Message from the Chairman

Dear Shareholders, It is well aware by now that 2014 was a year of political unrest for Thailand which inevitably led to various economic impacts. Although every party wished to see peace and reconciliation in the country, still, that wish wasn’t realized. As the political conflict was escalated, Thailand had to confront with yet another coup d’état believed to at least bring peace and détente to the situation. Although the political upheaval had tremendous economic and political effects to the country, Thai Factory Development Plc., tried to run its business as best as possible but was eventually forced to extend the term of some of its projects which further delayed its ability to make profits to the Company itself and shareholders. The Board of Directors commits to perform its duties in a way that will ultimately benefit the Company. TFD still has a few projects in the pipeline which in the following year should generate tremendous profits to the firm. This includes the TFD Industrial Estate Project, the Colonial Kao Tao Hua Hin, and the Mahadlek Residence Project. Once completed, these projects should be profitable to the firm. Meanwhile, TFD’s subsidiaries have expanded their business in a material sense. To name a few, VSSL Enterprise Co., Ltd. is looking for a new project to replace the 15 Sukhumvit Residence Project which is to be completed soon while Total Industrial Services Co Ltd are currently build three warehouse and ready-made factory projects aside from the fact that the firm has a plan to invest overseas such as in the UK to increase its revenues. On this occasion, Thai Factory Development Plc., wishes to express our appreciation to shareholders, customers, financial institutions and our business alliance who have given us solid support. Our appreciation is also extended to the Board of Directors, the management and all employees who have excellently performed your duties to ensure that we remain a property development company with stability and sustainability. Yours sincerely,

Dr. Sunthorn Sathirathai Chairman of the Board

Accounting Treatment Guidance for Stock Dividend These financial reporting standards were amended primarily to align their content with the corresponding International Financial Reporting Standards. Most of the changes were directed towards revision of wording and terminology, and provision of interpretations and accounting guidance to users of the accounting standards. These financial reporting standards do not have any significant impact on the financial statements.

Annual Report 2014

54 (b) Financial reporting standards that will become effective in the future The Federation of Accounting Professions has issued a number of revised and new financial reporting standards that become effective for fiscal years beginning on or after 1 January 2015. These financial reporting standards were aimed at alignment with the corresponding International Financial Reporting Standards, with most of the changes directed towards revision of wording and terminology, and provision of interpretations and accounting guidance to users of accounting standards. The management of the Company and its subsidiaries believes they will not have any significant impact on the financial statements in the year in which they are adopted. However, some of these financial reporting standards involve changes to key principles, as discussed below: TAS 19 (revised 2014) Employee Benefits This revised standard requires that the entity recognise actuarial gains and losses immediately in other comprehensive income while the existing standard allows the entity to recognise such gains and losses immediately in profit or loss, or in other comprehensive income, or to recognise them gradually in profit or loss. This revised standard does not have any impact on the financial statements as the Company and its subsidiaries already recognised actuarial gains and losses immediately in other comprehensive income. TFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements TFRS 10 prescribes requirements for the preparation of consolidated financial statements and replaces the part dealing with consolidated financial statements as included in TAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements. This standard changes the principles used in considering whether control exists. Under this standard, an investor is deemed to have control over an investee if it has rights, or is exposed, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and it has the ability to direct the activities that affect the amount of its returns, even if it holds less than half of the shares or voting rights. This important change requires the management to exercise a lot of judgement when reviewing whether the Company and its subsidiaries have control over the investees and determine which entities have to be included for preparation of the consolidated financial statements. The management of the Company and its subsidiaries believes that this standard will not have any significant impact on the Company and its subsidiaries’ financial statements.

Annual Report 2014

Thai Factory Development Public Company Limited

TFRS 11 Joint Arrangements TFRS 11 supersedes TAS 31 Interests in Joint Ventures. This standard requires an entity to account for an investment in a jointly controlled entity that meets the definition of a joint venture using the equity method, while TAS 31 allows the entity to apply either the proportionate consolidation method or the equity method to account for such an investment. The management of the Company and its subsidiaries believes that this standard is not relevant to their business. TFRS 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities This standard stipulates disclosures relating to an entity’s interests in subsidiaries, joint arrangements and associates, including structured entities. This standard therefore has no financial impact to the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. TFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement This standard provides guidance on how to measure fair value and stipulates disclosures related to fair value measurements. Entities are to apply the guidance under this standard if they are required by other financial reporting standards to measure their assets or liabilities at fair value. The effect of the change from the adoption of this standard is to be recognised prospectively. Based on the preliminary analysis, the management of the Company and its subsidiaries believes that this standard will not have any significant impact on the Company and its subsidiaries’ financial statements. 4.

Significant accounting policies

4.1

Revenue recognition Revenues recognition from real estate sales Revenues from sales of land, factory and condominium units are recognised as revenues when significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have passed to the buyer, whereby construction works are completed and the ownerships have been transferred to buyers after all payments received from the buyers.

Service income is recognised when services have been rendered taking into account the stage of completion. Interest income Interest income is recognised on an accrual basis based on the effective interest rate. Dividends Dividends are recognised when the right to receive the dividends is established. 5


Annual Report 2014

56 4.2

Cost of property sales In determining the costs of land, factory and condominium units sold, the Company and its subsidiaries allocated anticipated total development costs (after receognising the costs incurred to date) are attributed to units already sold on the basis of the salable area and then recognised as costs in the income statements. Project development costs are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost comprises cost of land, design fees, utilities, construction costs and directly related finance cost and expenses. The Company and its subsidiaries recognise loss on diminution in project value (if any) in the income statements.

4.3

Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash in hand and at banks, and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less and not subject to withdrawal restrictions.

4.4

Trade accounts receivable Trade accounts receivable are stated at the net realisable value. Allowance for doubtful accounts is provided for the estimated losses that may be incurred in collection of receivables. The allowance is generally based on collection experience and analysis of debt aging.

4.5

Investments a)

Investments in securities held for trading are stated at fair value. Changes in the fair value of these securities are recorded in profit or loss.

b)

Investments in available-for-sale securities are stated at fair value. Changes in the fair value of these securities are recorded in comprehensive income, and will be recorded in profit or loss when the securities are sold.

c)

Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for in the separate financial statements using the cost method.

The fair value of marketable securities is based on the lastest bid price of the last working day of the year. The weighted average method is used for computation of the cost of investments.

6


Annual Report 2014

57

Thai Factory Development Public Company Limited

In the event the Company reclassifies investments from one type to another, such investments will be readjusted to their fair value as at the reclassification date. The difference between the carrying amount of the investments and the fair value on the date of reclassification are recorded in profit or loss or recorded as other components of shareholders’ equity, depending on the type of investment that is reclassified. On disposal of an investment, the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the investment is recognised in profit or loss. 4.6

Investment properties Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and allowance for loss on impairment (if any). Depreciation of investment properties is calculated by reference to their costs on the straight-line basis over the following estimated useful lives: Building and factory Office building Improvement of leasehold building Improvement of office building Infrastructure system Improvement of leasehold land

25, 30 years 28 years 29 - 30 years 5 years 20 years 8, 29 years

Depreciation of the investment properties is included in determining income. On disposal of investment properties, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognised in profit or loss in the period when the asset is derecognised. 4.7

Equipment/Depreciation Equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and allowance for loss on impairment of assets (if any). Depreciation of equipment is calculated by reference to their costs on the straight-line basis over the following estimated useful lives: Improvement of leasehold office building Furniture and office equipment Motor vehicles

5 years 5, 8 years 5 years

Depreciation is included in determining income. No depreciation is provided on assets under installation. An item of equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on disposal of an asset is included in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised. 7


Annual Report 2014

58 4.8

Borrowing costs Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalised as part of the cost of the respective assets. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period they are incurred. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds.

4.9

Leasehold right and amortisation Leasehold right are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses (if any). Amortisation is calculated by reference to its cost on a straightline basis over the following leasehold period: Leasehold rights - land Leasehold rights - factory

30, 40 years 15 years

The amortisation is included in determing income. 4.10 Related party transactions Related parties comprise enterprises and individuals that control, or are controlled by, the Company and its subsidiaries, whether directly or indirectly, or which are under common control with the Company and its subsidiaries. They also include associated companies and individuals which directly or indirectly own a voting interest in the Company and its subsidiaries that gives them significant influence over the Company and its subsidiaries, key management personnel, directors, and officers with authority in the planning and direction of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries. 4.11 Long-term leases Leases of property, plant or equipment which transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalised at the lower of the fair value of the leased assets and the present value of the minimum lease payments. The outstanding rental obligations, net of finance charges, are included in longterm payables, while the interest element is charged to profit or loss over the lease period. The assets acquired under finance leases is depreciated over the shorter of the useful life of the asset and the lease period. Lease of property, plant or equipment which do not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense in profit or loss on a straight line basis over the lease term.

Thai Factory Development Public Company Limited

4.12 Foreign currencies The consolidated and separate financial statements are presented in Baht, which is also the Company’s functional currency. Items of each entity included in the consolidated financial statements are measured using the functional currency of that entity. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into Baht at the exchange rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Baht at the exchange rate ruling at the end of reporting period. Gains and losses on exchange are included in determining income. 4.13 Impairment of assets At the end of each reporting period, the Company and its subsidiaries performs impairment reviews in respect of the assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an asset may be impaired. An impairment loss is recognised when the recoverable amount of an asset, which is the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and its value in use, is less than the carrying amount. In determining value in use, the estimated future cash flows 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 a valuation model that, based on information available, reflects the amount that the Company could obtain from the disposal of the asset in an arm’s length transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties, after deducting the costs of disposal. An impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss. 4.14 Employee benefits Short-term employee benefits Salaries, wages, bonuses and contributions to the social security fund are recognised as expenses when incurred. Post-employment benefits Defined contribution plans The Company and its subsidiaries, and its employees have jointly established a provident fund. The fund is monthly contributed by employees and by the Company and its subsidiaries. The fund’s assets are held in a separate trust fund and contributions of the Company and its subsidiaries are recognised as expenses when incurred.

9


Annual Report 2014

60 Defined benefit plans The Company and its subsidiaries have obligations in respect of the severance payments they must make to employees upon retirement under labor law. The Company and its subsidiaries treat these severance payment obligations as a defined benefit plan. The obligation under the defined benefit plan is determined by a professionally qualified independent actuary based on actuarial techniques, using the projected unit credit method. Actuarial gains and losses arising from post-employment benefits are recognised immediately in other comprehensive income. The defined benefits liability comprises the present value of the defined benefit obligation less unrecognised past service cost and unrecognised actuarial gain or losses. For the first-time adoption of TAS 19 Employee Benefits, the Company elected to recognise the transitional liability, which exceeds the liability that would have been recognised at the same date under the previous accounting policy, as an expense on a straight-line basis over up to five years from the date of adoption. 4.15 Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Company and its subsidiaries have a present obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. 4.16 Income tax Income tax expense represents the sum of corporate income tax currently payable and deferred tax. Current tax Current income tax is provided in the accounts at the amount expected to be paid to the taxation authorities, based on taxable profits determined in accordance with tax legislation. Deferred tax Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts at the end of each reporting period, using the tax rates enacted at the end of the reporting period. The Company and its subsidiaries recognise deferred tax liabilities for all taxable temporary differences while they recognise deferred tax assets for all deductible temporary differences and tax losses carried forward to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which such deductible temporary differences and tax losses carried forward can be utilised.

10


Annual Report 2014

61

Thai Factory Development Public Company Limited

At each reporting date, the Company and its subsidiaries review and reduce the carrying amount of deferred tax assets 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. The Company and its subsidiaries record deferred tax directly to shareholders' equity if the tax relates to items that are recorded directly to shareholders' equity. 5.

Significant accounting judgements and estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with financial reporting standards at times requires management to make subjective judgements and estimates regarding matters that are inherently uncertain. These judgements and estimates affect reported amounts and disclosures; and actual results could differ from these estimates. Significant judgements and estimates are as follows: Recognition and derecognition of assets and liabilities In considering whether to recognise or to derecognise assets or liabilities, the management is required to make judgement on whether significant risk and rewards of those assets or liabilities have been transferred, based on its best knowledge of the current events and arrangements. Leases In determining whether a lease is to be classified as an operating lease or finance lease, the management is required to use judgement regarding whether significant risk and rewards of ownership of the leased asset has been transferred, taking into consideration terms and conditions of the arrangement. Allowance for doubtful accounts In determining an allowance for doubtful accounts, the management needs to make judgement and estimates based upon, among other things, past collection history, aging profile of outstanding debts and the prevailing economic condition. Impairment of investments The Company and its subsidiaries treats available-for-sale investments and investments in subsidiaries as impaired when there has been a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value below their cost or where other objective evidence of impairment exists. The determination of what is “significant” or “prolonged” requires judgement of the management.

11


Annual Report 2014

62 Equipment/Depreciation In determining depreciation of equipment, the management is required to make estimates of the useful lives and residual values of the equipment and to review estimate useful lives and residual values when there are any changes. In addition, the management is required to review equipment for impairment on a periodical basis and record impairment losses when it is determined that their recoverable amount is lower than the carrying amount. This requires judgements regarding forecast of future revenues and expenses relating to the assets subject to the review. Investment property The initial recognition and measurement of goodwill and intangible assets, and subsequent impairment testing, require management to make estimates of cash flows to be generated by the asset or the cash generating units and to choose a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows. Deferred tax assets Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences and losses can be utilised. Significant management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and level of estimate future taxable profits. Post-employment benefits under defined benefit plans The obligation under the defined benefit plan is determined based on actuarial techniques. Such determination is made based on various assumptions, including discount rate, future salary increase rate, mortality rate and staff turnover rate. Litigation The Company and its subsidiaries have contingent liabilities as a result of litigation. The Company’s management has used judgement to assess of the results of the litigation and believes that no loss will result. Therefore no contingent liabilities are recorded as at the end of reporting period.

Earnings per share Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing profit for the year attributable to equity holders of the Company (excluding other comprehensive income) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year, after adjusting the number of ordinary shares to reflect the impact of the stock dividend as discussed in Note 34 to the financial statements. The prior period’s basic earnings per share has been recalculated as if the stock dividend and the change in number of ordinary shares had been distributed and incurred at the beginning of the earliest period reported.

47


Annual Report 2014

98 Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing profit for the year attributable to equity holders of the Company (excluding other comprehensive income) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year plus the weighted average number of ordinary shares which would need to be issued to convert all dilutive potential ordinary shares into ordinary shares. The calculation assumes that the conversion took place either at the beginning of the year or on the date the potential ordinary shares were issued. In addition, the number of ordinary shares reflect the impact of the stock dividend as discussed in Note 34 to the financial statements. The prior year’s diluted earnings per share has been recalculated as if the stock dividend and the change in number of ordinary shares had been distributed and incurred at the beginning of the earliest period reported.

35.5 Litigations Outstanding litigations as at 31 December 2014 are detailed below. a)

In 2012, a company (the plaintiff) sued the Company as a joint defendant (the fourth defendant), together with the local administration of Paknampran Sub-District), petitioning the Court to revoke the construction permit of The Colonial Kao Tao Hua Hin project, a project of the Company, since the construction permit allowed the construction closer than the-200-meter distance from the shoreline stated in an announcement by the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment and such construction permit was therefore in violation of the law. The plaintiff also petitioned to have the court order the defendants not to carry out construction or any other action until the case is finalised. Subsequently, on 23 August 2013, the Administrative Court of First Instance ordered the suspension of the construction under the permit until the Court issues a judgement or others order otherwise. However, the Company appealed the order of the Administrative Court of First Instance on 25 September 2013. On 27 March 2014, the Supreme Administrative Court reversed the order of the Administrative Court of First Instance, lifting the measures for temporary relief or protection before judgment. On 21 November 2014, the Administrative Court of First Instance order to revoked the construction permit of condominium with a height over 12 meters from ground level up to the height of the building. However, the Company appealed against the order of the Administrative Court of First Instance on 19 December 2014. 58

The Company’s management have used judgment to assess the outcome of the lawsuit and the damage caused by the suspension of construction work, and believes that they will not result in any damage to the value of project. The Company therefore did not record allowance for diminution in the value of the project or a provision for liabilities as a result of the lawsuit as at the end of the reporting period. b)

In April 2014, the Company was sued by buyer of a project for a claim of Baht 7.28 million plus interest at rate of 7.5 per annum and monthly compensation of Baht 80,000, for damages resulting from cannot use condominium unit as a result of the order of the competent Civil Construction. The case is currently being considered by the Civil Court. The management of the Company believes that the Company will not incur significant losses as a result of this case. Because this case arose after the buyer was buy condominium unit from another, not directly from the Company.

35.6 Contingent liabilities Total Industrial Services Company Limited (“the Subsidiary”) has contingent liabilities in respect of the compensation payable to MFC Industrial Investment Property and Leasehold Fund (“the Fund”), in the event that the land of the Kingkaew Project is expropriated, in accordance with the conditions of agreement made between the Subsidiary and the Fund. The maximum amount that the Subsidiary may have to pay to the Fund is approximately Baht 27 million, calculated based on the rate specified in the agreement. The Company and the Subsidiary’s management have used judgement to estimate the losses in this event and believes that the Fund would not suffer any losses in the event that the land is expropriated and the Subsidiary will not have to pay any compensation to the Fund. The Company and its subsidiary therefore did not record any contingent liabilities in respect of this matter as at the end of the reporting period. 36.

Thai Factory Development Public Company Limited

In the past, TFD and TISCOM handled the business of standard ready-built factory/warehouse within the Group. However, in 2013, TFD planned to list TISCOM in the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) and as a result re-organized its business for a clearer structure to have TISCOM and Barnsley focus and oversee the Groups’ entire business of standard ready-built factories and warehouses instead. 2.1.1 Industrial estate In 2007, the Company set up the TFD Industrial Estate at Bangpakong District, Chachoengsao Province, to develop land, set up basic infrastructure and build standard factory buildings. The Company signed a joint-operation contract with the Industrial Estate Authority of Thailand (IEAT) and provided for Thai and foreign investors lands for rent in two zones; namely, General Zone and Free Zone. Target groups of customers were businesses in the auto part industry, electronics and manufacturing industry not generating pollution. To facilitate investors, the Company chose the site located not so far from Bangkok along the Motorway at Km 43 next to an exit into the Chachoengsao-Chonburi Highway. The site is flanked with convenient highways and not prone to flood which makes it extremely ideal to build factories and warehouses as a logistics center. Thanks to the site’s competitive advantage as it’s no more than 20 minutes from the Suvarnabhumi Airport and no more than 40 minutes from the Laem Chabang Deep Sea Port plus its close proximity to Bangkok, Thailand’s capital, the location has become a very highly potential one. Most of the Company’s customers are Japanese investors who have invested in electronic parts and auto part industries. As of December 31, 2014, the TFD Industrial Estate is operated in two phases as follows. (1) Phase 1 Of the project’s entire area totaling 302.44 rai, 231.23 rai of the Phase 1 Project are generating incomes. Of this, 74.59 rai are in Free Zone and 156.64 rai are in General Zone. Since 2011, the Company has recognized incomes from the project both from sales of vacant land and sales of land along with completed factory buildings between 1,500-3,000 square meters. As of December 31, 2014, the Phase 1 TFD Industrial Estate sold as many as 225.48 rai of its areas. There remained only 5.75 rai or 2.49 percent of the total income-generating lands left unsold. (2) Phase 2 The Company plans to expand the TFD Phase 2 Industrial Estate project area which is adjacent to its Phase 1 by another 2,500 rai. The project is currently under development, having landscape architecture and infrastructure systems designed while an environment impact assessment (EIA) report is under preparation to seek permission from the authorities as well as approval to use the land for an industrial purpose. As of December 31, 2014, the Company has already bought approximately 1,162.30 rai of vacant land for the Phase 2 project. During the 2015-2017 investment plan, it expects to buy 750 additional rai of land which will cost the Company around Baht 3 billion. The total project value is around Baht 7 billion and the Company expects to debut its sales in 2015.

3. Marketing and competitions 3.1.1 Marketing strategies Industrial estate Target groups of customers for the Company’s industrial estate business are supporting industry and major operators who have already bought vacant land in the TFD Industrial Estate. Major target groups of customers are small and medium-sized enterprises which do not generate pollution who however look for transportation convenience. This refers especially to electronics and auto part manufacturers. Thailand’s major flood in 2011 led to demand surge from investors who wanted to buy vacant land and rent factory building in the TFD Industrial Estate which is situated at least two meters above the sea level and therefore is perceived safe from flood. In addition, the industrial estate also enjoys rights and privileged granted by the Board of Investment (BOI) for Zone 2 investment of which the location is nearest to Bangkok. The site where the industrial estate is situated is a strategic location and is indeed the Company’s competitive advantage. Besides, as of December 31, 2014, the Company has gathered 1,211.80 rai of land ready for development as its Phase 2 TFD Industrial Estate Project within the next five to eight years. The lands were purchased at lower costs compared to sales prices. There isn’t as much land available for industrial development purpose at the moment. That’s a reason why raw land price dramatically increases compared to what happened in the past. This refers especially to land adjacent to highways in the area where the TFD Industrial Estate is situated as well as land along Bangna-Trad Highway between Km 20 and Km 40. Together with the fact that land in any industrial estate is highly demanded by investors and there appears to be a shortage of such land, demands for land in the TFD Industrial Estate have consistently increased. The Company’s pricing of its land and rent will however be based on construction costs, funding costs and land prices in the neighborhood. The Company adjusts both the rent and sales prices of vacant land to accord with market conditions on a yearly basis. The Company has two major sales and distribution channels; namely, sales office at the TFD Industrial Estate and real estate agents. At the other end, it communicates with markets through billboards erected at the TFD Industrial Estate, newspapers, websites and joint events co-organized with the BOI. Standard factory building/warehouse building TISCOM’s target groups of customers in the completed factory and warehouse for rent business are small and medium-sized enterprises (SME) as well as Thai and foreign operators wishing to restrict their investment risk during the initial investment phase. Some foreign investors prefer to set up factory and warehouse in an industrial estate thanks to available public infrastructure and related industrial services. In addition, by concentrating in the industrial estate, they can take advantage from developed transportation system, raw material management and interdependency with other industrial counterparts. This is especially the case of the automobile industry and the petrochemical industry. In addition, completed factory and warehouse building help them save time and labor costs to build a factory to manufacture products. That’s why factory and warehouse building for rent is an alternative that enables investors to reduce investment costs while enhancing their

Thai Factory Development Public Company Limited

competition flexibility. Customers can choose to rent factory and warehouse buildings during an initial phase and will only buy industrial land, factory or warehouse of their own when business subsequently expands. This service also helps the Company to maintain a good long-term relationship with customers as they could focus more at their strategic investment without having to put money into land, factory or warehouse and thereby reduces investment costs while increasing investment returns. As a result, TISCOM’s factory and warehouse location and its comprehensive one-stop service center are indeed its competitive advantage. Rents charged factory and warehouse buildings depend mainly on costs of construction and funding costs. When setting a rent, TISCOM will take into consideration the site of factory and warehouse together with rents offered by competitors in nearby industrial estates to ensure competitiveness. TISCOM has two main distribution channels; namely, through salespersons and real estate agents In addition, TISCOM also advertises through media such as billboards erected at the TFD Industrial Estate, newspapers, website and joint events co-organized by the BOI similar to market communications carried out by the industrial estate business. Residential building (Condominium) Target groups of customers in the residential building project of both the Company and VSSL are medium-income earners who eye for a condominium in the heart of the city close to skytrain and those wishing to have the second home for weekend retreat. As of December 31, 2014, the Company and VSSL have three condominium projects under development and/or sold and/or waiting to be transferred to customers which include (1) the 15 Sukhumvit Residence Project; (2) the Colonial Kao Tao Hua Hin Project; and (3) The Mahadlek Residence Project. Competitive advantage of the Company and VSSL in the condominium business is a result of the management’s long-time experience in the real estate development industry which enables the Company to effectively select an ideal site for residential projects The Company and VSSL have two major sales and distribution channels; namely, contact target customers through seller of the Company and VSSL and sales through broker companies. Office building for rent SG’s target groups of customers are Thai and foreign operators wishing to secure an office in the Central Business District (CBD). SG’s main group of customers is foreign business introduced to SG by word-of-mouth. The Company has co-invested in the office for rent business through SG in which it holds 49.91 per cent shares. SG has two office buildings for rent; namely (1) SG Tower 1; and (2) The Millennia (SG Tower 2). Locations of these two office buildings are connected between Soi Mahadlekluang 3, Rajdamri Road and Langsuan Road which are close to two BTS Skytrain stations of Rajdamri and Chidlom. The site is considered a strategic location which helps enhancing SG’s competitive advantage in this office for rent business. SG determines the rent of its office space on the basis of original rents it currently charges customers while rents of neighboring offices are also taken into consideration to ensure SG’s competitiveness. SG has a policy to adjust its rents every three years based on the rental term to consistently reflect market conditions. SG has two major sales and distribution channels consisting of direct sales through SG’s sales office and sales through brokers.

Status of Industry and Competition Industrial Estate 31 December 2014, Currently the Industrial Estate Authority of Thailand (“IEAT�) has 56 industrial estates in operation in 16 provinces, 11 of them are operated by I-EA-T and 45 are jointly operated with other developers. The others are industrial estates and industrial parks which are operated by the public companies. According to Colliers International Thailand’s report, as of the first six months of 2014, accumulated supply of space in industrial estates was around 152,460 rai where 70% of the entire supply was in the eastern region of Thailand followed by the central area which located approximately 25% of the total supply.

Diagram: Accumulated supply of space in industrial estates

Source: Industrial Estate Authority of Thailand and Research Department, Colliers International Thailand The occupation rate of industrial estate space as of the first half of 2014 stood at 88% of the entire supply which represented an increase of 3% of the total space from the year before. The fact that Thailand is becoming part of the Asean Economic Community (AEC) members in 2015 should increase investment values in Thailand as the AEC should likely attract foreign investors looking for efficient production base equipped with quality infrastructure and logistics facilities.

An average land price in industrial estate during the first half of 2014 remained relatively unchanged from the second half of 2013. Most business owners tried to attract investors during Thailand’s political unrest which saw people to the streets to protest the government by maintaining or slightly increasing their sales price since the second half of 2013. The competition in industrial estate is considered not too high due to few numbers of developers and also the high initial investment required. The direct competitors of the company are others industrial estate in the same zoning which are the Gateway City Industrial Estate and the Well Grow Industrial Estate. Because of the superb location of TFD Industrial Estate which is the strategic and competitive advantage point, the Company can compete fairly high and hence is able to be the Price Leader or Maker to other industrial estates which are closed by. Land with standard ready built factory / warehouse For industrial estate development industry, the process will start from the industrial land development, invest in fundamental structures in the industrial land and then sell land to industrial entrepreneurs to build factory and warehouse. The manufacturers / investors may have a choice to rent the factory and warehouse instead so as to decrease such investment and also risk from any uncertainties which may occur. Also the investors will have convenience from full range services from the industrial estate developer. In addition the industrial estate development, the standard ready-built factory and warehouse also attract foreign entrepreneurs who want to set up their manufacturing bases in Thailand without to invest in ownership in factories and warehouses. Supply of standard ready-built factory and warehouse can be classified into 2 main types : supply from developers who also own industrial lands , thus the developer of factory and warehouse is the same person as the owner of industrial estate , and supply from developers who build factory and warehouse on the industrial land , either purchased or rent from other developers. For example, the company that builds factory and warehouse for rent on the land purchased from the industrial estate developer in various locations etc. The demands of the standard ready-built factory and warehouse for rent come from the manufacturers who do not want to own the factory and warehouse in order to decrease the project’s investment and for the flexibility in the operation. Moreover, Thailand is still a great choice for foreign investors because of its location, which located in the central part of Asia, skill workers, good infrastructure including the rules and regulations which support the investment from abroad. Therefore, the demand for the factory and warehouse for rent is still increase.


Annual Report 2014

The competitions in the industrial land and standard ready built factory and warehouse is still considered moderate as there are few developers because of the high cost of investment same as to the industrial estate developers. In addition, most of the entrepreneurs and investors which have demand in the factory and warehouse for rent, normally have target location in which such developers can support their needs. Direct competitors of TISCOM are the industrial estate developers, which provide the land and standard ready built factory / warehouse for rent in the same location. However, due to the good location of TFD Industrial Estate which is considered a strategic point and a competitive advantage to the Group Company. As a result , the Company and TISCOM still have high competitive potential and thus make them to be a Price maker in the nearby industrial estates.

An average sales rate of new condominium launched during Q3/2014 was around 59%, down from 64% in the previous quarter of the same year due to several factors affecting Thai consumer’s confidence including the rate of household debt and Thailand’s economic slowdown, all of which produced an impact to sales activities during Q3/2014. However, certain projects by certain listed property developers continued to enjoy high sales rate in the past quarter which underlines the fact that consumers still trust reputable developers

The competitive situations in the residential condominiums of the Company and VSSL are considered highly competitive because the demand of the condominium market does not decrease or slightly decrease while the developers, both small and large, still increase to develop high-rise buildings even in the areas where supply is high. . Direct competitors of the Group Company are the other condominium projects in the same or nearby area of the Company. However, due to the long experiences on the real estate sector of the Company’s management, the Company can select the right and appropriate location to develop its condominium project effectively. Altogether with the reasonable and very competitive price, these factors result in that the Company and VSSL still have potential to compete with other developers in this industry. Office Building As of Q3/2014, Colliers International Thailand found that the supply of office building space at the end of Q3/2014 stood at 8,174,460 square meter which will increase to 8,674,280 square meters by the end of 2015.

Accrued interest However, the SEC recommended that TFD had the Shareholders’ Meeting participate in an approval of this transaction for the purpose of transparency and corporate governance under the SEC and the SET’s notifications. TFD submitted the transaction to its Board’s Meeting No. 14/2557 dated July 30, 2014 for another review of its approval. On this occasion, TFD re-adjusted the project development model to respond to economic and political conditions perceived not so stable at the time before hiring two appraisers to appraise the land which was valued at Baht 808.20 million and Baht 777.71 million, respectively. The management thereby negotiated with JC Kevin to reduce the land price to reflect the newly-appraised prices as well as VSSL’s cost of opportunity from not being able to seek profit from the down payment it had earlier paid to JC Kevin. Conditions of the new agreement could be summarized as follows. 1. If shareholders approved the land purchase: JC Kevin would agree to reduce the land price to Baht 755 million which when deducted by Baht 320 million down payment already paid would leave only Baht 435 million to be paid by VSSL within 90 days from the approval date by the Shareholders’ Meeting.

If shareholders did not approve the land purchase: JC Kevin agreed to return Baht 320 million down payment back to VSSL together with a 5.5% interest rate per annum from the day JC Kevin received the down payment from VSSL to the day VSSL received its money pack. This would take place within 90 days from the day the Shareholders’ Meeting decided not to approve the land purchase. TFD’s Board of Directors resolved to allow VSSL to buy the land from JC Kevin and to submit this matter to seek approval from TFD’s Shareholders’ Meeting which, on September 30, 2014, the Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting No. 2/2557 resolved not to allow VSSL to buy the land. JC Kevin therefore had to pay back Baht 320 million down payment together with a 5.5% interest per annum in return to VSSL within 90 days from the day TFD’s Shareholders Meeting decided not to approve the transaction (due payment on December 29, 2014).

The repayment of Baht 320 million down payment to VSSL be extended by another year from the due payment date which was December 29, 2014. 2. The interest would be paid on a monthly basis at 7% per annum from December 29, 2014 to the day VSSL is duly paid both the principle and the interest from JC Kevin. 3.

Audit Committee’s opinion: The Audit Committee’s Meeting No. 10/2557 held on July 30, 2014 was of the opinion that buying the land from JC Kevin could be another channel for VSSL and TFD to generate future income and profit. Besides, the new sales price of the land was lower than an appraised price submitted by independent land appraisers. In addition, sales conditions were aligned with land sales conditions in general. The Audit Committee felt appropriate to submit the matter to TFD’s Board of Directors for consideration and to seek approval from TFD’s Shareholders’ Meeting which on September 30, 2014 resolved in its Extraordinary Meeting No. 2/2557 not to allow VSSL to buy the land. The Audit Committee No. 2/2558 on February 20, 2015 subsequently viewed that JC Kevin had proposed in its request to extend the repayment period to offer to VSSL an interest rate of 7% per annum which was higher than TFD’s average financial costs and JC Kevin had already paid the accrued interest in 2014 to VSSL. Besides, JC Kevin also agreed to additionally mortgage its property to guarantee the repayment where the collateral value, based on the appraisal by independent land appraisers, was higher than the amount of debt due for payment at the moment. Finally, Mr. Apichai Taechaubol also personally guaranteed the repayment of this amount. All of these had made the Audit Committee feel appropriate to propose the matter for TFD’s Board of Directors’ consideration as well as to seek an approval from TFD’s Shareholders’ Meeting.

On April 1, 2013, TFD acquired 7.01 million 496.90 shares of VSSL which accounted for 100% of its registered and paid-up capital from Mr. Apichai and Mrs. Chalida Taechaubol for a total of Baht 497 million (the agreed price was Baht 500 million but TFD paid before the due date and thus enjoyed Baht 3 million discount).

Reasonable and rationale

- TFD acquired VSSL to expand its investment in a business with potential to generate incomes and profits in the near future as this would allow TFD to earn sales revenues from the Sukhumvit 15 Residences Project to compensate for TFD’s sales incomes from condominium projects whose sales had been closed while other projects remained under development. The transaction price was reasonable since an independent land appraiser had appraised it at Baht 582.98 million. The transaction price therefore was lower than the fair value. The transaction meanwhile was approved by the Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting No. 1/2556 on February 14, 2013. Audit Committee’s opinion: The Audit Committee in its Meeting No. 8/2555 dated December 26, 2012 viewed that the acquisition of VSSL’s shares was reasonable to TFD’s business as it would general nearfuture income and cash flow for TFD and thus would benefit TFD. The Audit Committee felt appropriate to submit this VSSL acquisition which was a connected transaction to the Board of Directors who would seek further approval from the Shareholders’ Meeting which in its ExtraordinaryShareholders’ Meeting No. 1/2556 on February 14, 2013 resolved to allow TFD to acquire 7,009,998 ordinary shares of VSSL at Bath 100 par value per share or 100% of VSSL’s registered and paid-up capital at Baht 71.3266 per share for a total sales value of Baht 500 million from Mr. Apichai Taechaubol and Mr. Chalida Taechaubol.

Policy or possibility to continue executing a connected transaction in the future The Company has a policy to continue executing connected transactions carried out at the moment in the future subject to the corporate governance principle where conditions of the transactions will be aligned with what is done during ordinary course of business and at a market price which can be comparable to a price offered to the third party. In addition, the Audit Committee will take part in the process to review the soundness of the connected transaction’s price and its rationality. The Board of Directors will comply with the laws on securities and exchange as well as regulations, announcements, orders or requirements of the Office of the Securities and Exchange (SEC), the Capital Market Supervisory Board and the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) when executing a connected transaction possible taking place in the future. The Board will also comply with requirements to disclose information of connected transactions as well as the acquisition or disposal of major assets of the Company and subsidiaries. It is anticipated that a volume of the Company’s connected transactions to be executed in the future will remain relatively the same as what’s happening now. However, this volume is subject to change based on what’s necessary and proper to the business of the Group. If the Company or subsidiaries execute a connected transaction with a person with potential conflict of interest, a stakeholder, or a person who could have a conflict of interest in the future, the Company will have the Audit Committee express its opinion regarding the transaction’s necessity and soundness. If the Audit Committee doesn’t have any expertise to review such connected transaction, an independent expert or an auditor of the Company will provide an opinion instead for the Board or shareholders, as the case may be, to use in their decision-making process. The Company will disclose connected transactions in notes to the financial statements audited or reviewed by the Company’s auditor. 5. Future measures to avoid conflict of interest TFD has companies considered related businesses in the same real estate development business as they share the same directors and/or shareholders under the SEC’s related rules and regulations which TFD however has not yet re-organized to subject to its control. For better transparency under TFD’s own management and for compliance with practices stipulated under the Securities and Exchange Act, B.E 2535 (1992) pertaining protection of minor shareholders, related companies have already issued a letter disclosing the list of properties and lands held thereby and provided a covenant to TFD that they shall in no case conduct any business that will directly or indirectly compete with TFD; neither will they do anything with the lands held thereby on a commercial basis that could be regarded as competing with TFD. In addition, they covenant to offer the right to TFD, first and foremost before selling to someone else, to buy such property development projects and/or lands in order to minimize an opportunity to create any conflict of interest with TFD.

Risk Factors 1. Operation risk of the Group of Companies

1.1 Legal risk relating to the real estate sector Amendments of laws, rules and regulations relating to the real estate sector such as the Land Development Act, zoning regulations, the town and city planning laws and attempts to set more areas as green zones defined as farm and rural areas and fewer areas as purple zone catered for industrial activity could expose the Group to a possible risk. Such amendments may affect the Group’s operation or delay the Group’s ongoing projects. The Group manages this risk by studying and consistently monitoring possible regulatory changes for to stay ready for possible change. 1.2 Risk from delay of the TFD Industry Estate Project (Phase II), as a result of change and adjustment of master plan or the Bangpakong Community, Chachaoengsao Province’s town planning master plan. An industrial estate developer is required to submit a master plan together with a conceptual design and other supporting documents to the Industrial Estate Authority of Thailand (IEAT) for approval. The master plan has to correspond to relevant laws, rules and regulations. In case of legal or regulatory amendment, the developer must update its master plan to correspond to the change. That’s why there is likelihood for the TFD Phase 2 Industrial Estate Project to be delayed as a result of change and adjustment of its master plan. In addition, based on the Ministerial Regulation which has enforced the 2011 comprehensive town and city planning of the Bangpakong Community, Chachaoengsao Province, land under area No. 6.2 where the TFD Phase 2 Industrial Estate is located is classified s rural and farm lands (Green Zone) and therefore not allowed for industrial purpose. However, the Green Zone can be used for contruction of a warehouse at September 30, 2014, the Company is seeking permission from the authorities to change certain parts of the land under area No. 6.2 into land for industrial and warehousing purpose (Purple Zone), a process which could further delay this project. The Town and Country Planning Board has already approved the amendment and a public hearing was already conducted to which stakeholders were invited to review the amended plan, requirements and specifications. The Company continues to study and monitor possible regulatory changes for any adjustment of the master plan, conceptual design and other supporting documents to accommodate possible change without delay. 1.3 Risk from the legal dispute over the Colonial Khao Tao Huahin Project In 2012, VAL Commercial Associates Co Ltd (a company associated with the Milford Group which operates a hotel and a golf course in an area close to the Colonial Khao Tao Huahin Project) sued Tambon Paknam Pran Local Adminsitration Organization and TFD as a co-defendant with the Central Administrative Court alleging that a construction permit had been issued despite the project was less than 200 meters setback from the seashore line as required by the Notification of Minsitry of Natural Resources and Environment, making the issuance of this permit an illegal one. The firm asked the Court to withdraw the permit and to temporarily suspend the project’s construction until upon the Court’s final decision. The Central Adminsitration Court did order the construction to be temporarily suspended.


Annual Report 2014

144 TFD subsequently appealed the Central Adminsitrative Court’s order with the Supreme Administrative Court to withdraw such order. As of March 27, 2014, the Supreme Adminsitrative Court did revoke the Central Administrative Court’s suspension order. However, the Central Administrative Court is in the process of ruling the case. As of December 31, 2014, TFD already invested Baht 422.59 million in the project. Yet, if the Central Administrative Court rules against TFD, we are still able to appeal the Court’s decision or the Central Adminsitrative Court’s order with the Supreme Administrative Court. If eventually, the Supreme Adminstrative Court rules against TFD which will prevent us from constructing this project based on its original design, we would amend the design to be in compliance with the law which however may reduce the project’s size or the firm may consider selling the project to other investors. If TFD is losing the case or if there is any court ruling or order to terminate the construction permit, TFD will sue Tambon Paknam Pran Local Admnistrationi Organization for compensation and an opportunity cost in the project. Brook Real Esate Co Ltd, the property appraiser, has appraised the project to be valued at Baht 589 million which is higher than TFD’s current investment in the project. 1.4 Risk from sourcing additional lands for the development of the TFD Phase 2 Industrial Estate Project As of December 31, 2014, the Company bought approximately 1,211.80 rai of additional vacant land in the Phase 2 project. The land which is located close to the project’s Phase 1 is part of the Company’s plan to expand its Phase 2 project by another 2,500 rai. It is currently doing landscape architecture, designing infrastructure and preparing an EIA report for submission to the authorities. The Company therefore could be exposed to a risk of not able to buy as much land for the development of the TFD Phase 2 project as it needs or at a location it wishes. It may also be exposed to higher land prices which could deprive the Company of a chance to achieve the land size and location as required in the TFD Phase 2 project development plan; or which could result in higher costs of project development and thereby may affect the Company’s financial position and operation results. However, the Company manages this risk by signing a contract with property brokers to negotiate land prices upon the Company’s conditions as well as to complete land purchase transactions. The Company’s property brokers are both from outside Chachoengsao Province and residents in the area who help facilitating the attempt. 1.5 Risk from the shortage of construction contractors Construction contractors are vital to the real estate sector. The Company and its subsidiaries therefore could be exposed to a shortage of contractors which could delay the Group’s construction projects and project development plans from original schedules and which may affect the Group’s financial position and operation results. However, the Company and subsidiaries manage the risk by sourcing construction contractors through a bidding process. After selecting a contractor, the Company and subsidiaries will monitor his activity and evaluate his performance based on quality of his work. Contractor passing an evaluation by the Company and subsidiaries will have his name kept in the Approved Supplier List for opportunity to work in the Group’s future projects. 1.6 Risk from economic and political conditions The business of both the Company and subsidiaries may be affected from economic and political volatility as well as other macroeconomic factors. This refers especially to the industrial estate business, the property development business which offers standard factory/warehouse buildings and the office space for rent business since their major clients are foreign operators who could curtail or relocate their investments from Thailand and thereby reduce demands for factory. The risk may affect the Group’s financial position and operation results.

However, the Group manages the risk by diversifying its business which now ranges from industrial estate projects to residential projects and office towers for rent. Besides, the Group provides alternatives for business operators to either buy or lease land, factory and warehouse building to reduce their investment risk which not only answers to their need but also reduces fluctuated demands the Group usually experienced by economic, political and other macroeconomic factors. 1.7 Risk from lease agreement renewal The business in which standard factory or warehouse buildings are built for customers to rent in several industrial estates or industrial zones operated by the Company and subsidiaries is one of the Group’s major sources of incomes. In addition, incomes from property management directly vary with rent incomes derived from the property. As a result, the Company and subsidiaries are exposed to risk from having to secure new customers or from the fact that most lease agreements for existing clients are short-term. An average term of a lease agreement is three years which when due may not be renewed by customers and therefore could affect the Group’s future incomes. However, based on past performances, occupancy rate of standard factory and warehouses buildings of the Company and TISCOM remained as high as 70-90 per cent where some were 100 per cent fully rented. In other words, we could not build enough factory and warehouse buildings to respond to customer’s need. Besides, most customers renew the agreements which hardly leave the factory and warehouse vacant. The risk in this area remains low and the Company can compete with other contenders. SG’s office space for rent business is also exposed to a risk of tenants not renewing lease agreements of which the term is mostly three years. If a lot of tenants choose not to renew the agreement and SG could not secure new tenants, this could directly affect cash flows and operating results of both SG and the Company. However, based on past performances, SG’s occupancy rate was as high as 80-90 per cent and most customers opted to renew their lease agreements since SG’s office towers are strategically located. The risk is therefore low and the business is considered competitive. 1.8 Risk from the renewal of rights to lease and sub-lease in the office building business เSG has invested in the right to lease the land and SG Tower 1 Building by signing an agreement with the Office of the Privy Purse. SG has also invested in the right to sub-lease the land together with the Millenia Office Building (SG Tower II) by signing an agreement with GF Holdings Co Ltd to operate an office building for rent. The rental term between SG and the Office of Privy Purse is 30 years with the term set to expire in October 2023 or approximately nine years from now. Meanwhile, the sub-lease term between SG and GF Holdings Co Ltd is 30 years and will expire in November 2025 or 11 years from now. SG is exposed to a risk of not being able to renew the lease and the sub-lease agreement with the Office of Privy Purse and SG Holdings Co Ltd, respectively. This could materially affect TFD and its subsidairies’ financial position and performances in the future. In 2014, SG earned Baht 211.19 million from rent and service fees which was translated into Baht 39.07 million worth of net profit or an account of 18.50% of the total revenues.


Annual Report 2014

146 1.9 Risk from having to pay compensation under agreements executed between the Company and its subsidiaries vs the M-II Property Fund In December 2012 and August 2013, TFD and TISCOM agreed to sell their properties consisting of land and factories for rent in the TFD Industrial Estate, the Navanakorn Industrial Zone and the Laemchabang Industrial Estate to the M-II Property Fund. In addition, TISCOM also transferred the right of land lease in the Laemchabang Industrial Estate to the property fund. It also agreed to sell the land together with structure and buildings built for rent located in the Kingkaew Project thereto. In the agreement mentioned above, the following has been agreed which could result in the Company and TISCOM paying a compensation or having an additional expense to pay in the future. Details are as follows. 1. An agreement by TFD and TISCOM in relation to the M-II Property Fund’s right to lease in the agreement to lease a land belonged to the Port Authority of Thailand (PAT): TFD and TISCOM have agreed to be mutually and severally liable to compensate Baht 10 million worth of damage to the M-II Property Fund if the Fund cannot register the renewal of the rights to lease PAT’s land to be equal at least to the land lease term under the land lease agreement done with the Industrial Estate Authority of Thailand. 2. An agreement for factories located in land plots under construction and factories located in land plots with no lease agreement (Guarantee rent and service fee rates): TFD has agreed to guarantee a minimum rental and service rate of Baht 200 per square meter for land and factory located in land plots under construction or land plots with no lease agreement signed with any lessee or already with such lease agreement where payment of the rent or service fee has not yet been made or where the rental term is fewer than six months to the M-II Property Fund for three years from the day the property ownership is transferred. 3. An agreement relating to TISCOM’s asset (in case the land in the Kingkaew Project is expropriated): TFD and TISCOM have mutually and severally agreed to compensate the M-II Property Fund. The amount will be calculated from a compensation per square meter multiplied by the number of land plots affected by land expropriation if all or part of the Kingkaew land is expropriated. In addition, TFD and TISCOM have also agreed to build, replace, renovate or repair the property to its original condition ready for use prior to the land expropriation if the expropriation prevents the M-II Property Fund or smaller lessees to exploit it or if any part of the property has to be built, replaced, renovated or repaired. 4. An agreement relating to TISCOM’s asset (if no lease agreement can be renewed with the Huabcham Group): Under this agreement, TFD and TISCOM have agreed to compensate Baht 40 million to the M-II Property Fund if the Fund can neither renew the lease agreement with the Huabcham Family (a lessor under the land lease and development agreement with TISCOM) nor register the lease for 30 years. 5. An agreement relating to TISCOM’s asset (rent and service fee guaranteed): TFD and/or TISCOM have agreed to guarantee the rental and service fee at a minimum rate of Baht 180 per square meter for TISCOM’s properties without contract yet with small lessees or of which the rental term is fewer than six months. The guaranteed fee will be paid to the M-II Fund throughout the three-year period. 6. An agreement to guarantee the factory construction: TFD agrees to guarantee the construction of the factory for five years starting from the day the M-II Property Fund registers to take transfer of the factory building.

As a result, TFD and TISCOM may be exposed to a risk of having to pay a compensation based on what has been agreed above with the M-II Property Fund which will add more expense burden to TFD and TISCOM. However, we have estimated a minimum rental fee guarantee which TFD and TISCOM have to pay the M-II Property Fund (under Clause 2 and 4 above) for a period of 2-12 months and for two years, respectively, before booking it by deducting it from profit resulted from sales of real estate property for investment purpose. We have also estimated the factory construction guarantee (under Clause 6) to be paid to the M-II Property Fund where the amount has been booked as a cost of sales in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Meanwhile, the period during which an estimated guarantee for minimum rent income of each factory is to be paid is not the same as this depends on forecast of the sales department. 1.10 Risk from dependence on major clients TFD’s subsidiary has invested in two projects of warehouses and factories for rent in the UK, each of which is entirely rented by one single major tenant which could pose a risk of the single tenant not renewing the lease agreement and thereby affecting future incomes of both TFD and its subsidiary. However, the tenant has already renewed the lease agreement (of which the term remains for no fewer than 10 years) and this very same tenant is keen to renew the lease agreement again. Besides, the tenant has leased this warehouse and factory for his business for a long time. Moving the factory to a new location will cost the tenant a lot of expenses in the procurement and relocation of both assets and machinery. 1.11 Risk from exchange rates As TFD’s subsidiary has invested in the UK, incomes, expenses, assets and liabilities are booked in a foreign currency (Pound sterling), an exchange rate volatility could result in the Company enjoying profit or loss from the exchange rates. However, as of December 31, 2014, investment revenues in the UK accounted for 2.11% of the Company’s total revenues in 2014. The exchange rate risk therefore remained low.

2 Financial Risk 2.1 Risk from interest rates and Bank of Thailand’s rules and regulations on the real estate sector Risk from interest rate change 1. Impact to customer’s home-buying decision Since most targeted customers in the condominium business will apply for residential loans from financial institutions, interest rates and loan payment conditions are crucial to their decision to buy a condominium unit. If loan interest is up, this will affect the customer’s costs of fund which could delay his/her buying decision. The Company manages this risk by studying customer’s behavior and needs before offering sales and down payment conditions that could minimize their financial burden when buying a condominium unit. 2. Impact to the Group’s costs of fund: Since the Group seeks loans from financial institutions to develop various real estate projects now and in the future, increase of interest rates will also affect the Group’s financial costs.


Annual Report 2014

148 Risk from changes of the Bank of Thailand’s regulations relating to the real estate sector At present, the Bank of Thailand closely monitors quality of loans extended by commercial banks which has made them stricter when approving customer loans. Besides, loan approval procedures were adjusted and loan amounts given to general customers who may not be major business were reduced compared to collaterals. As a result, this group of customers is required to place a higher down payment when applying for home loan from financial institutions, an act which could affect their purchasing power and decision. On the other hand, the fact that commercial banks are stricter when extending loans helps the Group screen and reach customers who are really qualified and indeed having a real purchasing power. 2.2 Liquidity risk and risk from accessing funding sources The property development business is a capital-intensive business where a lot of investments are needed from the start to buy land, develop the property, construct buildings and conduct sales activities. All of these activities require money before the Group gets paid from the majority of sales values on the day the ownership is transferred which will be realized only after the construction is completed. As a result, the Group has to endure a project management period for 2-5 years depending on the project’s type and size. In other words, the business is exposed to a risk of having to manage financial liquidity and accessing funding sources required in the business. Yet, the Company manages this risk by carefully reviewing a development plan which starts from selecting a site, studying and analyzing the project’s feasibility and hiring project consultant to ensure success to every project. In addition, the Company and subsidiaries mobilize funds from a variety of channels whether through the capital market or financial institutions to reduce dependency risk from having to depend on a single source of fund.

Revenues from sales of land and factory buildings totaled Baht 327.71 million and Baht 460 million in 2012 and 2013, respectively, which represented 40.37% increase in 2013 during which TFD had sold its land and factory buildings to the M-II Property Fund in Q4. In 2014, TFD had no such revenue from sales of land and factory building as its vacant land was in the process of seeking an approval to be classified as an industrial land (Purple area under the town planning regulation) while its factory buildings remained under construction. Revenue from sale of Condominium units TFD builds residential condominiums in the Central Business District and resort area for sales to the public. At present, it has three condominium projects; namely, the Sukhumvit 15 Residences Project, the Colonial Khao Tao Huahin Project and the Mahadlek Residence Project.

Annual Report 2014

152 2013 was because TFD had completely transferred the ownership in its 59 Heritage Project to buyers in 2012 while VSSL just completed the Sukhumvit 15 Residences Project in late 2013 and thus not much ownership of this project could yet be transferred to their owners. Yet, the 2014 revenue significantly increased after the ownership of condominium units in the Sukhumvit 15 Residences Project continued to be transferred throughout the year. TFD is currently delaying the Colonial Khao Tao Huahin Project after the project has been sued at the Central Administrative Court who ordered a temporary suspension to the construction of the project. TFD appealed to the Supreme Administrative Court to revoke this order. As of March 27, 2014, the Supreme Administrative Court did indeed revoke the temporary suspension order. Regarding the Mahadlek Residences Project, TFD’s Environmental Impact Assessment Report (EIA) had already been approved by the Natural Resources and Environmental Plan and Policy Office since June 10, 2014. The project is currently applying for a construction permit. Revenue from Rental and Services Revenue from rental and services is the revenue attributed to the land and building for rent. In this sector, the Company will acquire the land (purchased or long term leased) , then develop the land and the factory has been built including the infrastructure and utility for long term lease of developed land and ready-built standard factory including office building for rent, which the Company will long term lease land and then develop and build the office building for rent and provide related services.

TFD’s sales expenses totaled Baht 81.76 million, Baht 52.76 million and Baht 65.26 million in 2012, 2013 and 2014, respectively, which represented 6.01%, 5.58% and 4.45% of the total revenues in respective years. Sales expenses in 2013 went down from the previous year after fewer condominium units were transferred, prompting ownership transfer and special business tax expenses to fall as well. Yet, although more condominium ownership was transferred in 2014 than the previous year, sales expenses as a percentage of the total revenues fell as sales revenues from condominium projects rose at a higher rate than the increasing sales expenses. TFD’s administrative expenses totaled Baht 136.12 million, Baht 158.15 million and Baht 252.25 million in 2012, 2013 and 2014, respectively, which accounted for 10%, 16.73% and 17.22% of the total revenues in respective years. Administrative expenses in 2013 increased due to higher expenses pertaining financial and legal advisors to accommodate TFD’s business expansion. The increase of administrative expenses in 2014 was also due to a compensation paid to the M-II Property Fund for rent and service, office building rent, unrealized loss from securities invested for commercial purpose and expenses of a condominium juristic person. Financial expenses TFD’s financial expenses consist of, among a few, interest expenses and fees. In 2012, 2013 and 2014, TFD’s financial expenses stood at 85.52 million, Baht 113.14 million and Baht 305.06 million, respectively. This represented an increase of 32.29% in 2013 after TFD had issued debentures totaling Baht 1.35 billion plus promissory notes (P/N) totaling Baht 1,403.70 million. In 2014, the financial expenses rose 169.63% after TFD had issued Baht 1,693.50 million worth of debentures. In addition, the increase was also contributed by the fact that VSSL had booked its loan interest as an expense since completely-built condominiums may no longer be booked as part of the property development’s costs. 2.3 Profitability Gross margin TFD’s gross profit margin stood at 47.98%, 43.17% and 25.61% in 2012, 2013 and 2014, respectively. The gross profit margin fell in 2014 as there was no sales income from land and factory buildings. TFD’s gross profit margin can be divided according to its three groups of business as follows. Gross Profit Margin ( % )

Year 2012

Year 2013

Year 2014

Sale of land and factory building 49.75% 46.91% n/a Sale of condominium units 40.73% 20.20% 23.73% Sale from rental and services 49.15% 39.99% 34.87% Total Gross Margin 47.98% 43.17% 25.61% In this table, the gross profit margin of the business which sells land and factory buildings stood at 49.75% and 46.91% in 2012 and 2013, respectively. In 2012, this was a result of the sales of vacant lands of which the cost was low. A year later, this involved the Group’s sales of land and factory buildings to the M-II Property Fund in Q4. No land or factory building was sold in 2014. The gross profit margin from sales of condominium units totaled 40.73%, 20.20% and 23.73% in 2012, 2013 and 2014, respectively. In 2012, this was the gross profit margin from sales of units under the 59 Heritage Project; while a year later, the falling gross profit margin was due largely to a low gross profit margin enjoyed by the Sukhumvit 15 Residences Project since the project cost was quite high. The gross profit margin of the rental and service business stood at 49.15%, 39.99% and 34.87% in 2012, 2013 and 2014, respectively. The fall in 2013 represented the sales of most factory buildings to the property fund.


Annual Report 2014

156 Operation profit TFD’s operation profit totaled 19.64%, 15% and 0.79% in 2012, 2013 and 2014, respectively. The fall of its operating profit in 2013 and 2014 was due to the fact that the gross profit margin tended to decline while the ratio of sales and administrative expenses to revenues tended to increase. Net profit TFD’s net profit totaled 37.60%, 16.01% and -11.55% in 2012, 2013 and 2014, respectively, due largely to the falling gross profit margin while financial expenses rose.

TFD saw its total assets increase in 2013 after it received more cash resulted from the sales of property to the property fund and the fact that the cost of property development also increased after TFD had bought additional land to develop its TFD Phase II project plus a payment of deposit set to be acquired by a related company. In 2014, the total assets fell after TFD had spent its cash in the operation. The Return on Asset (ROA) ratio totaled 9.82%, 2.25% and -2.09% in 2012, 2013 and 2014, respectively. The ROA fell in 2013 after profits from sales of property for investment purpose had dipped while total assets increased from cash acquired after the sales of property to the property fund towards the end of financial period as well as increasing costs of property development. In 2014, the ROA fell due to the operating loss. The Return on Fixed Assets ratio totaled 54.06%, 28.60% and -17.92% in 2012, 2013 and 2014, respectively. Its 2013 decline reflected the fall of TFD’s sales profit of its property. In 2014, the returns on fixed assets ratio also felt due to TFD’s operation loss. The asset turnover ratio totaled 0.27, 0.14 and 0.19 in 2012, 2013 and 2014, respectively. The decline in 2013 was due to declining profit generated from properties sold for investment purpose while total assets resulted from investment in real estate development projects which could not yet generate an immediate income in the same fiscal period increased instead.

This represented an increase of Baht 703.92 million or 17.08% in 2013 and Baht 378.61 million or 7.85% a year later.

Long-term loans from financial institutions TFD’s long-term loans from financial institutions stood at Baht 1,734.97 million, Baht 1,049.22 million and Baht 1,260.44 million in 2102, 2013 and 2014, respectively. This was down by Baht 685.75 million or 39.53% in 2013 before it rose by Baht 211.22 million or 20.13% in 2014. The decline of long-term loans from financial institutions in 2013 can be explained from the fact that the Group had restructured its capital by using money received from the issuance and offering of debentures to repay loans from financial institutions to reduce its funding costs. In 2014, the increase was due to TISCOM’s borrowing to construct its warehouses in the Tha Sa-an Project. Shareholders’ equity TFD’s total shareholders’ equity valued Baht 2,009.60 million, Baht 1,628.10 million and Baht 2,169.03 million in 2012, 2013 and 2014, respectively. This represented a fall of 18.98% or Baht 381.50 million in 2013 and an increase of 33.22% or Baht 540.93 million in 2014. The fall in 2013 could be explained by a cash dividend payment totaling Baht 90.28 million during the fiscal period. Besides, TFD booked the difference between the cost of business merger and VSSL’s net book value totaling Baht 141.04 million. This difference was booked as an equity premium resulted from the business merger and acquisition to remain under the same control as a separate item under the topic of other companies within the Shareholders’ Equity section. In 2014, the shareholders’ equity rose following the issuance of capital-increase shares in November 2014 when TFD offered 200 million capital-increase ordinary shares in the private placement. Debt to Equity ratio (D/E ratio) TFD’s D/E ratio was 1.97, 3.72 and 2.42 in 2012, 2013 and 2014, respectively. The increase of the D/E ratio at the end of 2013 was due to the issuance of P/N and debentures during the year, pushing its total liabilities to increase. However, the ratio fell by the end of 2014 following the issuance of capital-increase shares in November 2014 when it offered 200 million shares in the private placement. 4.2 Investment Cost Investment cost of the Company and its subsidiaries, have the main objective to expand the Group’s business.

In 2014, cash flow spent in the operation went down Baht 769.45 million after an advance payment for land by a connected business was re-adjusted and booked instead as a short-term loan under cash flow from investment activities instead and after TFD had earned more revenues from sales of its condominium units. TFD’s cash flow from investment activities stood at Baht 738.46 million, Baht -56.38 million and Baht -483.15 million in 2012, 2013 and 2014, respectively. The fact that its cash flow from investment activities in 2012 remained positive was because TFD had received Baht 1,000.60 million cash from sales of property for investment purpose. Yet, cash flow from investment activities a year later in 2013 was in red due mainly to cash paid to buy investment funds in VSSL. In 2014, cash flow for investment activities rose as a result of TISCOM’s investment in Barnsley as well as increasing short-term loans to connected businesses. TFD’s cash flow from financing activities totaled Baht 557.81 million, Baht 2,483.38 million and Baht 167.32 million in 2012, 2013 and 2014, respectively. The cash flow from financing activities in 2013 rose as a result of short-term loans from financial institutions for investment in the TFD Phase II Project and the Colonial Khao Tao Project and for use as a working capital. In 2014, cash flow from financing activities went down after the firm redeemed its debentures and repaid its short-term loan borrowed from financial institutions.

At the end of 2012, 2013 and 2014, the current ratio stood at 1.64, 1.20 and 2.45, respectively. The decline of the ratio in 2013 was mainly due to an increase of short-term loans from financial institutions and debentures issued for the purpose of business expansion. Meanwhile, the current ratio in 2014 mainly increased from end of 2013 after short-term loans from financial institutions and debentures due for maturity within one year fell following the repayment and redemption by the Company during that fiscal period. 4.4 Ability to provide the additional fund At the end of the year 2013, the Company has undrawn loans as follows: Undrawn portion (million)
