Dear Shareholders, On behalf of the Board of Directors, it is my pleasure to present to you our Annual Report for the financial year ended 31 December 2011 (FY2011). FY2011 was a year in which the Eurozone debt crisis, coming so soon after the U.S. financial crisis caused by the sub-prime problem, significantly impacted the global garment industry. Amidst the high unemployment and weaker consumer spending, demand for garments has slowed. As a significant portion of our sales is derived from European customers, Great Group was impacted by the reductions and delays of our contract manufacturing orders.

The economic sentiment in Europe started to decline significantly in the second half of FY2011, even as the earlier pressure from rising raw material prices started to ease. It was also a period when our entire management team was focused on two key activities the relocation of a significant portion of our manufacturing activities in Quanzhou City to a new facility and increased marketing activities within the Peoples Republic of China (PRC) and at various garment fairs around the world. Hence, it is against this economic backdrop and significant internal developments that I present you our financial scorecard. Financial Review Revenue for FY2011 rose 8.6% to RMB679.8 million. This was mainly attributable to higher sales volume in the first nine months of the financial year before the slowdown (due to the Euro crisis) gathered momentum in the fourth quarter. Our increased sales orders recorded amidst the challenging conditions also reflected higher average selling prices achieved as we widened our product range. Gross profit increased by 11.0% from RMB109.6 million in FY2010 to RMB121.7 million in FY2011, mainly contributed by the contract manufacturing segment which recorded higher sales volume with higher average selling price and the reduced pressure from raw material prices, in particular cotton and cloth materials. Net profit attributable to shareholders in FY2011 of RMB53.0 million was lower than RMB75.1 million a year ago, due to the slowdown in export sales of some key products, increase in selling and distribution expenses and administrative expenses, professional fees as well as higher income tax expense. Earnings per share (EPS) for FY2011 (based on issued share capital base of 265 million shares) decreased to 20.0 RMB cents from 28.32 RMB cents in FY2010. Net asset value per share as at 31 December 2011 was at 1.55 RMB compared to 1.41 RMB as at 31 December 2010.

Strategies to Respond to Market Conditions The Group has already set in motion several initiatives to respond to the challenges in the operating environment. I will outline here the strategies already in place or being contemplated. The first is to improve our product mix to increase revenue as well as gross margins. Since 2010 the Group has been introducing more products (such as childrens wear, swim wear, casual wear and pajamas) to reduce our dependence on undergarments. In line with this, we are incorporating more design elements to offer original design manufacture. This has deepened our value proposition to existing customers who have increased orders, and attracted the attention of many new customers as we participate in various trade fairs. Indeed, as shareholders would have noticed, our top line has continued to grow amidst the economic uncertainty as has our gross profit, reflecting in part the initial success of this strategy. The second strategy comprises our ongoing efforts to improve operational and financial efficiencies. While this has been ongoing for a while, the year under review marked a major milestone when we completed the construction and fit-out of our new production facility at the Jiangnan High-Tech Information Industrial Zone (JHIIZ) in Quanzhou City in Fujian Province. This new facility which measures 60,000 square meters is significant in that it serves as a major catalyst for us to introduce two key initiatives: A significant increase in capacity which will allow us to reap economies of scale The introduction of lean production methods and practices to significantly improve strategic planning, procurement processes, workflow, productivity while reducing cycle times and production costs. Concurrent with the operational initiatives we are also working hard to improve financial efficiencies, including inventory, cash management and cash conversion cycles.

The third prong of our strategy comprises corporate actions including potential mergers and acquisitions. The dramatic changes in the global garment industry constitute a crisis which offers a major opportunity. While outsourced garment manufacturing to the PRC has taken place for nearly 30 years since the PRCs economic reforms, the next wave of global manufacturing will comprise a combination of vertical integration and much-deeper relationship between end-customer and manufacturers such as Great Group. Allow me to elaborate. Many Western customers have continued to depend on trading houses as intermediaries. But the Eurozone crisis is now leading to a major disintermediation, in which the role of the middleman is reduced as both customers and manufacturers seek to bridge to each other directly. It has, and will, lead to consolidation of weaker manufacturers in the PRC. For Great Group, we have the advantages of size (being one of the largest garment manufacturers in Quanzhou) and a new facility which offers superior value to competitors in terms of modern production methods. To take this strategy further, we will consider acquisitions, investments and alliances with trading companies themselves. The Company is confident that this strategy of disintermediation being executed at a time when Western customers are looking to cut costs further during the current crisis will yield opportunities,
12

increase our sales and marketing network and raise our relationship with customers to a completely new level while improving our own vertical integration. In these three strategies lie the destiny of Great Group. The crisis in the global garment industry offers an exciting opportunity for us to seize. As shareholders are aware, the Group had proposed a dual listing on the London Stock Exchange. However, in view of the weak market conditions in Europe, the Group has decided to delay this proposed dual listing. Acknowledgements On behalf of the Board of Directors, we wish to take this opportunity to record our sincere thanks to so many people who have contributed so much during such a challenging and eventful year. To the many hands who transformed JHIIZ into a reality, all management and staff who have worked so hard, our customers and partners, and our loyal shareholders, we wish to express our sincere appreciation. We look forward to your continued support as we chart an exciting future for Great Group. Mr Weng Wenwei Executive Chairman and CEO

FY2010 FY2011 Contract Manufacturing GRAT.UNIC Superman 88.3% 11.5% 0.2% 91.8% 8.2% Asia Europe North America South America Other Revenue and Gross Profit The Groups revenue increased 8.6% to RMB679.8 million in the financial year ended 31 December 2011 (FY2011) from RMB625.8 million in FY2010. This was mainly attributable to higher sales volume in the first nine months of FY2011 as a result of increased demand for our contract manufacturing products with higher average selling price. Gross profit increased by 11.0% to RMB121.7 million in FY2011 from RMB109.6 million in FY2010. Gross profit margin rose to 17.9% from 17.5%, respectively, largely due to higher gross profit from mens and womens undergarments, partially offset by lower margin of other products. Expenses Selling and distribution expenses increased by RMB8.9 million to RMB17.6 million in FY2011 from RMB8.7 million in FY2010, mainly contributed by increase in marketing and promotional expenses, increase in payroll costs and costs of setting up of retail and flagship stores in Greater Shanghai as well as higher insurance, consulting fees and port charges. Administrative expenses rose by RMB16.1 million to RMB32.2 million in FY2011 from RMB16.1 million in FY2010. This was mainly due to expenses incurred for the proposed dual listing on The London Stock

Exchange. In view of the weak market conditions in Europe, the Group has decided to delay the proposed dual listing. Professional and corporate expenses, staff costs, office rental and expenses as well as depreciation charges had also increased significantly as compared to FY2010. Finance expenses increased by RMB4.1 million to RMB6.6 million in FY2011 from RMB2.5 million in FY2010. This was mainly due to higher bank borrowings and interest rates. Profit Before and After Tax Due to higher selling and distribution expenses and administrative expenses, profit before tax decreased by 23.3% to RMB63.4 million in FY2011 compared to a year ago. Income tax expense increased by 36.9% to RMB10.5 million in FY2011 from RMB7.7 million in FY2010. The effective tax rate of 16.5% in FY2011 was higher than the effective tax rate of 9.3% in FY2010 mainly due to the expiration of tax incentive for a subsidiary. Profit for FY2011 deceased 29.5% to RMB52.9 million from RMB75.1 million in FY2010. Financial Position Cash and cash equivalents decreased by 26.2% to RMB92.3 million as at 31 December 2011 from RMB125.1 million as at 31 December 2010, mainly due to net cash outflows used in investing activities.

14

Trade and other receivables increased by 14.4% to RMB323.2 million as at 31 December 2011 from RMB282.5 million a year ago, due to higher advances to suppliers. Inventories as at 31 December 2011 amounted to RMB57.8 million representing an increase of approximately RMB32.5 million compared to RMB25.3 million as at 31 December 2010. This was mainly due to 1) delay in taking delivery by some of the customers; 2) increase in pre-production raw materials; and 3) higher finished goods for stocking purposes at outlets and flagships stores in Great Shanghai. Due to the additional construction costs for the new factory at Jiangnan Hi-Tech Information Industrial Zone (JHIIZ), property, plant and equipment increased by 124.6% to RMB164.4 million as at 31 December 2011 compared to a year ago. Current liabilities amounted to RMB252.6 million as at 31 December 2011, an increase of RMB95.5 million from RMB157.1 million as at 31 December 2010. This was mainly due to higher borrowings related to construction of the new factory at JHIIZ and increased bills issued to the suppliers. Total shareholders equity increased by 10.2% to RMB411.1 million as at 31 December 2011 from RMB373.2 million as at 31 December 2010, mainly attributable to net profits in FY2011, partially offset by dividends paid to equity holders. Cash Flow Cash and bank balances decreased by RMB51.5 million to RMB61.5 million as at 31 December 2011 compared to a year earlier. The Group continued to generate positive cash flow from operations of RMB20.2 million. Net cash used in investing activities of RMB96.7 million represented payments for new machineries, office equipment and construction of the new JHIIZ factory. Net cash flow from financing activities amounted to RMB24.9 million was mainly of net proceeds from borrowings, partially offset by payment of dividends to equity holders.

The Board currently has five members, comprising two (2) executive directors, one (1) non-independent non-executive director and two (2) independent directors, all of whom have the relevant core competence and diversity of experience to enable them to contribute effectively to the Group. Brief profiles of each Director in office at the date of this Report are set out in pages 20 to 21 of this Annual Report. As at the date of this report, the Board comprises the following members: Weng Wenwei Weng Wenju Teoh Teik Kee Lim Yeow Hua @ Lim You Qin Lee Kim Lian, Juliana Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Executive Director Non-Independent Non-Executive Director Lead Independent Director Independent Director

The Board constantly examines its size and, with a view to determining the impact of the number upon effectiveness, decides on what it considers an appropriate size for itself. 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, adequate for the scale of operations of the Company. In determining the size and composition of the Board, the Board ensures that at least one-third are independent non-executive Directors and that each Director should submit him-/herself for re-nomination and re-election at regular intervals of at least once every three years. The NC had reviewed the independence of the Directors for FY2011 in accordance with the Codes criteria of independence and is of the view that the two non-executive Directors, namely Lim Yeow Hua @ Lim You Qin and Lee Kim Lian, Juliana are independent directors within the meaning of the Code.

Principle 3: Chairman and CEO


Weng Wenwei is the Executive Chairman and CEO. He is responsible for the day-to-day running of the Group as well as the exercise of control of the quality, quantity and timeliness of information flow between the Board and management. The functions of the Chairman and CEO are not separated given the strong element of independence presence on the Board and the scope and nature of the operations of the Group. However, as good corporate governance practice and to ensure that there is no concentration of power and authority vested in one individual, the Group has appointed Lim Yeow Hua @ Lim You Qin as the Lead Independent Director. The Lead Independent Director will be available to the shareholders where they have concerns which cannot be resolved through the normal channels of the Chairman or CEO, or where such contact is not possible or inappropriate. Hence, the Board is of the opinion that sufficient checks and safeguards are in place to ensure that the process of decision making is independent and based on collective decisions without individual exercising any considerable power or influence. As Chairman of the Board, Weng Wenwei bears responsibility for the effective working of the Board. He is responsible for, amongst others, ensuring that Board meetings are held when necessary, setting the Board meeting agenda in consultation with Chief Financial Officer, assisting in ensuring compliance with the Groups guidelines on corporate governance, acting as facilitator at Board meetings and maintaining regular dialogue with the management on all operational matters. The Directors have separate and independent access to the Company Secretary, whose duties include ensuring the Board procedures are followed and that applicable rules and regulations are complied with. The Company Secretary also attends all meetings of the Board and Board Committees. In addition, there is constant communication between Board members and key decisions require approval from all Directors prior to implementation. Besides giving guidance on the corporate direction of the Group, the role of the Chairman includes the scheduling and chairing of Board meetings and controlling of the quality, quantity and timeliness of information supplied to the Board. Weng Wenwei also sets the business strategies and directions for the Group and manages the business operations of the Group.

Managements Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation of financial statements that gives a true and fair view in accordance with the provisions of the Singapore Companies Act (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 evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors 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 entitys preparation of the 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 entitys 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 consolidated financial statements of the Group and the balance sheet of the Company are properly drawn up in accordance with the provisions of the Act and Singapore Financial Reporting Standards so as to give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Group and of the Company as at 31 December 2011, and the results, changes in equity and cash flows of the Group for the financial year ended on that date.

CORPORATE INFORMATION

2.1

Basis of preparation These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Singapore Financial Reporting Standards (FRS). The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except as disclosed in the accounting policies below. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with FRS requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Groups accounting policies. It also requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates and assumptions. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements, are disclosed in Note 3. Interpretations and amendments to published standards effective in 2011 On 1 January 2011, the Group adopted the new or amended FRS and Interpretations to FRS (INT FRS) that are mandatory for application from that date. Changes to the Groups accounting policies have been made as required, in accordance with the transitional provisions in the respective FRS and INT FRS. The adoption of these new or amended FRS and INT FRS did not result in substantial changes to the Groups and Companys accounting policies and had no material effect on the amounts reported for the current or prior financial years.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

2.2

Group accounting (a) Subsidiaries (i) Consolidation Subsidiaries are entities (including special purpose entities) over which the Group has power to govern the financial and operating policies, generally accompanied by a shareholding giving rise to a majority of the voting rights. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Group controls another entity. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are de-consolidated from the date on which control ceases. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between group entities are eliminated. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

2.2

Group accounting (contd) (a) Subsidiaries (contd) (ii) Acquisitions The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for business combinations by the Group, except for business combination under common control. For business combinations under acquisition method of accounting, the consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary comprises the fair value of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred and the equity interests issued by the Group. The consideration transferred also includes the fair value of any contingent consideration arrangement and the fair values of any pre-existing equity interest in the subsidiary. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD)

Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are, with limited exceptions, measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. On an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, the Group recognises any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at the date of acquisition either at fair value or at the non-controlling interests proportionate share of the acquirees net identifiable assets. The excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Acquisition of entities under common control have been accounted for using the pooling-ofinterest method. Under this method: The financial statement of the Group have been prepared as if the Group structure immediately after the transaction has been in existence since the earliest date the entities are under common control; The assets and liabilities are brought into the financial statements at their existing carrying amounts from the perspective of the controlling party; The income statements includes the results of the acquired entities since the earliest date the entities are under common control; The comparative figures of the Group represent the income statement, statement of comprehensive income, statements of cash flows and statement of changes in equity have been prepared as if the combination had occurred from the date when the combining entities or businesses first came under common control; The cost of investment is recorded at the aggregate of the nominal value of the equity shares issued, cash and cash equivalents and fair values of other consideration; and On consolidation, the difference between the cost of investment and the nominal value of the share capital of the merged subsidiaries is taken to restructuring reserve. Cash paid/payable arising from the acquisition under common control is also taken to the restructuring reserve.

Group accounting (contd) (a) Subsidiaries (contd) (iii) Disposals When a change in the Group ownership interest in a subsidiary results in a loss of control over the subsidiary, the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary including any goodwill are derecognised. Amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are also reclassified to profit or loss or transferred directly to retained earnings if required by a specific Standard. Any retained equity interest in the entity is remeasured at fair value. The difference between the carrying amount of the retained interest at the date when control is lost and its fair value is recognised in profit or loss. Please refer to the paragraph Investments in subsidiaries for the accounting policy on investments in subsidiaries in the separate financial statements of the Company.

2.3

Revenue recognition Sales comprise the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods in the ordinary course of the Groups activities. Sales are presented, net of value-added tax, rebates and discounts, and after eliminating sales within the Group. The Group recognises revenue when the amount of revenue and related cost can be reliably measured, when it is probable that the collectability of the related receivables is reasonably assured and when the specific criteria for each of the Groups activities are met as follows: (a) Sale of goods Revenue from sale of goods is recognised when the Group has delivered the products to its customers, the customers have accepted the products and the recoverability of the related receivables is reasonably assured. Interest income Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method.

(b) 2.4

Property, plant and equipment (a) Measurement (i) Leasehold buildings and workshops Leasehold buildings and workshops are initially recognised at cost, and subsequently carried at the cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. (ii) Other property, plant and equipment All other items of property, plant and equipment are initially recognised at cost and subsequently carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Components of costs The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment initially recognised includes its purchase price and any cost that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. Cost also includes borrowing costs (refer to Note 2.6 on borrowing costs).

Property, plant and equipment (contd) (b) Depreciation Construction in-progress is not depreciated. Depreciation on other items of property, plant and equipment is calculated on a straight-line method to allocate their depreciable amounts over their estimated useful lives as follows: Machinery and equipment Leasehold buildings and workshops Furniture & fitting and office equipment Motor vehicles Useful lives 5-10 years 20-50 years 3-5 years 5 years

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD)

The residual values, estimated useful lives and depreciation method of property, plant and equipment are reviewed, and adjusted as appropriate, at each balance sheet date. The effects of any revision are recognised in profit or loss when the changes arise. (c) Subsequent expenditure Subsequent expenditure relating to property, plant and equipment that has already been recognised is added to the carrying amount of the asset only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repair and maintenance expenses are recognised in the profit or loss when incurred. Disposal On disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and its carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss within other losses, net.

(d)

2.5

Intangible assets (a) Land-use rights Land-use rights are initially recognised at cost and are subsequently carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. These costs are amortised to profit or loss using the straight-line method over 50 years, which is the shorter of the estimated useful lives and periods of contractual rights. (b) Acquired computer software licenses Acquired computer software licenses are initially capitalised at cost which includes the purchase price (net of any discounts and rebates) and other directly attributable cost of preparing the asset for its intended use. Direct expenditure including employee costs, which enhances or extends the performance of computer software beyond its specifications and which can be reliably measured, is added to the original cost of the software. Costs associated with maintaining the computer software are recognised as an expense when incurred. Computer software licenses are subsequently carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. These costs are amortised to profit or loss using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of five years. The amortisation period and amortisation method of intangible assets are reviewed at least at each balance sheet date. The effects of any revision are recognised in profit or loss when the changes arise.

2.6

Borrowing costs Borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method except to the extent that they are capitalised. Borrowing costs are capitalised if they were directly attributable to acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets. Capitalising of borrowing costs commences when the activities to prepare the asset for its intended use or sale are in progress and the expenditure and borrowing costs are being incurred. Borrowing costs are capitalised until the assets are ready for their intended use or sale. Borrowing costs on general borrowings are capitalised by applying a capitalisation rate to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets that are financed by general borrowings.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD)

2.7

Investments in subsidiaries Investments in subsidiaries are carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses in the Companys balance sheet. On disposal of investments in subsidiaries, the difference between disposal proceeds and the carrying amounts of the investments are recognised in profit or loss. Impairment of non-financial assets Property, plant and equipment Intangible assets Investments in subsidiaries Property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and investments in subsidiaries are tested for impairment whenever there is any objective evidence or indication that these assets may be impaired. For the purpose of impairment testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets. If this is the case, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating-unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs. If the recoverable amount of the asset (or CGU) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or CGU) is reduced to its recoverable amount. The difference between the carrying amount and recoverable amount is recognised as an impairment loss in profit or loss. An impairment loss for an asset is reversed if, and only if, there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the assets recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. The carrying amount of an asset is increased to its revised recoverable amount, provided that this amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of any accumulated amortisation or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. A reversal of impairment loss for an asset is recognised in profit or loss.

2.9

Financial assets (a) Classification The Group classifies its financial assets in the following categories: loans and receivables. The classification depends on the nature of the assets and the purpose for which the assets were acquired. (i) Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are presented as current assets, except for those expected to be realised later than 12 months after the balance sheet date which are presented as non-current assets. Loans and receivables are presented as trade and other receivables (Note 12) and cash and cash equivalents (Note 11) on the balance sheet.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD)

(b)

Recognition and derecognition Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on trade date the date on which the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or have been transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership. On disposal of a financial asset, the difference between the carrying amount and the sale proceeds is recognised in profit or loss. Any amount in other comprehensive income relating to that asset is reclassified to profit or loss. Trade receivables that are factored out to banks and other financial institutions with recourse to the Group are not derecognised until the recourse period has expired and the risks and rewards of the receivables have been fully transferred. The corresponding cash received from the financial institutions is recorded as borrowings.

(c) (d) (e)

Initial measurement Financial assets are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs. Subsequent measurement Loans and receivables are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Impairment The Group assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired and recognises an allowance for impairment when such evidence exists. (i) Loans and receivables Significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy, and default or significant delay in payments are objective evidence that these financial assets are impaired. The carrying amount of these assets is reduced through the use of an impairment allowance account which is calculated as the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate. When the asset becomes uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are recognised against the same line item in profit or loss.

2.9

Financial assets (contd) (e) Impairment (contd) (i) Loans and receivables (contd) The impairment allowance is reduced through profit or loss in a subsequent period when the amount of impairment loss decreases and the related decrease can be objectively measured. The carrying amount of the asset previously impaired is increased to the extent that the new carrying amount does not exceed the amortised cost had no impairment been recognised in prior periods. Inventories Inventories are carried at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined using the weighted average method. The cost of finished goods and work-in-progress comprises raw materials, direct labour, other direct costs and related production overheads (based on normal operating capacity) but excludes borrowing costs. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and applicable variable selling expenses. Trade and other payables Trade and other payables represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of financial year which are unpaid. They are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer). If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade and other payables are initially recognised at fair value, and subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

2.12

Borrowings Borrowings are presented as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date, in which case they are presented as non-current liabilities. Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value (net of transaction costs) and subsequently carried at amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.

2.13

Employee compensation Employee benefits are recognised as an expense, unless the cost qualifies to be capitalised as an asset. (a) Defined contribution plans Defined contribution plans are post-employment benefit plans under which the Group pays fixed contributions into separate entities such as the Central Provident Fund on a mandatory, contractual or voluntary basis. The Group has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid. Pension benefits The Group is required to provide certain staff pension benefits to their employees under existing PRC regulations. Pension contributions are provided at rates stipulated by PRC regulations and are contributed to a pension fund managed by government agencies, which are responsible for administering these amounts for the subsidiaries employees. The Group has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid. Pension contributions are recognised as expenses in the period in which the related services are performed.

Leases When the Group is the lessee:

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD)

The Group leases factories and offices under the operating leases from non-related parties. Operating leases Leases where substantially all risks and rewards incidental to ownership are retained by the lessors are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease. Contingent rents are recognised as an expense in profit or loss when incurred. When an operating lease is terminated before the lease period has expired, any payment required to be made to the lessor by way of penalty is recognised as an expense in the financial year in which termination takes place. 2.15 Income taxes Current income tax for current and prior periods is recognised at the amount expected to be paid to or recovered from the tax authorities, using the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred income tax is recognised for all temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements except when the deferred income tax arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss at the time of the transaction. A deferred income tax liability is recognised on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries, except where the Group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. A deferred income tax asset is recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and tax losses can be utilised. Deferred income tax is measured: (i) at the tax rates that are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date; and (ii) based on the tax consequence that will follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the balance sheet date, to recover or settle the carrying amounts of its assets and liabilities except for investment properties.

Current and deferred income taxes are recognised as income or expense in profit or loss, except to the extent that the tax arises from a business combination or a transaction which is recognised directly in equity. Deferred tax arising from a business combination is adjusted against goodwill on acquisition. 2.16 Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is more likely than not that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount has been reliably estimated.

2.17

Currency translation (a) Functional and presentation currency Items included in the financial statements of each entity in the Group are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (functional currency). The financial statements are presented in Renminbi (RMB), which is the functional currency of the Company. (b) Transactions and balances Transactions in a currency other than the functional currency (foreign currency) are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Currency translation differences resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the closing rates at the balance sheet date are recognised in profit or loss. However, in the consolidated financial statements, currency translation differences arising from borrowings in foreign currencies and other currency instruments designated and qualifying as net investment hedges and net investment in foreign operations, are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the currency translation reserve. When a foreign operation is disposed of or any borrowings forming part of the net investment of the foreign operation are repaid, a proportionate share of the accumulated translation differences is reclassified to profit or loss, as part of the gain or loss on disposal. Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings are presented in the income statement within finance cost. All other foreign exchange gains and losses impacting profit or loss are presented in the income statement within other losses net. Non-monetary items measured at fair values in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair values are determined. (c) Translation of Group entities financial statements The results and financial position of all the Group entities (none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows: (i) (ii) Assets and liabilities are translated at the closing exchange rates at the reporting date; Income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates (unless the average is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions); and All resulting currency translation differences are recognised in the comprehensive income and accumulated in the currency translation reserve.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD)

(iii)

Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of foreign operations are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operations and translated at the closing rates at the reporting date. 2.18 Cash and cash equivalents For the purpose of presentation in the consolidated cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and deposits with financial institutions which are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

Share capital Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of new ordinary shares are deducted against the share capital account. When any entity within the Group purchases the Companys ordinary share (Treasury Share), the consideration paid including any directly attributable incremental cost is presented as a component within equity holders, until they are cancelled, sold or reissued. When treasury shares are subsequently cancelled, the cost of treasury shares are deducted against the share capital account if the shares are purchased out of capital of the Company, or against the retained profits of the Company if the shares are purchased out of earnings of the Company. When treasury shares are subsequently sold or reissued pursuant to an employee share option scheme, the cost of treasury shares is reversed from the treasury share account and the realised gain or loss on sales or reissue new of any directly attributable incremental transaction costs and related income tax, is recognised in the capital reserve.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD)

2.20 2.21

Dividends to Companys shareholders Dividends to the Companys shareholders are recognised when the dividends are approved for payment. Government grants Grants from the government are recognised as a receivable at their fair value when there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and the Group will comply with all the attached conditions. Government grants receivable are recognised as income over the periods necessary to match them with the related costs which they are intended to compensate, on a systematic basis. Government grants relating to expenses are shown separately as other income. Government grants relating to assets are presented in the balance sheet as a deferred income, and amortised to profit or loss on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the relevant assets.

2.22

Fair value estimation of financial assets and liabilities The fair values of current financial assets and liabilities carried at amortised cost approximate their carrying amounts. The fair values of currency forwards are determined using actively quoted forward exchange rates.

2.23

Segment reporting Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker. The chief operating decision-maker has been identified as the Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) who makes strategic decisions. Derivative financial instruments Derivative financial instruments comprise mainly of currency forward contracts. A derivative financial instrument is initially recognised at its fair value on the date the contract is entered into and is subsequently carried at its fair value. The method of recognising the resulting gain or loss depends on whether the derivative is designated as a hedging instrument, and if so, the nature of the item being hedged. Fair value changes on derivatives that are not designated or do not qualify for hedge accounting are recognised in profit or loss or when the changes arise.

Derivative financial instruments (contd) Derivative financial instruments are reported in the financial statements on a net basis where legal right of setoff exists. Derivative financial instruments are carried as assets when fair value is positive and as liabilities when fair value is negative.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTD)

Estimates, assumptions and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or area where estimates and assumptions are significant to the financial statements are disclosed below.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES, ASSUMPTIONS AND JUDGEMENTS

(a)

Impairment of loans and receivables Management reviews its loans and receivables for objective evidence of impairment at least annually. Significant financial difficulties of the debtor, the probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy, and default or significant delay in payments are considered objective evidence that a receivable is impaired. In determining this, management makes judgements as to whether there is observable date indicating that there has been a significant change in the payment ability of the debtor, or whether there have been significant changes with adverse effect in the market, economic or legal environment in which the debtor operates in. Where there is objective evidence of impairment, management makes judgements as to whether an impairment loss should be recognised in profit or loss. The carrying amounts of trade and other receivables at the balance sheet date are disclosed in Note 12. If the net present values of estimated cash flows increase/decrease by 10% (2010: 10%) from managements estimates for all past due loans and receivables, the Groups allowance for impairment will decrease/ increase by RMB2,870,000 (2010: RMB645,000).

(b)

Income taxes The Group is subject to income tax in the PRC and signicant judgement is required in determining the provision for tax. There are transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. The Group recognises provisions for tax based on estimates of the taxes that are likely to become due. Where the nal tax outcome is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the current income tax in the period in which such determination is made. Useful lives of machinery and equipment The cost of machinery and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their useful lives, which management estimates to be of 5 to 10 years. The Group reviews the residual values and useful lives of plant and machinery at each reporting date in accordance with the accounting policies in Note 2.4. The estimation of the residual values and useful lives involves significant judgements. The carrying amounts of the Groups machinery and equipment as at 31 December 2011 were RMB9,031,000 (2010: RMB9,339,000). If the actual useful lives of these plant and equipment differ by 1 year from management estimates, the carrying amount of the plant and equipment will be increased by RMB726,000 (2010: RMB590,000) or decreased by RMB819,000 (2010: RMB657,000) and correspondingly to profit or loss.

Deferred income tax assets are recognised for tax losses carried forward to the extent that realisation of the related tax benefits through future taxable profits is probable. The Group has unrecognised tax losses of approximately RMB6,828,000 (2010: RMB5,974,000) which can be carried forward and used to offset against future taxable income subject to meeting certain statutory requirements. The tax losses have no expiry date and are not recognised as it is not probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the subsidiaries can utilise the benefits.

Financial risk factors The Groups activities expose it to market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Groups overall risk management strategy seeks to minimise adverse effects from the unpredictability of financial markets on the Groups financial performance.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Board of Directors is responsible for setting the objectives and underlying principles of financial risk management for the Group. This includes establishing policies such as authority levels, oversight responsibilities, risk identification and measurement and exposure limits.
(a) Market risk (i) Currency risk The Group operates in the Peoples Republic of China with most of the transactions settled in RMB. However, the Group sells to overseas customers in United States Dollars (USD) and is therefore exposed to currency risk. To manage the currency risk, the Group enters into currency forwards with local banks.

The Groups risk management policy is to hedge between 30% to 50% of highly probable forecast transactions (mainly export sales and collection in USD) in the next three to twelve months. The management monitors the requirement to enter into currency forward agreements based on the current exchange rates between USD and RMB by considering the quotation from local banks, past trends and anticipated fluctuation in the exchange rates and current PRC and world market conditions.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTD)

Market risk (contd) (ii) Cash flow and fair value interest rate risks Cash flow interest rate risk is the risk that the future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. Fair value interest rate risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. The Groups interest rate risk mainly arises from bank loans at fixed interest rates. The Group manages its interest rate risk by keeping bank loans to the minimum required to sustain the operations of the Group. If the interest rates increase/decrease by 1% (2010: 1%) with all other variables including tax rate being held constant, the impact to the net profit as a result of higher/lower interest expense on these borrowings is assessed as being not material.

(b)

Credit risk Credit risk refers to the risk that counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. For trade receivables, the Group adopts the policy of dealing only with customers of appropriate credit history, and obtaining cash deposits where appropriate to mitigate credit risk. For other financial assets, the Group adopts the policy of dealing only with high credit quality counterparties.

Credit exposure to an individual counterparty is restricted by credit limits and terms that are approved by the Chief Executive Officer (CEO). In assessing the credit limits and terms granted, the Group considers the nature of the contract, creditworthiness, payment history and the relationship with the customers. In order to manage the credit risk, the Group purchase insurance from reputable insurance companies in the PRC. As the Group does not hold any collateral, the maximum exposure to credit risk for each class of financial instruments is the carrying amount of that class of financial instruments presented on the balance sheet. The Groups major classes of financial assets are trade receivables, advances to suppliers and cash and cash equivalents. The trade receivables of the Group comprise 2 debtors (2010: 3 debtors) that individually represented 20 25% of trade receivables.

Capital risk The Groups objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Groups ability to continue as a going concern and to maintain an optimal capital structure so as to maximise shareholder value. In order to maintain or achieve an optimal capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividend payment, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares, buy back issued shares, obtain new borrowings or sell assets to reduce borrowings. Management monitors capital based on a gearing ratio. The Group and the Company are not required by the banks to maintain financial ratios. The Group and the Company target to maintain gearing ratios within 20% to 45% respectively. The gearing ratio is calculated as net debt divided by total capital. Net debt is calculated as borrowings plus trade and other payables less cash and cash equivalents. Total capital is calculated as equity plus net debt.

The fair value of currency forward contracts is determined using quoted forward currency rates at the balance sheet date. This investment is classified as Level 2. The fair values of current financial assets and liabilities carried at amortised cost approximate their carrying amounts. The carrying amount of financial instruments is as disclosed on the balance sheet and Note 15 to the financial statements.
