Principle 7: Procedures for developing remuneration Policies
There should be a formal and transparent procedure for developing policy on executive remuneration and for fixing the remuneration packages of individual directors. No director should be involved in deciding his own remuneration.
Principle 8: Level and Mix of remuneration
The level of remuneration should be appropriate to attract, retain and motivate the directors needed to run the company successfully but companies should avoid paying more than is necessary for this purpose. A significant proportion of executive directors’ remuneration should be structured so as to link rewards to corporate and individual performance.
Principle 9: disclosure on remuneration
Each company should provide clear disclosure of its remuneration policy, level and mix of remuneration and the procedure for setting remuneration in the company’s annual report. It should provide disclosure in relation to its remuneration policies to enable investors to understand the link between remuneration paid to directors and key executives, and performance.

reportonthefinancialstatements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Silverlake Axis Ltd. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the Group), set out on pages 33 to 112, which comprise the statement of financial positions of the Group and the Company as at 30 June 2011, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated income statement, consolidated statement of comprehensive income and consolidated statement of cash flows of the Group for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Management’s responsibility for the financial statements
Management is responsible for the preparation of consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with 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 consolidated income statement and statements of financial positions to maintain accountability of assets.
Auditors’ responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with International 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 consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of risks of material misstatement of the consolidated 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 the consolidated 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 the management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated 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 statement of financial positions of the Company are properly drawn up in accordance with the 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 30 June 2011 and the results, changes in equity and cash flows of the Group for the year ended on that date.
othermatters
This report is made solely to the members of the Company, as a body, and for no other purpose. We do not assume responsibility to any other person for the content of this report.

2. significantaccountingpolicies 2.1 basisofpreparation
The consolidated financial statements of the Group and the statement of financial position of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Singapore Financial Reporting Standards (FRS).
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost basis, except as disclosed in the summary of significant accounting policies below.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with FRS requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group’s 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 2.5.
2.2 changesinaccountingpolicies
The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year except in the financial year, the Group has adopted all the new and revised standards and interpretations of FRS (INT FRS) that are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2010. The adoption of these standards did not have any effect on the financial performance or position of the Group and the Company.

Except for the revised FRS 24, the directors expects that the adoption of the other standards and interpretations above will have no material impact on the financial statements in the period of initial application. The nature of the impending changes in accounting policy on the adoption of the revised FRS 24 is described below:
Amendments to FrS 24 related Party Disclosures The revised FRS 24 clarifies the definition of a related party to simplify the identification of such relationships and to eliminate
inconsistencies in its application. The revised FRS 24 expands the definition of a related party and would treat two entities as related to each other whenever a person (or a close member of that person’s family) or a third party has control or joint control over the entity, or has significant influence over the entity. The revised standard also introduces a partial exemption of disclosure requirements for government-related entities. The Group is currently determining the impact of the changes to the definition of a related party has on the disclosure of related party transaction. As this is a disclosure standard, it will have no impact on the financial position or financial performance of the Group when implemented in 2012.
2.4summaryofsignificantaccountingpolicies
(a) Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries as at the reporting date. The financial statements of the subsidiaries used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are prepared for the same reporting date as the Company. Consistent accounting policies are applied to like transactions and events in similar circumstances.
Acquisitions of subsidiaries are accounted for by applying the purchase method. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. Adjustments to those fair values relating to previously held interests are treated as a revaluation and recognised in other comprehensive income. The cost of a business combination is measured as the aggregate of the fair values, at the date of exchange, of the assets given, liabilities and contingent liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity instruments issued, plus any costs directly attributable to the business combination.

2.4summaryofsignificantaccountingpolicies(cont’d)
(a) Basis of consolidation (cont’d)
Any excess of the cost of business combination over the Group’s share in the net fair value of the acquired subsidiary’s identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill in the statement of financial positions. The accounting policy for goodwill is set out in Note 2.4(d)(i). Any excess of the Group’s share in the net fair value of the acquired subsidiary’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over the cost of business combination is recognised as income in the income statement on the date of acquisition.
Business combinations involving entities under common control are accounted for by applying the pooling of interest method. The assets and liabilities of the combining entities are reflected at their carrying amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements of the controlling holding company. Any difference between the consideration paid and the share capital of the “acquired” ’entity is reflected within equity as merger reserve. The statement of comprehensive income reflects the results of the combining entities for the full year, irrespective of when the combination takes place. Comparatives are presented as if the entities have always been combined since the date the entities had come under common control.
Expenditure incurred in relation to a common control combination is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred. Such expenditure includes professional fees, registration fees and all other incidental expenses.
Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group to the date on which that control ceases. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between group companies are eliminated; unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to ensure consistency of accounting policies with those of the Group.
The Company’s accounting policy on investments in subsidiaries is as disclosed in Note 2.4(e).
Non-controlling interests represent the portion of profit or loss and net assets in subsidiaries not held by the Group and are presented separately in the income statement of the Group and within equity in the consolidated statements of financial position, separately from parent shareholders’ equity. Transactions with non-controlling interests are accounted for using the entity concept method, whereby, transactions with non-controlling interests are accounted for as transactions with owners. On acquisition of non-controlling interests, the difference between the consideration and book value of the share of the net assets acquired is recognised directly in equity. Gain or loss on disposal to non-controlling interests is recognised directly in equity.
Changes in the Company owners’ ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions. In such circumstances, the carrying amounts of the controlling and non-controlling interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiary. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interest is adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognised directly in equity and attributed to owners of the parent.
(b) Associates
An associate is an entity, not being a subsidiary or a joint venture, in which the Group has significant influence. An associate is equity accounted for from the date the Group obtains significant influence until the date the Group ceases to have significant influence over the associate.

2. significantaccountingpolicies(cont’d)
2.4summaryofsignificantaccountingpolicies(cont’d)
(b) Associates (cont’d)
The Group’s investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method. Under the equity method, the investments in associates are measured in the statement of financial position at cost plus post-acquisition changes in the Group’s share of net assets of the associates. Goodwill relating to associates is included in the carrying amount of the investment. Any excess of the Group’s share of the net fair value of the associate’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over the cost of the investment is excluded from the carrying amount of the investment and is instead included as income in the determination of the Group’s share of the associate’s profit or loss for the period in which the investment is acquired.
When the Group’s share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.
After application of the equity method, the Group determines whether it is necessary to recognise an additional impairment loss on the Group’s investments in its associates. The Group determines at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that the investment in the associate is impaired. If this is the case, the Group calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the associate and its carrying value and recognises the amount in the income statement.
The financial statements of the associates are prepared as of the same reporting date as the Company. Where necessary, adjustments are made to bring the accounting policies in line with those of the Group.
Unrealised gains on transactions between the Group and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the associates. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of the associates have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the accounting policies adopted by the Group.
The Company’s accounting policy on investments in associates is as disclosed in Note 2.4(e).
(c) Property, plant and equipment
(i) Measurement
Land Land is initially recognised at cost. Freehold land is subsequently carried at cost less accumulated impairment
losses.
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 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.

(c) Property, plant and equipment (cont’d)
(ii) Depreciation
Freehold land has unlimited useful life and therefore is not depreciated. Depreciation on other items of property, plant and equipment is calculated using the straight line method to allocate their depreciable amounts over their estimated useful lives. The principal annual depreciation rates are as follows:
Office premises 4% Furniture and fittings 15% Motor vehicles 15% Office equipment 15% - 20%
The residual values, estimated useful lives and depreciation method of property, plant and equipment are reviewed, and adjusted as appropriate, at each financial reporting date. The effects of any revision are recognised in the income statement when the changes arise.
(iii) 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 cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repair and maintenance expense is recognised in the income statement when incurred.
(iv) Disposal
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss on derecognition of the asset is included in the income statement in the year the asset is derecognised.
(d) Intangible assets
(i) Goodwill
Goodwill is initially measured at cost. Following initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses.
For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired is allocated, from the acquisition date, to each of the Group’s cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.
The cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually and whenever there is an indication that the cash-generating unit may be impaired, by comparing the carrying amount of the cash-generating unit, including the allocated goodwill, with the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit. Where the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised in the income statement. Impairment losses recognised for goodwill are not reversed in subsequent periods.

(i) Goodwill (cont’d)
Where goodwill forms part of a cash-generating unit and part of the operation within that cash-generating unit is disposed of, the goodwill associated with the operation disposed of is included in the carrying amount of the operation when determining the gain or loss on disposal of the operation. Goodwill disposed of in this circumstance is measured based on the relative fair values of the operations disposed of and the portion of the cash-generating unit retained.
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of foreign operation on or after 1 January 2006 are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operations and are recorded in the functional currency of the foreign operations and translated in accordance with the accounting policy set out in Note 2.4(k).
Goodwill and fair value adjustments which arose on acquisitions of foreign operation before 1 January 2006 are deemed to be assets and liabilities of the Company and are recorded in RM at the rates prevailing at the date of acquisition.
(ii) Software development expenditure
Software development expenditure represents cost incurred on software development and is capitalised and amortised using the straight line method over their estimated useful lives (to the maximum of 10 years). Costs directly attributable to the development of computer software are capitalised as software development expenditure only when:
•technical feasibility of the project is demonstrated;•the Group has an intention and ability to complete and use the software; and•the costs can be measured reliably.
Software development expenditure comprises purchased software, manpower and related overhead costs incurred directly in the development of computer software.
The principal annual amortisation rate is 10% to 20%.
Costs incurred in the development of software which are not or have ceased to be commercially viable are written off in that financial year to the Group income statements.
The policy for recognition and measurement of impairment losses is in accordance with Note 2.4(o).
(iii) Other intangible assets
Other intangible assets acquired separately are measured initially at cost. The cost of other intangible assets acquired in a business combination is their fair value as at the date of acquisition. Following initial acquisition, other intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses.

(d) Intangible assets (cont’d)
(iii) Other intangible assets (cont’d)
Other intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortised over the estimated useful lives and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortisation period and the amortisation method are reviewed at least at each financial year end. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset is accounted for by changing the amortisation period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortisation expense on other intangible assets with finite lives is recognised in the income statement.
The principal annual amortisation rate is 10%.
Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in income statement when the asset is derecognised.
(e) Investments in subsidiaries and associates
Investments in subsidiaries and associates are carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses in the Company’s statement of financial position. Where an indication of impairment exists, the carrying amounts of the investments are assessed and written down immediately to its recoverable amount. The policy for recognition and measurement of impairment losses is in accordance with Note 2.4(o).
On disposal of investments in subsidiaries and associates, the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amounts of the investments are recognised in the Company’s income statement.
(f) Income recognition on contracts
Contract revenue and contract costs are recognised as revenue and expenses respectively by reference to the stage of completion of the contract activity at the financial reporting date, when the outcome of a contract can be estimated reliably. When the outcome of a contract cannot be estimated reliably, contract revenue is recognised to the extent of contract costs incurred that are likely to be recoverable and contract costs are recognised as expense in the period in which they are incurred. An expected loss on the contract is recognised as an expense immediately when it is probable that total contract costs will exceed total revenue.
Contract revenue comprises the initial amount of revenue agreed in the contract and variations in the contract work and claims to the extent that it is probable that they will result in revenue and they are capable of being reliably measured.
The stage of completion is determined by reference to the proportion that contract costs incurred for work performed to date bear to the estimated total contract costs. Contract costs include staff costs, allowances and other directly attributed costs.

(g) Financial assets
Financial assets are recognised in the statements of financial position when, and only when, the Group and the Company become a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument.
When financial assets are recognised initially, they are measured at fair value, plus, in the case of financial assets not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction costs.
All regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised or derecognised on trade date, i.e. the date that the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Regular way purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the period generally established by regulation or convention in the marketplace concerned.
Loans and receivables
Financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market are classified as loans and receivables.
Subsequent to initial recognition, loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Gains and losses are recognised in income statement when the loans and receivables are derecognised or impaired, and through the amortisation process.
(h) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, bank balances and deposits held at call with financial institutions that are readily convertible to known amount of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
(i) Income taxes
a) Current tax
Current tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.
Current taxes are recognised in the income statement except to the extent that the tax relates to items recognised outside the income statement, either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.
b) Deferred tax
Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for all temporary differences, except:
• where the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and

b) Deferred tax (cont’d)
• in respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates, where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
• in respect of deductible temporary differences and carry-forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses, if it is not probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and carry-forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax assets to be utilised.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Deferred tax relating to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss. Deferred tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity and deferred tax arising from a business combination is adjusted against goodwill on acquisition.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset, if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.
c) Sales tax
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of sales tax except:
• Where the sales tax incurred on a purchase of assets or services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the sales tax is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable; and
• Receivables and payables that are stated with the amount of sales tax included.
The net amount of sales tax recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the statement of financial positions.
(j) revenue recognition
Revenue comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods and rendering of services in the ordinary course of the Group’s activities.

(j) revenue recognition (cont’d)
The Group recognises revenue when the amount of revenue and related cost can be reliably measured, when it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity and when the specific criteria for each of the Group’s activities are met as follows:
(i) Licensing of Silverlake Axis Integrated Banking Solution (“SIBS”)
Revenue from licensing of SIBS is recognised when there are no remaining obligations in accordance with the substance of the agreement. When there are no obligations subsequent to the delivery of the software source codes and the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred, license fees is recognised upon transfer of title to the customer, which takes place after delivery and customer acceptance.
(ii) Customised software solutions
Revenue relating to rendering of customised software solutions services is accounted for under the percentage of completion method. The stage of completion is measured by reference to the actual cost for work performed to date to the estimated total costs for each contract. Please refer to Note 2.4(f) for further details.
(iii) Sale of software and hardware products
Revenue relating to sale of software and hardware products is recognised upon delivery of products and customer acceptance, net of discounts.
(iv) Maintenance and enhancement services
Revenue on maintenance and enhancement services is recognised over the contractual period or performance of services.
(v) Interest income
Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method.
(vi) Dividend income
Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive payment is established.
(vii) Commission income
Commission income is recognised as earned when the right to receive the commission is established.
(k) Currency translation
(i) 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 Ringgit Malaysia, which is the Company’s functional currency.

(k) Currency translation (cont’d)
(ii) 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 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 financial reporting date are recognised in the income statement, unless they arise from borrowings in foreign currencies and qualifying as net investment in foreign operations. Those currency translation differences are recognised in the currency translation reserve in the consolidated financial statements and transferred to the income statement as part of the gain or loss on disposal of the foreign operations.
(iii) translation of the Group entities’ financial statements
The results and financial position of all the Group entities that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
• Assets and liabilities are translated at the closing exchange rates at the date of the statement of financial positions;
• 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 taken to the foreign currency translation reserve within equity.
(l) Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities within the scope of FRS 39 are recognised on the statement of financial position when, and only when, the Group becomes party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument.
Financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value, plus, in the case of the financial liabilities other than derivatives, directly attributable transaction costs.
Subsequent to initial recognition, all financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, except for derivatives which are measured at fair value.
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is extinguished. For financial liabilities other than derivatives, gains and losses are recognised in the income statement when the liabilities are derecognised, and through the amortisation process. Any gains or losses arising from changes in fair value of derivatives are recognised in the income statement. Net gains or losses on derivatives include exchange differences.

(m) Leases
The determination of whether an arrangement is, or contains a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement at inception date: whether fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets or the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset, even if that right is not explicitly specified in an arrangement.
For arrangements entered into prior to 1 January 2005, the date of inception is deemed to be 1 January 2005 in accordance with the transitional requirements of INT FRS 104.
(i) As lessee
Finance leases which transfer to the Group substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the leased item, are capitalised at the inception of the lease at the fair value of the leased asset or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. Any initial direct costs are also added to the amount capitalised. Lease payments are apportioned between the finance charges and reduction of the lease liabilitiy so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are charged to profit or loss. Contingent rents, if any, are charged as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred.
Capitalised leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset and the lease term, if there is no reasonable certainty that the Group will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term.
Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The aggregate benefit of incentives provided by the lessor is recognised as a reduction of rental expense over the lease term on a straight-line basis.
(ii) As lessor
Leases where the Group retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset are classified as operating leases. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised over the lease term on the same bases as rental income. Contingent rents are recognised as revenue in the period in which they are earned.
(n) Employee benefits
(i) Defined contribution plans
Defined contribution plans are post-employment benefit plans under which the Group pays fixed contributions into separate entities such as the Employees’ Provident Fund on a mandatory basis. The Group has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid. The Group’s contributions are recognised as employee compensation expense in the period in which the related service is performed, unless they can be capitalised as an asset.

2.4summaryofsignificantaccountingpolicies(cont’d)
(n) Employee benefits (cont’d)
(ii) Defined benefit plans
The cost of providing benefits under the defined benefit plans is determined separately for each plan using the projected unit credit method. All actuarial gains and losses for all the defined benefit plans are recognised in other comprehensive income in the period in which they arise. Such actuarial gains and losses are also immediately recognised in retained earnings and are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods.
The past service costs are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the average period until the benefits become vested. If the benefits are already vested, immediately following the introduction of, or changes to, a pension plan, past service costs are recognised immediately.
The defined benefit asset or liability is the aggregate of the present value of the defined benefit obligation (derived using a discount rate based on high quality corporate bonds) at the end of the reporting period plus any actuarial gains (less any actuarial losses) not recognised, reduced by past service costs not yet recognised and the fair value of plan assets out of which the obligations are to be settled directly. If such aggregate is negative, the asset is measured at the lower of such aggregate or the aggregate of cumulative unrecognised net actuarial losses and past service costs and the present value of any economics benefits available in the form of refunds from the plan or reductions in the future contributions to the plan.
If the asset is measured at the aggregate of cumulative unrecognised net actuarial losses and past service costs and the present value of any economic benefits available in the form of refunds from the plan or reductions in the future contributions to the plan:
• Net actuarial losses of the current period and past service costs of the current period are recognised immediately to the extent that they exceed any reduction in the present value of those economics benefits, the entire net actuarial losses of the current period and past service costs of the current period are recognised immediately.
• Net actuarial gains of the current period after the reduction of past service costs of the current period exceeding any increase in the present value of the economic benefits stated above are recognised immediately. If there is no change or a decrease in the present value of the economic benefits, the entire net actuarial gains of the current period after the deduction of past service costs of the current period are recognised immediately.
Plan assets are assets that are held by a long-term employee benefit fund or qualifying insurance policies. Plan assets are not available to the creditors of the Group, nor can they be paid directly to the Group. Fair value of plan assets is based on market price information and in the case of quoted securities, it is based on the published bid price. The value of any defined benefit asset recognised is restricted to the sum of any past service costs and actuarial gains and losses not yet recognised and the present value of any economic benefits available in the form of refunds from the plan or reductions in the future contributions to the plan.
The Group’s right to be reimbursed of some or all of the expenditure required to settle a defined benefit obligation is recognised as a separate asset at fair value when and only when reimbursement is virtually certain.

(n) Employee benefits (cont’d)
(iii) Employee share option plans
Employees of the Group receive remuneration in the form of share options as consideration for services rendered. The cost of these equity-settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value of the options at the date on which the options are granted. This cost is recognised in profit or loss, with a corresponding increase in the employee share option reserve, over the vesting period. The cumulative expense recognised at each reporting date until the vesting date reflects the extent to which the vesting period has expired and the Group’s best estimate of the number of options that will ultimately vest. The charge or credit to income statement for a period represents the movement in cumulative expense recognised as at the beginning and end of that period.
No expense is recognised for options that do not ultimately vest, except for options where vesting is conditional upon a market condition, which are treated as vested irrespective of whether or not the market condition is satisfied, provided that all other performance and/or service conditions are satisfied. The employee share option reserve is transferred to retained earnings upon expiry of the share options. When the options are exercised, the employee share option reserve is transferred to share capital if new shares are issued, or to treasury shares if the options are satisfied by the reissuance of treasury shares.
In situations where equity instruments are issued and some or all of the goods or services received by the entity as consideration cannot be specifically identified, the unidentified goods or services received (or to be received) are measured as the difference between the fair value of the share-based payment and the fair value of any identifiable goods or services received at the grant date. This is then capitalised or expensed as appropriate.
(iv) Employee leave entitlement
Employee entitlements to annual leave are recognised when they accrue to employees. An accrual is made for the estimated liability for annual leave as a result of services rendered by employees up to the financial reporting date.
(v) Performance share plan
The cost of a cash-settled share-based payment transaction is measured initially at fair value at the grant date. This fair value is recognised in profit or loss in the period it is incurred.

(o) Impairment of assets
The Group assesses at each financial reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset is impaired.
(i) Non-financial assets
The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, or when an annual impairment assessment for an asset is required, the Group makes an estimate of the asset’s recoverable amount.
An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or cash-generating unit’s fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining fair value less costs to sell, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded subsidiaries or other available fair value indicators. Where the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is written down to its recoverable amount.
Impairment losses are recognised in the income statement.
For assets, excluding goodwill, an assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increase cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised previously. Such reversal is recognised in the income statement. Impairment loss on goodwill is not reversed in a subsequent period.
(ii) Assets carried at amortised cost
If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on financial assets carried at amortised cost has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of an allowance account. The impairment loss is recognised in the income statement.
When the asset becomes uncollectible, the carrying amount of impaired financial assets is reduced directly or if an amount was charged to the allowance account, the amounts charged to the allowance account are written off against the carrying value of the financial asset.
To determine whether there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on financial assets has been incurred, the Group considers factors such as the probability of insolvency or significant financial difficulties of the debtor and default or significant delay in payments.

(o) Impairment of assets (cont’d)
(ii) Assets carried at amortised cost (cont’d)
If in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed to the extent that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its amortised cost at the reversal date. The amount of reversal is recognised in the income statement.
(iii) Assets carried at cost
If there is objective evidence (such as significant adverse changes in the business environment where the issuer operates, probability of insolvency or significant financial difficulties of the issuer) that an impairment loss on financial assets carried at cost has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar financial asset. Such impairment losses are not reversed in subsequent periods.
(p) Segment reporting
For management purposes, the Group is organised into operating segments based on their products and services which are independently managed by the respective segment managers responsible for the performance of the respective segments under their charge. The segment managers report directly to the management of the Company who regularly review the segment results in order to allocate resources to the segments and to assess the segment performance. Additional disclosures on each of these segments are shown in Note 33, including the factors used to identify the reportable segments and the measurement basis of segment information.
(q) Share capital and share issuance expenses
Proceeds from issuance of ordinary shares are recognised as share capital in equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of ordinary shares are deducted against the share capital.
(r) treasury shares
The Group’s own equity instruments, which are reacquired (treasury shares) are recognised at cost and deducted from equity. No gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the Group’s own equity instruments. Any difference between the carrying amount of treasury shares and the consideration received, if reissued, is recognised directly in equity. Voting rights related to treasury shares are nullified for the Group and no dividends are allocated to them respectively.
(s) Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs are expensed in the period they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds.

(t) Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount of the obligation can be estimated reliably.
Provisions are reviewed at each financial reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. If it is no longer probable that an outflow of economic resources will be required to settle the obligation, the provision is reversed. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre tax rate that reflects, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.
(u) Contingencies
A contingent liability is:
(i) a possible obligation that arises from past events and whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Group; or
(ii) a present obligation that arises from past events but is not recognised because:
• It is not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation; or
• The amount of the obligation cannot be measured with sufficient reliability.
A contingent asset is a possible asset that arises from past events and whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Group.
Contingent liabilities and assets are not recognised on the balance sheet of the Group, except for contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination that are present obligations and which the fair values can be reliably determined.
(v) related parties
A related party is defined as follows:
(i) A person or a close member or that person’s family is related to the Group and Company if that person:
(1) Has control or joint control over the Company;
(2) Has significant influence over the Company; or
(3) Is a member of the key management personnel of the Group or Company or of a parent of the Company.

(3) Both entities are joint ventures of the same third party.
(4) One entity is a joint venture of a third entity and the other entity is an associate of the third entity.
(5) The entity is a post-employment benefit plan for the benefit of employees of either the Company or an entity related to the Company. If the Company is itself such a plan, the sponsoring employers are also related to the Company;
(6) The entity is controlled or jointly controlled by a person identified in (i);
(7) A person identified in (i)(1) has significant influence over the entity or is a member of the key management personnel of the entity (or of a parent of the entity).
2.5significantaccountingestimatesandjudgements
The preparation of the Group’s financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the financial reporting date. However, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that could require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset or liability affected in the future periods.
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of each reporting period, 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) Percentage of completion for customised software solutions
The Group uses the percentage of completion method in accounting for its contract revenue for rendering of customised software solutions services where it is probable that contract costs are recoverable. The stage of completion is measured by reference to the contract costs incurred to date to the estimated total costs for the contract.
Significant judgement is required in determining the stage of completion, the extent of the contract costs incurred and the estimated total contract costs, as well as the recoverability of the contracts. In making the judgement, the Group has relied on past experience.

Key sources of estimation uncertainty (cont’d)
(b) Capitalisation and economic lives of software development expenditure
The Group capitalises costs relating to the development and enhancement of its new and existing products respectively, upon meeting all the criteria for capitalisation as described in Note 2.4(d)(ii). Amortisation, which commences upon commercialisation or sale of products, is recognised in the income statement based on a straight-line basis over the products’ estimated economic lives of 5 to 10 years. The Group reviews the amortisation period and amortisation method at least once a year.
However, if there are indications that the products are unable to meet expected future cash flow, immediate impairment loss would be recognised.
(c) Impairment of investments in subsidiaries
The Company assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that the investments in subsidiaries may be impaired. Where an indication of impairment exists, recoverable value is assessed based on an estimate of the value in use of the subsidiaries. Estimating the value in use requires the Company to make an estimate of the expected future cash flows from the subsidiaries and also to choose a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows. The carrying amount of the Company’s investments in subsidiaries at 30 June 2011 is RM1,612,486,346 (2010: RM1,608,907,743).
(d) Impairment of loans and receivables
The Group assesses at each financial reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset is impaired. To determine whether there is objective evidence of impairment, the Group considers factors such as the probability of insolvency or significant financial difficulties of the debtor and default or significant delay in payments.
Where there is objective evidence of impairment, the amount and timing of future cash flows are estimated based on historical loss experience for assets with similar credit risk characteristics. The carrying amount of the Group’s and the Company’s loans and receivables at the reporting date is disclosed in Note 16.
(e) Impairment of investment in an associate
Management has assessed the carrying value of investment in an associate, ePetrol Silverswitch Sdn. Bhd., for potential impairment. The carrying value is supported through a valuation determined by discounting the total estimated future cash flows of the business. The valuation in 2011 and 2010 involves cash flow forecasts and projections covering a 10-year period. Cash flows beyond the period are extrapolated using the key assumptions as follows:
2011 2010
Growth rate 0% 0% Discount rate 20% 20%

Key sources of estimation uncertainty (cont’d)
(e) Impairment of investment in an associate (cont’d)
On the basis that all other assumptions in the calculation remain the same, an increase of 0.1% in the discount rate would result in a change to the total estimated future cash flows of the business of the associate which would then result in a potential impairment of RM84,000 (2010: RM135,000) against the carrying value of investment in an associate.
(f) Income tax and deferred income tax
The Group is subject to income taxes in numerous jurisdictions in which the Group operates. Significant judgement is required in determining the capital allowances and deductibility of certain expenses during the estimation of the provision for income taxes. There are transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. The Group recognises liabilities for tax based on estimates of assessment of the tax liability due. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred income tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.
(g) Defined benefit plans
The cost of defined benefit pension plans and other post employment medical benefits as well as the present value of the pension obligation are determined using actuarial valuations. The actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions. These include the determination of the discount rates, expected rates of return of assets, future salary increases, mortality rates and future pension increases. Due to the complexity of the valuation, the underlying assumptions and its long-term nature, defined benefit obligations are highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date. The net benefit liability as at 30 June 2011 is RM1,979,585 (2010: nil). Further details are provided in Note 27.
In determining the appropriate discount rate, management considers the interest rates of high quality corporate bonds in the respective currencies with at least AA rating, with extrapolated maturities corresponding to the expected duration of the defined benefit obligation. The underlying bonds are further reviewed for quality, and those having excessive credit spreads are removed from the population of bonds on which the discount rate is based, on the basis that they do not represent high quality bonds.
The mortality rate is based on publicly available mortality tables for the specific country. Future salary increases and pension increases are based on expected future inflation rates for the specific country.
Further details about the assumptions used are provided in Note 27.

1. Two Bermuda subsidiaries of the Group, Silverlake Adaptive Applications & Continuous Improvement Services Ltd (“SAACIS”) and Silverlake Solutions Limited (“SSL”), have obtained exemption from the Ministry of Finance, Bermuda, under the Exempted Undertakings Tax Protection Act 1966 of Bermuda, thus no taxes shall be applicable to SAACIS and SSL on all income derived by SAACIS and SSL.
2. Three Malaysian subsidiaries of the Group, Silverlake Axis Sdn. Bhd. (“SASB”), Silverlake Axis MSC Sdn. Bhd. (“SAMSC”) and Silverlake Structured Services Sdn. Bhd.

The newly revised Enterprise Corporate Income Tax Law of P.R.C was effective from 1 January 2008. The basic income tax rate is 25%, except for high-tech enterprises which are entitled to a 15% preferential tax rate. However, the Company was no longer accorded with a high-tech enterprise status in the current financial year, and therefore the applicable tax rate is 25%.
4. A Malaysian subsidiary of the Group, QR Retail Automation (Asia) Sdn. Bhd., qualifies for exemption on income for value of increased export of services under Income Tax Act, 1965 (Exemption) (No. 2) 2001 - P.U. (A) 154 and No. 9 (2002), P.U.

Impact on acquisition on consolidated income statement From the date of acquisition, SJL contributed a loss of RM5,157,242 to the Group’s profit net of tax for financial year ended 30
June 2010. If the acquisition had taken place at the beginning of the previous financial year, the Group’s profit net of tax for financial year ended 30 June 2010 would have been RM58,134,823 and revenue would have been RM179,601,383.
Goodwill arising on acquisition Negative goodwill of RM107,916 arose from acquisition of the remaining 75% equity interest in SJL and is recognised
immediately in the income statement. The Group engaged an independent professional valuer to determine the fair value of SJL at the date of acquisition.
(c) Silverlake Solutions Limited, QR Technology Sdn. Bhd and Silverlake Sistem Sdn. Bhd.
In the prior year, the Company acquired:
(i) the entire issued and paid up capital of Silverlake Solutions Limited (“SSB HoldCo”) and its subsidiaries (“SSB group”) for a total consideration of RM701,873,478 satisfied via the issuance of 879,388,624 ordinary shares of USD0.02 per share. The issuance of the shares were completed in 2 separate tranches on 3 March 2010 and 14 May 2010.
(ii) the entire issued and paid up capital of QR Technology Sdn. Bhd. (“QR HoldCo”) and its subsidiaries (“QR group”) for a total consideration of RM117,927,006 satisfied via the issuance of 146,247,008 ordinary shares of USD0.02 per share on 3 March 2010; and

Prior to the acquisition of SSISB, the amounts due to a substantial shareholder and a director of the Company, Mr. Goh and his related companies were capitalised by the issuance of ordinary shares in SSISB. In addition, Mr. Goh also injected additional capital into SSISB in exchange for ordinary shares in SSISB to offset SSISB’s remaining net liability position. The capital injection amounting to RM8,185,065 was accounted as part of merger deficit.

Acquisitions of subsidiaries (cont’d.)
(c) Silverlake Solutions Limited, QR Technology Sdn. Bhd and Silverlake Sistem Sdn. Bhd. (cont’d.)
The above acquisitions were a combination of entities under common control whereby the Company, SSB group and QR group were under the common control of a major shareholder. Accordingly, the acquisitions had accounted for using the “pooling-of-interest” method in accordance with Note 2.4(a).
The cost of merger for the above acquisitions amounted to RM819,800,484 and resulted in the issuance of 1,025,635,632 ordinary shares of USD0.02 each. The differences between the cost of merger and the nominal value of shares acquired in relation to the acquisitions of SSB group, QR group and SSISB represents merger deficit.
The SSB group used a centralised approach to cash management and financing of its business prior to the acquisitions. Cash transactions relating to the businesses were retained by Silverlake Private Entities and therefore, were accounted for through distribution to Silverlake Private Entities in the consolidated statement of changes in equity.
The results of the subsidiaries that had accounted in the consolidated income statement under the pooling-of-interest method were as follows:

31. financialriskmanagementobjectivesandpolicies
The Group and the Company is exposed to financial risks arising from its operations and the use of financial instruments. The key financial risks include interest rate risk, liquidity risk, credit risk and foreign currency risk. The board of directors reviews and agrees policies and procedures for the management of these risks. The Audit Committee provides independent oversight to the effectiveness of the risk management process. It is, and has been throughout the current and previous financial years, the Group’s policy that no derivatives shall be undertaken except for the use as hedging instrument where appropriate and cost-efficient. The Group and the Company do not apply hedge accounting.
The following sections provide details regarding the Group’s and the Company’s exposure to the above-mentioned financial risks and the objectives, policies and processes for the management of these risks.
(a) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of the Group’s and the Company’s financial instruments will fluctuate because of the changes in market interest rates. The Group’s exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to the Group’s loans and borrowings and cash and cash equivalents. The Group’s policy is to manage its interest costs by obtaining the most favourable interest rates on its borrowings and overdraft facilities available.
Surplus funds of the Group are placed with licensed banks as deposits to generate interest income. The Group has no significant net exposure to interest rate risk.
Sensitivity analysis for interest rate riskThe Group’s term loan at variable rate is denominated in Ringgit Malaysia. At the financial reporting date, assuming the market interest rate increases/decreases by 1% with other variables including tax rate held constant, the Group’s profit before tax for the financial year would have been lower/higher by RM16,935 (2010: RM20,739) arising mainly as a result of higher/lower interest expense on this term loan.

31. financialriskmanagementobjectivesandpolicies(cont’d)
(b) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group or the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting financial obligations due to shortage of funds. There is no significant exposure to liquidity risk. The Group actively manages its operating cash flows and the availability of funding so as to ensure that all repayment and funding needs are met. The Group maintains sufficient levels of cash and cash equivalents to meet its working capital requirements. The Group’s liquidity risk management policy is to match maturities of financial asset and liabilities, and to maintain the available banking facilities of a reasonable level to its overall debt position.
The table below summarises the maturity profile of the Group’s and Company’s financial liabilities at the reporting date based on contracted undiscounted repayment obligations.

(c) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of loss that may arise on outstanding financial instruments should a counterparty default on its obligations. The Group’s and the Company’s exposure to credit risk arises primarily from trade and other receivables, amounts due from related parties and loan to an associate. For other financial assets (including cash and cash equivalents), the Group and the Company minimise credit risk by dealing exclusively with high credit rating counterparties.
The Group monitors its credit risk closely and trades only with recognised and creditworthy third parties. It is the Group’s policy that all customers who wish to trade on credit terms are subject to credit verification procedures. In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis and the Group does not expect its related parties to default on their repayment obligations. Cash and deposits are placed with reputable licensed banks.
Exposure to credit risk profileAs at financial reporting date, the Group has a significant concentration of credit risk in the form of outstanding balances due from 3 customers (2010: 2 customers), representing 61% (2010: 80%) of the Group’s trade receivables.

(d) Foreign currency risk
The Group has transactional currency exposures arising from sales or purchases that are denominated in a currency other than the respective functional currencies of the Group entities. The companies in the Group primarily transact in their respective functional currencies. The Group’s business is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures primarily with respect to sales and operating expenses denominated mainly in United States Dollars (USD) and Singapore Dollars (SGD).
The Group holds short-term deposits denominated in SGD, RMB and Baht which also gives rise to foreign currency exposure. The Group is also exposed to currency translation risk arising from its net investments in foreign operations whose functional currencies are not in Ringgit Malaysia. The Company’s net investments in foreign operations are not hedged as currency positions of the respective companies are considered to be long-term in nature.
At the reporting date, the Group does not hedge its foreign currency exposure using any financial instruments. However, management monitors foreign currency exposure and will consider hedging significant foreign currency exposure should the need arises.

(e) Fair values of financial instruments The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged or settled between knowledgeable and willing parties in an arm’s length transaction, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.
The following methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair values of the following classes of financial instruments:
(i) Cash and cash equivalents, other receivables, other payables, amounts due from/to subsidiaries, related parties and loan to subsidiary/associate
The carrying amounts approximate fair values due to the relatively short term maturity of these financial instruments.
(ii) trade receivables and trade payables
The carrying amounts approximate fair values because these are subject to normal trade credit terms.

(e) Fair values of financial instruments (cont’d)
(iii) Loans and borrowings
The fair values of the obligations under finance leases is determined by the present value of minimum lease payments.
The fair value of the term loan approximates its carrying value as it is based on floating interest rates and terms that continue to be available to the Group.
32. capitalmanagement
The primary objective of the Group’s capital management is to ensure that it maintains a strong credit rating and healthy capital ratios in order to support its business and maximise shareholder value.
The Group manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it, in light of changes in economic conditions. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the dividend payment to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares. No changes were made in the objectives, policies or processes during the years ended 30 June 2011 and 2010.
The Group monitors capital using the net asset value of the Group, which is total assets less total liabilities of the Group. The net asset value of the Group as at 30 June 2011 is RM212,997,471 (2010: RM163,412,214).
The Group and the subsidiaries are not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.
33. segmentinformation
For management purposes, the Group is organised into five business segments: sale of software and hardware products; rendering of customised software solutions services; maintenance and enhancement services; licensing of SIBS and credit card processing services.
Other operations of the Group comprise investment holding which does not constitute a separate reportable segment.
Management monitors the operating results of its business units separately for the purpose of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment. Segment performance is evaluated based on operating profit or loss which, in certain respects as explained in the table below, is measured differently from operating profit or loss in the consolidated financial statements. Group income taxes are managed on a group basis and are not allocated to operating segments.
Segment results, assets and liabilities include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis.
Transfer prices between operating segments are on an arm’s length basis in a manner similar to transactions with third parties.
Segment capital expenditure is the total cost incurred during the year to acquire segment assets which are expected to be used for more than one period.
