. The consideration transferred includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. On an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, the Group recognises any non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the acquiree’s net assets.

Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost less impairment. Cost is adjusted to reflect changes in consideration arising from contingent consideration amendments. Cost also includes direct attributable costs of investment.

The excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the Group’s share of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If this is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired in the case of a bargain purchase, the difference is recognised directly in profit or loss.

Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains or loss on transactions between Group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group. A list of the Group’s principal subsidiaries is set out in Note 12.

2.4 Foreign currency translation

Items included in the financial statements of each entity in the Group are measured using Thai Baht. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Thai Baht.

Foreign currency transactions are translated into Thai Baht using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated to Thai Baht at the exchange rate prevailing at the statement of financial position date. Gains and losses resulting from the settlement of foreign currency transactions, and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, are recognised in the profit or loss.

2.5 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks and fixed deposit with are held to maturity three months or less, and other short-term highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less from the date of acquisition.

2.6 Trade accounts receivable/water loss treatment service income receivable

Trade accounts receivable and water loss treatment service income receivable are carried at the original invoice amount and subsequently measured at the remaining amount less any allowance for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding amounts at the year end. The amount of the allowance is the difference between the carrying amount of the receivable and the amount expected to be collectible. Bad debts are written off during the year in which they are identified and recognised in profit or loss within administrative expense. The Group record revenue that has been recognised as revenue but not yet billed to the customers under “Unbilled receivables” and “Unbilled water loss treatment service income receivable” which have been included in trade accounts receivable and water loss treatment service income receivable in the statement of financial position.

2.7 Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realisable value. Cost was previously determined by the first-in, first-out method and was changed to moving average basis from 1 September 2011. The comparative financial statements have not been restated because the impact of this change is not material. The cost of purchase comprises both the purchase price and costs directly attributable to the acquisition of the inventory, such as import duties and transportation charges, less all attributable discounts. Net realisable value is the estimate of the selling price in the ordinary course of business, less applicable variable selling expenses. Allowance is made, where necessary, for obsolete, slow moving and defective inventories.

2.8 Investments Investments other than investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures are classified into the following four categories: (1) trading investments; (2) held-to-maturity investments; (3) available-for-sale investments; and (4) general investments. The classification is dependent on the purpose for which the investments were acquired. Management determines the appropriate classification of its investments at the time of the purchase and re-evaluates such designation on a regular basis.

(1) Investments that are acquired principally for the purpose of generating a profit from short-term fluctuations in price are classified as trading investments and included in current assets.

(2) Investments with fixed maturity that the management has the intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity and are included in non-current assets, except for maturities within 12 months from the statement of financial position date which are classified as current assets.

(3) Investments intended to be held for an indefinite period of time, which may be sold in response to liquidity needs or changes in interest rates, are classified as available-for-sale; and are included in non- current assets unless management has expressed the intention of holding the investment for less than 12 months from the statement of financial position date or unless they will need to be sold to raise operating capital, in which case they are included in current assets.

(4) Investments in non-marketable equity securities are classified as general investments.

All categories of investment are initially recognised at cost, which is equal to the fair value of consideration paid plus transaction cost. Currently, the Group has investments with fixed maturity and investments in non-marketable equity. Held-to-maturity investments are carried at amortised cost using the effective yield method less impairment loss.

Investment in non-marketable equity security held as other investment is determined at cost less allowance for impairment. A test for impairment is carried out when there is a factor indicating that an investment might be impaired. If the carrying value of the investment is higher than its recoverable amount, impairment loss is charged to the income statement.

On disposal of an investment, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount is charged or credited to the profit or loss.

2.9 Non-current assets held-for-sale

Non-current assets are classified as assets held-for-sale when their carrying amount is to be recovered principally through a sale transaction and a sale is considered highly probable. They are stated at the lower of the carrying amount and fair value less cost to sell if their carrying amount is to be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use.

2.10 Investment property

Property that is held for long-term rental yields or for capital appreciation or both, and that is not occupied by the companies in the consolidated Group, is classified as investment property. Investment property also includes property that is being constructed or developed for future use as investment property.

Investment property is measured initially at its cost, including related transaction costs and borrowing costs. Borrowing costs are incurred for the purpose of acquiring, constructing or producing a qualifying investment

Page 77: EASTW: Annual Report 2011 EN

Eastern Water Resources Development and Management PLC. | 75

property are capitalised as part of its cost. Borrowing costs are capitalised while acquisition or construction is actively underway and cease once the asset is substantially complete, or suspended if the development of the asset is suspended.

After initial recognition, investment property is carried at cost less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.

Land is not depreciated. Depreciation on other investment properties is calculated using the straight line method to allocate their cost to their residual values over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

Building 20 and 35 years Building improvement 10 years

Subsequent expenditure is capitalised to the asset’s carrying amount only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance costs are expensed when incurred. When part of an investment property is replaced, the carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised.

2.11 Property, plant and equipment

Land is stated at cost less allowance for impairment (if any). Plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and allowance for impairment (if any) Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.

Land is not depreciated. Depreciation on other assets is calculated using the straight line method to allocate their cost to their residual values over their estimated useful lives.

Since 1 January 2011, the Group has depreciated the significant component of each item separately and changed accounting estimate by reviewing useful lives of property, plant and equipment as the following:

Before 2011 Since 1 January 2011

Pumping plants 33 years 20, 35 yearsBuilding 10, 20, 25 years 10, 20, 35 years

Leasehold and building improvements 5, 10 years 5, 10 years but not more than leased term

Machinery and equipment - Water pool, Pipeline and related equipment 10, 20 years 40 years - Water pump 10 years 30 years - SCADA, Fiber Optic 5, 10 years 5, 15 years - Other machineries and equipment 5, 10 years 5, 10 yearsOffice equipment 3, 5 years 3, 5 yearsVehicles 5 years 5 years

Page 78: EASTW: Annual Report 2011 EN

76 | Annual Report 2011

The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.

The asset’s carrying amount is written-down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.

Gains or losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised within ‘Other (losses)/gains – net’ in profit or loss.

Interest costs on borrowings to finance the construction of property, plant and equipment are capitalised as part of cost of the asset, during the period of time required to complete and prepare the property for its intended use. The borrowing costs include interest on short-term and long-term borrowings, related taxes and amortisation of discounts or premiums relating to borrowings. All other borrowing costs are recorded as expense in profit and loss.

2.12 Assets under concession contracts

Assets under concession contracts are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and allowance for impairment (if any). Depreciation of assets under concession contracts has been included in profit and loss which has been computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful life but not exceed the concession period of 15, 20 and 25 years,

2.13 Deferred concession rights acquisition costs

Concession rights acquisition costs consist of expenses incurred directly in relation to obtaining the concession contracts from the Provincial Waterworks Authority. Deferred concession rights acquisition costs are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and allowance for impairment (if any). Amortisation of deferred concession rights acquisition costs, which has been computed using the straight-line method over the concession periods of 27 and 30 years, has been included in profit and loss.

2.14 Intangible assets

2.14.1 Rights to operate the businesses under concession

Right to operate the subsidiaries’ businesses under concession awarded to the subsidiaries by the government agency or entity over a limited a concession period. Rights are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and allowance for impairment (if any) and are amortised using the straight- line method over a period of 27 years, being the concession period awarded to the subsidiaries to carry out their business operation. The carrying amounts of intangible assets are written down when there is an impairment.

2.14.2 Computer software

Expenditure on acquired computer software is capitalised on the basis of the costs incurred to acquire and amortised using the straight-line method over its estimated useful lives of 10 years.

2.15 Impairment of assets

Assets that have an indefinite useful life, are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment. Assets that are subject to amortisation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds its recoverable amount which is the higher of an asset’s

Page 79: EASTW: Annual Report 2011 EN

Eastern Water Resources Development and Management PLC. | 77

fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest level for which there are separately identifiable cash flows. Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date.

2.16 Current and deferred income taxes The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of reporting period in the countries where the company’s subsidiaries and associates operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.

Deferred income tax is recognised, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising from differences between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the end of the reporting period and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled.

Deferred income tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when the deferred income tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the taxable entity or different taxable entities where there is an intention to settle the balances on a net basis.

2.17 Borrowings Borrowings are recognised initially at the fair value of proceeds received, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at amortised cost; any difference between proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in profit and loss over the period of the borrowings. Interest expenses is recognised as expenses on an accrual basis by using interest rate specified in the contracts.

Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the end of reporting date.

2.18 Leases

Where a Group company is the lessee

Leases not transferring a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are charged to the statement of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

Leases of property, plant or equipment which substantially transfer all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalised at the inception of the lease at the lower of the fair value of the leased property or the present value of the minimum lease payments. Each lease payment is allocated to the principal and to the finance charges so as to achieve a constant rate on the finance balance outstanding. The outstanding rental obligations, net of finance charges, are included in other long-term

Page 80: EASTW: Annual Report 2011 EN

78 | Annual Report 2011

payables. The interest element of the finance cost is charged to the statement of income over the lease period so as to achieve a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. The property, plant or equipment acquired under finance leases is depreciated over the shorter period of the useful life of the asset or the lease term.

Where a Group company is the lessor

Assets leased out under operating leases are included in property, plant and equipment and investment property in the statement of financial position. They are depreciated over their expected useful lives on a basis consistent with other similar property, plant and equipment owned by the Group. Rental income (net of any incentives given to lessees) is recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term. 2.19 Employee Benefits The Group has post-employment benefits both defined benefit and defined contribution plans. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the Group pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. The Group has no legal or constructive obligations to pay further contributions if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods. A defined benefit plan is a pension plan that is not a defined contribution plan. Typically defined benefit plans define an amount of pension benefit that an employee will receive on retirement, usually dependent on one or more factors such as age, years of service and compensation.

•Defined contribution plan Provident fund

The Group operates a provident fund, being a defined contribution plan, the assets for which are held in a separate trust fund. The provident fund is funded by payments from employees and by the Group. The Group has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid. The contributions are recognised as employee benefit expense when they are due. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments is available.

•Definedbenefitplan Retirement benefit

Under Labour Laws applicable in Thailand and Group’s employment policy, the severance pay will be at the rate according to salary and number of years of service which will happen in the future. The liability recognised in the statement of financial position in respect of defined benefit pension plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets, together with adjustments for unrecognised past-service costs. The defined benefit obligation is calculated by independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method. The present value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows using government bond interest rate that are denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid, and that have terms to maturity approximating to the terms of the related liability.

Gain and loss from actuarial estimation for employee benefit recognised in profit and loss by using straight line method over average of remaining service years of employees in the plan.

2.20 Provisions Provisions, excluding the provisions for employee benefits, are recognised when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and the amount has been reliably estimated. Where the Group expects a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognised as a

Page 81: EASTW: Annual Report 2011 EN

Eastern Water Resources Development and Management PLC. | 79

separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.

2.21 Revenue recognition Revenue comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods and service after eliminating sales within the Group. The revenue recognition policy of each type of revenue, as follows:

(a) Sales

Sales of goods are recognised as revenue when significant risks and reward of ownership of goods have passed to the buyer. Sales are the invoiced value, excluding value added tax, of goods supplied after deducting goods returns and discounts.

(b) Rental and service income

Rental income is recognised as revenue over the rental period at the rate stipulated in the contracts.

Service income is recognised as revenue by the amount excluding value added tax when services havebeen rendered with reference to the stage of completion.

(c) Revenue from pipeline installation project and water loss reduction project

Revenue from water pipeline installation project and water loss reduction project are recognised as revenue under the percentage of completion method. The expected loss on unprofitable contracts is recognised as soon as such loss can be foreseen.

(d) Interest and dividend income

Interest income is recognised on an accrual basis. Dividend income is recognised when rights to receive dividends are established.

(e) Other income

Other income is recognised on an accrual basis.

2.22 Dividends distribution

Dividend distribution to the Company’s shareholders is recorded in the Group’s financial statements in the period in which they are approved by the Company’s shareholders or the Board of Directors in case of interim dividend.

2.23 Segment reporting

Segment information is presented by business segment of the Group’s operations.

3. Critical accounting estimates, judgments and assumptions Estimates, judgments and assumptions are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Significant accounting judgments and estimates are as follows:

3.1 Value in use Value in use is the present value of the future cash flows expected to be derived from assets, discounted by discount rates, determined by the management of the Group. The cash flow projections based on financial

Page 82: EASTW: Annual Report 2011 EN

80 | Annual Report 2011

forecasts for the remaining useful lives of assets or concession periods and approved by the management of the Group are calculated based on estimated growth rates, which do not exceed their capacity and customers’ usage demand. Key assumptions used for value-in-use calculations are growth rates, expense to revenue ratios and gross margin rate. Management determines such rates based on their past performance, their expectations for market development, and business plan. The discount rates used are pre-tax and reflect specific risks relating to the business after considered the remaining useful lives. The value derived from the afore-mentioned method may vary due to changes in revenue structure, cost structure, discount rate, industrial conditions and economic conditions.

3.2 Leases In determining whether a lease is to be classified as an operating lease or finance lease, the management is required to use judgment regarding whether significant risk and rewards of ownership of the leased asset has been transferred, taking into consideration terms and conditions of the arrangement.

3.3 Allowance for doubtful accounts In determining an allowance for doubtful accounts, the management needs to make judgment and estimates based upon, among other things, past collection history, aging profile of outstanding debts and the prevailing economic condition.

3.4 Property plant and equipment/Depreciation In determining depreciation of plant and equipment, the management is required to make estimates of the useful lives and salvage values of the plant and equipment and to review estimate useful lives and salvage values when there are any changes or at least at the end of each reporting period.

In addition, the management is required to review property, plant and equipment for impairment on a periodical basis and record impairment losses in the period when it is determined that their recoverable amount is lower than the carrying cost. This requires judgments regarding forecast of future revenues and expenses relating to the assets subject to the review.

3.5 Employee Benefits - defined benefit plan

The present value of defined benefit obligations depends on a number of factors that are determined on an actuarial basis using a number of assumptions. The assumptions used in determining the net cost (income) for obligations include inflation rate, future salary increases and the discount rate. Any changes in these assumptions will have an impact on the carrying amount of defined benefit obligations. The Group determines the appropriate discount rate at the end of each year. This is the interest rate that should be used to determine the present value of estimated future cash outflows expected to be required to settle the defined benefit obligations. In determining the appropriate discount rate, the Group considers the appropriated rate by using government bond interest rate that are denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid, and that have terms to maturity approximating to the terms of the related liability.

The key assumptions for defined benefit obligations are based in part on current market conditions is disclosed in Note 26.

3.6 Provision and contingent liabilities

The Group has contingent liabilities as a regarding of litigation. The Group’s management has used judgment to assess of the results of the litigation and believes that no significant loss will result apart from provision for liabilities which already recorded at each reporting date.

Page 83: EASTW: Annual Report 2011 EN

Eastern Water Resources Development and Management PLC. | 81

In addition, the Group has an uncertainty regarding to a deal for the Company to rent/manage the 2 pipeline connecting projects which disclosed the information in Note 38.5. Based on the Group’s management judgement, the projected compensation was recorded in financial statements using the best estimation of compensation rate computing from the current information.

3.7 Fair value of financial instruments

In determining the fair value of financial instruments that are not actively traded and for which quoted market prices are not readily available, the management exercise judgment, using a variety of valuation techniques and models. The input to these models is taken from observable markets, and includes consideration of liquidity, correlation and longer-term volatility of financial instruments. The critical fair value estimation of financial instruments is long-term loans from financial institutions. The Group estimates the fair value by calculating the present value of future principal and interest payment using the market interest rate for discounting

4. Capital risk management The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.

5. Segment information The principal business operations of the Group are supply of raw water, produce and supply of tap water, waterworks management, and engineering services. These business operations are conducted only in one geographical area, which is Thailand.

The business segment information for the years ended31 December 2011 and 2010 are summarised as follows:

32. Sales - Project assets

By resolution of the Cabinet on 2 August 2005, it was resolved to approve projects to solve urgently a drought crisis in the Eastern region, which included a project to install a water distribution pipeline connecting the Pra-Sae reservoir to the Klong Yai reservoir in the Rayong Province (“the pipeline connecting project”), the Company was then assigned to construct such project under a budget of Baht 1,680 million, separated as below:

a) The budget was to be supported by the government of Baht 1,008 million, with the Company assigned to enter into contracts for pipeline connecting and annex building construction and contracts to procure and install water pumping machines and electricity system, with total contract values of Baht 919 million. The Company entered into such contracts on behalf of the government under the resolution as mentioned above. The Company will accept the assets and make payment to the sub-contractors when the assets are inspected for acceptance and received payment from the Royal Irrigation Department (“the RID”).

b) For the remaining budget of Baht 672 million, the Company was to make advance payments and the RID is to reimburse the Company by gradual offsetting of the charges for raw water that the Company will purchase from the RID each year. The Company had made advance payments totalling approximately Baht 646.5 million (comprising pipeline amounting to Baht 642 million and related fixtures amounting to Baht 4.5 million). These are presented as “Project assets”.

Thereafter, the RID issued a letter to the Company, notifying the intention to purchase the assets constructed under the pipeline connecting project by special method. In addition, on 15 January 2010, the Company and the RID signed an agreement to sell and purchase assets constructed under the pipeline connecting project. The contract value amounts to Baht 1,677 million (value added tax included).

On 2 April 2010, the Company delivered project assets to the RID and fully received payment on 8 April 2010. The Company recognised sale-project assets as revenues amounting to Baht 1,567 million and cost of sale-project assets amounting to Baht 1,507 million.

36. Earnings per share

There was the announcement of the Royal Decree Regarding the Reduction of Corporate Income Tax Rate in the Government Gazette on 21 December 2011. The Group has, consequently, re-measured the relevant deferred tax balance by using the tax rate of 23% of net profit for the 2012 fiscal year ending on or after 31 December 2012, and to further reduce their corporate income tax to 20% of net profit in subsequent fiscal years beginning on or after 1 January 2013 onward.

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit attributable to shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year.

41. Financial instruments

41.1 Financial risk factors The Group’s financial instruments principally comprise cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, trade accounts payable, tempolary and long-term loans and some items in other current liabilities. The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, including the credit risk and interest rates risk. The Group’s overall risk management programme focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the Group. The financial risk management is discussed below.

41.1.1 Credit risk The Group are exposed to credit risk primarily with respect to, trade accounts receivable, and other receivable. The Group manage the risk by adopting appropriate credit control policies and procedures and therefore does not expect to incur material financial losses. Although the Group may expose to concentration risk due to their having a few large customers, those customers are in government sector. The management believes that such risk is therefore low. The maximum exposure to credit risk is limited to the carrying amounts of trade accounts receivables, and other receivable as stated in the statement of financial position.

Page 124: EASTW: Annual Report 2011 EN

122 | Annual Report 2011

41.1.2 Interest rate risk The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk relate primarily to their deposits with financial institutions and short-term and long-term loans. However, since most of the Group’s financial assets and liabilities bear floating interest rates or fixed interest rates which are close to the current market rate, the interest rate risk is expected to be minimal.
