The overall macro conditions have not improved and the level of uncertainties have impacted the operations of key operating units COMMENDABLE PROFIT GROWTH Despite the difficult operating environment, the financial year under review continued to produce commendable results for the Group. The increase in turnover is principally contributed by the increase in contribution from WZS KenKeong Sdn Bhd (WZS KenKeong), the civil engineering and construction subsidiary of RM257.6 million as compared with its preceding year’s turnover of only RM155.0 million. The oil and gas subsidiary, Misi Setia Oil & Gas Sdn Bhd (Misi) contributed a turnover of RM113.9 million and the balance turnover was contributed by the manufacturing and other businesses. The Group’s profit after tax achieved a growth of 12.7% to RM23.0 million from RM20.4 million in the previous financial year. GROUP’S FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE For the financial year ended 31 August 2016, the Group generated RM465.9 million in turnover as compared with RM351.4 million for the preceding financial year. The Group’s turnover did not include any contribution from the mining division as the results of the associated companies were only equity accounted. The major contributors to the Group’s bottom line were bauxite mining and civil engineering and construction with a contribution of RM9.7 million and RM8.7 million, respectively. Whilst the oil and gas division contributed RM3.3 million, the manufacturing and other businesses collectively turned around and posted net profits of RM1.6 million as compared to a loss of RM6.1 million in the preceding year. The Group’s order book stands at RM931.8 million as at 31 August 2016. 15 WZsatu inner.qxp_Layout 1 12/28/16 12:23 PM Page 16 16 WZ SATU BERHAD (666098-X) CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT (Cont’d) OPERATIONAL REVIEWS AND PROSPECTS Civil Engineering and Construction Division The Group’s civil engineering and construction arm, WZS KenKeong was impacted by the intense competition inherent in this industry. After laying the foundation with talent pool and investment in plants and machineries, it is poised to taking on greater challenges and bigger ticket items. The existing jobs in hand will sustain WZS KenKeong for the next two to three years. Having said that, the Group is confident that its order book will grow well beyond the run-off rate. Presently, all our jobs are infrastructure related works and we are not involved in the construction of buildings. The Group has entered into a collaboration agreement with UEM Group Berhad and has also proposed the implementation of the Central Spine Road project to the government. The Group is optimistic that the collaboration with UEM Group will be successful. Oil and Gas Industry Division The continued weakness in the price of crude oil has severely affected the entire oil and gas industry. Misi, being an onshore oil and gas industry service provider, was not as highly affected by the recent turmoil in oil prices as compare with that of the offshore oil and gas players. Misi’s investment in the Automated Pipe Spooling fabrication plant in Gebeng, Kuantan has kicked off with the maiden contract to provide pipe spool prefabrication work to The Refinery and Petrochemical Integrated Development (RAPID) Package 4 - Amine Recovery Units, Sulfur Recovery Units, Sour Water Stripping Units, Liquid Sulfur Storage Units and Sulfur Solidification Units. This facility has enhanced Misi’s position in providing a more comprehensive suite of services and enabled Misi to strategically position itself to fill the vacuum in the pipe spooling capacity in the local market. Misi continued to perform well in the areas of products and services for valves and metering for the oil and gas industry. Presently, Misi holds the agency for an extensive metering, valve and related measuring solutions from GE Sensing, IMI CCI, Cameron and Scott Safety. Given the current circumstances, Misi’s performance is commendable and the Group is optimistic that it will contribute meaningfully to the Group’s profitability going forward.

Mining Division Manufacturing and Other Businesses The Group’s mining operations through its associate companies were adversely affected by the moratorium imposed by the regulatory authorities. The after tax contribution from this division fell sharply to RM9.7million from RM18.5 million in the preceding year. The Group’s bright steel manufacturing business in Malaysia continued to operate under difficult market conditions. Despite the turnaround in the results, the Group remains cautious on the outlook of our manufacturing operations in the coming year. Despite the uncertainties surrounding the moratorium, the Group is optimistic that issues resulting in the moratorium, given time, will be resolved. Hence, the Group is optimistic of the mining division's continued significant contribution to its profitability in the foreseeable future. The Group’s power generation business under WZS Powergen Sdn Bhd has secured orders for supplying standby mobile diesel generators to Sabah Electricity Sdn Bhd and operationally turnaround. The Group has realigned its businesses that require intensive capital and long gestation period with the disposal, amongst others, of its bright steel manufacturing operations in Indonesia. The disposals of these businesses are to optimise the Group’s return on assets deployed and shareholders’ value.

During the visits, we conducted various activities including birthday celebrations with the orphans, “gotongroyong” to clean and spruce the orphanage and settlement and provided basic assistance. The Group has proposed a final dividend of 2 sen per share and a special dividend of 1 sen per share to the shareholders. This final dividend of 2 sen per share represents a pay-out of 30% of its profit after taxation and the special dividend of 1 sen per share represents a pay-out of an additional 15% of its profit after taxation. The Group is committed to its corporate social responsibility and going forward, we will continue to engage in corporate social responsibility initiatives. Cumulatively, this is well above the dividend policy of distributing 20% to 35% of the Group’s consolidated profit after taxation and non-controlling interests in respect of any financial year to its shareholders. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT I wish to extend a warm welcome to Datuk Ahmad Nizam Bin Salleh as an Independent Non-Executive Director. The Group will stand to benefit from his vast experience in the oil and gas industry.

WZsatu inner.qxp_Layout 1 12/28/16 12:23 PM Page 23 Annual Report 2016 23 Corporate Governance Statement The Board of Directors of WZ Satu Berhad (the Board) continues to uphold its commitments to the highest standard of corporate governance and best practices that are set out in the Malaysian Code on Corporate Governance 2012 (the Code) issued by the Securities Commission Malaysia and provisions in the Main Market Listing Requirements of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad (MMLR) throughout the Group. The Board will continue to review and enhance the Group’s corporate governance framework to ensure its relevance and ability in meeting future challenges in its course to enhance shareholders value and establish long term sustainable value for other stakeholders. The Board is pleased to report below on the extent to which the principles and best practices of the Code were applied throughout the financial year ended 31 August 2016. PRINCIPLE 1: ESTABLISHING CLEAR ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE BOARD THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS It is the overall governance responsibilities of the Board to lead and control the Group. Amongst others, these responsibilities include charting the strategic direction of the Group and supervising its affairs to ensure its success; implementation of suitable and effective system of internal control and risk management; and ensuring compliance with the relevant laws, regulations, guidelines and directives. Clear Roles and Responsibilities of the Board The Board has established clear functions reserved for its members and those delegated to management. This allocation of responsibilities reflects the dynamic nature of the relationship necessary for the Group to adapt to changing circumstances. Key matters such as approval of interim and annual financial results, acquisitions and disposals, investments, as well as material agreements are reserved for the Board, while a capable and experienced management team is put in charge to oversee the day-to-day operations of the Group. In line with the practice of good corporate governance, the Board has established and implemented various processes to assist members of the Board in the discharge of their roles and responsibilities. The Board’s roles and responsibilities include the following: (a) reviewing and adopting strategic plans for the Group; (b) overseeing the conduct of the Group’s businesses to evaluate whether the businesses are being properly managed; (c) reviewing principal risks and ensuring the implementation of appropriate systems of internal control to manage risks and adoption of relevant mitigation measures; (d) reviewing the adequacy and integrity of the Group’s internal control systems and management information systems, including systems for compliance with applicable laws, regulations, rules, directives and guidelines; (e) reviewing and approving succession planning, including appointing, training, compensating and where appropriate replacing key principal officers; and (f) developing and implementing investors’ relations programmes and shareholder communication policy for the Group. Board Committees To ensure effectiveness in discharging its responsibilities, the Board delegates specific powers to other Board Committees as follows: (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) (f) Nomination Committee; Remuneration Committee; Audit Committee; Shariah Advisory Committee; Long Term Incentive Plan Committee; and Investment Committee. WZsatu inner.qxp_Layout 1 12/28/16 12:23 PM Page 24 24 WZ SATU BERHAD (666098-X) Corporate Governance Statement (CONT’D) Board Diversity The Board recognises that board diversity is an essential element contributing to the sustainable development of the Group and does not discriminate on the basis of ethnicity, age, gender, nationality, political affiliation, religious affiliation, marital status, education background or physical ability. There is no specific target in the composition in terms of gender, age or ethnic of its Board members or members of Senior Management. The Board acknowledges the recommendation of the Code on gender diversity but believes that the overriding factors in selection of a Director must be based on skill, experience, competency and wealth of knowledge, while taking into consideration diversity of the Board. The Group had established a Board Diversity Policy to formalise its diversity approach as above. Board Charter The Board Charter which broadly sets out the Board’s governance process and Board-Management relationship, has been reviewed and adopted by the Board. The Board Charter sets out, among others, the following: (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) (f) (g) (h) (i) the principal role of the Board; the functions, roles, responsibilities and powers of the Board; the functions, roles, responsibilities and powers of its various committees; processes and procedures for convening Board Meetings; Board’s access to information and professional advice; continuing development and training; succession plan; the role of Secretary; and division of authority between the Board and the Management. The Board Charter was last reviewed and updated on 8 December 2016 in accordance with the needs of the Group and any new regulations to ensure its relevance. Code of Conduct The Group established appropriate standards of business conduct and ethical behaviour to govern the exercise of the Directors’ duties and responsibilities as Directors of the Company in order to uphold good corporate integrity. The Code of Conduct sets out the general principles and standards of business conduct and ethical behaviour for the Directors in the performance and exercise of their responsibilities as Directors of the Company or when representing the Group and includes the expectation of professionalism and trustworthiness from the Directors. Whistle Blowing Policy The policy provides an avenue for any Director, officer, employee and members of the public to report instances of unethical, unlawful or undesirable conduct on a confidential basis without fear of intimidation or reprisal. Nothing in this policy shall interfere with other established operational policies and processes. All disclosures pursuant to this policy are to be made to an Independent Non-Executive Director. The Board shall be apprised of disclosure matters which are serious in nature or of grave repercussions. Confidential reports can be channeled online via this email address: [email protected]. Sustainability Policy The Board has formalised the Group’s strategies on promoting sustainability. The Board and the Management are committed to continually improving the integration of sustainability into working environment and business processes, together with the accountability and transparency in the sustainability performance. WZsatu inner.qxp_Layout 1 12/28/16 12:23 PM Page 25 Annual Report 2016 25 Corporate Governance Statement (CONT’D) In order to operate with sustainability, the key impact areas are to ensure operations and services are safe for the employees, customers and that environmental quality considerations are incorporated into the Group’s daily business activities which are undertaken and accountable by every employee; create an inspiring workplace that helps to build a diverse work force which contributes to highest potential and commits to a harassment free working environment, where every employee is treated fairly and with respect; and to adhere to the requirements of all laws and regulatory requirements, standards and best practices to which the Group subscribes and establish and adopt high ethical values and ensure these practices are upheld across the business. The Board Diversity Policy, Board Charter, Code of Conduct, Whistle Blowing Policy and Sustainability Policy are published on the Company’s corporate website at www.wzs.my. Supply and Access to Information The Board, in order to enable them to discharge their duties effectively, has full and unrestricted access to the Management and Company Secretaries for all information pertaining to the businesses and corporate affairs of the Group. If need arises, the Board may also seek appropriate external independent professional advice at the Group’s expense. Prior to Board or Board Committee meetings, the agenda, minutes of previous meeting and board papers are circulated to the Directors to allow sufficient time to ensure that they receive the necessary information in advance so that they can review, consider and deliberate on the matters, and where necessary, obtain further information to facilitate informed decision making. Qualified and Competent Company Secretary The Board is supported by experienced and competent Company Secretaries in discharging its duties and responsibilities. The Board receives regular advice, updates and notices from the Company Secretaries to ensure compliance with applicable laws, regulations and corporate governance matters. The Company Secretaries attend and ensure that all Board and Board Committee meetings are properly convened and all deliberations and decisions are properly minuted and kept. They are also responsible in ensuring that Board’s policies and procedures are followed, and the applicable statutory and regulatory requirements are observed. PRINCIPLE 2: STRENGTHENING THE BOARD’S COMPOSITION Composition and Balance of the Board The Board has fourteen (14) members comprising six (6) Executive Directors, six (6) Independent Non-Executive Directors and two (2) Alternate Directors. The present composition of the Board has the requisite number of Independent Non-Executive Directors as prescribed by the MMLR to facilitate effective and independent decision making and balance of power. The Board Members have diverse backgrounds and experience in various fields. Collectively, these Board members bring their strength to bear on issues of oversight, strategy, performance, control, resource allocation and integrity. The Board is also well balanced as both the major and minority shareholders are also represented. The Chairman of the Board is presently held by an Executive Director and in such instances, the Code recommends that the Board composition should consist of a majority of Independent Directors. Despite the Chairman being an Executive member of the Board, the Board considers its current size adequate given the existing scope and nature of the Group’s operations. The Board takes comfort in the presence of Independent Non-Executive Directors with distinguished records and credentials to ensure that there are independent views and judgments. The Independent Non-Executive Directors vocalise their concerns whenever necessary to ensure proper checks and balances are in place in Board decisions and implementation of policies. The Board is satisfied that notwithstanding Tengku Dato’ Sri’s Executive Chairmanship, he has shown deep commitment, impartial leadership, and abilities in discharging his duties effectively. In order to ensure effective conduct of the Board, the Board conducts its proceedings in accordance with the statutory requirements and best practices. The Board has also appointed a Deputy Chairman of the Board, who is a Senior Independent Non-Executive Director. During the financial year, the Board had also appointed an additional Independent Non-Executive Director to reinforce independence and corporate governance. WZsatu inner.qxp_Layout 1 12/28/16 12:23 PM Page 26 26 WZ SATU BERHAD (666098-X) Corporate Governance Statement (CONT’D) In addition, the Board has identified Dato’ Amin Rafie Bin Othman, the Deputy Chairman cum Senior Independent Non-Executive Director to whom concerns may be conveyed by shareholders and the general public. Dato’ Amin Rafie Bin Othman is also the Chairman of the Nomination Committee and Remuneration Committee and a member of the Audit Committee. The profiles of the members of the Board, are set out on pages 7 to 13 of this Annual Report. Criteria for Recruitment The Nomination Committee has the responsibility of evaluating, proposing and recommending new candidates for appointment to the Board and Committees to the Board. In reviewing and recommending to the Board any new appointment of a Director, the Nomination Committee considers: (a) age, expertise, experience, professionalism, integrity, capability and such other factors which would contribute to the Board’s collective skills; (b) composition requirements for the Board and Committees; and (c) the number of directorships held by the candidate in other public listed companies i.e., not more than five (5). This ensures that their commitments, resources and time are focused on the affairs of the Group to enable them to discharge their duties effectively and to comply with the MMLR. The process flow for the appointment of a new director is as follows: Identification of Candidates Evaluation of Suitability Deliberation by NC Recommendation to the Board At the time of appointment, the Board shall obtain the Directors’ commitment to devote sufficient time to carry out their responsibilities. Directors are required to notify the Chairman before accepting any new directorship and they are aware of this requirement. In addition, they are required to indicate the time expected to be spent on the new appointment. Board Performance Evaluation and Review The Board carried out an annual assessment on the overall effectiveness of the Board as a whole, its Board committees and individual Directors. The objective is to improve the Board’s effectiveness by identifying gaps, addressing weaknesses and maximising strengths. Using a combination of self and peer assessments, Directors obtain feedback on their level of effectiveness on various performance aspects via a series of questions and answers. Responses from the Directors were analysed and presented to the Board, and areas requiring improvements are addressed by the Board and Management. Re-election and Re-appointment of Directors All newly appointed Directors are subject to re-election by the shareholders at the next Annual General Meeting (AGM) in accordance with the Company’s Articles of Association (the Articles).

All Committees function within and in accordance with clearly defined terms of reference that were approved by the Board. These Committees have unrestricted authority to examine issues and submit reports of their findings to the Board. As the Committees have no authority to make decisions on matters reserved for the Board, the recommendations would be deliberated by the Board for decisions. The responsibilities, compositions and activities of the abovementioned Committees are described below: (a) Nomination Committee The Nomination Committee is empowered by the Board among others to recommend to the Board the right candidate with the necessary skills, experience and competencies to be filled in the Board and Board Committees, re-election and re-appointment of Directors. The Nomination Committee also assesses the effectiveness of the Board as a whole, the Board Committees and the contribution of each individual Director, including Independent Non-Executive Directors on an annual basis. The Directors are provided with a questionnaire to carry out the assessments with absolute anonymity and are based on their competence, capability, time commitment, integrity, participation and contribution in Board and committees. The results are then tabulated and presented to the Nomination Committee for its review and recommendation to the Board for notation. A summarised version of the results is circulated to each Director for their information. The criteria that are used in the assessments of the Board/Committees include the required mix of skills and experience and the effectiveness of the Board/Committees. During the financial year under review, the Nomination Committee held two (2) meetings to deliberate and report to the Board on the following: • • • • • • • • review of the profile and nomination of new Board member; assessment of the independence of independent directors; review of the Directors who were due for re-election by rotation and re-appointment; review of the retention of independent directors whose tenure have exceeded nine (9) years; review of the Board’s representation and the required mix of skills and experience and assessing the effectiveness of the Board as a whole; review of the current size and composition of the Board; review and deliberation on the findings and outcomes of the assessments of the Board, Board Committees and Directors; and review of the term of office and performance of the Audit Committee and each of its members.

Remuneration Policy The Board believes that appropriate and competitive remuneration is important to attract, retain and motivate Directors of the necessary calibre, expertise and experience to lead the Group. In line with this philosophy, remuneration for the Executive Directors is aligned to individual and corporate performance. For Non-Executive Directors, the fees are set based on the responsibilities shouldered by the respective Directors. Individual Directors do not participate in determining their own remuneration package. The Remuneration Committee recommends the policy for assessing the compensation package for the Executive Directors. It also reviews and recommends to the Board for approval the remuneration packages and other employment conditions for the Executive Directors. The remuneration of Executive Directors is made up of basic salaries, monetary incentives and fringe benefits; and is linked to the achievement of corporate performance targets. Salaries for Executive Directors consist of both fixed (i.e. base salary) and variable (performance-based incentive) remuneration components. The remuneration levels of Executive Directors are structured to enable the Company to attract and retain the most qualified Executive Board members. The Company may provide competitive benefits to Executive Directors, such as a fully expensed car or cash alternative in lieu of car, company driver, fuel expenses, private medical insurance and life insurance. Allowances relating to business expenses (i.e. entertainment and travel) incurred are reimbursed such that no additional compensation is given to the Executive Directors. The remuneration of Non-Executive Directors is made up of Directors’ fees and meeting allowances. The level of remuneration for Non-Executive Directors shall reflect the experience and level of responsibilities undertaken by the Non-Executive Director concerned. The remuneration of a Non-Executive Director shall not be based on commission, the percentage of profits, or turnover. Non-Executive Directors are not entitled to receive performance-based bonuses nor participate in short-term and/or long-term incentive plans.

In order to uphold the independence of Independent Directors, the Board has adopted the following recommendations of the Code as the Board’s policies: (a) subject to the Board’s justification and shareholders’ approval, tenure of Independent Directors should not exceed a cumulative year of nine (9) years; and (b) undertake annual assessment of independence of its Independent Directors based on a set of criteria established by the Nomination Committee focusing on events that would affect the ability of Independent Directors to continue bringing independent and objective judgment for board deliberation and the regulatory definition of Independent Directors and apply these criteria upon admission, annually and when any new interest or relationship develops. Based on the annual assessment carried out, the Nomination Committee and the Board are satisfied that Dato’ Amin Rafie Bin Othman and Dato’ Yeong Kok Hee, who have served the Board for more than nine (9) years to-date, remain objective and independent in expressing their views and in participating in deliberations and decision makings of the Board and Board Committees.

The Board concurred that the continuous contributions of Dato’ Amin Rafie Bin Othman and Dato’ Yeong Kok Hee are beneficial to the Board and the Company as a whole. In view thereof, the Board recommends and supports their retention as Independent Directors of the Company which will be tabled for shareholders’ approval at the forthcoming Twelfth Annual General Meeting of the Company.

The Group’s External Auditors are invited to attend the Audit Committee meetings when deemed necessary. During the year, the Audit Committee has met with the External Auditors on 22 October 2015 and 21 July 2016 without the presence of the management to review the scope and adequacy of the audit process, the financial statements and their audit findings that may require the attention of the Audit Committee and Board. The Audit Committee, as part of its review processes, has obtained assurance from the External Auditors confirming that they have in place policies on rotation (every 5 years) for partners of an audit engagement to ensure objectivity, independence and integrity of the audit and declared their independence throughout the conduct of the audit engagement in accordance with the terms of all relevant professional and regulatory requirements. Annually, the Audit Committee also reviews the appointment, performance and remuneration of the External Auditors including audit and non-audit services, to ensure that the independence and objectivity of the External Auditors are not compromised, before recommending them to the shareholders for re-appointment in the Annual General Meeting. The Group has adopted a Policy on the Provision of Non-Audit Services by External Auditors which governs the circumstances under which contracts for the provision of non-audit services can be entered into and procedures that must be followed by the External Auditors. The Audit Committee has ensured that the External Auditors are a suitable service provider of the non-audit services based on their skills and experience. The Audit Committee also considered the nature of the non-audit services and the related fee levels (both individually and in aggregate) relative to the audit fee to ensure independence of the External Auditors.

It is not the Group’s objective to eliminate risk totally, but to review, prioritise and manage the risks involved in all the Group’s activities and to balance between the cost of managing and treating risks, and the anticipated benefits that will be derived. Further details of the Group’s state of risk management and internal control systems are reported in the Statement on Risk Management and Internal Control on pages 41 to 43.

WZsatu inner.qxp_Layout 1 12/28/16 12:23 PM Page 41 Annual Report 2016 41 Statement on Risk Management and Internal Control INTRODUCTION The Board of Directors (the Board) is pleased to present its Statement on Risk Management and Internal Control for the financial year ended 31 August 2016. This Statement is prepared pursuant to paragraph 15.26(b) of the Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad (Bursa Securities) Main Market Listing Requirements (MMLR). The Board is also guided by the latest “Statement on Risk Management and Internal Control - Guidelines for Directors of Listed Issuers” issued by the Task Force on Internal Control with the support and endorsement of the Bursa Securities and Principle 6 of the Malaysian Code on Corporate Governance 2012 (the Code). BOARD’S RESPONSIBILITIES The Board affirms its responsibility to maintain a sound system of internal control and risk management to safeguard the Group’s investments and assets. The system will provide reasonable assurance in ensuring the effectiveness and efficiency of operations, reliability of financial reporting and compliance with applicable laws and regulations. However, due to inherent limitations of any system of internal control and risk management, it should be noted that the system is designed to manage rather than to eliminate the risk of failure to achieve the objectives. Therefore, any system of internal control for that matter could only provide a reasonable and not complete assurance against any material misstatement or omission. The Board is assisted by the Internal Auditors and Management to identify, approve, and implement policies and procedures on risk management and internal control. Management identifies and evaluates the risks faced by the Group and designs, implements and monitors an appropriate system of internal control in line with the policies approved by the Board. The Board with the assistance of the Audit Committee and Internal Auditors, RSM Corporate Consulting (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd (RSM), continuously review existing risks and identify new risks that the Group faces. In addition, the management action plans that manage such risks are also being reviewed to ensure its adequacy. RISK MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK Risk management is regarded by the Board as part of the business operation activities of the Group. It is the Board’s priority to ensure that the uncertainties and investment risks in new business ventures are managed in order to safeguard the interest of the shareholders. Collectively, the Board oversees and reviews the conduct of the Group’s businesses while the Executive Directors and Management execute measures and controls to ensure that risks are effectively managed. The other key elements of the systems of internal control and the Board’s review mechanisms are as follows: (a) establishment of the Nomination, Remuneration, Long Term Incentive Plan, Shariah and Investment Committees, apart from the Audit Committee; (b) documentation of written policies and procedures for certain key operational areas; (c) limits of Management’s approvals and authorities; (d) periodic review of Group’s management accounts and performance analyses by Executive Directors and Management; and (e) organisation structure with well-defined delegation of responsibilities and accountabilities for the Group’s operating units. Besides reviewing the systems of internal control, the Audit Committee also reviews the financial information and reports produced by Management. With Management’s consultation, the Board and the Audit Committee deliberate the integrity of the financial results, Annual Report and audited financial statements before presenting these financial information to the shareholders, investors and public. WZsatu inner.qxp_Layout 1 12/28/16 12:23 PM Page 42 42 WZ SATU BERHAD (666098-X) Statement on Risk Management and Internal Control (CONT’D) In accordance with the Statement on Risk Management and Internal Control - Guidelines for Directors of Listed Issuers issued by Bursa Securities, the Management is responsible to the Board for: (a) continuously reviewing the risk profile and action plan to be undertaken to manage the principle risks relevant to the businesses of the Group; (b) designing, implementing and monitoring the risk management framework in accordance with the Group’s strategic vision and overall risk appetite; and (c) identifying changes to risks or emerging risks, taking actions as appropriate and promptly bringing these to the attention of the Board. The Board has received assurances from the Executive Chairman, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer that, to the best of their knowledge, the Group’s risk management and system of internal control, in all material aspects, are operating effectively. INTERNAL AUDIT FUNCTION The Audit Committee engaged RSM, an external professional firm to provide independent internal audit services to the Group. RSM provides the Audit Committee with quarterly reports of their audit findings and observations together with recommendations and management action plans to enhance the systems of internal control. The Audit Committee reviews the internal audit reports and reports to the Board on significant control issues noted. A follow-up audit is carried out to ascertain if management actions are effectively implemented. The principal roles of the Internal Auditors are to assist the Audit Committee in discharging its duties and responsibilities in respect of reviewing the adequacy and effectiveness of the internal control system, risk management framework, governance and control processes. OTHER RISK MITIGATION PROCESSES The Board has also adopted various other processes to complement the system of internal control which include: (a) the establishment of Board Charter and Code of Conduct which assist Directors and employees of the Group in defining the minimal ethical standards and conducts in discharging their responsibilities; and (b) the implementation of a whistle-blowing policy and procedures to provide a channel for legitimate concerns to be raised by employees or other stakeholders to the Senior Independent Non-Executive Director and the Audit Committee. BOARD ASSURANCE AND LIMITATION The Board confirms that there is an ongoing process for identifying, evaluating and managing significant risks faced by the Group. While the Board reiterates that the risk management and systems of internal control should be continuously improved in line with evolving business developments, it should also be noted that all risk management systems and systems of internal control can only manage rather than eliminate the risks of the failure to achieve business objectives. Therefore, these systems of internal control and risk management in the Group can only provide reasonable but not absolute assurance against material misstatements, frauds and losses. The Group has invested in associated companies, SE Satu Sdn. Bhd.,SE Satu Pelangi Sdn. Bhd. and WZS Technologies Sdn.Bhd.. While the Group has board representatives in the associated companies, the Group does not have management control in their operations. Accordingly, the associated companies have not been dealt with and considered for the purposes of this Statement.

Their assurance engagement was performed pursuant to the scope set out in Recommended Practice Guide 5 (Revised) (RPG 5) : Guidance for Auditors on Engagements to Report on the Statement on Risk Management and Internal Control issued by Malaysia Institute of Accountants. Based on their procedures performed, the External Auditors have reported to the Board that nothing has come to their attention that causes them to believe that this Statement is not prepared, in all material respect, in accordance with disclosure required by paragraphs 41 and 42 of the Statement on Risk Management and Internal Control: Guidance for Directors of Listed Issuers to be set out, nor it is factually inaccurate. RPG 5 does not require the External Auditors to consider whether this Statement covers all risks and controls, or to form an opinion on the adequacy and effectiveness of the Group’s risk and control system. BOARD’S CONCLUSION For the financial year under review, no significant control failures, weaknesses that result in material losses and require disclosure were identified. The Board is of the view that the systems of internal control and risk management, procedures and processes in place are reasonable, adequate and effective in safeguarding the assets of the Group, interests of shareholders and other stakeholders. This Statement has been approved by the Board on 8 December 2016.

BASIS OF PREPARATION 2.1 Statement of compliance The financial statements of the Group and of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards (“MFRSs”), International Financial Reporting Standards and the requirements of the Companies Act, 1965 in Malaysia. 2.2 Basis of measurement The financial statements of the Group and of the Company have been prepared under the historical cost basis, other than as disclosed in the significant accounting policies in Note 3 to the financial statements. 2.3 Use of estimates and judgement The preparation of financial statements in conformity with MFRSs requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of the revenue and expenses during the reported period. It also requires Directors to exercise their judgement in the process of applying the Group’s and the Company’s accounting policies. Although these estimates and judgement are based on the Directors’ best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results may differ. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed in Note 4 to the financial statements. 2.4 Functional and presentation currency The individual financial statements of each entity in the Group are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which they operate (“the functional currency”). The consolidated financial statements are presented in Ringgit Malaysia (“RM”), which is also the Company’s functional currency, and has been rounded to the nearest thousand, unless otherwise stated.

Due to the complexity of these new MFRSs and amendments/improvements to MFRSs, the financial effects of their adoption are currently still being assessed by the Group and the Company. MFRS 9 Financial Instruments Key requirements of MFRS 9:• MFRS 9 introduces an approach for classification of financial assets which is driven by cash flow characteristics and the business model in which an asset is held. The new model also results in a single impairment model being applied to all financial instruments. In essence, if a financial asset is a simple debt instrument and the objective of the entity’s business model within which it is held is to collect its contractual cash flows, the financial asset is measured at amortised cost. In contrast, if that asset is held in a business model the objective of which is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, then the financial asset is measured at fair value in the statements of financial position, and amortised cost information is provided through profit or loss. If the business model is neither of these, then fair value information is increasingly important, so it is provided both in the profit or loss and in the statements of financial position.

BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONTINUED) 2.5 New MFRSs and amendments/improvements to MFRSs that have been issued, but yet to be effective (Continued) MFRS 9 Financial Instruments (Continued) • MFRS 9 introduces a new, expected-loss impairment model that will require more timely recognition of expected credit losses. Specifically, this Standard requires entities to account for expected credit losses from when financial instruments are first recognised and to recognise full lifetime expected losses on a more timely basis. The model requires an entity to recognise expected credit losses at all times and to update the amount of expected credit losses recognised at each reporting date to reflect changes in the credit risk of financial instruments. This model eliminates the threshold for the recognition of expected credit losses, so that it is no longer necessary for a trigger event to have occurred before credit losses are recognised. • MFRS 9 introduces a substantially-reformed model for hedge accounting, with enhanced disclosures about risk management activity. The new model represents a significant overhaul of hedge accounting that aligns the accounting treatment with risk management activities, enabling entities to better reflect these activities in their financial statements. In addition, as a result of these changes, users of the financial statements will be provided with better information about risk management and the effect of hedge accounting on the financial statements. MFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers The core principle of MFRS 15 is that an entity recognises revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. An entity recognises revenue in accordance with the core principle by applying the following steps:(i) (ii) (iii) (iv) (v) identify the contracts with a customer; identify the performance obligation in the contract; determine the transaction price; allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and recognise revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. MFRS 15 also includes new disclosures that would result in an entity providing users of financial statements about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows from contracts with customers. The following MFRSs and IC Interpretations will be withdrawn on the application of MFRS15:MFRS 111 MFRS 118 IC Interpretation 13 IC Interpretation 15 IC Interpretation 18 IC Interpretation 131 Construction Contracts Revenue Customer Loyalty Programmes Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate Transfers of Assets from Customers Revenue - Barter Transactions Involving Advertising Services MFRS 16 Leases Currently under MFRS 117 Leases, leases are classified either as finance leases or operating leases. A lessee recognises on its statement of financial position assets and liabilities arising from the finance leases. MFRS 16 eliminates the distinction between finance and operating leases for lessees. All leases will be brought onto its statement of financial position except for short-term and low value asset leases.

BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONTINUED) 2.5 New MFRSs and amendments/improvements to MFRSs that have been issued, but yet to be effective (Continued) Amendments to MFRS 5 Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations Amendments to MFRS 5 introduce specific guidance on when an entity reclassifies an asset (or disposal group) from held for sale to held for distribution to owners (or vice versa), or when held-for-distribution is discontinued. Amendments to MFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures Amendments to MFRS 7 provides additional guidance to clarify whether servicing contracts constitute continuing involvement for the purposes of applying the disclosure requirements of MFRS 7. The Amendments also clarify the applicability of Disclosure - Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (Amendments to MFRS 7) to condensed interim financial statements. Amendments to MFRS 11 Joint Arrangements Amendments to MFRS 11 clarify that when an entity acquires an interest in a joint operation in which the activity of the joint operation constitutes a business, as defined in MFRS 3, it shall apply the relevant principles on business combinations accounting in MFRS 3, and other MFRSs, that do not conflict with MFRS 11. Some of the impact arising may be the recognition of goodwill, recognition of deferred tax assets/ liabilities and recognition of acquisition-related costs as expenses. The amendments do not apply to joint operations under common control and also clarify that previously held interests in a joint operation are not re-measured if the joint operator retains joint control. Amendments to MFRS 101 Presentation of Financial Statements Amendments to MFRS 101 improve the effectiveness of disclosures. The amendments clarify guidance on materiality and aggregation, the presentation of subtotals, the structure of financial statements and the disclosure of accounting policies. Amendments to MFRS 107 Statement of Cash Flows Amendments to MFRS 107 require entities to provide disclosures that enable users of financial statements to evaluate changes in liabilities arising from financing activities, including changes from cash flows and non-cash changes. The disclosure requirement could be satisfied in various ways, and one method is by providing reconciliation between the opening and closing balances in the statements of financial position for liabilities arising from financing activities. Amendments to MFRS 112 Income Taxes Amendments to MFRS 112 clarify that decreases in value of debt instrument measured at fair value for which the tax base remains at its original cost give rise to a deductible temporary difference. The estimate of probable future taxable profits may include recovery of some of an entity’s assets for more that their carrying amounts if sufficient evidence exists that it is probable the entity will achieve this. The amendments also clarify that deductible temporary differences should be compared with the entity’s future taxable profits excluding tax deductions resulting from the reversal of those deductible temporary differences when an entity evaluates whether it has sufficient future taxable profits. In addition, when an entity assesses whether taxable profits will be available, it should consider tax law restrictions with regards to the utilisation of the deduction.

BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONTINUED) 2.5 New MFRSs and amendments/improvements to MFRSs that have been issued, but yet to be effective (Continued) Amendments to MFRS 116 Property, Plant and Equipment Amendments to MFRS 116 prohibit revenue-based depreciation because revenue does not reflect the way in which an item of property, plant and equipment is used or consumed. Amendments to MFRS 127 Separate Financial Statements Amendments to MFRS 127 allow a parent and investors to use the equity method in its separate financial statements to account for investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates, in addition to the existing options. Amendments to MFRS 138 Intangible Assets Amendments to MFRS 138 introduce a rebuttable presumption that the revenue-based amortisation method is inappropriate. This presumption can be overcome only in the following limited circumstances:• when the intangible asset is expressed as a measure of revenue, i.e. in the circumstance in which the predominant limiting factor that is inherent in an intangible asset is the achievement of a revenue threshold; or • when it can be demonstrated that revenue and the consumption of the economic benefits of the intangible asset are highly correlated. Amendments to MFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements and MFRS 128 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures These amendments address an acknowledged inconsistency between the requirements in MFRS 10 and those in MFRS 128, in dealing with the sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture. The main consequence of the amendments is that a full gain or loss is recognised when a transaction involves a business, as defined in MFRS 3. A partial gain or loss is recognised when a transaction involves assets that do not constitute a business. Amendments to MFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements, MFRS 12 Disclosures of Interests in Other Entities and MFRS 128 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures These amendments address the following issues that have arisen in the application of the consolidation exception for investment entities:• Exemption from presenting consolidated financial statements: the amendments clarify that the exemption from presenting consolidated financial statements applies to a parent entity that is a subsidiary of an investment entity, when the investment entity measures all of its subsidiaries at fair value. • Consolidation of intermediate investment entities: the amendments clarify that only a subsidiary is not an investment entity itself and provides support services to the investment entity is consolidated. All other subsidiaries of an investment entity are measured at fair value. • Policy choice for equity accounting for investments in associates and joint ventures: the amendments allow a non-investment entity that has an interest in an associate or joint venture that is an investment entity, when applying the equity method, to retain the fair value measurement applied by the investment entity associate or joint venture to its interest in subsidiaries, or to unwind the fair value measurement and instead perform a consolidation at the level of the investment entity associate or joint venture.

BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONTINUED) 2.5 New MFRSs and amendments/improvements to MFRSs that have been issued, but yet to be effective (Continued) Amendments to MFRS 116 Property, Plant and Equipment and Amendments to MFRS 141 Agriculture With the amendments, bearer plants would come under the scope of MFRS 116 and would be accounted for in the same way as property, plant and equipment. A bearer plant is defined as a living plant that is used in the production or supply of agricultural produce, is expected to bear produce for more than one period and has a remote likelihood of being sold as agricultural produce, except for incidental scrap sales. Nevertheless, the produce growing on the bearer plant would remain within the scope of MFRS 141. This is because the growth of the produce directly increases the expected revenue from the sale of the produce. Moreover, fair value measurement of the growing produce provides useful information to users of financial statements about future cash flows that an entity will actually realise as the produce will ultimately be detached from the bearer plants and sold separately. 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Unless otherwise stated, the following accounting policies have been applied consistently to all the financial years presented in the financial statements of the Group and of the Company. 3.1 Basis of consolidation The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. The financial statements of the subsidiaries, associates, and joint operators used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are prepared for the same reporting date as the Company. Consistent accounting policies are applied to like transactions and events in similar circumstances. (i) Subsidiaries and business combination Subsidiaries are entities (including structured entities) over which the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the acquirees and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the acquirees. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date the Group obtains control of the acquirees until the date the Group loses control of the acquirees. The Group applies the acquisition method to account for business combinations from the acquisition date. For a new acquisition, goodwill is initially measured at cost, being the excess of the following:• the fair value of the consideration transferred, calculated as the sum of the acquisition-date fair value of assets transferred (including contingent consideration), the liabilities incurred to former owners of the acquiree and the equity instruments issued by the Group. Any amounts that relate to pre-existing relationships or other arrangements before or during the negotiations for the business combination, that are not part of the exchange for the acquiree, will be excluded from the business combination accounting and be accounted for separately; plus • the recognised amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree either at fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets at the acquisition date (the choice of measurement basis is made on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis); plus WZsatu inner.qxp_Layout 1 12/28/16 12:23 PM Page 67 Annual Report 2016 67 Notes to the Financial Statements (CONT’D) 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.1 Basis of consolidation (Continued) (i) Subsidiaries and business combination (Continued) • if the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition-date fair value of the previously held equity interest in the acquiree; less • the net fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at the acquisition date. The accounting policy for goodwill is set out in Note 3.7(i). When the excess is negative, a bargain purchase gain is recognised immediately in profit or loss at the acquisition date. Transaction costs, other than those associated with the issue of debt or equity securities, that the Group incurs in connection with a business combination are expensed as incurred. If the business combination is achieved in stages, the Group remeasures the previously held equity interest in the acquiree to its acquisition-date fair value, and recognises the resulting gain or loss, if any, in profit or loss. Amounts arising from interests in the acquiree prior to the acquisition date that have been previously been recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss or transferred directly to retained earnings, on the same basis as could be required if the acquirer had disposed directly of the previously held equity interest. If the initial accounting for a business combination is incomplete by the end of the reporting period in which the business combination occurs, the Group uses provisional fair value amounts for the items for which the accounting is incomplete. The provisional amounts are adjusted to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date, including additional assets or liabilities identified in the measurement period. The measurement period for completion of the initial accounting ends as soon as the Group receives the information it was seeking about facts and circumstances or learns that more information is not obtainable, subject to the measurement period not exceeding one year from the acquisition date. Upon the loss of control of subsidiary, the Group derecognises the assets and liabilities of the former subsidiary, any non-controlling interests and the other components of equity related to the former subsidiary from the consolidated statement of financial position. Any surplus or deficit arising on the loss of control is recognised in profit or loss. If the Group retains any interest in the former subsidiary, then such interest is measured at fair value at the date that control is lost. Subsequently, it is accounted for as an associate, joint venture, an available-for-sale financial asset or a held for trading financial asset. Changes in the Group’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions. The difference between the Group’s share of net assets before and after the change, and the fair value of the consideration received or paid, is recognised directly in equity. (ii) Non-controlling interests Non-controlling interests represent the equity in subsidiaries not attributable, directly or indirectly, to owners of the Company and are presented separately in the consolidated statement of financial position within equity. Losses attributable to the non-controlling interests are allocated to the non-controlling interests even if the losses exceed the non-controlling interests.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.1 Basis of consolidation (Continued) (iii) Associates Associates are entities over which the Group has significant influence, but not control, to the financial and operating policies. Investments in associates are accounted for in the consolidated financial statements using the equity method. Under the equity method, the investments in associates are initially recognised at cost. The cost of investment includes transaction costs. Subsequently, the carrying amount is adjusted to recognise changes in the Group’s share of net assets of the associate. When the Group’s share of losses exceeds its interest in an associate, the carrying amount of that interest including any long-term investments is reduced to zero, and the recognition of further losses is discontinued except to the extent that the Group has an obligation or has made payments on behalf of the associate. When the Group ceases to have significant influence over an associate, any retained interest in the former associate at the date when significant influence is lost is measured at fair value and this amount is regarded as the initial carrying amount of a financial asset. Any difference between the carrying amount of the associate upon loss of significant influence and the fair value of the retained investment and proceeds from disposal is recognised in profit or loss. When the Group’s interest in an associate decreases but does not result in a loss of significant influence, any retained interest is not remeasured. Any gain or loss arising from the decrease in interest is recognised in profit or loss. Any gains or losses previously recognised in other comprehensive income are also reclassified proportionately to the profit or loss if that gain or loss would be required to be reclassified to profit or loss on the disposal of the related assets or liabilities. (iv) Joint arrangements Joint arrangements arise when the Group and another party or parties are bound by a contractual arrangement, and the contractual arrangement gives the Group and the other party or parties, joint control of the arrangement. Joint control exists when there is contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement whereby decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. Joint arrangements are classified and accounted for as follows:• A joint arrangement is classified as a “joint operation” when the Group has rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities relating to the arrangement. The Group accounts for its share of its assets (including its share of any assets held jointly), its liabilities (including its share of any liabilities incurred jointly), its revenue from the sale of its share of the output arising from the joint operation, its share of the revenue from the sale of the output by the joint operation and its expenses (including its share of any expenses incurred jointly). • A joint arrangement is classified as “joint venture” when the Group has rights to the net assets of the arrangements. The Group accounts for its interest in the joint venture using the equity method in accordance with MFRS 128 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures. The Group has assessed the nature of its joint arrangement and determined them to be joint operations and accounted for its interest in the joint venture using the proportionate consolidation method.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.1 Basis of consolidation (continued) (v) Transactions eliminated on consolidation Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealised income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Unrealised gains arising from transactions with equity-accounted associates are eliminated against the investment to the extent of the Group’s interest in the investee. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment. 3.2 Separate financial statements In the Company’s statement of financial position, investments in subsidiaries and associates are measured at cost less any impairment losses, unless the investment is classified as held for sale or distribution. The cost of investment includes transaction costs. The policy for the recognition and measurement of impairment losses shall be applied on the same basis as could be required for impairment of non-financial assets as disclosed in Note 3.11(ii). 3.3 Foreign currency transactions and operations (i) Translation of foreign currency transactions Foreign currency transactions are translated to the respective functional currencies of the Group entities at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting date, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the exchange rates prevailing at the reporting date. Non-monetary items denominated in foreign currencies that are carried at fair value are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the dates the fair values were determined. Non-monetary items denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at historical cost are translated at the historical rates as at the dates of the initial transactions. Foreign exchange differences arising on settlement or retranslation of monetary items are recognised in profit or loss except for monetary item that is designated as a hedging instrument in either a cash flow hedge or a hedge of the Group’s net investment of a foreign operation. When settlement of a monetary item receivable from or payable to a foreign operation is neither planned nor likely to occur in the foreseeable future, exchange differences are recognised in profit or loss in the separate financial statements of the parent company or the individual financial statements of the foreign operation. In the consolidated financial statements, the exchange differences are considered to form part of a net investment in a foreign operation and are recognised initially in other comprehensive income until its disposal, at which time, the cumulative amount is reclassified to profit or loss. The gain or loss arising on translation of non-monetary items measured at fair value is treated in line with the recognition of the gain or loss on the change in fair value of the item (i.e. translation differences on items whose fair value gain or loss is recognised in other comprehensive income or profit or loss are also recognised in other comprehensive income or profit or loss, respectively). WZsatu inner.qxp_Layout 1 12/28/16 12:23 PM Page 70 70 WZ SATU BERHAD (666098-X) Notes to the Financial Statements (CONT’D) 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.3 Foreign currency transactions and operations (Continued) (ii) Translation of foreign operations Exchange differences arising on the translation are recognised in other comprehensive income. However, if the foreign operation is a non-wholly owned subsidiary, then the relevant proportionate share of the translation difference is allocated to the non-controlling interests. The assets and liabilities of foreign operations denominated in the functional currency different from the presentation currency, including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on acquisition, are translated into the presentation currency at exchange rates prevailing at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations are translated at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. When a foreign operation is disposed of such that control, significant influence or joint control is lost, the cumulative amount in foreign exchange translation reserve related to that foreign operation is reclassified to profit or loss. For a partial disposal not involving loss of control of a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation, the proportionate share of cumulative amount in foreign exchange translation reserve is reattributed to non-controlling interests. For partial disposals of associates or joint ventures that do not result in the Group losing significant influence or joint control, the proportionate share of the cumulative amount in foreign exchange translation reserve is reclassified to profit or loss. 3.4 Financial instruments Financial instruments are recognised in the statements of financial position when, and only when, the Group and the Company become a party to the contract provisions of the financial instrument. When financial instruments are recognised initially, they are measured at fair value plus, in the case of financial instruments not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial instruments. (i) Subsequent measurement The Group and the Company categorise the financial instruments as follows:(a) Financial assets Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets are classified as fair value through profit or loss when the financial assets is either held for trading, including derivatives (except for a derivative that is a financial guarantee contract or a designated and effective hedging instrument) or it is designated into this category upon initial recognition. Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value with the gain or loss recognised in profit or loss. The Group has not designated any financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.4 Financial instruments (Continued) (i) Subsequent measurement (Continued) (a) Financial assets (Continued) Loans and receivables Financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market are classified as loans and receivables. Subsequent to initial recognition, loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method less accumulated impairment losses, if any. The policy for the recognition and measurement of impairment losses is in accordance with Note 3.11(i). Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss through the amortisation process. Held-to-maturity investments Financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities are classified as held-to-maturity when the Group has the positive intention and ability to hold them to maturity. Subsequent to initial recognition, held-to-maturity investments are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method less accumulated impairment losses. The policy for the recognition and measurement of impairment losses is in accordance with Note 3.11(i). Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss through the amortisation process. Available-for-sale financial assets Available-for-sale financial assets comprise investment in equity and debt securities that are designated as available for sale or are not classified in any of the three preceding categories. Subsequent to initial recognition, available-for-sale financial assets are measured at fair value. Gains or losses from changes in fair value of the financial assets are recognised in other comprehensive income, except for impairment losses and foreign exchange gains and losses arising from monetary items and gains and losses of hedged items attributable to hedge risks of fair values hedges which are recognised in profit or loss. The cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified from equity to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment when the financial asset is derecognised. Interest income calculated using the effective interest method is recognised in profit or loss. Dividends on an available-for-sale equity instrument are recognised in profit or loss when the Group’s and the Company’s right to receive payment is established. Unquoted equity instruments carried at cost Investments in equity instruments that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured are measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses, if any. The policy for the recognition and measurement at impairment losses is in accordance with Note 3.11(i).

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.4 Financial instruments (Continued) (i) Subsequent measurement (Continued) (b) Financial liabilities Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading, including derivatives (except for a derivative that is a financial guarantee contract or a designated and effective hedging instrument) or financial liabilities designated into this category upon initial recognition. Subsequent to initial recognition, financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value with the gain or loss recognised in profit or loss. Derivatives that are linked to and must be settled by delivery of equity instruments that do not have a quoted price in an active market for identical instruments whose fair values otherwise cannot be reliably measured are measured at cost. The Group has not designated any financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss. Other financial liabilities Subsequent to initial recognition, other financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss through the amortisation process. (ii) Financial guarantee contracts A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due in accordance with the original or modified terms of a debt instrument. Financial guarantee contracts are recognised initially as a liability at fair value, net of transaction costs that are directly attributable to the issuance of the guarantee. Subsequent to initial recognition, the liability is measured at the higher of the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the reporting date and the amount initially recognised less cumulative amortisation. (iii) Regular way purchase or sale of financial assets A regular way purchase or sale is a purchase or sale of a financial asset under a contract whose terms require delivery of the asset within the time frame established generally by regulation or convention in the marketplace concerned. A regular way purchase or sale of financial assets is recognised and derecognised, as applicable, using trade date accounting (i.e. the date the Group and the Company itself purchase or sell an asset). Trade date accounting refers to:(a) the recognition of an asset to be received and the liability to pay for it on the trade date; and (b) derecognition of an asset that is sold, recognition of any gain or loss on disposal and the recognition of a receivable from the buyer for payment on the trade date WZsatu inner.qxp_Layout 1 12/28/16 12:23 PM Page 73 Annual Report 2016 73 Notes to the Financial Statements (CONT’D) 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.4 Financial instruments (Continued) (iv) Derecognition A financial asset or a part of it is derecognised when, and only when, the contractual rights to receive the cash flows from the financial asset expire or control of the asset is not retained or substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred to another party. On derecognition of a financial asset, the difference between the carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received (including any new asset obtained less any new liability assumed) and any cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in other comprehensive income is recognised in profit or loss. A financial liability or a part of it is derecognised when, and only when, the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires. On derecognition of a financial liability, the difference between the carrying amount and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss. (v) Offsetting of financial instruments Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is presented in the statements of financial position if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realised the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously. 3.5 Property, plant and equipment Recognition and measurement Property, plant and equipment (other than freehold land and buildings, long term leasehold land and buildings and low cost apartments) are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. The policy for the recognition of measurement of impairment losses is in accordance with Note 3.11(ii). Cost of assets includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset and any other costs that are directly attributable to bringing the asset to working condition for its intended use, and the costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located. The cost of self-constructed assets also includes cost of materials, direct labour, and any other direct attributable costs but excludes internal profits. For qualifying assets, borrowing costs are capitalised in accordance with the accounting policy on borrowing costs in Note 3.16. Freehold land and buildings, long term leasehold land and buildings and low cost apartments are measured at fair value, based on valuations by external independent valuers, less accumulated depreciation on buildings and accumulated impairment losses recognised after the date of revaluation. Valuations are performed with sufficient regularity to ensure that the fair value of the freehold land and buildings, long term leasehold land and buildings and low cost apartments do not differ materially from the carrying amount. Any accumulated depreciation as at the date of revaluation is eliminated against the gross carrying amount of the asset and the net amount is restated to the revalued amount of the asset. A revaluation surplus is recognised in other comprehensive income and credited to the revaluation reserve. However, the increase shall be recognised in profit or loss to the extent that it reverses a revaluation decrease of the same asset previously recognised in profit or loss. If an asset’s carrying amount is decreased as a result of a revaluation, the decrease shall be recognised in profit or loss. However, the decrease shall be recognised in other comprehensive income to the extent of any credit balance existing in the revaluation reserve in respect of that asset.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.5 Property, plant and equipment (Continued) Recognition and measurement (Continued) Purchased software that is integral to the functionality of the related equipment is capitalised as part of that equipment. When significant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as a separate items of property, plant and equipment. The revaluation reserve is transferred to retained earnings as the assets are used. The amount of revaluation reserve transferred is the difference between depreciation based on the revalued carrying amount of the asset and depreciation based on the asset’s original cost. Subsequent costs The cost of replacing a part of an item of property, plant and equipment is included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the part will flow to the Group or the Company and its cost can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the profit or loss as incurred. Depreciation Freehold land has an unlimited useful life and therefore is not depreciated. Asset under construction included in property, plant and equipment are not depreciated as these assets are not yet available for use. All other property, plant and equipment are depreciated on straight-line basis by allocating their depreciable amounts over their remaining useful lives. % Freehold buildings Long term leasehold land Long term leasehold buildings Low cost apartments Fabrication yard Plant, machinery and equipment Cranes Motor vehicles Furniture, fittings and office equipment Container/Cabin Renovations 2 67 - 81 years 67 - 81 years 2 20 10 - 20 20 20 10 - 30 10 - 20 10 The residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and adjusted as appropriate. Derecognition An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset is recognised in profit or loss.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.6 Leases The determination of whether an arrangement is, or contains, a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement at the inception of the lease. The arrangement is, or contains, a lease if fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset or assets. A lease is classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership. All other leases that do not meet this criterion are classified as operating leases. (i) Lessee accounting If an entity in the Group is a lessee in a finance lease, it capitalises the leased asset and recognises the related liability. The amount recognised at the inception date is the fair value of the underlying leased asset or, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments. Subsequent to initial recognition, the asset is accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy applicable to that assets. Minimum lease payments are apportioned between the finance charge and the reduction of the outstanding liability. The finance charge is allocated to each period during the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Contingent lease payments are charged as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred. The capitalised leased asset is classified by nature as property, plant and equipment. For operating leases, the Group does not capitalise the leased asset or recognise the related liability. Instead lease payments under an operating lease are recognised as an expense on the straight-line basis over the lease term unless another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern of the user’s benefit. (ii) Lessor accounting If an entity in the Group is a lessor in operating lease, the underlying asset is not derecognised but is presented in the statements of financial position according to the nature of the asset. Lease income from operating leases is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term, unless another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which use benefit derived from the leased asset is diminished. 3.7 Goodwill and other intangible assets (i) Goodwill Goodwill arises on business combinations is initially measured at cost, being the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred and the amount recognised for non-controlling interests, and any previous interest held, over the net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. After initially recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses. The policy for the recognition and measurement of impairment losses is in accordance with Note 3.11(ii). In respect of equity-accounted associates, goodwill is included in the carrying amount of the investment and is not tested for impairment individually. Instead, the entire carrying amount of the investment is tested for impairment as a single asset.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.7 Goodwill and other intangible assets (Continued) (ii) Other intangible assets Intangible assets acquired separately are measured initially at cost. The cost of intangible assets acquired in a business combination is their fair value as at the date of acquisition. Following initial acquisition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortised over the estimated useful lives and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortisation period and the amortisation method are reviewed at least at each financial year end. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset is accounted for by changing the amortisation period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortisation expense on intangible assets with finite useful lives is recognised in profit or loss in the expense category consistent with the function of the intangible asset. Gains or losses arising from de-recognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in the profit or loss when the asset is derecognised. 3.8 Inventories Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition are accounted for as follows:• • raw materials: purchase costs on weighted average cost basis. finished goods and work-in-progress: costs of direct materials and labour and a proportion of manufacturing overheads based on normal operating capacity. These costs are assigned on a weighted average cost basis. Where necessary, allowance is provided for damaged, obsolete and slow moving items to adjust the carrying value of inventories to the lower of cost 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. 3.9 Construction contracts The Group principally operates fixed price contracts. Contract revenue and contract costs are recognised as revenue and expenses respectively by reference to the stage of completion of the contract activity at the end of the reporting period (the percentage of completion method), when the outcome of a construction contract can be estimated reliably. The outcome of a construction contract can be estimated reliably when: (i) total contract revenue can be measured reliably; (ii) it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the contract will flow to the entity; (iii) the costs to complete the contract and the stage of completion can be measured reliably; (iv) the contract costs attributable to the contract can be clearly identified and measured reliably so that actual contract costs incurred can be compared with prior estimates. When the outcome of a construction contract cannot be estimated reliably (principally during early stages of a contract), contract revenue is recognised only to the extent of contact costs incurred that are likely to be recoverable and contract costs are recognised as expense in the period in which they are incurred. An expected loss on the construction contract is recognised as an expense immediately when it is probable that total contract costs will exceed total contract revenue. WZsatu inner.qxp_Layout 1 12/28/16 12:23 PM Page 77 Annual Report 2016 77 Notes to the Financial Statements (CONT’D) 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.9 Construction contracts (Continued) In applying the percentage of completion method, revenue recognised corresponds to the total contract revenue multiplied by the actual completion rate based on the proportion of total contract costs incurred to date and the estimated costs to complete. Construction work-in-progress is presented as part of the contract assets as amount owing by contract customers in the statements of financial position for all contract in which costs incurred plus recognised profits exceed progress billings. If progress billings exceed costs incurred plus recognised profits, then the difference is presented as amount owing to contract customers which is part of the contract liabilities in the statements of financial position. 3.10 Cash and cash equivalents For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, bank balances and deposits with a maturity of three months or less, that are readily convertible to known amount of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Cash and cash equivalents are presented net of bank overdrafts. 3.11 Impairment of assets (i) Impairment and uncollectibility of financial assets At each reporting date, all financial assets (except for financial assets categorised as fair value through profit or loss and investment in subsidiaries and associates) are assessed whether there is any objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events having an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset that can be reliably estimated. Losses expected as a result of future events, no matter how likely, are not recognised. Evidence of impairment may include indications that the debtors or a group of debtors are experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation, and where observable data indicate that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows, such as changes in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults. Loans and receivables and held-to-maturity investments The Group and the Company first assess whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for financial assets that are individually significant, and individually or collectively for financial assets that are not individually significant. If there is no objective evidence for impairment exists for an individually assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, the Group and the Company include the financial asset in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and collectively assess them for impairment. Financial assets that are individually assessed for impairment for which an impairment loss is or continues to be recognised are not included in a collective assessment of impairment. The amount of impairment loss is measured as the difference between the financial asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced through the use of an allowance account and the loss is recognised in profit or loss. If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases because of an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed by adjusting an allowance account to the extent that the carrying amount of the financial asset does not exceed what the amortised cost would have been had the impairment not been recognised. Loan together with the associated allowance are written off when there is no realistic prospect of future recovery and all collateral has been realised or has been transferred to the Group and the Company. If a write-off is later recovered, the recovery is credited to the profit or loss.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.11 Impairment of assets (Continued) (i) Impairment and uncollectibility of financial assets (Continued) Available-for-sale financial assets In the case of equity investments classified as available for sale, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value below its cost is considered to be objective evidence of impairment. The Group and the Company use their judgement to determine what is considered as significant or prolonged decline, evaluating past volatility experiences and current market conditions. When a decline in the fair value of an available-for-sale financial asset has been recognised in the other comprehensive income, the cumulative loss that has been recognised in other comprehensive income shall be reclassified from equity to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment even though the financial asset has not been derecognised. The amount of cumulative loss that is reclassified from equity to profit or loss shall be the difference between its cost (net of any principal repayment and amortisation) and its current fair value, less any impairment loss previously recognised in profit or loss. Impairment losses on available-for-sale equity investments are not reversed through profit or loss in the subsequent periods. Increase in fair value, if any, subsequent to impairment loss is recognised in other comprehensive income. For available-for-sale debt investments, impairment losses are subsequently reversed through profit or loss if an increase in the fair value of the investment can be objectively related to loss event occurring after the recognition of the impairment loss in profit or loss. Unquoted equity instruments carried at cost In the case of unquoted equity instruments carried at cost, the amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the carrying amount of financial asset and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar financial asset. Such impairment shall not be reversed. (ii) Impairment of non-financial assets The carrying amounts of non-financial assets (except for inventories, amount due from customers for contract work and deferred tax assets) are reviewed at the end of each reporting period to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the Group and the Company make an estimate of the asset’s recoverable amount. For goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite useful life and are not yet available for use, the recoverable amount is estimated at each reporting date. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of non-financial assets or cashgenerating units (“CGUs”). Subject to an operating segment ceiling test, for the purpose of goodwill impairment testing, CGUs to which goodwill has been allocated are aggregated so that the level at which impairment testing is performed reflects the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal reporting purposes. The goodwill acquired in a business combination, for the purpose of impairment testing, is allocated to a CGU or a group of CGUs that are expected to benefit from the synergies of business combination.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.11 Impairment of assets (Continued) (ii) Impairment of non-financial assets (Continued) The recoverable amount of an asset of CGU is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. In assessing 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 or CGU. In determining the fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. Where the carrying amount of an asset exceed its recoverable amount, the carrying amount of asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. Impairment losses recognised in respect of a CGU or groups of CGUs are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to those units or groups of units and then, to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the unit or groups of units on a pro-rata basis. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss except for assets that are previously revalued with the revaluation taken to other comprehensive income. In this case, the impairment is recognised in other comprehensive income up to the amount of any previous revaluation. An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. In respect of other assets, an assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. An impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the assets recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised previously. Such reversal is recognised in profit or loss unless the asset is measured at revalued amount, in which case the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase. 3.12 Share capital (i) Ordinary shares Ordinary shares are equity instruments and classified as equity. An equity instrument is a contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Company after deducting all of its liabilities. Ordinary shares are recorded at the proceeds received, net of directly attributable incremental transaction costs. Dividends on ordinary shares are recognised in equity in the period in which they are declared. (ii) Warrants Warrants are classified as equity. The issue of ordinary shares upon exercise of the warrants are treated as new subscription of ordinary shares for the consideration equivalent to the warrants exercise price. 3.13 Employee benefits (i) Short-term employee benefits Short-term employee benefit obligations in respect of wages, salaries, social security contributions, annual bonuses, paid annual leave, sick leave and non-monetary benefits are recognised as an expense in the financial year where the employees have rendered their services to the Group and the Company.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.13 Employee benefits (Continued) (ii) Post-employment benefits As required by law, the Group and the Company contribute to the Employees Provident Fund (“EPF”), the national defined contribution plan. Certain foreign subsidiaries make contributions to their respective countries’ statutory pension scheme. Such contributions are recognised as an expense in the profit or loss in the period in which the employees render their services. 3.14 Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount of the obligation can be estimated reliably. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as finance cost. Provisions are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. If it is no longer probable that an outflow of economic resources will be required to settle the obligation, the provision is reversed. 3.15 Revenue Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the revenue can be reliably measured, regardless of when payment is made. Revenue is measured at fair value of consideration received or receivable, taking into account contractually defined terms of payment and excluding taxes and duty. The Group concluded that it is acting as a principal in all of its revenue arrangement. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:Sale of goods Revenue from sale of goods is recognised upon the transfer of significant risk and rewards of ownership of the goods to the customer, usually on delivery of goods. Revenue is not recognised to the extent where there are significant uncertainties regarding recovery of the consideration due, associated costs or the possible return of goods. Rental income Rental income is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives granted are recognised as an integral part of the total rental income, over the term of the lease. Interest income Interest income is recognised as it accrues using the effective interest method. Dividend income Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive payment is established. Management fee Management fee is recognised on an accrual basis, net of taxes. WZsatu inner.qxp_Layout 1 12/28/16 12:23 PM Page 81 Annual Report 2016 81 Notes to the Financial Statements (CONT’D) 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.15 Revenue (Continued) Construction contracts Revenue from construction contracts is accounted for by the stage of completion method. The stage of completion method is measured by reference to the proportion of contract costs incurred for work performed to date to the estimated total contracts costs. Rendering of services Revenue from services rendered is recognised net of taxes and discounts as and when the services are performed. 3.16 Borrowing costs Borrowing costs are interests and other costs that the Group and the Company incur in connection with borrowing of funds. Borrowing costs that are not directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method. Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. The Group and the Company begin capitalising borrowing costs when the Group and the Company have incurred the expenditures for the asset, incurred related borrowing costs and undertaken activities that are necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use or sale. Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation. 3.17 Income taxes Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to a business combination or items recognised directly in equity or other comprehensive income. (i) Current tax Current tax is the expected taxes payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the financial year, using the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous financial years. (ii) Deferred tax Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the statements of financial position. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and unused tax credits, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and unused tax credits can be utilised. Deferred tax is not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of assets and liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit. In addition, deferred tax liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of goodwill.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.17 Income taxes (Continued) (ii) Deferred tax (Continued) Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates, except where the Group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments and interests are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilise the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow the benefit of part or all of that deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax assets to be utilised. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Deferred tax relating to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss. Deferred tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intends to settle their income tax recoverable and income tax payable on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realised simultaneously. (iii) Goods and services tax Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (“GST”) except:• where the GST incurred in a purchase of assets or services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable; and • receivables and payables that are stated with the amount of GST included. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the statements of financial position. 3.18 Discontinued operation A disposal group qualifies as discontinued operation if it is a component of an entity that either has been disposed of, or is classified as held for sale, and:• • • represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations; is part of a single co-ordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations; or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale. Classification as a discontinued operation occurs upon disposal or when the operation meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale, if earlier. When an operation is classified as a discontinued operation, the comparative statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive is re-presented as if the operation has been discontinued from the start of the comparative period.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.19 Operating segments Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decisionmaker. The chief operating decision-maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer of the Group that makes strategic decisions. 3.20 Fair value measurements Fair value of an asset or a liability, except for lease transactions, is determined as 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. The measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either in the principal market or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market. For non-financial asset, the fair value measurement takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use. When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group uses observable market data as far as possible. Fair value are categorised into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the input used in the valuation technique as follows:Level 1: Level 2: Level 3: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Group can access at the measurement date. Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. There were no transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy as of the date of the event or change in circumstances. 3.21 Contingencies A contingent liability or asset is a possible obligation or asset that arises from past events and whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of uncertain future event(s) not wholly within the control of the Group and of the Company. Contingent liability is also referred as a present obligation that arises from past events but is not recognised because:• it is not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation; or • the amount of the obligation cannot be measured with sufficient reliability. Contingent liabilities and assets are not recognised in the statements of financial position. 3.22 Earnings Per Share The Group present basic and diluted earnings per share data for its ordinary shares (“EPS”). Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for own shares held. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding, adjusted for own shares held, for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS Significant areas of estimation, uncertainty and critical judgements in applying accounting policies that have significant effect in determining the amount recognized in the financial year include the following:(a) Impairment of goodwill The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is any indication that goodwill may be impaired. For the purpose of assessing impairment, assets (including goodwill) are grouped at the lowest level where there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash-generating units). In determining the value-in-use of a cash-generating unit, management estimates the discounted cash flows using reasonable and supportable inputs about sales, costs of sales and other expenses based on past experience, current events and reasonably possible future developments. Cash flows that are projected based on those inputs or assumptions and the discount rate applied in the measurement of value-in-use may have a significant effect on the Group’s financial position and results if the actual cash flows are less than the expected. The carrying amount of the Group’s goodwill and key assumptions used to determine the recoverable amount for different cash-generating units, including sensitivity analysis, are disclosed in Note 6. (b) Depreciation of property, plant and equipment The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment is depreciated on the straight-line method or another systematic method that reflects the consumption of the economic benefits of the asset over its useful life. Estimates are applied in the selection of the depreciation method, the useful lives and the residual values. The actual consumption of the economic benefits of the property, plant and equipment may differ from the estimates applied. The carrying amounts of the Group’s and the Company’s property, plant and equipment are disclosed in Note 5. (c) Impairment of financial assets The Group recognizes impairment losses for loans and receivables using the incurred loss model. Individually significant loans and receivables are tested for impairment separately by estimating the cash flows expected to be recoverable. All others are grouped into credit risk classes and tested for impairment collectively, using the Group’s past experience of loss statistics, ageing of past due amounts and current economic trends. The actual eventual losses may be different from the allowance made and this may affect the Group’s financial position and results. The carrying amounts of the Group’s and Company’s financial assets are disclosed in Note 31. (d) Impairment of non-financial assets The Group and the Company review the carrying amount of its property, plant and equipment, to determine whether there is an indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss in accordance with relevant accounting policies on the property, plant and equipment. Independent professional valuations to determine the carrying amount of these assets will be procured when the need arises. As at the end of the financial year under review, the directors are of the view that there is no indication of impairment to these assets and therefore no independent professional valuation was procured by the Group during the financial year to determine the carrying amount of these assets. The carrying amounts of property, plant and equipment are disclosed in Note 5 to the financial statements. (e) Income taxes The Group is subject to income taxes in numerous jurisdictions. Significant judgement is required in determining the capital allowances and deductibility of certain expenses during the estimation of the provision for income taxes. There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred income tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS (f) Deferred tax assets Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and unabsorbed capital allowances to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the tax losses and capital allowances can be utilised. Significant management judgment is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and level of future taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies. The carrying amount of the Group’s recognised deferred tax assets is disclosed in Note 11. (g) Construction contract Significant judgement is used in determining the stage of completion, the extent of the contract costs incurred, the estimated total contract revenue and costs, as well as the recoverability of the contracts. The total contract revenue also includes an estimation of the work that are recoverable from the customers. In making judgements, the Group and the Company evaluate based on the past experience and work of specialists. The carrying amounts of amount due from contract customers and amount due to contract customers are disclosed in Note 13. (h) Write-down of obsolete or slow moving inventories The Group and the Company write down their obsolete or slow moving inventories based on the assessment of their estimated net selling price. Inventories are written down when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. The management specifically analyses sales trend and current economic trends when making a judgement to evaluate the adequacy of the write-down of obsolete or slow moving inventories. Where expectations differ from the original estimates, the differences will impact the carrying amount of inventories. The carrying amounts of the Group’s and of the Company’s inventories are disclosed in Note 12. (i) Classification between operating lease and finance lease for leasehold land The Group has developed certain criteria based on MFRS 117 Leases in making judgement whether a leasehold land should be classified either as operating lease or finance lease. Finance lease is a lease that transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an assets and operating lease is a lease that does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership. If the leasehold land meets the criteria of the financial lease, the lease will be classified as property, plant and equipment if it is for own use. Judgements are made on the individual leasehold land to determine whether the leasehold land qualifies as operating lease or finance lease. The Group has classified the leases period of more than 50 years as finance leases as they have met the criteria of a finance lease under MFRS 117. (j) Provisions The Group recognises provisions when it has a present legal or constructive obligation arising as a result of a past event, and is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made. The recording of provisions requires the application of judgements about the ultimate resolutions of these obligations. As a result, provisions are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the Group’s current best estimate. The carrying amounts of the Group’s provisions are disclosed in Note 20 to the financial statements. 5. 2,662 (1,813) (5,818) 36 1,263 (399) 16 2,862 38,422 At 31 August 2016 Carrying amount At 31 August 2016 23,508 20,880 25,813 44,388 1,982 41,284 At 31 August 2016 46,970 13,996 (18,788) (5,420) 7,308 322 Accumulated Depreciation At 1 September 2015 Depreciation charge for the financial year Disposal of subsidiaries Disposal/written-offs Exchange differences 48,165 156 (10,910) 3,387 486 2016 Cost/Valuation At 1 September 2015 Additions Disposal of subsidiaries Disposal/written-offs Transfer Exchange differences Group Plant, machinery and equipment RM'000 - 48 - 48 48 48 - Cranes RM'000 15,753 3,795 2,447 (108) (1,044) 3 2,497 19,548 8,414 12,801 (603) (1,076) 12 Motor vehicles RM'000 2,577 2,009 711 (75) (164) 2 1,535 4,586 4,506 779 (743) (253) 280 17 1,358 325 189 (18) - 154 1,683 1,590 391 (298) - 174 61 28 (25) - 58 235 318 93 (176) - Total RM'000 21 - - - 81,813 29,980 7,300 (2,413) (7,051) 57 32,087 21 111,793 7,943 117,954 5,468 33,684 - (31,342) (2,415) (9,340) (10,975) 837 Cost Furniture, fittings and office Container/ Asset under equipment Renovations Cabin construction RM'000 RM'000 RM'000 RM'000 86 Properties # RM'000 PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT WZsatu inner.qxp_Layout 1 12/28/16 12:23 PM Page 86 WZ SATU BERHAD (666098-X) Notes to the Financial Statements (CONT’D) 5. 2,228 (385) (3) 47 1,062 (2) 24 1,982 46,183 At 31 August 2015 Carrying amount At 31 August 2015 21,157 25,813 23,926 46,970 898 48,165 At 31 August 2015 32,874 14,193 372 (1,207) (11) 749 Accumulated Depreciation At 1 September 2014 Depreciation charge for the financial year Disposal of a subsidiary Disposal/written-offs Exchange differences 38,602 803 7,433 (39) 318 1,048 2015 Cost/Valuation At 1 September 2014 Additions Acquisition of a subsidiary Disposal of a subsidiary Disposal/written-offs Transfer Exchange differences Group Properties # RM'000 Plant, machinery and equipment RM'000 PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT (CONTINUED) - 48 - 48 48 48 - Cranes RM'000 5,917 2,497 1,223 (189) (1,809) 4 3,268 8,414 5,409 5,045 183 (430) (1,809) 16 Motor vehicles RM'000 2,971 1,535 577 (5) (61) 3 1,021 4,506 2,307 1,462 806 (37) (63) 31 1,436 154 129 - 25 1,590 758 791 41 - 260 58 30 (7) - 35 318 67 90 189 (28) - 80,065 30,645 9,024 (1,702) (1,922) 1,844 Total RM'000 7,943 - - - 85,867 32,087 5,249 (586) (1,875) 78 29,221 7,943 117,954 8,261 (318) - Cost Furniture, fittings and office Container/ Asset under equipment Renovations Cabin construction RM'000 RM'000 RM'000 RM'000 WZsatu inner.qxp_Layout 1 12/28/16 12:23 PM Page 87 Annual Report 2016 87 Notes to the Financial Statements (CONT’D) WZsatu inner.qxp_Layout 1 12/28/16 12:23 PM Page 88 88 WZ SATU BERHAD (666098-X) Notes to the Financial Statements (CONT’D) 5.

GOODWILL ON CONSOLIDATION (CONTINUED) For each of the CGUs, the value-in-use calculation is most sensitive to the following key assumptions:- Annual growth rate Long-term growth rate Discount rate CGU 1 CGU 2 9% 2% 13% 7% 2% 15% The gross margin used in the value-in-use calculation range from 8% to 27%. These key assumptions have been used for the analysis of each CGU. The values assigned to the key assumptions represent management’s assessment of future trends in the respective industry and are based on both external sources and internal sources (historical data). (i) Revenue is the forecasted annual growth rate over the three-year projection period. It is based on the average growth levels experienced over the past four years. (ii) Gross margin is the forecasted margin as a percentage of revenue over the three-year projection period. These are based on the average gross margin of the existing projects. (iii) Long-term growth rate does not exceed the long-term average growth rates for the industries relevant to the CGU. Cash flows beyond the three-year projection period are extrapolated using the long-term growth rates. (iv) Discount rate was estimated based on the industry weighted average cost of capital. The discount rate applied to the cash flow projections is pre-tax and reflects management’s estimate of the risks specific to the CGU at the date of assessment. Based on the sensitivity analysis performed, management believes that there is no reasonably possible change in key assumptions that would cause the carrying values of the CGUs to exceed its recoverable amounts. The estimated recoverable amount of the CGUs exceed the carrying amount. As a result of the analysis, management did not identify an impairment for the CGUs. 7.

The Group classifies fair value measurements using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:• • • Level 1 – quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).

The fair value of finance lease liabilities of the Group and of the Company are categorised as Level 2. 32. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES The Group’s and the Company’s activities are exposed to a variety of financial risks arising from their operations and the use of financial instruments. The key financial risks include interest rate risk, foreign currency risk, liquidity risk and credit risk. The Group’s and the Company's overall financial risk management objective is to optimise value for their shareholders. The Group and the Company do not trade in financial instruments. The Board of Directors reviews and agrees to policies and procedures for the management of these risks, which are executed by the Group’s senior management. The audit committee provides independent oversight to the effectiveness of the risk management process. (i) Interest rate risk Interest rate risk arises on interest-bearing financial instruments recognised in the statement of financial position. It will affect the Group’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The Group’s exposures to interest rate risk for changes in interest rates mainly arise from its short term borrowings and term loans with floating interest rate. Interest rate risk is managed by the Group on an on-going basis with the primary objective of limiting the extent to which net interest expense could be affected by an adverse movement in interest rates.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (CONTINUED) (i) Interest rate risk (Continued) Sensitivity analysis for interest rate risk At the end of the financial year, if interest rates had been 25 basis points lower/ higher, with all other variables held constant, the Group’s profit after tax would have been RM193,823 (2015: RM148,982) higher/ lower, arising mainly as a result of lower/ higher interest expense on floating rate loans and borrowings. (ii) Foreign currency risk Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Group’s exposure to the risk rates relates primarily to the Group’s operating activities (when sales and purchases that are denominated in foreign currency). Based on carrying amounts as at the end of the financial year, the material foreign currency denominated financial assets and liabilities which expose the Group to currency risk are disclosed below:- 31 August 2016 Trade receivables Cash and bank balances Trade payables Net exposure United States Dollar RM'000 Singapore Dollar RM'000 Euro RM'000 Total RM'000 7,077 1,650 (4,831) (519) (340) 7,077 1,650 (5,690) 3,896 (519) (340) 3,037 4,939 2,392 (4,025) 21 (7,600) (1,135) 4,960 2,392 (12,760) 3,306 (7,579) (1,135) (5,408) 31 August 2015 Trade receivables Cash and bank balances Trade payables Net exposure Sensitivity analysis for foreign currency risk The following demonstrates the sensitivity of the Group’s profit after tax to a reasonably possible change in the United States Dollar, Singapore Dollar and Euro against the Ringgit Malaysia, with all other variables held constant.

The Group's and the Company’s exposure to liquidity risk arise primarily from mismatches of the maturities between financial assets and liabilities. The Group’s and the Company’s exposure to liquidity risk arise principally from trade and other payables, loans and borrowings. Maturity analysis The maturity analysis of the Group’s and the Company’s financial liabilities by their relevant maturity at the reporting date are based on contractual undiscounted repayment obligation as follows:- Group At 31 August 2016 Trade and other payables Derivative financial liabilities Finance lease liabilities Floating rate bank loan Short term borrowings At 31 August 2015 Trade and other payables Finance lease liabilities Floating rate bank loan Short term borrowings More than 1 On demand year but not Carrying Contractual or less than later than Amount Cashflows 1 year 5 years RM'000 RM'000 RM'000 RM'000 More than 5 years RM'000 84,097 73 18,684 4,416 73,113 84,097 73 20,980 4,659 77,821 84,097 73 6,364 1,920 77,821 14,600 2,739 - 16 - 180,383 187,630 170,275 17,339 16 91,623 13,017 6,566 53,027 91,623 14,375 7,183 57,019 91,623 4,989 2,229 57,019 9,231 2,557 - 155 2,397 - 164,233 170,200 155,860 11,788 2,552 WZsatu inner.qxp_Layout 1 12/28/16 12:25 PM Page 130 130 WZ SATU BERHAD (666098-X) Notes to the Financial Statements (CONT’D) 32.

The Group’s and the Company’s exposure to credit risk arises primarily from trade and other receivables. The Group and the Company have a credit policy in place and the exposure to credit risk is managed through the application of credit approvals, credit limits and monitoring procedures. For other financial assets, the Group and the Company minimise credit risk by dealing with high credit rating counterparties. As at the end of the reporting period, the maximum exposure to credit risk arising from trade and other receivables is represented by their carrying amounts in the statements of financial position. The carrying amount of trade and other receivables are not secured by any collateral or supported by any other credit enhancements. In determining the recoverability of these receivables, the Group and the Company consider any change in the credit quality of the receivables from the date the credit was initially granted up to the reporting date. The Group and the Company have adopted a policy of dealing with creditworthy counterparties as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. The Group and the Company use ageing analysis to monitor the credit quality of the trade receivables. The ageing of trade receivables as at the end of the financial year is disclosed in Note 10. Trade receivables that are neither past due nor impaired are creditworthy debtors with good payment records with the Group and the Company. A significant portion of these trade receivables are regular customers that have been transacting with the Group and the Company. Management has taken reasonable steps to ensure that trade receivables that are neither past due nor impaired are stated at their realisable values. Impairment are made on specific receivables when there is objective evidence that the Group and the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due. The Group and the Company monitor the results of the subsidiaries and associate companies in determining the recoverability of these intercompany balances.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (CONTINUED) (iv) Credit risk (Continued) Financial guarantee The Company is exposed to credit risk in relation to financial guarantees given to banks in respect of loans granted to certain subsidiaries. The Company monitors the results of the subsidiaries and associates for their repayment on an on-going basis. The maximum exposure to credit risks amounts to RM84,495,000 (2015: RM93,930,000) representing the maximum amount the Company could pay if the guarantee is called on as disclosed in Note 36. The financial guarantee have not been recognized since the fair value on initial recognition was not material. Credit risk concentration profile The information on credit risk concentration is disclosed in Note 10 to the financial statements. 33. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT The primary objective of the Group’s and of the Company’s capital management is to ensure that they maintain a strong credit rating and healthy capital ratio in order to support their business and maximise shareholder value. The Group and the Company manage their capital structure and make adjustments to it, in light of changes in economic conditions. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group and the Company may adjust the dividend payment to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares. No changes were made in the objectives, policies and processes during the financial year ended 31 August 2016 and 31 August 2015. The debt-to-equity ratios at 31 August 2016 and 31 August 2015 are as follows:Group Total loans and borrowings Less : Short term deposits, cash and bank balances Sub-total Net debt Equity attributable to the Owners of the Company, representing total capital Debt-to-equity ratio 2016 RM'000 2015 RM'000 96,213 (128,324) 72,610 (78,538) (32,111) (5,928) - - 297,093 249,340 - - WZsatu inner.qxp_Layout 1 12/28/16 12:25 PM Page 132 132 WZ SATU BERHAD (666098-X) Notes to the Financial Statements (CONT’D) 34. SEGMENTAL REPORTING The Group prepared the following segment information in accordance with MFRS 8 Operating Segments based on the internal reports of the Group’s strategic business units which are regularly reviewed by the Group’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) for the purpose of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment. The six reportable operating segments are as follows:Segments:Civil engineering and construction Oil and gas Mining Manufacturing Trading Investment Products and services:Securing and carrying out construction contracts Contractor, sub- contractor, carry on fabrication & assembly and testing works, trading and after service of products for oil and gas industries Mining operations and activities Manufacturing of steel products Trading of steel products Investment holding Other non-reportable segments comprise mineral resources business and power generation business which are below the quantitative thresholds for determining operating segments. The inter-segment transactions have been entered into in the normal course of business and have been established on terms and conditions that are not materially different from those obtainable in transactions with unrelated parties. Segment profit Segment performance is used to measure performance as Group’s Chief Executive Officer believes that such information is the most relevant in evaluating the results of certain segments relative to other entities that operate within these industries. Performance is evaluated based on operating profit or loss which is measured differently from operating profit or loss in the consolidated financial statements. Segment assets and liabilities The total of segment assets and liabilities is measured based on all assets and liabilities (excluding investment in associates) of a segment, as included in the internal reports that are reviewed by the Group’s Chief Executive Officer.

The directors are also responsible for such internal controls as the directors determine are necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditors’ Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia. 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 our judgement, including the assessment of risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, we consider internal controls relevant to the Company’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 Company’s internal controls. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Opinion In our opinion, the financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Group and of the Company as at 31 August 2016 and of their financial performance and cash flows for the financial year then ended in accordance with the Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards, International Financial Reporting Standards and the requirements of the Companies Act, 1965 in Malaysia.

The Company had been granted a general mandate by its shareholders at the 11th AGM of the Company held on 28 January 2016 (hereinafter referred to as the “Previous Mandate”). The Previous Mandate granted by the shareholders had not been utilised and hence no proceed was raised therefrom. The purpose to seek the General Mandate is to enable the Directors of the Company to issue and allot shares at any time to such persons in their absolute discretion without convening a general meeting as it would be both time-consuming and costly to organise a general meeting. This authority unless revoked or varied by the Company in a general meeting, will expire at the next Annual General Meeting. The Company is actively exploring opportunities to broaden its earnings potential. The proceeds raised from the General Mandate will provide flexibility to the Company for any possible fund-raising activities, including but not limited to further placement of shares for purpose of funding future investment project(s), working capital and/or acquisitions. 2. Proposed Renewal of Share Buy-back Authority The proposed Ordinary Resolution 10, if passed, will empower the Directors to buy-back and/or hold up to a maximum of 10% of the Company’s issued and paid-up share capital at any point of time, by utilising the funds allocated which shall not exceed the total retained profits and share premium of the Company. This authority, unless revoked or varied by the Company in general meeting, will expire at the conclusion of the next Annual General Meeting of the Company, or the expiration of period within which the next Annual General Meeting is required by law to be held, whichever is earlier. Please refer to the Statement to Shareholders dated 28 December 2016 for more information. 3. Approval to Continue in Office as Independent Non-Executive Director (a) Dato’ Amin Rafie Bin Othman Dato’ Amin Rafie Bin Othman was appointed as Independent Non-Executive Director of the Company on 26 October 2007 and his tenure as an Independent Non-Executive Director of the Company had exceeded a cumulative term of nine (9) years.
