b. Market Risk
Market risk is the risk of loss on future earnings, on fair values or on future cash flows that may result from changes in market prices. The value of a financial instrument may change as a result of changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchanges rates, commodity prices, equity prices and other market changes. The Company’s market risk emanates from its holdings in debt and equity securities.
The Company closely monitors the prices of its debt and equity securities as well as macroeconomic and entity-specific factors which could directly or indirectly affect the prices of these instruments. In case of an expected decline in its portfolio of equity securities, the Company readily disposes or trades the securities for replacement with more viable and less risky investments.
Equity Price Risk
The Company closely monitors the prices of its debt and equity securities as well as macroeconomic and entity-specific factors which could directly or indirectly affect the prices of these instruments. In case of an expected decline in its portfolio of equity securities, the Company readily disposes or trades the securities for replacement with more viable and less risky investments.
21
Such investment securities are subject to price risk due to changes in market values of instruments arising either from factors specific to individual instruments or their issuers, or factors affecting all instruments traded in the market.
Interest Rate Risk
The Company’s exposure to market risk for changes in fixed interest rates relates primarily to the Company’s money market placements and debt securities.
There is no other impact on the Company’s equity other than those already affecting net income.
c. Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause the other party to incur a financial loss. With respect to credit risk arising from cash and cash equivalents, receivables, financial assets at FVTPL and financial assets at FVOCI, the Company’s exposure to credit risk is equal to the carrying amount of these instruments. The Company limits its credit risk on these assets by dealing only with reputable counterparties.
For cash and cash equivalents, the Company applies the low credit risk simplification where the Company measures the ECLs on a 12-month basis based on the probability of default and loss given default which are publicly available. The Company also evaluates the credit ratingofthebank and otherfinancial institutions to determinewhetherthe debt instrument has significantly increased in credit risk and to estimate ECLs.
The Company considers its cash and cash equivalents as high grade since these are placed in financial institutions of high credit standing. Accordingly, ECLs relating to these debt instruments rounds to nil.
The Company’s receivables are aged current as of December 31, 2023 and 2022. No receivables are considered creditimpaired.
As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the carrying values of the Company’s financial instruments represent maximum exposure as of reporting date.
Please refer to Note 14 of the 2023 AFS for the maximum credit risk exposures on the financial instruments.

Lower net unrealized losses in the changes in market values (of investment in stocks at FVTPL) from ₱6.889 million in 2020 to ₱2.287 million in 2021 is mainly due to slight recovery of the investments in stocks traded at the PSE.

BulkoftheincreaseintheGeneralandadministrativeexpensesismainlyduetotheCompany’sshareintheplug /abandonmentcostofpreviousoilexplorationproject.
Provision for income tax pertains to the Minimum Corporate Income Tax (MCIT) set-up. The Company set-up MCIT rather than the 25% regular tax because most of its income are from unrealized market changes of investments and passive income subject to final tax. The decline from last year’s provision is mainly due to the change intheMCITratefrom2%to 1%.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Seafront Resources Corporation
7th Floor, JMT Building, ADB Avenue
Ortigas Center, Pasig City
Reporton the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Seafront Resources Corporation (the Company), which comprise the statements of financial position as at December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the statements of comprehensive income, statements of changes in equity and statements of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2023, and notes to the financial statements, including material accounting policy information.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2023 and 2022, and its financial performance and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2023 in accordance with Philippine Financial Reporting Standards (PFRSs).
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with Philippine Standards on Auditing (PSAs). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants in the Philippines (Code of Ethics) together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the Philippines, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. For the matter below, our description of how our audit addressed the matter is provided in that context.
We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report, including in relation to this matter. Accordingly, our audit included the performance of procedures designed to respond to our assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements. The results of our audit procedures, including the procedures performed to address the matter below, provide the basis for our audit opinion on the accompanying financial statements.

Valuation of unquoted equity securities
The Company has an investment in the unquoted equity security of Hermosa Ecozone Development Corporation (HEDC) classified as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income which is carried at the estimated fair value of P=490.65 million as of December 31, 2023 comprising 73.51% of its total assets. The valuation of this investment is significant to our audit because it is inherently subjective as it involves the use of valuation inputs that are not market observable. Management also applied judgement in selecting the valuation technique and the assumptions to be used.
The Company’s disclosures about its unquoted equity investment in HEDC are included in Note 8 to the financial statements.
Audit response
We evaluated the valuation technique and assumptions used. These assumptions include comparative sales price of substitute properties and cost to develop the parcels of land. We compared the key assumptions such as relevant information supporting the sales price of similar properties and the adjustments made to the sales price against real estate industry data. We also reviewed the Company’s disclosures about those assumptions to which the outcome of the valuation is most sensitive; specifically, those that have the most significant effect on the determination of the fair value of the unquoted equity investment.
Other Information
Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the SEC Form 20-IS (Definitive Information Statement), SEC Form 17-A and Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2023, but does not include the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The SEC Form 20-IS (Definitive Information Statement), SEC Form 17-A and Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2023 are expected to be made available to us after the date of this auditor’s report.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we will not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audits of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audits, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged withGovernance for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with PFRSs, 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.
*SGVFS188897* - 2 -
A member firm of Ernst & Young Global Limited
In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’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 Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for theAudit of the Financial Statements
Our 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 our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with PSAs 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 PSAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
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 our 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 Company’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 Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company 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.

We 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 we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we 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 our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we 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. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
Reporton the Supplementary Information Required Under Revenue Regulations 15-2010
The supplementary information required under Revenue Regulations NO. 15-2010 for purposes of filing with the Bureau of Internal Revenue is presented by the management of Seafront Resources Corporation in a separate schedule. Revenue Regulations No. 15-2010 requires the information to be presented in the notes to financial statements. Such information is not a required part of the basic financial statements. The information is also not required by the Revised Securities Regulation Code Rule 68. Our opinion on the basic financial statements is not affected by the presentation of the information in a separate schedule.

4. Summary of Material AccountingPolicies
Financial Instruments
Initial recognition and subsequent measurement
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.
Financial assets - Initial recognition and measurement
Financial assets are classified, at initial recognition, as subsequently measured at amortized cost; FVOCI; and FVTPL.
The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset’s contractual cash flow characteristics andtheCompany’sbusinessmodel formanagingthem. TheCompanyinitially measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs.
In order for a financial asset to be classified and measured at amortized cost or fair value through OCI, it needs to give rise to cash flow that are ‘solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI)’ on the principal amount outstanding. This assessment is referred to as the SPPI test and is performed at an instrument level.
The Company’s business model for managing financial assets refers to how it manages its financial assets in order to generate cash flows. The business model determines whether cash flows will result from collecting contractual cash flows, selling the financial assets, or both.
Subsequent measurement
For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in four categories:
Financial assets at amortized cost (debt instruments)
Financial assets at FVOCI with recycling of cumulative gains and losses (debt instruments)
Financial assets designated at FVOCI with no recycling of cumulative gains and losses upon derecognition (equity instruments)
Financial assets at FVTPL
*SGVFS188897*
Financial assets at amortized cost (debt instruments)
The Company measures financial assets at amortized cost if both of the following conditions are met:
The financial asset is held within a business model with the objective to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and
The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise onspecified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
Financial assets at amortized cost are subsequently measured using the effective interest (EIR) method and are subject to impairment. Gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss when the asset is derecognized, modified or impaired.
The Company’s financial assets at amortized cost includes cash and cash equivalents and receivables.
Financial assets at FVTPL
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets held for trading, financial assets designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss, or financial assets mandatorily required to be measured at fair value. Financial assets are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near term. Derivatives, including separated embedded derivatives, are also classified as held for trading unless they are designated as effective hedginginstruments. Financial assetswith cash flowsthatare not solelypaymentsofprincipal and interest are classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss, irrespective of the business model. Notwithstanding the criteria for debt instruments to be classified at amortized cost or at fair value through OCI, as described above, debt instruments may be designated as at FVTPL on initial recognition if doing so eliminates, or significantly reduces, an accounting mismatch.
FinancialassetsatFVTPL arecarriedinthestatementoffinancialpositionatfairvaluewithnetchanges in fair value recognized in profit or loss.
This category includes derivative instruments and quoted equity investments which the Company had not irrevocably elected to classify at fair value through OCI. Dividends on quoted equity investments are also recognized as other income in profit or loss when the right of payment has been established.
The Company’s financial assets at FVTPL consists of investments in quoted equity securities held for trading.
Financial assets designated at FVOCI (equity instruments)
Upon initial recognition, the Company can elect to classify irrevocably its equity investments as equity instruments designated at FVOCI when they meet the definition of equity under PAS 32 and are not held for trading. The classification is determined on an instrument-by-instrument basis.
Gains and losses on these financial assets are never recycled to profit or loss. Dividends are recognized as other income in profit or loss when the right of payment has been established, except when the Company benefits from such proceeds as a recovery of part of the cost of the financial asset, in which case, such gains are recorded in OCI. Equity instruments designated at FVOCI are not subject to impairment assessment.
The Company’s financial assets at FVOCI include quoted and unquoted equity securities and quoted government securities.
*SGVFS188897*
- 3 -
Impairment of financial assets
The Company recognizes an allowance for ECLs for all debt instruments not held at FVTPL. ECLs are based on the difference between the contractual cash flows due in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Company expects to receive, discounted at an approximation of the original effective interest rate. The expected cash flows will include cash flows from the sale of collateral held or other credit enhancements that are integral to the contractual terms.
ECLs are recognized in two stages. For credit exposures for which there has not been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, ECLs are provided for credit losses that result from default events that are possible within the next 12-months (a 12-month ECL). For those credit exposures for which there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, a loss allowance is required for credit losses expected over the remaining life of the exposure, irrespective of the timing of the default (a lifetime ECL).
The Company may consider a financial asset to be in default when internal or external information indicates that the Company is unlikely to receive the outstanding contractual amounts in full before taking into accountany credit enhancements heldbytheCompany. A financial assetis written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovering the contractual cash flows.
Financial liabilities - Initial recognition and measurement
The Company’s financial liabilities consist of payables and accrued expenses classified, at initial recognition, as loans and borrowings recognized at fair value.
After initial recognition, interest-bearing loansand borrowings are subsequentlymeasured at amortized cost using the EIR method.
Derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities
Financial assets
A financial asset (or where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is derecognized when:
the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired;
the Company retains the rights to receive cash flows from the asset, but has assumed an obligation to pay them in full without material delay to a third party under a “pass-through” arrangement; or
the Company has transferred its right to receive cash flows from the asset and either (a) has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.
Financial liabilities
A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged, cancelled or has expired.
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 market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:
In the principal market for the asset or liability, or
In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.
*SGVFS188897*
- 4 -
The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible to by the Company. The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.
The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:
Level 1 - Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable
Level 3 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable
For assets and liabilities that are recognized in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between Levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.
Capital Stock
Capital stock is measured at par value for all shares issued. Incremental costs incurred directly attributable to the issuance of new shares are shown in equity as a deduction from proceeds, net of tax. When the Company purchases its own capital stock (treasury shares), the consideration paid, including any attributable incremental costs, is deducted from equity until the shares are cancelled, reissued or disposed of. Where such shares are subsequently sold or reissued, any consideration received, net of any directly attributable incremental transaction costs and the related tax effects is included in equity.
Retained Earnings
Retained earnings represent accumulated earnings of the Company less dividends declared and with consideration of any changes in accounting policies and other adjustments applied retroactively. The retained earnings of the Company are available for dividends only upon approval and declaration of the BOD.
Earnings Per Share (EPS)
Basic earnings per share are computed on the basis of the weighted average number of shares outstanding duringtheyearaftergiving retroactiveeffect foranystockdividendsdeclaredin thecurrent year.
Revenue Recognition
Interest income
Interest income is recognized as the interest accrues taking into account the effective yield on the asset.
Dividend income
Dividend income is recognized when the Company’s right to receive the payment is established, which is generally when the BOD approves the dividend declaration.
*SGVFS188897*
- 5 -
Rental income
Rental income under non-cancellable leases is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the lease terms, as provided under the terms of the lease contract.
Management income
Management income from contacts with customers is recognized when control of the services is transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods. The Company has concluded that it is the principal in its revenue arrangement since it is the primary obligor in all revenue arrangements, has pricing latitude and is also exposed to credit risk. Management incomeis recognized over time, using an input method to measure progress towards complete satisfaction of the service, because the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Company.
General and Administrative Expenses
Expenses are recorded when incurred. General and administrative expenses constitute costs of administering the business.
Income Tax
Current tax
Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantially enacted by the reporting date.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is provided on all temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, carryforward of unused tax credits from excess minimum corporate income tax (MCIT) over regular corporate income tax and unused net operating loss carryover (NOLCO), to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carryforward of unused tax credits from excess MCIT and unexpired NOLCO can be utilized.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilized. Unrecognized deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted at the reporting date.
Events After the Reporting Date
Post year-end events up to the date of auditors’ report that provide additional information about the Company’s situation at the reporting date (adjusting events) are reflected in the financial statements, if any. Post year-end events that are not adjusting events are disclosed in the notes when material.

5. Significant Accounting Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of the accompanying financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and related notes. The judgments, estimates and assumptions used in the financial statements are based upon management’s evaluation of relevant facts and circumstances as of the date of the Company’s financial statements. Actual results could differ from such estimates.
Judgments and estimates are contractually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Judgments
In the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies, management has made the following judgments, apart fromthoseinvolvingestimations, which hasthemost significant effect ontheamounts recognized in the financial statements:
Recognition of deferred tax assets
The Company’s deferred tax assets pertain to the carryforward benefits of NOLCO and excess MCIT over RCIT. Judgmentis required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognized, based upon the likely timing and level of future taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies.
The Company did not recognize deferred tax assets amounting to P=3.79 million and P=3.22 million as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively (see Note 12). Management believes that it may not be probable that sufficient taxable income will be available against which the income tax benefits can be realized prior to their expiration.
Estimates and Assumptions
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the statements of financial position date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.
Estimation of fair value of unquoted equity securities classified as financial assets at FVOCI
The Company uses its judgment to select the most appropriate valuation methodology to value its unquotedequityinvestmentsandmakeassumptionsthataremainly basedonmarket conditionsexisting at each reporting period. As of December31, 2023 and 2022, theCompany valued the unquoted equity securities classified as financial assets at FVOCI using the adjusted net asset method which is a combination of the market and income approaches. It involves directly measuring the fair value of the assets and liabilities of the investee company, as mainly determined by the Company’s external appraiser. Assets of the investee company consist mainly of parcels of land for sale which is adjusted to its fair value. The fair value adjustments arising from changes in fair value of unquoted equity securities are fully disclosed in Note 8.

Investment in HEDC
On January 31, 1997, the Company entered into a Project Shareholders’ Agreement with five other companies led by Investment and Capital Corporation of the Philippines (ICCP) and Penta Capital Investment Corporation (PCIC) to develop 500 to 600 hectares of raw land in Hermosa, Bataan into a new township consisting of industrial estates, residential communities, a golf and country club and a commercial center.
The fair value of investment in HEDC is determined using the adjusted net asset value method wherein the assets of HEDC consisting mainly of parcels of land are adjusted from cost to its fair value. The valuation of the parcels of land was performed by a SEC-accredited independent valuer as at December 31, 2023 and 2022. This measurement falls under Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
Fair value measurement disclosures for the determination of fair value of unquoted equity securities are provided in Note 14.
9. Receivables
10. Other Income
Management income pertains to accounting, legal and administrative services rendered by the Company to HEDC (see Note 13).
Rental income pertains to rentals earned from the two (2) parking slots owned by the Company which are classified as investment property. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the cost of the fully depreciated parking slots amounted to P=207,598.

The fair value of the investment property ranges from P=800,000 to P=1,000,000 per slot as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. This has been determined on the basis of recent sales of similar properties in the same area as the investment property and taking into account the economic conditions prevailing at the time the valuation was made. The significant unobservable inputs used in determining the fair value include the location, size, shape, and highest and best use (Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs). There are no related costs for the operation of the investment property.
11. General and Administrative Expenses
13)
Plug and abandonment cost pertains to the Company’s share in the plug and abandonment of Service Contract 14 of Tara South Well 1 (the Tara South Well 1). As discussed in Note 1, the Company was registered with SEC in 1970 as an oil exploration and production company. The Company invested in various oil exploration projects, including the Tara South Well 1. The Tara South Well 1 operated, generated revenues and was permanently plugged and abandoned. As stated in the service contract of Tara South Well 1, the Company, being a member of the consortium is liable for its share in its plug and abandonment. In 2021, the Company received the final billing of said share.
Miscellaneous expenses consist of condominium dues, office supplies, bank charges, notarial fees, IT services, among others.
12. Income Taxes
a. The current provision for income tax for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 represents MCIT.
On June 20, 2023, the Bureau of Internal Revenue issued Revenue Memorandum Circular (RMC) No. 69-2023 reverting the MCIT rate to 2% of gross income effective July 1, 2023 pursuant to Republic Act (RA) No. 11534, otherwise known as the “Corporate Recovery and Tax Incentives for Enterprises (CREATE)” Act. MCIT rate was previously reduced from 2% to 1% effectively July 1, 2020 to June 30, 2023 upon the effectivity of CREATE Act in 2021.

14. Financial Instruments
Categories and Fair Values of Financial Instruments
The methods and assumptions used by the Company in estimating the fair values of the financial instruments are:
Cash and cash equivalents and receivables
Due to the short-term nature of the instruments, carrying amounts approximate fair values as of the reporting date.
Government securities
Fairvaluesaregenerallybasedonquotedmarket pricesatreportingdate. Thisis underLevel 1category of the fair value hierarchy.
Equity securities
For quoted equity securities, fair values are based on published quoted prices. This is under Level 1 category of the fair value hierarchy.
For unquoted equity securities, fair values are determined using the adjusted net asset value method which involves directly measuring the fair value of the assets and liabilities of the investee company. This measurement falls under Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
Accounts payable and accrued expenses
Carrying values approximate fair values due to their short-term nature.

Description
of
significant unobservable inputs to valuation:
The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy together with a quantitative sensitivity analysis as at December 31, 2023 and 2022 are shown below:
Valuation technique Significant unobservable
Unquoted equity shares at FVOCI
The appraised value of the land was determined using the market approach which is a valuation technique that uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets. Adjustment factors arising from external and internal factors (i.e. location, size/shape/terrain, and development) affecting the subject properties as compared to the market listing of comparable properties ranges from -20% to -12% in 2023 and from -20% to -10% in 2022. Significant favorable (unfavorable) adjustments to the aforementioned factors based on the professional judgment of the independent appraisers would increase (decrease) the fair value of land, in return the fair value of the unquoted financial asset.

Market risk
Market risk is the risk of loss on future earnings, on fair values or on future cash flows that may result from changes in market prices. The value of a financial instrument may change as a result of changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchanges rates, commodity prices, equity prices and other market changes. The Company’s market risk emanates from its holdings in debt and equity securities.
The Company closely monitors the prices of its debt and equity securities as well as macroeconomic and entity-specific factors which could directly or indirectly affect the prices of these instruments. In case of an expected decline in its portfolio of equity securities, the Company readily disposes or trades the securities for replacement with more viable and less risky investments.
The analysis below is performed for reasonably possible change in the market price of quoted shares classified as financial assets at FVTPL, with all other variables held constant, showing the impact on income before tax:
The table below demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in the market price of quoted shares classified as financial assets at FVOCI, with all other variables held constant, showing the impact on equity:

The percentage of increase and decrease in market price is based on the movement in the Philippine Stock Exchange Index from beginning to end of the year.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause the other party to incur a financial loss. With respect to credit risk arising from cash and cash equivalents, receivables, financial assets at FVTPL and financial assets at FVOCI, the Company’s exposure to credit risk is equal to the carrying amount of these instruments. The Company limits its credit risk on these assets by dealing only with reputable counterparties.
For cash and cash equivalents and quoted government securities, the Company applies the low credit risksimplification wheretheCompanymeasurestheECLsona12-monthbasisbasedontheprobability of default and loss given default which are publicly available. The Company also evaluates the credit rating of the bank and other financial institutions to determine whether the debt instrument has significantly increased in credit risk and to estimate ECLs.
The Company considers its cash and cash equivalents and quoted government securities as high grade since these are placed in financial institutions of high credit standing. Accordingly, ECLs relating to these debt instruments rounds to nil.
The Company’s receivables are aged current as of December 31, 2023 and 2022. No receivables are considered credit-impaired.
As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the carrying values of the Company’s financial instruments represent maximum exposure as of reporting date.
The table below shows the comparative summary of maximum credit risk exposures on financial instruments as of December 31, 2023 and 2022:

Thefairvalueforfinancialinstruments tradedinactivemarkets atthereportingdateis basedontheirquoted market price without any deduction for transaction costs. For securities in which current bid and asking prices are not available, the price of the most recent transaction provides evidence of the current fair value as long as there has not been a significant change in economic circumstances since the time of the transaction.
For unquoted financial securities, the Company uses its judgment to select the most appropriate valuation methodology to value its unquoted equity investments and make assumptions that are mainly based on market conditions existing at each reporting period. It involves directly measuring the fair value of the assets and liabilities of the investee company, as mainly determined by the Company’s external appraiser. Assets of the investee company consist mainly of parcels of land for sale which is adjusted to its fair value.
Schedule B. Amounts Receivable from Directors, Officers, Employees, Related Parties and Principal Stockholders (Other than Related Parties)

January 1 to December 31, 2023
Milagros V. Reyes - President
Explain how you applied the materiality principle (or the materiality process) in identifying your material topics
As a holding Company, SRC has very minimal operations. Its sustainability focus was to ensure that its investment in capital market and business venture would yield optimum values for its shareholders. For this report, the material topics that were identified were those relating to economic impact and how the Company mitigates risks and recognizes opportunities.
In succeeding Sustainability Reports, the following additional steps will be employed to identify other material topics:
a) Identification – this involves discussion on sustainability issues and how the Company can focus its efforts on crafting its sustainability agenda;
b) Prioritization – this entails determination and prioritization of the material topics based on the relevance and degree of impact to business’ operations; and
c) Validation – this pertains to the process of gathered pertinent data to further deliberate on the topic and validate results.

Direct Economic Value Discussion on Impact, Risks, and Management Approach
Seafront Resources Corporation (SPM or SRC) was registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on April 16, 1970 as an oil exploration and production company. On October 18, 1996, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation which provides for the revision of its primary purpose from engaging in the business of oil exploration and production into a holding company.
On January 31, 1997, the Company entered into aProject Shareholders’ Agreement with fiveother companies led by Investment and Capital Corporation of the Philippines and Penta Capital Investment Corporation to develop 500 to 600 hectares of raw land in Hermosa, Bataan (through Hermosa Ecozone Development Corporation or HEDC) into a new township consisting of industrial estates, residential communities, a golf and country club and a commercial center. SRC holds 11.33% shares interest in HEDC.
HEDC started its land development in 2002 and has developed a total of 163 hectares in the industrial area. The remaining 368 hectares are allocated for leisure area. Initial sale of lotwas atPhp1,400/sqm in 2007.Sales started to pick up from 2017 to 2023. From 2017 to 2023, HEDC sold a total of 1,034,104 sqm of lots for a gross revenue of Php3.691 billion.
HEDC has already declared and paid a total of Php1.049 million of dividends, wherein SRC received its share in the amount of Php119 million.
For 2023, the direct economic value contributed by SRC amounted toPhp 6.64millioncomposedof costs from operation and taxes to government.
SRC’s management and administration are done by its affiliate Company, PetroEnergy Resources Corporation (PERC).PERCoverseesthefinancial,treasury,legal,andadministrativefunctionsofSRC.Asaholdingcompany, SRC has very minimal to no environmental and social impact. However, its generated economic value, which include taxes paid to government, indirectly contributes to social development projects of host local government units where it operates.
SRC recognizes the following risks and implements several management approaches to mitigate the identified risks.
(1) Political, Economic, and Legal Risks in the Philippines
As an emerging market, the Philippines is exposed to various political and economic risks that may affect the Company. Over the years, the country was met with political instability brought by mass demonstrations, military coup, and election-related issues. These scenarios undeniably affect the Philippine economy resulting in negative impact such as decline in Peso, higher interest rates , increased

unemployment, greater volatility and lower value of stock market, lower credit rating of the country, and the reduction of the country’s foreign currency reserves. Any negative impact may also pose a negative effect to SRC’s financial performance.
(2) Equity Partnership Risk
The Company entered into a Project Shareholder’s Agreement with five other companies led by Investment and Capital Corporation of the Philippines and Penta Capital Investment Corporation to develop 500-600 hectares of raw land in Hermosa, Bataan into a township consisting of industrial estates, residential communities, a golf and country club and a commercial center. This situation may involve special risks associated with the possibility that the equity partner (i) may have economic or business interests or goals that are inconsistent with those of the Company; (ii) take actions contrary to the interests of the Company; (iii) be unable or unwilling to fulfill its obligations under the Project Shareholder’s Agreement; or (iv)experience financial difficulties. These conflicts may adversely affect the Company’s operations.
(3) Financial Risk
The main financial risks arising from the Company’s financial instruments are liquidity risk, market risk and interest rate risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company is unable to meet its financial obligation when due. The Company has substantial investments in shares of stock which are not listed in the Philippine Stock Exchange and may not be readily convertible to liquid assets necessary to meet any potential additional liquidity requirements of the Company.
Market risk is the risk of loss onfuture earnings, on fair values oron future cash flows that may result from changes inmarket prices. The value of a financial instrument may change as a result of changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchanges rates, commodity prices, equity prices and other market changes. The Company’s market risk emanates from its holdings in debt and equity securities.
The Company’s exposure to market risk for changes in fixed interest rates relates primarily to the Company’s money market placements and debt securities.
(4) Risks due to health crisis or pandemic
Health crisis, such as the COVID-19 pandemic which started in late 2019 has also negatively affected the financial markets. SRC is exposed to this risk because of its investments in HEDC shares of stocks. On the other hand, as Company with limited or very little on-site operations, SRC was also able to perform its corporate function despite many disruptions in many businesses.
To mitigate these risks, SRC closely monitors global and national economic and political issues that may have impact to the Company. In addition, it also establishes and cultivates good relationship and mutual respect among its partners to ensure that equity risk is mitigated.
To manage health-related risks, SRC will ensure unhampered operations by employing business continuity practices and tools.
To manage its financial risks, SRC continuously monitors its cash position and overall liquidity position. The Company maintains a level of cash and cash equivalents deemed sufficient to finance operations and to
3 of 11 SRC 2023 Sustainability Report
mitigate the effects of fluctuation in cash flows.
SRC also closely monitors the prices of its debt and equity securities as well as macroeconomic and entityspecific factors which could directly or indirectly affect the prices of these instruments. In case of an expected decline in its portfolio of equity securities, the Company readily disposes or trades the securities for replacement.
Discussion on Opportunities
To further improve the economic value of SRC, the Company recognizes other opportunities in capital market by building up on its reputation as a profitable holding company. SRC also expects to increase its direct and indirect economic impact when HEDC is fully developed and operated.
Climate-related risks and opportunities
As a holding Company, SRC is not directly at risk of climate-related threats. However, the SRC Board of Directors is tasked to primarily manage the overall risks and opportunities by establishing the Board Risk Oversight Committee (BROC).
At present the Company has no formal climate-related risk strategies and metrics. Nonetheless, the Company will consider adopting a formal enterprise risk management program.

ENVIRONMENT
Over the years, SRC’s investee, HEDC follows best practices in environmentalmanagement and adheres to the highest environmental protection standards. It likewise implements waste reduction and proper disposal protocols to ensure that impact to environment is managed and mitigated. HEDC also encourages and welcomes locators who are into the renewable energy business. In 2016, an all-Filipino solar company, YH Green Energy Company, started to generate electricity from its 14.5 MW utility scale solar power project located in HEDC. This project does not only contribute to power stability in the country, but most importantly help combat GHG emissions.

4. SummaryofSignificantAccountingPolicies
FinancialInstruments
Initial recognition and subsequent measurement
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liabilityor equityinstrumentofanotherentity.
Financial assets - Initial recognition and measurement
Financial assets are classified, at initial recognition, as subsequently measured at amortized cost; FVOCI;andFVTPL.
The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset’s contractual cashflowcharacteristicsandtheCompany’sbusinessmodelformanagingthem.TheCompanyinitially measuresafinancialassetatitsfairvalueplus,inthe caseofafinancialassetnotatfairvaluethrough profitorloss,transactioncosts.
InorderforafinancialassettobeclassifiedandmeasuredatamortizedcostorfairvaluethroughOCI, it needs to give rise to cash flow that are ‘solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI)’ on the principal amount outstanding. This assessment is referred to as the SPPI test and is performed at an instrumentlevel.
The Company’s business model for managing financial assets refers to how it manages its financial assets in order to generate cash flows. The business model determines whethercash flows will result fromcollectingcontractualcashflows,sellingthefinancialassets,orboth.
Subsequent measurement
Forpurposesofsubsequentmeasurement,financialassetsareclassifiedinfourcategories:
Financialassetsatamortizedcost(debtinstruments)
FinancialassetsatFVOCIwithrecyclingofcumulativegainsandlosses(debtinstruments)
Financial assets designated at FVOCI with no recycling of cumulative gains and losses upon derecognition(equityinstruments)

Financial assets at amortized cost (debt instruments)

Financialassetsatamortizedcostaresubsequentlymeasuredusingtheeffectiveinterest(EIR)method and are subject to impairment. Gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss when the asset is derecognized,modifiedorimpaired.
TheCompany’sfinancialassetsat amortizedcostincludescashandcashequivalentsandreceivables.
Financial assets at FVTPL
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets held for trading, financial assets designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss, or financial assets mandatorily required tobe measured atfair value. Financial assets are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near term. Derivatives, including separated embedded derivatives, are also classified as held for trading unless they are designated as effectivehedginginstruments.Financialassetswithcashflowsthatarenotsolelypaymentsofprincipal andinterestareclassifiedandmeasuredatfairvaluethroughprofitorloss,irrespectiveofthebusiness model. Notwithstanding the criteria for debt instruments to be classified at amortized cost or at fair value through OCI, as described above, debt instruments may be designated as at FVTPL on initial recognitionifdoingsoeliminates,orsignificantlyreduces,anaccountingmismatch.
FinancialassetsatFVTPLarecarriedinthestatementoffinancialpositionatfairvaluewithnetchanges infairvaluerecognizedinprofitorloss.
This category includes derivative instruments andquoted equity investments which the Companyhad not irrevocably elected to classify at fair value through OCI. Dividends on quoted equityinvestments arealsorecognizedasotherincomeinprofitorlosswhenthe rightofpaymenthasbeenestablished.
The Company’s financial assets atFVTPL consists of investmentsinquotedequity securitiesheldfor trading.
Financial assets designated at FVOCI (equity instruments)
Uponinitialrecognition,theCompanycanelecttoclassifyirrevocablyitsequityinvestmentsasequity instruments designated at FVOCI when they meet the definition of equity under PAS 32 and are not heldfortrading. Theclassificationisdeterminedonaninstrument-by-instrumentbasis.
Gainsandlossesonthesefinancialassetsareneverrecycledtoprofitorloss.Dividendsarerecognized as other income in profit or loss when the right of payment has been established, except when the Companybenefitsfromsuchproceedsasarecovery ofpartofthecostof thefinancialasset,inwhich case, such gains are recorded in OCI. Equity instruments designated at FVOCI are not subject to impairmentassessment.
The Company’s financial assets at FVOCI include quoted and unquoted equity securities and quoted governmentsecurities.
Impairment of financial assets
The Company recognizes an allowance for ECLs for all debt instruments not held at FVTPL. ECLs arebasedonthedifferencebetweenthecontractualcashflowsdueinaccordancewiththecontractand allthecashflowsthattheCompanyexpectstoreceive,discountedatanapproximationofthe original effectiveinterestrate. Theexpectedcashflowswillincludecashflowsfromthesaleofcollateralheld orothercreditenhancementsthatareintegraltothecontractualterms.

ECLs are recognized in two stages. For credit exposures for which there has not been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, ECLs are provided for credit losses that result from defaulteventsthatarepossiblewithinthenext12-month(a12-monthECL). Forthosecreditexposures for whichtherehasbeenasignificant increasein credit risksinceinitialrecognition, a lossallowance isrequiredforcreditlossesexpectedovertheremaininglifeoftheexposure,irrespectiveofthetiming ofthedefault(alifetimeECL).
The Company may consider a financial asset to be in default when internal or external information indicates that the Company is unlikely to receive the outstanding contractual amounts in full before takingintoaccountanycreditenhancementsheldbytheCompany.Afinancialassetiswrittenoffwhen thereisnoreasonableexpectationofrecoveringthecontractualcashflows.
Financial liabilities - Initial recognition and measurement
The Company’s financial liabilities consist of payables and accrued expenses classified, at initial recognition,asloansandborrowingsrecognizedatfairvalue.

CategoriesandFairValuesofFinancialInstruments
The methods and assumptions used by the Company in estimating the fair values of the financial instrumentsare:
Cash and cash equivalents and receivables
Due to the short-term nature of the instruments, carrying amounts approximate fair values as of the reportingdate.
Government securities
Fairvaluesaregenerallybasedonquotedmarketpricesatreportingdate. ThisisunderLevel1category ofthefairvaluehierarchy.
Equity securities
For quoted equity securities, fair values are based on published quoted prices. This is under Level1categoryofthe fairvaluehierarchy.
For unquoted equity securities, fair values are determined using the adjusted net asset value method which involves directly measuring the fair value of the assets and liabilities of the investee company. ThismeasurementfallsunderLevel3inthefairvaluehierarchy.
