2.3 Investment strategies and policies employed during the fi nancial year under review

The Fund’s main strategy involved investing in a dynamic mix of value and growth large cap stocks with reasonable valuation and consistent dividend payment.

Asset 30 Sept 15 30 Sept 14 Quoted investment securities 86.5% 93.2% Short term deposits and cash 13.5% 6.8%

Reason for the differences in asset allocation

As at end 30 September 2015, the Fund’s equity exposure was 86.5%. The lower equities exposure for the fi nancial year under review was due to the defensive stance taken by the fund manager.

Source: Novagni Analytics and Advisory Sdn Bhd

The Fund registered a return of -11.33%, outperforming the benchmark FTSE Bursa Malaysia 100 Index return of -12.67%. The Fund’s outperformance compared to the benchmark was mainly attributed to its stock selection and asset allocation.

2.6 Review of the market

Market Review

The FBM KLCI Index experienced a fi erce sell-off in the fourth quarter of 2014, falling almost 10% in a short span of 10 weeks to the year low of 1673.94 points as of 16 December 2014 before ending 2014 at the higher level of 1761.25 points. The sell-off was sparked by oil price drop which plunged nearly 40% to US$57.3 per barrel in the fourth quarter of 2014. As a result of falling oil price, foreign investors turned bearish on Malaysia whose economy relies heavily on the oil & gas sector. The outfl ow from both equity and the bond markets dragged the Ringgit down to RM3.50/US$ by end 2014 from RM3.28/US$ by end September 2014.

The local market however rebounded in the fi rst quarter of 2015, driven by bargain hunting activities which coincided with the stabilising oil price. Meanwhile, global markets were boosted by a larger than expected QE programme by the European Central Bank. The FBM KLCI Index continued its rally into April 2015 to reach the year high of 1862.8 points on 21 April 2015. Thereafter, market started its downhill slide on a confl uence of negative factors. The initial concern was a potential downgrade of Malaysia’s sovereign credit rating by Fitch Rating. Fitch had earlier downgraded Malaysia’s outlook to “Negative” in July 2013. This was further exacerbated by: a) the allegations relating to a strategic development company wholly-owned by the Ministry of Finance; b) the weak corporate results report for fi rst quarter of 2015; and c) drag from Tenaga (which is an index heavyweight) share price correction on concerns that it might overpay for Edra Energy’s power assets. Contrasting the weak economic and market performance of ASEAN from April to June 2015, China and Hong Kong markets appreciated sharply on increased retail participation and high hopes for the state owned enterprises reforms. As a result, global investors rotated out from the underperforming ASEAN markets into the China and Hong Kong markets.

Global markets were later rattled by Greece by end June 2015 as the country shut its banking system for 6 days and imposed capital controls to stem fund outfl ows. In an unexpected move, Fitch announced on 30 June 2015 that it had affi rmed Malaysia’s sovereign credit rating at “A-” while the outlook was upgraded to “Stable” from “Negative” on the back of the country’s improving fi scal position from GST implementation and fuel subsidy reforms. Unfortunately the surprise upgrade did not provide any cheer to the market which continued to drop along with the weakening Ringgit.

2.6 Review of the market (Contd.)

Market Review (Contd.)

In the domestic front, the cabinet reshuffl ing by end July 2015 raised worries on political uncertainties. Malaysia’s foreign reserve also fell to a low of US$94.5 billion in mid-August mainly attributed to capital outfl ows and possible Bank Negara’s intervention in the forex market to defend Ringgit. Not helping was another set of poor corporate earnings for the second quarter, with about 50% companies reporting results below expectation and only 10% surprising on the upside, bringing the weakest hit/miss earnings ratio in the last 16 quarters. In the global front, China shocked the world in its sudden move of devaluing RMB by 2% in August 2015. This is the fi rst devaluation since 1994 and the largest RMB devaluation in two decades. The devaluation sparked concerns of a decelerating Chinese economy and potential competitive currency devaluation amongst emerging countries to fi ght for exports. Oil price dipped to the year low of US$42.7 per barrel in August 2015 on global growth concerns while the Ringgit weakened to RM4.19/US$ by end August 2015. Both domestic and global markets fell sharply in August before chalking some recovery towards end September. Market sentiment also improved in September 2015 after the Federal Reserve’s decision to keep interest rate unchanged. The FBM KLCI Index fell to the year low of 1532.14 points on 24 August 2015 but rebounded to close 30 September 2015 at 1621.04 points.

The cumulative net foreign selling in the domestic equities reached RM17.7 billion for the fi rst nine months of 2015, way above RM6.9 billion total net selling in 2014. Foreign shareholdings have therefore declined to 22.3% as of end September 2015 from 23.8% as of end 2014.

Market Outlook We believe near term market is likely to stay range-bound given the lack of catalysts

and muted corporate earnings growth. External headwinds including a potential interest rate hike by the Federal Reserve, slowdown in China and weak commodities prices will continue to weigh on the Ringgit and the local equity market. Locally consumer sentiment and retail sales are weak post implementation of GST.

Despite the external challenges, the government remains steadfast on the path of fi scal consolidation. Government’s 2016 revenue shortfall from the oil & gas sector will be offset by GST collection which was better-than-expected. Other positives to expect in 2016 include roll out of more infrastructure projects, increased BR1M hand-outs and construction of more affordable and PR1MA housings.

In view of the abovementioned headwinds, market upside is likely to be capped. However the upcoming RM20b injection into ValueCap in a few tranches will cushion further downside for the market. Balancing the headwinds and the domestic pump-priming efforts by the government to support consumption and growth suggest a range-bound market in the foreseeable future.

2.6 Review of the market (Contd.)

Strategy

Our fund strategy remains to be defensively positioned but active in good stock picking as it is key to outperformance. We continue to adopt a barbell strategy of holding a good balance of defensive/dividend stocks and beta/cyclical stocks. Sector and stock selection wise, we like construction sector which is a benefi ciary of infrastructure projects roll-out, utility sector with defensive earnings and dividend yield and selective companies with export or US dollar earnings. We will look to increase equity exposure on sharp market weakness.

2.7 Income Distribution

For the fi nancial year under review, the Fund did not declare any distribution.

2.8 Details of any unit split exercise The Fund did not carry out any unit split exercise during the fi nancial year under review. 2.9 Signifi cant changes in the state of affair of the Fund during the fi nancial year There were no signifi cant changes in the state of affair of the Fund during the fi nancial

year and up until the date of the manager’s report, not otherwise disclosed in the fi nancial statements.

2.10 Circumstances that materially affect any interests of the unitholders During the fi nancial year under review, there were no circumstances that materially

affected any interests of the unitholders. 2.11 Rebates & Soft commissions Any rebates received are channeled back to the Fund. On the other hand, soft

commissions received from the stockbrokers for goods and services such as technical analysis software, fundamental database, fi nancial wire services, stock quotation system and portfolio management software incidental to investment management of the Fund shall be retained by the Manager. For the fi nancial year under review, the Manager has received soft commissions from stockbrokers.

3.2 Performance details of the Fund for the last 3 fi nancial years ended 30 September are as follows:

FY FY FY 2015 2014 2013

Net asset value (“NAV”) (RM Million) 17.31* 21.16 23.07 Units in circulation (Million) 26.74 28.98 33.83 NAV per unit (RM) 0.6473* 0.7300 0.6819 Highest NAV per unit (RM) 0.7354 0.7352 0.6946 Lowest NAV per unit (RM) 0.6156 0.6784 0.5913 Total return (%) -11.33 7.05 12.67 - Capital growth (%) -11.33 7.05 12.67 - Income growth (%) - - - Gross distribution per unit (sen) - - - Net distribution per unit (sen) - - - Management expense ratio (“MER”) (%) 1 1.85 1.84 1.80 Portfolio turnover ratio (“PTR”) (times) 2 0.20 0.31 3.84

Note: Total return is the actual return of the Fund for the respective fi nancial years, computed based on NAV per unit and net of all fees.

MER is computed based on the total fees and expenses incurred by the Fund divided by the average fund size calculated on a daily basis. PTR is computed based on the average of the total acquisitions and total disposals of investment securities of the Fund divided by the average fund size calculated on a daily basis.

Above NAV and NAV per unit are not shown as ex-distribution as there were no distribution declared by the Fund in the current fi nancial year under review.

1 MER is slightly higher against previous fi nancial year mainly due to decrease in

the average fund size during the fi nancial year under review.

2 PTR is lower against previous fi nancial year mainly due to lower trading activities and a lower equity exposure due to defensive positioning.

* Based on bid price fair valuation method on all investments held by the Fund as at 30 September 2015, the NAV and NAV per unit would be RM17.26 million and RM0.6450 respectively.

7.5 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2015

1. THE FUND, THE MANAGER AND THEIR PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

Kenanga Blue Chip Fund (the “Fund”) was constituted pursuant to the executed Deed dated 16 April 2004 (collectively, together with deeds supplemental thereto, referred to as “the Deed”) between the Manager, Kenanga Funds Berhad, and CIMB Commerce Trustee Berhad (“the Trustee”). The Fund commenced operations on 23 April 2004 and will continue to be in operation until terminated by the Trustee as provided under Clause 38 of the Deed.

Pursuant to the executed Seventh Supplemental Deed dated 15 May 2013 between Kenanga Investors Berhad and CIMB Commerce Trustee Berhad, Kenanga Investors Berhad was appointed as the Manager of the Fund with effect from 8 June 2013.

Kenanga Investors Berhad is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kenanga Investment Bank Berhad, which in turn is a wholly-owned subsidiary of K & N Kenanga Holdings Berhad that is listed on the Main Board of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad. All of these companies are incorporated in Malaysia.

The principal place of business of the Manager is Suite 12.02, 12th Floor, Kenanga International, Jalan Sultan Ismail, 50250 Kuala Lumpur.

The Fund seeks to provide unitholders with long term capital growth through investments in companies that have relatively larger market capitalisation. Such companies are characterised by large-scale operations, strong fi nancial and business track records and are leaders in their respective fi elds that generally referred to as “blue chip” companies.

The fi nancial statements were authorised for issue by the Chief Executive Offi cer of the Manager on 23 November 2015.

2. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES

The Fund is exposed to a variety of risks including market risk (which includes interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. Whilst these are the most important types of fi nancial risks inherent in each type of fi nancial instruments, the Manager and the Trustee would like to highlight that this list does not purport to constitute an exhaustive list of all the risks inherent in the Fund.

The Fund has an approved set of investment guidelines and policies as well as internal controls which sets out its overall business strategies to manage these risks to optimise returns and preserve capital for the unitholders, consistent with the long term objectives of the Fund.

2. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (CONTD.) a. Market Risk Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash fl ows of a fi nancial asset

at FVTPL will fl uctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk includes interest rate risk and price risk.

Market risk arises when the value of the investments fl uctuate in response to the activities of individual companies, general market or economic conditions. It stems from the fact that there are economy-wide perils, which threaten all businesses. Hence, investors are exposed to market uncertainties. Fluctuation in the investments’ prices caused by uncertainties in the economic, political and social environment will affect the NAV of the Fund.

The Manager manages the risk of unfavourable changes in prices by cautious review of the investments and continuous monitoring of their performance and risk profi les.

i. Interest rate risk

The risk refers to how the changes in the interest rate environment would affect the performance of the Fund’s investments. Rates offered by the fi nancial institutions will fl uctuate according to the Overnight Policy Rate determined by Bank Negara Malaysia and this has direct correlation with the Fund’s investments in deposits.

The Fund is not exposed to signifi cant interest rate risk as its deposits are short term in nature and have fi xed interest rates.

Interest rate risk exposure

The following table analyses the Fund’s interest rate risk exposure. The Fund’s assets and liabilities are disclosed at fair value and categorised by the earlier of contractual re-pricing or maturity dates.

2. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (CONTD.) a. Market Risk (Contd.) ii. Price risk

Price risk is the risk of unfavorable changes in the fair values of quoted equity securities and quoted collective investment schemes. The Fund invests in quoted equity securities and quoted collective investment schemes which are exposed to price fl uctuations. This may then affect the NAV per unit of the Fund.

Price risk sensitivity

The Manager’s best estimate of the effect on the profi t for the fi nancial year due to a reasonably possible change in investments in quoted equity securities and quoted collective investment schemes with all other variables held constant is indicated in the table below:

Effect on profi t Changes in price for the year Increase/(Decrease) Increase/(Decrease) Basic Point RM

2015 Financial assets at FVTPL 5/(5) 7,311/(7,311) 2014 Financial assets at FVTPL 5/(5) 9,796/(9,796)

In practice, the actual trading results may differ from the sensitivity analysis above and the difference could be material.

Price risk concentration

The following table sets out the Fund’s exposure and concentration to price risk based on its portfolio of fi nancial instruments as at the reporting date.

Fair value Percentage of NAV 2015 2014 2015 2014 RM RM % %

Price risk concentration (Contd.)

The Fund’s concentration of investment security price risk from the Fund’s quoted equity securities and quoted collective investment schemes analysed by sector is as follows:

Fair value Percentage of NAV 2015 2014 2015 2014 RM RM % %

Trading/Services 5,286,231 7,917,792 30.6 37.5 Finance 3,784,660 5,045,608 22.0 23.9 Constructions 1,383,568 637,806 8.0 3.0 Consumer products 1,058,432 1,495,668 6.1 7.1 Infrastructure 914,210 1,085,656 5.3 5.1 Plantations 789,215 745,090 4.6 3.5 Properties 770,726 1,917,583 4.5 9.1 Industrial products 285,310 522,000 1.7 2.5 REITs 348,662 224,792 2.0 1.1 14,621,014 19,591,995 84.8 92.8

b. Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk that the counterparty to a fi nancial instrument will cause a fi nancial loss to the Fund by failing to discharge an obligation. The Manager manages the credit risk by undertaking credit evaluation to minimise such risk.

i. Credit risk exposure

As at the reporting date, the Fund’s maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of each class of fi nancial asset recognised in the statement of fi nancial position.

ii. Financial assets that are either past due or impaired

As at the reporting date, there are no fi nancial assets that are either past due or impaired.

iii. Credit quality of fi nancial assets

The Fund invests in deposits with licensed fi nancial institutions under Financial Services Act 2013 and Islamic Financial Services Act 2013. The following table analyses the licensed fi nancial institutions by rating category:

Short term deposits

Percentage of total short term deposits Percentage of NAV 2015 2014 2015 2014 Rating % % % %

P1 100.0 100.0 3.3 6.7

c. Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is defi ned as the risk that the Fund will encounter diffi culty in meeting obligations associated with fi nancial liabilities that are to be settled by delivering cash or another fi nancial asset. Exposure to liquidity risk arises because of the possibility that the Fund could be required to pay its liabilities or cancel its units earlier than expected. The Fund is exposed to cancellation of its units on a regular basis. Units sold to unitholders by the Manager are cancellable at the unitholder’s option based on the Fund’s NAV per unit at the time of cancellation calculated in accordance with the Deed.

Theliquid assets comprise cash, deposits with licensed fi nancial institutions and other instruments, which are capable of being converted into cash within 7 days.

The following table analyses the maturity profi le of the Fund’s fi nancial assets and fi nancial liabilities in order to provide a complete view of the Fund’s contractual commitments and liquidity.

i) Financial assets

Analysis of fi nancial assets at FVTPL into maturity groupings is based on the expected date on which these assets will be realised. The Fund’s investments in quoted equity securities and quoted collective investment schemes have been included in the “up to 1 year” category on the assumption that these are highly liquid investments which can be realised should all of the Fund’s unitholders’ equity be required to be redeemed. For other assets, the analysis into maturity groupings is based on the remaining period from the end of the reporting period to the contractual maturity date or if earlier, the expected date on which the assets will be realised.

ii) Financial liabilities

The maturity grouping is based on the remaining period from the end of the reporting period to the contractual maturity date or if earlier, the date on which liabilities will be settled. When the counterparty has a choice of when the amount is paid, the liability is allocated to the earliest period in which the Fund can be required to pay.

iii) Equity

As unitholders can request for redemption of their units, they have been categorised as having a maturity of “up to 1 year”.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD.)

c. Financial Assets

Financial assets are recognised in the statement of fi nancial position when, and only when, the Fund becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the fi nancial instruments.

When fi nancial assets are recognised initially, they are measured at fair value, plus, in the case of fi nancial assets not at FVTPL, directly attributable transaction costs.

The Fund determines the classifi cation of its fi nancial assets at initial recognition.

i. Financial assets at FVTPL

Financial assets are classifi ed as fi nancial assets at FVTPL if they are held for trading or are designated as such upon initial recognition.

Financial assets held for trading include quoted equity securities and quoted collective investment schemes acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the near term.

Subsequent to initial recognition, fi nancial assets at FVTPL are measured at fair value. Changes in the fair value of those fi nancial instruments are recorded in profi t or loss.

Interest earned and dividend revenue elements of such instruments are recorded separately in “interest income” and “dividend income”, respectively.

ii. Receivables

Financial assets with fi xed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market are classifi ed as receivables.

Subsequent to initial recognition, receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Gain or loss is recognised in profi t or loss when the receivable is derecognised or impaired, and through the amortisation process.

A fi nancial asset is derecognised when the contractual right to receive cash fl ows from the asset has expired. On derecognition of a fi nancial asset, the difference between the carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received is recognised in profi t or loss.

27 Kenanga Blue Chip Fund Annual Report

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD.)

d. Impairment of Financial Assets

The Fund assesses at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that a fi nancial asset is impaired.

To determine whether there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on fi nancial assets has been incurred, the Fund considers factors such as the probability of insolvency or signifi cant fi nancial diffi culties of the debtor and default or signifi cant delay in payments.

If any such evidence exists, the amount of impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash fl ows discounted at the fi nancial asset’s original effective rate of return. The impairment loss is recognised in profi t or loss.

The carrying amount of the fi nancial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all fi nancial assets, with the exception of receivables, where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account. When a receivable becomes uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account.

If in a subsequent year, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed to the extent that the carrying amount of the assets does not exceed its amortised cost at the reversal date. The amount of reversal is recognised in profi t or loss.

e. Income

Income is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefi ts will fl ow to the Fund and the income can be reliably measured. Income is measured at the fair value of consideration received or receivable.

Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method.

Dividend income is recognised on declared basis, when the right to receive the dividend is established.

The realised gain or loss on sale of investments is measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the investment.

f. Cash and Cash Equivalents

For the purposes of the statement of cash fl ows, cash and cash equivalents include cash at bank and short term deposits with licensed fi nancial institutions.

28Kenanga Blue Chip Fund Annual Report

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD.)

g. Income Tax

Income tax on the profi t or loss for the fi nancial year comprises current tax. Current tax is the expected amount of income taxes payable in respect of the taxable profi t for the fi nancial year.

As no temporary differences have been identifi ed, no deferred tax has been recognised.

h. Unrealised Reserves

Unrealised reserves represent the net gain or loss arising from carrying investments at their fair values at reporting date. This reserve is not distributable.

i. Financial Liabilities

Financial liabilities are classifi ed according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into and the defi nitions of a fi nancial liability.

Financial liabilities are recognised in the statement of fi nancial position when, and only when, the Fund becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the fi nancial instrument. The Fund’s fi nancial liabilities are classifi ed as other fi nancial liabilities. The Fund’s fi nancial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

A fi nancial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is extinguished. Gains and losses are recognised in profi t or loss when the liabilities are derecognised, and through the amortisation process.

j. Unitholders’ Contribution – NAV Attributable to Unitholders

The unitholders’ contribution to the Fund is classifi ed as equity instruments. Distribution equalisation represents the average amount of undistributed net income

included in the creation or cancellation price of units. This amount is either refunded to unitholders by way of distribution and/or adjusted accordingly when units are released back to the Trustee.

k. Functional and Presentation Currency The fi nancial statements of the Fund are measured using the currency of the primary

economic environment in which the Fund operates (“the functional currency”). The fi nancial statements are presented in Ringgit Malaysia (“RM”), which is also the Fund’s functional currency.

l. Distribution

Distributions are at the discretion of the Manager. A distribution to the Fund’s unitholders is accounted for as a deduction from retained earnings.
