well as to enhance timely and reliable delivery services to the Group’s overall operations.
In addition, Mewah Exim is also able to provide an integrated total logistics solution and door to door delivery
service using a single entry point. The Board also believes that the acquisition would provide the Group with more
opportunities to build its presence in Peninsular Malaysia and participate through a wider network of office for a more
efficient management and coordination of transportation shipments and scheduling as a whole.
3. Financial Results
The Group recorded a gross revenue of RM939.6million, representing of 5.2% increase from the previous financial
year ended 30 June 2022. The increase was due to the higher charter activities and utilisation rates from the shipping
segments as well as the improved sales volume and high demand for transportation and logistics services.

2022 (“FYE2022”)

& machinery and many more plying Miri, Bintulu, Sibu, Kuching, Kota Kinabalu, Sandakan, Port Klang,
Brunei, Singapore, Thailand and Indonesia on a regular basis.

and domestic charterers. Our current major charterers are from oil and gas, timber downstream, oil palm
industries and other resource based industries The Group is actively participating in sand extraction and
reclamation of land with its fleet of tugs and barges and managing total logistic service providers.

from USD26 to USD60 per metric ton.
The Group has signed an on-going five year contract of affreightment with Petronas Chemical Marketing
(Labuan) LTD. to ship methanol products from Labuan via vessel with parcel size below 1,500MT.
24 SHIN YANG GROUP BERHAD ANNUAL REPORT 2023
(Formerly known as Shin Yang Shipping Corporation Berhad)
The Group is expected to improve its container shipping service by establishing strategic alliance with
business partners to provide efficient and effective port services while the partners aim to achieve
economies of scale to increase shipping service frequency routes from our existing sixteen (16) units of
container vessels.
The Group has two (2) units of container vessels with carrying capacities of 800-1,000 TEU per trip plying
between Sarawak and Singapore to strengthen the container shipping activities. The other container
vessels serve ports between Peninsular Malaysia, Sarawak and Sabah. The Group has converted two (2)
tug-and-barges to transport containers for shorter routes to ensure that there is no shortage of shipping
spaces. The Group has leased out two container vessels for container shipment between China, Vietnam
and Philippine.
d) International Shipping
Our five (5) double decker cargo vessels consistently ply routes to the far east regions and have shipped
0.467 million cubic meters of cargo with freight rates of USD42 – USD 54 per cubic meter. For the returning
inbound routes, they were mainly on time charter for shipments of general cargo from far east regions to
the Philippines and other Asean countries, enroute to home region.
With the foreseen stable demand toward the international shipping due to supply uncertainty in term of
freight rates and utilisation, our emphasis is on time charter of vessels for international shipping.
There are signs of recovery in shipbuilding due to capital expenditures by the oil and gas industry players.
During the year, we have constructed and delivered one (1) vessel. Our current book order stands at RM 175.7
million with five (5) new build contracts secured.
The ship repair sector satisfactorily repaired a total of 585 units (FYE 2022: 518) of vessels including minor
and major repairs. Our 160 meter length and 80 meter length floating docks enable us to effectively carry out
improved vessel repair and maintenance works. Our current book order stands at RM 89.3 million with seven
(7) major ship repair contracts secured.
ANNUAL REPORT 2023 SHIN YANG GROUP BERHAD 25
(Formerly known as Shin Yang Shipping Corporation Berhad)
The performance of the Group is largely dependent on the volatility of the world’s fuel market price, the standard
of skills and experience of ship crews, domestic and regional demand for transportation of dry bulk and general
cargoes, movement of the Malaysian Ringgit and the world economic situation, all of which may significantly disrupt
business operations.
The prospects for the shipping industry continue to remain challenging, with the recent hike in crude oil price and
increase in the Baltic Dry Index. The Group is prepared to weather this challenge with the selective market driven
routes based on fleet load utilization. The Group is confident in the stability of the domestic, coastal and container
shipping operations given the stable container volume. The Group is actively strengthening the business in terms
of operational and cost efficiency, fleet efficiency and routes enhancement to ensure the readiness to capture
opportunities as when they arise.
Other factors contributing to the prospects of the shipbuilding and ship repair operations include the price movements
of marine mild steel plates, other heavy equipment and machinery and the global trend of demand for newly
constructed vessels especially from the niche market segments in the oil and gas industry. In order to improve the
performance and manage the operating expenditures, the Group is taking initiatives such as focusing on improving
the ship repair operations to meet the requirements of the niche market segments in the oil and gas industry which
has showed signs of higher utilisation rate of offshore supply vessels and also to satisfy the requirements of other
potential markets from the resource-based sectors.
With the ever growing popularity of online purchases, the Group recognises a higher demand for logistic and haulage
services and hence has viewed the potential in container depots, haulage services including trucking and warehouse
services as another opportunity for the Group.
The Group remains prudent to further improve its efficiency and productivity in both the fleets efficiency and
shipbuilding activities and cost control, coupled with the expected sustainable fleet utilisation, the performance of
the Group is anticipated to be satisfactory and is expected to only improve as the Group progresses through the

enhance health and condition awareness, operational assistance, operational optimisation and decision-
making support.
The Group is aware of its industry’s impact on the environment which includes generating of industrial wastes, water
and air pollution and depletion of natural resource, such as energy and water.
In raising awareness on the key environmental issues, the Group is committed in operating in a manner that does
not compromise on the health of ecosystems in which it operates in the long term. The Group continuously improves
on its resource management and environmental management to ensure that natural resources are conserved for the
next generation.
The Group is committed to the 4Rs principles (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle and Recover) to reduce wastage.
For onshore office, all staff has been instilled with the culture of computer data storage whenever possible to
reduce paper consumption.
The shipbuilding and ship repairing operations such as welding and cutting generate solid wastes, especially
scrap metal. Such scraps, which have economic value are recycled and reused for other sub projects and to
rebuild aged vessels for example our conversion vessel of CPO barge to commercial container vessel. This
helps to increase our resource efficiency for materials consumption.
Waste management plans are implemented on all of our vessels. Waste separation is carried out on board
and recyclable items such as plastic, paper and glass are sent to shore recycling facilities. Other types of
waste are collected for treatment, recovery or disposal at shore, while waste which are permitted for on-board
incineration are disposed of in the shipboard incinerator. The only waste that is allowed to be disposed at sea
is food waste, without packaging or container. This disposal is carried out in compliance with MARPOL (The
International Convention for Prevention of Marine Pollution For Ships).

Waste management and pollution implemented on-board vessels are governed by the International Convention
For The Prevention of Pollution from Ships 1973/1978 (“MARPOL”) with the objective of minimising pollution of
the oceans and seas, including dumping, oil and air pollution.
We take pro-active initiatives in the management of our environment including emission mitigation. The Group
embarked on IMO’s Data Collection System (DCS) that is developed in the context of reduction of greenhouse
gases (GHG)/carbon dioxide emissions and with the target of measuring and potentially reducing the CO2
emissions in the maritime industry.
Preventive actions are identified and controls are established to prevent any pollution and environmental
hazards. All garbage accumulated is compressed to its possible minimum size prior to disposal to shore
facilities.
All of our ships engaged in international trade carry a ballast water record book and an International Ballast
Water Management Certificate. The Group manage the ballast water and sediments, according to a ship-
specific ballast water management plan to avoid the introduction of alien species into coastal areas, including
exchanging the ballast water or treating it using an approved ballast water management system.
We have Zero incidents of significant oil spills in 2023 and have maintained a 100% vessel-compliance rate for
oil spill regulations. We aim to maintain this target and outcome in 2024.

Fuel is our prime resource. The Group continuously monitors and controls its fuel consumption to ensure
optimal use on its operations.
IMO 2020 mandates a maximum sulphur content of 0.5% in marine fuels globally. As of last quarter of
2019, the Group has complied with the new emission standards of instituted low sulphur Fuel Oil with a
sulphur content of 0.5% or less instead of using the cheaper high sulphur HFO. In Emission control areas
(ECAs), the Group has complied to use the 0.1% sulphur content fuel oil to minimize airborne emissions
from ships. This subsequently reduces the air pollution created in the shipping industry by reducing the
sulphur content of the fuels that ships use. The fuel consumption of the Group is as follows:-
2023 2022
Fuel consumption (MT) LSFO MDO/MGO LSFO MDO/MGO

Climate change poses a significant threat to the environment, societies and the economy. The Group recognises
the importance of quantifying carbon footprint or greenhouse gases emissions.
The Group disclose these measurements as part of our Scope 1 and Scope 2 as below:-
Note:
Scope 1 emissions are defined as emissions based on petrol and diesel claimed
¹ The Scope 1 emissions were calculated by multiplying the fuel consumption (in litre) by the Malaysian Green
Technology and Climate Change Corporation (MGTC) emission factor.
² The Scope 2 emissions were calculated by multiplying the electricity consumption (in kWh) by the Malaysian
Green Technology and Climate Change Corporation (MGTC) emission factor.

The Board acknowledges its responsibilities and are fully committed to maintaining a sound risk management practices and
internal control environment to safeguard the Shareholders’ investments and the Group’s assets. The Board has an overall
responsibility for the Group’s system of risk management and internal control and its effectiveness, as well as reviewing its
adequacy and integrity. The Group’s risk management process and system of internal control consists of financial controls,
operational and compliance controls and risk management to safeguard the shareholders’ investment and assets of the
Group.
In view of the limitations that are inherent in any system of risk management and internal control, our system is designed
to manage rather than eliminate the risk of failure to achieve corporate objectives. Therefore, the system can only provide
reasonable, but not absolute, assurance against any material misstatements, financial losses, defalcations or fraud. The
Board continuously evaluates appropriate measures to strengthen the transparency and efficiency of its operations taking
into account of the requirements for sound and appropriate internal control and management information system of the
Group.
The Board is of the view that the risk management and internal control system in place for the year under review and up to
the date of issuance of the financial statements is adequate and effective to safeguard the shareholders’ investment, the
interests of customers, regulators, employees and the Group’s assets.
The Board, through its Audit and Risk Management Committee (“ARMC”) has established an ongoing process for identifying,
evaluating, and managing the significant risks faced by the Group and this process includes enhancing the risk management
and internal control system as and when there are changes to the business environment and regulatory requirements. The
process is reviewed by the Board and the ARMC on a periodic basis.
The Management assists the Board in the implementation of the Board’s policies and procedures on risk and control by
identifying and assessing the risks faced by the Group, and also in the design and operation of suitable internal controls to
mitigate these risks identified.
The effectiveness of internal controls was reviewed by the ARMC in relation to the audits conducted by the internal auditors
(“IA”) during the financial year. Audit issues and actions taken by the Management to address the issues tabled by IA were
deliberated during the ARMC meetings. Minutes of the ARMC meetings which recorded these deliberations were presented
to the Board.
Internal control and risk-related matters which warranted the attention of the Board were recommended by the ARMC to the
Board for its deliberation and approval and matters or decisions made within the ARMC’s purview were referred to the Board
for its notation.
MANAGEMENT RESPONSIBILITY
The Management assists the Board in the implementation of the Board’s policies and procedures on risk and control by
identifying, assessing, monitoring and reporting risk and internal control, as well as taking proper actions to address such
risks. The Management has further assured the Board that the Group’s risk management and internal control system is

iv) Risk Monitoring and Reporting
The Board recognises the importance of Enterprise Risk Management (“ERM”) in enhancing shareholder value while
upholding a high standard of corporate governance. Combining a strong and sustained commitment from the Board and
Senior Management with a clear direction and oversight from all levels of leadership, the Group embraces a holistic risk
management approach to achieve its business targets with minimal surprises.
The Board continues to ensure that risk management is effectively institutionalised and its risk maturity level is elevated. This
is achieved via a multitude of ERM initiatives clustered into key strategic areas as part of the Group’s efforts to ensure smooth
ERM practice on the ground coupled with continuous tracking and monitoring of risks and controls. It also strengthens its risk
culture and practice, harmonise its risks and risk appetites at the operational level wherever possible.
The external auditors have reviewed this Statement on Risk Management and Internal Control pursuant to the scope set
out in Audit and Assurance Practice Guide 3, Guidance for Auditors on Engagements to Report on the Statement on Risk
Management and Internal Control included in the Annual Report (“AAPG3”) issued by the Malaysian Institute of Accountants
(“MIA”) for inclusion in the Annual Report of the Group for the year ended 30 June 2023, and reported to the Board that
nothing has come to their attention that cause them to believe that the statement intended to be included in the Annual Report
of the Group, in all material respects: has not been prepared in accordance with the disclosures required by paragraphs 41
and 42 of the Statement on Risk Management and Internal Control: Guidelines for Directors of Listed Issuers, or is factually
inaccurate.
AAPG3 does not require the external auditors to consider whether the Directors’ Statement on Risk Management and Internal
Control covers all risks and controls, or to form an opinion on the adequacy and effectiveness of the Group’s risk management
and internal control system including the assessment and opinion by the Directors and Management thereon. The report from
the external auditor was made solely for, and directed solely to the Board in connection with their compliance with the listing
requirements of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad and for no other purposes or parties. The external auditors do not assume
responsibility to any person other than the Board of Directors in respect of any aspect of this report.
Board Meeting

papers, comprehensive explanation and feedback from the board members are the prerequisites to arriving at an informed
decision. In addition, the Board is kept updated on the Group’s activities and operations on a regular basis.
We have in place an organisational structure with defined responsibility lines and authority to facilitate response to changes
in the business environment and accountability for operational performance. Capital and non-capital expenditures and
acquisition and disposal of investment interests are subject to appropriate approval processes and evaluations.
We generate comprehensive management reports on a regular and consistent basis and present to the Board for its review.
The review encompasses financial and non-financial key performance indicators, operation progress and performance report.
We also have business planning and a budgetary system in place to manage performance of the business activities and

74 SHIN YANG GROUP BERHAD ANNUAL REPORT 2023
(Formerly known as Shin Yang Shipping Corporation Berhad)
The documented policies and procedures form an integral control system to safeguard the Group’s assets against material
losses and to ensure completeness and accuracy of financial information. The documents consist of memorandum, circulars
and letters, which are continuously being revised and updated to meet operational needs.
Internal Control
The Internal Audit (“IA”) provides independent assessment on the effectiveness and efficiency of internal controls to support
the corporate governance framework and to assist the Group in enhancing its existing risk management framework.
The IA reports regularly on the internal control system and the effectiveness of the risk management system of the Group in
its quarterly reports to Audit and Risk Management Committee (“ARMC”)
The IA reviews compliance with policies and procedures and advises executive and operational management areas for
improvement and subsequently reviews the extent to which its recommendations have been implemented. The IA also
conducts a follow up review on the implementations status of action plans agreed by the Management.
The IA focuses on high priority activities determined by the risk assessment and in accordance with the audit planning
memorandum approved by the ARMC.
The IA is free from any relationships or conflict of interest, which could impair its objectivity and independence.
Quality Assurance
The IA develops and maintains a quality assurance and improvement programme that covers all aspects of internal audit
activities. The quality assurance programme assesses the effectiveness of IA processes and identifies opportunities for
improvement via both internal and external assessments. It has its own peer reviewer mechanism to ensure consistently good
quality output of every audit engagement. The team leader is well experienced to manage the internal audit assignments.
While the Management has full responsibility in ensuring the effectiveness of internal control, which it establishes, the Board
of Directors has the authority to assess the state of internal control as it deems necessary. In doing so, the Board has the right
to enquire information and clarification from the Management as well as to seek inputs from the ARMC, external and internal
auditors, and other experts at the expense of the Company.
The Board has received assurance from the Group Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer that the Group’s risk
management and internal control system is operating adequately and effectively, in all material aspects, based on the risk
management practices and internal control system of the Group.
The Audit and Risk Management Committee reviews the adequacy and effectiveness of the Group’s systems of internal
control as well as reviews issues identified by the internal auditors. The ARMC also ensures that there is a continuous effort
by the Management to address and resolve areas where weaknesses exist.
All audit findings, recommendations and management actions are rigorously deliberated upon during ARMC meetings before
reporting to the Board. Quarterly reports to the ARMC track the progress towards completion of all corrective actions taken
on issues highlighted by the Group Internal Audit.
The ARMC reviews the quarterly results of the Group and if satisfied, recommends adoption of such results to the Board.
Conclusion
The Board is also cognisant of the fact that the Group’s system of internal control and risk management practices must
continuously evolve to meet the changing and challenging business environment. Continuous management efforts are in
place to further enhance the Group’s system of internal control and risk management framework. There was no major internal
control weakness identified during the year under review that may result in any material loss or uncertainty to the Group.

Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Shin Yang Group Berhad (formerly known as Shin Yang
Shipping Corporation Berhad), which comprise the statements of financial position as at 30 June 2023 of the
Group and of the Company, and the statements of profit or loss and other 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 97 to 201.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of
the Group and of the Company as at 30 June 2023, 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.
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.
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’ International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including
International Independence Standards) (“IESBA Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical
responsibilities in accordance with the By-Laws and the IESBA Code.
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 information included in the annual report, 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 this
other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
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.
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.
Page 14
ANNUAL REPORT 2023 SHIN YANG GROUP BERHAD 95
(Formerly known as Shin Yang Shipping Corporation Berhad)
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:-
• 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 provid e
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.
• 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 the Company’s internal control.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting
estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.
• 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 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 go ing
concern.
• 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.
• 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.
Page 15
96 SHIN YANG GROUP BERHAD ANNUAL REPORT 2023
(Formerly known as Shin Yang Shipping Corporation Berhad)
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, actions taken to eliminate
threats or safeguards applied.
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.
In accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2016 in Malaysia, we report that the
subsidiaries of which we have not acted as auditors, are disclosed in Note 7 to the financial statements.
OTHER MATTERS
This report is made solely to the members of the Company, as a body, in accordance with Section 266
of the Companies Act 2016 in Malaysia and for no other purpose. We do not assume responsibility to
any other person for the content of this report.

Management believes that there are no key assumptions made concerning the future, and other
key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing
a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial
year other than as disclosed below:-
The estimates for the residual values, useful lives and related depreciation charges for the
property and equipment are based on commercial factors which could change significantly
as a result of technical innovations and competitors’ actions in response to the market
conditions. Changes in the expected level of usage and technological development could
impact the economic useful lives and the residual values of these assets, therefore future
depreciation charges could be revised. The carrying amount of property and equipment as
at the reporting date is disclosed in Note 9 to the financial statements.

THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2023
The Group uses the simplified approach to estimate a lifetime expected credit loss
allowance for all trade receivables and contract assets. The contract assets are grouped
with trade receivables for impairment assessment because they have substantially the
same risk characteristics as the trade receivables for the same types of contracts. The
Group develops the expected loss rates based on the payment profiles of past sales and
the corresponding historical credit losses, and adjusts for qualitative and quantitative
reasonable and supportable forward-looking information. If the expectation is different from
the estimation, such difference will impact the carrying values of trade receivables and
contract assets. The carrying amounts of trade receivables and contract assets as at the
reporting date are disclosed in Notes 15 and 17 to the financial statements respectively.
The loss allowances for non-trade financial assets are based on assumptions about risk of
default (probability of default) and expected loss if a default happens (loss given default).
It also requires the Group to assess whether there is a significant increase in credit risk of
the non-trade financial asset at the reporting date. The Group uses judgement in making
these assumptions and selecting appropriate inputs to the impairment calculation, based
on the past payment trends, existing market conditions and forward-looking information.
The carrying amounts of other receivables and amounts owing by subsidiaries as at the
reporting date are disclosed in Notes 16 and 10 to the financial statements respectively.
The Group determines whether an item of its property and equipment and investment in
subsidiaries are impaired by evaluating the extent to which the recoverable amount of the
asset is less than its carrying amount. This evaluation is subject to changes such as market
performance, economic and political situation of the country. A variety of methods is used
to determine the recoverable amount, such as valuation reports and discounted cash flows.
For discounted cash flows, significant judgement is required in the estimation of the present
value of future cash flows generated by the assets, which involve uncertainties and are
significantly affected by assumptions used and judgements made regarding estimates of
future cash flows and discount rates. The carrying amounts of property and equipment and
investment in subsidiaries as at the reporting date are disclosed in Notes 9 and 7 to the
financial statements respectively.

Purchase prices related to business combinations are allocated to the underlying acquired
assets and liabilities based on their estimated fair value at the time of acquisition. The
determination of fair value required the Group to make assumptions, estimates and
judgements regarding future events. The allocation process is inherently subjective and
impacts the amount assigned to individually identifiable assets and liabilities. As a result,
the purchase price allocation impacts the Group’s reported assets (including goodwill) and
liabilities, future net earnings due to the impact on future depreciation and amortisation
expense and impairment tests. The fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed
under the business combinations made during the current financial year are disclosed in
Note 37 to the financial statements.
Management believes that there are no instances of application of critical judgement in applying
the Group’s accounting policies which will have a significant effect on the amounts recognised
in the financial statements other than as disclosed below:-
Lease Terms
Some leases contain extension options exercisable by the Group before the end of the non -
cancellable contract period. In determining the lease term, management considers all facts and
circumstances including the past practice and any cost that will be incurred to change the asset
if an option to extend is not taken. An extension option is only included in the lease term if the
lease is reasonably certain to be extended (or not terminated).
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its
subsidiaries made up to the end of the reporting period.
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. 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 over the entity. Potential voting rights are
considered when assessing control only when such rights are substantive. The Group also
considers it has de facto power over an investee when, despite not having the majority of voting
rights, it has the current ability to direct the activities of the investee that significantly affect the
investee’s return.

FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2023
Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group up to
the effective date on which control ceases, as appropriate.
Acquisitions of businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. Under the
acquisition method, the consideration transferred for acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair value
of the assets transferred, liabilities incurred and the equity interests issued by the Group at
the acquisition date. The consideration transferred includes the fair value of any asset or
liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. Acquisition-related costs, other
than the costs to issue debt or equity securities, are recognised in profit or loss when incurred.
In a business combination achieved in stages, previously held equity interests in the acquiree
are remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date and any corresponding gain or loss is
recognised in profit or loss.
Non-controlling interests in the acquiree may be initially measured either at fair value or at the
non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable net
assets at the date of acquisition. The choice of measurement basis is made on a transaction-
by-transaction basis.
Business combinations involving entities under common control are accounted for by
applying the pooling of interest method. The assets and liabilities of the combining entities
are reflected at their carrying amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements of
the controlling holding company. Any difference between the consideration paid and the
share capital of the “acquired” entity is reflected within equity as merger reserve. The
statement of comprehensive income reflects the results of the combining entities for the
full year, irrespective of when the combination takes place. Comparatives are presented
as if the entities have always been combined since the date the entities had come under
common control.

Non-controlling interests are presented within equity in the consolidated statement of financial
position, separately from the equity attributable to owners of the Company. Profit or loss and
each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the Company
and to the non-controlling interests. Total comprehensive income is attributed to non-
controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.
All changes in the parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of
control are accounted for as equity transactions. Any difference between the amount by
which the non-controlling interest is adjusted and the fair value of consideration paid or
received is recognised directly in equity of the Group.
Upon the loss of control of a subsidiary, the Group recognises any gain or loss on disposal in
profit or loss which is calculated as the difference between:-
(i) the aggregate of the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of any
retained interest in the former subsidiary; and
(ii) the previous carrying amount of the assets (including goodwill), and liabilities of the former
subsidiary and any non-controlling interests.

6.3 GOODWILL
Goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses, if any. The carrying value of
goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may be impaired. The impairment value of
goodwill is recognised immediately in profit or loss. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill
is not reversed in a subsequent period.
Under the acquisition method, any excess of the sum of the fair value of the consideration
transferred in the business combination, the amount of non-controlling interests recognised and
the fair value of the Group’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any), over the net
fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable assets and liabilities at the date of acquisition is recorded
as goodwill.
Where the latter amount exceeds the former, after reassessment, the excess represents a
bargain purchase gain and is recognised in profit or loss immediately.
The individual financial statements of each entity in the Group are presented in the
currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates, which is the
functional currency.
The consolidated financial statements are presented in Ringgit Malaysia (“RM”), which is
the Company’s functional and presentation currency.
Transactions in foreign currencies are converted on initial recognition, using the exchange
rates at the transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities at the end of the reporting period
are translated at the exchange rates ruling as of that date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities
are translated using exchange rates that existed when the values were determined. All
exchange differences are recognised in profit or loss.

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised in the statements of financial position
when the Group has become a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.
Financial instruments are classified as financial assets, financial liabilities or equity instruments
in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement and their definitions in MFRS
132. Interest, dividends, gains and losses relating to a financial instrument classified as a liability
are reported as an expense or income. Distributions to holders of financial instruments classified
as equity are charged directly to equity.
Financial instruments are offset when the Group has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends
to settle either on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
A financial instrument is recognised initially at its fair value (other than trade receivables without
significant financing component which are measured at transaction price as defined in MFRS
15 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers at inception). Transaction costs that are directly
attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial instrument (other than a financial
instrument at fair value through profit or loss) are added to/deducted from the fair value on initial
recognition, as appropriate. Transaction costs on the financial instrument at fair value through
profit or loss are recognised immediately in profit or loss.
Financial instruments recognised in the statements of financial position are disclosed in the
individual policy statement associated with each item.
All recognised financial assets are measured subsequently in their entirely at either
amortised cost or fair value (through profit or loss, or other comprehensive income),
depending on the classification of the financial assets.

Debt Instruments
The financial asset is held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash
flows represent solely payments of principal and interest. Interest income is
recognised by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of the
financial asset. When the asset has subsequently become credit-impaired, the interest
income is recognised by applying the effective interest rate to the amortised cost of
the financial asset.
The financial asset is held for both collecting contractual cash flows and selling the
financial asset, where the asset’s cash flows represent solely payments of principal
and interest. Movements in the carrying amount are taken through other
comprehensive income and accumulated in the fair value reserve, except for the
recognition of impairment, interest income and foreign exchange difference which are
recognised directly in profit or loss. Interest income is calculated using the effective
interest rate method.
All other financial assets that do not meet the criteria for amortised cost or fair value
through other comprehensive income are measured at fair value through profit or loss.
The Group reclassifies debt instruments when and only when its business model for
managing those assets change.

Equity Instruments
All equity investments are subsequently measured at fair value with gains and losses
recognised in profit or loss except where the Group has elected to present the subsequent
changes in fair value in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the fair value
reserve at initial recognition.
The designation at fair value through other comprehensive income is not permitted if the
equity investment is either held for trading or is designated to eliminate or significantly
reduce a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would otherwise arise.
Dividend income from this category of financial assets is recognised in profit or loss when
the Group’s right to receive payment is established unless the dividends clearly represent
a recovery of part of the cost of the equity investments.
Fair value through profit or loss category comprises financial liabilities that are either
held for trading or are designated to eliminate or significantly reduce a measurement
or recognition inconsistency that would otherwise arise. The changes in fair value of
these financial liabilities are recognised in profit or loss.
Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the

Equity instruments classified as equity are measured initially at cost and are not
remeasured subsequently.
Ordinary shares are classified as equity and recorded at the proceeds received, net
of directly attributable transaction costs.
When the Company’s own shares recognised as equity are bought back, the amount
of the consideration paid, including all costs directly attributable, are recognised as a
deduction from equity. Own shares purchased that are not subsequently cancelled
are classified as treasury shares and are presented as a deduction from total equity.
No gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss on the purchase, sale, issue or
cancellation of treasury shares.
Where treasury shares are reissued by resale, the difference between the sales
consideration received and the carrying amount of the treasury shares is recognised
in equity.
Where treasury shares are cancelled, their costs are transferred to retained profits.

(d) Derecognition
A financial asset or part of it is derecognised when, and only when, the contractual rights
to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or when it transfers the financial asset and
substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another entity. On
derecognition of a financial asset measured at amortised cost, the difference between the
carrying amount of the asset and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is
recognised in profit or loss. In addition, on derecognition of a debt instrument classified as
fair value through other comprehensive income, the cumulative gain or loss previously
accumulated in the fair value reserve is reclassified from equity to profit or loss. In contrast,
there is no subsequent reclassification of the fair value reserve to profit or loss following the
derecognition of an equity investment.
A financial liability or a part of it is derecognised when, and only when, the obligation
specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires. On derecognition of a
financial liability, the difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability
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.
Derivative financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a
derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured at fair value.
Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial
liabilities when the fair value is negative. Any gains or losses arising from changes in fair
value on derivatives during the reporting period, other than those accounted for under
hedge accounting, are recognised directly in profit or loss.
Any derivative embedded in a financial asset is not accounted for separately. Instead, the
entire hybrid contract is classified and subsequently measured as either amortised cost or
fair value as appropriate.
An embedded derivative is recognised separately from the host contract which is a financial
liability as a derivative if, and only if, its risks and characteristics are not closely related to
those of the host contract and the host contract is not measured at fair value through profit
or loss.

A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer to make specified
payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to
make payment when due in accordance with the original or modified terms of a debt
instrument.
Financial guarantee contracts are recognised initially as liabilities at fair value, net of
transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, financial guarantee contracts are
recognised as income in profit or loss over the period of the guarantee or, when there is no
specific contractual period, recognised in profit or loss upon discharge of the guarantee. If
the debtor fails to make payment relating to a financial guarantee contract when it is due
and the Company or the Group, as the issuer, is required to reimburse the holder for the
associated loss, the liability is measured at the higher of the amount of the credit loss
determined in accordance with the expected credit loss model and the amount initially
recognised less cumulative amortisation.
Investment in subsidiaries are stated at cost in the statement of financial position of the
Company, and are reviewed for impairment at the end of the reporting period if events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying values may not be recoverable. The cost of
the investments includes transaction costs.
On the disposal of the investments in subsidiaries, the difference between the net disposal
proceeds and the carrying amount of the investments is recognised in profit or loss.

An associate is an entity in which the Group and the Company has a long-term equity interest
and where it exercises significant influence over the financial and operating policies.
Investments in associates are stated at cost in the statement of financial position of the
Company, and are reviewed for impairment at the end of the reporting period if events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying values may not be recoverable. The cost of
the investment includes transaction costs.
The investment in an associate is accounted for in the consolidated financial statements using
the equity method based on the financial statements of the associate made up to 30 June 2023.
The Group's share of the post acquisition profits and other comprehensive income of the
associate is included in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive
income, after adjustment if any, to align the accounting policies with those of the Group, from
the date that significant influence commences up to the effective date on which significant
influence ceases or when the investment is classified as held for sale. The Group's investment
in the associate is carried in the consolidated statement of financial position at cost plus the
Group’s share of the post acquisition retained profits and reserves. The cost of investment
includes transaction costs.
When the Group’s share of losses exceeds its interest in an associate, the carrying amount of
that interest is reduced to zero, and the recognition of further losses is discontinued except to
the extent that the Group has an obligation. The interest in the associate is the carrying amount
of the investment in the associate determined using the equity method together with any long-
term interests that, in substance, form part of the Group’s net investment in the associate.
Unrealised gains or losses on transactions between the Group and the associate are eliminated
to the extent of the Group's interest in the associate. Unrealised losses are eliminated unless
cost cannot be recovered.
When the Group ceases to have significant influence over an associate and the retained interest
in the former associate is a financial asset, the Group measures the retained interest at fair
value at that date and the fair value is regarded as the initial carrying amount of the financial
asset in accordance with MFRS 9. Furthermore, the Group also reclassifies its share of the gain
or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income of that associate to profit or loss
when the equity method is discontinued.
All items of property and equipment are initially measured at cost. Cost includes expenditure
that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset and other costs directly attributable
to bringing the asset to working condition for its intended use.

Subsequent to initial recognition, property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated
depreciation and any impairment losses.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset,
as appropriate, only when the cost is incurred and it is probable that the future economic benefits
associated with the asset will flow to the Group and the cost of the asset can be measured
reliably. The carrying amount of parts that are replaced is derecognised. The cost of the day-
to-day servicing of property and equipment are recognised in profit or loss as incurred.
Depreciation on property and equipment is charged to profit or loss (unless it is included in the
carrying amount of another asset) on a straight-line method to write off the depreciable amount
of the assets over their estimated useful lives. Depreciation of an asset does not cease when
the asset becomes idle or is retired from active use unless the asset is fully depreciated. The
principal annual rates used for this purpose are:-
Capital work-in-progress included in property and equipment are not depreciated as these assets
are not yet available for use.
The depreciation method, useful lives and residual values are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate,
at the end of each reporting period to ensure that the amounts, method and periods of depreciation
are consistent with previous estimates and the expected pattern of consumption of the future
economic benefits embodied in the items of the property and equipment. Any changes are
accounted for as a change in estimate.
When significant parts of an item of property and equipment have different useful lives, they are
accounted for as separate items (major components) of property and equipment.
An item of property and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic
benefits are expected from its use. Any gain or loss arising from derecognition of the asset, being
the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount, is recognised in
profit or loss.

6.9 LEASES
The Group assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease, at the inception of the contract. The
Group recognises a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability with respect to all lease
arrangements in which it is the lessee, except for low-value assets and short-term leases with 12
months or less. For these leases, the Group recognises the lease payments as an operating
expense on a straight-line method over the term of the lease unless another systematic basis is
more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased assets are
consumed.
The Group recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date.
The right-of-use assets and the associated lease liabilities are presented as a separate line item in
the statement of financial position.
The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost. Cost includes the initial amount of the
corresponding lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the
commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred, less any incentives received.
The right-of-use asset is subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any
impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liability. The depreciation
starts from the commencement date of the lease. If the lease transfers ownership of the underlying
asset to the Group or the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the Group expects to exercise
a purchase option, the related right-of-use asset is depreciated over the useful life of the underlying
asset. Otherwise, the Group depreciates the right-of-use asset to the earlier of the end of the useful
life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term. The estimated useful lives of the right-of-
use assets are as follows:
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid
at the commencement date, discounted by using the rate implicit in the lease. If this rate cannot be
readily determined, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate.
The lease liability is subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
It is remeasured when there is a change in the future lease payments (other than lease modification
that is not accounted for as a separate lease) with the corresponding adjustment is made to the
carrying amount of the right-of-use asset or is recognised in profit or loss if the carrying amount has
been reduced to zero.

6.10 INVENTORIES
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined on the first-
in, first-out method and comprises the purchase price and incidentals incurred in bringing the
inventories to their present location and condition. The cost of finished goods and work-in-progress
comprise cost of raw materials, direct labour, other direct costs and appropriate proportions of
manufacturing overheads based on the normal operating capacity.
Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price less the estimated costs of completion
and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
The Group recognises incremental costs of obtaining contracts with customers as an asset
when the Group expects to recover these costs. When the amortisation period of the asset is
one year or less, such costs are recognised as an expense immediately when incurred.
The Group recognises costs that relate directly to a contract (or an anticipated contract) with
customer as an asset when the costs generate or enhance resources of the Group, will be
used in satisfying performance obligation in the future and are recovered.
The contract cost assets are initially measured at cost and amortised on a systematic basis that is
consistent with the pattern of revenue recognition to which the asset relates.
An impairment loss is recognised in the profit or loss when the carrying amount of the contract cost
assets exceeds the expected revenue less expected cost that will be incurred. Any impairment loss
recovered shall be reversed to the extent of the carrying amount of the contract cost assets does
not exceed the amount that would have been recognised had there been no impairment loss
recognised previously.
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash in hand, bank balances, demand deposits, and short-
term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which
are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value with original maturity periods of three months
or less. For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents are presented

A contract liability is stated at cost and represents the obligation of the Group to transfer goods
or services to a customer for which consideration has been received (or the amount is due) from
the customers.
6.14 PROVISIONS
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a
result of past events, when it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic
benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and when a reliable estimate of the amount can
be made. Provisions are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and adjusted to reflect
the current best estimate. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision
is the present value of the estimated expenditure required to settle the obligation. The discount
rate shall be a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money
and the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as interest
expense in profit or loss.
6.15 IMPAIRMENT
The Group recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on investments in debt
instruments that are measured at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive
income, trade receivables and contract assets, as well as on financial guarantee contracts.
The expected credit loss is estimated as the difference between all contractual cash flows that
are due to the Group in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Group
expects to receive, discounted at the original effective interest rate.
The amount of expected credit losses is updated at each reporting date to reflect changes in
credit risk since initial recognition of the respective financial instrument. The Group always
recognises lifetime expected credit losses for trade receivables and contract assets using the
simplified approach. The expected credit losses on these financial assets are estimated using
a provision matrix based on the Group’s historical credit loss experience and are adjusted for
forward-looking information (including time value of money where appropriate).

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2023
For all other financial instruments, the Group recognises lifetime expected credit losses when
there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. However, if the
credit risk on the financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognition,
the Group measures the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equal to 12
‑month expected credit losses.
The Group recognises an impairment gain or loss in profit or loss for all financial instruments
with a corresponding adjustment to their carrying amount through a loss allowance account,
except for investments in debt instruments that are measured at fair value through other
comprehensive income, for which the loss allowance is recognised in other comprehensive
income and accumulated in the fair value reserve, and does not reduce the carrying amount
of the financial asset in the statement of financial position.
The carrying values of assets, other than those to which MFRS 136 - Impairment of Assets
does not apply, are reviewed at the end of each reporting period for impairment when there
is an indication that the assets might be impaired. Impairment is measured by comparing
the carrying values of the assets with their recoverable amounts. When the carrying
amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is written down to its
recoverable amount and an impairment loss shall be recognised. The recoverable amount
of an asset is the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and its value in use,
which is measured by reference to discounted future cash flows using a pre-tax discount
rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks
specific to the asset. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an
individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit
to which the asset belongs.
An impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately. Any impairment loss recognised
in respect of a cash-generating unit is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any
goodwill allocated to the cash-generating unit and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the
other assets in the cash-generating unit on a pro rata basis.

depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognised. The reversal is recognised in profit or
loss immediately unless the asset is carried at its revalued amount, in which case the reversal
of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.
Wages, salaries, paid annual leave and bonuses are measured on an undiscounted basis and
are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which the associated services are rendered by
employees of the Group.
The Group’s contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised in profit or loss in the
period to which they relate. Once the contributions have been paid, the Group has no further
liability in respect of the defined contribution plans.
Current tax assets and liabilities are expected amount of income tax recoverable or payable
to the taxation authorities.
Current taxes are measured using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or
substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period and are recognised in profit or loss
except to the extent that the tax relates to items recognised outside profit or loss (either in
other comprehensive income or directly in equity).

Deferred tax are recognised using the liability method for all temporary differences other than
those that arise from goodwill or from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a
transaction which is not a business combination and at the time of the transaction, affects
neither accounting profit nor taxable profit.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in
the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on the tax rates that have
been enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses
and unused tax credits to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be
available against which the deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and unused
tax credits can be utilised. The carrying amounts of deferred tax assets are reviewed at the
end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that related
tax benefits will be realised.
Current and deferred tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transactions either
in profit or loss, other comprehensive income or directly in equity. Deferred tax arising from a
business combination is adjusted against goodwill or negative goodwill.
Current tax assets and liabilities or deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a
legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when the
deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity (or on different tax entities but they intend to settle
current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis) and the same taxation authority.
Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a
qualifying asset are capitalised as part of the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets
are ready for their intended use or sale. The capitalisation of borrowing costs is suspended
during extended periods in which active development is interrupted. The capitalisation rate used
to determine the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation is the weighted average of
the borrowing costs applicable to borrowings that are outstanding during the financial year, other
than borrowings made specifically for the purpose of financing a specific project-in-progress, in
which case the actual borrowing costs incurred on that borrowings less any investment income
on temporary investment of that borrowings will be capitalised.
All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss as expenses in the period in which they
are incurred.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an
orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, regardless of whether
that price is directly observable or estimated using a valuation technique. In estimating the fair value
of an asset or a liability, the Group take into account the characteristics of the asset or liability if
market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability
at the measurement date. The measurement assumes that the transaction takes place either in the
principal market or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market. For
non-financial asset, the fair value measurement takes into account a market participant’s ability to
generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another
market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.
For financial reporting purposes, the fair value measurements are analysed into level 1 to level 3
as follows:-
Level 1: Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liability that
the entity can access at the measurement date;
Level 2: Inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within level 1, that are observable for
the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3: Inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
The transfer of fair value between levels is determined as of the date of the event or change in
circumstances that caused the transfer.
The fair value for measurement and disclosure purposes in these financial statements is
determined on such a basis, except for share-based payment transactions (MFRS 2), leasing
transactions (MFRS 16) and measurement that have some similarities to fair value but not are fair
value, such as net realisable value (MFRS 102) or value in use (MFRS 136).

Non-current assets (or disposal group comprising assets and liabilities) that are expected to be
recovered primarily through sale rather than through continuing use are classified as held for
sale. Immediately before classification as held for sale, the non-current assets (or the disposal
group) are remeasured in accordance with the Group’s accounting policies. Upon classification
as held for sale, the non-current assets (or non-current assets of the disposal group) are not
depreciated and are measured at the lower of their previous carrying amount and fair value less
cost to sell. Any differences are recognised in profit or loss. In addition, equity accounting of
equity-accounted associates and joint ventures ceases once classified as held for sale or
distribution.
A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events and whose existence will
only be confirmed by the occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the
control of the Group. It can also be a present obligation arising from past events that is not
recognised because it is not probable that an outflow of economic resources will be required or the
amount of obligation cannot be measured reliably.
A contingent liability is not recognised but is disclosed in the notes to the financial statements,
unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote. When a change in the probability
of an outflow occurs so that the outflow is probable, it will then be recognised as a provision.
An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from
which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate
to transactions with any of the Group’s other components. An operating segment’s operating
results are reviewed regularly by the chief operating decision maker to make decisions about
resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and for which discrete
financial information is available.

Basic earnings per ordinary share is calculated by dividing the consolidated profit or loss
attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of
ordinary shares outstanding during the reporting period, adjusted for own shares held.
Diluted earnings per ordinary share is determined by adjusting the consolidated profit or loss
attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company and the weighted average number of
ordinary shares outstanding, adjusted for own shares held, for the effects of all dilutive potential
ordinary shares, which comprise convertible preference shares and share options granted to
employees.
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised by reference to each distinct performance
obligation in the contract with customer. 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 sales and service
tax, returns, rebates and discounts.
The Group recognises revenue when (or as) it transfers control over a product or service to
customer. An asset is transferred when (or as) the customer obtains control of that asset.
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. The Group transfers control
of a good or service at a point in time unless one of the following overtime criteria is met:-
• The customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided as the Group
performs.
• The Group’s performance creates or enhances an asset that the customer controls as the
asset is created or enhanced.
• The Group’s performance does not create an asset with an alternative use and the Group
has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.

Revenue from construction services is recognised over time in the period in which the
services are rendered using the input method, determined based the proportion of
construction costs incurred for work performed to date over the estimated total construction
costs. Transaction price is computed based on the price specified in the contract and
adjusted for any variable consideration such as incentives and penalties. Past experience
is used to estimate and provide for the variable consideration, using expected value
method and revenue is only recognised to the extent that it is highly probable that a
significant reversal will not occur.
A receivable is recognised when the construction services are rendered as this is the point
in time that the consideration is unconditional because only the passage of time is required
before the payment is due. If the construction services rendered exceed the payment
received, a contract asset is recognised. If the payments exceed the construction services
rendered, a contract liability is recognised.
(b) Revenue from freight and lighterage services – sea and land transport
Freight services for sea and land transport are recognised over time in the period the freight
services are rendered. The customer is able to benefit from the Group's performance as it
occurs and the other entity would not need to substantially reperform the Group's
performance (e.g. distance travelled) to date. The Group has selected the output measure
(days travelled) which can most appropriately depicts the transfer of control of the service
to the customer.
These revenues comprise mainly agency commission, custom clearance, import and
export documentation, port related services and etc. These services are considered to
represent one single performance obligation satisfied at a point in time.
(d) Ship repairs, repairs works, metal fabrication and barrage maintenance fee
Revenue from ship repair, repair works, metal fabrication and barrage maintenance fee is
recognised over time in the period in which the services are rendered. For fixed-price
contracts, revenue is recognised based on the actual service provided to the end of the
reporting period as a proportion of the total services to be provided because the customer
receives and uses the benefits simultaneously.

Registration No: 200401027554 (666062 – A)
Revenue from sale of goods and services is recognised at the point in time when control
of the assets is transferred to the customers, generally on delivery of the goods and
services.
Dividend income from investment is recognised when the right to receive dividend payment
is established.
Rental income from investment properties is accounted for on a straight-line method over
the lease term.
The Group enters as a lessor into lease agreements that fall within the scope of MFRS 16.
Rental income arising from operating leases is accounted for on a straight-line basis over
the lease term and is included in revenue in the statement of profit or loss due to its
operating nature.

The Group’s activities are exposed to a variety of market risk (including foreign currency risk and
interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s overall financial risk management policy
focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects
on the Group’s financial performance.
Financial risk management policies are periodically reviewed and approved by the Board of
Directors and executed by the management. The audit committee of Shin Yang Shipping
Corporation Berhad provides independent oversight to the effectiveness of the risk
management process.
The Group's policies in respect of the major areas of treasury activity are as follows:-
The Group is exposed to foreign currency risk on transactions and balances that
are denominated in currencies other than the respective functional currencies of
entities within the Group. The currencies giving rise to this risk are primarily United
States Dollar (“USD”), United Arab Emirates Dirham (AED), Renminbi Yuan (RMB),
Japanese Yen (JPY), Brunei Dollar (BND) and Singapore Dollar (“SGD”). Foreign
currency risk is monitored closely on an ongoing basis to ensure that the net
exposure is at an acceptable level. On occasion, the Group enters into forward
foreign currency contracts to hedge against its foreign currency risk. The Group
also holds cash and cash equivalents denominated in foreign currencies for
working capital purposes.

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial
instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Group’s
exposure to interest rate risk arises mainly from long-term borrowings with variable
rates. The Group’s policy is to obtain the most favourable interest rates available
and by maintaining a balanced portfolio mix of fixed and floating rate borrowings.
The Group’s fixed rate receivables and borrowings are carried at amortised cost.
Therefore, they are not subject to interest rate risk as in defined MFRS 7 since
neither carrying amounts nor the future cash flows will fluctuate because of a
change in market interest rates.
The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk based on the carrying amounts of the
financial instruments at the end of the reporting period is disclosed in Note 24 to
the financial statements.
The following table details the sensitivity analysis to a reasonably possible change
in the interest rates at the end of the reporting period, with all other variables held

The Group's exposure to credit risk, or the risk of counterparties defaulting, arises
mainly from trade and other receivables. The Group manages its exposure to credit risk
by the application of credit approvals, credit limits and monitoring procedures on an
ongoing basis. For other financial assets (including cash and bank balances), the Group
minimises credit risk by dealing exclusively with high credit rating counterparties.
The Company’s exposure to credit risk arises principally from loans and advances to
subsidiaries, and corporate guarantee given to financial institutions for credit facilities
granted to certain subsidiaries. The Company monitors the results of these subsidiaries
regularly and repayments made by the subsidiaries.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Group determines concentration of credit risk by monitoring the trade and
other receivables on an ongoing basis.
At the end of the reporting period, the maximum exposure to credit risk is
represented by the carrying amount of each class of financial assets recognised
in the statements of financial position of the Group and of the Company after
deducting any allowance for impairment losses (where applicable).
At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether any of the financial assets at
amortised cost, contract assets are credit impaired.
The gross carrying amounts of financial assets are written off when there is no
reasonable expectation of recovery (i.e. the debtor does not have assets or
sources of income to generate sufficient cash flows to repay the debt) despite the
fact that they are still subject to enforcement activities.
The Group applies the simplified approach to measure expected credit losses
using a lifetime expected credit loss allowance for all trade receivables and
contract assets.
To measure the expected credit losses, trade receivables including related parties
and contract assets have been grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics
and the days past due. The contract assets relate to unbilled work in progress and
have substantially the same risk characteristics as the trade receivables for the
same types of contracts. Therefore, the Group concluded that the expected loss
rates for trade receivables are a reasonable approximation of the loss rates for the
contract assets.

Fixed and Treasury Deposits with Licensed Banks, Cash and Bank Balances
The Group considers these banks and financial institutions have low credit risks.
In addition, some of the bank balances are insured by Government agencies.
Therefore, the Group is of the view that the loss allowance is immaterial and hence,
it is not provided for.
All of the financial guarantee contracts are considered to be performing, have low
risks of default and historically there were no instances where these financial
guarantee contracts were called upon by the parties of which the financial
guarantee contracts were issued to. Accordingly, no loss allowances were
identified based on 12-month expected credit losses.

availability of funding through certain committed credit facilities.
