Prof. Wongkulpat Snidvongs na Ayudyha, M.D. Chairman of the Board

Dr. Dumrong Kasemset Chairman of the Executive Committee

2007 was another year that CS LoxInfo Public Company Limited could build a good level of returns to shareholders. On top of the high dividend payout, the Company was able to allocate 222 million Baht of net profit to repurchase the shares with an objective to manage shareholder return in the long run. For 2007’s operating results, the Company reported total revenues of 2,600 million Baht, 55% was from the internet business and 34% was from Teleinfo Media Public Company Limited who operates the YellowPages business. As for the new investment in the past year, the Company had invested in a 60% stake in publishing businesses that primarily focused on selling classified ads for market popular products e.g. cars, jobs, homes, education. In view that such business is in line with the YellowPages business, which is categorized as another type of classified ad, thus when combining all products and services information, it puts the Company in a better position to carry on providing these service. In 2008, the Company plans to develop its products and services, especially online search and exchange of information via internet, call center or mobile phone in order to respond to varying needs of customers. In terms of the overall policy, the Company will place a strong emphasis on developing products and services that can satisfy demands from target customers, both corporate and individual. Moreover, the Company has realized the importance of being part of an enduring Thai society. From past to present, not only has the Company supported various kinds of social activities for the benefit of youths and several communities throughout Thailand, but also will continue to carry on activities that are successful and receive cooperation from social parties. On December 11, 2007, the Board was awarded the “Board of the Year Award for Exemplary Practice” organized by the Thai Institute of Directors Association, in cooperation with the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET), and Board of Trade of Thailand.

Message from Managing Director CS LoxInfo Public Company Limited and Teleinfo Media Public Company Limited In 2007, the country’s overall internet business was still growing. For the internet business of CS LoxInfo Public Company Limited, it was still able to generate a good profit to shareholders compared to competitors in the market despite intense competition and Thai economic status which remained weak. For the YellowPages business, a media inwhich buyers look for sellers, it had further expanded into two dimensions. The first dimension expanded the existing target group that covers the purchasing and procurement of both government and private entities into personal consumptions that are necessary in daily life whereas the second dimension expanded sub-community areas in order to better facilitate specific consumptions in each city and each area. Such expansion spelled out two volumes of City YellowPages (City Pages) i.e. Nonthaburi and Pathumthani which in turn enlarged the customer base by approximately 10%. The Company is already set to expand into other provinces e.g. Phuket, Chiang Mai, Nakhon Ratchasima and Bangkok in the form of Urban Living YellowPages in the coming year. Overall, the Company will continue its policy of providing services aimed at developing products to increase variety and flexibility in order to serve various customer needs. In the mean time, the Company will still largely give importance to products and services in the private sector. Lastly, I and fellow teamwork in the Company are very determined to work hard to drive our business forward in a secure manner. At the same time, we would like to create benefit across all stakeholders, including shareholders, employees, government and Thai society as well as the development of information in Thailand. We therefore would like to thank all shareholders for your continued trust and support in the Company’s business.

Directors Nomination and Appointment Process The Company has appointed the Nomination Committee (NC) to consider setting standards and policies in nominating a qualified director under the Company’s Articles of Association and relevant laws, as well as to nominate such a qualified person to be a director of the Company where the office is vacant. The NC considers the educational background and professional experiences of the candidates. It provides sufficient useful information, for the consideration or decision making of the Board and the shareholders. Moreover, it was determined that in every Annual General Shareholders Meeting, one third of the directors shall resign from the position. In case that the number of the directors cannot be divided into three, the closest to one third of the directors shall resign from their positions. In the first and second year after the Company was listed on the Stock Exchange of Thailand, the directors who were required to resign, applied the method of drawing lots to determine who should resign. On subsequent years, the longest serving directors would resign and might be re-elected to resume their positions. In case the office of Director is vacant, due to reasons other than by the rotational scheme, the Board shall elect a person who is qualified and has no prohibited characteristics in accordance with Clause 68 of the Public Company Act, B.E. 2535. The successful candidate would replace the Director at the next meeting. Unless the remaining tenure of the Director vacating office is less than two months, a director who has elected as a replacement shall retain this position only up to the remaining tenure of such preceding director. As stipulated in the Company’s Articles of Association, the shareholders meeting shall elect directors under the following rules and procedures. 1. All shareholders have votes equivalent to the number of shares being held. 2. Each shareholder may use all votes set forth in (1) to elect one or more directors. In case of electing a number of directors, those votes may not be divided in any proportion for any particular director. 3. Those who receive the highest respective votes shall be elected as directors in a number equal to those to be elected at such a meeting. In cases of tied votes cast, which would result in the number of directors greater than that permitted for the time being, the presiding chairman shall have a casting vote. 22 CS LOXINFO

The Company has the policy of politics neutrality. The directors, executives and staff shall resign if they would like to accept a political related position, or stands for both regional and national election. • In the case of connected or related parties transactions within the Group, the rules and procedures of granting approval shall be conformed by upholding the best interests of the Company as if dealing with outside parties (on arms’ length basis). In case of a large scale transaction that the approval authorized person is the director or Managing Director, the guideline regarding approval making is available in clause no. 4 and 5 of chapter 1. For the smaller scale of transactions, the Office of Internal Audit will regularly review for the appropriateness of the price and conditions of the transactions. Overall connected and related parties transactions will also be reported by company and type of the transactions to the AC on quarterly basis, for their consideration that the transactions are of normal business transactions similar to those transacted with external parties.

We also pay strong attention to the process of entering into the connected or related parties transactions and the information disclosure according to the relevant rules and regulations of the SET and Thai accounting standard because it is the matter should be easily sensitive to the shareholders especially the minority ones.

3. Use of inside information, trading of the Group’s securities, and distribution of information or

interview to the press or the public

The corporate Code of Conduct specified that the directors, management, and staff, at all levels, shall not use significant inside information of the Group, and has not yet been disclosed to the public, for their own or others’ interests. Although investment and trading in the Group’s securities is the individual’s right and freedom, the Code of Conduct requires the directors, management, and staff to avoid or suspend trading of the Group’s securities for a period of one month in prior to the disclosure of all financial statements to the public, in order to prevent the conflict of interest. In addition, for compliance with the clause No. 59 of the Securities and Exchange Act, B.E. 2535, the Company requires the directors and management, including their spouse and minor child to report the securities holding and changes by the form and on the time specified by the regulation. Reporting to the Board for acknowledgement was also made on quarterly basis. The distribution of any information relating to the Company shall be made only by the person having direct responsibility, or being specifically assigned, on the basis of fact, correctness, and prudence.

Liquidity In 2007, the Companyûs current ratio was 1.66 times, decreasing from 2006 which it was at 1.88 times.

The Companyûs quick ratio was 1.45 times, decreasing from 2006 which it was at 1.63 times. The decreases came largely from a decrease of the reserved printing paper for the Thailand YellowPages Book of Teleinfo Media (Public) Company Limited and treasury stock program. The Companyûs cash flows from operations amounted to Baht 584 million, a decrease of 17% from last year. This resulted from a decrease of deferred income tax and amortization accounts. The Companyûs cash flow from investment was Baht 221 million, increasing by 89% from 2006. This was due to an investment in Watta Classified Company Limited since Q2/2007. The Company also paid dividend and purchased treasury stock totaling Baht 213 million and Baht 222 million in 2007, respectively. Clarification 1. The impact of the adjustment on Provision from acquisition of investment As at 31 December 2007 the Company has an adjustment on provision from acquisition of investment stated at the accompanying financial statements in a total amount of Baht 124.8 million. This provision derived from the purchase of shares from Teleinfo Media Public Company Limited (“TMC”) from TOT. Under the condition of purchasing, the Company has a commitment to pay an additional amount for the shares of Baht 127.5 million to TOT in 2008. (Please see more detail in “Clarification No.4: Investment in TMC”) TMC’s operating results for 1 January 2006 to 31 December 2007 showed revenue of Baht 1,778 million. TMC was unable to generate aggregate total revenue of Baht 2,000 million or more within 31 December 2007. As a result, the Company may not be required to pay the additional share price and has therefore reversed the provision from acquisition of investment in the current quarter. The impacts of this transaction on the accompanying consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2007 are as follows:- • Balance sheet as of 31 December 2007: The decrease in goodwill Baht 89.6 million and the decrease in provision from acquisition of investment - net Baht 124.8 million. • Statement of income for the year ended 31 December 2007: The increase in net profit Baht 35.2 million. This resulted from the decrease in interest expense and administrative and selling expenses Baht 4.1 million and Baht 7.7 million, respectively, with other income increased by Baht 23.4 million.

2. The effect of change in investment accounting policy Since Q1/2007, the Company has changed the accounting method in recording investments in subsidiaries and associates in separate financial statements from the equity method to cost method as per Thai Accounting Standard No.44. As a consequence, the Company has restated the prior year’s comparative financial statements retrospectively, as if the cost method had always been in use. Therefore, the 2006 comparative figures are prepared on the assumption that the new accounting method has been applied. The Company has recorded the investment in subsidiaries and associates at historical costs in the separate financial statements, which lead to net profit in separate financial statements to be different from those in the consolidated financial statements. The details are as follows:- Consolidated ended 31 December Company ended 31 December 2007 2006 2007 2006 Net prfit (MB) 261 213 490 190 Basic earnings pershare (Baht) 0.42 0.34 0.80 0.30 Diluted earnings pershare (Baht) 0.42 0.34 0.79 0.30

Moreover, the effect of this change in investment accounting policy will be as follows:- 1. The net profit for the year ending 31 December 2007, presented in separated income statements increased Baht 229 million. This resulted from dividend received from TMC in 2007. 2. Investment in subsidiaries and retain earnings on the balance sheet as at 31 December 2006, presented in separate financial statement, decreased Baht 640 million. The accumulated change from the change in this accounting policy has been presented in çPrior period adjustmenté at the statement of separate changes in shareholdersû equity.

Nonetheless, this is merely a change in accounting policy for investments in subsidiaries and associates in separate financial statements, not a change in any fundamental factors affecting the Companyûs business.

3. Revenue and Cost Recognition Policy of TMC 1. Revenue Recognition of TMC TMC had its main revenue from the sale of advertising space in the Thailand Yellow Pages.

On 27 April 2007, the Company acquired 120,000 ordinary shares of Watta Classified Company Limited (“Watta”) at Baht 733.34 per share, equivalent to 60% of the share capital of Watta. As a result, Watta and its subsidiaries changed status to be the Company’s subsidiaries from the date on which control was transferred to the Company (Note 25). As at 31 December 2007, the Group employs 1,400 people (2006: 997 people). These consolidated and company financial statements were approved for issue by the Board of Directors on 20 February 2008. New Accounting Standards and Amendments to Accounting Standards with the effective date in 2008 The following new accounting standards and amendments to accounting standards are revised and are mandatory for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2008. Amendments to Accounting Standards TAS No. 25 “Cash Flow Statements” TAS No. 29 “Leases” TAS No. 31 “Inventory” TAS No. 33 “Borrowing Costs” TAS No. 35 “Presentation of Financial Statements” TAS No. 39 “Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors” TAS No. 41 “Interim Financial Reporting” TAS No. 43 “Business Combinations” TAS No. 49 “Construction Contracts” New Accounting Standards TAS No. 51 “Intangible Assets” The Group will apply these standards and amendments from 1 January 2008. However, the management determines that the application of these standards will not have significant impact on the consolidated and company financial statements as of 31 December 2007 being presented, except the revised TAS 35 “Presentation of Financial Statements” which requires the additional disclosures on critical judgement and estimates made by the management and the revised TAS 43 “Business Combinations” which requires intangible assets with indefinite useful life will no longer be amortised but be tested for impairment annually. 2 Accounting policies

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these consolidated and company financial statements are set out below:- 2.1 Basis of preparation The consolidated and company financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Thai generally accepted accounting principles under the Accounting Act B.E. 2543, being those Thai Accounting Standards issued under the Accounting Profession Act B.E. 2547, and the financial reporting requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities and Exchange Act B.E. 2535. The accounting principles applied may differ from generally accepted accounting principles adopted in 103 CS LOXINFO


other countries and jurisdictions. The accompanying consolidated and company financial statements are therefore not intended to present the financial position and results of operations and cash flows in accordance with jurisdictions other than Thailand. Consequently, these consolidated and company financial statements are only addressed to those who are informed about Thai generally accepted accounting principles and practices. The consolidated and company financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Thai generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the amounts of revenues and expenses in the reported years. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results may differ from those estimates. Where necessary, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform with changes in presentation in the current year. An English version of the consolidated and company financial statements has been prepared from the statutory financial statements that are in the Thai language. In the event of a conflict or a difference in interpretation between the two languages, the Thai language statutory financial statements shall prevail. 2.2 Group accounting - investment in subsidiaries, associates and joint venture • Subsidiary undertakings Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one half of the voting rights. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group and are no longer consolidated from the date that control ceases. The purchase method of accounting is used to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries by the Group. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange, plus costs directly attributable to the acquisition. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the Group’s share of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognised as negative goodwill. See Note 2.11 for the accounting policy on goodwill. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between group companies are eliminated; unrealised losses are also eliminated unless costs cannot be recovered. Where necessary, accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Company. In the Company’s separate financial statements investments in subsidiaries are reported using the cost method of accounting. A list of the Group’s principal subsidiaries is set out in Note 8 • Associated undertakings Associates are all entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control, generally accompanying a shareholding of between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. Investments in associates are initially recognised at cost. In the consolidated financial statements are accounted for using the equity method and using cost method in the company financial statements. The Company’s investment in associates includes goodwill identified on acquisition, net of any accumulated amortisation cost. The Company’s share of the postacquisition profits or losses of associates is recognised in the income statement. The cumulative postacquisition movements are adjusted against the cost of the investment. Unrealised gains or losses on transactions between the Group and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the 104 CS LOXINFO


associates; unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. The Group’s investment in associates includes goodwill (net of accumulated amortisation of goodwill) on acquisition. When the Group’s share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate. A list of the Group’s principal associates is set out in Note 8 2.3 Related parties Enterprises and individuals that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, control, or are controlled by, or are under common control with, the Company, including holding companies, subsidiaries and fellow subsidiaries, are related parties of the Company. Associates and individuals owning, directly or indirectly, an interest in the voting power of the Company that gives them significant influence over the enterprise, key management personnel, including directors and officers of the Company and close members of the family of these individuals and companies associated with these individuals also constitute related parties. In considering each possible related party relationship, attention is directed to the substance of the relationship, and not merely the legal form. 2.4 Foreign currency translation Items included in the financial statements of each entity in the Group are measured in Thai Baht. The consolidated and company financial statements are presented in Thai Baht. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Thai Baht at the rate of exchange prevailing on the transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Thai Baht at the rate of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date. Gains and losses resulting from the settlement of foreign currency transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the income statements. 2.5 Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents are carried in the balance sheet at cost. Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and deposits held at banks, and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less from the acquisition date. 2.6 Trade accounts receivable Trade accounts receivable are carried at the original invoice amount and subsequently measured at the remaining amount less allowance for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding amounts at the year end. The amount of the allowance is the difference between the carrying amount of the receivable and the amount expected to be collectible. Bad debts are written off during the year in which they are identified and recognised in the income statement as selling and administrative expenses. 2.7 Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realisable value. Cost is determined using the FIFO method. The cost of purchase comprises both the purchase price and the costs directly attributable to the acquisition of the inventory, such as taxes and transportation charges, less all attributable discounts and rebates. The cost of finished goods and work in progress comprises raw materials, direct labour, other direct costs and related production overheads, but excludes borrowing costs. Net realisable value is the estimate of the selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the costs of completion and selling expenses. Allowance is made, where necessary, for obsolete, slow-moving and defective inventories. 105 CS LOXINFO


2.8 Investments Investments with fixed maturity that management has the intention and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity and are included as non-current assets, except for those with maturity within 12 months from the balance sheet date, which are classified as short-term investment in under current assets. A test for impairment, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount is charged or credited to the income statements. On disposal of an investment, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount is charged or credited to the income statements. 2.9 Property and equipment All property and equipment is initially recorded at cost and subsequently shown at historical cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method to write off the cost of each asset over its estimated useful life as follows:- Leasehold improvements 5 years Computer equipment 3 - 10 years Furniture and fixtures 5 years Office equipment 5 years Motor vehicles 5 years Printing equipment 5 years Where the carrying amount of an asset is greater than its estimated recoverable amount, it is written down immediately to its recoverable amount. The estimated recoverable amount is the higher of the anticipated, discounted cash flows from the continuing use of the asset and the amount obtainable from the sale of the asset, less any cost of disposal. Gains and losses on disposal of property and equipment are determined by reference to their carrying amount and are taken into account in determining operating profit. Repairs and maintenance expenses are charged to the income statements during the financial year in which they are incurred. The cost of major renovations is included in the carrying amount of the asset when it is probable that future economic benefits in excess of the originally assessed standard of performance of the existing asset will flow to the Group. Major renovations are depreciated over the remaining useful life of the related assets. 2.10 Equipment under concession agreements Equipment under concession agreements represents, Internet networks, servers, fiber optic networks and other operating equipment, which has been transferred to CAT Telecom Public Company Limited under concession agreements. Concession assets are carried at the historical cost less accumulated amortisation. They are amortised using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of these assets, ranging from five to ten years, or the remaining concession period. Concession assets are not revalued. The carrying amount of concession assets is reviewed annually and adjusted for impairment where it is considered necessary. 2.11 Intangible assets • Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the Group’s share of identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquired subsidiary, associate or joint venture undertaking at the date of acquisition. Goodwill on acquisitions of subsidiaries and joint ventures is reported in the consolidated balance sheet as goodwill. Goodwill on acquisitions of associates is included in investments - equity method in the 106 CS LOXINFO


consolidated financial statements. Goodwill is amortised using the straight-line method over its estimated useful life. Management determines the estimated useful life of goodwill based on its evaluation of the respective companies at the time of the acquisition, considering factors such as existing market share, potential growth and other factors inherent in the acquired companies. Goodwill arising on acquisitions of the Group is amortised over a period of 4 - 12 years. Negative goodwill represents the excess of the fair value of the Group’s share of the net assets acquired over the cost of acquisition. Negative goodwill is presented under the same balance sheet classifications as goodwill. Any remaining negative goodwill, not exceeding the fair values of the non-monetary assets acquired, is recognised in the statement of income over the remaining weighted average useful life of those assets; negative goodwill in excess of the fair values of those assets is recognised in the statement of income immediately. Negative goodwill arising on acquisitions of the Group is recognised over a period of two years. • Intangible assets - other Expenditure on purchased computer software, Internet equipment provided to customers in connection with services obtained from the Company and the right to publish books is capitalised and amortised using the straight-line method over its useful life which is estimated by management, at five to ten years for purchased computer software and, the period of each service agreement for Internet equipment. The right to publish books is amortised using the straight-line method over its estimated useful life, which management has determined to be three years. Intangible assets are not revalued. The carrying amount of each intangible asset is reviewed annually and adjusted for impairment where it is considered necessary. 2.12 Deferred tax The Group and the Company recognised deferred income tax in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising from differences between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised. Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences arising from investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. The tax rate at the balance sheet date was used to calculate the deferred income tax. 2.13 Employee benefits The Group operates a provident fund, which is a defined contribution plan, the assets of which are held in a separate trust fund. The provident fund is funded by payments from employees and by the relevant Group companies. Contributions to the provident fund are charged to the statement of income in the year to which they relate. However, the Group does not provide for employment benefits payable to employees under the Thai Labour Law. Warrants granted to directors and employees of the Group are recognised when they are exercised. 2.14 Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made. Where the Group expects an 107 CS LOXINFO


expenditure item to be reimbursed, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation. The increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognised as interest expenses. 2.15 Revenue recognition Sales are recognised upon delivery of products and customer acceptance. Revenues from rendering services and sales are net of value added tax and discounts. Revenue from sales of newspapers and publishing is net of value added tax, discounts and the estimation of goods returned. Revenues from rendering internet services and services related to the satellite business are recognised when such services are rendered to customers. All costs of services incurred during the relevant periods are treated as period costs. Revenue from the sale of advertising space in telephone directories is recognised on a monthly basis over the useful life of the telephone directory. Interest income is recognised as it accrues, unless collectability is in doubt. Dividend income is recognised when the Group’s right to receive payment is established. Advances from customers will be released to income when the services are provided. 2.16 Dividends payments Dividends and interim dividends are recorded in the consolidated and company financial statements in the period in which they are approved by the shareholders and the Board of Directors, respectively. 2.17 Financial instruments Financial instruments carried on the balance sheet include cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, amounts due from related parties, other investment, deposits, trade accounts payable, other accounts payable, amount due to related parties, obligations under finance lease and borrowings. The particular recognition methods adopted are disclosed in the individual policy statements associated with each item. 2.18 Foreign currency forward contracts Foreign currency forward contracts protect the Group from movements in exchange rates. Forward contract transactions are recorded as forward contracts receivable or forward contracts payable on inception, and translated at the year-end rate. Unrealised gains and losses on translation are recognised in the income statements. Premiums or discounts are amortised in the income statements on a straight-line basis over the contract years. 2.19 Segment reporting The segment reporting has been prepared based on the Group’s method of internal reporting, which disaggregates its business by service or product. 2.20 Leases - where the Group is the lessee Leases of assets where the Group assumes substantially all the benefits and risks of ownership are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalised at the inception of the lease at the lower of the fair value of the leased assets or the present value of the minimum lease payments. Each lease payment is 108 CS LOXINFO


allocated to the principal and to the finance charges so as to achieve a constant rate on the finance balance outstanding. The corresponding rental obligations, net of finance charges, are included in other payables. The interest element of the finance charge is charged to the income statements over the lease period. The property and equipment acquired under finance leasing contracts are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the assets or the lease term. However, if there is reasonable certainty that the lessee will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term, depreciation is calculated over the estimated useful life of the assets. Leases not transferring a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are charged to the statement of income on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease. When an operating lease is terminated before the lease period has expired, any payment required to be made to the lessor by way of penalty is recognised as an expense in the period in which termination takes place. 2.21 Leases - where the Group is the lessor Assets leased out under operating leases are included in property and equipment in the balance sheet. They are depreciated over their expected useful lives on a basis consistent with similar fixed assets. Rental income is recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term. 2.22 Impairment of assets Property and equipment and other non-financial assets, including goodwill and intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment losses whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the higher of an asset’s net selling price and value in use. For the purpose of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest level for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash-generating units). Non-financial assets other than goodwill that have suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date. 2.23 Treasury share Where the Company or its subsidiaries purchase the Company’s equity share capital from the shareholders, the consideration paid is recognised as treasury share and is presented as a reduction from total shareholders’ equity until shares are resold or cancelled. Where such shares are subsequently resold or reissued, any consideration received-net of related taxes on sales is presented under the shareholders’ equity.

3 Change in accounting policy

Change in accounting policy for investments in subsidiaries and associates, presented in the company financial statements. The announcement of Federation of Accounting Professions on 2 May 2007 relating to amendments to TAS 44 “Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements”, TAS 45 “Investments in Associates” and TAS 46 “Interests in Joint Ventures” requires the change from the equity method to cost method of accounting for investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, presented in the company financial

109 CS LOXINFO


statements. Under the cost method, income from investment will be recorded when dividends are declared. The notification is mandatory from 1 January 2007. The change in the accounting policy has an impact to the company financial statements only and does not have an impact to the consolidated financial statements. The Group has adopted the cost method commencing from 1 January 2007 by applying retrospective adjustments. The effects of the changes on the Company financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2006 are as follows:- Company Baht Balance sheet as at 31 December 2006 Decrease in investments in subsidiaries and an associate - equity method 1,597,615,051 Increase in investments in subsidiaries and an associate - cost method 957,634,703 Shareholders’ equity Decrease in beginning balance of retained earnings 617,295,029 Decrease in closing balance of retained earnings 639,980,348 Statement of income for the year ended 31 December 2006 Increase in dividend receipt from a subsidiary 80,693,310 Decrease in share of net results from investments - equity method 184,914,763 Decrease in administrative and selling expenses (Goodwill) 81,536,134 Decrease in net profit 22,685,319 Decrease in basic earnings per share 0.04 Decrease in diluted earnings per share 0.04

On 29 June 2005, the Company acquired an additional 25.51 million ordinary and preferred shares in Teleinfo Media Public Company Limited (“TMC”) at Baht 25 per share (representing a 36.75% shareholding) from TOT Public Company Limited (“TOT”). The acquisition was subject to the following significant conditions:- • On 29 June 2005, the Company paid an amount of Baht 20 per share to purchase these shares. • The Company will pay TOT an additional Baht 5 per share if TMC achieves an aggregate total revenue from the fiscal year 2006 to 2007 of Baht 2,000 million or more. The payment is due within 30 days after TMC’s financial statements for the year ending 31 December 2007 are approved by a certified public accountant authorised by the Securities and Exchange Commission. TMC’s aggregate total revenue for the period from 1 January 2006 to 31 December 2007 was Baht 1,813 million which is below Baht 2,000 million. As a result, the Company is not required to pay the additional share price and has therefore reversed the provision from acquisition of investment that was recognised in the past. The details of provision can be shown as follows:- Consolidated Company For the years ended 31 December 2007 2006 2007 2006 Baht Baht Baht Baht Opening balance 120,765,376 115,340,077 120,765,376 115,340,077 Interest charge during the year 2,712,650 5,425,299 2,712,650 5,425,299 Reversal: Decrease in goodwill (97,269,142) - - - Reversal of interest charge (2,712,650) - (2,712,650) - Decrease in investments in subsidiaries - - (112,627,427) - Increase in other income (23,496,234) - (8,137,949) - Closing balance - 120,765,376 - 120,765,376

The Company’s registered share capital as at 31 December 2007 comprised 661 million ordinary shares (31 December 2006: 649 million shares) of Baht 1 each (31 December 2006: Baht 1 each). 627 million ordinary shares were fully paid-up (31 December 2006: 625 million ordinary shares). At the Board of Directors’ meeting of the Company on 22 February 2007, the Board of Directors passed a resolution to recommend to shareholders the payment of dividends for the second half of 2006. The proposed dividend was greater than 50% of the net profit after tax. As a result, the exercise ratio and exercise price of the warrants under the ESOP schemes (Grant I to Grant IV) would be affected. Hence the Company changed the exercise ratio and exercise price of the warrants as detailed below, effective from 28 March 2007 onwards. The shareholders subsequently approved such dividend payment on 23 April 2007 (Note 36).

At the annual ordinary shareholders meeting of the Company held on 23 April 2007, the shareholders passed a resolution to approve the offset of legal reserve of Baht 45.6 million and premium on share capital of Baht 574.5 million, totalling Baht 620.1 million with deficit. The offset is allowed under the Public Limited Companies Act section 119; which states “Where approval of the shareholder meeting has been obtained, the company may transfer the reserve fund referred to premium on share, the reserve fund referred to legal reserve or other reserves to compensate for the deficit of the company”. At the annual ordinary shareholders meeting of the Company held on 23 April 2007, the shareholders passed a resolution to approve the allocation of 8,354,400 ordinary shares, equivalent to 1.34% of the Company’s total issued and paid-up share capital as at the date the warrants allocation was approved, under an ESOP scheme (Grant V), by granting warrants to directors and employees of the Company and its subsidiary. The exercise ratio is one warrant per ordinary share. The warrants are in registered form and are non-transferable. The term of the warrants does not exceed five years from the date on which they were granted, and the warrants have no offering price. The exercise price is the weighted-average closing price of the Company’s shares traded on the Stock Exchange of Thailand during the period of 30 days prior to the annual ordinary shareholders meeting held on 23 April 2007. One-third of the allocated warrants may be exercised to purchase ordinary shares, one year from the grant date for the first exercise, and two years and three years from the grant date for the second and third exercises, respectively. On 24 May 2007, the Securities and Exchange Commission approved the Company’s ESOP scheme (Grant V). The issue and grant of these warrants on 30 May 2007 was subsequently ratified and approved by the Executive Committee of the Company on 22 June 2007. In addition, the meeting also passed a resolution to approve an increase in the Company’s registered share capital from 649,020,074 ordinary shares, at a par value of Baht 1 each to 660,849,474 ordinary shares, at a par value of Baht 1 each by increasing 11,829,400 additional ordinary shares. These additional 3,475,000 shares are to be allocated to support warrants from the change in exercise ratios under ESOP Grant I to Grant IV and the remaining 8,354,400 shares are to be allocated to support warrants issuing to its directors and employees under ESOP Grant V. The Company registered the increase in the registered share capital with the Ministry of Commerce on 28 June 2007. The details of the warrants of the Company as at 31 December 2007 are as follows:-

23 Basic and diluted earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit for the year attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares by excluding treasury shares, which were issued and paid up during the year. For the diluted earnings per share, the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue is adjusted to assume conversion of all potential dilutive ordinary shares, which is the weighted average number of ordinary shares by excluding treasury shares, which were issued and paid up during the year and the weighted average number of ordinary shares which would be issued on the conversion of all the dilutive potential ordinary shares into ordinary shares. The assumed proceeds from the exercise of ESOP would be considered to have been received from the issue of shares at fair value. These represent share options where the exercise price is less than the average market price of the Company’s shares for the year ended 31 December 2007. Basic and diluted earnings per share are as follows:-

In addition, there were trainings in marketing products such as package designing and food processing, for youth and housewives at Ban Pa Miang School, Ban Sam Kha School, Wat Ban Paen Pongchai Education Centre in Lampang province, and Hill Area and Community Development Foundation in Chiang Rai province. These activities were held in celebration of His Majesty King Bhumibolûs 80th Birthday Anniversary. Realising the importance of learning by means of "Reaching, Understanding and Developing" which is essential to the development of the youth and nation, CS LoxInfo has determined to promote learning and propagate information that benefits communities and young people in order that new ideas are generated and people can adapt them to suit their own talents and the needs of their communities. The good deeds we did in the passing year 2007 were a fitting tribute to His Majesty the King. In 2008, CS LoxInfo continues contributing to flourishing Thai society. We hope that communities will take advantage of the provided knowledge. All of our efforts are to produce practical, concrete results that are continuous and sustainable. This is in dedication to HM the King on the auspicious occasion of His 80th Birthday Anniversary.
