Chairman’s Message

On behalf of the Board, I am pleased to present to you SHC Capital Asia Limited (the “Company”) Annual Report for the financial year ended 31 December 2014 (“FY2014”).

The Year In ReviewOn 1 August 2014, the Company completed the disposal of its wholly-owned subsidiary, SHC Insurance Pte. Ltd. to ERGO International AG for a consideration of S$117.340 million. The Company recorded a profit of S$66.561 million for FY2014, out of which S$64.725 million is directly attributed to the gain on the sale of its insurance subsidiary. The Company has since the close of the sale transaction, declared a special dividend of S$0.12 per ordinary share which returned S$36.718 million to shareholders. Your Board is also proposing the payment of a final dividend of S$0.09 per ordinary share amounting to S$27.538 million for FY2014. With the payment of the proposed final dividend, the Company would have returned a total of S$64.256 million back to shareholders, representing substantially the profit arising from the sale of the Company’s insurance subsidiary. The Board will continue to review the Company’s capital management policy and to consider the return of all surplus capital to shareholders as part of the on-going new business acquisition process.

Following the completion of the disposal, the Company ceased to have any operating subsidiaries or businesses and accordingly, the Company is rendered a cash company within the meaning of Rule 1017 of the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited Listing Manual Section B: Rules of Catalist with effect from 1 August 2014.

On 27 March 2015, the Company has entered into a non-binding memorandum of understanding to acquire 100% equity interest in Tong Da Medical Limited for a purchase consideration of approximately S$120 million, subject to fulfilment of certain conditions (“Proposed Acquisition”). Please refer to the Company’s announcement dated 27 March 2015 released via SGXNET in relation to the Proposed Acquisition for further details.

The Company will make the appropriate announcement(s) as and when there are any material updates or developments in relation to the Proposed Acquisition.

Report on Corporate Governance

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of SHC Capital Asia Limited (the “Company”) is committed to maintaining a high standard of corporate governance to safeguard the interests of shareholders of the Company (the “Shareholders”) and to promote investors’ confidence and support in complying with the Code of Corporate Governance 2012 (“Code 2012”) required by the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited (“SGX-ST”).

The Board is pleased to confirm that for the financial year ended 31 December 2014 (“FY2014”), the Company has adhered to the principles and guidelines as set out in the Code 2012, except where otherwise stated.

Board Matters

The Board’s Conduct of Affairs(in accordance with Principle 1 of the Code)

The Board has overall responsibility for the corporate governance of the Company so as to protect and enhance long-term Shareholders’ value. It sets the overall strategy for the Company and supervises executive management and monitors their performance. Apart from its statutory responsibilities, the principal functions of the Board are:

(a) To approve the broad policies, strategies and financial objectives of the Company;

(b) To review Management’s performance, annual budget, significant financial and operating expenditures, acquisition and disposal of significant investments, significant related-party transactions and prospects of the Company;

(c) To approve nominations to the Board and the removal and appointment of senior management staff, as may be recommended by the Nominating Committee of the Company (“NC”);

(d) To identify principal risks of the Company’s business and ensure adequate system of internal controls, risk management processes and systems are in place;

(e) To assume responsibility for corporate governance of the Company; and

(f) To consider any sustainability issues as part of its strategic formulation.

To facilitate effective execution of its responsibilities, certain functions have been delegated to various Board Committees, namely, the Audit Committee (“AC”), the NC and the Remuneration Committee (“RC”) which are chaired by Independent Directors, without abdicating its responsibility. The Board Committees were established to assist the Board. The Board Committees function within clearly defined terms of references and operating procedures. The effectiveness of each Board Committee is reviewed by the Board on a regular basis. The ultimate responsibility for the final decision on all matters lies with the entire Board.

Prior to completion of the disposal of its wholly owned subsidiary, SHC Insurance Pte Ltd (“SHC Insurance”), on 1 August 2014 (the “Disposal”), the Board meetings were mainly to review and deliberate on the key activities and business strategies of SHC Insurance. Following the Disposal and as the Company has become a cash company without any operating business, the Board meets at least twice a year, with additional meetings convened when circumstances arise. These Board meetings are convened mainly to review and approve the release of financial results’ announcements and to deliberate on potential acquisition opportunities.

The Articles of Association of the Company provide that meetings can be held via tele-conferencing, video conferencing or other means of similar communications equipment. All relevant information on material events and transactions are circulated to Directors on timely basis. Prior to a Board meeting, the agenda for the meeting, relevant information on material events and transactions will be circulated to all the directors of the Company (“Directors”) for their perusal to enable them to obtain further clarifications/explanations and to ensure smooth proceeding of the meeting. The proceedings and resolutions reached at each Board meeting will be minuted and signed by the Chairman of the meeting. Besides Board meetings, the Board exercises control on matters that require the Board’s deliberation and approval through circulation of the Directors’ resolution(s).

Corporate Governance Report

During FY2014, Mr. Teo Eu Jin, Nicholas had attended training programmes organised by the Singapore Institute of Directors to familiarise himself with the roles and responsibilities of a director of a listed company. Mr. Teo Hsi Leang had also attended relevant courses organised by the Singapore Institute of Directors relating to his role as a director of a listed company.

The Board has instituted a process to review the training needs of all the Directors on an annual basis to ensure that they are equipped with the appropriate skills and knowledge to effectively perform their roles on the Board and Board Committees.

The Directors are informed from time to time of developments relevant to the Company including any new or changes in the laws and regulations that will impact the Company and have access to all information concerning the Company.

The Interim Chief Financial Officer (“Interim CFO”) of the Company provides regular updates to the Board relating to cash utilisation and investment activities and the Board has separate and independent access to the Interim CFO.

Board Composition and Guidance (in accordance with Principle 2 of the Code)

The Board at the beginning of FY2014 comprised the following:

Mr. Teo Soo Kiat, Non-Executive Chairman Mr. Teo Soo ChewMr. Teo Chiang KhaiMr. Low Seow JuanMr. Adrian Peh Nam ChuanMr. Tan Hup FoiMr. Chua Kee Lock

Following the completion of the Disposal on 1 August 2014, Messrs Low Seow Juan, Adrian Peh Nam Chuan, Tan Hup Foi and Chua Kee Lock resigned as Directors and Messrs Teo Hsi Leang, Ng Fook Ai, Victor and Teo Eu Jin, Nicholas, were appointed as Directors contemporaneously. Mr. Teo Soo Kiat was also appointed as the Interim Chief Executive Officer (“Interim CEO”) of the Company on 1 August 2014 following the completion of the Disposal.

The names of the Directors in office as at the date of this report are:

Mr. Teo Soo Kiat, Chairman and Interim CEOMr. Teo Soo ChewMr. Teo Chiang KhaiMr. Teo Hsi LeangMr. Ng Fook Ai, VictorMr. Teo Eu Jin, Nicholas

The current Board members collectively have a combination of experience in various fields, as well as legal, business and finance expertise.

Mr. Teo Soo Kiat is the Chairman of the Board and was appointed the Interim CEO of the Company with effect from 1 August 2014. Mr. Teo Hsi Leang was appointed to the Board as a Non-Executive Non-Independent Director on 1 August 2014. Messrs Teo Soo Kiat, Teo Soo Chew, Teo Chiang Khai and Teo Hsi Leang are not independent by virtue of their family relationship and interests in SHC Capital Holdings Pte Ltd, the major shareholder of the Company.

Messrs Ng Fook Ai, Victor and Teo Eu Jin, Nicholas were appointed as Non-Executive Independent Directors on 1 August 2014. Mr. Ng Fook Ai, Victor was also appointed as the Lead Independent Director of the Company with effect from 1 August 2014. The Board has determined that Messrs Ng Fook Ai, Victor and Teo Eu Jin, Nicholas are independent in character and there are no relationships or circumstances which are likely to affect or could appear to affect their judgement.

There is a strong and independent element on the Board, with one-third of the Directors being independent. No individual or small group of individuals dominates the decision making process of the Board. It is unlikely that the discharge of responsibilities in these roles will be compromised as all major financial decisions made are reviewed by the AC and approved by the Board. Nevertheless, as the Chairman of the Board is a controlling shareholder and not an Independent Director, in accordance with Guideline 2.2 of the Code 2012, the Board will seek to make changes to its composition such that Independent Directors make up at least half of the Board by the time of the Annual General Meeting following the financial year ending 31 December 2017.

11ANNUAL REPORT 2014SHC CAPITAL ASIA LIMITED

Page 14: Writing a New€¦ · period, marketing and tenancy management, security and car park operations. Pursuant to Article 99, Mr. Teo Chiang Khai will retire at the forthcoming Annual

The Board, after taking into account that the Company has ceased to have any operating business following completion of the Disposal and is deemed a cash company under Rule 1017 of the SGX-ST Listing Manual Section B: Rules of Catalist (“Listing Manual”), is satisfied that its current size is adequate and appropriate and that the present composition of the Board allows it to effectively exercise objective judgement independently of the Interim CEO and Interim CFO. The composition of the Board will be reviewed on an annual basis by the NC to ensure that the Board has the appropriate mix of expertise and experience and collectively possesses the necessary core competencies for effective decision making.

The Non-Executive Directors review the performance of Interim CEO and Interim CFO. Their views and opinions provide alternative perspectives to the Company’s directions and investment criteria. To facilitate a more effective check on management, the Non-Executive Directors are encouraged to meet regularly without the presence of the Interim CEO and Interim CFO.

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (in accordance with Principle 3 of the Code)

The current role of the Chairman is not separated from the Interim CEO. Following the completion of the Disposal on 1 August 2014, Mr. Teo Soo Kiat was appointed as the Interim CEO of the Company. Taking into consideration that the Company is presently a cash company with no significant business activities, the Board is of the view that it is appropriate for the Chairman to also assume the role of the CEO on an interim basis.

The Chairman is responsible for leading the Board and ensures that all Directors receive complete, adequate and timely information (both financial and non-financial) to enable them to participate effectively in Board discussions and decisions. The Chairman also assists in ensuring compliance with the corporate governance policy of the Company.

The Interim CEO is responsible for overall corporate direction and establishing investment criteria. He is also responsible for the day-to-day management of the Company’s general corporate affairs.

Following completion of the Disposal, Mr. Tan Hup Foi had resigned as Lead Independent Director on 1 August 2014 and Mr. Ng Fook Ai, Victor was appointed to replace him as the Lead Independent Director.

The Lead Independent Director provides checks and balances without diffusing Board leadership and is available to Shareholders where they have concerns and for which contact through the normal channels of the Chairman, the Interim CEO or the Interim CFO has failed to resolve or is inappropriate.

Board Membership

Board Membership and Board Performance(in accordance with Principles 4 & 5 of the Code)

Accordingly, Messrs Teo Hsi Leang, Ng Fook Ai, Victor and Teo Eu Jin, Nicholas are subject to retirement by rotation at the forthcoming AGM.

Mr. Teo Chiang Khai, who was appointed to the Board as a Non-Executive Non-Independent Director on 15 March 2012, is subject to retirement by rotation at the forthcoming AGM in accordance with Article 99 of the Company’s Articles of Association which requires one-third of the Directors to retire by rotation at every AGM.

The NC meets at least once a year. During FY2014, the NC met once. Additional meetings can be scheduled if considered necessary by the Chairman of the NC.

The Company has internal guidelines stipulating that each Director could serve on a maximum of five boards of publicly listed companies to address competing time commitments that are faced when Directors serve on multiple boards. As at the date of this report, none of the Directors holds directorships in more than five publicly listed companies. The NC has reviewed and is satisfied that all the Directors, including those who serve on multiple boards, are able to perform their duties effectively. Each NC member abstains from deliberating on his own performance and re-election as a Director.

In its search and nomination process for new Directors, the NC has, at its disposal, search companies, personal contacts and recommendations, to cast its net as wide as possible for the right candidates. The NC also takes into consideration the skill base of each Director.

During FY2014, the NC has reviewed and recommended to the Board that Messrs Ng Fook Ai, Victor and Teo Eu Jin, Nicholas are independent in character as there are no relationships or circumstances which are likely to affect or could appear to affect their judgement.

The date of initial appointment and last re-election of each Director, together with their directorships held in other listed companies as at the date of this report are as below:–

For Non-Executive Directors, the quantum of fees reflects the level of responsibilities undertaken by them. Except for the Chairman and Interim CEO, Non-Executive Directors are paid a basic Director’s fee and an additional fee for serving on any of the Board Committees. In determining the quantum of such fees, factors such as frequency of meetings, time spent and responsibilities of Directors are taken into account. In addition, Non-Executive Directors who are not controlling shareholders of the Company or its associates are entitled to participate in the SHC Capital Asia Employee Share Option Scheme. The RC has recommended for shareholders’ approval the payment of Additional Directors’ Fees to the three new Non-Executive Directors appointed during FY2014. The Additional Directors’ Fees comprise the basic Directors’ fees in respect of FY2014 payable to the three new Non-Executive Directors for serving on the Board and Board Committee since their appointment on 1 August 2014.

The Lead Independent Director is paid a fee in addition to the remuneration due to him for his duties and responsibilities as a director on the Board and for assuming roles in the various Board committees.

According to the service agreement entered into between the Company and the Interim CEO, Mr. Teo Soo Kiat is paid a monthly retainer fee and a variable performance bonus in the event that the Company successfully acquires a business which meets the listing criteria. The service agreement is for an initial period of one year commencing on 1 August 2014 and the agreement can be extended on terms and conditions to be agreed between the Company and the Interim CEO. The service agreement may be terminated by the Company or the Interim CEO by giving not less than three months’ written notice of such termination.

During FY2014, the RC met once. Additional meetings will be scheduled if considered necessary by the Chairman of the RC. All revisions to the remuneration packages for the Directors and the Interim CEO and Interim CFO are subject to the review and approval of the Board. No Director shall take part in decisions pertaining to his own remuneration. Where necessary, the RC will consult human resource experts on remuneration matters of the Directors and key management personnel.

As certain Directors and the Group CEO have already resigned from the Company following the Disposal and to maintain confidentiality, the Board has decided not to disclose the specific remuneration of each individual Director and the Company’s CEO(s) but will disclose such information in bands of S$250,000 instead.

Audit Committee (“AC”)

The AC at the beginning of FY2014 comprised the following members, all of whom, including the Chairman of the AC, were Independent Directors:

Mr. Tan Hup Foi, ChairmanMr. Adrian Peh Nam ChuanMr. Chua Kee Lock

The AC was reconstituted following the resignations of Messrs Tan Hup Foi, Adrian Peh Nam Chuan and Chua Kee Lock on 1 August 2014 after the completion of the Disposal, and as at the date of this report, the AC comprised the following members:

Mr. Ng Fook Ai, Victor, Chairman Mr. Teo Soo Chew Mr. Teo Eu Jin, Nicholas

The AC comprises three members. All the members of the AC are Non-Executive Directors, the majority of whom, including the Chairman, are independent.

Messrs Ng Fook Ai, Victor and Teo Soo Chew have extensive management and financial experiences while Mr. Teo Eu Jin, Nicholas is a lawyer by profession. The Board is of the view that the AC has sufficient financial management expertise and experience amongst its members to discharge the AC’s responsibilities.

The terms of reference of the AC provides that the AC shall meet at least four times a year. The AC, having considered that the Company has become a cash company under Rule 1017 of the Listing Manual following the completion of the Disposal on 1 August 2014, has decided that the frequency of AC meetings be reduced to at least twice a year, with additional meetings will be scheduled, if necessary, during the period while the Company remains as a cash company.

During FY2014, two AC meetings were held. The AC carried out its functions in accordance with the requirements of the Singapore Companies Act, Cap. 50 and the Listing Manual.

The AC, which has its written terms of reference, performs, inter-alia, the following functions:

(a) To review the audit plans of the internal and external auditors, the results of their audits and their effectiveness in evaluating the Company’s system of internal controls;

(b) To review the Company’s financial results and its accounting policies to ensure the integrity of the financial statements of the Company;

(i) To evaluate the nature and extent of non-audit services provided by the external auditors;

(l) To review interested person transactions (if any) in accordance with the requirements of the Listing Manual.

The AC has full access to and co-operation of the management. The internal and external auditors have unrestricted access to the AC. During FY2014, the AC met with the external auditors, without the presence of the management. The AC also conducted a review of the independence and objectivity of external auditors annually. The AC is satisfied that the Company’s external auditors are able to meet the audit requirements and statutory obligation of the Company. The AC also received from the external auditors regular updates on changes and amendments to accounting standards to enable the AC’s members to keep abreast of such changes, and issues which have a direct impact on financial statements.

During FY2014, the aggregate amount of fees paid to the external auditors, Messrs KPMG LLP, amounted to approximately S$16,000, comprising S$12,000 paid for the provision of audit services and S$4,000 paid for the provision of non-audit services to the Company. The AC has reviewed the non-audit services provided by the external auditors and noted the fees charged by the external auditors for the provision of non-audit services in FY2014. The AC has confirmed that during FY2014, such services would not, in its opinion, affect the independence of Messrs KPMG LLP as external auditors. The AC has recommended to the Board the nomination of the external auditors for re-appointment at the forthcoming AGM.

The Company complies with Rules 712 and 715 of the Listing Manual in relation to the appointment of Messrs KPMG LLP as its external auditors.

Under the AC’s direction, the Company has instituted a whistle-blowing policy by which staff may raise their concerns in confidence about possible improprieties in matters of financial reporting or other matters.

ANNUAL REPORT 2014SHC CAPITAL ASIA LIMITED

Page 22: Writing a New€¦ · period, marketing and tenancy management, security and car park operations. Pursuant to Article 99, Mr. Teo Chiang Khai will retire at the forthcoming Annual

As the Company had completed the Disposal of SHC Insurance on 1 August 2014 and does not presently have any operating business, the Board has decided not to renew the general mandate previously approved by the Company’s shareholders relating to IPTs at the forthcoming AGM.

Save as disclosed above, there were no material contracts or loans entered into by the Company involving the interests of the CEO, any Director or controlling Shareholder of the Company, either still subsisting at the end of FY2014 or if not subsisting, were entered into since 31 December 2014.

Risk Management, Internal Controls and Internal Audit

The Board is entrusted to review the Company’s business and investment activities to identify areas of significant risks as well as appropriate measures to control and mitigate these risks. The Board reviews all significant control policies and procedures and highlights all significant matters to the management.

As the Company is currently a cash company and does not have any operating business following the completion of the Disposal, the AC is of the view that the current status does not warrant the Company having an in-house internal audit function or to outsource its internal audit function. The management and the Board will review the adequacy and integrity of the Company’s internal controls system and report directly to the AC on any material non-compliance and internal control weakness, and will recommend improvements, where necessary. The AC will oversee and monitor the implementation of any improvements thereto.

The Board is of the view that the present level of internal control is appropriate for a cash company. The Board will continue to review such internal control system at least on an annual basis.

Based on the internal controls established and maintained by the Company, work performed by the external auditors and reviews performed by the management and the Board, the Board, with the concurrence of the AC, is of the opinion that the Company’s internal controls, including financial, operational, compliance and information technology controls and risk management framework which the Company considers relevant and material to its operations, were adequate and effective as at 31 December 2014.

In accordance with the scope laid out in the audit plan, the external auditors carry out a review of the effectiveness of the Company’s material financial controls in the course of their annual statutory audit. Material non-compliance and financial control weaknesses noted during their audit are reported to the AC together with the auditors’ recommendations.

The Board has received assurance from the Interim CEO and the Interim CFO that:

(a) the financial records have been properly maintained and the financial statements give a true and fair view of the Company’s operations and finances; and

(b) the Company’s risk management and internal control systems are effective and adequate.

Shareholder Rights and Responsibilities

Shareholder Rights, Communication with Shareholders and Conduct of Shareholders’ Meetings(in accordance with Principles 14, 15 and 16 of the Code)

The Board acknowledges the importance of regular communication with Shareholders and investors through which Shareholders can have an overview of the Company’s financial position and progress in seeking an acquisition. This is made amongst others by way of the Company’s annual report, circulars to Shareholders (in the event of a corporate action), results announcements, monthly cash utilisation reports and quarterly announcements to update Shareholders of milestones in obtaining a new business.

At each AGM, to solicit and understand the views of Shareholders, Shareholders are encouraged to meet and communicate with the Board and to vote on all resolutions. At the AGM, the performance of the Company’s business will be presented by the Board. Shareholders can seek clarification on any issues so as to understand the Company’s business. The Chairman of the Audit, Remuneration and Nominating Committees will be present and available to address questions at the meeting to answer those questions relating to the work of these committees. The external auditors are also present to assist the Directors in addressing any relevant questions by Shareholders.

The Articles allow a member of the Company to appoint one proxy or two proxies to attend and vote instead of the member. The Directors may, at their discretion, allow absentia-voting methods such as mail, e-mail or fax.

The Board will review its Articles of Association from time to time. Where amendment to its Articles of Association is required to align the relevant provisions with the requirements of the Listing Manual, Shareholders’ approval will be obtained.

The Company ensures that there are separate resolutions at general meetings on each distinct issue.

Report on the financial statements

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of SHC Capital Asia Limited (the “Company”), which comprise the statements of financial position as at 31 December 2014, the statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, as set out on pages 28 to 50.

Management’s responsibility for the financial statements

Management is responsible for the preparation of financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with the provisions of the Singapore Companies Act, Chapter 50 (the Act) and Singapore Financial Reporting Standards, and for devising and maintaining a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide a reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorised use or disposition; and transactions are properly authorised and that they are recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of true and fair profit and loss accounts and balance sheets and to maintain accountability of assets.

Auditors’ responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Singapore Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation of financial statements that give a true and fair view 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 entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

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

Opinion

In our opinion, the financial statements are properly drawn up in accordance with the provisions of the Act and Singapore Financial Reporting Standards to give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Company as at 31 December 2014 and the results, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company for the year ended on that date.

Report on other legal and regulatory requirements

In our opinion, the accounting and other records required by the Act to be kept by the Company have been properly kept in accordance with the provisions of the Act.

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. All items of property, plant and equipment are initially recorded at cost.

The initial cost of property, plant and equipment comprises its purchase price, including any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to its working condition and location for its intended use. Expenditure incurred after the property, plant and equipment has been put into operation, such as repairs and maintenance and overhaul costs, are normally charged to the profit or loss in the period in which the costs are incurred. In situations where it can be clearly demonstrated that the expenditure has resulted in an increase in the future economic benefits expected to be obtained from the use of an item of property, plant and equipment beyond its originally assessed standard of performance, the expenditure is capitalised as part of the property, plant and equipment.

Depreciation

Depreciation is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each component of an item of property, plant and equipment.

The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative years are as follows:

Motor vehicles – 5 years

Fully depreciated property, plant and equipment are retained in the financial statements until they are no longer in use and no further charge for depreciation is made in respect of these assets.

The useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed periodically to ensure that the method and period of depreciation are consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits from items of property, plant and equipment. An assessment of the carrying value of the property, plant and equipment is made when there are indications that the assets have been impaired or the impairment losses recognised in prior years no longer exist.

3.2 Investment in subsidiary

Subsidiary is an entity controlled by the Company. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.

Investment in subsidiary is stated at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. An assessment of recoverable amounts of investment in subsidiary is performed when there is an indication that the investment may have been impaired.

Upon the loss of control, the Company derecognises the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary, any non-controlling interests and the other components of equity related to the subsidiary. Any surplus or deficit arising on the loss of control is recognised in profit or loss. If the Company retains any interest in the previous subsidiary, then such interest is measured at fair value at the date that control is lost. Subsequently, it is accounted for as an equity-accounted investee or as an available-for-sale financial asset depending on the level of influence retained.

On disposal of investment in subsidiary, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the investment is recognised in the profit or loss.

3.3 Financial instruments

Non-derivativefinancialassets

The Company initially recognised loans and receivables and deposits on the date that they are originated. All other financial assets are recognised initially on the trade date at which the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

The Company derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the statement of financial position when, and only when, the Company has a legal right to offset the amounts and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

The Company has the following non-derivatives financial assets: Loans and receivables.

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in active market. Such assets are recognised initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost using effective interest rate method, less any impairment losses.

Loans and receivables comprise other receivables, deposits and cash and cash equivalents.

Non-derivativefinancialliabilities

The Company initially recognises financial liabilities on the trade date at which the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

The Company derecognises a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled or expire.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the balance sheet when, and only when, the Company has a legal right to offset the amounts and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

The Company has the following non-derivative financial liabilities: Other payables.

Such financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, these financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

3.4 Impairment

Non-derivativefinancialassets

A financial asset not carried at fair value through profit or loss is assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is objective evidence that it is impaired. A financial asset is impaired if objective evidence indicates that a loss event has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset, and that the loss event had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of that asset that can be estimated reliably.

Objective evidence that financial assets (including equity securities) are impaired can include default or delinquency by a debtor, restructuring of an amount due to the Company on terms that the Company would not consider otherwise, indications that a debtor or issuer will enter bankruptcy, the disappearance of an active market for a security. In addition, for an investment in an equity security, a significant or prolonged decline in its fair value below its cost is objective evidence of impairment.

Loans and receivables

The Company considers evidence of impairment for receivables at a specific asset level. All individually significant receivables are assessed for specific impairment.

An impairment loss in respect of a financial asset measured at amortised cost is calculated as the difference between its carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. Losses are recognised in profit or loss and reflected in an allowance account against receivables. Interest on the impaired asset continues to be recognised through the unwinding of the discount. When a subsequent event causes the amount of impairment loss to decrease, the decrease in impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss.

3.5 Provisions

A provision is recognised in the statement of financial position when the Company has a legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. If the effect is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability.

3.6 Employee benefits

Definedcontributionplans

Obligations for contributions to a statutory defined contribution plan are recognised as an expense in the profit or loss as incurred.

A liability is recognised for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to the reporting date. Employee benefits expected to be settled within one financial year arising from annual leave are measured at their nominal amount.

Share-based payment transactions

The grant date fair value of share-based payment awards granted to employees is recognised as an employee expense, with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period that the employees unconditionally become entitled to the awards. The amount recognised as an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of awards for which the related service and non-market vesting conditions are expected to be met, such that the amount ultimately recognised as an expense is based on the number of awards that do meet the related service and non-market performance conditions at the vesting date.

3.7 Revenue

Other income

Other income comprises gains on disposal of available-for-sale financial assets and investment in subsidiary and sundry income.

3 Significant accounting policies (cont’d)

3.8 Finance income

Finance income comprises interest income from available-for-sale financial assets and cash and cash equivalents, dividend income and fair value gain on option derivative designated at fair value through profit or loss. Interest income is recognised as it accrues in profit or loss, using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recognised in profit or loss on the date that the Company’s right to receive payment is established, which in the case of quoted securities is the ex-dividend date.

Foreign currency gains and losses are reported on a net basis as either finance income or finance cost depending on whether foreign currency movements are in a net gain or net loss position.

3.9 Dividends

Dividends payable on the issued ordinary shares are recognised as a liability in the financial year in which they are declared.

3.10 Income tax

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity or in other comprehensive income.

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the financial year, using tax rates enacted or substantially enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous financial years.

Deferred tax is provided in full using the liability method, on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realised simultaneously.

A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the assets can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.

In determining the amount of current and deferred tax, the Company takes into account the impact of uncertain tax positions and whether additional taxes and interest may be due. The Company believes that its accruals for tax liabilities are adequate for all open tax years based on its assessment of many factors, including interpretations of tax law and prior experience. This assessment relies on estimates and assumptions and may involve a series of judgements about future events. New information may become available that causes the Company to change its judgement regarding the adequacy of existing tax liabilities; such changes to tax liabilities will impact tax expense in the period that such a determination is made.

3.11 Key management personnel

Key management personnel of the Company are those persons having the authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Company. The Directors, the Interim Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer are considered as key management personnel of the Company.

3.12 Government grants

Special Employment Credit Scheme

Cash grants received from the government in relation to the Special Employment Credit Scheme are recognised upon receipt. Such grants are provided to defray the wage costs incurred by the Company to encourage hiring of older Singapore workers, and are offset against staff costs in the financial statements.

3.13 Earnings per share

The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year, adjusted for own shares held. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding, adjusted for own shares held, for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, which comprises share options granted to employees of the Company.

3.14 New standards and interpretations not yet adopted

A number of new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations are effective for annual periods beginning after 1 January 2014, and have not been applied in preparing these financial statements. None of these are expected to have a significant effect on the financial statements of the Company.

4 Critical accounting estimates and judgements in applying accounting policies

Management has assessed the development, selection and disclosure of the critical accounting policies and estimates, and the application of these policies and estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Critical judgements in applying accounting policies

In the preparation of the financial statements, there were no critical judgements that management made in the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies that have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements.

Key sources of estimation uncertainty

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the balance sheet date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.

(a) Estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment

The cost of the property, plant and equipment is depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated economic useful lives. The Company reviews the residual values and useful lives of the property, plant and equipment at the balance sheet date in accordance with the accounting policy in Note 3.1. Significant judgement is required in determining the residual values and useful lives, the Company considered the expected usage, maintenance and repair costs of property, plant and equipment. Any changes to these judgements could impact the economic useful lives and residual values of these property, plant and equipment and therefore future depreciation charges could be revised. A reduction in the estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment would increase the recorded depreciation and decrease the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment. The carrying amount of property, plant and equipment at the balance sheet date is disclosed in Note 6.

5 Financial risk

The main risks arising from the Company’s financial instruments are credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk (comprising interest rate risk, foreign currency risk and price risk). The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarised below:

(i) Credit risk

The carrying amount of other receivables, and cash and cash equivalents represent the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk.

Cash and fixed deposits are placed with banks and financial institutions which are regulated in Singapore and have high credit ratings assigned by international credit-rating agency.

At the reporting date, the Company has no significant concentration of credit risk.

(ii) Liquidity risk

An important aspect of the Company’s management of assets and liabilities is to ensure that cash is available to settle liabilities as they fall due. The Company maintains cash and liquid deposits to meet these demands on a daily basis.

The undiscounted cash outflows of other payables as at the reporting date are expected to occur within 1 year and approximate their carrying amounts.

(iii) Interest rate risk

The Company’s exposure to changes in interest rates relates primarily to its short term fixed deposits.

The Company does not have any debt securities with variable interest rate. The Company’s cash holdings are held mainly in fixed deposits, and are thus exposed to interest rate risks when the deposits have to be rolled over.

The Company’s operating and investing cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rate. As at the reporting date, since the interest rates earned are at very low levels, the risk that interest rates will fall significantly lower or become zero is very low.

(iv) Foreign currency risk

During the ordinary course of business, the Company may engage in foreign currency denominated transactions or invest in foreign currency equity or debt securities. As a result, the Company is exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates.

The Company does not use derivative financial instruments to protect itself against the volatility associated with foreign currency transactions, and other financial assets and liabilities created in the ordinary course of business.

The Company’s foreign currency exposures as at 31 December 2014 are not significant.

5 Financial risk (cont’d)

(v) Equity price risk

The Company does not have any exposure to equity price risks as it does not hold any equity securities.

Derivative financial instruments

The fair value of derivative financial instrument-option was determined by an independent professional valuer. During the year, the option was terminated with the deposit of $300,000 (2013: Nil) received by the Company. See Note 8 for details.

Other financial assets and liabilities

The carrying amounts of other financial assets and liabilities with maturities of less than one year (including other receivables, cash and cash equivalents, and other payables), less any allowance for impairment losses, are assumed to approximate their fair values because of their short periods to maturity, repricing to market interest rates within a short period or are receivable/payable on demand.

Fair value hierarchy

The table below analyses financial assets carried at fair value, by valuation method. The different levels have been defined as follows:

– Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

– Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices).

– Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

Capital management

Prior to the Disposal, the Company’s capital management policy aims to:– maintain a strong capital base to sustain and grow the business so as to uphold investors, creditors and market

confidence; and– provide an adequate return to shareholders through prudent underwriting of insurance risks and optimising

investment returns within the risk parameters established by the Board.

Following the completion of the Disposal on 1 August 2014, the Company ceased to have any operating business and has become a cash company within the meaning of Rule 1017 of the Catalist Rules.

When the proposed final dividend is approved by shareholders and eventually paid subsequent to year end, the Company would have returned a total of $64.256 million back to its shareholders, representing substantially the profit from the sale of SHC Insurance.

The Board will continue to review the Company’s capital management policy and will assess the capital position of the Company taking into consideration any new business opportunities and investments that may present themselves from time to time and which the Board regards to be in the interest of the Company and its shareholders.

The Board monitors the return on shareholders’ equity, which is defined as net profit after tax divided by total shareholders’ equity, and the level of dividends to ordinary shareholders.
