Message from THE Chairman
Having assumed the position of Chairman of the Board of Directors of U City with the intention of reviving U City, change has begun. We’ve restructured the business, refined policies for investment and business operations and are divesting non-core assets. U City is no longer just a generic real estate development company, but a company ready and willing to invest in diverse real estate opportunities globally. Our overseas acquisitions have contributed to U City’s growth, as is clearly seen from the increase in total revenue compared to last year. Our local and international management teams are ready to invest in real estate and turn opportunities into value. In January 2018, the Company held an Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting to seek shareholders’ approval for a capital increase and to use proceeds from the capital increase to transfer the real estate businesses under Unicorn Enterprise Limited (UE). The assets acquired will generate income for the Company, especially revenues from sales of condominium projects along mass transit lines under our joint venture with Sansiri Public Company Limited. The proceeds of the capital increase are sufficient to drive the business forward. We would like to thank the shareholders for their support and confidence in the new direction that U City is taking. Having completed the transfer of UE, the Board of Directors and executives are confident that in the future, the Company will return to profit and pay dividends to its shareholders.
1.4 Message from the Chairman
All of these important milestones mark the rebirth of U City as a leader in investing and developing real estate globally with solid fundamentals, and sustainable, high growth potential in the future. Of paramount importance shall be the creation of value for shareholders. To that end, the Board of Directors’ focus is on good corporate governance and transparency. Every policy and investment shall be prudently reviewed for the benefit of the shareholders. On behalf of the Board of Directors, I would like to express my appreciation to all stakeholders for their trust, hard work and dedication. I especially express my appreciation to all U City executives and employees in locally and overseas for their support and adaptability during a time of significant change. On the cusp of an increasingly buoyant future I am steadfastly confident and optimistic that U City will become bigger, stronger and better.
Mr. Keeree Kanjanapas Chairman of the Board of Directors U City Public Company Limited

Message from the Chief Executive Officer
In 2017, U City Public Company Limited has created a solid foundation for expansion along numerous dimensions for long term profitable growth. Our investment in a hotel business including an attractive portfolio of hotels, a hotel management platform in Europe, mainly in Germany, Czech Republic and Poland, has firmly propelled us to become a leading hospitality player in Thailand. The contribution of Vienna House to the performance of the Company has and will continue to be considerable. Future upside can be achieved through this platform as we continuously increase the number of hotels under ‘Vienna House’ and ‘Vienna House Easy’. Moreover, we are excited by the prospect of a future brand in the pipeline, which will address contemporary preferences and trends. To achieve sustainable growth, we are not focusing only on revenue and long term profitable growth but also on investment management and capital allocation. In order to reach sustainability, the Company’s 5-pronged strategy includes: (i) diversified and prudent investment (ii) efficient use of capital and capital recycling (iii) sustainability through responsiveness to changes in consumer preferences as well as consciousness of the environment and community, (iv) partnerships that enable us to access expertise and new business opportunities and finally (v) undertaking development and investment of property located in close proximity to mass transit lines to benefit from the ‘mass transit premium’.
The aforementioned corporate strategy cannot be effectively executed without the support of capable, dedicated human resources. To ensure we remain on track, we are committed to develop technical competency within the organization, to create transparency, to motivate management and employees and to share know-how within the organization and allow best practices to take root. Our long and exciting journey has only begun. In March 2018, we successfully raised additional capital to finance the acquisition of the selected property businesses of BTS Group Holdings Limited (BTSG) and to strengthen our capital base for future expansion. The condominium development joint-venture with Sansiri creates a significant income source from sales and gives a good balance with our recurring income assets. The Asian-base hospitality portfolio under U and Eastin brand, an office building and an international school will unlock future synergies that will benefit all shareholders. Finally, on behalf of the management team, I would like to express our appreciation to our shareholders, directors, executives, financial institutions, business partners and customers for their unwavering trust, support and commitment to our company.

Relationship with Major Shareholders As at 28 April 2015, BTSG acquired 35.64% of the total issued shares of the Company and also directly or indirectly engages in the property business through its subsidiaries under Unicorn Enterprise Company Limited which is a subsidiary of BTSG. To eliminate the current business conflict of interest or overlap between the Company and BTSG, the Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders No. 1/2018 held on 4 January 2018, has approved the entire business transfer (Entire Business Transfer: EBT) of Unicorn Enterprise Company Limited (UE), a subsidiary in which BTS Group Holdings Public Company Limited (“BTSG”) holds 100 percent of its total shares where UE engages in business through holding shares in 36 companies (Holding Company) which engage in the property business. After the completion of the EBT Transaction, BTSG will still hold some of the remaining property entities engaged in the property business directly or through its subsidiaries. Therefore, to manage conflicts of interest in the property development business between BTSG and the Company after completion of the EBT Transaction, as long as BTSG is a shareholder of the Company directly or indirectly holding not less than 10 percent of the total issued shares of the Company in aggregate. BTSG agrees to grant the Company the following three rights: (A) Right of first refusal to purchase or to take on lease of land and/or buildings of BTSG and/or its subsidiaries and to purchase shares in BTSG’s subsidiaries holding land and/or buildings (“ROFR”).
In the event that BTSG or any of its subsidiaries wishes to (a) sell or lease out any land and/or buildings used in the property business, or (b) sell shares in any subsidiary holding land and/or buildings used in the property business which are currently held by or will be acquired in the future, to a third party, BTSG shall first offer, or shall cause its respective subsidiary to agree to first offer the right to purchase or to take on lease of the respective land and/or buildings, or to purchase shares in such subsidiary (as the case may be), to
2.6.1 Relationship with Major Shareholders
the Company and/or its subsidiaries subject to the conditions and at the price not less favorable than those offered by BTSG or its respective subsidiary to the third party.
ROFR granted for (a) the land and/or buildings used in the property business, or (b) the purchase of shares in BTSG’s subsidiaries holding land and/or buildings used in the property business that BTSG or it subsidiaries currently hold (which will not be transferred to the Company in the Entire Business Transfer Transaction).
(B) Call option to purchase or to take on lease of land and/or buildings and to purchase shares in any subsidiary holding land and/or buildings (the “Call Option”).
In the event that the Company and/or any of its subsidiaries wishes to (a) purchase or to take on lease of land and/or buildings used in the property business or (b) purchase shares in any subsidiary holding land and/or buildings used in the property business which are currently held by or will be acquired in the future by BTSG or its subsidiaries, BTSG undertakes to sell or lease or to cause its respective subsidiary to sell or lease, such land and/or buildings or shares in such subsidiary (as the case may be) to the Company and/ or its subsidiaries, at a fair value appraised by an independent appraiser, whose name appears on the SEC’s list, and whom the Company and BTSG jointly appoint, provided that Company must exercise the Call Option before BTSG or its respective subsidiary obtain an offer to purchase land and/or buildings or an offer to purchase shares in the subsidiary holding land and/ or buildings from a third party. For example, if BTSG obtains an offer to purchase a land from a third party at a price higher than the appraised value, and has issued a letter to the Company inquiring whether the Company wishes to exercise ROFR as set out on clause 2 above, in such case, the Company will only be able to exercise ROFR to purchase the land and will not

be able to exercise the Call Option to purchase the land at the appraised value.
The Call Option granted for (a) the land and/or buildings used in the property business, or (b) the purchase of shares in BTSG’s subsidiaries holding land and/or buildings used in the property business that BTSG or it subsidiaries currently hold (which will not be transferred to the Company in the Entire Business Transfer Transaction).
(C) Right to be appointed as a property manager under a property management agreement and right to be appointed as a real estate agent under a real estate agency agreement. 1) For the property projects which are currently owned by BTSG or its subsidiaries (which will not be transferred to the Company in the Entire Business Transfer Transaction), BTSG shall appoint, or shall cause its respective subsidiary to appoint, the Company and/or its subsidiaries as a property manager of the relevant projects where BTSG or its respective subsidiary will enter into a property management agreement, whose terms and conditions will be agreed on an arm’s length basis, with the Company and/ or its subsidiaries. 2) In addition, for the land and/or buildings which are currently owned or will be acquired in the future by BTSG or its subsidiaries, including property projects which are currently for sale or lease and are owned by BTSG or its subsidiary (which will not be transferred to the Company in the Entire Business Transfer Transaction), BTSG shall appoint, or shall cause its respective subsidiary to appoint, the Company and/or its subsidiaries as a real estate agent to sell or lease such property where BTSG or its respective subsidiary will enter into a real estate agency agreement, whose terms and conditions will be agreed on an arm’s length basis, with U City and/or its subsidiaries. 44
However, in the case that (a) the Company refuses the aforementioned appointment as the property manager or real estate agent to sell or lease such property or (b) the Company and/or its subsidiaries do not comply 2.6.1 Relationship with Major Shareholders
with the property management agreement, or the real estate agency agreement (as the case may be), giving rise to BTSG and/or its respective subsidiary to terminate such agreement, BTSG and/or its respective subsidiary shall have the right to manage and/or sell or lease such property on its own and/or to appoint a third party as a property manager or a real estate agent to sell or lease such property (as the case may be).
In addition to the foregoing, BTSG has set a policy on its property business where BTSG will not engage in the property development business that competes with or overlaps or may compete with or overlap the property development business of the Company and/or its subsidiaries.

Moreover, in consideration for the purchase or investment in the land or property, the management of the Company will preliminarily consider the appropriateness of the land or property in which the Company will purchase or invest before proposing the same to the Board of Directors for consideration and approval. In the invitation letter to the Board of Directors’ meeting, the company secretary of the Company will specifiy the names of the directors having conflict of interest in each agenda where such directors shall not attend or vote in such agendas.

Industry and Business Overview Overview of the Thai Economy in 2017
GDP growth for 2017 was 3.9%. This was a marked improvement from the previous year’s growth of 3.3%. Key factors for the growth were the surge in exports of 9.7%, growth in private consumption of 3.2% and private investment of 1.7% being partially offset by a decline in public investment of 1.2%. Economic expansion of major trading partners, particularly the USA, Eurozone countries, China and Japan drove broad demand for Thai manufactured and agricultural products. Headline inflation for the year remained benign at 0.7% but on an upward trajectory. The Bank of Thailand has maintained its policy rate unchanged throughout the year at 1.5%. The Baht continued to appreciate to the USD up 3.9% to 33.93 Baht per USD. The strong Baht remains a concern for exporters and to a lesser extent the tourism sector as this makes Thai goods and services relatively more expensive in USD terms. The Baht owes its strength to the considerable current account surplus of 10.8% of GDP in 2017.
Overview of the Hotel Business in Thailand in 2017
According to data from the Ministry of Tourism and Sports, total international arrivals were 35.4mn, growing 8.8% from the previous year. Total tourism receipts amounted to THB 1.82tn, an increase of 11.7% from last year. The nationalities of tourists remains dominated by 3 countries: China, Malaysia and South Korea. Despite the year’s 10-month mourning period leading up to His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej’s Cremation, where many people and corporates in respect to the late King and in sombre spirit, cancelled a number of celebratory events, weddings and the like, the tourism sector seems to continue to perform perennially well. In 2017 Thais undertook approximately 156.2mn trips and spent some THB 930bn within the country. The government’s encouragement of domestic tourism has been a boon to hotel operators for the most part, where the majority of tourist spending is made.

Certain challenges remain in the industry. Tourism activity is highly concentrated. A handful of provinces - some 5% of the total according to the Tourism Authority of Thailand - have enjoyed the vast majority of interest, development and investment. Such concentrated development places a strain on the environment, the local infrastructure, inequity and distortions to local market conditions. Despite pushback from the government, hotel associations and other interest groups, online marketplaces for lodging such as ‘Airbnb’ remains a major supplier of rooms for the market at often very competitive prices. Hotels have responded with offering its guests more personalised services, technology, big data and conveniences. Online Travel Agencies (OTAs) dominate in the way people find, compare and book their lodging. Hotel operators need to bear considerable commissions expenses which often undermine their margins. Hotels have put considerable effort and investment in loyalty programs, direct bookings or increasing their bargaining power to mitigate these costs.
Overview of European Hotel Business in 2017
According to the UN World Tourism Organisation (UNWTO), international tourist arrivals grew by approximately 6.7% in 2017 to reach 1,322mn. This is well above the 7-year long-term growth rate of 4.0% and is the strongest result recorded within that time period. Europe in particular recorded enviable growth of 8.48% whereas Asia-Pacific grew 5.8%, Middle East grew 4.8% and the Americas grew 2.9%. Within Europe, international tourist arrivals to Southern Europe and the Mediterranean rose by 12.6%, Western Europe by 6.6% and Northern Europe by 5.1% and Central and Eastern Europe by 5.0%.

According to the European Travel Commission Report, our key markets in Europe, namely Germany - which is considered a developed tourist destination - and Poland and Czech Republic, which are considered emerging destinations, all enjoyed robust tailwinds with the growth in international arrivals recorded at 5.0%, 10.8% and 10.4% from the previous year, respectively. This compares well with the European average of 8.4%. International overnights also rose 3.5%, 10.8% and 9.5% over the same period last year, respectively. Europe itself faces its own set of challenges in sustaining its tourism industry. Crime and terrorism has risen over the last few years, causing significant anxiety among travellers and disrupting the traditional image of many major European capitals as safe and stable as well as increasing competition from non-European countries for tourism, which often have less stringent visa requirements.
Overview of Thailand Condominium Business in 2017
According to Colliers Thailand, the number of condominium launches increased by 49.6% to over 58,400 units while average take-up rate fell slightly to 57%.

For almost all the remaining condominium launches, some 43.1% of total launches were in the ‘Upper-end’ segment or higher where prices go for over THB 100,000/sqm and above. Developers continue to focus on developing near mass transit stations where take-up rates are generally substantially higher despite higher prices for buyers (mass transit premium). Condominiums located within 200m or less enjoyed takeup rates of 82% (up from 75% last year) and 61% for condominiums located between 500 to 1,000m from mass transit stations. 60

Overall land prices, though still at historically elevated levels and still transacting at record prices, has slowed down somewhat in its upward march. According to CBRE, banks have also been conservatively on its lending and that may have had a significant impact on speculative land buying, thereby slowing down overall land price appreciation rate. Nevertheless demand for prime areas continues to be strong not only for condominiums but as developers increasingly look towards diversifying their revenue mix to including recurring income from office, retail and hotel developments.
Overview of UK Office Business in 2017
According to JLL Research, the overall UK office space market last year recorded stable net absorption and prime rents, despite the uncertainty of Brexit negotiations, some companies announcing publicly their plans to scale back their London operations and historically high amount of office space being supplied from development completions. There were expectations that the ongoing Brexit negotiations would precipitate a steep fall in occupier demand. A slowdown in take-up rates was recorded within the year, albeit temporary, as momentum recovered, keeping the take-up rate above the 10-year average. Million sqm

According to CBRE Research, overall vacancy rate increased slightly to 7.8% at the end of 2017 from 7.7% at the end of the previous year. Total supply of office space stood at 8.8mn sqm, up 2.6% from the previous year as additional office buildings became operational, particularly in nonCBD areas. As a result of the steady demand and take-up for office space, office rental rates continued to appreciate with grade A office rents in CBD areas averaging THB 994/ sqm/month, up 4.3% from the previous year. The highest rental growth rates were achieved by grade A office rents in non-CBD areas at an average of THB 810/sqm/month, up 5.2% from last year. A majority of new office space supply was located in these areas where strong demand for quality office space allowed landlords to retain strong asking power. Million sqm 9.6%

3.3 Industry and Business Overview
Overview of the Company’s Hotel Business
The Company’s hotel business overview in 2017 saw a continuous uptrend from 2016. Despite more intense competition in terms of new hotel investments as well as mergers or acquisitions of hotels in the market, most new operators focused on developing 3-star hotels by purchasing existing hotels to remodel and rebrand to attract more tourists. Moreover, the recovery of event hosting market such as meetings, seminars, weddings and events should help generate income for venue service providers, allowing the hotel business to grow by 3.7 - 5.5 percent, a slight decrease from 2016’s growth at 6 percent (Source: Kasikorn Research Center). However, the Company’s hotel business comprises mostly 4 - 5-star hotels, which have lower competition. As a result, the operating results of Company’s hotel business grew at a rate of 4 - 16 percent, which is higher than the estimated market average. At present, the Company invests in 3 domestic hotels comprising:
1) Avani Khon Kaen Hotel and Convention Center
Target Customer Khon Kaen is the center of trade and education of the northeastern region of Thailand as well as a top destination for tourists who wish to experience traditional customs and way of life.

Moreover, it is the center of trade and transportation as well as the gate to Indochina and south China, making Khon Kaen one of the leading MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conventions, and Events) cities in Thailand. Therefore, the hotel’s target customers are tourists as well as private and public sectors seeking seminar venues, as the hotel has the biggest venue in the province catering to a variety of activities. Thai tourists made up most of the hotel’s customer group. However, British and American tourist arrivals were higher than the past year. The occupancy rate for 2017 was approximately 69 percent.

3.4 Management Discussion & Analysis
3.5
Business Outlook 2018 The Office of the National Economic and Social Development Board (NESDB) forecasts GDP growth of 3.64.6% buoyed by accelerating global economic growth that is expected to drive exports to grow by 6.8%, expected expansion of government spending by 10% and a recovery in private consumption and investment, increasing by 3.2% and 3.7%, respectively. Headline inflation is expected at between 0.9-1.9%, an acceleration from 0.7% in the previous year, though within manageable and desirable levels. Household debt-to-GDP, remains at historically elevated levels, but is expected to continue to fall as the rate of GDP growth overtakes the increase in overall debt. The strong Baht, which appreciated in 2017 by 3.9% YoY to an average rate of THB 33.93 per USD and the potential for further appreciation (encouraged by the strong current account surplus, more positive economic outlook and slow pace of further Federal Reserve interest rate hikes) remains a concern, as that may dampen export demand and foreign tourism receipts. The Bank of Thailand’s monetary policy remains somewhat accommodative with the policy rate unchanged at 1.5%. This is broadly in line with other major central banks, which have also kept their monetary policy unchanged. The simultaneous increase in economic growth from major global economies and Thailand’s major trading partners such as the USA, countries within the Eurozone, Japan and China is an encouraging sign of the long-awaited global recovery and a major conducive factor to Thailand’s trade performance. In 2018, the USA is expected to grow by 2.5%, the Eurozone by 2.4%, Japan by 1.2% and China by 6.7%. Certain risks remain however, including the outcome and orderliness of the Brexit negotiations, which have so far yielded little confidence; President Trump’s protectionist trade policies and the potential to trigger trade wars; a possible revival of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade agreement and a potential renegotiation of the NAFTA trade agreement. Other political risks also remain on the table, including the further fracturing of currently
3.5 Business Outlook 2018
strained European cohesion, depending on the result of the upcoming Italian election, and Catalonian independence.
Hotel Business Outlook in Thailand for 2018
The hospitality sector in Thailand is expected to remain robust with the Ministry of Tourism and Sports forecasting around 37.8mn international tourist arrivals, up 6.8% from the previous year and total tourism receipts of THB 1.82tn, an increase of 11.7%. Tourists from China, Malaysia and South Korea comprised 42% of total arrivals in the previous year and are expected to remain major contributors of this growth. The ongoing expansion of international routes from Thailand to more second tier Chinese cities will bring further impetus. Growth in domestic tourism is also expected to be solid with an expected 165.4mn domestic trips undertaken and domestic travel spending targeted to reach THB 990.0bn, a growth of 5.9% and 6.5%, respectively. The government has signaled that it will undertake a number of supportive measures to stimulate domestic travel including the continuation of the THB 15,000 personal income tax deduction program and companies being able to deduct 100% of seminar, lodging and traveling expenses from their corporate income tax in secondary provinces across Thailand.
Hotel Business Outlook in Europe for 2018
The IMF forecasts global GDP growth at 3.7% in 2018 as business and consumer confidence improves. Growth within the Eurozone is expected at 2.0% for 2018. The uplift in global growth is expected to buoy international travel, which is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 3.3% until 2030 by the UNWTO as well as leisure and business travel spending. According to data from STR Global, optimism for the sector will help drive solid RevPAR growth in Europe, where solid demand is paired with relatively modest capacity growth in hotel room supply. In Europe, room supply is expected to grow by below 0.10% compared to the global average of around 0.16%, according to research by JLL. The solid fundamentals of the hospitality sector in Europe are also expected to support growth in net capital inflows as investors continue to view hotel assets as a
ANNUAL REPORT 2017

source of income diversification. Last year, Europe recorded the highest net capital inflows of USD 2.9bn, followed by North America with USD 1.8bn.
Condominium Sector Outlook in Thailand for 2018
According to CBRE Research, the condominium sector in Thailand is expected to benefit from the improving fundamentals as well as improving optimism. Within Bangkok the ongoing rollout of mass transit projects has sparked fierce competition among developers to secure land bank for future development. In the last few years many property developers, both large and small have signed joint-ventures with Japanese partners. Since last year partnerships have broadened to include companies in China, Hong Kong and Singapore. Foreign buyers, especially China and Japan are major contributors to property sales within Bangkok, though most buying is concentrated largely around well-known areas such as on Sukhumvit between Ploenchit and Ekamai, Wireless Road, Langsuan Road, Rama 9 Road and Ratchada. As more peripheral lines begin to open, the challenge is to attract these foreign buyers to new locations.
Office Space Outlook in U.K. for 2018
According to Jones Lang Lasalle (JLL), the overall UK office space market last year recorded stable net absorption and prime rents, despite the uncertainty of Brexit negotiations and some companies announcing publicly their plans to scale back their London operations. Depending on the outcome of the Brexit negotiations, a
72

number of assumptions on future demand remain in flux. Nevertheless, net absorption has rarely been negative over the last 10 years, the city continues to be a top global destination for business and the city’s zoning laws and limited space continues to keep supply growth in check. Nevertheless, certain pressures such as a number of trends will continue to disrupt the industry including co-working spaces, hot desking (where 2 or more employees share one desk) and telecommuting. The low interest rate environment (and subsequently thinner margin spreads) also remains a general impediment to the profitability of the financial services sector, which is the largest employer within the City of London. Continued profitability pressures will push financial services companies to reduce headcount or relocate at least part of their operations to lower cost areas to buoy profits.
Office Space Outlook in Thailand for 2018
CBRE Research expects growth in new office space supply to be around 584,000 sqm by 2021. This is equivalent to an average of approximately 194,700 sqm per year on a smooth basis. Approximately 70% of new supply will be located within the CBD area and 30% of new supply would be Grade A office buildings within the CBD area. Overall, natural demand on an annual basis is sufficient for this level of supply growth, therefore it is expected that vacancy and rental rates remain stable. Competition for land remains fierce as many developers try to balance their development pipeline between generally higher returns of real estate sales with longer-dated, recurring income asset such as office buildings or mixed-use projects.

Risk Factors
Strategic Risks
• Economic Fluctuations, Economic and Political Policies • Readiness to support business expansion
Economic Fluctuation, Economic and Political Policies
The performance of the Company, either from the recurring income of our hotels and office buildings for rent or real estate projects for sale, are all affected by fluctuations or changes in the economic and political situation as well as government policies, both domestically and internationally. For example, the affirmative vote in the referendum held by United Kingdom (‘Brexit’) on the question of whether it should leave or remain in the European Union, resulted in the British Pound’s considerable depreciation and strongly affected the confidence of financial services firms in the United Kingdom. Some of those firms announced their intention to relocate or downsize their offices outside the country. This, coupled with the ongoing uncertainties of the Brexit negotiations continues to impact demand for real estate and office space for rent. Political instability and terrorism in Europe have also affected confidence and raised security concerns, which has impacted the tourism sector. Such incidents may affect the business operation of the Company in the short- and/or long-term. The Company must therefore continuously monitor and be vigilant of situations or incidents that may arise so that it can take steps to mitigate the impact its business plans.
Readiness to support business expansion
for the short-, medium- and long-term with a focus on expanding its business. In order to achieve its plans, the Company conducts analyses of the industry outlook, the economic situation, the political situation and the feasibility of investment of each project in accordance with its risk appetite, capital and human resources as a standard process. As part of its investment strategy, the Company aims to acquire operating businesses or assets, which will facilitate its business expansion and revenue growth. Simultaneously, its planned future development projects will expand the Company considerably. As such, the Company must ensure efficient capital allocation and maximize its asset utilisation to achieve a sufficient return on investment. The Company must also manage its operation and personnel in its subsidiaries to be in line with its business plan. The Company owns significant land bank for future development. In the past several years, land prices have increased significantly, especially along the mass transit routes. This has created challenges to find land with high potential while maintaining a sufficient return and keeping investment costs under control. The Company has to manage these possible risks by closely monitoring market movements, studying and analysing the expansion of major cities in each region for business opportunities. The Company values partnerships as a means to access expertise, new business opportunities, moderate risk and add value in development projects as a factor to strengthening our long-term business.

Operational Risks
• Human Resource Procurement for Business Expansion • Cost Control in Business Operation and Project Development • Compliance and Law
Human Resource Procurement for Business Expansion
the Company is strictly committed to adhering to the aforementioned rules and regulations for the overall benefit of society.
Financial Risks
• Source of fund, Liquidity and Cost of fund • Fluctuations in exchange rate
To achieve the Company’s business goals, a key factor is having human resources with sufficient competence and expertise that is able to support the growth of the business in the short- and long-term. Since 2016, the Company started to invest abroad and launch new development projects. To ensure that the Company has the necessary human resources to support this expansion, the Company provides staff training to enhance the skills and knowledge of its employees. After acquisitions, the management restructures the organisation and administration in order to support and remain aligned with the Company’s current and future business expansion plans.
Source of fund, Liquidity and Cost of fund
Cost Controlling in Business Operation and Project Development
Fluctuation in exchange rate
The Company acknowledges that changes in commodities prices such as oil prices, or the activities of external forces such as mega projects by the government or the ongoing construction projects of other developers, may affect to the price of raw and construction materials and/or create labor shortages, which will directly impact the cost and duration the Company’s projects under development, cash flows and profit of the Company. The Company manages these risks by signing construction contracts with the contractors after a bidding and selection process in order to obtain the most competitive offered prices and conditions for each project. Contractors shall be responsible for procurement of materials and costs pre-agreed in the contract between the contractor and the Company. In other cases, some materials may be ordered directly from the manufacturer to obtain the best price, best quality and best conditions.
Compliance and Law
The government has issued rules and regulations regarding new development projects to minimise their effect to surrounding communities, such as the City Planning Law and conducting an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA). In compliance with regulations, the Company may be affected by higher costs or longer development times. Nevertheless, 74
3.6 Risk Factors
To support the business growth and continuously develop new projects as planned, the company needs various funding sources from both financial institutions and the capital market. To successfully access these sources and maintain sufficient financing for business growth, the Company is affected by several factors such as the fluctuation in interest rate, the capital market situation, confidence of financial institutions, investors and stakeholders of the Company. With strong major shareholders and new business partners, the Company can ameliorate these risks and obtain funds at the appropriate risk and funding cost profile. Since 2016, the Company has started to invest in real estate overseas. In 2017, the Company increased its overseas investment compared to the previous year. These transactions the operations of those assets are conducted in foreign currency. the Company has developed policies and best practice guidelines to manage exchange rate risk by adopting financial instruments such as Forward Contracts, Futures Contracts and Swap Options, depending on the appropriate situation.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT To the Shareholders of U City Public Company Limited Opinion
I have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of U City Public Company Limited and its subsidiaries (the Group), which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2017, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, and have also audited the separate financial statements of U City Public Company Limited for the same period. In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of U City Public Company Limited and its subsidiaries and of U City Public Company Limited as at 31 December 2017, their financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Thai Financial Reporting Standards.
Basis for Opinion
I conducted my audit in accordance with Thai Standards on Auditing. My responsibilities under those standards are furtherdescribedintheAuditor’sResponsibilitiesforthe AuditoftheFinancialStatementssectionofmyreport. I am independent of the Group in accordance with the Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants as issued by the Federation of Accounting Professions as relevant to my audit of the financial statements, and I have fulfilled my other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. I believe that the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my opinion.
Emphasis of matter
I draw attention to the following matters: a) As discussed in Note 13.2.2 to the financial statements regarding the acquisition of hotel
148
5.3 Independent Auditor’s Report
business in Europe for a total initial consideration that is subject to further adjustments in accordance with the terms and conditions of the agreement, the fair value measurement of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, and the measurement of goodwill have not yet been completed. b) As discussed in Note 35.2 c) to the financial statements regarding litigation, a subsidiary filed a lawsuit against the government agency with the Central Administrative Court in order to requested the government agency to deliver the construction site on royal land under the Rong Pasee Roi Chak Sam Land Development Project, and to approve extensions of the “project management period” and “rental period” as specified in the agreement. On 13 July 2017, the Central Administrative Court issued a judgment to extend the project utilisation period of the land in dispute for another 30 years, from the handover date or the date the Court issued the final judgment, as the case may be. The subsidiary has appealed to the Supreme Administrative Court and currently, the case is in the process of being considered by the Court My opinion is not qualified in respect of these matters.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in my professional judgment, were of most significance in my audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of my audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming my opinion thereon, and I do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. I have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of my report, including in relation to these matters. Accordingly, my audit included the performance of procedures designed to respond to my assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements.
The results of my audit procedures, including the procedures performed to address the matters below, provide the basis for my audit opinion on the accompanying financial statements as a whole. Key audit matters and how audit procedures respond for each matter are described below.
Business combination
fair value of the consideration transferred and did not include acquisition-related costs, taking into account the method and significant assumptions used in measurement of fair value. I also, tested the calculations and considered the reason for the goodwill and the initial difference arising from the acquisition recognised by the Group, and reviewed the disclosures related to the acquisitions in the notes to financial statements.
As discussed in Note 13.2.1 to the financial statements regarding the acquisition of investment in a subsidiary in the year 2016, the fair value measurement of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed as the acquisition date, and the measurement of goodwill were completed during the third quarter of the year 2017. Accordingly, the Group has restated the values of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed, and has recorded goodwill in the financial statements of the year 2016. Moreover, as discussed in Note 13.2.2 to the financial statements regarding the acquisition of investments in subsidiaries in 2017, as at 31 December 2017, the Group provisionally recorded the acquisition using a best estimate of the values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, determined by applying the acquisition method. The Group will complete summarising the results of account recording to the acquisition within 2018, and the transaction amounts recorded as at 31 December 2017 may need to be changed. I have focused on this business acquisition since it is material to the financial statements as a whole. In addition, given the nature of the real estate development and hotel businesses, the management need to exercise substantial judgment to determine the assumptions used as a basis for provisional recognition of the acquisition. Therefore, there is a risk with respect to the recognition and measurement of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including goodwill and initial differences arising from the acquisition.
Revenue recognition
I reviewed the terms and conditions of the agreements and inquired with management as to the nature and objectives of the acquisitions in order to assess whether the acquisitions met the definition of a business combination under Thai Financial Reporting Standard No.3 (Revised 2016) Business combinations. I checked the value of the acquisitions against supporting documents and related payments to assess whether they reflected the
Impairment of goodwill
5.3 Independent Auditor’s Report
Revenue is one of the Group’s significant accounts because the amounts of revenue recorded would directly affect the Group’s profit or loss for the year. Moreover, the Group has a large number of customers and revenue is recurring daily with a variety of different type including revenue from hotel operation, rental income, dividend, interest income and etc. There are therefore risks with respect to the amount and timing of revenue recognition. I have examined the revenue recognition of the Group by • Assessing and testing the Group’s internal controls with respect to the accuracy and timing of revenue recognition in the Group’s financial statements by making enquiry of responsible executives, gaining an understanding of the controls and selecting representative samples to test the operation of the designed controls. • On a sampling basis, examining supporting documents for actual revenues transactions occurring during the year and near the end of the accounting period. • Reviewing credit notes that the Group issued after the period-end. • Performing analytical procedures on disaggregated data to detect possible irregularities in revenues transactions throughout the period. • On a sampling basis, examining revenue transactions made through journal vouchers. As discussed in Note 13 to the financial statements, impairment assessment on goodwill is a significant accounting estimate requiring management to exercise a high degree of judgment in identifying the cash generating unit, estimating the cash inflows that are expected to be generated from that group of assets in the future, and setting an appropriate discount rate and long-term growth ANNUAL REPORT 2017
149
rate. There are thus risks with respect to the amount of goodwill. I assessed the identification of cash generating units and the financial models selected by the Group’s management by gaining an understanding of management’s decisionmaking process and assessing whether the decisions made were consistent with how assets are utilised. In addition, I tested the significant assumptions applied by management in preparing estimates of the cash flows expected to be realised from the assets, by comparing those assumptions with information from both internal and external sources and comparing past cash flow projections to actual operating results in order to evaluate the exercise of management judgment in estimating the cash flow projections. I also evaluated the discount rate applied by management through analysis of the average costs of the Group and of the industry, tested the calculation of the realisable values of the assets using the selected financial model and considered the impact of changes in key assumptions on those realisable values, especially changes in the discount rate and long-term revenue growth rates. In addition, I assessed the adequacy and the appropriateness of the disclosure of information relating to impairment assessment on goodwill in the notes to the financial statements.
Impairment of investment properties and property, plant and equipment
As discussed in Note 18 and Note 19 to the financial statements, the balances of the investment properties and the property, plant and equipment used in the business operations are material to the financial statements of the Group, representing 19% and 46% of total assets, respectively. I therefore focused on auditing and considering the impairment of such assets to ensure that the book values of the assets do not exceed their recoverable amounts. The determination of the provision for impairment of assets requires management to exercise significant judgment with respect to the projections of future operating performance and the assessment of future plans, including the determination of an appropriate discount rate and key assumptions. There is thus a risk with respect to the amount of impairment loss recorded on the assets. I assessed the management’s identification of cash generating units and selection of a financial model, 150
5.3 Independent Auditor’s Report
according to the type of asset, by gaining an understanding of management’s decision-making process and evaluating whether the decisions were consistent with how assets are utilised. In addition, I gained an understanding of and assessed the following items. • The assumptions applied in preparing 5-year plans and cash flow projections of the Group, based on the understanding I gained of the process by which the figures were arrived at, comparison of the assumptions with external and internal sources of information and comparison of past cash flow projections with actual operating results in order to assess the exercise of management judgment in estimating cash flow projections, and comparison of the long-term growth rate of the Group with economic and industry forecasts. • The discount rate, based on comparison of the average cost of capital and other data with those used by comparable organisations. • The assumptions and approaches used by the independent valuer or the Group’s management in calculating the fair value of assets. I considered the scope and probability of potential changes in the key assumptions (both individually and collectively as a group) and in particular the growth rates applied in preparing the cash flow projections, by comparing them to economic and industry forecast. In addition, I reviewed the disclosure of information relating to the estimation of impairment of the assets in the notes to the financial statements.
Impairment of investments in subsidiaries
As discussed in Note 13 to the financial statements, the balance of investments in subsidiaries representing 50% of total assets, which is significant to the statement of financial position. In considering the impairment loss, the management had to exercise significant judgment with respect to the subsidiaries’ projections of future operating performance and the determination of an appropriate discount rate and key assumptions. There is thus a risk with respect to the amount of provision for impairment of investments in subsidiaries. I assessed the subsidiaries’ projections of future operating performance and the financial model prepared by the management and evaluated whether they were consistent
with the nature of business operations of the subsidiaries. In addition, I gained an understanding of and assessed the following matters. • The assumptions applied in preparing 5-year plans and cash flow projections for the subsidiaries, based on the understanding I gained of the process by which the figures were arrived at; comparison of the assumptions with external and internal sources of information and comparison of past cash flow projections with actual operating results in order to assess the exercise of management judgment in estimating cash flow projections, and comparison of the long-term growth rate of subsidiaries with economic and industry forecasts. • The discount rate, based on comparison of the average cost of capital and other data with those used by comparable organisations. • The assumptions and approaches used by the independent valuer or management in calculating the fair value of investments. I considered the scope and probability of potential changes in the key assumptions (both individually and collectively as a group) and in particular the growth rates applied in preparing the cash flow projections, by comparing them to economic and industry forecasts. In addition, I reviewed the disclosure of information relating to the estimation of impairment of the investments in subsidiaries in the notes to the financial statements.
Other Information
Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprise the information included in annual report of the Group, but does not include the financial statements and my auditor’s report thereon. The annual report of the Group is expected to be made available to me after the date of this auditor’s report. My opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and I do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with my audit of the financial statements, my responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or my knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears 5.3 Independent Auditor’s Report
to be materially misstated. When I read the annual report of the Group, if I conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, I am required to communicate the matter to those charged with governance for correction of the misstatement.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with Thai Financial Reporting Standards, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
My objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes my opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Thai Standards on Auditing will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with Thai Standards on Auditing, I exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. I also: ANNUAL REPORT 2017
151
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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 Group’s internal control. • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management. • Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If I conclude that a material uncertainty exists, I am required to draw attention in my auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify my opinion. My conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of my auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern. • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
•
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. I am responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. I remain solely responsible for my audit opinion.
I communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that I identify during my audit. I also provide those charged with governance with a statement that I have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on my independence, and where applicable, related safeguards. From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, I determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. I describe these matters in my auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, I determine that a matter should not be communicated in my report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication. I am responsible for the audit resulting in this independent auditor’s report.

New financial reporting standards (a) Financial reporting standards that became effective in the current year During the year, the Group have adopted the revised financial reporting standards and interpretations (revised 2016) and new accounting treatment guidance which are effective for fiscal years beginning on or after 1 January 2017. 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 standards. The adoption of these financial reporting standards does not have any significant impact on the Group’s financial statements. (b) Financial reporting standards that will become effective in the future During the current year, the Federation of Accounting Professions issued a number of revised financial reporting standards and interpretations (revised 2017) which are effective for fiscal years beginning on or after 1 January 2018. These financial reporting standards were aimed at alignment with the corresponding International Financial Reporting Standards with most of the changes and clarifications directed towards disclosures in the notes to financial statements. The management of the Group believe that the revised financial reporting standards will not have any significant impact on the financial statements when they are initially applied.

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.
4.3
Trade and other receivables Trade and other receivables 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.
4.4
Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of weighted average cost and net realisable value.
4.5
Real estate projects under development Real estate projects under development are stated at the lower of cost and estimated net realisable value. The cost of real estate projects under development consist of the costs of land, land development, design and construction cost.

c)
Investment in joint venture and associates are accounted for in the consolidated financial statements using the equity method.
d)
Investments in subsidiaries, joint venture and associates are accounted for in the separate financial statements using the cost method.
The fair value of marketable securities is based on the latest bid price of the last working day of the year. The fair value of unit trusts is determined from their net asset value.

U City Public Company Limited and its subsidiaries Notes to consolidated financial statements For the year ended 31 December 2017
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 arising on disposal of an asset is included in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised. 4.10 Leasehold rights and amortisation Leasehold rights are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and allowance for loss on impairment of assets (if any). Amortisation of leasehold rights is calculated by reference to their cost on a straightline basis over the leasehold period. Amortisation is included in determining income. 4.11 Intangible assets Intangible assets acquired through business combination are initially recognised at their fair value on the date of business acquisition while intangible assets acquired in other cases are recognised at cost. Following the initial recognition, the intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses (if any). Intangible assets with finite lives are amortised on a systematic basis over the economic useful life 3 10 years and tested for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortisation period and the amortisation method of such intangible assets are reviewed at least at each financial year end. The amortisation expense is charged to profit or loss. 4.12 Goodwill Goodwill is initially recorded at cost, which equals to the excess of cost of business combination over the fair value of the net assets acquired. If the fair value of the net assets acquired exceeds the cost of business combination, the excess is immediately recognised as gain in profit or loss. Goodwill is carried at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually and when circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to each of the Group’s cash generating units (or group of cash-generating units) that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. The Group estimates the recoverable amount of each cash-generating unit (or group of cash-generating units) to which the goodwill relates. Where the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss. Impairment losses relating to goodwill cannot be reversed in future periods. 4.13 Related party transactions Related parties comprise individuals and enterprises that control, or are controlled by, the Group, whether directly or indirectly, or which are under common control with the Group.

They also include associated companies and individuals which directly or indirectly own a voting interest in the Group that gives them significant influence over the Group, key management personnel, directors, or officers with authority in the planning and direction of the Group’s operations. 4.14 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 long-term 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. Leases 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. 4.15 Foreign currencies The consolidated and separate financial statements are presented in Baht, which is also the Group’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. 4.16 Impairment of assets At the end of each reporting period, the Group performs impairment reviews in respect of the property, plant and equipment and other intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an asset may be impaired. The Group also carries out annual impairment reviews in respect of goodwill. 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 Group 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.

U City Public Company Limited and its subsidiaries Notes to consolidated financial statements For the year ended 31 December 2017
In the assessment of asset impairment if there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased, the Group estimates the asset’s recoverable amount. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. The increased carrying amount of the asset attributable to a reversal of an impairment loss shall not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in profit or loss unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal, which exceeds the carrying amount that would have been determined, is treated as a revaluation increase. 4.17 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 Group and its employees have jointly established a provident fund. The fund is monthly contributed by employees and by the Group. The fund’s assets are held in a separate trust fund and the Group’s contributions are recognised as expenses when incurred. Defined benefit plans The Group has obligations in respect of the severance payments it must make to employees upon retirement under labor law. The Group treats 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. Past service costs are recognised in profit or loss on the earlier of the date of the plan amendment or curtailment and the date that the Group recognises restructuring-related costs. 4.18 Assets held for sale and discontinued operations The Group classifies disposal assets as held for sale if their carrying amounts will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. The criteria for held for sale classification is regarded as met only when the sale is highly probable and the disposal assets are available for immediate sale in its present condition. Management must be committed to the sale, which should be expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year from the date of classification.

5.5 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
U City Public Company Limited and its subsidiaries Notes to consolidated financial statements For the year ended 31 December 2017
Disposal assets classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Gain or loss from discontinued operations are excluded from the results of continuing operations and are presented as a single amount in the profit or loss. 4.19 Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Group has 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. 4.20 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 Group 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. At each reporting date, the Group 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.

U City Public Company Limited and its subsidiaries Notes to consolidated financial statements For the year ended 31 December 2017 4.22 Fair value measurement Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between buyer and seller (market participants) at the measurement date. The Group apply a quoted market price in an active market to measure their assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value by relevant financial reporting standards. Except in case of no active market of an identical asset or liability or when a quoted market price is not available, the Group measure fair value using valuation technique that are appropriate in the circumstances and maximises the use of relevant observable inputs related to assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value. All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised within the fair value hierarchy into three levels based on categorise of input to be used in fair value measurement as follows: Level 1 -
Use of quoted market prices in an observable active market for such assets or liabilities
Level 2 -
Use of other observable inputs for such assets or liabilities, whether directly or indirectly
Level 3 - Use of unobservable inputs such as estimates of future cash flows At the end of each reporting period, the Group determine whether transfers have occurred between levels within the fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities held at the end of the reporting period that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. 5.
Significant accounting judgments and estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with financial reporting standards at times requires management to make subjective judgments and estimates regarding matters that are inherently uncertain. These judgments and estimates affect reported amounts and disclosures; and actual results could differ from these estimates. Significant judgments and estimates are as follows: Leases In determining whether a lease is to be classified as an operating lease or finance lease, the management is required to use judgment regarding whether significant risk and rewards of ownership of the leased asset has been transferred, taking into consideration terms and conditions of the arrangement. Impairment of equity investments The Group treats available-for-sale investments and other investments 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 judgment of the management.

Property plant and equipment/Depreciation In determining depreciation of plant and equipment, the management is required to make estimates of the useful lives and residual values of the plant and equipment and to review estimate useful lives and residual values when there are any changes. In addition, the management is required to review property, plant and 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 judgments regarding forecast of future revenues and expenses relating to the assets subject to the review. Goodwill The initial recognition and measurement of goodwill, 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. 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. Provisions The subsidiaries determined the provisions using various assumptions relevant to each provision. Estimates are reviewed whenever circumstances change. Litigation The Group has contingent liabilities as a result of litigation. The Group’s management has used judgment 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. 6.

The assessment of the management was that, as a result of the disposal of ordinary shares, the Company had lost control over PA38. Therefore, the Company has excluded the financial statements of PA38 from the consolidated financial statements since 15 November 2017. The operating results of PA38 were separately presented under “Loss from discontinued operation for the year” in the consolidated profit or loss for the year ended 31 December 2017, with those of the year ended 31 December 2016 presented for comparative purposes. Details of the book values of the assets and liabilities of PA38 as at 15 November 2017 are as follows: (Unit: Thousand Baht) Assets Cash and cash equivalents Real estate projects under development Other current assets

As a result of the disposal of this interest in the subsidiary, the Company retained a 50% shareholding and the investment was considered an investment in a jointly controlled entity, held by the Company and the coinvestor. The management accessed that the acquisition of the jointly controlled entity was an asset acquisition because, applying the definition in TFRS 3 (revised 2016) Business Combinations, the assets acquired do not constitute a business.

Based on assessment of the above transaction, the management of LEH believes that the investment in LHUT is a business combination because the assets acquired and liabilities assumed constitute a

business, and LEH has control over LHUT, in accordance with the definition specified in TFRS 3 (revised 2017) Business Combinations. During the third quarter of 2017, LEH completed fair value measurement of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, which was 8 September 2016. During the measurement period, LEH obtained further information on the fair value of the assets and liabilities. The Company has accordingly restated the consolidated statements of financial position as at 31 December 2016, comprehensive income for the year ended 31 December 2016, the consolidated statements of changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended, as presented herein for comparative purposes.

13.2.2 Vienna House Capital GmbH (“VHC”) (held by LEH) On 7 February 2017, the meeting of the Board of Directors of the Company passed the key resolutions as follows: a)
To approve LEH’s acquisition of all ordinary shares of VHC, a company incorporated in Austria, from an unrelated party for an aggregate amount of EUR 35,000, to engage in investment in securities. Subsequently, LEH completed the acquisition of 35,000 shares of VHC with a par value of Euro 1 each on 10 February 2017, received all shares and paid EUR 35,000 to the seller. As a result, LEH has control over VHC from 10 February 2017 onwards. LEH’s management assessed that the assets and liabilities of VHC as at 1 January 2017 and 10 February 2017 are not materially different. LEH has therefore assumed that the date of the share acquisition was 1 January 2017 and included VHC’s operating results in the consolidated financial statements as from 1 January 2017. Based on the analysis, the management of LEH considers that the business acquisition of VHC was an asset acquisition because the assets acquired do not constitute a business applying the definition in TFRS 3 Business Combinations (revised 2016). The net assets acquired from the asset acquisition are as follows: (Unit: EUR)

In addition, VHC has pledged some of its deposits at financial institutions with an escrow agent as a guarantee for financial price adjustments under the agreement. These are to be held in escrow until calculation of the purchase price in accordance with the agreement is finalised. VHC has included the financial statements of those entities in the consolidated financial statements since 31 May 2017. Details of those entities are as follows:

As at 31 December 2017, VHC was still in the process of determining the fair value of the acquired entities, and therefore assigned an independent appraiser to assess the fair value. In this regard, the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed were the estimated values as at the date of acquisition, which might be adjusted in accordance with TFRS 3 (revised 2016) Business Combinations. Accordingly, VHC’s management is required to make a preliminary assessment of the fair values of businesses acquired as at the acquisition date. During the measurement period, which must not exceed one year from the acquisition date, VHC is to retrospectively adjust the provisional amounts recognised as at the acquisition date to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. In addition, the fair value of the business acquired during the period is dependent on the result of the purchase price allocation exercise and this process is currently not completed. Such discrepancy is therefore recorded as “Estimated amount by which the purchase cost exceeds interest in net asset value” under non-current assets in the consolidated statement of financial position. 13.2.3 VHE Cracow Sp. z.o.o. (formerly known as Helston Sp. z.o.o.) (“VHEC”) (Held by VHC) On 5 May 2017, VHC established VHEC, in Poland to engage in real estate development business, with a registered and 100 percent called-up share capital of PLN 5,000 (100 ordinary shares with a par value of PLN 50). VHC holds a 100 percent interest in VHEC. 13.2.4 BHE Warsaw Sp. z.o.o (formerly known as Zammia Investments Sp. z.o.o.) (“VHEW”) (Held by Vienna International Hotel Management AG (“VIAG”)) On 22 November 2017, VIAG established VHEW, in Poland to engage in investment in assets business, with a registered and 100 percent called-up share capital of PLN 5,000 (100 ordinary shares with a par value of PLN 50). VIAG holds a 100 percent interest in VHEW. 13.2.5 Underwood Street Limited (“USL”) (held by LEH) On 3 May 2017, a meeting of the Board of Directors of the Company passed the key resolutions as follows: a)
To approve LEH’s establishment of USL in Jersey to engage in real estate development business, with a registered share capital of GBP 2 million (2 million ordinary shares with a par value of GBP 1 each). LEH holds a 100 percent interest in USL.
b)
To approve USL’s acquisition of leasehold right to an office building in England from an unrelated party for GBP 7.3 million.
USL entered into an agreement to purchase the leasehold right to such building on 3 May 2017, with a condition to leaseback the property to the seller as specified in the agreement. USL has already made full payment.

Earnings per share Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing profit (loss) 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. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing profit (loss) 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 of the potential ordinary shares were issued.

c) A subsidiary (The Joint Venture of U City Public Company Limited, Aman Resorts Services Limited and Silverlink Holdings Limited) has outstanding commitments as follows: On 10 May 2005, the subsidiary entered into an agreement related to the royal land (state land) at Rong Pasee Roi Chak Sam Land Development Project with the Treasury Department, Ministry of Finance, under which the subsidiary will invest, develop and construct a hotel and other structures on the royal land, and subsequently transfer ownership of the hotel and structures to the Treasury Department. In return, the subsidiary has the right to manage the constructed hotel for 30 years commencing from the date of the execution of the agreement, with the subsidiary to pay the Treasury Department an arrangement fee of Baht 125 million on the date of the execution of the agreement and annual rental fees as follows: Years Years 1 - 11 Years 12 - 16 Years 17 - 20 Years 21 - 30
Rental rate per annum (Million Baht) 3 30 40 100
The subsidiary has consistently complied with the agreement in relation to the royal land under the Rong Pasee Roi Chak Sam Land Development Project with the Treasury Department, Ministry of Finance. However, the Treasury Department has not delivered the project site to the subsidiary in accordance with the agreement because the relocation of the Bangruk Fire Department from the project site is not complete (by no fault of the subsidiary). As a result of this problem, the subsidiary has been unable to develop and construct the project as scheduled and various contractual disputes/issues have arisen. In order to obtain a remedy for damages suffered and to provide justice to the subsidiary, the subsidiary notified the Treasury Department of various claims, including a request to consider not counting the “project management period” and “rental period” with effect from 10 May 2005. On 18 December 2015, the subsidiary filed a lawsuit against the Treasury Department, as first defendant, and the Supervising Committee for the royal land under Rong Pasee Roi Chak Sam Land Development Project, as the second defendant, with the Central Administrative Court; asking the Central Administrative Court to issue a judgment or order which (i) compels both defendants to comply with the Cabinet Resolution dated 26 August 2003, which set out a project construction period of 36 months and a project utilisation period of 30 years after construction was completed and (ii) compels the Treasury Department to exercise its authority under Section 10 of the Act on the Private Participation in the Affairs of the State of 1992, Article 34, paragraph 1 (7) and paragraph 4 of the Ministerial Regulation relating to rules and methods for administration, maintenance, utilisation and benefit arrangement on State Land B.E. 2545, and the Cabinet Resolution dated 8 July 2013, by ordering the Bangkok Metropolitan to return the royal land and expel the Bangruk Fire Station and fire officers from the site of the royal land at Rong Pasee Roi Chak Sam Land Development Project and to demarcate an area for the subsidiary to proceed with project 5.5 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

construction as scheduled, within 30 days following the date the Court issued final judgment or within the period specified by the Court. On 13 July 2017, the Central Administrative Court issued a judgment compelling both defendants to extend the project utilisation period of the land in dispute for another 30 years, from the handover date or the date the Court issued the final judgment, as the case may be. Subsequently, on 15 August 2017, the subsidiary has submitted an appeal to the Supreme Administrative Court. The case is in the process of being considered by the Court. As at 31 December 2017, assets and liabilities related to such lawsuit recorded in the subsidiary’s financial statements consist of leasehold rights amounting to Baht 72 million, construction in progress amounting to Baht 89 million and rental payable amounting to Baht 69 million. The management of the subsidiary believes that such assets and liabilities are fairly presented and have determined that the fair value of the assets is higher than the book value. 35.3 Guarantees a)

The Company has an interest in this land. Currently, the litigation is in the process of being considered by the court. However, the Company received permission to open a building for use in September 2016. Subsequently, on 23 May 2017, the Company filed a petition to withdraw the interpleader action, and the Court granted the request. As a result, the Company is no longer a party to this litigation.
