TEHO Development recently entered into a non-binding letter of intent to acquire the entire issued and paid-up share capital of ECG Property Services Pte. Ltd. (“ECG”). ECG and its wholly-owned subsidiaries are principally engaged in the businesses of real estate, consultancy, management, real estate agencies, valuation services and real estate activities such as business and management consultancy services. In this regard, the Board will convene an extraordinary general meeting (“EGM”) in due course to seek shareholders’ approval to, inter alia, expand the geographical coverage and scope of the Group’s property business as well as acquire the entire issued and paid-up share capital of ECG.

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of TEHO International Inc Ltd. (the “Company”)
is committed to maintaining a high standard of corporate governance within the
Company and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) to ensure greater transparency and to
protect the interests of the Company’s shareholders.
The Company has put in place various policies and practices that will safeguard
the interests of shareholders and enhance shareholders’ value as part of its effort
to maintain high standards of corporate governance. This report outlines the main
corporate governance practices and procedures adopted by the Company with
specific reference to the Code of Corporate Governance 2012 (the “Code”).
Statement of Compliance
The Board confirms that for the financial year ended 30 June 2014 (“FY2014”), the
Company has generally adhered to the principles and guidelines set out in the Code
save as otherwise explained below.
BOARD MATTERS
The Board’s Conduct of Affairs
Principle 1: Every company should be headed by an effective board to lead and
control the company. The board is collectively responsible for the long-term success
of the company. The board works with management to achieve this objective and
management remains accountable to the board.
The Board currently comprises two executive directors and three independent
directors, who have the right core competencies and diversity of experience to enable
them, in their collective wisdom, to contribute effectively. The independent directors
make up more than half of the Board and there is a strong independent element on the
Board.
The Board is entrusted with the responsibility for the overall management of the
business and corporate affairs of the Group. Matters which specifically require the
Board’s decision or approval are those involving:
• corporate strategy and business plans;
• investment and divestment proposals;
• funding decisions of the Group;
• nominations of directors for appointment to the Board and appointment of key
personnel;
• announcement of half-year and full-year results, the annual report and accounts;
• material acquisitions and disposal of assets;
• all matters of strategic importance; and
• corporate governance.
To assist the Board in the execution of the Board’s responsibilities, certain functions of
the Board have been delegated to the following committees:
• Audit Committee (the “AC”);
• Nominating Committee (the “NC”); and
• Remuneration Committee (the “RC”).
Each of these committees is being chaired by an independent director and operates
within clearly defined terms of reference and functional procedures which are reviewed
on a regular basis. These committees will provide further safeguards to prevent an
uneven concentration of power, authority and decision-making in a single individual.
To get a better understanding of the Group’s business, the Company adopts a policy
whereby directors are encouraged to request for further explanations, briefings or
informal discussion on the Group’s operations or business with the executive directors
and the management.
Ad hoc meetings involving the Board and Management are held regularly to review
important matters such as major acquisition and divestment and related funding
requirements. In between Board meetings, other important matters are also being
circulated and put for the Board’s approval by way of circulating resolutions in writing.
The Company’s Articles of Association provide for meetings of directors to be held by
means of telephone conference or other methods of simultaneous communication by
electronic or other means.

All directors are expected, in the course of carrying out their duties, to act in good faith

Newly appointed directors will be given briefings by management on the business activities
and strategic direction of the Group. There are also orientation program to familiarise them

All directors are encouraged to keep themselves updated on changes to the financial,
legal and regulatory requirements or framework and the business environment through
reading relevant literature and attending appropriate seminars and courses conducted

Singapore Institute of Directors.
Board Composition and Guidance
Principle 2: There should be a strong and independent element on the board,
which is able to exercise objective judgment on corporate affairs independently, in
particular, from management and 10% shareholders. No individual or small group of
individuals should be allowed to dominate the board’s decision making.
The Board currently comprises the following directors:
Executive Directors
Mr Lim See Hoe Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
(“CEO”)
Ms Lim Siew Cheng Chief Operating Officer (“COO”)
Non-Executive Directors
Mr Kwah Thiam Hock Lead Independent Director and Chairman of AC
Mr Terrance Tan Kong Hwa(1) Independent Director and Chairman of NC
Ms Joanne Khoo Su Nee Independent Director and Chairman of RC
Note:
(1) Mr Terrance Tan Kong Hwa will be retiring as director at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting
(“AGM”) and will not be seeking re-election.
The non-executive directors constructively participate in developing and setting
proposals on business strategies for the Company and review the performance of the
management.
The independence of each independent director is reviewed annually by the NC. The
NC adopts the definition in the Code as to what constitutes an independent director in
its review to ensure that the Board consists of persons who, together, will provide core
competencies necessary to meet the Company’s objectives. In this regard, the NC is of
the view that Mr Kwah Thiam Hock, Mr Terrance Tan Kong Hwa and Ms Joanne Khoo
Su Nee are independent.
In view that more than half of the Board is made up of independent directors, the NC
is satisfied that the Board has a strong independent element to ensure that objective
judgment is exercised on corporate affairs.

The Board through the NC has examined its size and composition and is of the view that
it is an appropriate size for effective decision-making, taking into account the scope and
nature of the operations of the Group. The NC is of the view that no individual or small
group of individuals dominates the Board’s decision-making process.
There is adequate relevant competence on the part of the directors, who, as a group,
carry specialist backgrounds in accounting, finance, business and management and
strategic planning.
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
Principle 3: There should be a clear division of responsibilities between the
leadership of the board and the executives responsible for managing the company’s
business. No one individual should represent a considerable concentration of power.
There is a clear division of responsibilities between the Chairman who is also the CEO
and the other executive director who is the COO, which ensures there is a balance of
power and authority at the top of the Group. Mr Lim See Hoe, who is the Chairman
and CEO, leads the Board and is responsible for the overall corporate and strategic
development, business direction, expansion plan and management of the Group. Ms
Lim Siew Cheng, who is the executive director and COO, is responsible for the Group’s
sales administration, operations and strategic planning.
Mr Lim See Hoe in assuming the responsibility of the Chairman of the Board is
responsible for scheduling Board meetings as and when required, setting the
agenda for the Board meetings and ensuring the quality, quantity and timeliness of
the flow of information between the management, the Board and the shareholders
so as to enhance working relations among the management, executive and non-
executive directors, and to encourage constructive communication with shareholders
respectively. He is also responsible for ensuring compliance with the Company’s
guidelines on corporate governance.
As Mr Lim See Hoe and Ms Lim Siew Cheng are siblings, the Board has appointed
Mr Kwah Thiam Hock as the lead independent director to co-ordinate and lead the
independent directors to provide non-executive perspective, to avail himself to address
any shareholders’ concerns and to act as a counter-balance in the decision-making
process and contribute a balanced viewpoint to the Board. Furthermore, the Board
is of the view that with the establishment of the three Board committees, there are
adequate safeguards in place to prevent an uneven concentration of power, authority
and decision-making in a single individual.
Board Membership
Principle 4: There should be a formal and transparent process for the appointment
and re-appointment of directors to the board.
The NC comprises entirely independent directors, namely Mr Terrance Tan Kong Hwa,
Mr Kwah Thiam Hock and Ms Joanne Khoo Su Nee. The Chairman of the NC is Mr
Terrance Tan Kong Hwa. The NC is guided by written terms of reference that describe
the responsibilities of its members.
The principal functions of the NC are as follows:
(a) to review and recommend the nomination or re-nomination of the directors
having regard to the director’s contribution and performance;
(b) to determine on an annual basis whether or not a director is independent; and
(c) to assess the performance of the Board and contribution of each director to the
effectiveness of the Board.
In the event that a vacancy on the Board arises, the NC may identify suitable
candidates for appointment as new director through the business network of the
Board. The NC will assess suitable candidates for appointment to the Board based on
the requisite qualification, expertise and experience, and recommend the most suitable
candidate to the Board for appointment as director.
Under the Articles of Association of the Company, all directors are required to submit
themselves for re-nomination and re-election every three years. Directors who retire are
eligible to offer themselves for re-election.
The NC assesses and recommends to the Board whether retiring directors are suitable
for re-election. The NC, in considering the re-appointment of a director, evaluates such
director’s contributions in terms of experience, business perspective and attendance at
meetings of the Board and/or Board committees and pro-activeness of participation in
meetings. Each member of the NC shall abstain from recommending his own re-election.
Three directors, namely Mr Lim See Hoe, Mr Terrance Tan Kong Hwa and Ms Joanne
Khoo Su Nee are due for retirement at the forthcoming AGM. Mr Lim See Hoe and Mr
Terrance Tan Kong Hwa are retiring pursuant to Article 107 while Ms Joanne Khoo Su
Nee is retiring pursuant to Article 117 of the Company’s Articles of Association.

Mr Terrance Tan Kong Hwa has informed the Board that in support of the Board
renewal plan, he will not be seeking re-election at the forthcoming AGM. Upon his
cessation as independent director of the Company, Mr Tan will ipso facto cease to
be Chairman of the NC and member of the AC and RC. The Company will use its
best endeavours to fill the vacancy following the retirement of Mr Tan as soon as
practicable and will make an announcement in due course.
The NC has reviewed and recommended the re-election of Mr Lim See Hoe and Ms
Joanne Khoo Su Nee. The Board has accepted the NC’s recommendations and Mr Lim
See Hoe and Ms Joanne Khoo Su Nee will be offering themselves for re-election at the
forthcoming AGM.
The NC considers that the multiple board representations held presently by some
directors do not impede their respective performance in carrying out their duties towards
the Company. As such, the Board does not propose to set the maximum number of
listed company board representations which directors may hold until such need arises.
Key information regarding the directors is set out below:

Board Performance
Principle 5: There should be a formal annual assessment of the effectiveness of the
board as a whole and its board committees and the contribution by each director to
the effectiveness of the board.
The NC decides how the Board’s performance is to be evaluated and proposes
objective performance criteria, subject to the Board’s approval, which address how
the directors have enhanced long-term shareholders’ value. The Board has also
implemented a process to be carried out by the NC for assessing the effectiveness
of the Board as a whole and the Board committees and for assessing the contribution
by each individual director to the effectiveness of the Board. Assessment checklists
which include evaluation factors such as Board composition and structure, conduct
of meetings, corporate strategy and planning, risk management and internal control,
measuring and monitoring performance, training and recruitment, compensation,
financial reporting and communicating with shareholders, are disseminated to each
director for completion and the assessment results are discussed at the NC meeting.
Each member of the NC shall abstain from voting on any resolution in respect of the
assessment of his performance or re-nomination as director.
Access to Information
Principle 6: In order to fulfil their responsibilities, directors should be provided with
complete, adequate and timely information prior to board meetings and on an on-
going basis so as to enable them to make informed decisions to discharge their
duties and responsibilities.
The Company recognises the importance of unlimited and unhindered flow of
information for the Board to discharge its duties effectively. The management and the
executive directors furnish the Board, and where appropriate, each director regularly
with information about the Group as well as the relevant background information or
explanatory information relating to the business to be discussed at Board meetings.
The directors are also provided with the contact details of the management and
company secretaries to facilitate separate and independent access.

Either one of the company secretaries attends Board and Board committee meetings.
Together with the management, the company secretaries are responsible for ensuring
that appropriate procedures are followed and that the requirements of the Companies
Act, Cap. 50, and the provisions in Section B: Rules of Catalist of the SGX-ST Listing
Manual (“Catalist Rules”) are complied with. Directors have separate and independent
access to the company secretaries. The appointment and the removal of the company
secretaries is a matter for the Board as a whole. Each director has the right to
seek independent legal and other professional advice, at the Company’s expense,
concerning any aspect of the Group’s operations or undertakings in order to fulfil his
duties and responsibilities as director.
REMUNERATION MATTERS
Procedures for Developing Remuneration Policies
Principle 7: There should be a formal and transparent procedure for developing
policy on executive remuneration and for fixing the remuneration packages of
individual directors. No director should be involved in deciding his own remuneration.
The RC comprises entirely independent directors, namely Ms Joanne Khoo Su Nee,
Mr Kwah Thiam Hock and Mr Terrance Tan Kong Hwa. The Chairman of the RC is
Ms Joanne Khoo Su Nee. The RC has written terms of reference that describe the
responsibilities of its members.
The RC was formed to recommend to the Board a framework of remuneration for
the directors and key executives, and to determine specific remuneration packages
for each executive director. All aspects of remuneration, including but not limited to
directors’ fees, salaries, allowances, bonuses and other benefits-in-kind are covered
by the RC. In addition, the RC administers the TEHO Performance Share Plan (the
“TEHO PSP”).
Each member of the RC shall abstain from voting on any resolutions in respect of his
remuneration package.
The RC has the authority to seek any external professional advice, at the expense of the
Company, on matters relating to remuneration of directors as and when the need arises.
The RC will continue to review the Company’s obligations arising in the event of
termination of the executive directors and executive officers’ contracts of service, to
ensure that such contracts of service contain fair and reasonable termination clauses
which are not overly generous.
Level and Mix of Remuneration
Principle 8: The level and structure of remuneration should be aligned with the long-
term interest and risk policies of the company, and should be appropriate to attract,
retain and motivate (a) the directors to provide good stewardship of the company,
and (b) key management personnel to successfully manage the company. However,
companies should avoid paying more than is necessary for this purpose.
The Company has a remuneration policy for the CEO and COO, which comprises a
fixed component and a variable component. The fixed and variable components are in
the form of a base salary and a variable bonus respectively, which takes into account
the performance of the Company and their performances. The performance-related
elements of remuneration are designed to align the executive directors’ interest with
those of shareholders and link rewards to corporate and individual performance.
In setting remuneration packages, the Company also takes into consideration the
remuneration packages and employment conditions in comparable positions and
within the comparable industry and companies.
Mr Lim See Hoe and Ms Lim Siew Cheng being CEO and COO respectively are
remunerated based on their service agreements with the Company. These service
agreements are automatically renewed on a year-to-year basis upon expiry on
such terms and conditions as the parties may agree. The agreements provided for
termination by either party upon giving not less than six months’ notice in writing.
The independent directors do not have service agreements with the Company. They
are paid fixed directors’ fees, which are determined by the Board appropriate to the
level of their contributions, taking into account factors such as the effort and time
spent and the responsibilities of each independent director. The directors’ fees are
subject to approval by shareholders at each AGM. The independent directors do not
receive any other remuneration from the Company.

The review of the remuneration of the key executives takes into consideration the
performance and contributions of the staff to the Group and gives due regard to
the financial and business performance of the Group. The Group seeks to offer a
competitive level of remuneration to attract, motivate and retain senior management of
the required competency to run the Group successfully.
The Company has adopted a long-term employee incentive scheme known as TEHO
PSP that was approved by shareholders at the Extraordinary General Meeting held on
25 November 2011, to align itself with and embrace local trends and best practices
in employee compensation and retention. The TEHO PSP aims to promote higher
performance goals, recognise exceptional achievement and retain talents within the
Group. The TEHO PSP is administrated by the RC. Please refer to the “Directors’
Report” section of this annual report for more information of the TEHO PSP.
Disclosure on Remuneration
Principle 9: Every company should provide clear disclosure of its remuneration
policies, level and mix of remuneration, and the procedure for setting remuneration,
in the company’s annual report. It should provide disclosure in relation to
its remuneration policies to enable investors to understand the link between
remuneration paid to directors and key management personnel, and performance.
The Board supports and is keenly aware of the need for transparency. However, the
Board is of the view that full disclosure of the remuneration of directors and executive
officers, either on an individual basis or in aggregate, is not in the best interests of the
Company, having taken into consideration the sensitive nature of the matter and the
competitive business environment the Group operates in.
A breakdown, showing the level and mix of each director’s remuneration for FY2014 is

The RC has reviewed and approved the remuneration packages of the executive
directors and executive officers, having regard to their contributions as well as the
financial performance and commercial needs of the Group and has ensured that
the executive directors and executive officers are adequately but not excessively
remunerated.
ACCOUNTABILITY AND AUDIT
Accountability
Principle 10: The board should present a balanced and understandable assessment
of the company’s performance, position and prospects.
For the financial performance reporting via the SGXNET to SGX-ST, and the annual
report to the shareholders, the Board has a responsibility to present a balanced
and understandable assessment of the Group’s performance, financial position and
prospects to the public, including interim and other price sensitive public reports and
reports to regulators (if required).
The Board ensures that the management maintains a sound system of internal controls
to safeguard the shareholders’ investments and the Group’s assets.
The management will provide all members of the Board with management accounts of
the Group’s performance, with explanatory details on its operations. Board papers are
given prior to any Board meeting to facilitate effective discussion and decision-making.
The Board also announces the Group’s half-year results and performance review via
the SGXNET for the benefit of its shareholders.
Risk Management and Internal Controls
Principle 11: The board is responsible for the governance of risk. The board should
ensure that management maintains a sound system of risk management and internal
controls to safeguard shareholders’ interests and the company’s assets, and should
determine the nature and extent of the significant risks which the board is willing to
take in achieving its strategic objectives.
The Company does not have a Risk Management Committee. However, the executive
directors and management regularly review the Group’s business and operational
activities to identify areas of significant business risks as well as appropriate measures
to control and mitigate these risks. Management reviews significant control policies
and procedures and highlights the significant matters to the Board and the AC.
Furthermore, on AC’s recommendation, the Board had appointed the Internal Auditors
(as defined below) to conduct a Risk Management Assessment of the Group.
The Board is responsible for the overall internal control framework and is fully aware
of the need to put in place a system of internal controls within the Group to safeguard
shareholders’ interests and the Group’s assets, and to manage risks.
On 22 July 2009, the Board, under the AC’s recommendation, selected and appointed
Ernst & Young Advisory Pte. Ltd. (“Internal Auditors”) to review, recommend, carry out
subsequent follow-up review on the Group’s internal control systems, and expand
and enhance on its policies and procedures manual in the following major areas of
operations of the Group under two phases:

fixed assets)
(b) Inventory management
(c) Financial close reporting
Phase 2:
(a) Sales, receivables and collections
(b) Treasury and cash management
(c) Human resources and payroll
The first full cycle internal controls review and follow-up reviews of the major areas
of operations with direct consultations, presentations and reporting made to the AC
were completed in March 2012. On the recommendations of the AC, the Internal
Auditors continued with its second full cycle internal controls review that spanned
over the financial year ended 30 June 2013 and to continue with the third full cycle
internal controls review in FY2014. The AC had also engaged the Internal Auditors
to undertake an initial Enterprise Risk Management Review of the Group, which
commenced in October 2013, to enable the Board and management to understand the
inherent industry, financial, operational, compliance and information technology risks of
the Group.
The shareholders had at the Extraordinary General Meeting held on 6 May 2014
approved the following:
(a) diversification of core business of the Group to include property development
and property investment, which involves activities such as property-related
investments, holding of investments in property related assets, and trading in
and the development of property for sale, more particularly described in in the
circular dated 21 April 2014; and
(b) acquisition of the entire issued and paid-up share capital of TIEC Holdings Pte.
Ltd. which is in the business of real estate development.
The acquisition of TIEC Holdings Pte. Ltd. was completed on 26 May 2014.
In the audit of the Company’s financial statements for FY2014, RSM Chio Lim LLP
(“External Auditors”), the external auditors of the Company, informed the Board that
it did not notice any significant deficiency or major lapses in the internal controls that
would warrant highlighting to the management, AC and the Board.
On the recommendation of the AC, the chief financial officer takes on the additional
duties of a compliance officer and to co-ordinate and oversee the works of the
Company’s professional service providers.
The Board has received assurance from the CEO and the chief financial officer (a) that
the financial records have been properly maintained and the financial statements for
FY2014 give a true and fair view of the Group’s operations and finances; and (b) that
the Group has put in place and will continue to maintain a reasonably adequate and
effective system of risk management and internal controls.
Based on the internal controls established and maintained by the Group, work
performed by the appointed Internal Auditors and External Auditors, and reviews
performed by the management and the Board, the Board with the concurrence of the
AC is of the opinion that the risk management and internal control systems maintained
by the Group, addressing the financial, operational, compliance and information
technology risks of the Group are adequate and effective as at 30 June 2014. The
Board and the AC note that all internal control systems contain inherent limitations and
no system of internal controls can provide absolute assurance against the occurrence
of material errors, poor judgement in decision-making, human error, fraud or other
irregularities.
Audit Committee
Principle 12: The board should establish an audit committee with written terms of
reference which clearly set out its authority and duties.
The AC comprises entirely independent directors, namely Mr Kwah Thiam Hock, Mr
Terrance Tan Kong Hwa and Ms Joanne Khoo Su Nee. The Chairman of the AC is
Mr Kwah Thiam Hock. The AC has written terms of reference clearly setting out its
authority and duties.
All members of the AC have accounting and related financial management expertise.
The Board is of the view that the AC has the necessary experience and expertise
required to discharge its duties.
The AC has explicit authority to investigate any matter within its terms of reference, full
access to and co-operation by management and full discretion to invite any director
or executive officer to attend its meetings, and reasonable resources to enable it to
discharge its functions properly.

The AC shall meet periodically to perform, inter alia, the following functions:
(a) to review with the external auditors the audit plan, their evaluation of the
system of internal controls, the audit report, the management letter and the
management’s response;
(b) to review with the internal auditors the internal audit plan and their evaluation of
the adequacy of the internal controls and accounting system before submission
of the results of such review to the Board for approval prior to the incorporation
of such results in the annual report;
(c) to review the financial statements before submission to the Board for approval,
focusing in particular, on changes in accounting policies and practices, major
risk areas, significant adjustments resulting from the audit, the going concern
statement, compliance with accounting standards as well as compliance with
any stock exchange and statutory/regulatory requirements;
(d) to review the internal controls and procedures and ensure co-ordination
between the external auditors and the management, reviewing the assistance
given by the management to the auditors, and discuss problems and concerns,
if any, arising from the interim and final audits, and any matters which the
auditors may wish to discuss (in the absence of the management where
necessary);
(e) to review and discuss with external and internal auditors (if any), any suspected
fraud or irregularity, or suspected infringement of any relevant laws, rules or
regulations, which has or is likely to have a material impact on the Group’s
operating results or financial position, and the management’s response;
(f) to review the Group’s key financial risk areas (including but not limited to, the
Group’s cash management policies and cash position, collection of debts,
hedging policies and transactions, speculative trading policies and positions
and off-balance sheet items);
(g) to consider the appointment or re-appointment of the external auditors and
matters relating to resignation or dismissal of the auditors;
(h) to review transactions falling within the scope of Chapter 9 of the Catalist Rules;
(i) to review any potential conflicts of interest;
(j) to undertake such other reviews and projects as may be requested by the
Board and report to the Board its findings from time to time on matters arising
and requiring the attention of the AC; and
(k) generally to undertake such other functions and duties as may be required by
statute or the Catalist Rules, and by such amendments made thereto from time
to time.
Apart from the above functions, the AC is given the task to commission and review the
findings of investigations into matters where there is suspected fraud or irregularity,
or failure of internal controls or infringement of any Singapore law, rule or regulation,
which has or is likely to have a material impact on the Company’s operating results or
financial position.
The Company engages RSM Chio Lim LLP to audit all significant Singapore
incorporated subsidiaries for the purposes of the consolidated financial statements of
the Company and its subsidiaries. The AC is of the view that the External Auditors is
a suitable auditing firm that meets the Group’s audit obligations, size and complexity,
and having also considered the External Auditors’ professional standing, the reputation
of its audit engagement partner and the adequacy of the resources and experience of
its supervisory and auditing staff assigned for the audit. The External Auditors is also
an auditing firm registered with the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority.
The Company’s other Singapore incorporated subsidiaries and foreign incorporated
subsidiaries are being audited by separate auditing firms, as disclosed in Note 17 to
the financial statements in this annual report which have been cleared by the External
Auditors. The Board and AC have reviewed and are satisfied that the appointment of
different auditors would not compromise the standard and effectiveness of the audit of
the Company. Accordingly, Rules 712 and 716 of the Catalist Rules are complied with.
The External Auditors have served as the auditors of the Company for seven
consecutive audits since the financial year ended 30 June 2008. The directors are of
the view that a change of auditors would be a good corporate governance practice
and would enable the Company to benefit from fresh perspectives and views of
another professional audit firm and further enhance the value of the audit. The External
Auditors will accordingly not be seeking re-appointment at the forthcoming AGM.

The AC has recommended the appointment of KPMG LLP as the new auditors of the
Company to the Board for approval, after taking into consideration the suitability of
KPMG LLP and the requirements of Rules 712(1) and 712(2) of the Catalist Rules. The
directors have taken into account the AC’s recommendation, including the factors
considered in the AC’s evaluation such as, amongst others, the adequacy of the
resources and experience of KPMG LLP, the audit engagement partner to be assigned
to the audit, as well as the size and complexity of the Group, and are satisfied that
KPMG LLP will be able to meet the audit requirements of the Company and that Rules
712(1) and 712(2) of the Catalist Rules are complied with. Please refer to the appendix as
set out on page 88 to 91 of this annual report for further details.
The AC had met with the External Auditors, without the presence of management to
review the adequacy of audit arrangements, with emphasis on the scope and quality of
their audit, and the independence, objectivity and observations of the External Auditors.
The Board has on the recommendation of the AC, implemented a whistle blowing
policy for the Group with the objective of providing an avenue for staff, suppliers and
customers to raise in confidence concerns about possible improprieties in matters of
financial reporting or other matters which they become aware. A copy of the whistle
blowing policy has been posted on the Company’s website for the information of its
stakeholders. There were no incidents pertaining to whistle blowing for FY2014.
It is the Company‘s practice for the External Auditors to present to the AC its audit
plan and with updates relating to any change in accounting standards impacting the
financial statements. During FY2014, the changes in accounting standards did not
have any material impact on the Group’s financial statements.
Internal Audit
Principle 13: The company should establish an effective internal audit function that
is adequately resourced and independent of the activities it audits.
As the size of the operations of the Group does not warrant the Group having an in-
house internal audit function, the Group outsourced its internal audit function to the
Internal Auditors as mentioned in Principle 11. The Internal Auditors consult and
report directly to the AC and administratively to the Board. During FY2014, the Internal
Auditors had reviewed key internal controls in the major operational areas of the
Group as detailed in the internal audit plan submitted to and approved by the AC as
mentioned in Principle 11. Findings and the Internal Auditors’ recommendations on
areas of improvement were reported to the AC and for management’s implementation
and were also made available to the External Auditors for review.
During FY2014, the AC held a conference call meeting with the Internal Auditors
without the presence of management to discuss their findings on the Company’s
observance of internal control measures that are in place.
The AC has reviewed the adequacy of the internal audit function and is satisfied that it
is adequately resourced and has appropriate standing within the Group to perform its
duties effectively.
SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Shareholder Rights
Principle 14: Companies should treat all shareholders fairly and equitably, and
should recognise, protect and facilitate the exercise of shareholders’ rights, and
continually review and update such governance arrangements.
The Group’s corporate governance practices promote fair and equitable treatment of
all shareholders. To facilitate shareholders’ ownership rights, the Group ensures that
all material information is disclosed on a comprehensive, accurate and timely basis
via SGXNET. The Group recognises that the release of timely and relevant information
is central to good corporate governance and enables shareholders to make informed
decisions in respect of their investments in the Company.
All shareholders are entitled to attend the AGM and are afforded the opportunity to
participate effectively at the AGM. The Articles of Association of the Company allow a
shareholder to appoint up to two proxies to attend and vote in the shareholder’s place
at the AGM.
Communication with Shareholders
Principle 15: Companies should actively engage their shareholders and put in place
an investor relations policy to promote regular, effective and fair communication with
shareholders.
The Company is committed to maintaining and improving its level of corporate
transparency of financial results and other pertinent information. In line with the continuous
disclosure obligations of the Company pursuant to the Catalist Rules and the Companies
Act, Cap. 50, it is the Board’s policy to ensure that all shareholders are informed on a
timely basis of every significant development that has an impact on the Group.

The Company does not practise selective disclosure. Results and annual reports are
announced or issued within the mandatory period.
The Company conducts its investor relations on the following principles:
(a) Information deemed to be price-sensitive is disseminated without delay via
announcements on SGXNET;
(b) Endeavour to provide comprehensive information in financial results
announcements to help shareholders and potential investors make informed
decisions; and
(c) Operate an open policy with regard to investors’ enquiries.
The Company does not have a definite dividend policy as the form, frequency and
amount of dividends declared each year will take into consideration the Group’s
retained earnings and expected future earnings, cash flow, capital requirements and
general financing condition, as well as general business conditions and other factors
as the Board may deem appropriate. Details of dividends declared to shareholders in
respect of FY2014 are set out on page 57 of this Annual Report.
Conduct of Shareholder Meetings
Principle 16: Companies should encourage greater shareholder participation
at general meetings of shareholders, and allow shareholders the opportunity to
communicate their views on various matters affecting the company.
All shareholders will receive the Company’s annual report and notice of AGM.
Shareholders will be given the opportunity and time to voice their views and ask
directors or the management questions regarding the Company at the forthcoming
AGM.
The Company takes note that there should be separate resolutions at general meetings
on each substantially separate issue and to avoid bundling resolutions.
The Chairman of each Board committee is required to be present to address questions
at the AGM. External Auditors are also present at such meeting to assist the directors
to address shareholders’ queries, if necessary.
The Articles of Association of the Company allow any member of the Company, if he is
unable to attend the meeting, to appoint not more than two proxies to attend and vote
on his behalf at the meeting through proxy forms sent in advance.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Dealing in Securities
The Company has devised and adopted policies in line with the requirements of the
Catalist Rules on dealings in the Company’s securities.
The Company and its officers are prohibited from dealing in the Company’s shares on
short-term considerations or at any time when they are in possession of unpublished
price-sensitive information. They are not allowed to deal in the Company’s shares
during the period commencing one month before the date of the announcement of the

The Company issues half yearly circular to its directors and officers informing them
that they must not deal in the Company’s securities before the release of results and
at any time they are in possession of unpublished material price-sensitive information.
Interested Person Transaction
The Company has adopted an internal policy in respect of any transaction with an
interested person, which sets out the procedures for review and approval of such
transaction.
All interested person transactions will be documented and submitted periodically to
the AC for their review to ensure that such transactions are carried out on an arm’s
length basis and on normal commercial terms and are not prejudicial to the Company.
Details of the interested person transaction entered into by the Group for FY2014 as
required pursuant to Rule 1204(17) of the Catalist Rules are set out below:

Audit and Non-Audit Fees
During FY2014, the aggregate amount of fees paid or payable to the External Auditors
of the Company for the audit and non-audit services amounted to $150,000 and
$9,700 respectively.
For the purposes of good governance and Rule 1204(6)(b) of the Catalist Rules, the
AC has undertaken a review of the fees and expenses payable to the External Auditors

Auditors for FY2014 are not services prohibited by the rules and in the AC’s opinion
would not affect the objectivity and independence of the External Auditors.

The directors of the company in office at the date of this report are:
Lim See Hoe
Lim Siew Cheng
Kwah Thiam Hock
Terrance Tan Kong Hwa
Joanne Khoo Su Nee (appointed on 10 January 2014)
2. Arrangements to Enable Directors to Acquire Benefits by Means of the
Acquisition of Shares and Debentures
Neither at the end of the reporting year nor at any time during the reporting
year did there subsist any arrangement whose object is to enable the directors
of the company to acquire benefits by means of the acquisition of shares or
debentures in the company or any other body corporate.
3. Directors’ Interests in Shares and Debentures
The directors of the company holding office at the end of the reporting year had
no interests in the share capital of the company and related corporations as
recorded in the register of directors’ shareholdings kept by the company under
section 164 of the Companies Act, Chapter 50 (“the Act’’) except as follows:
Name of directors in which
interests are held
At beginning of the
reporting year
At end of the
reporting year
Number of shares
Company
Lim See Hoe 39,909,659 56,497,578
Lim Siew Cheng 16,500,111 23,100,155
By virtue of section 7 of the Act, Mr Lim See Hoe is deemed to have an interest
in all the related corporations of the company.
The directors’ interests as at 21 July 2014 were the same as those at the end of
the reporting year.
4. Contractual Benefits of Directors
Since the beginning of the reporting year, no director of the company has
received or become entitled to receive a benefit which is required to be
disclosed under section 201(8) of the Act by reason of a contract made by the
company or a related corporation with the director or with a firm of which he is
a member, or with a company in which he has a substantial financial interest
except as disclosed in the financial statements.
There were certain transactions (shown in the financial statements under related
party transactions) with a corporation in which certain directors have an interest.
5. Performance Share Plan
The company’s performance share plan, TEHO Performance Share Plan (the
“PSP”), was approved and adopted by the shareholders at the company’s
Extraordinary General Meeting held on 25 November 2011. The PSP is
administered by the Remuneration Committee (“RC”) with such discretion,
powers and duties as are conferred on it by the Board of Directors.
The PSP contemplates the award of fully-paid shares in the capital of the
company to participants after certain pre-determined benchmarks have been
met. The company believes that the PSP will be more effective and rewarding
than pure cash bonuses in motivating employees to work towards pre-
determined goals of the company.
The PSP shall continue to be in force at the discretion of the RC, subject
to a maximum period of 10 years commencing from its adoption by the
shareholders and may continue beyond the stipulated period with the approval
of the shareholders by an ordinary resolution in general meeting and of any
relevant authorities which may then be required.

of shares that are issued or are issuable in respect of such other share-based
incentive schemes of the company (if any), shall not exceed 15% (or such other
percentage as may be prescribed or permitted from time to time by the SGX-
ST) of the total number of issued ordinary shares of the company on the day
immediately preceding the relevant award date.
There were no awards granted under the PSP by the company or any

There were no shares issued during the reporting year by virtue of the exercise

Kwah Thiam Hock – Chairman of Audit Committee and Lead Independent
Director
Terrance Tan Kong Hwa – Independent Director
Joanne Khoo Su Nee – Independent Director (appointed on 10 January 2014)
The audit committee performs the functions specified by section 201B(5) of the
Act. Among other functions, it performed the following:
• Reviewed with the independent external auditors their audit plan;
• Reviewed with the independent external auditors their evaluation of the
company’s internal accounting controls relevant to their statutory audit,
and their report on the financial statements and the assistance given by
management to them;
• Reviewed with the internal auditors the scope and results of the internal
audit procedures (including those relating to financial, operational,
compliance and information technology controls and risk management)
and the assistance given by the management to the internal auditors;
• Reviewed the financial statements of the group and the company prior to
their submission to the directors of the company for adoptions; and
• Reviewed the interested person transactions (as defined in Chapter 9 of
the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited’s Listing Manual).
Other functions performed by the audit committee are described in the report
of corporate governance included in the annual report. It also includes an
explanation of how independent auditors’ objectivity and independence are
safeguarded where the independent auditors provide non-audit services.
RSM Chio Lim LLP has served as the auditors of the company for seven
consecutive audits since the financial year ended 30 June 2008. The
directors are of the view that a change of auditors would be a good corporate
governance practice and would enable the company to benefit from fresh
perspectives and views of another professional audit firm and further enhance
the value of the audit. The external auditors will accordingly not be seeking re-
appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting. The audit committee
has reviewed a few audit firms and recommended to the board of directors that
KPMG LLP be nominated for appointment as auditors of the company at the
forthcoming Annual General Meeting.

Independent Auditors’ Report to the Members of
TEHO INTERNATIONAL INC LTD. (Registration No: 200811433K)
Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of TEHO
International Inc Ltd (the “company”) and its subsidiaries (the “group”), which comprise
the consolidated statements of financial position of the group and the statement of
financial position of the company as at 30 June 2014, and the consolidated statement
of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity
and statement of cash flows of the group, and statement of changes in equity of the
company for the reporting year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting
policies and other explanatory information.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation of financial statements that give
a true and fair view in accordance with the provisions of the Singapore Companies
Act, Chapter 50 (the “Act”) and Singapore Financial Reporting Standards, and for
devising and maintaining a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide
a reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorised
use or disposition; and transactions are properly authorised and that they are recorded
as necessary to permit the preparation of true and fair statement of profit or loss and
other comprehensive income and statements of financial position and to maintain
accountability of assets.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Singapore Standards on
Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the
amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected
depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material
misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making
those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s
preparation of financial statements that give a true and fair view in order to design
audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose
of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit
also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the
reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, 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 consolidated financial statements of the group and the statement
of financial position and statement of changes in equity of the company are properly
drawn up in accordance with the provisions of the Act and Singapore Financial
Reporting Standards so as to give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the
group and of the company as at 30 June 2014 and of the results, changes in equity
and cash flows of the group and the changes in equity of the company for the
reporting year ended on that date.
Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements
In our opinion, the accounting and other records required by the Act to be kept by
the company and by the subsidiaries incorporated in Singapore of which we are the
independent auditors have been properly kept in accordance with the provisions of the
Act.

Notes to the Financial Statements30 June 2014
1. General
The company is incorporated in Singapore with limited liability. The financial
statements are presented in Singapore dollar and they cover the company
(referred to as “parent”) and the subsidiaries.
The board of directors approved and authorised these financial statements for
issue on the date of the statement by directors.
The company is an investment holding company. It is listed on the Catalist
which is a shares market on Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Ltd.
The principal activities of the subsidiaries are described in the notes to the
financial statements below.
The registered office is: 1 Commonwealth Lane, #09-23, One Commonwealth,
Singapore 149544. The company is situated in Singapore.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Accounting Convention
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Singapore
Financial Reporting Standards (“FRS”) and the related Interpretations to FRS
(“INT FRS”) as issued by the Singapore Accounting Standards Council and
the Companies Act, Chapter 50. The financial statements are prepared on
a going concern basis under the historical cost convention except where an
FRS requires an alternative treatment (such as fair values) as disclosed where
appropriate in these financial statements. The accounting policies in FRSs need
not be applied when the effect of applying them is immaterial. The disclosures
required by FRSs need not be made if the information is immaterial. Other
comprehensive income comprises items of income and expense (including
reclassification adjustments) that are not recognised in the income statement,
as required or permitted by FRS. Reclassification adjustments are amounts
reclassified to profit or loss in the income statement in the current period that
were recognised in other comprehensive income in the current or previous
periods.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements made
up to the end of the reporting year of the company and all of its subsidiaries.
The consolidated financial statements are the financial statements of the group
in which the assets, liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows of the
parent and its subsidiaries are presented as those of a single economic entity
and are prepared using uniform accounting policies for like transactions and
other events in similar circumstances. All significant intragroup balances and
transactions, including income, expenses and cash flows are eliminated on
consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the income and
expenses of a subsidiary from the date the entity gains control until the date
when the entity ceases to control the subsidiary. Income and expenses of the
subsidiary are based on the amounts of the assets and liabilities recognised in
the consolidated financial statements at the acquisition date.
Changes in the group’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in
the loss of control are accounted for within equity as transactions with owners
in their capacity as owners. The carrying amounts of the group’s and non-
controlling interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests
in the subsidiary. When the group loses control of a subsidiary it derecognises
the assets and liabilities and related equity components of the former
subsidiary. Any gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss. Any investment
retained in the former subsidiary is measured at its fair value at the date when
control is lost and is subsequently accounted as available-for-sale financial
assets in accordance with FRS 39.
The company’s separate financial statements have been prepared on the same
basis, and as permitted by the Companies Act, Chapter 50, the company’s
separate statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income is not
presented.
The equity accounting method is used for associates in the group financial
statements.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Basis of Preparation of the Financial Statements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires the management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting year. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The estimates
and assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Apart from those involving
estimations, management has made judgements in the process of applying the
entity’s accounting policies. The areas requiring management’s most difficult,
subjective or complex judgements, or areas where assumptions and estimates
are significant to the financial statements, are disclosed at the end of this
footnote, where applicable.
Revenue Recognition
The revenue amount is the fair value of the consideration received or receivable
from the gross inflow of economic benefits during the reporting year arising
from the course of the activities of the entity and it is shown net of any related
sales taxes and rebates. Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when
significant risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to the buyer, there is
neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with
ownership nor effective control over the goods sold, and the amount of revenue
and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be
measured reliably. Revenue from rendering of services that are not significant
transactions is recognised as the services are provided or when the significant
acts have been completed. Interest is recognised using the effective interest
method. Dividend from equity instruments is recognised as income when the
entity’s right to receive payment is established. Rental revenue is recognised on
a time-proportion basis that takes into account the effective yield on the asset
on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Revenue Recognition (Continued)
For residential and mixed development properties under progressive payment
schemes in Singapore, whereby the legal terms in the sales contracts result in
the continuous transfer of work-in-progress to the purchasers, revenue and cost
are recognised using the stage of completion method. The amounts brought
into the financial statements are the results attributable to each sale contracts
signed, but only to the extent that they relate to the stage of completion as
certified by the independent architects or quantity surveyors for the individual
units sold.
For the industrial and commercial development properties, the revenue and
cost are recognised using the completion of construction method, when the
development is completed. Developments are considered completed upon the
issuance of temporary occupation permits (“TOP”).
When losses are expected on the properties, full provision is made in the
financial statements after adequate consideration has been made for estimated
costs to completion.
Employee Benefits
Contributions to a defined contribution retirement benefit plan are recorded
as an expense as they fall due. The entity’s legal or constructive obligation
is limited to the amount that it agrees to contribute to an independently
administered fund (such as the Central Provident Fund in Singapore, a
government managed defined contribution retirement benefit plan). For
employee leave entitlement the expected cost of short-term employee benefits
in the form of compensated absences is recognised in the case of accumulating
compensated absences, when the employees render service that increases
their entitlement to future compensated absences; and in the case of non-
accumulating compensated absences, when the absences occur. A liability for
bonuses is recognised where the entity is contractually obliged or where there
is constructive obligation based on past practice.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Share-Based Compensation
Benefits to employees are provided in the form of share-based payment
transactions, whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights
over shares (‘‘equity-settled transactions’’). The fair value of the employee services
rendered is determined by reference to the fair value of the shares awarded or
rights granted, excluding the impact of any non-market vesting conditions. These
are fair valued based on the market price of the entity’s shares (or an estimated
market price, if the entity’s shares are not publicly traded). This fair value amount
is charged to profit or loss over the vesting period of the share-based payment
scheme, with the corresponding increase in equity. The value of the charge
is adjusted in profit or loss over the remainder of the vesting period to reflect
expected and actual quantities vesting, with the corresponding adjustment made in
equity. Cancellations of grants of equity instruments during the vesting period (other
than a grant cancelled by forfeiture when the vesting conditions are not satisfied)
are accounted for as an acceleration of vesting, therefore any amount unrecognised
that would otherwise have been charged is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Income Tax
The income taxes are accounted using the asset and liability method that
requires the recognition of taxes payable or refundable for the current year
and deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequence of events
that have been recognised in the financial statements or tax returns. The
measurements of current and deferred tax liabilities and assets are based on
provisions of the enacted or substantially enacted tax laws; the effects of future
changes in tax laws or rates are not anticipated. Tax expense (tax income) is
the aggregate amount included in the determination of profit or loss for the
reporting year in respect of current tax and deferred tax. Current and deferred
income taxes are recognised as income or as an expense in profit or loss
unless the tax relates to items that are recognised in the same or a different
period outside profit or loss. For such items recognised outside profit or loss
the current tax and deferred tax are recognised (a) in other comprehensive
income if the tax is related to an item recognised in other comprehensive
income and (b) directly in equity if the tax is related to an item recognised
directly in equity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they
relate to income taxes levied by the same income tax authority. The carrying
amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each end of the reporting year
and is reduced, if necessary, by the amount of any tax benefits that, based on
available evidence, are not expected to be realised. A deferred tax amount is
recognised for all temporary differences, unless the deferred tax amount arises
from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction which (i) is not
a business combination; and (ii) at the time of the transaction, affects neither
accounting profit nor taxable profit (tax loss). A deferred tax liability or asset is
recognised for all taxable temporary differences associated with investments in
subsidiaries and associates, except where the reporting entity is able to control
the timing of the reversal of the taxable temporary difference and it is probable
that the taxable temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future
or for deductible temporary differences, they will not reverse in the foreseeable
future and they cannot be utilised against taxable profits.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Foreign Currency Transactions
The functional currency is the Singapore dollar as it reflects the primary economic
environment in which the entity operates. Transactions in foreign currencies
are recorded in the functional currency at the rates ruling at the dates of the
transactions. At each end of the reporting year, recorded monetary balances and
balances measured at fair value that are denominated in non-functional currencies
are reported at the rates ruling at the end of the reporting year and fair value
measurement dates respectively. All realised and unrealised exchange adjustment
gains and losses are dealt with in profit or loss except when recognised in other
comprehensive income and if applicable deferred in equity such as for qualifying
cash flow hedges. The presentation is in the functional currency.
Translation of Financial Statements of Foreign Entities
Each entity in the group determines the appropriate functional currency as it
reflects the primary economic environment in which the relevant reporting
entity operates. In translating the financial statements of such an entity for
incorporation in the consolidated financial statements in the presentation
currency the assets and liabilities denominated in other currencies are
translated at end of the reporting year rates of exchange and the income
and expense items for each statement presenting profit or loss and other
comprehensive income are translated at average rates of exchange for the
reporting year. The resulting translation adjustments (if any) are recognised in
other comprehensive income and accumulated in a separate component of
equity until the disposal of that relevant entity.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Segment Reporting
The reporting entity discloses financial and descriptive information about
its consolidated reportable segments. Reportable segments are operating
segments or aggregations of operating segments that meet specified criteria.
Operating segments are components about which separate financial information
is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker
in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing the performance.
Generally, financial information is reported on the same basis as is used
internally for evaluating operating segment performance and deciding how to
allocate resources to operating segments.
Borrowing Costs
Borrowing costs are interest and other costs incurred in connection with the
borrowing of funds. The interest expense is calculated using the effective
interest rate method. Borrowing costs are recognised as an expense in the
period in which they are incurred except that borrowing costs that are directly
attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset
that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended
use or sale are capitalised as part of the cost of that asset until substantially all
the activities necessary to prepare the qualifying asset for its intended use or
sale are complete.
Government Grants
A government grant is recognised at fair value when there is reasonable
assurance that the conditions attaching to it will be complied with and that the
grant will be received. A grant in recognition of specific expenses is recognised
as income over the periods necessary to match them with the related costs
that they are intended to compensate, on a systematic basis. A grant related
to depreciable assets is allocated to income over the period in which such
assets are used in the project subsidised by the grant. A government grant
related to assets, including non-monetary grants at fair value, is presented in
the statement of financial position.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Property, Plant and Equipment
Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis to allocate the gross carrying
amounts of the assets less their residual values over their estimated useful lives
of each part of an item of these assets. The annual rates of depreciation are as
follows:
Leasehold buildings – Over the terms of lease that are 37 to 44 years
Plant and machinery – 5 to 10 years
Motor vehicles – 5 years
An asset is depreciated when it is available for use until it is derecognised even
if during that period the item is idle. Fully depreciated assets still in use are
retained in the financial statements.
Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost on initial recognition and
after initial recognition at cost less any accumulated depreciation and any
accumulated impairment losses. The gain or loss arising from the derecognition
of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference
between the net disposal proceeds, if any, and the carrying amount of the item
and is recognised in profit or loss. The residual value and the useful life of an
asset is reviewed at least at each end of the reporting year and, if expectations
differ significantly from previous estimates, the changes are accounted for as a
change in an accounting estimate, and the depreciation charge for the current
and future periods are adjusted.
Cost also includes acquisition cost, borrowing cost capitalised and any cost
directly attributable to bringing the asset or component to the location and
condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended
by management. Subsequent costs are recognised as an asset only when it is
probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the
entity and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and
maintenance are charged to profit or loss when they are incurred.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Property, Plant and Equipment (Continued)
If fair value can be measured reliably, after the initial recognition as an asset
at cost, an item of property, plant and equipment (leasehold buildings) is
carried at a revalued amount, being its fair value at the date of the revaluation
less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated
impairment losses. Revaluations are made with sufficient regularity to ensure
that the carrying amount does not differ materially from that which would be
measured using fair value at the end of the reporting year and the entire class
of property, plant and equipment to which that asset belongs is revalued. When
an asset’s carrying amount is increased as a result of a revaluation, the increase
is recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity under
the heading of revaluation surplus except that the increase is recognised in
profit or loss to the extent that it reverses a revaluation decrease of the same
asset previously recognised in profit or loss. When an asset’s carrying amount
is decreased, the decrease is recognised in other comprehensive income to the
extent of any credit balance existing in the revaluation surplus in respect of that
asset. The decrease recognised in other comprehensive income reduces the
amount accumulated in equity under the heading of revaluation surplus. The
revaluation surplus included in equity is transferred directly to retained earnings
when the asset is derecognised.
However, some of the surplus is realised as the asset is used as the difference
between depreciation based on the revalued carrying amount of the asset
and depreciation based on the asset’s original cost and these transfers from
revaluation surplus to retained earnings are not made through the other
comprehensive income.
When an item of property, plant and equipment is revalued, any accumulated
depreciation at the date of the revaluation is eliminated against the gross
carrying amount of the asset and the net amount restated to the revalued
amount of the asset. Accumulated depreciation is the difference between the
gross and the net carrying amounts, irrespective of the valuation method or
type of asset revalued.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Leases
Whether an arrangement is, or contains, a lease is based on the substance
of the arrangement at the inception date, that is, whether (a) fulfilment of the
arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets (the asset);
and (b) the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset. Leases are classified
as finance leases if substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are
transferred to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
At the commencement of the lease term, a finance lease is recognised as an
asset and as a liability in the statement of financial position at amounts equal to
the fair value of the leased 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 lease, if this is practicable to determine,
the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate is used. Any initial direct costs of
the lessee are added to the amount recognised as an asset. The excess
of the lease payments over the recorded lease liability are treated as finance
charges which are allocated to each reporting year during the lease term so
as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of
the liability. Contingent rents are charged as expenses in the reporting years
in which they are incurred. The assets are depreciated as owned depreciable
assets. Leases where the lessor effectively retains substantially all the risks and
benefits of ownership of the leased assets are classified as operating leases.
For operating leases, lease payments are recognised as an expense in profit or
loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease unless another
systematic basis is representative of the time pattern of the user’s benefit, even
if the payments are not on that basis. Lease incentives received are recognised
in profit or loss as an integral part of the total lease expense. Rental income
from operating leases is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over
the term of the relevant lease unless another systematic basis is representative
of the time pattern of the user’s benefit, even if the payments are not on that
basis. Initial direct cost incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease
are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised on a
straight-line basis over the lease term.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Intangible Assets
An identifiable non-monetary asset without physical substance is recognised
as an intangible asset at acquisition cost if it is probable that the expected
future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the entity
and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. After initial recognition, an
intangible asset with finite useful life is carried at cost less any accumulated
amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. An intangible asset with
an indefinite useful life is not amortised. An intangible asset is regarded as
having an indefinite useful life when, based on an analysis of all of the relevant
factors, there is no foreseeable limit to the period over which the asset is
expected to generate net cash inflows for the entity.
The amortisable amount of an intangible asset with finite useful life is allocated
on a systematic basis over the best estimate of its useful life from the point at
which the asset is ready for use. The useful lives are as follows:
Customer relationship - 5 years
Orderbook - Based on actual orders for reporting years 2013
and 2014
Identifiable intangible assets acquired as part of a business combination are
initially recognised separately from goodwill if the asset’s fair value can be
measured reliably, irrespective of whether the asset had been recognised by
the acquiree before the business combination. An intangible asset is considered
identifiable only if it is separable or if it arises from contractual or other legal
rights, regardless of whether those rights are transferable or separable from the
entity or from other rights and obligations.
Subsidiaries
A subsidiary is an entity including unincorporated and special purpose entity that is
controlled by the group. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating
policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities accompanying a
shareholding of more than one half of the voting rights or the ability to appoint or
remove the majority of the members of the board of directors or to cast the majority
of votes at meetings of the board of directors. The existence and effect of potential
voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when
assessing whether the group controls another entity.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Subsidiaries (Continued)
In the company’s own separate financial statements, an investment in a
subsidiary is accounted for at cost less any allowance for impairment in value.
Impairment loss recognised in profit or loss for a subsidiary is reversed only
if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s
recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. The
carrying value and the net book value of the investment in a subsidiary are not
necessarily indicative of the amount that would be realised in a current market.
Associates
An associate is an entity including an unincorporated entity in which the
reporting entity has a significant influence and that is neither a subsidiary nor
a joint venture of the investor. Significant influence is the power to participate
in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control
or joint control over those policies. An investment in an associate includes
goodwill on acquisition, which is accounted for in accordance with FRS 103
Business Combinations. However the entire carrying amount of the investment
is tested under FRS 36 for impairment, by comparing its recoverable amount
(higher of value in use and fair value) with its carrying amount, whenever
application of the requirements in FRS 39 indicates that the investment may
be impaired. The carrying value and the net book value of the investment in the
associate are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that would be realised in
a current market exchange.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Associates (Continued)
In the consolidated financial statements, the accounting for investments in an
associate is on the equity method. Under the equity method the investment
is initially recognised at cost and adjusted thereafter for the post-acquisition
change in the investor’s share of the investee’s net assets. The investor’s profit
or loss includes its share of the investee’s profit or loss and the investor’s other
comprehensive income includes its share of the investee’s other comprehensive
income. Losses of an associate in excess of the reporting entity’s interest in the
relevant associate are not recognised except to the extent that the reporting
entity has an obligation. Profits and losses resulting from transactions between
the reporting entity and an associate are recognised in the financial statements
only to the extent of unrelated reporting entity’s interests in the associate.
Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence
of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of associates
are changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted
by the reporting entity. The reporting entity discontinues the use of the equity
method from the date that when its investment ceases to be an associate and
accounts for the investment in accordance with FRS 39 from that date. Any
gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss. Any investment retained in the former
associate is measured at fair value at the date that it ceases to be an associate.
In the company’s separate financial statements, an investment in an associate
is accounted for at cost less any allowance for impairment in value. Impairment
loss recognised in profit or loss for an associate is reversed only if there has
been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable
amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. The carrying value
and the net book value of an investment in the associate are not necessarily
indicative of the amounts that would be realised in a current market exchange.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Business Combinations
A business combination is transaction or other event which requires that the
assets acquired and liabilities assumed constitute a business. It is accounted
for by applying the acquisition method of accounting. The cost of a business
combination includes the fair values, at the date of exchange, of assets given,
liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity instruments issued by the acquirer,
in exchange for control of the acquiree. The acquisition-related costs are
expensed in the periods in which the costs are incurred and the services are
received except for any costs to issue debt or equity securities are recognised
in accordance with FRS 32 and FRS 39. As of the acquisition date, the acquirer
recognises, separately from goodwill, the identifiable assets acquired, the
liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree measured
at acquisition-date fair values as defined in and that meet the conditions for
recognition under FRS 103. Goodwill is an asset representing the future
economic benefits arising from other assets acquired in a business combination
that are not individually identified and separately recognised. If there is
gain on bargain purchase, a reassessment is made of the identification and
measurement of the acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent
liabilities and the measurement of the cost of the business combination. Any
excess remaining after this reassessment is recognised immediately in profit or
loss.
Goodwill
Goodwill is recognised as of the acquisition date measured as the excess of
(a) over (b); (a) being the aggregate of: (i) the consideration transferred which
generally requires acquisition-date fair value; (ii) the amount of any non-
controlling interest in the acquiree measured in accordance with FRS 103
(measured either at fair value or as the non-controlling interest’s proportionate
share of the acquiree’s net identifiable assets); and (iii) in a business
combination achieved in stages, the acquisition-date fair value of the acquirer’s
previously held equity interest in the acquiree; and (b) being the net of the
acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities
assumed measured in accordance with this FRS 103.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
After initial recognition, goodwill acquired in a business combination is
measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is not
amortised. Irrespective of whether there is any indication of impairment,
goodwill (and also an intangible asset with an indefinite useful life or an
intangible asset not yet available for use) are tested for impairment, at least
annually. Goodwill impairment is not reversed in any circumstances.
For the purpose of impairment testing and since the acquisition date of the business
combination, goodwill is allocated to each cash-generating unit, or groups of cash-
generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination,
irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquiree were assigned
to those units or groups of units. Each unit or group of units to which the goodwill
is so allocated represent the lowest level within the entity at which the goodwill is
monitored for internal management purposes and is not larger than a segment.
Impairment of Non-Financial Assets
Irrespective of whether there is any indication of impairment, an annual impairment
test is performed at the same time every year on an intangible asset with an
indefinite useful life or an intangible asset not yet available for use. The carrying
amount of other non-financial assets is reviewed at each end of the reporting year
for indications of impairment and where an asset is impaired, it is written down
through profit or loss to its estimated recoverable amount. The impairment loss is
the excess of the carrying amount over the recoverable amount and is recognised
in profit or loss unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which
case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease. The recoverable
amount of an asset or a cash-generating unit is the higher of its fair value less costs
of disposal and its value in use. When the fair value less costs of disposal method
is used, any available recent market transactions are taken into consideration.
When the value in use method is adopted, in assessing the value in use, the
estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax
discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money
and the risks specific to the asset. For the purposes of assessing impairment,
assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable
cash flows (cash-generating units). At each end of the reporting year non-financial
assets other than goodwill with impairment loss recognised in prior periods are
assessed for possible reversal of the impairment. 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 measured, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no
impairment loss had been recognised.

Impairment of Non-Financial Assets (Continued)
However, an impairment loss on a revalued asset is recognised in other
comprehensive income and accumulated in equity under the heading of
revaluation surplus for the asset to the extent that the impairment loss does not
exceed the amount in the revaluation surplus for that same asset.
Inventories
Inventories of goods held for resale are measured at the lower of cost (first in
first out method) and net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated
selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of
completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. A write down
on cost is made where the cost is not recoverable or if the selling prices have
declined. Cost includes all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other
costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.
In the case of manufactured inventories and work in progress, cost includes an
appropriate share of overheads based on normal operating capacity.
Development Properties
Development properties are properties being constructed or developed for sale.
The cost of properties under development comprises specifically identified
costs, including land acquisition costs, development expenditure, borrowing
costs and other related expenditure. Borrowing costs payable on loans funding
a development property are also capitalised, on a specific identification
basis, as part of the cost of the development property until the completion of
development. The cumulative impact of a revision in estimates is recorded in
the period such revisions become likely and estimable.
1. Unsold development properties – Development properties that are
unsold are carried at the lower of cost (specific identification method)
and net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling
price in the ordinary course of business less cost to complete
development and selling expenses.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Development Properties (Continued)
2. Sold development properties – Please see policy on revenue recognition
above.
The development properties in progress have operating cycles longer than
one year. The management includes in current assets amounts relating to the
development properties in progress realisable over a period in excess of one
year.
Financial Assets
Initial recognition, measurement and derecognition:
A financial asset is recognised on the statement of financial position when,
and only when, the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the
instrument. The initial recognition of financial assets is at fair value normally
represented by the transaction price. The transaction price for financial asset
not classified at fair value through profit or loss includes the transaction costs
that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial asset.
Transaction costs incurred on the acquisition or issue of financial assets
classified at fair value through profit or loss are expensed immediately. The
transactions are recorded at the trade date.
Irrespective of the legal form of the transactions performed, financial assets
are derecognised when they pass the “substance over form” based on the
derecognition test prescribed by FRS 39 relating to the transfer of risks and
rewards of ownership and the transfer of control. Financial assets and financial
liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the statement of financial
position if there is currently a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised
amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets
and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Financial Assets (Continued)
Subsequent measurement:
Subsequent measurement based on the classification of the financial assets in
one of the following four categories under FRS 39 is as follows:
1. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss: Assets are classified
in this category when they are incurred principally for the purpose
of selling or repurchasing in the near term (trading assets) or are
derivatives (except for a derivative that is a designated and effective
hedging instrument) or have been classified in this category because
the conditions are met to use the “fair value option” and it is used. All
changes in fair value relating to assets at fair value through profit or
loss are recognised directly in profit or loss. They are classified as non-
current assets unless management intends to dispose of the asset within
12 months of the end of the reporting year.
2. Loans and receivables: Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Assets that are for sale immediately or in the near term are not classified in this category. These assets are carried at amortised costs using the effective interest method (except that short-duration receivables with no stated interest rate are normally measured at original invoice amount unless the effect of imputing interest would be significant) minus any reduction (directly or through the use of an allowance account) for impairment or uncollectibility. Impairment charges are provided only when there is objective evidence that an impairment loss has been incurred as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a “loss event”) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. The methodology ensures that an impairment loss is not recognised on the initial recognition of an asset. Losses expected as a result of future events, no matter how likely, are not recognised. For impairment, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced through use of an allowance account. The amount of the loss is recognised in profit or loss. An impairment loss is reversed if the reversal can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised. Typically the trade and other receivables are classified in this category.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Financial Assets (Continued)
3. Held-to-maturity financial assets: As at end of the reporting year date
there were no financial assets classified in this category.
4. Available-for-sale financial assets: As at end of the reporting year date
there were no financial assets classified in this category.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include bank and cash balances, on demand
deposits and any highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original
maturity of three months or less. For the statement of cash flows the item
includes cash and cash equivalents less cash subject to restriction and bank
overdrafts payable on demand that form an integral part of cash management.
Hedging
The entity is exposed to currency and interest rate risks. The policy is to reduce
currency and interest rate exposures through derivatives and other hedging
instruments. From time to time, there may be borrowings and foreign exchange
arrangements or interest rate swap contracts or similar instruments entered
into as hedges against changes in interest rates, cash flows or the fair value of
the financial assets and liabilities. These arrangements are not used for trading
or speculative purposes. They are carried at fair value. The gain or loss from
remeasuring these hedging or other arrangement instruments at fair value are
recognised in profit or loss. The derivatives and other hedging instruments used
are described below in the notes to the financial statements.
Derivatives
All derivatives are initially recognised and subsequently carried at fair value.
Accounting for derivatives engaged in hedging relationships is described
in the above section. Certain derivatives are entered into in order to hedge
some transactions and all the strict hedging criteria prescribed by FRS 39 are
not met. In those cases, even though the transaction has its economic and
business rationale, hedge accounting cannot be applied. As a result, changes in
the fair value of those derivatives are recognised directly in profit or loss and the
hedged item follows normal accounting policies.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Financial Liabilities
Initial recognition, measurement and derecognition:
A financial liability is recognised on the statement of financial position when,
and only when, the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the
instrument and it is derecognised when the obligation specified in the contract
is discharged or cancelled or expires. The initial recognition of financial liability
is at fair value normally represented by the transaction price. The transaction
price for financial liability not classified at fair value through profit or loss
includes the transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition
or issue of the financial liability. Transaction costs incurred on the acquisition
or issue of financial liability classified at fair value through profit or loss are
expensed immediately. The transactions are recorded at the trade date.
Financial liabilities including bank and other borrowings are classified as current
liabilities unless there is an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability
for at least 12 months after the end of the reporting year.
Subsequent measurement:
Subsequent measurement based on the classification of the financial liabilities
in one of the following two categories under FRS 39 is as follows:
1. Liabilities at fair value through profit or loss: Liabilities are classified
in this category when they are incurred principally for the purpose
of selling or repurchasing in the near term (trading liabilities) or are
derivatives (except for a derivative that is a designated and effective
hedging instrument) or have been classified in this category because the
conditions are met to use the “fair value option” and it is used. Financial
guarantee contracts if significant are initially recognised at fair value and
are subsequently measured at the greater of (a) the amount determined
in accordance with FRS 37 and (b) the amount initially recognised less,
where appropriate, cumulative amortisation recognised in accordance
with FRS 18. All changes in fair value relating to liabilities at fair value
through profit or loss are charged to profit or loss as incurred.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Financial Liabilities (Continued)
2. Other financial liabilities: All liabilities, which have not been classified as
in the previous category fall into this residual category. These liabilities
are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Trade
and other payables and borrowings are usually classified in this category.
Items classified within current trade and other payables are not usually
re-measured, as the obligation is usually known with a high degree of
certainty and settlement is short-term.
Fair Value Measurement
Fair value is taken to be the price that would be received to sell an asset
or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market
participants at the measurement date (that is, an exit price). It is a market-
based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. When measuring fair
value, management uses the assumptions that market participants would use
when pricing the asset or liability under current market conditions, including
assumptions about risk. The entity’s intention to hold an asset or to settle or
otherwise fulfil a liability is not taken into account as relevant when measuring
fair value. In making the fair value measurement, management determines
the following: (a) the particular asset or liability being measured (these are
identified and disclosed in the relevant notes below); (b) for a non-financial
asset, the highest and best use of the asset and whether the asset is used
in combination with other assets or on a stand-alone basis; (c) the market in
which an orderly transaction would take place for the asset or liability; and (d)
the appropriate valuation techniques to use when measuring fair value. The
valuation techniques used maximise the use of relevant observable inputs and
minimise unobservable inputs. These inputs are consistent with the inputs a
market participant may use when pricing the asset or liability.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Fair Value Measurement (Continued)
The fair value measurements and related disclosures categorise the inputs to
valuation techniques used to measure fair value by using a fair value hierarchy
of three levels. These are recurring fair value measurements unless stated
otherwise in the relevant notes to the financial statements. Level 1 inputs are
quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that
the entity can access at the measurement date. Level 2 inputs are inputs other
than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or
liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for
the asset or liability. The level is measured on the basis of the lowest level input
that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Transfers between
levels of the fair value hierarchy are deemed to have occurred at the beginning
of the reporting year. If a financial instrument measured at fair value has a
bid price and an ask price, the price within the bid-ask spread or mid-market
pricing that is most representative of fair value in the circumstances is used to
measure fair value regardless of where the input is categorised within the fair
value hierarchy. If there is no market, or the markets available are not active, the
fair value is established by using an acceptable valuation technique.
The carrying values of current financial instruments approximate their fair values
due to the short-term maturity of these instruments and the disclosures of fair
value are not made when the carrying amount of current financial instruments
is a reasonable approximation of the fair value. The fair values of non-current
financial instruments may not be disclosed separately unless there are
significant differences at the end of the reporting year and in the event the fair
values are disclosed in the relevant notes to the financial statements.
Equity
Equity instruments are contracts that give a residual interest in the net assets
of the company. Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Equity instruments are
recognised at the amount of proceeds received net of incremental costs directly
attributable to the transaction. Dividends on equity are recognised as liabilities
when they are declared. Interim dividends are recognised when declared by the
directors.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Provisions
A liability or provision is recognised when there is a present obligation (legal
or constructive) as a result of a past event, 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. A
provision is made using best estimates of the amount required in settlement
and where the effect of the time value of money is material, the amount
recognised is the present value of the expenditures expected to be required
to settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market
assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation.
The increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognised as interest
expense. Changes in estimates are reflected in profit or loss in the reporting
year they occur.
Critical Judgements, Assumptions and Estimation Uncertainties
The critical judgements made in the process of applying the accounting policies
that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial
statements and the key assumptions concerning the future, and other key
sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting year, that have
a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of
assets and liabilities currently or within the next reporting year are discussed
below. These estimates and assumptions are periodically monitored to ensure
they incorporate all relevant information available at the date when financial
statements are prepared. However, this does not prevent actual figures differing
from estimates.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Critical Judgements, Assumptions and Estimation Uncertainties (Continued)
Allowance for doubtful trade accounts:
An allowance is made for doubtful trade accounts for estimated losses resulting
from the subsequent inability of the customers to make required payments.
If the financial conditions of the customers were to deteriorate, resulting
in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances
may be required in future periods. Management generally analyses trade
receivables and historical bad debts, customer concentrations, and customer
creditworthiness when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful
trade receivables. To the extent that it is feasible impairment and uncollectibility
are determined individually for each item. In cases where that process is not
feasible, a collective evaluation of impairment is performed. At the end of
the reporting year, the trade receivables carrying amount approximates the
fair value and the carrying amounts might change materially within the next
reporting year but these changes would not arise from assumptions or other
sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting year. The carrying
amount is disclosed in the Note on trade and other receivables.
Net realisable value of inventories of goods held for resale:
A review is made periodically on inventory for excess inventory and declines
in net realisable value below cost and an allowance is recorded against the
inventory balance for any such declines. The review requires management to
consider the future demand for the products. In any case the realisable value
represents the best estimate of the recoverable amount and is based on the
acceptable evidence available at the end of the reporting year and inherently
involves estimates regarding the future expected realisable value. The usual
considerations for determining the amount of allowance or write-down include
ageing analysis, technical assessment and subsequent events. In general, such
an evaluation process requires significant judgement and materially affects
the carrying amount of inventories at the end of the reporting year. Possible
changes in these estimates could result in revisions to the stated value of the
inventories. The carrying amount of inventories at the end of the reporting year
was disclosed in the Note on inventories.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Critical Judgements, Assumptions and Estimation Uncertainties (Continued)
Recognition of revenue and expenses relating to development properties
accounted on the stage of completion method:
The stage of completion method is applied on a cumulative basis in
each accounting period to the current estimates of revenue and costs of
development property. Changes in the estimate of revenue or costs, or the
effect of a change in the estimate of the outcome of a development property
could impact the amount of revenue and expenses recognised in profit or loss
in the period in which the change is made and in subsequent periods. Such
impact could potentially be significant. Significant judgement is required in
estimating reasonable amounts of variation claims to be recognised as cost in
project budgets and in determining if the company has to make provisions for
any potential liquidated damages exposure and other losses.
Assessment of impairment of goodwill:
An assessment is made annually whether goodwill has suffered any impairment
loss. The assessment process is complex and highly judgmental and is based
on assumptions that are affected by expected future market or economic
conditions. Judgement is required in identifying the cash generating units
(“CGU”) and the use of estimates as disclosed in Note 16A. Actual outcomes
could vary from these estimates as disclosed in Note 16A.

results or financial position of the reporting entity.
4. Financial Information by Operating Segments (Continued)
4A. Information about Reportable Segment Profit or Loss, Assets and Liabilities
(Continued)
For management purposes the reporting entity is organised into the following
major strategic operating segments that offer different products and services: –
(1) Marine, Offshore Oil & Gas, and (2) Property Development. Such a structural
organisation is determined by the nature of risks and returns associated with
each business segment and defines the management structure as well as the
internal reporting system. It represents the basis on which the management
reports the primary segment information. They are managed separately because
each business requires different strategies.
The segments and the types of products and services are as follows:
Marine, Offshore Oil & Gas Segment – This segment sells rigging and mooring
equipment, offshore oil and gas equipment, and related marine and engineering
hardware and accessories.
Property Development Segment – This segment develops, markets and sells
real estate properties.
Inter-segment sales are measured on the basis that the entity actually used to
price the transfers. Internal transfer pricing policies of the group are as far as
practicable based on market prices. The accounting policies of the operating
segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant
accounting policies.
The management reporting system evaluates performances based on a
number of factors. However, the primary profitability measurement to evaluate
segment’s operating results comprises two major financial indicators: (1)
earnings from operations before depreciation and amortisation, interests and
income taxes (called “Recurring EBITDA”) and (2) operating result before
interests and income taxes and other unallocated items (called “ORBIT”).
The following tables illustrate the information about the reportable segment
profit or loss, assets and liabilities.

Leasehold ramp-
up factory unit for

External and independent valuers were sourced to determine the fair values of
the group’s leasehold properties at least once every three years based on the
properties’ highest and best use. The fair values of the leasehold warehouses
were based on valuations carried out by independent valuers at the end of the
reporting year. Based on a valuation carried out by another independent valuer
at the end of the reporting year, the fair value of the group’s leasehold ramp-up
factory unit was not materially different from its carrying value. Thus, for practical
purposes, no revaluation adjustments were made in respect of the leasehold
ramp-up factory unit. Management determined that the highest and best use of
the asset is the current use and that it would provide maximum value to market
participants principally through its use in combination with other assets.

impairment loss is the amount by which the carrying amount of an asset or a
CGU exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset or a
CGU is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal or its value in use. The
recoverable amounts of CGUs have been measured based on the value in use
method as appropriate for the separate CGUs.
No impairment charges were recognised because the carrying amount of the
CGU was lower than its recoverable amount.
16. Intangible Assets (Continued)
16A. Goodwill (Continued)
The value in use was measured by the management. The key assumptions
for the value in use calculations are as follows. The value in use is a recurring
fair value measurement (Level 3). The quantitative information about the value
in use measurement using significant unobservable inputs for the CGU are
consistent with those used for the measurement last performed and is analysed
as follows:
TEHO Engineering Pte Ltd
Valuation technique and unobservable inputs Range (weighted average)
Discounted cash flow method: 2014 2013
Estimated discount rates using pre-tax rates that
reflect current market assessments at the risks
specific to the CGUs. 9.8% 11%
Growth rates based on industry growth forecasts
and not exceeding the average long-term growth
rate for the relevant markets. 1.8% to 3.8% 6% to 17%
Cash flow forecasts derived from the most
recent financial budgets and plans approved by
management. 3 years 3 years
Actual outcomes could vary from these estimates. If the revised estimated
gross margin at the end of the reporting year had been 10% less favourable
than management’s estimates at the end of the reporting year, there would be
no reduction on the carrying value of goodwill. If the revised estimated pre-
tax discount rate applied to the discounted cash flows had been 10% less
favourable than management’s estimates, there would be no reduction on the
carrying value of goodwill. If the actual gross margin and the pre-tax discount
rate had been more favourable than management’s estimates, management
would not be able to reverse any impairment losses that arose on goodwill
because FRS 36 does not permit reversing an impairment loss for goodwill.

(b) On 26 March 2014, the company issued 47,276,420 ordinary shares
pursuant to a renounceable non-underwritten rights issue of $0.09 each,
resulting in gross proceeds of $4,254,878. The share issue expenses
totalled $154,437. The net proceeds have been used for repayment of
bank borrowings and working capital purposes. The proceeds raised
from the rights issue have been fully utilised in accordance with the
intended purposes as disclosed in the Offer Information Statement dated
28 February 2014.
(c) On 26 May 2014, 25,000,000 ordinary shares of no par value were
issued at market price of $0.15 each and used as part of the purchase
consideration for the acquisition of TIEC Holdings Pte. Ltd. (Note 29A).
All shares issued during the reporting year rank pari passu in all respects with
and carry all rights similar to previously issued shares.
Capital management:
The objectives when managing capital are: to safeguard the reporting entity’s
ability to continue as a going concern, so that it can continue to provide returns
for owners and benefits for other stakeholders, and to provide an adequate
return to owners by pricing the sales commensurately with the level of risk.
The management sets the amount of capital to meet its requirements and the
risk taken. There were no changes in the approach to capital management
during the reporting year. The management manages the capital structure and
makes adjustments to it where necessary or possible in the light of changes
in conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. In order
to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the management may adjust the
amount of dividends paid to owners, return capital to owners, issue new shares,
or sell assets to reduce debt.
The management monitors the capital on the basis of the debt-to-adjusted
capital ratio. This ratio is calculated as net debt / adjusted capital. Net debt is
calculated as total borrowings less cash and cash equivalents. Adjusted capital
comprises all components of equity (i.e. share capital, and retained earnings).

Net debt:

Net debt 33,309,869 10,337,965
Total Equity 60,107,063 28,728,514
Debt-to-adjusted capital ratio 55.4% 36.0%
The unfavourable change as shown by the increase in debt-to-adjusted capital
ratio for the reporting year resulted primarily from increase in bank borrowings.
There was a favourable change with improved retained earnings and recognition
of revaluation reserve resulting from gains on property revaluation.
The ordinary shares of no par value which are fully paid carry no right to fixed
income. The holders of ordinary shares are entitled to receive dividends when
declared by the company. All ordinary shares carry one vote per share without
restrictions. In order to maintain its listing on the Singapore Exchange, the
company has to have share capital with at least a free float of at least 10% of
the shares. The company met the capital requirement on its initial listing and the
rules limiting treasury share purchases, meaning it will automatically continue to
satisfy that requirement, as it did throughout the year. Management receives a
report from the registrars frequently on substantial share interests showing the
non-free float and it demonstrated continuing compliance with the 10% limit
throughout the year.
The company is a Catalist company and has appointed a sponsor to comply
with the Catalist Rules and to facilitate certain corporate actions including rights
issues, placement of shares, company warrants or other convertible securities
for cash, major transactions, transactions requiring shareholders’ approval and
schemes of arrangement.

31. Financial Instruments: Information on Financial Risks (Continued)
31B. Financial Risk Management
The main purpose for holding or issuing financial instruments is to raise
and manage the finances for the entity’s operating, investing and financing
activities. The main risks arising from the entity’s financial instruments are
credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk comprising interest rate and currency
risk exposures. The management has certain practices for the management of
financial risks. The guidelines set up the short and long term objectives and
action to be taken in order to manage the financial risks. The guidelines include
the following:
1. Minimise interest rate, currency, credit and market risks for all kinds of
transactions.
2. Maximise the use of “natural hedge”: favouring as much as possible
the natural off-setting of sales and costs and payables and receivables
denominated in the same currency and therefore put in place hedging
strategies only for the excess balance. The same strategy is pursued
with regard to interest rate risk.
3. All financial risk management activities are carried out and monitored by
senior management staff.
4. All financial risk management activities are carried out following good
market practices.
5. When appropriate consideration is given to investing in shares or similar
instruments.
6. When appropriate consideration is given to entering into derivatives or
any other similar instruments solely for hedging purposes.

31. Financial Instruments: Information on Financial Risks (Continued)
With regard to derivatives, the policies include the following:
1. The management documents carefully all derivatives including the
relationship between them and the hedged items at inception and
throughout their life.
2. Ineffectiveness is recognised in profit or loss as soon as it arises.
3. Effectiveness is assessed at the inception of the hedge and at each end
of the reporting year ensuring that FRS 39 criteria are met.
4. Only financial institutions with acceptable credit ratings are used as
counterparties for derivatives.
31C. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The analyses of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial
recognition at fair value, grouped into Levels 1 to 3 are disclosed in the
relevant notes to the financial statements. These include both the significant
financial instruments stated at amortised cost and at fair value in the statement
of financial position. The carrying values of current financial instruments
approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturity of these instruments
and the disclosures of fair value are not made when the carrying amount of
current financial instruments is a reasonable approximation of the fair value.
31D. Credit Risk on Financial Assets
Financial assets that are potentially subject to concentrations of credit risk and
failures by counterparties to discharge their obligations in full or in a timely
manner consist principally of cash balances with banks, cash equivalents
and receivables. The maximum exposure to credit risk is: the total of the fair
value of the financial instruments; the maximum amount the entity could have
to pay if the guarantee is called on; and the full amount of any loan payable
commitment at the end of the reporting year. Credit risk on cash balances with
banks, derivative financial instruments and other financial assets is limited
because the counter-parties are entities with acceptable credit ratings. For
credit risk on receivables an ongoing credit evaluation is performed on the
financial condition of the debtors and a loss from impairment is recognised in
profit or loss. The exposure to credit risk is controlled by setting limits on the
exposure to individual customers and these are disseminated to the relevant
persons concerned and compliance is monitored by management. There is no
significant concentration of credit risk, as the exposure is spread over a large
number of counter-parties and customers unless otherwise disclosed in the
notes to the financial statements below.
Other than the cash restricted in use, cash and cash equivalents balances as
disclosed in Note 23 represent short-term deposits with a less than 90-day
maturity.
As part of the process of setting customer credit limits, different credit terms are
used. The average credit period generally granted to trade receivable customers
is about 30 to 90 days (2013: 30 to 90 days). But some customers take a longer
period to settle the amounts.

31E. Liquidity Risk (Continued)
The above amounts disclosed in the maturity analysis are the contractual
undiscounted cash flows and such undiscounted cash flows differ from the
amount included in the statement of financial position. When the counterparty
has a choice of when an amount is paid, the liability is included on the basis of
the earliest date on which it can be required to pay. At the end of the reporting
year no claims on the financial guarantees are expected.
The liquidity risk refers to the difficulty in meeting obligations associated with
financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset.
It is expected that all the liabilities will be settled at their contractual maturity.
The average credit period taken to settle trade payables is about 30 days (2013:
30 days). The other payables are with short-term durations. The classification
of the financial assets is shown in the statement of financial position as they
may be available to meet liquidity needs and no further analysis is deemed
necessary.
Financial guarantee contracts – For financial guarantee contracts the maximum
earliest period in which the guarantee would be called is used. At the end of the

financial liabilities. The average credit period taken to settle trade payables
is about 30 days (2013: 30 days). The other payables are with short-term
durations.
The liquidity risk refers to the difficulty in meeting obligations associated with
financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset.
It is expected that all the liabilities will be paid at their contractual maturity. In
order to meet such cash commitments the operating activity is expected to
generate sufficient cash inflows.
The classification of the financial assets is shown in the statement of financial
position as they may be available to meet liquidity needs and no further analysis
is deemed necessary.

Undrawn borrowing facilities 33,022,578 26,156,467
Unused bank guarantees 26,216,271 650,573
The undrawn borrowing facilities are available for operating activities and to
settle other commitments. Borrowing facilities are maintained to ensure funds
are available for the operations. A monthly schedule showing the maturity of
financial liabilities and unused bank facilities is provided to management to
assist them in monitoring the liquidity risk.

Sensitivity analysis:
Group
2014
$
2013
$
A hypothetical increase in interest rates by 50 basis
points would have an adverse effect on profit
before tax of 165,231 40,941
A hypothetical increase in interest rates by 100
basis points would have an adverse effect on
profit before tax of 330,461 81,883
A hypothetical increase in interest rates by 150
basis points would have an adverse effect on
profit before tax of 495,692 122,824
A hypothetical increase in interest rates by 200
basis points would have an adverse effect on
profit before tax of 660,922 163,766
The analysis has been performed separately for fixed interest rate and floating
interest rate financial instruments. The impact of a change in interest rates
on fixed interest rate financial instruments has been assessed in terms of
changing of their fair value. The impact of a change in interest rates on floating
interest rate financial instruments has been assessed in terms of changing of
their cash flows and therefore in terms of the impact on net expenses. The
hypothetical changes in basis points are not based on observable market data
(unobservable inputs).

34. Share-Based Payments
34A. Performance Share Plan
The company’s performance share plan, TEHO Performance Share Plan (the
“PSP”), was approved and adopted by the shareholders at the company’s
Extraordinary General Meeting held on 25 November 2011. The PSP is
administered by the Remuneration Committee (“RC”) with such discretion,
powers and duties as are conferred on it by the Board of Directors.
The PSP contemplates the award of fully-paid shares in the capital of the
company to participants after certain pre-determined benchmarks have been
met. The company believes that the PSP will be more effective and rewarding
than pure cash bonuses in motivating employees to work towards pre-
determined goals of the company.

34A. Performance Share Plan (Continued)
The PSP shall continue to be in force at the discretion of the RC, subject
to a maximum period of 10 years commencing from its adoption by the
shareholders and may continue beyond the stipulated period with the approval
of the shareholders by an ordinary resolution in general meeting and of any
relevant authorities which may then be required.
Under the rules of the PSP and at the absolute discretion of the RC, confirmed
full-time employees of the group who are of the age of 18 years and above,
and directors of the group who have contributed or will contribute to the
success and the development of the group are eligible to participate in the
PSP. However, participation in the PSP by the directors who are also controlling
shareholders and their associates are subject to the approval by independent
shareholders of the company.
The total number of shares that may be issued or are issuable pursuant to the
granting of the awards under the PSP, when added to the aggregate number
of shares that are issued or are issuable in respect of such other share-based
incentive schemes of the company (if any), shall not exceed 15% (or such
other percentage as may be prescribed or permitted from time to time by the
SGX-ST) of the total number of issued ordinary shares of the company on the
day immediately preceding the relevant award date.
There were no awards granted under the PSP by the company or any
corporation in the group since its inception and during the reporting year.
There were no shares issued during the reporting year by virtue of the exercise
of awards to take up unissued shares of the company or any corporation in the
group.
There were no unissued shares under the PSP in the company or any
corporation in the group as at the end of the reporting year.

Explanatory Notes:
1. Mr Lim See Hoe will, upon re-election as a Director of the Company, remain as
the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company.
2. Mr Terrance Tan Kong Hwa will retire as a Director of the Company at the
conclusion of the forthcoming AGM. Upon Mr Tan’s retirement, he will cease
to be the Chairman of the Nominating Committee and a member of the Audit
and Remuneration Committees of the Company. His replacement for each
Committee will be announced in due course.
3. Ms Joanne Khoo Su Nee will, upon re-election as a Director of the Company,
remain as the Chairman of the Remuneration Committee and a member of the
Audit and Nominating Committees of the Company, and will be considered
independent for the purposes of Rule 704(7) of the Catalist Rules.
4. The Ordinary Resolution 7 proposed in item 8 above is to approve the
appointment of KPMG LLP as auditors of the Company in place of the retiring
auditors, RSM Chio Lim LLP, to hold office until the conclusion of the next
AGM of the Company and to authorise the Directors to fix their remuneration.
An appendix is attached to this annual report to provide shareholders with
information relating to the proposed change of auditors to be tabled at the AGM
(“Appendix”).
(a) The outgoing auditors, RSM Chio Lim LLP, have confirmed by way of a
letter dated 1 October 2014 that they are not aware of any professional
reasons why the new auditors, KPMG LLP, should not accept
appointment as auditors of the Company;
(b) The Company confirms that there were no disagreements with the
outgoing auditors, RSM Chio Lim LLP, on accounting treatments within
the last 12 months;
(c) The Company confirms that, other than as set out in the Appendix, it is
not aware of any circumstances connected with the proposed change of
auditors that should be brought to the attention of shareholders of the
Company;
(d) The specific reason for the change of auditors is that RSM Chio Lim
LLP has served as auditors of the Company for seven consecutive
audits since the financial year ended 30 June 2008. The Directors are
of the view that a change of auditors would be a good corporate
governance practice and would enable the Company to benefit from
fresh perspectives and views of another professional audit firm and
further enhance the value of the audit. The proposed change of auditors
is neither due to the dismissal of RSM Chio Lim LLP nor RSM Chio Lim
LLP declining to continue to serve as auditors of the Company. Please
refer to the Appendix for further details; and
(e) The Company confirms that it is in compliance with Rules 712 and 715
of the Catalist Rules in relation to the appointment of KPMG LLP as
auditors of the Company.
5. The Ordinary Resolution 8 proposed in item 9 above, if passed, will empower
the Directors of the Company from the date of this AGM until the date of the
next AGM is to be held or is required by law to be held, whichever is earlier, to
allot and issue Shares and convertible securities in the capital of the Company.
The aggregate number of Shares (including Shares to be made in pursuance
of Instruments made or granted pursuant to this Ordinary Resolution) to be
allotted and issued shall not exceed 100% of the total number of issued Shares
(excluding treasury shares) at the time of passing this Ordinary Resolution. For
issue of Shares (including Shares to be made in pursuance of Instruments made
or granted pursuant to this Ordinary Resolution) other than on a pro rata basis
to all shareholders, the aggregate number of Shares (including Shares to be
made in pursuance of Instruments made or granted pursuant to this Ordinary
Resolution) to be allotted and issued shall not exceed 50% of the total number
of issued Shares (excluding treasury shares) at the time of passing this Ordinary
Resolution. This authority will, unless previously revoked or varied at a general
meeting, expire at the next AGM.

Dear Sir/Madam
1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 Reference is made to the notice of AGM as set out on page 85 to 88 of the
Annual Report of the Company dated 16 October 2014 convening the AGM to
be held on 31 October 2014.
1.2 The proposed Ordinary Resolution 7 in the notice of AGM relates to the
Proposed Change of Auditors.
1.3 The purpose of this Appendix is to provide Shareholders with information
pertaining to and the rationale for the Proposed Change of Auditors, and to
seek the relevant Shareholders’ approval in respect of the same at the AGM,
the notice of which is set out in the Annual Report.
2. RATIONALE FOR THE PROPOSED CHANGE OF AUDITORS
RSM Chio Lim LLP (“RSM”) has served as auditors of the Company for seven
consecutive audits since the financial year ended 30 June 2008. The directors
of the Company (the “Board” or “Directors”) are of the view that a change of
auditors would be a good corporate governance practice and would enable the
Company to benefit from fresh perspectives and views of another professional
audit firm and further enhance the value of the audit.
The audit committee of the Company (the “AC”) has reviewed and deliberated
on the proposals received from three audit firms, taking into consideration
factors such as the adequacy of the resources and experience of the audit firm
to be selected, the audit engagement partner to be assigned to the audit, the
firm’s other audit engagements, the size and complexity of the Company and
its subsidiaries, and the number and experience of supervisory and professional
staff to be assigned to the audit. After evaluation, the AC recommended
that KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) be selected for the proposed appointment having
considered the suitability of KPMG to meet the audit requirements of the Group
and the requirements of Rules 712(1) and 712(2) of Section B: Rules of Catalist
of the SGX-ST Listing Manual (“Catalist Rules”).
The audit services to be provided by KPMG would conform to Singapore
Standards on Auditing, which would have a scope comparable to that currently
provided by RSM.
The Directors have taken into account the AC’s recommendation, including
the factors considered in their evaluation, and are satisfied that KPMG will be
able to meet the audit requirements of the Company and that Rules 712(1) and
712(2) of the Catalist Rules have been complied with. As such, the Directors
accepted the AC’s recommendation for the appointment of KPMG in place of
RSM, subject to the approval of the Shareholders at the AGM.
In this regard, the Proposed Change of Auditors has been discussed with RSM
and RSM has given notice to the Directors of their withdrawal of consent to
act as auditors on 15 September 2014, and KPMG has given their consent to
be appointed as auditors on 2 October 2014, subject to the approval of the
Shareholders at the AGM. The withdrawal to act as auditors of RSM and
the appointment of KPMG will take effect upon and subject to obtaining the
approval of the Shareholders at the AGM.
Pursuant to Section 205 of the Companies Act, Cap. 50, a copy of the letter of
nomination from a shareholder of the Company, nominating the appointment of
KPMG as auditors of the Company in place of RSM is found on page 92 of the
Annual Report.
In accordance with the requirements of Rule 712(3) of the Catalist Rules:
(a) The outgoing auditors, RSM, have confirmed by way of a letter dated
1 October 2014 (“Professional Clearance Letter”) that they are not
aware of any professional reasons why the new auditors, KPMG, should
not accept appointment as auditors of the Company;
(b) The Company confirms that there were no disagreements with the
outgoing auditors, RSM, on accounting treatments within the last 12
months;
(c) The Company confirms that, other than as set out in this Appendix, it is
not aware of any circumstances connected with the Proposed Change of
Auditors that should be brought to the attention of Shareholders;

(d) The specific reason for the change of auditors is that RSM has served
as auditors of the Company for seven consecutive audits since the
financial year ended 30 June 2008. The Directors are of the view that
a change of auditors would be a good corporate governance practice
and would enable the Company to benefit from fresh perspectives and
views of another professional audit firm and further enhance the value
of the audit. The Proposed Change of Auditors is neither due to the
dismissal of RSM nor RSM declining to continue to serve as auditors of
the Company; and
(e) The Company confirms that it is in compliance with Rules 712 and 715
of the Catalist Rules in relation to the appointment of KPMG as auditors
of the Company.
The Directors wish to express their appreciation for the past services rendered
by RSM.
3. REQUIREMENT PURSUANT TO RULE 715 OF THE CATALIST RULES
Subject to Shareholders’ approval of the Proposed Change of Auditors, KPMG
will become the auditors of the Company in place of RSM. KPMG will also be
the auditors for all Singapore-incorporated subsidiaries of the Company. The
following foreign-incorporated subsidiaries of the Company will continue to be
audited by suitable auditing firms as below:
Name of subsidiaries Country of incorporation Auditing firm
TEHO International
(USA), LLC
United States of America Smith Leonard PLLC
TEHO (Shanghai) Co.,
Ltd.
People’s Republic of China Ruihua Certified Public
Accountants
TEHO EuROPE B.V. The Netherlands INZICHT Accountants &
Belastingadviseurs B.V.
As at the date of this Appendix, the Company does not have any significant
associated companies.
Accordingly, Rules 712 and 715 of the Catalist Rules are complied with.
4. INFORMATION ON KPMG AND THE ENGAGEMENT PARTNER

change of auditors to KPMG, having satisfied itself of the suitability of KPMG to
meet the audit requirements of the Group and ensuring compliance with Rules
712 and 715 of the Catalist Rules.
