Backlog

In 2010, the Company had unrealised revenue (backlog) of Baht 4,812.35 million, an increased from 2009 of Baht 641.83 million or 15.39%, that because in 2010 the company still recognized revenue under the percentage-of-completion method, the percentage of completion is determined based on the proportion of the actual cost already incurred up to the end of the period to the total anticipated development costs to be incurred to completion, excluding the cost of land. Therefore, most of the backlog in 2010 came from existing projects that were during the construction period and presales booking of the 3 new projects, these could guarantee the strength of revenue recognition in the future, which spread the risk and benefited the company’s growth as it lessened the risk from future recognized revenue.

NATURE OF BUSINESS Industry Overview The overall Thai economy and GDP grew by 7.8% in 2010, despite adverse factors, such as internal political situation or risks from the European financial crisis. The main reasons were the recovery of the global economy and domestic demands, particularly private investment and consumer consumption, which expanded by 13.8% and 4.8% respectively. The export sector also grew by 28.5% in dollar term, while the manufacturing sector grew by 13.9%, including manufacturing related activities. The tourism sector, such as hotel and restaurant, grew by 8.4%. The only contraction was the agricultural sector, which was affected by drought at the beginning of the year and flood at the end of 2010. It contracted by 2.2% Gross Domestic Product (GDP) 10.0%

In 2011, the Office of National Economic and Social Development Board estimates that the Thai economy will grow by 3.5%-4.5%, which is a slowdown from 7.8% in 2010. The supporting factors are better global economy, increase consumer income, including the increase in the salary of civil servants and wages in the private sector. The income of farmers is also expected to rise from the increase in agricultural prices. However, there are still some factors that needed to be cautious about, particularly pressure from increase in inflation from higher oil prices, shortage of labour in some industry and the fluctuation in fund movement, which can have an effect on the stability of the Baht currency, stock market and real estate business. In general the inflation in 2010 was 3.3% with food and beverage and non-food and beverage indices increased by 5.4% respectively. The Government’s 15-year free education measure had reduced educational expenditures, comprising books, educational equipment and school uniforms. In 2010, it is estimated that the inflation will be around 2.8%-3.8%. The consumer consumption is estimated to increase by 4.0%, while private investment is estimated to increase by 8.5%. The export value in dollar term is estimated to increase by 12.5% and the current account is estimated to have a surplus of around 3.5% of GDP, a decrease from 4.6% of GDP in 2010.

The latest in January 2011, the Bank of Thailand announced an increase in interest rate by 0.25 points to 2.25% per annum to reduce the increase in the inflationary pressure from continuing expansion in domestic and international demands. While the prices of oil and commodities continue to increase.

In 2010, although the Thai economy grew by 7.8% but the overall building materials index increased only slightly. The building materials index increased from 110.8 in 2009 to 113.3 in 2010. While the cement index decreased from 112.8 in 2009 to 204.2 in 2010 and concrete product index decreased from 103.8 in 2009 to 102.5 in 2010, partly due to unfavourable global economy, risks from financial crisis, property crisis in the Middle East and the financial crisis in some European countries. The iron and steel index was the only one that increased, from 103.6 in 2009 to 110.9 in 2011.

Condominium Market Trend According to the data from Thailand’s Real Estate Information Centre, Agency for Real Estate Affairs, in 2010 there were 429 new projects in Bangkok Metropolitan Area with a total of 115,748 units worth Baht 299,036 million, the most in 16 years (the most new project launched was Baht 400,000 million in 1994). Residential property was the most new project launched with 424 projects, 114,150 units and worth Baht 291,743 million or an average price of Baht 2.556 million per unit, while other type of property launched only Baht 7,293 million over the past year. Of these new projects, condominium was the most to be launched with 154 projects, followed by town house with 153 projects, detached house with 93 projects, semi-detached house with 38 projects, commercial building with 27 projects and plots of land with 3 projects. There were some projects with mixed types. An interesting note was new town house project had increased in 2010. However, from 114,150 units of residential property, condominium was the most launched at 54.7%, followed by town house at 26.8%, detached house at 14.4%, semi-detached house at 3.2%, commercial building at 0.8% and land plots at only 0.1% or 117 plots. The reason for a small number for land plots was that most financial institutions were reluctant to lend in the case of empty land plots. These figures showed that condominium continued to have the highest market share.

25

Annual Report 2010


The reason for the average price per residential unit of baht 2.556 million was because 41% out of the 114,450 units were prices in the Baht 1-2 million range. The residential unit with price less than Baht 2 million accounted for 58% of the total residential units, while there were only 1,176 units or 1% of the total residential units with the price of more than Baht 10 million, both condominium and detached house. More in depth report found that condominium with price of Baht 1-2 million was the most type to be launched with 27,800 units, while 16,900 units of town house with the same price range were launched. It can be said that the average price of residential unit in 2010 in Thailand was even less than in the residential price in Phnom Penh (Baht 3.0 million) and Ho Chi Minh City (Baht 4.5 million). When compared to 2009, new projects in 2010 increased by almost double (98%) in term of number of units and 50% in term of projects. This showed that there were more large project launched, while the value of the new development also increased by 59%. The large increase in number of new projects was one of the signs of growing economy. However, it also provided a warning index against potential over supply in the near future. The average price of new residential unit of Baht 2.556 million in 2010 was lower than Baht 3.177 million in 2009. It showed the focus in producing cheaper unit to persuade more buyers, which could be considered as a kind of bubble condition. However, the bubble has not burst, unless more projects are launched over the next few years. In 2011, it is estimated that there will be the similar number of new projects launched as in 2010. Investors, developers and buyer should beware of potential bubble condition that may have an effect in 2012. However, the high-end condominium market in 2011 should be at a similar level as in 2010. This is due to the developers place their focus on meeting the residential needs of the real demand and therefore are more cautious. There should not be much of a bubble condition for high-end condominium. There are only risks from impending increase in construction cost, fluctuation in global economy and oil prices.

Risk Factors Business Risks Risk from land procurement policy for future project development

The company does not have a policy to hold assets or lands, which are not ready to be developed. The company would plan to procure sufficient lands for a development cycle (2-3 years). The company would consider the location of each plot of land to suit the target customer before starting the development. The company therefore did not have many plots of land in stock for future development. By using this policy, there was a risk that the company might have some problems in procuring land for future developments. However, the company believed that holding lands in stock for future development might create direct risk and increase the development cost from the fund required to procure the lands. Also the development of a condominium project required less amount of land than other residential projects and was therefore easier to procure the required land. The wide network the company had also help in the procurement of land in good location at a reasonable price. The company also had a policy to develop projects in prime area that was not limited to the CBD area, for example; Hua Hin, Pattaya Beach. The risk in procuring land was therefore at an acceptable level.

Risk from the fluctuation in the building material price

From the trade economic statistics, if we use the price index in 2005 as a basement, the price of building materials had decreased from 113.3 in 2010, a slightly decreased from 110.8 in 2009. Most of the building material prices stayed at the same level when comparing with the last year (only the metal and the metal products price index that were increased from the 103.6 to 110.9). However there are many signs that indicate of index increasing. An increased of the price of building materials had a direct impact on the company’s construction cost and profit. However, the procurement of building materials could be divided into 2 parts; main building materials and building materials procured by the company. The main building materials, such as bricks, aggregate, cement, sand and steel etc., were procured by the contractor, calculated as part of the construction contract. Therefore, if the costs of the main building materials increased during the construction period, it would not have any impact to the company. The contractor would take all the risk. As for the building materials procured by the company, such as countable items with high per unit price liked lift, sanitary wares, generators etc., they accounted for only 8%-10% of the total construction cost for each project. Therefore if the prices of these items that the company had not agreed to the procurement contract increased, it would only have a minimal impact on the company’s operating profit.

Risk from having one type of product

At this moment, the company only developed high-end residential condominiums. There were therefore risks from the uncertainty in economy or political issues, which had direct impact on the confidence and purchasing power of the consumers. The change in requirement of the target customers to other kinds of projects could have some impact on the company’s profit. However, the company did not have the policy to focus developing only high-end residential condominium but also seek opportunities to develop other kinds of project that could contribute to the growth of the company, such as serviced apartment or hotel etc. 29

Annual Report 2010


The company had therefore established subsidiary companies to pursue business opportunities in these projects. Especially the hotel services that the company will start the operation within 2011. The company continued to follow the market closely and to seek market opportunities for other types of projects

Risk from having the Poolvoralaks Group as the major shareholder

The Poolvoralaks Group was the major shareholder of the Company, holding 72.12% of the total shares (as of 17 June 2010). The Poolvoralaks Group therefore controlled almost all of the decisions at the shareholders meeting, except those requiring three quarter majority. It was therefore difficult for other shareholders to collectively mount check-and-balance votes on issues proposed by the shareholders. However, the company had appointed 3 independent directors and auditor committee to review and check so that there was no conflict of interest and for the transparency in the management of the company. The majority shareholding by a group also lessened the risk of takeover by other persons, even though other shareholders might see an opportunity to increase the company’s worth.

External Risks Risk from interest rates

As of 31 December 2010, the company had a total debt of Baht 5,496.00 million (consolidated), with interest bearing debt accounted for Baht 3,516.12 million. The company’s interest bearing debt to equity ratio was 1.41 times, a slightly improve from previous year. The loans, which were used to develop various projects, had floating interest rates. Even though the interest rates were on a flattening trend, but in the future the interest rates could be increased, that could have direct impact on the cost of project development. However, most of our project constructions almost completed and waiting for transfer to our customer that could help us to reduce a lot of project loan and would help to reduce the debt burden ratio.

Risk from the change in policies from relevant government agencies

The changes in policies from relevant agencies such as city planning law, useable area for housing estate, floor area ratio or environmental impact assessment, especially for high-rise building attributed to the project risk. The company reduced these risks by studying in detailed the changes in the policies of relevant agencies and conducted feasibility studies of every projects, taking into account the new rules and regulations. All of the Company’s projects under construction had received necessary permissions from all relevant government agencies. Any changes in relevant laws should not impact those projects that are under construction.

Report of Independent Auditor

To the Shareholders of Major Development Public Company Limited I have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Major Development Public Company Limited and its subsidiaries as at 31 December 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the separate financial statements of Major Development Public Company Limited for the same periods. These financial statements are the responsibility of the management of the Company and subsidiaries as to their correctness and the completeness of the presentation. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audits. I conducted my audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. I believe that my audits provide a reasonable basis for my opinion. In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Major Development Public Company Limited and its subsidiaries and of Major Development Public Company Limited as at 31 December 2010 and 2009, and the results of their operations and cash flows for the years then ended, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

3. Adoption of new accounting standards

During the current year, the Federation of Accounting Professions issued a number of revised and new accounting standards as listed below. a) Accounting standards that are effective for fiscal years beginning on or after 1 January 2011 (except Framework for the Preparation and Presentation of Financial Statements, which is immediately effective): Framework for the Preparation and Presentation of Financial Statements (revised 2009) TAS 1 (revised 2009) Presentation of Financial Statements TAS 2 (revised 2009) Inventories TAS 7 (revised 2009) Statement of Cash Flows TAS 8 (revised 2009) Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors TAS 10 (revised 2009) Events after the Reporting Period TAS 11 (revised 2009) Construction Contracts TAS 16 (revised 2009) Property, Plant and Equipment TAS 17 (revised 2009) Leases TAS 18 (revised 2009) Revenue TAS 19 Employee Benefits TAS 23 (revised 2009) Borrowing Costs TAS 24 (revised 2009) Related Party Disclosures TAS 26 Accounting and Reporting by Retirement Benefit Plans TAS 27 (revised 2009) Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements TAS 28 (revised 2009) Investments in Associates TAS 29 Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies TAS 31 (revised 2009) Interests in Joint Ventures TAS 33 (revised 2009) Earnings per Share TAS 34 (revised 2009) Interim Financial Reporting TAS 36 (revised 2009) Impairment of Assets TAS 37 (revised 2009) Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets TAS 38 (revised 2009) Intangible Assets 74

b) Accounting standards that are effective for fiscal years beginning on or after 1 January 2013: TAS 20 (revised 2009) Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance TAS 21 (revised 2009) The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates The Company’s management believes that these accounting standards will not have any significant impact on the financial statements for the year when they are initially applied, except for the following accounting standards which management expects the impact on the financial statements in the year when they are adopted.

TAS 12 Income Taxes

This accounting standard requires an entity to identify temporary differences, which are differences between the carrying amount of an asset or liability in the accounting records and its tax base, and to recognise deferred tax assets and liabilities under the stipulated guidelines. At present, the management is evaluating the impact on the financial statements in the year when this standard is adopted.

TAS 18 (revised 2009) Revenue

This accounting standard requires entities to recognise revenue from sale of goods, which includes real estate developed for sale, when significant risks and rewards are transferred to the buyer. Currently, the Company can elect to use the percentage-ofcompletion method in recognising revenue from real estate sales. The change in this accounting policy in 2011 will have the effect of decreasing the beginning balance of retained earnings by Baht 468 million.

TAS 19 Employee Benefits

This accounting standard requires employee benefits to be recognised as expense in the period in which the service is performed by the employee. In particular, an entity has to evaluate and make a provision for post-employment benefits using actuarial techniques. Currently, the Company accounts for such employee benefits when they are incurred. At present, the management is evaluating the impact on the financial statements in the year when this standard is adopted.

4. Significant accounting policies 4.1 Revenue recognition from sales of units in condominium projects Sales of units in condominium projects are recognised as revenue under the percentage-of-completion method when contracts to purchase and to sell condominium units have been executed for not less than 40% of the area opened for sales, initial payments have been received totaling at least 20% of the sales price under the contract, and development of the project is at least 10% complete. The percentage of completion is determined based on the proportion of the actual cost already incurred up to the end of the period to the total anticipated development costs to be incurred to completion, excluding the cost of land. No income is recognised from contracts for which installments are overdue for more than 3 continuous periods, and for which the percentage of completion of construction work exceeds the percentage of total payment received. 75

Annual Report 2010


4.2 Cost of units in condominium projects sold In determining the cost of units in condominium projects sold, the total anticipated development costs (which include considerations of actual costs incurred) are allocated to the units already sold on the basis of the selling price and then recognised as cost in the income statement on a percentage of completion basis. Development costs are stated at cost, consisting of cost of land, design fees, utilities, construction and related interest.

4.3 Selling expenses Selling expenses directly associated with projects, such as specific business tax and transfer fees are charged to income statement in proportion to the percentage of total revenue recognised.

4.4 Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash in hand and at banks, and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of 3 months or less and not subject to withdrawal restrictions.

4.5 Trade accounts receivable Trade accounts receivable are stated at the net realisable 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.

4.6 Land and construction in progress Land and construction in progress are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The details of cost calculation are as follows: Land - Land consists of the cost of land and the related expenses for acquired land on the actual cost incurred, calculating it separately for each project. Construction in progress - Construction in progress consists of the cost of design fees, construction, public utility costs and interest capitalised to cost of projects. The Company and its subsidiaries record cost of construction in progress based on the actual cost incurred.

4.7 Investments in subsidiaries Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for in the separate financial statements using the cost method.

4.8 Property, plant and equipment and depreciation Land is stated at cost. Building 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. Office building 4 ป Condominium units 20 ป Temporary buildings and temporary building improvement 2 - 5 ป Office building improvement and other fixed assets 5 ป 76

Major Development Public Company Limited


Depreciation is included in determining income. No depreciation is provided on land and construction in progress. 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 disposal of an asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the income statement when the asset is derecognised.

4.9 Intangible assets Intangible assets acquired through business combination are initially recognised at their fair value on the date of business acquisition while acquired intangible assets are measured at cost. Following initial recognition, the intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortised 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 amortisation period and the amortisation method of such intangible assets are reviewed at least at each financial year end. The amortisation expense is charged to the income statement. Computer software has useful life of 10 years

4.10 Land awaiting development Land awaiting development is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

4.11 Related party transactions Related parties comprise enterprises and individuals that control, or are controlled by, the Company, whether directly or indirectly, or which are under common control with the Company. They also include associated companies and individuals which directly or indirectly own a voting interest in the Company that gives them significant influence over the Company, key management personnel, and directors and officers with authority in the planning and direction of the Company’s operations.

4.12 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 capitalised as part of the cost of the respective assets. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period they are incurred. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds.

4.13 Long-term leases Leases of property, plant or equipment which transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalised 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. Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense in the income statement on a straight line basis over the lease term. 77

Annual Report 2010


4.14 Impairment of assets At each reporting date, the Company and its subsidiaries perform impairment reviews in respect of the property, plant and equipment and intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an asset may be impaired. An impairment loss is recognised when the recoverable amount of an asset, which is the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and its value in use, is less than the carrying amount. In determining 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. In determining fair value less costs to sell, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by a valuation model that, based on information available, reflects the amount that the Company and its subsidiaries could obtain from the disposal of the asset in an arm’s length transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties, after deducting the costs of disposal. An impairment loss is recognised in the income statement.

4.15 Employee benefits Salaries, bonuses and contributions to the social security fund and provident fund are recognised as expenses when incurred.

4.16 Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Company and its subsidiaries have 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.

4.17 Income tax Income tax is provided in the accounts at the amount expected to be paid to the taxation authorities, based on the taxable profits determined in accordance with tax legislation.

5. 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 from these estimates. Significant judgments and estimates are as follows:

Lease

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.

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.

78

Major Development Public Company Limited


Property plant and equipment and 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 and its subsidiaries’ 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.

Intangible assets

The initial recognition and measurement of 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.

Litigation

The Company has contingent liabilities as a result of litigation. The Company’s management has used judgment to assess of the results of the litigation and believes that no loss will result. Therefore no contingent liabilities are recorded as at the balance sheet date.

23. Provident fund

The Company and its employees have jointly established a provident fund in accordance with the Provident Fund Act B.E. 2530. Both employees and the Company contributed to the fund monthly at the rates of 3% to 10% of basic salary. The fund which is managed by Thai Military Bank Public Company Limited will be paid to employees upon termination in accordance with the fund rules. During the year 2010, the Company contributed Baht 2.8 million (2009: Baht 2.5 million) to the fund.

24. Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income for the year by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income for the year by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year plus the weighted average number of ordinary shares which would need to be issued to convert all dilutive potential ordinary shares into ordinary shares. The calculation assumes that the conversion took place either at the beginning of the year or on the date the potential ordinary shares were issued. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share: Consolidated financial statements Weighted average Earnings per share Net income number of ordinary shares 2010 2009 2010 2009 2010 2009

The lawsuits are currently in the process of being investigated by the Court of First Instance, the Appeal Court and the Office of Arbitration. The management believes that no material liabilities are likely to arise as a result of the above litigations and therefore no provision has been made in the accounts.

28. Financial instruments 28.1 Financial risk management

The Company and its subsidiaries’ financial instruments, as defined under Thai Accounting Standard No. 107 “Financial Instruments: Disclosure and Presentations”, principally comprise cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable and payable, loans lending, liabilities under finance lease agreements, short-term loans and long-term loans. The financial risks associated with these financial instruments and how they are managed are described below. 94

Major Development Public Company Limited


Credit risk

The Company and its subsidiaries are exposed to credit risk primarily with respect to trade accounts receivable and other receivables. The Company manages the risk by adopting appropriate credit control policies and procedures and therefore does not expect to incur material financial losses. In addition, the Company and its subsidiaries do not have high concentrations of credit risk since they have a large customer base. The maximum exposure to credit risk is limited to the carrying amounts of trade accounts receivable and other receivables as stated in the balance sheet.

Interest rate risk

The Company and its subsidiaries’ exposure to interest rate risk relates primarily to their deposits at banks, loans lending, overdrafts, liabilities under finance lease agreements, short-term and long-term borrowings. However, since most of these financial assets and liabilities bear floating interest rates or fixed interest rates which are close to the current market rate, the interest rate risk is expected to be minimal. Significant financial assets and liabilities as at 31 December 2010 classified by type of interest rates are summarised in the table below, with those financial assets and liabilities that carry fixed interest rates further classified based on the maturity date or the repricing date if this occurs before the maturity date. Consolidated financial statements

Fixed interest rates within 1 year Financial assets Cash and cash equivalents Trade accounts receivable Pledged deposits at banks Financial liabilities Bank overdrafts and short-term loans from financial institutions Trade accounts payable Liabilities under finance lease agreements Long-term loans from financial institutions Long-term loan from director Long-term loans from minority shareholders of subsidiary

Foreign currency risk

As at 31 December 2010 the Company and its subsidiaries have no significant financial instruments in foreign currency.

28.2 Fair values of financial instruments

Since the majority of the Company and its subsidiaries’ financial instruments are short-term in nature, loans receivable and payable bear interest rates which are close to the market rate, their fair values are not expected to be materially different from the amounts presented in the balance sheets. A fair value is the amount for which an asset can be exchanged or a liability settled between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm’s length transaction. The fair value is determined by reference to the market price of the financial instrument or by using an appropriate valuation technique, depending on the nature of the instrument.

29. Segment information

The Company’s and its subsidiaries’ business operations involve 2 principal segments: (1) development of properties for sales and (2) hotel business and related services. These operations are mainly carried on in Thailand. Below is the consolidated financial information of the Company and its subsidiaries by segment.

Under the said contract, the subsidiary company had a commitment to pay the management fee at a rate of 1% of the revenue after deducting designated expenses and an incentive fee at the rate of 6% of gross profit from the operation. On 22 November 2010, the Company entered into an addendum agreement to the loan agreement of a commercial bank in Thailand.

At the end of 2009, the Company had shareholders’ equity amounted to Baht 2,396.19 million, an increase of Baht 196.61 million from the end of 2008 or an increase of 8.94%.

The increase was due to better Company’s performance with increase in appropriate retained earning amounting to Baht 82.18 million and increase in un-appropriated earnings to Baht 983.62 million. In addition the Company’s ordinary shares and premium on ordinary shares increased to Baht 8.12million because during 2010 the shareholders exercised their right to buy ordinary shares during the 1st offering totaling 4.25 million shares. Appropriateness of equity structure As of 31 December from 2008 to 2010, the Company had a debt-to-equity ratio of 2.67 times, 2.47 times and 2.21 times respectively. The main reason for the increase in the ratio in 2008 was because of the loan that the Company used to continue to develop projects, including 2 new projects in Phyathai and Suriwong areas. In 2009, the said ration decreased due to the pay back of loans from the transfer of ownership in various projects comprising Watermark Chaophraya River Tower A and B, Manhattan Chidlom, Wind Sukhumvit 23 (Soi Prasarnmitr) and Mykonos Hua Hin. In 2010, the said ratio decreased due to the pay back of loans from the transfer of ownership in various projects comprising Watermark Chaophraya River Tower A and B, Manhattan Chidlom, Wind Sukhumvit 23 (Soi Prasarnmitr), Wind Ratchayothin and Aguston Sukhumvit 22. In addition, the Company drew down addition loans for the development of projects where construction had started. Part of the loan was also used to acquire lands for development of new projects. However, as the loan pay back amount was more than the loan draw down coupled with the increase in shareholders’ equity, the Company’s debt-to-equity ratio in 2010 had therefore decreased. In considering the interest bearing debt of the Company, the debt-to-equity ratio was 1.73 times, 1.68 times and 1.41 times at the end of 2008, 2009 and 2010 respectively. The reason for the increase in the said ration in 2008 was the launching of 3 new projects, which the Company used part of the loans to acquire lands for 2 of the said projects. In addition, the Company drew down additional loan for the construction of Wind Sukhumvit 23 (Soi Prasarnmitr), Wind Ratchayothin and 108

Aguston Sukhumvit 22. The reduction in the debt-to-equity ratio from 1.73 times to 1.68 times in 2009 was due to the increase in the Company’s total liabilities was less than the increase in shareholders’ equity, which was due to increase in retained earnings. While the reduction in the debt-to-equity ratio from 1.68 times in 2009 to 1.41 times in 2010 was due to the increase in loan pay back during the year was higher that the loan draw down coupled with the increase in shareholders’ equity resulting from the exercising of the rights to buy ordinary shares during the Company’s 1st offering and the increase in retained earnings. The improvement of these figures reflected the lower risk and the higher strength of the Company. Cash flow statement In 2008, the Company used the cash flow for its operation to the amount of Baht 1,414.65 million due to additional development of projects under construction. In addition the Company had deposits and advance payment from the customers from sales of project mentioned earlier in the separate financial statements and the subsidiary company started to develop Royce Private Residences. The cash flow used in the operations shown in the consolidated statement was therefore more than those shown in the separate financial statements. The total cash flow used in the Company’s investment showed a deficit of Baht 314.08 million, which was mostly used in the construction of sales offices and sample units. As for the cash flow used in fund raising events of Baht 1,384.53 million, this was due to the Company receiving loans from financial institutions to the amount of Baht 2,898.96 million, resulting in the increase in net cash of Baht 47.84 million at the end of 2008. In 2009, the Company used cash flow for its operations to the amount of Baht 1.64 million due to a significant increase in turning works under construction into costs than in previous year. This reduced the amount in the cash flow. As for the cash flow used in fund raising events of Baht 11.12 million, this was due to the Company receiving loans from financial institutions to the amount of Baht 2,432.8 million and the loan pay back of Baht 2,320.70 million, resulting in the increase in net cash of Baht 53.99 million at the end of 2009. In 2010, the Company had net cash flow from its operations to the amount of Baht 788.88 million due to the Company increased the transfer of ownerships to the customers. This resulted in increase in cash received. The Company used the said cash to acquire lands to develop additional projects, namely Equinox Phahol-Vibha and M Ladprao, to pay back loans and to invest in the construction of hotels of the subsidiary company and the Liquidity ratio In 2008, the Company had a current ratio of 2.16 times, a decrease compared to 2007 due to the increase in new project development, which required more current assets and hence significantly increased the current liability. This resulted in the slightly decrease in the quick ratio of 0.56 times in 2008. In 2009, the Company had a current ratio of 1.77 times, a decrease compared to 2008 due to the increase in new project development, which required more current assets and hence significantly increased the current liability. This resulted in the slightly decrease in the quick ratio of 0.49 times in 2009. The increase in current liability was mainly from loans were due within one year. Because these loans were used to develop projects and the constructions were almost completed and ready to transfer the ownership to the customers, the loan due date for those projects were therefore less than one year. However, once the ownerships were transferred to the customers, the current liability should decrease resulting in better liquidity ratio. In 2010, the Company had a current ratio of 1.80 times, an increase compared to 2009 due to the increase in the ownership transfer to the customers, resulting in the high loan pay back amount and hence the increase in the said ratio. The Company used cash to develop new projects, which resulted in a quick ratio of 0.32, a decrease compared to 2009 109
