strategic goals, ensuring the necessary financial and resources are in place for the Company to meet its goals, setting the

met.

A schedule of formal matters reserved for the Board’s decision and approval is detailed in our Board Charter which is available
on our website, at www.bumiarmada.com. The last date of review of our Board Charter was in early 2019.

• Overall leadership of the Company and setting the Company’s values and standards.
• Determining the Company’s strategy in consultation with management, reviewing performance against it, and overseeing
management execution thereof.

The Board receives timely, regular and necessary financial, management and other information to fulfil its duties. Board and
Board Committees' papers are circulated to Board and Committees' members in a timely manner before each meeting and
the Board receives regular reports from the CEO. In addition to meeting papers, a library of current and historical corporate
information is made available to Directors electronically to support the Board’s decision-making process. The Board has agreed

incurred in seeking independent professional advice are to be borne by the Company. Where the expenses exceed RM50,000,
the Chairman’s approval is required. All Directors have access to the advice and services of the Company Secretaries.

To the extent that Directors who are unable to attend scheduled meetings, or additional meetings called on short notice,
they will receive the papers in advance and relay their comments to the Chairman for communication at the meeting. The

Dear Shareholders,

On behalf of the Board and in my capacity as the Chairman of the

report for the year under review.

The Remuneration Committee (“RC”) is responsible, on behalf of the Board, for


setting the senior executives’ remuneration policy and actual remuneration. The
Committee reviews the design of all share incentive plans for approval by the
Board and shareholders; approves the design of, and recommended targets
for any performance-related pay schemes the Company operates for senior

and takes into account their views when setting the policy.

The objectives of the policy are to ensure that executive rewards are linked to
performance, to provide an incentive to achieve the key business aims, deliver an
appropriate link between reward and performance and to maintain a reasonable
relationship of rewards to those offered in other competitor companies in order to
attract, retain and motivate executives within a framework of what is acceptable
to shareholders. We maintain a strong focus on ensuring that executives are
incentivised to drive economic profit as well as being rewarded for creating

SUMMARY OF THE WORK DONE BY THE AC FOR FY2018

Financial Reporting

• Reviewed the quarterly results for announcements to Bursa Securities before recommending the same for approval by 03
the Board. This was done upon being satisfied that the reporting has complied with the applicable approved MFRS
issued by the Malaysian Accounting Standards Board (“MASB”), MMLR and other relevant regulatory requirements.
• Reviewed the Company’s annual and quarterly management accounts.
• Reviewed the audited financial statements of the Group prior to submission to the Board for the Board’s consideration
and approval upon the AC being satisfied that, inter alia, the audited financial statements were drawn up in accordance
with the provisions of the CA2016 and the applicable approved MFRS issued by MASB.
• The AC also reviewed the status of accounting provisions and estimates, changes in accounting policies and significant
judgemental accounting matters affecting its interim and audited financial statements.
• Detailed review of the impairments that were made during the financial year.

The AC reviewed significant accounting and auditing matters with a focus on the following:

Liquidity position of The liquidity position of the Group and the underlying assumptions for the Group’s
the Group cash flow forecast for the next 12 months were presented and reviewed by the
AC in detail. The Group has just completed the refinancing of its Term Loan and
Revolving Credit corporate debt in order to better align the Group's corporate debt
profile with the cash flow profile of the Group's main FPO business.

The Group is also monitoring cash flows very closely to ensure that all obligations
can be met.

The Group has also embarked on an asset divestment plan of the OMS business.
The AC has considered the funding plans for the Group to meet its obligations
that are due in the next 12 months and agree that the assessments and plan of
management seem reasonable.

Assessment of The Group has assessed the recoverable amount of Armada Kraken based on the
Armada Kraken value-in-use (“VIU”) model. The VIU supports a lower recoverable amount as at
31 December 2018 which has resulted in an impairment charge of RM1,613.2
million for this financial year. Management provided estimates on vessel
availability, expected lease term and discount rates. These were reviewed by the
EA and presented to the AC who agreed with the assessment.

Impairment assessment of Due to the continued depressed market conditions that have resulted in continued
Offshore Marine Services low utilisation and day rates during the financial year, management has performed
(“OMS”) assets an impairment assessment. The recoverable amounts were determined based
on the expected recovery of the carrying amounts of the OSV assets which has
resulted in an impairment loss of RM586.5 million being recognised during the
financial year. For the SC assets, no impairment was recognised. This has been
reviewed by the EA and presented to the AC who agreed with the assessment.

Audit Committee Report

Recoverability of trade Management has assessed the lifetime expected credit loss of trade receivables
receivables using the simplified approach incorporating credit rating buckets, expected loss
rates, forward looking information and probability weighted estimates. As at
31 December 2018, the Group’s total receivables prior to loss allowance was RM1.2
billion of which RM404.9 million has been provided for as loss allowance. Based
on presentation and information that have been provided to the AC by management
coupled with discussions with the EA, the AC is satisfied with the assessment of trade
receivables.

Recoverability of amount The material litigation is still on going. Management in consultation with external
in relation to the Armada counsel have considered the facts of the case at present and remain optimistic of a
Claire litigation favourable outcome of the litigation. The AC has discussed this issue in depth with
Management and the EA and is satisfied with this conclusion.

Recoverability of amounts No additional loss allowances were made during the financial year as management
due from subsidiaries expects that the subsidiaries can meet their obligations to repay balances based
and cost of investments in on the availability of net current assets as at the financial year end and/or that
subsidiaries there are sufficient future cash flows from the subsidiaries to settle the outstanding
balances. The EA has also evaluated these assumptions and cash flows. Based on
these reviews and representations the AC is satisfied with the reasonableness of the
residual cash flows.

INTERNAL AUDIT

The internal audit process for the Group is conducted by its IAD which has been established by the AC. The IAD is
independent of the activities it audits and audits are performed with impartiality, proficiency, and due professional care.
Internal Audit Reports are tabled at the AC meeting. The AC will review, assess and approve the internal audit plans and
programs and provides guidance to the IAD as and when necessary. The AC also reviews and monitors the responsiveness
of the management to significant audit findings and the recommendations of the IAD. To ensure that management effectively
close out all significant audit findings in a timely manner, the AC has directed that part of the management’s annual key
performance indicators include the proper close out of key audit findings.

The IAD attempts to assist the Group in accomplishing its goals by bringing a systematic and disciplined approach to
evaluate and improve the effectiveness of the various processes and controls within the Group. The IAD maintains its
impartiality and proficiency and due professional care by having its plans and reports directly under the purview of the AC.

The Audits conducted for the BAB Group during the financial year under review were:

Audits conducted:

1. Human Resources
2. Vietnam Operations
3. Aberdeen Operations
4. Time Sheet review
5. Commercial – Proposals
6. Professional Fees analysis and review
7. Supply Chain
8. Kraken – specific financials review in relation to the bareboat charter contract and the operations and maintenance
contract

Apart from the audits that are listed above, there were ad-hoc reviews and investigative reviews that were conducted by
IAD throughout the year. An outcome from the planned audit and ad-hoc / investigative reviews performed were findings
around the areas of supply chain process governance and controls, documentation and contract management, financial
process improvements, improvements in CAPEX build up and gate reviews and inventory management. These areas are all
being monitored closely via the monitoring mechanism and improvements have already been noted.

The reports from any reviews performed by the IAD are also shared with the head of that BU, the CEO and CFO. Management
is responsible for ensuring that corrective actions are taken within the stipulated time frame and all outstanding/open items
are reported.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE OVERVIEW STATEMENT

ACCOUNTABILITY
Audit Committee Report

The IAD adopts the main standards and principles outlines in the International Professional Practices Framework of The
Institute of Internal Auditors and this has been incorporated in the practical IAD methodology that is used to guide the ways
of working of the IAD.

The IAD is staffed by 5 personnel and headed by the Head of Internal Audit. These personnel come from a diverse
background of audit, engineering and finance. The IAD undertakes to ensure that the staff are competent and adequately
equipped in carrying out their duties and responsibilities by providing them with the relevant training.

Total costs incurred in FY2018 for the Group’s internal audit function amounted to RM2.3 million.

EXTERNAL AUDITORS

During FY2018, the AC assessed the EA’s performance, independence, objectivity and terms of engagement before
recommending its reappointment and remuneration. The AC Chairman together with management did an evaluation
on the EA’s performance and effectiveness which was coordinated by the Company Secretary. The assessment which
covered independence, objectivity and professional scepticism, financial stability, risk and audit strategy, communication
and interaction, audit finalisation and level of knowledge, capabilities and experience and sufficiency of resources was
conducted in March 2018. In this current cycle, this evaluation was performed by the whole AC.

In addition, the AC also reviewed the EA’s representation on its quality control procedures with respect to engagement
performance which included the involvement of a quality review partner, access to the EA’s accounting technical support on
complex accounting matters, periodic assurance quality reviews by the EA’s Global Assurance Quality Review team, internal
guidance on accounting standards interpretation and application and International Standards of Auditing guidelines.

The AC also holds private sessions with the lead engagement partner from the EA every quarter, without the presence of
management. These sessions allow the AC and the EA to focus on areas that might not have been specifically addressed
as part of the audit and where the EA can provide additional confidential comments to the AC. Some of the matters
discussed include the EA’s assessment of the tone at the top, ethical values and integrity of management, quality of financial
management and reporting, existence of pressure to meet aggressive financial targets and profitability expectations and
cooperation from various levels of management and Internal Audit.

The AC remains satisfied with the level of independence of the EA and is of the view that they have not been impaired by
any event or services that give rise to conflict of interest. The amount of non-audit fees incurred for services rendered by the
EA to the Company and its subsidiaries for the financial year ended 31 December 2018 was RM1.3 million.

MOVING FORWARD – THE AC’S KEY FOCUS FOR 2019

For FY2019, the key priorities of the AC will continue to be focused on the integrity of the Group’s financial accounting and
reporting, including all the key financial indicators taking into consideration the challenging environment that the Group
continues to operate in.

Key areas of focus will include:

• Joint Venture management reporting


• Subsidiary reporting
• Management Information Systems
• Collection initiatives
• Cash management and monitoring
• Cost Optimisation
• Process and Controls
• External audit efficacy and efficiency
• Performance and financials of Armada Kraken

STATEMENT ON RISK MANAGEMENT


AND INTERNAL CONTROL

The Board is pleased to provide this statement on Risk Management and


Internal Control which outlines the nature of risk management and internal
controls within the Bumi Armada Berhad Group for the financial year ended 31
December 2018.

The statement is made pursuant to Paragraph 15.26(B) of the MMLR where the
Board of Directors of Public Companies are required to publish a statement
about the state of internal controls.

BOARD’S RESPONSIBILITY

The Board acknowledges its responsibility for having sound risk management and strong internal controls. This responsibility

Committee. These Committees report to the Board who provide oversight on their performance.

The Group has in place an ongoing process for identifying, evaluating, monitoring and managing all significant risks
faced by the Group and continues to take measures towards enhancing the adequacy and effectiveness of the risk
management and internal control system.

There is a system of internal controls that is being applied by the Group. This system whilst addressing the inherent and
identified gaps only provides reasonable and not absolute assurance against material misstatement or losses or the
occurrence of unforeseeable circumstances.

RISK MANAGEMENT

Risk Management Committee

The RMC’s role is primarily to provide oversight and set the tone and culture towards managing key risks. The RMC
ensures that there is a Risk Management Framework which identifies significant risks and addresses them.

This Risk Management Framework includes the necessary policies and mechanisms to manage and monitor the overall
risk exposure of the Group including the need to establish a risk awareness and response culture. Additionally, the RMC
reviews the effectiveness of the Risk Management Framework and the results of risk assessments of the various business
units within the Group.

The Group has a Risk Management function which reports to the CEO and assists the RMC in discharging its responsibilities.
The BAB Group’s Enterprise Risk Management (“ERM”) Framework allows risk information flow for effective oversight of
risk management at all levels. Risks are reviewed at various levels namely the various shore base operations including
the joint ventures, Business Units (“BUs”) and the corporate departments and then at the CEO level from a collation of
Enterprise Risks standpoint before it is deliberated at the RMC and Board levels.

consistent approach for identifying, evaluating and managing the significant risks faced by the Group and facilitating a
reasonably accurate perception of the acceptable risks. Managing risks is a shared responsibility and is integrated within
the Group’s governance, business processes and operations.

The BAB ERM Framework as endorsed by the RMC contains the following key elements:

• Risk Representatives in each BU to spearhead the coordination of risk management activities. These Risk
Representatives are responsible for ensuring the timely updating of risks, controls, issues and action plans within
their own BUs. Their updates are then independently validated by the Risk Management Department.
• Specified roles and responsibilities at each level of management in the Group in relation to Risk Management.
• Guidance on risk reporting. Risk reports are prepared for the RMC and include an assessment of risk, actions to
mitigate the risk and its status.

STATEMENT ON RISK MANAGEMENT


AND INTERNAL CONTROL

Plans for 2019

In 2019, the Group will continue to focus on the key risks that have been realised and the mitigation actions to ensure
that these risks are managed to acceptable levels. Key areas of focus will be on the Armada Kraken and her operations,
the operations of the other vessels in the fleet, the capability of people in line with the strategy of the Group and the 03
financial position of the Group. In addition, we will continue to enhance and instil a risk awareness culture that has
been made difficult by the constant changes to key management and the consolidation phase that the Group is currently
experiencing. The RMC is cognisant of this challenge and is taking steps to address this. A few of the improvements
expected in 2019 are:

• In depth discussions at the RMC level focused on the key risk areas mentioned above and the progress of the key
initiatives.
• Focus on initiatives to create risk awareness and a risk response culture within the Group.
• Closer monitoring of mitigations and actions coming out of risk reviews and ensuring that this is tracked to closure.
• Refined risk reporting processes to Management and the Board to including presentations by and discussions with
the business owners of those risk areas as to what mitigation plans were in place to manage the top risks.

INTERNAL CONTROL ENVIRONMENT

Board

The Board meets at least once a quarter, in order to maintain its full and effective oversight of the overall governance
of the Group. In arriving at any decisions, based on recommendations by Management, thorough deliberations and
discussion by the Board is a prerequisite. The Board reviews all significant issues arising from changes in the business or
operating landscape of the Group which may result in significant risks.

Audit Committee

The AC comprises wholly of NED, the majority of whom are independent Directors. The AC assists the Board in fulfilling
the Board’s responsibilities by focusing on the integrity of the Group’s financial reporting process, management of
governance, financial risks, internal control systems, external and internal audit processes, compliance with legal and
regulatory matters as well as the Code. The detailed activities of the AC are detailed in the AC Report.

Internal Audit

The Board recognises that the internal audit function is an integral part of the governance process of the Group. The
Internal Audit (“IA”) function provides independent assurance on the adequacy and effectiveness of the internal control
systems implemented by the Group and reports its findings directly to the AC. The IA function reviews the Group’s system
of internal controls, its operations and selected key activities based on the risk assessment and in accordance with the
annual audit plan that is approved by the AC.

The AC receives and reviews all IA reports including the agreed actions that are to be taken in order to mitigate and close
the highlighted control gaps. All issues raised and action plans to close gaps are monitored via the monitoring mechanism
that has been developed until closure and the status is reported on a quarterly basis to the AC. The key activities of the
IA function are as set out in the AC report section of this annual report.

External Auditors

The external auditors provide the AC with a report on the internal controls environment of the Group during the 3rd quarter
and the 4th quarter of the year under review. The external auditors are also continuously challenged by the AC to provide
value added recommendations around the area of internal controls and potential enhancements that could heighten the
level of governance in the Group.

STATEMENT ON RISK MANAGEMENT


AND INTERNAL CONTROL

Organisation Structure

The organisation structure of the Group defines the formal lines of responsibility and the lines of accountability of our
Management. The structure also defines the lines of authority that is in place to assist in implementing the Group’s
strategies and day-to-day business activities. The Group has a management team that meets bi-weekly to discuss pertinent
issues. There is no longer an EXCO. This has been replaced by the RMC which also serves this role in an advisory
capacity to the CEO in accomplishing the vision, mission, strategies and objectives that have been set for the Group.

Budgeting, Monitoring & Reporting

The various BUs and departments in the Group collaborate closely to prepare the Company’s budget on an annual
basis. The budget is then subject to a review process by CFO, CEO and the relevant management team members prior
to submission to the AC and the Board for approval. The Company’s approved budget is then monitored monthly against
the actual performance of the Company. A reporting system which highlights significant variances against the budget is
in place to track and monitor performance. On a quarterly basis, the results are presented to and reviewed by the AC
and Board to enable them to gauge the Group’s overall performance against the budget and prior periods.

Limits of Authority

A documented Limits of Authority (“LOA”) with clear lines of accountability and responsibility serves as a tool of reference
to identify the appropriate approving authority at various levels of management including matters that require the
approval of the RMC, AC and the Board. The LOA is reviewed and updated periodically to reflect business, operational
and structural changes and needs.

Health, Safety, Security, Environment and Quality

The Corporate HSSEQ Department is responsible for setting the overall direction on HSSEQ implementation within the
Group and drives strategies and monitors performance to ensure HSSEQ risks are managed to as low as reasonably
practicable. During the year, the Group recorded three LTI incidents. Investigations were conducted, and corrective
actions have been taken appropriately.

The overall management of Group security falls under the purview of the Head of HSSEQ. It is the policy of the Company
to ensure the protection of all Company related interests against negative security incidents that have the potential to
adversely impact the Group’s personnel, assets and the business. Such protective activities are conducted in a manner
which commensurates with international best practice and statutory compliance. The systems and processes adopted
promote compliance with local regulations and respect for local cultures. Ultimately, the Company considers security
a major business enabler, facilitating operational integrity and business continuity across the Group’s global portfolio.

Project Sales Tender Evaluation and Approval Policy

The Group has in place a Tender Evaluation and Approval Policy to ensure that all tenders participated in by the Group
for potential contracts and projects with clients have been reviewed and evaluated for appropriate balance in risk and
reward and is consistent with the Group’s strategy and risk profile. The policy provides guidelines to mitigate risks and
unplanned events which would jeopardise the successful execution and financial outcome of projects. All proposed
tenders are required to be comprehensively and thoroughly reviewed by Management at various phases via a gate review
process in order to make an early assessment of the merits of submitting a tender, assigning appropriate management
resources setting accountabilities, procuring timely approvals, and ensuring optimum project outcome. The Company’s
LOA specifies the various authority levels for approval, with the Board having the ultimate responsibility. However, at this
point in time, there is very selective participation in tenders.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and Speak Up Policy

The Group has implemented the Code as well as the Speak Up Policy. These documents are made accessible to all
employees of the Group as well as to the public via the Group’s intranet and official website at www.bumiarmada.
com respectively. The Code places significant importance in upholding the principle of discipline, good conduct, 03
professionalism, loyalty and integrity that are critical to the success and well-being of the Group. The Code includes
policy statements on the standards of behaviour and ethical conduct expected of each individual to whom the Code
applies. The Group also expects that contractors, sub-contractors, consultants, agents and representatives and any other
entity or person performing work or services for or on behalf of any of the companies in the Group to comply with the
Code. The Code also expressly prohibits improper solicitation, bribery and other corrupt activity not only by employees
and directors but also by any third party that is performing work or services for or on behalf of any of the companies in
the Group.

In line with the Code, the Group has also revised the Speak Up Policy which provides a confidential and secure avenue
for employees and the public to disclose any improper conduct committed or about to be committed in accordance with
procedures as provided under the Policy. The Group has also implemented an independent external speak-up hotline to
receive any complaints.

ASSURANCE FROM MANAGEMENT

The CEO and CFO have provided their assurance to the RMC, the AC and the Board that the Group’s risk management
and internal control system is operating adequately and effectively in all material aspects, based on the risk management
and internal control system of the Group, for FY2018 and up to the date of approval of this statement. Based on
Management’s assurance as well as input from the relevant assurance providers, the Board is of the view that the Group’s
risk management and internal control system is operating adequately and effectively. There will also be continuous
improvement in this area and the systems and processes of the Group, as appropriate.

REVIEW OF THE STATEMENT BY THE EXTERNAL AUDITORS

As required by Paragraph 15.23 of the MMLR, the external auditors have reviewed this Statement on Risk Management
and Internal Control. Their limited assurance review was performed in accordances with Recommended Practice Guide
(“RPG”) 5 (Revised 2015) issued by the Malaysian Institute of Accountants. RPG 5 (Revised 2015) does not require the
external auditors to form an opinion on the adequacy and effectiveness of the risk management and internal control
systems of the Group.

CONCLUSION

For the year under review, and up to the date of approval of this Statement, based on inquiry, presentations during the
year and information and assurances provided by the CEO and CFO, the Board is of the view that the Group’s risk
management and internal control systems are operating adequately and effectively in all material aspects. There were no
significant internal control weaknesses that have not been reported based on the risk management and internal control
system of the Group and the internal control procedure of the Group will continue to be reviewed in order to improve and
strengthen the system to ensure adequacy, integrity and effectiveness to safeguard the Group’s assets and shareholders’
investments.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

STATUTORY INFORMATION ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Before the financial statements of the Group and of the Company were prepared, the Directors took reasonable steps:

(a) to ascertain that proper action had been taken in relation to the writing off of bad debts and the making of allowance for 04
impairment losses and satisfied themselves that all known bad debts had been written off and that adequate allowance
had been made for impairment losses; and

(b) to ensure that any current assets, other than debts, which were unlikely to be realised in the ordinary course of business,
including the values of current assets as shown in the accounting records of the Group and of the Company had been
written down to an amount which the current assets might be expected so to realise.

At the date of this report, the Directors are not aware of any circumstances:

(a) which would render the amounts written off for bad debts or the amount of the allowance for impairment losses in the
financial statements of the Group and of the Company inadequate to any substantial extent; or

(b) which would render the values attributed to current assets in the financial statements of the Group and of the Company
misleading; or

(c) which have arisen which would render adherence to the existing method of valuation of assets or liabilities of the Group
and of the Company misleading or inappropriate.

OTHER STATUTORY INFORMATION

No contingent or other liability has become enforceable or is likely to become enforceable within the period of twelve months
after the end of the financial year which, in the opinion of the Directors, will or may affect the ability of the Group and of the
Company to meet their obligations when they fall due.

At the date of this report, there does not exist:

(a) any charge on the assets of the Group and of the Company which has arisen since the end of the financial year which
secures the liability of any other person; or

(b) any contingent liability of the Group and of the Company which has arisen since the end of the financial year.

At the date of this report, the Directors are not aware of any circumstances not otherwise dealt with in this report or the financial
statements of the Group and of the Company which would render any amount stated in the financial statements misleading.

In the opinion of the Directors:

(a) the results of the Group’s and of the Company’s operations during the financial year were not substantially affected by
any item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature other than as disclosed in the financial statements; and

(b) there has not arisen in the interval between the end of the financial year and the date of this report any item, transaction
or event of a material and unusual nature likely to affect substantially the results of the operations of the Group or of the
Company for the financial year in which this report is made.

PREFACE TO THE
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Sections A to E form part of the notes to the financial statements and provide the general information, basis of preparation and
underlying considerations used in preparing the financial statements of the Group and the Company.

A GENERAL INFORMATION
04
The principal activities of the Company are investment holding and provision of management services. The principal
activities of the Group consist of provision of marine transportation, Floating Production Storage Offloading (“FPSO”)
operations, vessel construction and engineering and maintenance services to offshore oil and gas companies. Further
details are provided in Note 12 to the financial statements.

There have been no significant changes in the nature of these activities during the financial year.

The Company is incorporated and domiciled in Malaysia and is listed and quoted on the Official List of the Main Market
of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad.

The address of the registered office and principal place of business of the Company is as follows:

Level 21, Menara Perak


24, Jalan Perak
50450 Kuala Lumpur
Malaysia.

B BASIS OF PREPARATION

The financial statements of the Group and the Company have been prepared in accordance with the Malaysian Financial
Reporting Standards (“MFRS”), International Financial Reporting Standards and the requirements of the Companies Act
2016 in Malaysia.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, unless otherwise indicated in the
summary of significant accounting policies as stated in Section C.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with MFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of financial statements, and the reported amounts of 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 Section D.

As at 31 December 2018, the Group’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by RM6,092.7 million mainly due
to the following reasons:

(a) Re-classification of non-current borrowings for Armada Kraken Pte Ltd (“AKPL”) of RM1,782.9 million and Sukuk
Murabahah of RM1,499.4 million to current borrowings; and

(b) Current borrowings comprising Armada Floating Gas Storage Malta Limited (“AFGSML”) secured term loan of
RM186.5 million, unsecured term loans of RM1,578.0 million and revolving credit facilities of RM1,246.9 million.
These borrowings are expected to be refinanced via long term loans.

PREFACE TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

B BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONTINUED)

In assessing the appropriateness of a going concern basis to prepare the financial statements of the Group, the Directors
prepared a cash flow forecast for the next 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements. Based on the
cash flow forecast (which is elaborated further in Section E - Liquidity risk), the Directors are of the view that the going
concern assumption is appropriate for the preparation of the financial statements.

(a) Standards, amendments to published standards and interpretations that are effective for the Group’s and the
Company’s financial year beginning on 1 January 2018:

• MFRS 9 “Financial Instruments”


• MFRS 15 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”
• Amendments to MFRS 2 “Share-based Payment” – Classification and Measurement of Share-based Payment
Transactions
• Annual Improvements to MFRS Standards 2014 – 2016 Cycle: Amendments to MFRS 128 ”Investments in
Associates and Joint Ventures”
• IC Interpretation 22 “Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration”

The adoption of the above amendments and annual improvements to MFRS did not have any significant impact on
the financial statements of the Group and the Company, except as disclosed in Note 45.

(b) Standards, amendments to published standards and interpretations that have been issued but are not yet effective

(i) New MFRS, amendments to MFRS, annual improvements and interpretation which are applicable to the
Group effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019:

(continued)
04
(i) New MFRS, amendments to MFRS, annual improvements and interpretation which are applicable to the
Group effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019: (continued)

The adoption of the above new MFRS and interpretation did not have any significant impact on the financial
statements of the Group and the Company, except as set out below:

MFRS 16 “Leases”

MFRS 16 “Leases” (effective from 1 January 2019) supersedes MFRS 117 “Leases” and related interpretations.

Under MFRS 16, a lease is a contract (or part of a contract) that conveys the right to control the use of an
identified asset for a period of time in exchange for a consideration.

MFRS 16 introduces a single lessee accounting model and requires a lessee to recognise assets and liabilities
for all leases with a term of more than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of low value. A lessee is
required to recognise a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying leased asset and a lease
liability representing its obligation to make lease payments.

The Group has assessed the effects of applying the new standard on the Group’s financial statements and
has identified that this will impact the Group’s non-cancellable operating lease commitments. The Group
expects to recognise right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities. The right-of-use assets will be
depreciated in accordance with the principles in MFRS 116 “Property, Plant and Equipment” and lease
liabilities will be amortised over time with interest expense recognised in profit or loss, which will affect
the earnings before interest, taxation, depreciation and amortisation (“EBITDA”). Operating cash flows will
increase and financing cash flows will decrease as repayment of the principal portion of the lease liabilities
will be classified as cash flows from financing activities.

The Group does not expect the Group’s activities as a lessor to have any significant impact on the financial
statements. However, some additional disclosures will be required upon adoption of MFRS 16.

The Group intends to apply the simplified transition approach and will not restate comparative amounts for
the year prior to first adoption. Right-of-use assets for property will be measured on transition as if the new
rules had always been applied.

(ii) Amendments to MFRS and interpretation which are applicable to the Group effective for annual periods
beginning on or after 1 January 2020:

• Amendments to MFRS 2 “Share-Based Payment”


• Amendment to MFRS 3 “Business Combinations”
• Amendments to MFRS 101 “Presentation of Financial Statements”
• Amendments to MFRS 108 “Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors”
• Amendments to MFRS 134 “Interim Financial Reporting”
• Amendment to MFRS 137 “Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets”
• Amendment to IC Interpretation 19 “Extinguishing Financial Liabilities with Equity Instruments”
• Amendment to IC Interpretation 22 “Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration”

The adoption of the above amendments to MFRS and interpretation may result in a change in accounting
policy. The Group will quantify the effect of adopting these standards when the full standards are effective.

PREFACE TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

C SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Consolidation

(i) Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) over which the Group has control. The Group
controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with
the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the relevant activities of the
entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are
deconsolidated from the date that control ceases.

The Group applies the acquisition method to account for business combination, except for the subsidiary as
disclosed in Note 12, where the Group applies predecessor accounting to account for business combination
under common control. Under predecessor accounting, assets and liabilities acquired are not restated to their
respective fair values. They are recognised at the carrying amounts from the consolidated financial statements
of the ultimate holding company of the Group and adjusted to conform with the accounting policies adopted
by the Group. The difference between any consideration given and the aggregate carrying amounts of the
assets and liabilities (as of the date of the transaction) of the acquired entity is recognised as an adjustment
to equity. No additional goodwill is recognised.

The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair value of the assets transferred,
the liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the Group.
The consideration transferred includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent
consideration arrangement and fair value of any pre-existing equity interest in the subsidiary. Identifiable
assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are, with limited
exceptions, measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The Group recognises any non-
controlling interest in the acquiree on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, either at fair value or at the non-
controlling interest’s proportionate share of the recognised amounts of acquiree’s identifiable net assets.

Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.

If the business combination is achieved in stages, the carrying value of the acquirer’s previously held equity
interest in the acquiree is remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date, any gains or losses arising from
such remeasurement are recognised in profit and loss.

Any contingent consideration to be transferred by the Group is recognised at fair value at the acquisition date.
Subsequent changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration that is deemed to be an asset or liability
is recognised in accordance with MFRS 9 either in profit or loss or as a change to other comprehensive
income. Contingent consideration that is classified as equity is not remeasured, and its subsequent settlement
is accounted for within equity.

Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between group companies are
eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment
of the transferred asset.

Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the
policies adopted by the Group.

Non-controlling interests in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the consolidated
statement of income, statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of
financial position respectively.

PREFACE TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

C SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(a) Consolidation (continued)

(ii) Changes in ownership interests in subsidiaries without change of control 04


Transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in loss of control are accounted for as transactions
with equity owners of the Group. A change in ownership interest results in an adjustment between the carrying
amounts of the controlling and non-controlling interests to reflect their relative interests in the subsidiary. Any
difference between the amount of the adjustment to non-controlling interests and any consideration paid or
received is recognised in equity attributable to owners of the Group.

(iii) Disposal of subsidiaries

When the Group ceases to consolidate because of a loss of control, any retained interest in the entity is
remeasured to its fair value with the change in carrying amount recognised in profit or loss. This fair value
becomes the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest
as an associate, joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognised in other
comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of
the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive
income are reclassified to profit or loss. Gains or losses on the disposal of subsidiaries include the carrying
amount of goodwill relating to the subsidiaries sold.

(iv) Joint arrangements

A joint arrangement is an arrangement in which there is contractually agreed sharing of control by the Group
with one or more parties, where decisions about the relevant activities relating to the joint arrangement
require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. The classification of a joint arrangement as a joint
operation or a joint venture depends upon the rights and obligations of the parties to the arrangement. A joint
venture is a joint arrangement whereby the joint venturers have rights to the net assets of the arrangement. A
joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the joint operators have rights to the assets and obligations
for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement.

The Group’s interests in joint ventures are accounted for in the consolidated financial statements using the
equity method. Under the equity method, the investment in a joint venture is initially recognised at cost, and
adjusted thereafter to recognise the Group’s share of the post-acquisition profits or losses of the joint venture
in profit or loss, and the Group’s share of movements in other comprehensive income of the joint venture
in other comprehensive income. Dividends received or receivable from a joint venture are recognised as a
reduction in the carrying amount of the investment. When the Group’s share of losses in a joint venture equals
or exceeds its interests in the joint venture, including any long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the
Group’s net investment in the joint venture, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred
legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the joint venture.

The Group determines at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that the investment
in joint venture is impaired. An impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss for the amount by which the
carrying amount of the joint venture exceeds its recoverable amount.

Unrealised gains on transactions between the Group and its joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the
Group’s interests in the joint ventures. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides
evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of the joint ventures have been
changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

C SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(a) Consolidation (continued)

(iv) Joint arrangements (continued)

When the Group ceases to equity account its joint venture because of a loss of joint control, any retained
interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value with the change in carrying amount recognised in profit
or loss. This fair value becomes the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for
the retained interest as an associate or a financial asset. In addition, any amount previously recognised in
other comprehensive income in respect of the entity is accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed
of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive
income are reclassified to profit or loss.

If the ownership interest in a joint venture is reduced but joint control is retained, only a proportionate share
of the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss where
appropriate.

(v) Associates

An associate is an entity in which the Group is in a position to exercise significant influence. Significant
influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions, but not control over those
policies.

The Group’s interests in associates are accounted for in the consolidated financial statements using the equity
method, similar to accounting policy Section C(a)(iv).

(b) Investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates in separate financial statements

In the Company’s separate financial statements, investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates are
carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses (see accounting policy Section C(h)). On disposal of investments
in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates, the difference between disposal proceeds and the carrying amounts
of the investments are recognised in profit or loss.

The amounts due from subsidiaries of which the Company does not expect repayment in the foreseeable future and
has no contractual terms of repayment are considered as part of the Company’s capital contribution in subsidiaries
(net investments).

(c) Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment
losses. The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment initially recognised includes its purchase price and any
cost that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable
of operating in the manner intended by management, assets dismantling costs, and restoration costs for the site.
Costs also include borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a
qualifying asset (see accounting policy Section C(i)).

Drydocking expenditures represent major inspection and overhaul costs and are depreciated to reflect the
consumption of benefits, which are to be replaced or restored by the subsequent drydocking generally performed.
The Group has included these drydocking costs as a component within vessel costs in accordance with MFRS 116
“Property, Plant and Equipment”.
Annual Report 2018

(c) Property, plant and equipment (continued)

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, 04
only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of
the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and
maintenance are recognised as expenses in profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.

Gains or losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount and are included in
profit or loss.

Property, plant and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis to allocate the cost to their residual values
over their estimated useful lives. Depreciation on assets under construction commences when the assets are ready
for their intended use. Vessels are depreciated on a systematic basis to reflect the pattern in which future economic
benefits are expected to be consumed over their estimated useful lives.

The estimated useful lives of the categories of property, plant and equipment are summarised as follows:

Building 50 years
Drydocking expenditure 2.5 to 5 years
Vessels 10 to 25 years
Equipment, furniture, fittings and office equipment 2 to 10 years
Spare parts 1 to 3 years
Motor vehicles 5 years

Residual values and useful lives of assets are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting
period.

At the end of the reporting period, the Group assesses whether there is any indication of impairment.
If such indications exist, an analysis is performed to assess whether the carrying amount of the asset is fully
recoverable. A write down is made if the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount (see accounting policy
Section C(h)).

(d) Financial assets

(i) Classification

Accounting policies applied until 31 December 2017

The Group classifies its financial assets in the following categories: at fair value through profit or loss, loans
and receivables and available-for-sale financial assets. The classification depends on the purpose for which
the financial assets were acquired. Management determines the classification at initial recognition and, in the
case of assets classified as held-to-maturity, re-evaluates this designation at the end of each reporting period.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”)

The Group classifies financial assets at FVTPL if they are acquired principally for the purpose of selling in
the short-term, i.e. are held for trading. They are presented as current assets if they are expected to be sold
within 12 months after the end of the reporting period; otherwise they are presented as non-current assets.
Derivatives are also categorised as held for trading unless they are designated as hedges (see accounting
policy Section C(g)). Derivatives are classified as current assets if expected to be settled within 12 months;
otherwise they are classified as non-current assets.

(d) Financial assets (continued)

(i) Classification (continued)

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not
quoted in an active market. If collection of the amounts is expected in one year or less they are classified
as current assets; otherwise they are presented as non-current assets. The Group’s loan and receivables are
disclosed in Note 44 to the financial statements.

Available-for-sale financial assets

Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivatives that are either designated in this category or not
classified in any of the other categories. They are included in non-current assets unless the investment matures
or management intends to dispose of it within 12 months after the end of the reporting period.

Accounting policies applied from 1 January 2018

From 1 January 2018, the Group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:

• those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income or through
profit or loss); and
• those to be measured at amortised cost.

The classification depends on the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual
terms of the cash flows.

For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in profit or loss or other
comprehensive income. For investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading, this will depend
on whether the Group has made an irrevocable election at the time of initial recognition to account for the
equity investment at fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVOCI”).

The Group reclassifies debt investments when and only when its business model for managing those assets
changes.

(ii) Recognition

Accounting policies applied until 31 December 2017

Financial assets are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the
acquisition of the financial asset for all financial assets not carried at FVTPL. Financial assets at FVTPL are
initially recognised at fair value, and transaction costs are expensed in profit or loss.

Accounting policies applied from 1 January 2018

Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on trade-date, the date on which the
Group commits to purchase or sell the asset.

(iii) Measurement 04
Accounting policies applied until 31 December 2017

Financial assets at FVTPL and available-for-sale financial assets are subsequently carried at fair value. Loans
and receivables are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Changes in the fair values of financial assets at FVTPL, including the effects of currency translation, interest
and dividend income are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which the changes arise.

Changes in the fair value of available-for-sale financial assets are recognised in other comprehensive income,
except for impairment losses (see accounting policy Section C(d)(iv)) and foreign exchange gains and losses
on monetary assets (see accounting policy Section C(n)(ii)).

Dividends income on available-for-sale equity instruments are recognised in profit or loss when the Group’s
right to receive payments is established.

Accounting policies applied from 1 January 2018

At initial recognition, the Group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial
asset not at FVTPL, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset.
Transaction costs of financial assets carried at FVTPL are expensed in profit or loss.

Financial assets with embedded derivatives are considered in their entirety when determining whether their
cash flows are solely payment of principal and interest (“SPPI”).

Debt instruments

Subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on the Group’s business model for managing the asset
and the cash flow characteristics of the asset. There are three measurement categories into which the Group
classifies its debt instruments:

• Amortised cost: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows
represent SPPI are measured at amortised cost. Interest income from these financial assets is included in
other operating income using the effective interest rate method. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition
is recognised directly in profit or loss and presented in the statement of profit or loss together with
foreign exchange gains and losses. Impairment losses are presented within the statement of profit or
loss.

• FVOCI: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets,
where the assets’ cash flows represent SPPI, are measured at FVOCI. Movements in the carrying
amount are taken through other comprehensive income, except for the recognition of impairment gains
or losses, interest income and foreign exchange gains and losses which are recognised in profit or loss.
When the financial asset is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in other
comprehensive income is reclassified from equity to profit or loss. Interest income from these financial
assets is included in other operating income using the effective interest rate method. Foreign exchange
gains and losses are presented in administrative expenses and impairment expenses are presented
within the statement of profit or loss and statement of comprehensive income as applicable.

(iii) Measurement

Accounting policies applied from 1 January 2018 (continued)

Debt instruments (continued)

• FVTPL: Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortised cost or FVOCI are measured at FVTPL.
A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at FVTPL is recognised in profit or loss
and presented net within the statement of profit or loss in the period in which it arises.

Equity instruments

The Group subsequently measures all equity investments at fair value. Where the Group’s management has
elected to present fair value gains and losses on equity investments in other comprehensive income, there is
no subsequent reclassification of fair value gains and losses to profit or loss following the derecognition of
the investment. Dividends from such investments continue to be recognised in profit or loss as other income
when the Group’s right to receive payments is established.

Changes in the fair value of financial assets at FVTPL are recognised in profit or loss as applicable.

(iv) Impairment of financial assets

Accounting policies applied until 31 December 2017

Assets carried at amortised cost

The Group assesses at the end of the reporting period whether there is objective evidence that a financial
asset or group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired and
impairment losses are incurred only if there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more
events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a “loss event”) and that loss event (or “events”)
has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can
be reliably estimated.

Evidence of impairment may include indications that the debtors or a group of debtors are experiencing
significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest and 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.

The amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present
value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted
at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced and the
amount of the loss is recognised in profit or loss. If “loans and receivables” has a variable interest rate, the
discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate determined under the
contract. As a practical expedient, the Group may measure impairment on the basis of an instrument’s fair
value using an observable market price.

(iv) Impairment of financial assets (continued) 04


Accounting policies applied until 31 December 2017 (continued)

Assets carried at amortised cost (continued)

If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related
objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the reversal of the previously
recognised impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss.

When an asset is uncollectible, it is written off against the related allowance account. Such assets are written
off after all the necessary procedures have been completed and the amount of the loss has been determined.

Assets classified as available-for-sale

The Group assesses at the end of the reporting period whether there is objective evidence that a financial
asset or a group of financial assets is impaired.

For debt securities, the Group uses criteria and measurement of impairment loss applicable for “assets carried
at amortised cost” above. If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of a debt instrument classified as available
for sale increases and the increase can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss
was recognised in profit or loss, the impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss.

In the case of equity securities classified as available-for-sale, in addition to the criteria for “assets carried
at amortised cost” above, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is
also considered as an indicator that the assets are impaired. If any such evidence exists for available-for-sale
financial assets, the cumulative loss that had been recognised directly in equity is removed from equity and
recognised in profit or loss. The amount of cumulative loss that is reclassified to profit or loss is the difference
between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset
previously recognised in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognised in profit or loss on equity instruments
classified as available-for-sale are not reversed through profit or loss in subsequent periods.

Accounting policies applied from 1 January 2018

Impairment for debt instruments

From 1 January 2018, the Group assesses on a forward-looking basis the expected credit losses (“ECL”)
associated with its debt instruments carried at amortised cost and at FVOCI. The impairment methodology
applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.

ECL represents a probability-weighted estimate of the difference between present value of cash flows
according to contract and present value of cash flows the Group expects to receive, over the remaining life
of the financial instrument. For financial guarantee contracts, the ECL is the difference between the expected
payments to reimburse the holder of the guaranteed debt instrument less any amounts that the Group expects
to receive from the holder, the debtor or any other party.

Accounting policies applied from 1 January 2018 (continued)

Impairment for debt instruments (continued)

The measurement of ECL reflects:

• An unbiased and probability-weighted amount that is determined by evaluating a range of possible


outcomes;

• The time value of money; and

• Reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue cost or effort at the reporting
date about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.

(a) Simplified approach for trade receivables, accrued lease rentals and contract assets

The Group applies the MFRS 9 simplified approach to measure ECL, which uses a lifetime ECL for trade
receivables, accrued lease rentals and contract assets.

(b) General 3-stage approach for all financial assets except trade receivables, accrued lease rentals and
contract assets

At each reporting date, the Group measures ECL through loss allowance at an amount equal to
12-month ECL if credit risk on financial instrument or a group of financial instruments has not increased
significantly since initial recognition. For all other financial instruments, a loss allowance at an amount
equal to lifetime ECL is required.

Section E – Credit risk sets out the measurement details of ECL.

Significant increase in credit risk

The Group considers the probability of default upon initial recognition of an asset and whether there has
been a significant increase in credit risk on an ongoing basis throughout each reporting period. To assess
whether there is a significant increase in credit risk, the Group compares the risk of a default occurring on the
asset as at the reporting date with the risk of default as at the date of initial recognition. It considers available
reasonable and supportable forward-looking information, incorporating indicators such as significant
changes in the expected performance and behaviour of the debtor, including changes in the payment status
of debtor in the Group and changes in the operating results of the debtor.

A significant increase in credit risk is presumed if a debtor is more than 180 days past due in making a
contractual payment, which the Group determined based on historical repayment trends before risk of default
is heightened.

Accounting policies applied from 1 January 2018 (continued)

Definition of default and credit-impaired financial assets

The Group defines a financial instrument as default, which is fully aligned with the definition of credit-
impaired, when it meets one or more of the following criteria:

(a) Quantitative criteria

The Group defines a financial instrument as default, when the counterparty fails to make contractual
payments within a year of when they fall due.

(b) Qualitative criteria

The debtor meets unlikeliness to pay criteria, which indicates the debtor is in significant financial
difficulty. The Group considers the following instances:

• The debtor is in breach of financial covenants;

• Concessions have been made by the lender relating to the debtor’s financial difficulty;

• It is becoming probable that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation;

• Continuous default in the repayment plan;

• The debtor is insolvent.

Financial instruments that are credit-impaired are assessed on an individual basis.

Groupings of instruments for ECL measurement

Financial assets are assessed on an individual basis for ECL measurement, as credit risk information is
obtained and monitored based on each debtor, joint venture and subsidiary.

Write-off

Financial assets are written off when the Group has exhausted all practical recovery efforts and has concluded
that there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. The assessment of no reasonable expectation of recovery
is based on unavailability of debtor’s sources of income or assets to generate sufficient future cash flows to
repay the amount.

Impairment losses are presented as net impairment losses within cost of sales in the profit or loss. Subsequent
recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the same line item.

have been transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership.

Accounting policies applied until 31 December 2017

When available-for-sale financial assets are sold, the accumulated fair value adjustments recognised in other
comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss.

Accounting policies applied from 1 January 2018

When financial assets at FVOCI are sold, the accumulated fair value adjustments recognised in other
comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss.

(e) Offsetting financial instruments

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the statement of financial position when
there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis,
or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The legally enforceable right must not be contingent on
future events and must be enforceable in the normal course of business and in the event of default, insolvency or
bankruptcy.

(f) Financial guarantee contracts

Financial guarantee contracts are contracts that require the Group to make specified payments to reimburse the
holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payments when due, in accordance with the
terms of a debt instrument.

Financial guarantee contracts are recognised as a financial liability at the time the guarantee is issued and the
liability is initially measured at fair value.

The fair value of financial guarantees is determined as the present value of the difference in net cash flows
between the contractual payments under the debt instrument and the payments that would be required without the
guarantee, or the estimated amount that would be payable to a third party for assuming the obligations.

Accounting policies applied until 31 December 2017

Financial guarantee contracts are subsequently measured at the higher of the amount determined in accordance
with MFRS 137 “Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets” and the amount initially recognised less
cumulative amortisation, where appropriate.

Financial guarantee contracts are subsequently measured at the higher of the amount determined in accordance

with Customers”, where appropriate.

(g) Derivative and hedging activities

Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently 04
re-measured at their fair values at the end of each reporting period.

The accounting for subsequent changes in fair value depends on whether the derivative is designated as a hedging
instrument, and if so, the nature of the item being hedged. Derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting are
classified as held for trading and accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy set out in Section C(d).
Derivatives that qualify for hedge accounting are designated as a cash flow hedge of a particular risk associated
with a recognised asset or liability or a highly probable forecast transaction.

The Group documents at the inception of the transaction the relationship between hedging instruments and hedged
items, as well as its risk management objectives and strategy for undertaking various hedging transactions. The
Group also documents its assessment, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives
that are used in hedging transactions have been and will continue to be highly effective in offsetting changes in
cash flows of hedged items.

The fair values of various derivative instruments used for hedging purposes are disclosed in Note 34. Movements
in the hedging reserve in shareholders’ equity are shown in the statement of changes in equity. Where a portion of
a derivative financial instrument is expected to be realised within 12 months after the end of the reporting period,
that portion should be presented as a current asset or liability, the remainder of the derivative financial instrument
should be shown as non-current asset or liability.

Cash flow hedge

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges
is recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in reserves within equity. The gain or loss relating
to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in profit or loss within finance cost.

Amounts accumulated in equity are reclassified to profit or loss in the periods when the hedged item affects the
profit or loss. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion of interest rate swaps and cross currency interest
rate swaps hedging variable rate borrowings is recognised in profit or loss within finance costs.

When a hedging instrument expires or is sold or terminated, or when a hedge no longer meets the criteria for
hedge accounting, the accounting of any cumulative deferred gain or loss and deferred cost of hedging included
in equity depends on the nature of the underlying hedge transaction. For cash flow hedge which resulted in the
recognition of a non-financial asset, the cumulative amount in equity shall be included in the initial cost of the asset.
For other cash flow hedges, the cumulative amount in equity is reclassified to profit or loss in the same period
that the hedged cash flows affect profit or loss. When hedged future cash flows or forecast transactions are no
longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss and deferred cost of hedging that was reported in equity is
immediately reclassified to profit or loss within finance costs.

The Group documented at the inception of the transaction, the relationship between hedging instruments and
hedged items and its assessment, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that
were used in hedging transactions have been and will continue to be highly effective in offsetting changes in fair
values or cash flows of hedged items.

Accounting policies applied from 1 January 2018

The Group documents at the inception of the hedge relationship, the economic relationship between hedging
instruments and hedged items including whether changes in the cash flows of the hedging instruments are expected
to offset changes in the cash flows of hedged items. The Group documents its risk management objective and
strategy for undertaking its hedge transactions.

Costs of hedging requirements: Foreign currency basis spread of cross currency interest rate swap

Accounting policies applied from 1 January 2018

When swaps are used to hedge forecast transactions, the Group generally designates only the change in fair value
of the swaps related to the spot component as the hedging instrument. Gains or losses relating to the effective
portion of the change in the spot component of the swaps are recognised in the cash flow hedge reserve within
equity. The change in the foreign currency basis spread of the swaps that relates to the hedged item (‘aligned
forward element’) is recognised within other comprehensive income in the costs of hedging reserve within equity.
The deferred amounts are reclassified to profit or loss in the same period that the hedged item affects profit or loss.

(h) Impairment of non-financial assets

Assets that have an indefinite useful life (e.g. goodwill) are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually
for impairment. Other assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the
carrying amount of the asset exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s
fair value less costs of disposal and value-in-use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at
the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows which are largely independent of the cash
inflows from other assets or groups of assets (“cash-generating units”). Assets other than goodwill that suffered an
impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date.

The impairment loss is charged to profit or loss unless it reverses a previous revaluation in which case it is
charged to the revaluation surplus. Impairment losses on goodwill are not reversed. In respect of other assets, any
subsequent increase in recoverable amount is recognised in profit or loss unless it reverses an impairment loss on
a revalued asset in which case it is taken to revaluation surplus reserves.

(i) Borrowings and borrowing costs

Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently 04
carried at amortised cost; any difference between initial recognised amount and the redemption amount is
recognised in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.

Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it
is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is capitalised as prepayment
until the draw-down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will
be drawn down, the fee is capitalised as a prepayment for liquidity services and amortised over the period of the
facility to which it relates.

Borrowings are removed from the statement of financial position when the obligation specified in the contract is
discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been
extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred
or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss within finance costs.

Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the
liability for at least 12 months after the end of the reporting period.

General and specific borrowing costs 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.

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.

All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

(j) Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost represents material and attributable cost
of acquisition and is determined using the first in, first out method.

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the costs of completion
and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

(k) Non-current assets (or disposal groups) held-for-sale

Non-current assets (or disposal groups) are classified as assets held-for-sale if their carrying amount will be
recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use and a sale is considered highly
probable. They are stated at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell, except for assets such
as deferred tax assets and financial assets, which are specifically exempt from this requirement.

An impairment loss is recognised for any initial or subsequent write-down of the asset (or disposal group) to fair
value less costs to sell. A gain is recognised for any subsequent increases in fair value less costs to sell of an asset
(or disposal group), but not in excess of any cumulative impairment loss previously recognised. A gain or loss not
previously recognised by the date of the sale of the non-current asset (or disposal group) is recognised at the date
of derecognition.

Non-current assets (including those that are part of a disposal group) are not depreciated or amortised while they
are classified as held-for-sale. Interest and other expenses attributable to the liabilities of a disposal group classified
as held for sale continue to be recognised.

Non-current assets classified as held-for-sale and the assets of a disposal group classified as held-for-sale are
presented separately from the other assets in the statement of financial position. The liabilities of a disposal group
classified as held-for-sale are presented separately from other liabilities in the statement of financial position.

(l) Construction contracts and conversion work

Accounting policies applied until 31 December 2017

A construction contract is a contract specifically negotiated for the construction of an asset or a combination of
assets that are closely interrelated or interdependent in terms of their design, technology and functions or their
ultimate purpose or use. Conversion work represents activities conducted to convert a vessel for its intended use in
accordance to the customers’ specifications.

When the outcome of a construction contract or conversion work can be estimated reliably, contract revenue
and contract costs associated with the construction contract or conversion works are recognised as revenue and
expenses respectively by reference to the stage of completion of the contract or conversion activity at the end of the
reporting period. When it is probable that total contract costs will exceed total contract revenue, the expected loss
is recognised as an expense immediately.

Variations in contract/conversion work, claims and incentive payments are included in contract revenue to the
extent agreed with the customer and are capable of being reliably measured.

The Group uses the “percentage-of-completion method” to determine the appropriate amount to recognise in a
given period. The stage of completion is measured by reference to the contract/conversion costs incurred up to the
end of the reporting period as a percentage of total estimated costs for each contract/conversion.

When the outcome of a construction contract cannot be estimated reliably, contract revenue is recognised only to
the extent of contract costs incurred that is probable will be recoverable.

For conversion work in relation to vessels built to customers’ specifications, these are shown as vessel under
construction (under property, plant and equipment) during the conversion phase. Upon completion of the conversion
activities, these amounts are recognised as finance lease receivables when the lease commences. Contractual
milestone billings during the conversion phase are presented as advances from customers.

For construction contracts, the Group presents as an asset the gross amounts due from customers for contract work
for all contracts in progress for which costs incurred plus recognised profits (less recognised losses) exceed progress
billings. Progress billings not yet paid by customers and retention are included within “trade receivables”. The
Group presents as a liability the gross amounts due to customers for contract work for all contracts in progress for
which progress billings exceed costs incurred plus recognised profits (less recognised losses).

(m) Revenue recognition

Accounting policies applied until 31 December 2017 04


Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods and services
in the ordinary course of the Group’s activities. Revenue is shown net of goods and services tax, value-added tax,
returns, rebates and discounts and amounts collected on behalf of third parties and after eliminating sales within
the Group.

The Group recognises revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, it is probable that future
economic benefits will flow to the entity and specific criteria have been met for each of the Group’s activities as
described below. The Group bases its estimates on historical results, taking into consideration the type of customer,
the type of transaction and the specifics of each arrangement based on contractual terms.

Revenue is recognised on the following basis:

(i) Vessel charter fees and support services

Vessel charter fees from FPSO contracts are recognised over the lease term based on classification of the
contracts as finance or operating lease determined at the inception of the lease (see accounting policy
Section C(o)). Charter hire income from other vessels is recognised upon rendering of services to customers.

Vessel sundry income, commission and agency income are recognised when services are rendered to the
customers and recognised on an accrual basis.

(ii) Vessel construction, conversion and engineering services

Revenue from construction contracts and conversion works in relation to vessels built to customers’ specifications
are accounted for under the percentage-of-completion method (see accounting policy Section C(l)).

(iii) Interest income

Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method. When a loan and receivable is impaired,
the Group reduces the carrying amount to its recoverable amount, being the estimated future cash flow
discounted at the original effective interest rate of the instrument and continues unwinding the discount as
interest income. Interest income on impaired loan and receivables are recognised using the original effective
interest rate.

(iv) Dividend income

Dividend income is recognised when the Group’s right to receive payment is established. This applies even
if they are paid out of pre-acquisition profits. However, the investment may need to be tested for impairment
as a consequence.

(v) Rental income

The Group earns rental income from the rental of premises to third parties. Rental income is recognised on
an accrual basis.

The Company earns central overhead fees from its subsidiaries and joint ventures. Central overhead fees are
recognised on an accrual basis.

(viii) Management fees

The Group earns management fees from its subsidiaries and joint ventures. Management fees are recognised
on an accrual basis.

(ix) Engineering services

Revenue represents the invoiced value for engineering services performed and cost recovery incurred less
discounts and rebates, of which engineering services and cost recovery are recognised on an incurred basis.

Accounting policies applied from 1 January 2018

Revenue from contracts with customers

Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised by reference to each distinct performance obligation in the
contract with customers. Revenue from contracts with customers is measured at its transaction price, being the
amount of consideration which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or
services to a customer, net of goods and service tax, value added tax, returns, rebates and discounts.

Revenue from contracts with customers is measured at its transaction price, which is allocated to each performance
obligation on the basis of the relative standalone selling prices of each distinct goods or services promised in the
contract. Depending on the substance of the contract, revenue is recognised when the performance obligation is
satisfied, which may be at a point in time or over time.

When there is a change order, variation or amendment to the contracts, the Group will account for it as a separate
contract if there is an increase in the scope of work with distinct performance obligations.

Revenue from contracts with customers (continued)

The Group recognises revenue as follows:

(i) Vessel charter fees and support services

FPO segment

The Group is contracted to provide charter of vessels and support services such as operation and maintenance
of the vessels. Charter of vessels are accounted under the requirement of MFRS 117 “Leases” and disclosed
in Section C(o)(ii).

The contracts may include vessel demobilisation services and major maintenance works which are treated
as distinct performance obligations and will be satisfied in the period when the services are performed. The
transaction price of the contracts is allocated to these performance obligations based on its standalone selling
price, estimated by using the expected costs to be incurred and a rate of return which is applicable to the
individual performance obligation.

The contracts of the Group are negotiated separately for charter of vessels and for support services. The
Group treats vessel demobilisation services to be part of the contract for charter of vessels. The Group treats
major maintenance works to be part of the contract for support services. These performance obligations are
measured and recognised over time when the services are performed.

Any supplementary payments included in contracts are assessed as part of variable considerations and
adjusted to the transaction price of the contracts.

OMS segment

The Group is contracted to provide time charter services using offshore support vessels (“OSV”) fleets. Time
charter services relates to short-term vessel charter operated by the Group.

The Group determines time charter services as a single performance obligation. Other scope of work includes
meals, accommodation, ship management services, vessel sundry income, commission and agency services
which are considered as separate performance obligations and are recognised over time when services are
rendered to the customers. Transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation on the basis of the
relative standalone selling prices specific to each OSV fleet and is recognised on a straight-line basis over
the tenure of the contract.

The Group recognises revenue as follows: (continued)

(ii) Construction and vessel conversion works

The Group generates revenue from vessel conversion works when contracted to perform conversion works
whereby vessels are built to customers’ specifications which comprise multiple deliverables that form a
significant integration service.

The Group also enters into construction contracts with customers specifically negotiated for the construction
of an asset or a combination of assets that are closely interrelated or interdependent in terms of their design,
technology and functions or their ultimate purpose for use.

The Group has regarded the construction contracts and vessel conversion works contracts to be single
performance obligation respectively. As one of the following criteria is met, the Group recognises revenue
from construction and vessel conversion works over time:

• the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the entity’s performance
as the entity performs;

• the Group’s performance creates or enhances an asset (for example, work in progress) that the customer
controls as the asset is created or enhanced; or

• the Group’s performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the Group and the entity
has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.

The transaction price of the contracts will be recognised as revenue progressively based on the percentage
of completion determined by reference to the cost incurred to date relative to the total expected costs.

The Group provides warranties on completed projects against potential defects and do not treat these
warranties as a separate performance obligation.

(iii) Sale of goods

Sale of goods such as scraps are recognised at a point in time upon delivery of products and customer
acceptance, if any, or performance of services, net of sales taxes and discounts, and after eliminating sales
within the Group.

(iv) Central overhead fees

The Company earns central overhead fees from its subsidiaries and joint ventures. Central overhead fees are
recognised over time when services are rendered.

Revenue from other sources

Specific revenue recognition criteria for other revenue and income earned by the Group are as follows:

(i) Rental income

The Group earns rental income from the rental of premises to third parties. Rental income is recognised on
a straight-line basis over the tenure under the lease arrangement. See accounting policy Section C(o) for the
accounting by lessor.

(ii) Dividend income

Dividend income is recognised when the Group’s right to receive payment is established. This applies even
if they are paid out of pre-acquisition profits. However, the investment may need to be tested for impairment
as a consequence.

(iii) Interest income

Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method.

Interest income from financial assets at FVTPL is recognised as part of other operating income in the statement
of profit or loss.

Interest income on financial assets at amortised cost and financial assets at FVOCI calculated using the
effective interest method is recognised in the statement of profit or loss as part of other income.

Interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of a financial
asset except for financial assets that subsequently become credit-impaired. For credit-impaired financial
assets the effective interest rate is applied to the net carrying amount of the financial asset (after deduction of
the loss allowance).

Contract assets and contract liabilities

Contract asset is the right to consideration for goods or services transferred to the customers. In the case of vessel
charter contracts and construction contracts, contract asset is the excess of cumulative revenue earned over the
billings to-date.

The impairment loss of contract asset is charged to profit or loss (see accounting policy Section C(d)(iv)).

Contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to customer for which the Group has received
the consideration in advance or has billed the customer. In the case of vessel charter contracts and construction
contracts, contract liability is the excess of the billings to-date over the cumulative revenue earned.

Costs incurred in obtaining a contract

Prior to securing a contract with customers, the Group will undergo a project bidding process. Costs incurred
during the project bidding process are determined as costs to obtain a contract. Costs to obtain a contract that
would have been incurred regardless of whether the contract was obtained shall be recognised as an expense
when incurred, unless those costs are explicitly chargeable to the customer are recognised as an asset. The asset
recognised will be amortised on a systematic basis consistent with the transfer of goods or services to the customer
to which the asset relates.

(n) Foreign currencies

(i) Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency
of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the “functional currency”). The financial
statements of the Group and the Company are presented in Ringgit Malaysia, which is the Company’s
functional and presentation currency.

(ii) Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing
at the dates of the transactions or valuation where items are remeasured. Foreign exchange gains and losses
resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of
monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss. However,
exchange differences are deferred in other comprehensive income when they arose from qualifying cash flow
hedges or are attributable to items that form part of the net investment in a foreign operation.

Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings and cash and cash equivalents are presented
in profit or loss within finance costs.

Translation difference on non-monetary financial assets, such as equities classified as financial assets at
FVOCI, are included in other comprehensive income.

(iii) Group companies 04


The results and financial position of all the Group entities (none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary
economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the
presentation currency as follows:

• assets and liabilities for each statement of financial position presented are translated at the closing rate
at the date of that statement of financial position;

• income and expenses for each statement of income are translated at average exchange rates (unless
this average is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the
transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the rate on the dates of the
transactions); and

• all resulting exchange differences are recognised as a separate component of other comprehensive
income.

On consolidation, exchange differences arising from translation of any net investment in foreign entities and
of borrowings and other financial instruments designated as hedges of such investments are recognised in
other comprehensive income.

On the disposal of a foreign operation (that is, a disposal of the Group’s entire interest in a foreign
operation, or a disposal involving loss of control over a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation or
a disposal involving loss of joint control over a joint venture that includes a foreign operation), all of the
exchange differences relating to that foreign operation recognised in other comprehensive income and
accumulated in the separate component of equity are reclassified to profit or loss, as part of the gain or
loss on disposal. In the case of a partial disposal that does not result in the Group losing control over a
subsidiary that includes a foreign operation, the proportionate share of accumulated exchange differences
is re-attributed to non-controlling interests and are not recognised in profit or loss. For all other partial
disposals (that is, reductions in the Group’s ownership interest in joint ventures that do not result in the
Group losing joint control), the proportionate share of the accumulated exchange difference is reclassified
to profit or loss.

Intercompany loans where settlement is neither planned nor likely to occur in the foreseeable future with no
contractual terms of repayment, are treated as part of the parent’s capital contribution in subsidiaries (net
investments). Translation differences arising therefrom are recognised in other comprehensive income.

(o) Leases

A lease is an agreement whereby the lessor conveys to the lessee in return for a payment, or series of payments,
the right to use an asset for an agreed period of time.

(i) Accounting by lessee

Finance leases

Leases of property, plant and equipment where the Group has substantially all the risks and rewards of
ownership are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalised at the lease’s commencement
at the lower of the fair value of the leased property and the present value of the minimum lease payments.
The corresponding rental obligations, net of finance charges, are included in other short-term and long-term
payables.

Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance charges so as to achieve a constant rate
of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. The finance cost is charged to profit or loss over the lease
period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each
period. The property, plant and equipment acquired under finance leases is depreciated over the shorter of
the useful life of the asset and the lease term if there is no reasonable certainty that the Group will obtain
ownership at the end of the lease term.

Initial direct costs incurred by the Group in negotiating and arranging finance leases are added to the
carrying amount of the leased assets and recognised as an expense in profit or loss over the lease term on
the same basis as the lease expense.

Operating leases

Leases of assets where a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessors
are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received
from the lessors) are charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease period.

Contingent rents are recognised as an expense in profit or loss when incurred.

(ii) Accounting by lessor 04


Finance leases

Leases where the Group has transferred substantially risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the leased
assets to the lessees, are classified as finance leases.

The leased asset is derecognised and the present value of the lease receivable (net of initial direct costs for
negotiating and arranging the lease) is recognised in the statement of financial position as “finance lease
receivables”. The difference between the gross receivable and the present value of the lease receivable is
recognised as unearned finance income.

Each lease payment received is applied against the gross investment in the finance lease receivables to
reduce both the principal and the unearned finance income. The finance income is recognised in profit or loss
on a basis that reflects a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment in the finance lease receivables.

Any direct costs incurred by the Group in negotiating and arranging finance leases are added to finance
lease receivables and recognised as an expense in profit or loss over the lease term on the same basis as the
lease income.

When there is change in estimates, renewal and modification of a lease agreement that does not result in
reclassification of the lease, the Group will apply the MFRS 9 derecognition guidance to decide whether the
lease receivable should be derecognised and the modified agreement accounted for as a new lease.

Operating leases

Leases where the Group retains substantially the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the leased
assets are classified as operating leases. Rental income from operating leases (net of any incentives given to
the lessees) is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Initial direct costs incurred by the Group in negotiating and arranging operating leases are added to the
carrying amount of the leased assets and recognised as an expense in profit or loss over the lease term on
the same basis as the lease income.

Contingent rents are recognised as income in profit or loss when earned.

(p) Current and deferred income tax

Tax expense for the period comprises current, withholding and deferred taxes. The income tax expense or credit
for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate
for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences
and to unused tax losses. Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised
in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive
income or directly in equity, respectively.

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the
end of the reporting period in the countries where the Group’s subsidiaries and joint ventures operate and generate
taxable income.

The Group periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax
regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected
to be paid to the tax authorities. This liability is measured using the single best estimate of most likely outcome.

Deferred tax is recognised, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the amounts
attributed to assets and liabilities for tax purposes and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. However,
deferred tax liabilities are not recognised if they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred tax is also
not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business
combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax
is determined using tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the end of the
reporting period and are expected to apply when the related deferred tax asset is realised or the deferred tax
liability is settled.

Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which
the deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses or unused tax credits can be utilised.

Deferred tax liability is recognised for all taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries
and joint ventures, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Group
and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax assets are recognised on deductible temporary differences arising from investments in subsidiaries
and joint arrangements only to the extent that it is probable the temporary difference will reverse in the future and
there is sufficient taxable profit available against which the deductible temporary difference can be utilised.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets
against current tax liabilities and when the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to taxes levied by the same
taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where there is an intention to settle
the balances on a net basis.

(i) Short-term employee benefits 04


Wages, salaries, paid annual leave and sick leave, bonuses, and non-monetary benefits that are expected to
be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the reporting period in which the employees render the
related service are recognised in respect of employees’ services up to the end of the reporting period and
are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. The liabilities are presented
as other payables and accruals in the statement of financial position.

(ii) Defined contribution plan

The Group’s contributions to Employees Provident Fund, a defined contribution plan, are charged to profit
or loss in the period to which they relate. Once the contributions have been paid, the Group have no further
financial obligations.

(iii) Share-based payment

The Group operates two equity-settled share-based compensation plans (“Employee Share Options Scheme”
or “ESOS” and “Management Incentive Plan” or “MIP”) under which the Group receives services from
employees as consideration for equity options (“ESOS Options”) or shares granted (“MIP shares”) over
ordinary shares of the Company. The fair value of the ESOS options or the MIP shares granted in exchange
for the services of the employees are recognised as employee benefit expense with a corresponding increase
to share option reserve within equity. The total amount to be expensed is determined by reference to the fair
value of the ESOS options or MIP shares granted:

• excluding the impact of any service and non-market performance vesting conditions; and

• including the impact of any non-vesting conditions.

Non-market vesting conditions and service conditions are included in assumptions about the number of ESOS
options or MIP shares that are expected to vest.

The total expense is recognised over the vesting period, which is the period over which all of the specified
vesting conditions are to be satisfied. At the end of the reporting period, the Group revises its estimates of the
number of ESOS options or MIP shares that are expected to vest based on the non-market vesting conditions.
It recognises the impact of the revision to original estimates, if any, in profit or loss, with a corresponding
adjustment to share option reserve in equity.

(q) Employee benefits (continued)

(iii) Share-based payment (continued)

When the ESOS options are exercised, or when the MIP shares are issued, the Company issues new shares.
The proceeds received net of any directly attributable transaction costs are credited to share capital when the
ESOS options are exercised, or when the MIP shares are issued. When ESOS options are not exercised and
lapsed, the share option reserve is transferred to retained earnings. For MIP shares, the share option reserve
is transferred to retained earnings if the employment is terminated or ceased prior to the vesting date.

If the terms of an equity-settled amount are modified, at a minimum, an expense is recognised as if the terms
had not been modified. An additional expense is recognised for any modification that increases the total fair
value of the share-based payment arrangement or is otherwise beneficial to the employee, as measured at
the date of modification.

If an equity award is cancelled by forfeiture, when the vesting conditions (other than market conditions) have
not been met, any expense not yet recognised for that award, as at the date of forfeiture, is treated as if it
had never been recognised. At the same time, any expense previously recognised on such cancelled equity
awards are reversed from the accounts effective as at the date of forfeiture.

The dilutive effect, if any, of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation
of earnings per share.

(iv) Termination benefits

Termination benefits are payable when employment is terminated by the Group before the normal retirement
date, or whenever an employee accepts voluntary redundancy in exchange for these benefits. The Group
recognises termination benefits at the earlier of the following dates: (a) when the Group can no longer
withdraw the offer of those benefits; and (b) when the entity recognises costs for a restructuring that is within
the scope of MFRS 137 and involves the payment of termination benefits. In the case of an offer made to
encourage voluntary redundancy, the termination benefits are measured based on the number of employees
expected to accept the offer. Benefits falling due more than 12 months after the end of the reporting period
are discounted to their present value.

(r) Trade and other receivables

Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for goods sold or services performed in the ordinary course of 04
business. Other receivables generally arise from transactions outside the usual operating activities of the Group.
If collection is expected in one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer), they are
classified as current assets. If not, they are presented as non-current assets.

Accounting policies applied until 31 December 2017

Trade and other receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost
using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment (see accounting policy Section C(d)(iv)).

Accounting policies applied from 1 January 2018

Trade and other receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost
using the effective interest method, less loss allowance (see accounting policy Section C(d)(iv)).

(s) Goodwill

Goodwill arises from a business combination and represents the excess of the aggregate of fair value of
consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the fair value of any
previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities
assumed on the acquisition date. If the fair value of consideration transferred, the amount of non-controlling interest
and the fair value of previously held interest in the acquiree are less than the fair value of the net identifiable assets
of the acquiree, the resulting gain is recognised in profit or loss.

Goodwill is not amortised but it is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in
circumstances indicate that it might be impaired, and carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. For
the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to each of the cash
generating units (“CGUs”), or groups of CGUs, that is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.
Each unit or group of units to which the goodwill is allocated represents the lowest level within the entity at which
the goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes. Goodwill is monitored at the operating segment level.
The carrying value of goodwill is compared to the recoverable amount, which is the higher of value-in-use and the
fair value less costs of disposal. Any impairment is recognised immediately as an expense and is not subsequently
reversed.

(t) Trade payables and accruals

Trade payables and accruals represent liabilities for goods or services provided to the Group prior to the end of
financial year which are unpaid. Trade payables and accruals are classified as current liabilities unless payment is
not due within 12 months after the reporting period. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities.

Trade payables and accruals are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost
using the effective interest method.

C SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(u) Provisions

A provision is recognised when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events,
where it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate of
the amount can be made.

Where the Group expects a provision to be reimbursed by another party, the reimbursement is recognised as
a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. Provisions are not recognised for future
operating losses.

Provisions are measured at the present value of management’s best estimate of the expenditures expected to be
required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of
money and the risks specific to the obligation. The increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognised
as finance costs.

(i) Provision for demobilisation costs

Provision for demobilisation costs is made based on the estimated cost of demobilising the vessels at the end
of the vessels’ useful lives. When this provision relates to an asset with sufficient future economic benefits, a
demobilising asset is recognised as property, plant and equipment and accounted for in accordance with the
accounting policy set out in Section C(c).

(v) Contingent assets and liabilities

The Group does not recognise contingent assets and liabilities, but disclose its existence in the financial statements,
if any.

A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whose existence will be confirmed by the
occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the Group or a present
obligation that is not recognised because it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle
the obligation. A contingent liability also arises in the extremely rare case where there is a liability that cannot
be recognised because it cannot be measured reliably. However, contingent liabilities do not include financial
guarantee contracts. A contingent asset is a possible asset that arises from past events whose existence will be
confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the
Group. The Group does not recognise contingent assets but discloses its existence where inflows of economic
benefits are probable, but not virtually certain.

(w) Cash and cash equivalents

For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash equivalents are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash
commitments rather than for investment or other purposes. Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand,
deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of
3 months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant
risk of changes in value.

(x) Share capital

(i) Classification 04
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Other shares are classified as equity and/or liability according to
the economic substance of the particular instrument.

(ii) Share issue costs

Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are shown as a deduction, net of tax, in
equity from the proceeds.

(iii) Dividends

Liability is recognised for the amount of any dividend declared, being appropriately authorised and no
longer at the discretion of the Group, on or before the end of the reporting period but not distributed at the
end of the reporting period.

(y) Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing the Group’s profit attributable to owners of the Company,
excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary
shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the
financial year and excluding treasury shares.

Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account
the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares
and the weighted average number of additional ordinary shares that would have been outstanding assuming the
conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.

(z) Segment reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Chief Executive
Officer. The Chief Executive Officer, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the
operating segments, has been identified to make strategic decisions. Segment revenue and expenses are those
directly attributable to the segments and include any expenses where a reasonable basis of allocation exists.

D CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated by the Directors and are based on historical experience and other
factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

The Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition,
rarely equal the related actual results. To enhance the information content of the estimates, certain key variables that are
anticipated to have material impact to the Group’s results and financial position are tested for sensitivity to changes in
the underlying parameters. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment
to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are outlined below:

(a) Classification of lease contracts

The following are the areas of judgement applied in determining the classification of lease contracts between
finance lease and operating lease under MFRS 117 “Leases” to the recognition of revenue by the Group:

(i) Determination of lease term

The Group determines the lease term based on the “non-cancellable period” for which the Group has
contracted to lease the asset together with any further terms for which the lessee has the option to continue to
lease the asset, when at lease inception it is reasonably certain that the lessee will exercise the option.

(ii) Determination of purchase option

The lessee’s purchase option is considered in classifying the lease contract. At lease inception, if it is not
reasonably certain that the option will be exercised, the option will not be a part of the basis for classification.
If the lessee has an option to purchase the asset at a price that is expected to be sufficiently lower than fair
value at the date the option becomes exercisable, the exercise of the option is regarded as reasonably
certain. The evaluation of the term “reasonably certain” involves judgement.

(b) Revenue

Allocation of total consideration to performance obligation

Contracts for leasing and operation of vessels are usually negotiated together. As the consideration for the leasing
component and operation component of vessels are contracted together, they may not represent the fair value of
the individual component separately. The total consideration paid is allocated between each component based on
fair value of each component. This requires estimation based on expected costs to be incurred and a rate of return
which is applicable to the performance obligation to be determined at lease inception.

(c) Impairment of non-financial assets

Property, plant and equipment and non-current assets held-for-sale

The recoverable amount of each vessel is based on estimates and judgement with respect to key assumptions
such as utilisation rates, daily charter rates, discount rate and residual value. Several of the Group’s contracts
are long-term in nature and there can be no certainty that the continuity of these contracts will not be materially
affected by conditions such as a deterioration in the oil and gas market or a specific client’s financial condition.
Should the actual conditions be different to those in our assumptions, there may be an adverse effect on the
recoverable amount of non-financial assets or non-current assets held-for-sale.

PREFACE TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

D CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS (CONTINUED)

(c) Impairment of non-financial assets (continued)

Investment in subsidiaries 04
The recoverable amounts of investment in subsidiaries have been determined based on value-in-use (“VIU”)
calculations, and is based on estimates and judgement with respect to key assumptions such as revenue growth,
ability to secure future contracts, funding requirements, exchange rates, and discount rate. The calculations of
projected future cash flows from the subsidiaries are inherently judgemental and susceptible to change from period
to period due to the assumptions stated above.

(d) Impairment of financial assets

The Group measures impairment of financial assets through the ECL model which incorporates elements of
probability-weighted amount that is determined by evaluating a range of possible outcomes, time value of money,
and information about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. The loss
allowance for financial assets are based on assumptions about risk of default and expected loss rates. The Group
uses judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the impairment calculation, based on the
Group’s past history, existing market conditions as well as forward looking estimates at the end of the reporting
period.

In assessing the ECL of amounts due from subsidiaries, the Group further considers recovery strategies of repayment
in the event if the amount is demanded to be repaid and expected future cash flows in the event the Group is not
expected to fully recover the amount outstanding. The calculations of projected future cash flows of the subsidiaries
are inherently judgemental and susceptible to change from period to period due to the assumptions made.

(e) Vessels’ useful lives and residual values

Depreciation depends on the estimated useful lives of the vessels and residual values at the end of their useful lives.
The estimated useful lives are based on previous experience, knowledge and condition of the vessels owned by
the Group and is normally equal to the design life of the vessel. Assumptions about residual value are based on
prevailing market conditions and expected value to be obtained for these vessels at the end of their useful lives in
the future. These assumptions by their nature may differ from actual outcome in the future.

(f) Current and deferred taxation

The Group is subject to income and withholding taxes in numerous jurisdictions in which the Group operates.
Significant judgement is required in determining the worldwide provision for these taxes based on interpretation
of current legislation. There are certain transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is
uncertain during the ordinary course of business. The Group recognises liabilities for tax based on estimates of
assessment of the tax liability due.

(g) Liquidated damages (“LD”) and supplementary payments

The Group is subject to LD and supplementary payments arising from delays in completion of the FPSO conversion
projects. The assessment of likelihood of LD requires significant judgement relating to the time of completion and
the contracted costs to be incurred upon finalisation of the projects and outcome of negotiation with customers.

(h) Demobilisation costs

Demobilisation costs are capitalised as part of property, plant and equipment based on estimate of costs that are
expected to be incurred upon the end of the vessel’s useful life. Provisions for demobilisation costs are measured
at the present value of expected expenditures by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that
reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and risks specific to the obligation.

E FINANCIAL AND CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES

This section presents information about the Group’s and the Company’s exposure to risks resulting from its use of
financial instruments, the Group’s objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk, and the Group’s
management of capital.

The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including foreign currency exchange risk
and interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s overall financial risk management programme focuses
on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Group’s financial
performance. The Board of Directors identifies and evaluates the financial risks in close co-operation with the Group’s
management.

Foreign currency exchange risk

The Group is exposed to various currencies, primarily, United States Dollar (“USD”) and Russian Ruble (“RUB”) (2017:
USD and RUB). The Group’s foreign currency exchange risk arises from the revenue recognised and purchases of
material, spares and services for maintenance of its vessels.

The objectives of the Group’s foreign currency exchange risk management policies are to allow the Group to effectively
manage the foreign exchange fluctuation that may arise from future commercial transactions and recognised assets
and liabilities. Foreign currency exchange forward contracts are used to manage foreign currency exchange exposures
arising from all known material foreign currency denominated commitments as and when they arise and to hedge the
movements in exchange rates by establishing the rate at which a foreign currency monetary item will be settled. Gains
and losses on foreign currency exchange forward contracts entered into as hedges of foreign currency monetary items
are recognised in the financial statements when the exchange differences of the hedged monetary items are recognised
in the financial statements. Cross currency interest rate swap contracts are also used to hedge the volatility in the
cash flows attributable to variability in the other currency denominated borrowings once identified to maturity of the
borrowings.

The Group’s exposure to foreign currency at the end of the financial year is as follows:

A similar percentage decrease in the exchange rate would have an equal but opposite effect.

The Group and the Company are exposed to foreign currency exchange risk on intercompany balances, where the
balances are not denominated in functional currencies of the entities involved. Foreign currency exchange differences
arising from net investments in foreign operations are recognised in other comprehensive income of the Group.

Foreign currency exchange differences arising from translation of financial position of Group entities that has a functional
currency different from Ringgit Malaysia are also recognised as a separate component of other comprehensive income.

Interest rate risk

The Group’s exposure to changes in interest rates relates primarily to the Group’s borrowings with floating interest rates.
In respect of managing interest rate risks, the floating interest rates of certain long-term loans are hedged in accordance
with the Group’s policy by fixed rate swaps to mirror the maturity period. Short-term facilities which bear interest at
floating interest rates are not hedged.

The contractual interest rates on borrowings and derivative financial instruments are disclosed in Notes 33 and 34
respectively.

(1)
Represents cash flow hedging reserve

The impact on (loss)/profit before taxation for the financial year is mainly as a result of interest expenses on floating
interest rate borrowings not in a designated hedging relationship. For borrowings in a designated hedging relationship,
as these are effectively hedged, the interest rate movements will not have any impact on profit or loss.

Credit risk

Credit risk arises from contractual cash flows of debt investment carried at FVOCI, favourable derivative financial
instruments and deposits with banks and financial institutions, as well as credit exposures to external customers and
related parties, including outstanding receivables.

The Group’s activities limit the exposure and credit risk concentration to a few major customers. The Group employs a
credit policy that ensures customers are subjected to credit checks and outstanding accounts are followed up on a timely
basis.

Several of the Group’s contracts are long-term. The Group’s credit risk continues for the entire contractual period. There
can be no guarantee that the financial position of the Group’s major customers will not materially change during the
contracted period. Given the limited number of major customers of the Group and the significant portion they represent
to the Group’s income, the inability of one or more of them to make full payment may have a significant adverse impact
on the financial position of the Group.

The carrying amount of each class of financial assets mentioned in Note 44 to the financial statements represents the
Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk.

The Company is exposed to credit risk arising from financial guarantee contracts given to banks for subsidiaries’
borrowings where the maximum credit risk exposure is the amount of borrowings utilised by the subsidiaries and the
interest charged on the borrowings.

Measurement of Expected Credit Loss (“ECL”) Model

The Group and the Company has the following financial assets that are subject to the ECL model:

• Finance lease receivables


• Accrued lease rentals
• Trade receivables
• Other receivables and deposits excluding prepayments
• Contract assets
• Amounts due from joint ventures
• Amounts due from subsidiaries

While deposits, cash and bank balances are also subject to the impairment requirements of MFRS 9, the identified
impairment loss was immaterial.

Simplified approach for trade receivables, accrued lease rentals and contract assets

Debtors are segregated into 5 credit ratings (A to E) based on financial position, expected risk of default on payments,
and receivables aging as at the reporting date. Accrued lease rentals and contract assets are similarly categorised
together with the debtors based on assigned credit ratings.

The expected loss rates are based on payment profiles over a period of 5 years before reporting date and the
corresponding historical credit losses experienced within this period. The historical loss rates are adjusted to reflect
current and forward-looking information on conditions specific to the debtors which may affect their ability to settle the
receivables.

The Group has considered expected oil price and geographical area which the debtor operates in and concluded that
the effect on expected changes in these factors do not significantly affect the historical loss rates. No significant changes
to estimation techniques or assumptions were made during the reporting period.

General 3-stage approach for all financial assets except trade receivables, accrued lease rentals and contract assets

For finance lease receivables and amounts due from joint ventures, the Group uses the following categories which reflect
their credit risk and how the loss allowance is determined for each of these categories.

Basis for
recognition of ECL
Category Definition of category provision
Performing Debtors have low risk of default and a strong capacity to meet contractual 12 month ECL
cash flows
Underperforming Debtors for which there is a significant increase in credit risk or significant Lifetime ECL
credit risk is presumed if repayments are 180 days past due
Non-performing Repayments are 365 days past due and there is evidence indicating the Lifetime ECL
asset is credit-impaired
Write-off There is evidence indicating that there is no reasonable expectation of Asset is written off

Measurement of Expected Credit Loss (“ECL”) Model (continued) 04


General 3-stage approach for all financial assets except trade receivables, accrued lease rentals and contract assets
(continued)

Based on the above, loss allowance is measured on either 12 month ECL or lifetime ECL using a PD x LGD x EAD
methodology as follows:

• PD (“probability of default”) – the likelihood that the debtor would not be able to repay during the contractual period;
• LGD (“loss given default”) – the percentage of contractual cash flows that will not be collected if default happens; and
• EAD (“exposure at default”) – the outstanding amount that is exposed to default risk.

In deriving the PD and LGD, the Group considers historical data and assessed forward-looking macroeconomic data
which may be applicable to each debtor. The Group has considered expected oil price and geographical area which
the debtor operates in and concluded that the effect on expected changes in these factors do not significantly affect the
historical loss rates. Loss allowance is measured at a probability-weighted amount that reflects the possibility that a credit
loss occurs and the possibility that no credit loss occurs. No significant changes to estimation techniques or assumptions
were made during the reporting period.

For amounts due from subsidiaries which are repayable on demand, the ECL is based on the assumption that repayment
of the loan is demanded at reporting date. The Company assesses the recovery strategies of repayment from the
subsidiaries in the event if the amount is demanded to be repaid and if the Company is expected to fully recover the
amount outstanding, the ECL will be limited to the effect of discounting the amount due from the subsidiary at an effective
interest rate of 0% if the loan is interest free. Impairment would be recognised if the Company does not expect to fully
recover the amount outstanding.

Reconciliation of loss allowance

The loss allowance for trade receivables and accrued lease rentals as at 31 December 2018 which was assessed using
the simplified approach reconciles to the opening loss allowance as disclosed in Note 21 and Note 22 respectively.

The loss allowance for amounts due from joint ventures and other receivables and deposits, as at 31 December 2018
which was assessed using the general 3-stage approach is disclosed in Note 18 and Note 23 respectively.

Liquidity risk

As at 31 December 2018, the Group’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by RM6,092.7 million due to the
following:

(i) Non-current borrowings for AKPL of RM1,782.9 million remains classified in current liabilities due to existing
non-compliances by AKPL under this loan, in particular the Armada Kraken FPSO project not achieving final
acceptance by the scheduled date, where project lenders currently have the right to issue, but have-to-date not
issued, a notice for full prepayment of the loan. Thus, AKPL did not have an unconditional right to defer payment
of the non-current borrowings for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date.

In view that the Armada Kraken FPSO has achieved final acceptance in September 2018, the Group is currently in
discussion with project lenders to remove the risk of having to prepay the loan as a result of existing non-compliances
by AKPL. The Group expects to alleviate such risk in 2019.

(ii) Reclassification of Sukuk Murabahah of RM1,499.4 million from non-current liabilities to current liabilities, as the
Group has not met the financial covenant of net debt over earnings before interest, taxation, depreciation and
amortisation (“EBITDA”) for the financial year ended 31 December 2018. This is mainly because the computation
includes non-cash impairment expenses recognised during the year.

In April 2019, the Group received a waiver on the covenant breach from the Sukuk holders. Accordingly, the
current liabilities will be reclassified to non-current liabilities in 2019.

(iii) Current secured term loan of AFGSML bridge loan amounting to RM186.5 million (USD45.0 million) is classified
as current liabilities, which is intended to be refinanced via long term financing. The lender had previously reserved
the right to issue a cancellation notice for full repayment of the loan, and extended the repayment date from
28 February 2019 to 12 April 2019.

In April 2019, the lender waived its right to issue a cancellation notice for full repayment of the loan and also
further extended the repayment date of the loan from 12 April 2019 to 11 October 2019.

The Group has identified alternatives to refinance the secured bridge loan via long term financing. As the asset
involved is in a long term secured charter with strong operational performance, the Directors believe that there is
a high likelihood of securing alternative financing.

(iv) The unsecured term loans with a carrying amount of RM1,578.0 million due within 12 months from the balance
sheet date are classified as current liabilities. The Group has not met the financial covenant of net debt over EBITDA
for the financial year ended 31 December 2018.

(v) The revolving credit facilities of RM1,246.9 million are due within 12 months from the balance sheet date and are
classified as current liabilities.

In April 2019, the Group signed a facility agreement to refinance the unsecured term loans and revolving credit facilities 04
referred to in (iv) and (v) above (the “Facility Agreement”). The salient terms of the new unsecured term loans (the
“Loans”) are as follows:

(i) The Loans comprise a Tranche 1 facility of USD260.0 million and a Tranche 2 facility of USD400.0 million
repayable over 24 months and 60 months respectively, from the closing date of the Facility Agreement;

(ii) The OMS business together with certain FPO vessels which are idle will be disposed of assuming commercially
acceptable sale terms can be obtained;

(iii) Surplus funds from operations and part of the proceeds, from certain strategic initiatives including monetisation of
assets and new project financing will be used to repay the Loans; and

(iv) Closing date of the Facility Agreement is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions precedent which are
procedural in nature and include approval from the central bank, the execution of certain documents, certificates,
resolutions, and legal opinions.

Based on the cash flow forecast for the next 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements, the Group’s
obligations are expected to be funded by available cash balances and cash flows from the Group’s existing vessel
charter contracts and proceeds from asset monetisation of non-core assets which is expected to generate positive cash
flows. The Group also expects distribution from joint ventures.

In order to further manage and strengthen the cash flow position, the Group is taking the following measures:

(i) Pursue collections from customers; and


(ii) Optimise cost structure.

The Directors are of the opinion that the Group will be able to discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business
over the next 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements.

PREFACE TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

E FINANCIAL AND CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Liquidity risk (continued)

All financial liabilities of the Company are assessed as current and correspondingly, no detailed maturity analysis is 04
deemed necessary.

Corporate guarantees are financial guarantees given to banks for credit facilities granted to subsidiaries. The maximum
amount of the financial guarantees issued by the Company to the banks for subsidiary companies’ borrowings is limited to
the amount utilised by the subsidiary companies and the interest charged on the borrowings, amounting to RM10,215.3
million as at 31 December 2018 (2017: RM11,728.5 million). The earliest period that the financial guarantees can
be called upon by the banks is upon an event of default which could not be remedied. The Company believes that the
liquidity risk in respect of the financial guarantees is minimal as it is unlikely that the subsidiary companies will not make
payment to the banks when due.

Capital risk management

The Group’s and the Company’s objectives when managing capital, are to safeguard the Group’s and the Company’s
ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and
to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.

In order to maintain the capital structure, the Company may issue new shares or issue new debt and return capital to
shareholders or adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders.

The capital structure of the Group and the Company consists of borrowings (excluding cash and cash equivalents) and
total equity, comprising issued share capital, reserves and non-controlling interests as follows:

12,524,246 15,197,822 4,985,952 4,866,709

The Group is required to maintain a certain ratio of total net debt to adjusted earnings before interest, taxation,
depreciation, amortisation and impairment, as defined in the facilities agreement. During the financial year, the Group
has complied with these requirements, except as disclosed in Section E - Liquidity risk.

Effective from 31 January 2017, the new Companies Act 2016 (“the Act”) abolished the concept of authorised share capital and par value of share capital. Consequently, the credit balance of the share
premium and preference share redemption reserve becomes part of the Company’s share capital pursuant to the transitional provision set out in Section 618(2) of the Act. Notwithstanding this provision,
the Company may within 24 months from the commencement of the Act, use this amount for purposes as set out in Section 618(3) and 618(4) of the Act. The Board of Directors has elected not to apply
Section 618(3) and Section 618(4) on this amount. There is no impact on the numbers of ordinary shares in issue or the relative entitlement of any of the members as a result of this transition.

1 SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Group is organised into 2 main business segments based on the type of operations carried out by its vessels and barges:

(i) Floating Production & Operations (“FPO”) – consists of Floating Production Storage Offloading (“FPSO”) and
Floating Gas Solutions (“FGS”)

• FPSO - own, operate and provide FPSO vessels that are used for receiving hydrocarbons sourced from oilfields.

• FGS - focus on innovative solutions for the offshore liquefied natural gas industry.

(ii) Offshore Marine Services (“OMS”) – consists of Offshore Support Vessel (“OSV”) and Subsea Construction (“SC”)

• OSV - own, operate and charter vessels to provide support for exploration, development and production
activities in the offshore oil and gas industry.

• SC - provision of conventional installation, floater installation and installation of umbilicals, risers and flexibles
as part of FPSO completion or as standalone SC projects.

The remaining operations of the Group are in “Corporate and others”. These operations comprise management and
other corporate support services provided to subsidiaries which are considered incidental to the Group’s operating
business.

The external revenue reported to the Chief Executive Officer is measured in a manner consistent with that in the Group’s
statement of income. The cost of sales and allocation of expenses attributable to each segment is based on management’s
internal allocation basis and may not individually be consistent with the Group’s statement of income. Inter-segment revenue
comprises mostly of engineering services provided to the marine charter hire companies and central overhead fees allocated
within the Group. These transactions are conducted based on terms and conditions negotiated with related parties.

The Group’s effective tax rate for the financial year ended 31 December 2018 was negative 1%, as compared to the
Malaysian statutory tax rate of 24%. The difference in the effective tax rate and the Malaysian statutory tax rate is mainly
due to a tax refund received arising from dividends declared by foreign subsidiaries and recognition of deferred tax
assets on potential tax refunds receivable from dividends to be declared by foreign subsidiaries.

The Company’s effective tax rate for the financial year ended 31 December 2018 was 1% compared to the statutory tax
rate of 24% as the Company’s income was mainly exempted from tax for the financial year.

9 EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic

The basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing the Group’s (loss)/profit attributable to the Owners of the
Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the financial year.

Diluted

Diluted EPS adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic EPS to take into account:

• the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with the ESOS and MIP; and
• the weighted average number of additional ordinary shares that would have been outstanding assuming the
conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares from the ESOS and MIP.

The MIP shares awarded were not dilutive for the financial year ended 31 December 2018 as there is one vesting
condition is expected to be satisfied before Quarter 2, 2019. Hence, the calculation of diluted earnings per share does
not assume the exercise of the MIP. The ESOS is not dilutive as the exercise price is higher than the current market price.

(c) The FPSO contracts include options for the charterers to purchase the respective FPSO vessels or to extend their
charter periods beyond the initial lease period. The purchase option values are based on declining agreed prices,
which are in excess of the current net book values of the FPSO vessels as at the reporting date.

(d) During the financial year ended 31 December 2018, an impairment charge of RM2,199.7 million for property,
plant and equipment has been recognised, of which RM1,613.2 million and RM586.5 million were charged for
Armada Kraken FPSO and certain OSV vessels respectively. The impairment assessment on Armada Kraken FPSO
was carried out as a result of lower availability since final acceptance in September 2018 and is assessed using
the terms stipulated in the amendment agreement to the charter agreement signed between AKPL with EnQuest
Heather Limited, EnQuest ENS Limited and Nautical Petroleum Limited on 27 August 2018. The impairment
assessment on OSV vessels was carried out as a result of the decline in vessel utilisation and day rates.

The Group considered each of these vessels as a cash-generating unit. However, they are grouped together for
disclosure purposes. The recoverable amount for these vessels of which an impairment charge was made during the
financial year was RM3,498.2 million, of which RM110.3 million was determined based on fair value less costs
of disposal (“FV”) and RM3,387.9 was determined based on value-in-use (“VIU”).

In addition, an impairment charge of RM43.2 million for non-current assets held for sale has been recognised
during the year. The recoverable amount for these vessels of which an impairment charge was made during the
financial year was RM77.8 million, which was determined based on FV.

(i) Recoverable amount determined based on VIU

The key assumptions used in VIU is based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations
of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

The following are key assumptions used in determining the VIU for the FPSO vessel:

• The cash flow projections are based on the expected contractual period of the vessel;
• Expected cash outflow on supplementary payments based on contractual agreements;
• Inflationary rate of 3% is applied;
• Charter rates are based on expected charter fees;
• Discount rate of 6.5% is applied; and
• Residual value of 10% of vessel cost at the end of its useful life.

The impairment recognised in respect of the FPSO vessel amounted to RM1,613.2 million.

(d) (i) Recoverable amount determined based on VIU (continued)

The following are key assumptions used in determining the VIU for the OSV vessels: 04
• The cash flows projection is based on the remaining useful lives of the vessels;
• Revenue projection is based on historical margins and expected future contracts;
• Drydocking expenditure is based on historical trends;
• Inflationary rates of 3% on costs and 5% on charter rates are applied;
• Utilisation rates and charter rates are based on historical trends, existing charter contracts and future
intended use of vessel;
• Discount rate of 7.4% is applied; and
• Residual value of 10% of vessel cost at the end of its useful life.

The impairment recognised in respect of OSV vessels amounted to RM408.0 million.

The sensitivity of the key assumptions with all other variables being held constant to profit or loss is as follows:

(Decrease)/Increase in loss
before taxation
2018
RM’000
Utilisation rate increased by 1% (18,296)
Utilisation rate decreased by 1% 5,279
Charter rate increased by 2% (80,131)
Charter rate decreased by 2% 82,037
Discount rate increased by 1% 14,537
Discount rate decreased by 1% (14,907)
Residual value increased by 1% (10,448)
Residual value decreased by 1% 10,196

(ii) Recoverable amount determined based on FV

The FV of the vessels is estimated based on expected selling price less costs of disposal in the event the vessel
is expected to be sold on a willing buyer and willing seller basis.

The FV for the vessels is assessed based on the assumption that they are charter-free, free of encumbrances,
maritime liens and other debts, and is based on a willing buyer and willing seller basis in an acceptable
area.

The recoverable amount which is determined based on FV is classified as level 3 under the fair value hierarchy.
The impairment recognised in respect of OSV vessels is RM178.5 million, based on the recoverable amount
of RM110.3 million.

An impairment charge of RM43.2 million for non-current assets classified as held for sale has been recognised
during the year based on the FV of the assets, in accordance with MFRS 5 “Non-current Assets Held for Sale
and Discontinued Operations” based on the recoverable amount of RM77.8 million.

(e) For the current financial year, the Group revised the residual value of OSV vessels based on the prevailing market
conditions and the expected value to be obtained for these vessels at the end of their useful lives. The revision
was accounted for as a change in accounting estimate and was effected on 1 December 2018. As a result, the
depreciation charge for current and future periods will increase by RM1.7 million and RM20.7 million respectively.

The fair value of a hedging derivative is classified as a non-current asset or liability if the remaining maturity of the
hedged item is more than 12 months, and as a current asset or liability if the maturity of the hedged item is less than
12 months.

As at 31 December 2018, the net derivative financial liabilities of the Group amounted to RM302.5 million on remeasuring
the fair values of the derivative financial instruments. Of the decrease of RM53.0 million from the previous financial year
ended 31 December 2017, a net amount of RM40.9 million was included in the cash flow hedging reserve attributable
to the Group and non-controlling interests, and RM11.3 million was recycled to profit or loss within finance costs.

RM39.1 million was reclassified to the statements of profit or loss to offset the foreign exchange loss which arose from
the weakening of RM against USD, and RM18.5 million was recycled to profit or loss. This has resulted in a decrease
in the debit balance of the cash flow hedging reserve to a credit balance as at 31 December 2018 by RM98.5 million.

As at 31 December 2017, the Group recognised net derivative financial liabilities of RM355.5 million on remeasuring
the fair values of the derivative financial instruments. Of the decrease of the RM276.4 million from the previous financial
year, a net amount of RM261.7 million was included in the cash flow hedging reserve attributable to the Group and
non-controlling interests, and RM14.9 million was recycled to profit or loss within finance costs for cross currency interest
rate swaps and interest rate swaps.

The Group’s cash flow hedging reserve as at 31 December 2018 represents the effective portion of the deferred fair
value losses relating to the derivative financial instruments which qualified for hedge accounting. The gains and losses
recognised in the cash flow hedging reserve will be released to profit or loss within finance costs over the period of the
underlying borrowings.

36 EMPLOYEE SHARE OPTIONS SCHEME

The Company implemented an Employees’ Share Options Scheme (“ESOS” or “Scheme”) which came into effect on
28 June 2011 for a period of 10 years to 27 June 2021. The ESOS is governed by the By-Laws which were approved
by the shareholders on 18 June 2011. The main features of the Scheme are as follows:

(a) An eligible employee shall pay a sum of RM1.00 as consideration for the acceptance of the share options offer. An
option shall be exercisable at a price which is the weighted average of the market price quotation of the shares for
the five (5) market days immediately preceding the date on which the options are granted, rounded to the nearest
sen, or the par value of the shares, whichever is higher.

(b) Unless otherwise determined by our Board (or such other committee appointed by our Board to administer the
ESOS), each option shall become exercisable, to the extent of one-third of the shares covered thereby, on each of
the first three (3) anniversaries of the date of grant, if the holder of such option shall have been in the continuous
service of the Company or its subsidiaries that are not dormant throughout such period. No options shall be
exercisable if the exercise of such options would violate any provision of applicable laws, nor shall any options be
exercisable more than ten (10) years from the date on which the Scheme became effective.

(c) No option shall be granted pursuant to the ESOS on or after the 10th anniversary of the date on which the Scheme
became effective.

(d) The new shares issued upon the exercise of an option will be subject to all the provisions of the Company’s
Memorandum and Articles of Association and the Main Market Listing Requirements of Bursa Malaysia Securities
Berhad and shall rank pari passu in all respects with the then existing issued ordinary shares of the Company, save
that they will not entitle the holders thereof to receive any rights or bonus issue or dividends or distributions the
entitlement date of which precedes the date of the issue of such new shares.

(e) The total number of shares to be issued under the ESOS shall not exceed in aggregate 10% of the issued share
capital of the Company at any point of time during the tenure of the ESOS and out of which not more than 50%
of the shares shall be allocated, in aggregate, to Executive Directors and senior management of the Group. In
addition, not more than 10% of the shares available under the ESOS shall be allocated to any individual employee
or Executive Director who, either singly or collectively through persons connected with him/her, holds 20% or
more in the issued and paid-up capital of the Company. The Company is in compliance with the requirements with
regards to the options granted to the Executive Directors and senior management during the financial year.

36 EMPLOYEE SHARE OPTIONS SCHEME (CONTINUED)

The fair value as at the grant date of share options granted in the previous financial year was determined using the Black
Scholes valuation model, taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted. The inputs
to the model used were as follows: 04
2014

Dividend yield (%) 0.78% to 1.66%


Expected volatility (%) 27.1% to 29.8%
Risk-free interest rate (%) 3.11% to 3.57%

Share price at date of grant (RM) 1.83 to 2.39
Exercise price of options (RM) 1.83 to 2.39
Fair value of options at date of grant (RM) 0.26 to 0.50

The expected average life of options is based on historical information, which may not necessarily be indicative of the
future exercise pattern that may occur. The expected volatility reflects the assumptions based on the historical volatility on
the assumptions that this is indicative of future trends which may also not necessarily be the actual outcome.

and issuance, rank equally in all respects with the then existing issued shares. The new shares to be allotted and
issued pursuant to the vesting of the grant under the MIP shall not be entitled to any voting rights, dividends, rights,
allotments, distributions and/or any other entitlements, for which the entitlement date is prior to the date on which
the new shares are credited into the CDS Accounts of the respective grantees.

of the Company at issue price above the nominal value.

Effective from 31 January 2017, the new Companies Act 2016 (“the Act”) abolished the concept of authorised

(b) Foreign exchange reserve

The foreign exchange reserve comprises all foreign exchange differences arising from the translation of the
financial statements of entities that have functional currency different from the Group’s presentation currency.

(c) Share option reserve

The share option reserve comprises the cumulative value of employee services received for the issue of share
options by the Company. The fair value, measured at grant date of the share options granted to these employees is
recognised as an employee expense in profit or loss and a corresponding increase in equity, over the period that
the employees become unconditionally entitled to the options.

within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Group estimates the fair value of finance lease receivables, amounts due from joint ventures and the fixed rate Sukuk
Murabahah by discounting future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate available to the Group for
similar financial instruments. The discount rates to determine fair value of finance lease receivables, amounts due from
joint ventures and the fixed rate Sukuk Murabahah range between 6.35% and 11.00% respectively (2017: 6.29% and
11.00% respectively).

The Group believes that its estimate of fair value is appropriate and the use of different methodologies or assumptions
could lead to different measurement of fair value.

43 MATERIAL LITIGATION

Save as disclosed below, as at 31 December 2018, neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries were involved in any
material litigation, claims or arbitration, and the Company and its subsidiaries are not aware of any material litigation,
claims or arbitration pending or threatened against the Company and its subsidiaries:

In the Supreme Court of Western Australia between Armada Balnaves Pte Ltd and Woodside Energy Julimar Pty Ltd

The matter arose out of a dispute between Armada Balnaves Pte Ltd (“ABPL”), a wholly-owned subsidiary, and Woodside
Energy Julimar Pty Ltd (“WEJ”) in relation to a contract for the provision of floating production storage and offloading
services dated 30 September 2011 (“Contract”). On 4 March 2016, WEJ purported to terminate the Contract by issuing
a notice of termination to ABPL. ABPL considered this purported termination by WEJ tantamount to a cancellation for
convenience, or a repudiation of the Contract, either of which entitles ABPL to claim damages.

On 14 March 2016, ABPL filed a Writ of Summons in the Supreme Court of Western Australia (“Supreme Court”)
against WEJ for, inter alia, (i) a declaration that WEJ was in repudiatory breach of the Contract and (ii) damages for
WEJ’s breach of the Contract. Subsequently, on 20 April 2016, ABPL filed its Statement of Claim in the Supreme Court
against WEJ claiming for damages in general for WEJ’s repudiation of the Contract, and the amount of such damages
has been quantified by ABPL to include the sum of USD275,813,698.63 (being the amount of the termination payment
to which ABPL is entitled had the Contract been terminated without breach) plus any additional damages for loss of
bargain caused to ABPL as a consequence of WEJ’s repudiation of the Contract. ABPL is also claiming for the additional
sum of USD7,700,000.00 for work done and materials supplied pursuant to the Contract. WEJ had, on 2 June 2016,
filed its defence to ABPL’s Statement of Claim. The trial for this matter commenced at the Supreme Court on 18 February
2019 and the parties served written closing submissions and made closing oral submissions on 26 and 27 March 2019.
Judgment is expected around October to December 2019.

The Group is of the view that there are reasonable grounds to expect a favourable outcome in respect of ABPL’s claims
with regards to the said repudiation by WEJ of the Contract. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the award of damages in
the event of a favourable outcome is subject to final determination by the Supreme Court.

The table below analyses financial instruments carried at fair value, by valuation method. The different levels have been
identified as follows:
04
• 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 (that is, as price) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices).
• Level 3 - Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable
inputs).

The fair value of financial instruments traded in active market is based on quoted market price at the reporting date. This
instrument is included in Level 1.

The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined by using valuation techniques,
such as estimated discounted cash flows that are used to determine fair value for the derivative financial instruments.
The fair value of cross currency interest rate swaps and interest rate swaps are calculated as the present value of the
estimated future cash flows.

The following table presents the Group’s financial assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value as at

45 ADOPTION OF MFRS 9 AND MFRS 15

This note explains the impact of the adoption of MFRS 9 and MFRS 15 from 1 January 2018 on the Group’s financial
statements for the financial year ended 31 December 2018. The summary of the impact to the Group’s retained earnings

(a) MFRS 9 “Financial instruments”

The Group has applied MFRS 9 with the date of initial application of 1 January 2018. The standard is applied
retrospectively. In accordance with the transitional provisions provided in MFRS 9, comparative information of
2017 was not restated and continued to be reported under the previous accounting policies governed under MFRS
139, with the exception of certain aspects of hedge accounting. The cumulative effects of initially applying MFRS
9 were recognised as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as at 1 January 2018.

The adoption of MFRS 9 resulted in changes in accounting policies and adjustments to the amounts recognised
in the financial statements. The new accounting policies are set out in Section C of the Preface to the Financial
Statements.

Classification and measurement

On 1 January 2018, the Group has assessed which business models apply to the financial assets held by the
Group and reviewed the classification of its financial instruments into the appropriate MFRS 9 categories. There
are no changes to the classification and measurement of the financial instruments except for reclassification of
available-for-sale financial assets to financial assets at FVOCI. See Note 15 and 16 for details.

45 ADOPTION OF MFRS 9 AND MFRS 15 (CONTINUED)

(a) MFRS 9 “Financial instruments” (continued)

Derivatives and hedging activities

The IRS and CCIRS in place as at 1 January 2018 qualified as cash flow hedges under MFRS 9. The Group’s
risk management strategies and hedge documentation are aligned with the requirements of MFRS 9 and these
relationships are therefore treated as continuing hedges.

Since the adoption of MFRS 9, gains or losses relating to the effective portion of the changes in fair value of CCIRS
(excluding foreign currency basis spread) are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in cash
flow hedge reserve within equity. The Group recognises changes in the foreign currency basis spread of CCIRS in
the costs of hedging reserve within equity, resulting in a reclassification of a loss of RM73.3 million and RM126.1
million from cash flow hedge reserve to the costs of hedging reserve and spot component of CCIRS respectively as
at 1 January 2017. See Note 38 for details.

Impairment of financial assets

The Group has replaced its impairment methodology of financial assets with the forward-looking expected credit
loss (“ECL”) model. Under MFRS 9, loss allowances will be measured either via the simplified approach or the
general approach (incorporating 12-month ECL and Lifetime ECL). See Section E – Credit risk for the measurement
details of ECL.

The total impact on adoption of ECL model to the Group’s reserves as at 1 January 2018 is as follows:

(b) MFRS 15 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”

The Group has applied MFRS 15 with the date of initial application of 1 January 2018 by using the modified 04
retrospective transition method. Under the modified retrospective transition method, the Group applies the
new policy retrospectively only to contracts that are not completed contracts at the date of initial application.
Accordingly, the 2017 comparative information was not restated and the cumulative effects of initial application of
MFRS 15 were recognised as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as at 1 January 2018.
The comparative information continued to be reported under the previous accounting policies governed under
MFRS 118 and MFRS 111.

In addition, the Group has elected the practical expedient not to retrospectively restate contracts that were modified
before the date of initial application.

The main changes arising from the adoption of MFRS 15 are as follows:

(i) Accounting for additional performance obligations identified

MFRS 15 requires the identification of performance obligations within a contract and to allocate the transaction
price to the performance obligation in an amount that depicts the amount of consideration to which the
entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring the promised goods or services to the customer.
In assessing the impact of MFRS 15, the Group has allocated the transaction price to each performance
obligation (or distinct good or service) by considering all information that is reasonably available to the
Group, as further elaborated in Section C(l). The point at which revenue is recognised for each performance
obligation may vary depending on when control of each good or service is transferred to the customer. The
assessment has been performed for the Group and joint ventures.

(ii) Accounting for certain costs incurred in obtaining a contract

Under MFRS 15, costs that are incremental to obtaining a contract shall be recognised as an asset if the
Group expects to recover those costs. Costs to obtain a contract that would have been incurred regardless of
whether the contract was obtained shall be recognised as an expense when incurred, unless those costs are
explicitly chargeable to the customer regardless of whether the contract is awarded to the Group.

AUDITORS' REPORT

(Incorporated in Malaysia) (Company No. 370398-X)

REPORT ON THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Our opinion

In our opinion, the financial statements of Bumi Armada Berhad (“the Company”) and its subsidiaries (“the Group”) give 04
a true and fair view of the financial position of the Group and of the Company as at 31 December 2018, and of their
financial performance and their cash flows for the financial year then ended in accordance with Malaysian Financial Reporting
Standards, International Financial Reporting Standards and the requirements of the Companies Act 2016 in Malaysia.

What we have audited

We have audited the financial statements of the Group and of the Company, which comprise the statements of financial position
as at 31 December 2018 of the Group and of the Company, and the statements of income, statements of comprehensive
income, statements of changes in equity and statements of cash flows of the Group and of the Company for the financial year
then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, as set out on pages
81 to 209.

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia and International Standards on
Auditing. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the “Auditors’ responsibilities for the audit of the
financial statements” section of our report.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Independence and other ethical responsibilities

We are independent of the Group and of the Company in accordance with the By-Laws (on Professional Ethics, Conduct and
Practice) of the Malaysian Institute of Accountants (“By-Laws”) and the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants’
Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (“IESBA Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance
with the By-Laws and the IESBA Code.

Our audit approach

As part of designing our audit, we determined materiality and assessed the risks of material misstatement in the financial
statements of the Group and of the Company. In particular, we considered where the Directors made subjective judgements; for
example, in respect of significant accounting estimates that involved making assumptions and considering future events that are
inherently uncertain. As in all of our audits, we also addressed the risk of management override of internal controls, including
among other matters, consideration of whether there was evidence of bias that represented a risk of material misstatement due
to fraud.

We tailored the scope of our audit in order to perform sufficient work to enable us to provide an opinion on the financial
statements as a whole, taking into account the structure of the Group and of the Company, the accounting processes and
controls, and the industry in which the Group and the Company operate.

Key audit matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial
statements of the Group and of the Company for the current financial year. These matters were addressed in the context of our
audit of the financial statements of the Group and of the Company as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we
do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Information other than the financial statements and auditors’ report thereon

The Directors of the Company are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the Directors' Report 04
and Statement on Risk Management and Internal Control, but does not include the financial statements of the Group and of the
Company and our auditors’ report thereon.

Our opinion on the financial statements of the Group and of the Company does not cover the other information and we do not
express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements of the Group and of the Company, our responsibility is to read the other
information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements
of the Group and of the Company or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of the other information, we are
required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of the Directors for the financial statements

The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements of the Group and of the Company
that give a true and fair view in accordance with Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards, International Financial Reporting
Standards and the requirements of the Companies Act 2016 in Malaysia. The Directors are also responsible for such internal
control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements of the Group and of the
Company that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements of the Group and of the Company, the Directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s
and the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and
using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Directors either intend to liquidate the Group or the Company or to
cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditors’ responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements of the Group and of the Company
as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes
our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance
with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia and International Standards on Auditing will always detect a material
misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in
the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these
financial statements.

REPORT ON THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

Auditors’ responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements (continued)

As part of an audit in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia and International Standards on Auditing,
we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

(a) Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements of the Group and of the Company,
whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence
that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement
resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional
omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

(b) Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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 Group’s and of the
Company’s internal control.

(c) Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related
disclosures made by the Directors.

(d) Conclude on the appropriateness of the Directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit
evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt
on the Group’s or on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty
exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors’ report to the related disclosures in the financial statements of the
Group and of the Company or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on
the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors’ report. However, future events or conditions may cause the
Group or the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

(e) Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements of the Group and of the Company,
including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements of the Group and of the Company represent the underlying
transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

(f) Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities
within the Group to express an opinion on the financial statements of the Group. We are responsible for the direction,
supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate with the Directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant
audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide the Directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding
independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on
our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with the Directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the
financial statements of the Group and of the Company for the current financial year and are therefore the key audit matters.
We describe these matters in our auditors’ report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when,
in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse
consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

to the next annual general meeting in 2020 comprise the estimated total fees of RM2.4 million and estimated total

4) RE-APPOINTMENT OF AUDITORS

Messrs. PricewaterhouseCoopers PLT, the auditors of the Company have expressed their willingness to continue in

recommendation that they be retained after taking into account relevant feedback on their experience, performance and
independence following a formal assessment.

5) Authority to issue ordinary shares pursuant to Section 75 and Section 76 of the CA 2016 and the
Main Market Listing Requirements (“MMLR”)

Proposed Resolution 5 is to seek a renewal of the general authority pursuant to Section 75 and Section 76 of the CA
2016 and the MMLR for the issue and allotment of new ordinary shares in the Company.

As at 29 March 2019, the Company has not issued any new shares pursuant to the previous mandate.

Proposed Resolution 5, if passed, would enable Directors to issue and allot new ordinary shares up to an amount not
exceeding ten per centum (10%) of the Company’s issued share capital from time to time. This will, among others,
provide them the flexibility to raise funds, including but not limited to further placement of shares for purposes of funding
future investment project(s), working capital and/or acquisitions without convening a general meeting which will be both
time and cost consuming. This authority, unless revoked or varied at a general meeting, will expire at the conclusion of
the next annual general meeting of the Company.

Should there be a decision to issue and allot ordinary shares after the said authority has been given, the Company
will make the appropriate announcement on the purpose and/or utilisation of proceeds arising from such issuance and
allotment.

6) Proposed offer, grant and/or allotment in respect of ordinary shares in the Company to
Mr Gary Neal Christenson, Executive Director pursuant to the Company’s Management Incentive
Plan (“MIP”)

Proposed Resolution 6 are to seek authority in respect of the proposed offer, grant and/or allotment in respect of ordinary
shares in the Company under the MIP to Mr Gary Neal Christenson (“Mr Christenson”), Executive Director.

On 23 May 2016, we had obtained your approval for the establishment of the MIP including the authority to offer, grant
and/or allot shares to employees and executive directors who fulfil the criteria of eligibility for participation in the MIP.

The proposed offer, grant and/or allotment in respect of ordinary shares under the Company’s MIP to Mr Christenson,
is intended to, amongst others, serve as a long term incentive plan that aligns the Executive Director’s interests with the
long term objectives and business strategies of our Group.

NOTES :

1. A member of the Company entitled to attend and vote at this meeting is entitled to appoint one (1) or more proxies to attend, participate, speak and vote for him/
her subject to the following provisions:

(i) save as provided for in Note 2, the Companies Act 2016 ("CA 2016") and any applicable law, each member shall not be permitted to appoint more than
two (2) proxies; and
(ii) where a member appoints more than one (1) proxy, the appointment shall be invalid provided that he/she specifies the proportion of the member’s shareholdings
to be represented by each proxy.

2. For the avoidance of doubt and subject always to Note 1, the CA 2016 and any applicable law:

(i) where a member of the Company is an authorised nominee, it may appoint at least one (1) proxy in respect of each securities account it holds to which ordinary
shares in the Company are credited. Each appointment of proxy by an authorised nominee shall be made separately or in one instrument of proxy which shall
specify the securities account number and the name of the beneficial owner for whom the authorised nominee is acting;
(ii) where a member is an exempt authorised nominee which holds ordinary shares in the Company for multiple beneficial owners in one (1) securities account
(“omnibus account”), there is no limit to the number of proxies which the exempt authorised nominee may appoint in respect of each omnibus account it holds.

3. A proxy may but need not be a member of the Company. There shall be no restriction as to the qualification of the proxy.

4. The instrument appointing a proxy shall:


(i) in the case of an individual, be signed by the appointor or by his/her attorney; and
(ii) in the case of a corporation, be either under its common seal or signed by its attorney or by an officer on behalf of the corporation.

5. The instrument appointing a proxy must be deposited at the office of the Company’s Share Registrars, Boardroom Share Registrars Sdn Bhd at Level
6, Symphony House, Pusat Dagangan Dana 1, Jalan PJU 1A/46, 47301 Petaling Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia, not less than 24 hours before the
time appointed for the taking of the poll at the 23rd AGM (i.e. the proxy form needs to be deposited no later than 27 May 2019 at 2.00 p.m.) or adjourned meeting.
Otherwise, the instrument of proxy shall not be treated as valid and the person so named shall not be entitled to vote in respect thereof. Faxed copies of the duly
executed form of proxy are not acceptable.

6. The resolutions put to the votes at the 23rd AGM shall be determined by poll. A proxy may vote on a poll. If the form of proxy is returned without an indication as
to how the proxy shall vote on any particular matter, the proxy may exercise his discretion as to whether to vote on such matter and if so, how. A proxy appointed
to attend and vote at a meeting of the Company shall have the same rights as the member to speak at the meeting and the instrument appointing a proxy shall be
deemed to confer authority to demand or join in demanding a poll.

7. The lodging of a form of proxy does not preclude a member from attending and voting in person at the meeting should the member subsequently decide to do so.

8. Personal Data Privacy

By submitting the duly executed form of proxy, a member of the Company (i) consents to the collection, use and disclosure of the member’s personal data by

compliance with any applicable laws, rules or regulations and guidelines (collectively the “Purposes”); and (ii) warrants that the member has obtained the prior
consent of its proxy(ies) and/or representatives for the collection, use and disclosure by the Company (or its agents) of the personal data of such proxy(ies) and/or
