SAUDI CERAMIC COMPANY (A Saudi Joint Stock Company) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2008 AND 2007
1.
ORGANIZATION AND ACTIVITY Saudi Ceramic Company, (the Company) is a Saudi Joint Stock Company established by the Royal Decree No. (M/16) on 25/4/1397H (corresponding to 14/4/1977G), registered in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia under Commercial Registration No. 1010014590 issued in Riyadh on 15/2/1398H (corresponding to 24/1/1978G). The Company is engaged in the production and sale of ceramic products, water heaters and their components. The Company is also involved in the import of related machineries, equipments and other accessories. The authorized and fully paid-up capital of the Company is SR 250 million, divided into 25 million shares of SR 10 each. The financial year of the Company commences on January 1, and ends on December 31 of each calendar year.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The accompanying financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention (except for investments in available for-sale financial instruments which are measured at fair value) on the accrual basis of accounting, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable in Saudi Arabia. Significant accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements are summarized below:
Accounting Estimates The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires the use of estimates and judgments which might effect the valuation of recorded assets, liabilities and the disclosure of contingencies at the balance sheet date. Although these estimates are based on the best information available to management at the date of issuing these financial statements, the actual end results might immaterially differ from those estimates. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, balances and deposits with banks, and other highly liquid investments with maturities of 90 days or less from its purchase date. Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable is stated net of provision. Provision is made for accounts receivable where recovery is considered doubtful based on the Company’s approved policy. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined, on a weighted average cost basis. Cost of finished goods and work in process includes cost of materials, labor and an appropriate proportion of indirect overheads. Provisions for slow-moving and obsolete inventory are estimated based on the Company’s approved policy. As a result of the large expansions in the Company’s plants during this year, which were accompanied with the supply of related major spare parts, management decided to change the accounting policy related to recognition of spare parts which are considered major parts of the plants’ machinery and equipment, such as strategic and stand-by parts, to be recorded as plant and equipment instead of inventory. The total value of those parts as of December 31, 2007, amounted to about SR. 9.8 million. This change in policy was not applied retroactively, as management believe the affect is immaterial on the Company’s financial statement as a whole. 4

Investments in Associates Investments in associates where the Company has significant influence over the investee’s financial and operation policies, or where the Company has a long-term investment between 20% and 50% of the equity, is accounted for using the equity method. Under the equity method, the investment is stated initially at cost and adjusted thereafter for the post acquisition changes in the net assets of the associates. The Company’s share of profit in the associate company is recognized in the income statement. Investments in Financial Instruments Investments in (available for sale) securities, which are neither held to maturity or for trading, are valued at fair value and are classified as non-current assets, unless the intention is to sell it in the following year. Changes in fair value of available for sale securities are taken to equity as a separate item. Permanent impairment, if any, of such investment is recognized directly in the income statement. Revenues from such investments are recognized when declared. Fair value is determined by reference to the market value when an active trading market is available; else, if no active market is available, cost is considered the best substitute to fair value. If part of the investment is sold, cost is determined on weighted average basis. Capitalization of Financing Costs The net financing cost of the Company’s borrowings, is capitalized on qualified projects which require a substantial period of time to construct. Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Expenditure on maintenance and repairs is expensed, while expenditure for betterment is capitalized. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the applicable assets using the straight line method. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the estimated useful life or the remaining term of the lease. Property and equipment sold or otherwise disposed off and their related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts at the time of disposal and the related gain or loss is recognized in the income statement. The estimated operational useful lives are as follows: Years Buildings Machinery, equipment and spare parts Vehicles and transportation equipments Furniture, fixture and office equipment Leasehold improvements

Employees’ End of Service Benefits Employees’ end of service benefits are provided for based on Saudi Arabian Labour Law and according to the employees' service duration. Zakat Zakat is accrued in accordance with the regulations of the Department of Zakat and Income Tax in KSA.

Expenses Sales and marketing expenses represent salaries and wages of the sales and distribution employees, marketing campaigns, sales costs and similar expenses. All other expenses not related to production or sales are classified as general and administrative expenses. Shared expenses are allocated between selling and general expenses using consistent basis.
Statutory Reserve In accordance with Regulations for Companies in Saudi Arabia and the companys’ articles of association, the company has established a statutory reserve by the appropriation of 10% of annual net income, this appropriation continues until the reserve equals 50% of the share capital, then it can be stopped. This reserve can not be distributed as dividends. Foreign Currency Translation The Company are maintained its accounts in Saudi Riyals, foreign currency transactions are translated into Saudi Riyals at the rates of exchange prevailing at the time of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at that date. Gains and losses from settlement and translation of foreign currency transactions are included in the statement of income. Earnings per Share Earning per share is calculated using the weighted average of the shares outstanding during the period. 3.
