Risk Factors and Risk Management Risk factors in business operation of the Company can be summarized as follows:

Risk from economics condition fluctuation

The fluctuation of economics condition may result in that the Company’s customers, which mainly are companies and shops, manage their budgets more carefully which causes the decrease of the volume of purchase orders for stationery and office appliances or the slowdown of the volume of purchase orders and consequently affecting a sale volume of the Company. To reduce such risk, the Company has planned to increase a variety of types of products to additionally respond to the demand from customers under our partners’ brands and house brands which are tools to increase the volume of purchase orders. In addition, the Company has planned to expand a variety of its organizational customer base and expand its customer base more to individuals. Since 2009, the Company has increased daily products such as beauty and health products, computer games, books, household appliances and toys to respond to personal-use customers’ needs.

Risk from industrial competition

There are many competitors in the business of stationery and office appliances distribution, including distribution of the products related to daily life. In addition, since this business does not cost a high investment, it gives an opportunity to new investors to easily complete with us. Different characteristics of enterprisers such as retail shops, modern traders, direct sales and catalog sales, create the different forms of competitions. The Company focuses to maintain its leadership in the business of distribution of stationery and office appliances through catalog sales and e-Commerce system and to expand its business to meet individual customers’ needs all over by emphasizing on the importance of product quality with compatible prices, the modern management system so as to adjust and develop its sales through call center system and the placement of purchase orders through website, together with providing delivery and after sale service free-of-charge. The Company’s purpose is to make the services from the Company different, create an ability to compete with others, including maintain endurable market shares.

Risk from major shareholders who have influence on decision making on policy and management of the Company

by laws or Articles of Association of the Company to obtain three-fourths of the votes in a shareholders ’ meeting. Therefore, other shareholders may not aggregate their votes for purpose of inspection and balancing power from major shareholders, except for the matters under which Mr. Worawoot Ounjai has an interest in accordance with the definition of the Stock Exchange of Thailand. However, a group of major shareholders intend to operate business with clear, independence, transparency and endurance in accordance with Good Corporate Governance, which can be checked by the shareholders, as elaborated in management structure of the Company. The management structure comprises three committees namely, Board of Directors, Audit Committee and Executive Committee which comprises individuals equipped with knowledge and ability and there are clear scopes of responsibilities of such committees.

Risk of relying on executives

In the start of the business, the Company had relied on executives who played roles in determination of objectives, business strategies and business management in order to enhance the growth of the business with efficiency by systematic work procedures such as call center system, warehouse management system and modern information technology system in order to allow the Company to operate its business with a low risk of relying on such executives. However, the Company still relies on such executives to determine strategies and business directions, business plans and decisions related to future projects.

Risk management

The Company foresees the importance of a risk management of the organization as a whole. The Company has established a committee to proceed with a risk management and to act in inspecting and directly supervising on a risk management such as financial risks, operation risks and business risks.

The requirements require actuarial assumptions to measure the obligation and expense. Moreover, the obligations are measured on a discounted basis using the Projected Unit Credit Method because they may be settled many years after the employees render the related service.

3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

3.1 Revenues and Expenses Recognitions Sales of goods are recognized when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods

have passed to the buyer. Sales are the invoiced value, excluding value added tax, of goods

supplied after deducting discounts and allowances. Service income is recognized proportionately over the term of the service agreements. Advertising income from Catalog (annually) will be recognized by the average number of

catalogs distributed during the year and the expenses involved will also be recognized at the

same method. Other revenues and expenses are recognized on an accrual basis. 3.2 Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash in hand, cash at banks, and all highly liquid

investments with an original maturity of three months or less and not subject to withdrawal

restrictions. 3.3 Investment Investments are investments in Open-ended Fund, which are classified in the balance sheets as

trading securities, are carried at their fair values. The fair value is calculated by net asset value

of the fund as at the balance sheet date. Gain or loss on valuation is realized in the statement

of income. 3.4 Trade accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts Trade accounts receivable are stated at the net realizable value. Allowance for doubtful

accounts is provided for the estimated losses that may be incurred in the collection of

receivables. The allowance is generally based on collection experiences and analysis of debt

aging. 3.5 Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (the average cost method) and net realizable

value.

64

OfficeMate Public Company Limited Annual Report 2010


3.6 Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and

allowance for loss on impairment of assets (if any). Depreciation of plant and equipment is calculated by reference to their costs on the straight-

line basis over the following estimated useful lives: Years Warehouse 20 Office buildings 20 Furnitures and fixtures 5 Equipment 3, 5, 7 Vehicles 5 Car parking 5 No depreciation is provided for land and land improvements. Depreciation is recognized in the income statement. 3.7 Borrowing costs Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset

that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are

capitalized as part of the cost of the respective assets. All other borrowing costs are

expensed in the period they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an

entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds. 3.8 Intangible assets Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized on a systematic basis over the economic

useful life and tested for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset

may be impaired. The amortization period and the amortization method of such intangible

assets are reviewed at least at each financial year end. The amortization expense is charged

to the income statement. A summary of the intangible assets with finite useful lives is as follows. Computer software 10 years 3.9 Long-term leases Leases of property, plant or equipment which transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of

ownership are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalized at the lower of the

fair value of the leased assets and the present value of the minimum lease payments. The

outstanding rental obligations, net of finance charges, are included in other long-term

payables, while the interest element is charged to the income statements over the lease

period. The property, plant or equipment acquired under finance leases is depreciated over

the useful life of the asset. Lease of assets where a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained

by the lesser are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are

recognized as expenses in the income statements over the period of the lease. OfficeMate Public Company Limited

3.10 Foreign currencies Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into Baht at the exchange rate ruling at the

date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies

are translated into Baht at the exchange rate ruling at the balance sheet date. Gains and losses on exchange are recognized in the income statement. 3.11 Employee benefits Salary, wages, bonuses and contributions to the social security fund and provident fund are

recognized as expenses when incurred. 3.12 Provisions Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation as a result of a past

event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be

required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of

the obligation. 3.13 Income Tax Income tax for the year is calculated from the net profit for the year adjusted by non-

deductible expenses or non-taxable income and multiplied by the income tax rate

stipulated by the Revenue Code. 3.14 Basic Earning per Share Basic earning per share is computed by dividing the net profit for the year by the weighted

average number of issued and paid-up common shares during the year. 3.15 Financial instruments The Company has no policy to speculate in or engage in the trading of any financial

derivative instruments.

4. Significant accounting judgments and estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting

principles at times requires management to make subjective judgments and estimates regarding

matters that are inherently uncertain. These judgments and estimates affect reported amounts

and disclosures and actual results could differ. Significant judgments and estimates are as follows: 4.1 Allowance for doubtful accounts In determining an allowance for doubtful accounts, the management needs to make

judgment and estimates based upon, among other things, past collection history, aging

profile of outstanding debts and the prevailing economic condition.

66

OfficeMate Public Company Limited Annual Report 2010


4.2 4.3 4.4 4.5

Allowance for diminution in value of inventory The determination of allowances for diminution in the value of inventory, requires

management to make judgments and estimates. The allowance for decline in net realizable

value is estimated based on the selling price expected in the ordinary course of business;

and provision for obsolete, slow-moving and deteriorated inventories, that is estimated

based on the approximate useful life of each type of inventory. Leases In determining whether a lease is to be classified as an operating lease or finance lease, the

management is required to use judgment regarding whether significant risk and rewards of

ownership of the leased asset has been transferred, taking into consideration terms and

conditions of the arrangement. Property plant and equipment/Depreciation In determining depreciation of plant and equipment, the management is required to make

estimates of the useful lives and salvage values of the Company’s plant and equipment and

to review estimate useful lives and salvage values when there are any changes. In addition, the management is required to review property, plant and equipment for

impairment on a periodical basis and record impairment losses in the period when it is

determined that their recoverable amount is lower than the carrying amount. This requires

judgments regarding forecast of future revenues and expenses relating to the assets subject

to the review. Goodwill and intangible assets The initial recognition and measurement of goodwill and other intangible assets, and

subsequent impairment testing, require management to make estimates of cash flows to be

generated by the asset or the cash generating units and to choose a suitable discount rate

in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows.

16. Disclosure of Financial Instruments Credit risk

The Company has credit risk in relation to its trade accounts receivable. However, the Company

has several customers and maintains conservative credit policy and collection procedures.

Therefore, the Company does not expect to have significant loss from uncollectible amounts on

these receivables.

Fair value of financial instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair value

of the financial instruments: Cash in hand and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, the carrying values approximate

their fair values. Bank overdrafts and loans from financial institutions carrying variable rates of interest and trade

accounts payable, carry amounts approximating their fair values.

The management of the Company believes that the fair value of such financial assets and

liabilities will not be significantly different from the book values.

Interest rate risk

The interest rate risk is the risk that future movements in the market interest rates will affect the

results of the Company’s operations and its cash flows. The Company’s exposure to interest rates

risk relates primarily to its deposits, bank overdrafts, and loans from financial institutions.

Since major financial assets and liabilities are classified as short-term, the Company does not

have significant risk from the interest rates.

17. Financial Information by Segment

The Company operations are in a single industry segment of stationery supplies and office

equipment by sales order through catalog, Call-Center and electronic commercial system (e-

Commerce) in the single geographic area of Thailand. As a result, all of the revenues, operating
