GLG Corp Ltd Directors’ Report
Audit Committee
The Audit Committee reviewed the statement of financial position of the consolidated financial statements of GLG for the financial year ended 30 June 2018, as well as the Independent Auditor’s Report thereon before submitting them to the Board for its approval. The Audit Committee discussed with Management the accounting principles that were applied and also considered the appropriateness of the critical accounting estimates and judgments made in preparing the financial statements.
The following significant matters impacting the financial statements were discussed with Management and the external auditor and were reviewed by the Audit Committee:
| Key Matters | How the Audit Committee reviewed these matters and what decisions were made | |
|---|---|---|
| GLG Corp Limited acquired Ghim Li Malaysia Sdn Bhd (GLM) on 30 June 2017, with purchase consideration that includes Goodwill, which represents the difference between the acquisition price and fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired. Under AASB136: Impairment of Assets, Goodwill is required to be tested for impairment, by comparing the carrying value of each asset to its recoverable amount. |
The AC reviewed that: a) Management prepared an impairment analysis to identify any impairment indicators and none were noted. Management concluded there was no impairment required as at 30 June 2018. Key estimates included in the management analysis were: • The use of an appropriate discount rate which is reasonable for the risk profile of GLG • The assumption of a conservative business growth rate for FY2019 and subsequent years including the terminal growth rate. The conclusion of this impairment analysis showed that the resulting goodwill balance was well-supported, with no need for impairment for FY2018 b) The actual financial results of FY2018 against the budget for the year was reviewed and showed that actual performance exceeded the budget targets, giving the AC the assurance that management is capable of producing accurate budgets used in the impairment analysis. Also, allowances for capital expenditure by GLM and Gross Margin assumptions used in the impairment analysis were reasonable and in line with actual performance. After taking into account the above analyses, the AC concurred with management that no impairment charge is required for the GLM acquisition for FY2018. |

Audit Committee (cont’d)
| Key Audit Matters | How the Audit Committee reviewed these matters and what decisions were made |
|---|---|
| Due to the material balance and potential for overstatement, recoverability of receivables is assessed as a risk. |
The AC assessed and confirmed the following: a) Normal trade receivables in GLG Corp Ltd have been reviewed for recoverability, noting that the aging of the receivables do not show any customers having old-aged receivables and that the balances by key customers within the receivables are in line with current trends in business with no recoverability issues. b) The valuation of the GLIT Receivable continues to be an area of focus due to the commercial nature of GLG’s business. Management provided an extensive assessment of the GLIT receivable to support its recoverability. Although the receivable balance due from such outsourced manufacturing suppliers have risen, this was in line with the increase in sales of GLG Corp Ltd which resulted in an increase in working capital and fabric materials sent to them for garment manufacturing. With the accessibility of trust receipts available for offset and the amount of available collaterals in place, the receivable is evaluated to be recoverable at the reporting date. The turnover analysis, which showed the average turnover of the receivable is approximately 3-4 months with constant turning, appears to support its recoverability at period-end. c) Subsequent to the Balance Sheet date, the GLIT receivable in GLG Corp Ltd is expected to be reduced by US$8.5 million, upon completion of the purchase transaction, by way of set-off for the purchase consideration of the specific assets acquired from Ghim Li (Cambodia) Pte Ltd, based on a signed agreement on 28thJune, 2018. |

GLG Corp Ltd Director’s Report
Review of Operations
In the current fiscal year ending June 2018, the Company has enhanced its manufacturing capacity in its fabric mill in Malaysia, with an all-time record of revenue of US$52,267 thousand to support the increased demand of knitted fabric from its customers. This is a new milestone for the fabric mill which was acquired by the Company in late 2016, as part of its vertical-integration and textile manufacturing strategic roadmap. FY2018 also witnessed the Company’s decision to invest in garment manufacturing capacity, for the first time, in Cambodia to supplement its current production in Vietnam and Malaysia. Although the garment factory in Cambodia is still in its infancy stage, this is another step forward to enhance its manufacturing and supply chain business from its original state of being just a trading agent. Finally, the Company was successful to expand its innovative offering of Landed Duty Paid (LDP) services to its customers, with its incremental revenue in FY2018 by shipping the final products from door-to-door to its LDP customers.
Comparison of Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and Comprehensive Income for the financial year ended 30 June 2018 with that of 30 June 2017.
GLG’s sales increased by US$24,565 thousand, or 16% to US$180,606 thousand compared to sales of US$156,041 thousand in the previous year. This is due to business wins achieved in new programs with existing customers, in addition to increase in business volume for repeat orders. LDP (Landed Duty Paid) business which represents direct outbound shipments delivered to customers door-to-door, also contributed to revenue increment from US$10,115 thousand to US$16,299 thousand in this financial year with the higher gross profit margin.
Gross margin slightly improved to 14% compared to 13.76% in the previous year due to increased fabric margin and garment product mix (where the freight costs and customs duty costs of LDP business are categorised under Selling & Distribution costs, as opposed to Cost of Sales).
Other income increased by 225% to US$1,118 thousand compared to US$344 thousand in the previous year mainly attributed to the following
-
1) fair value gain in investment property of US$378 thousand from Malaysia
-
2) payable written back of US$289 thousand
Selling and distribution costs increased by 83.3% to US$6,252 thousand compared to US$3,410 thousand in the previous year, mainly due to (a) increase of US$1,049 thousand in LDP shipments which resulted in higher customs duties payable to U.S. Customs, for door-to-door outbound shipments, and (b) increase of US$1,801 thousand in freight costs incurred on FOB outbound shipments resulting from increased sales.
Administrative expenses increased by 13.4% to US$11,614 thousand compared to US$10,244 thousand in the previous year, mainly attributable to such costs from the acquired garment manufacturing operations in Malaysia and newly-formed subsidiary in Cambodia.
Finance costs increased by 71% from US$1,215 thousand to US$2,077 thousand in the current year compared to previous year, due to the increase in purchase of raw materials to support higher sales and new machineries investment.
Other expenses increased by 7.3% from US$2,469 thousand to US$2,649 thousand due to legal fees incurred during the year in relation to action taken to recover past due receivables.
Net profit after tax for GLG was US$2,395 thousand, which represents a decrease of US$1,798 thousand or 42.9% compared to the financial year ended 30 June 2017 of US$4,193 thousand. Overall, the reduction in net profit after tax was mainly due to pre-production costs incurred by newly-formed Cambodia garment factory.

GLG Corp Ltd Director’s Report
Review of Operations (cont’d)
Comparison of the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as at 30 June 2018 with that of 30 June 2017.
Trade and other receivables increased by 30.5% to US$89,455 thousand as at 30 June 2018 compared to US$68,534 thousand as at 30 June 2017. The increase was primarily due to extended credit given to core customers in the current period and raw material purchase on behalf of outsourced manufacturing suppliers for early production.
Inventory increased by 56% to US$19,480 thousand as at 30 June 2018 compared to US$12,515 thousand as at 30 June 2017, due to increase in the inventory of raw materials and work-in-process within the fabric mill to support customer orders and early production to meet the short-lead time in customer order placement.
Investment property increased in value from US$3,762 thousand as of 30 June 2017to US$5,323 thousand as a result of two reasons: (a) increase in value driven by appreciation of the Malaysia Ringgit over US dollar as the asset is originally denominated in the Malaysia Ringgit, and (b) the reclassification from freehold land and building to Investment Property as the premises was fully rented out in entire FY2018 compared to previous year, FY2017 when a portion was still utilised internally i.e. not rented out. The investment property was subsequently reclassified to property, plant and equipment as the property was rented out to a company within the consolidated group.
Trade and other payables increased by 46% to US$37,249 thousand as at 30 June 2018 compared to US$25,580 thousand as at 30 June 2017, resulting from increase in purchases of raw materials in advance for future production.
Current and non-current borrowings increased by 24% to US$80,276 thousand as at 30 June 2018 compared to US$64,702 thousand as at 30 June 2017, as a result of increase in trade financing from financial institutions to support the business growth.
Comparison of the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the financial year ended 30 June 2018 with that of 30 June 2017.
GLG’s cash from operating activities increased by 394% to US$6,809 thousand as at 30 June 2018 compared to US$1,378 thousand as at 30 June 2017. This increase resulted from increase in sales for the financial year.
Net cash used in investing was decreased by US$4,664 thousand or 51% to US$4,570 thousand as at 30 June 2018 compared to US$9,234 thousand as at 30 June 2017. This was mainly attributable to additions of new plant & machinery and renovation in the Vietnam factory to meet the needs of higher production levels in the previous financial year, FY2017.
Net cash used in financing was increased to US$937 thousand as at 30 June 2018 compared to cash provided of US$6,829 thousand as at 30 June 2018. The increase stemmed from financing the working capital incurred in the factories for fabric and garment production and the long extended payment terms accorded to GLG’s customers which increases the level of cash utilised in trade financing.
We believe the cash flows from operations of GLG remains sufficient to meet our working capital requirements, capital expenditures, debt servicing and other funding requirements for the foreseeable future.

GLG Corp Ltd Director’s Report
Changes in state of affairs
In August 2017, Ghim Li International (S) Pte Ltd (GLIS), a fully owned subsidiary of GLG Corp Ltd, with the assistance of Ghim Li Group Pte Ltd, set up a legal entity in Cambodia, called GG Fashion Cambodia Co. Ltd (GGFC), which was incorporated under the laws of Cambodia. The rationale of establishing GGFC is part of GLG’s strategy of vertical-integration and expansion of supply chain garment manufacturing, by expanding its presence in Cambodia to offer higher value-add services and advantage to its customers. GGFC also serves as the legal vehicle, in future, to own the specific assets to be acquired from by GLG to enhance its manufacturing capacity. The financial performance and assets/liabilities of GGFC, since incorporation, are accounted for as part of GLG’s results for FY2018, in accordance with the requirements of AASB 10 – Consolidated Financial Statements.
There were no other significant changes in the state of affairs of the consolidated entity during the financial year.
Dividends
In respect of the financial year ended 30 June 2018, the Directors do not recommend the payment of a final dividend and no interim dividend was paid. In respect of the financial year ended 30 June 2017, no dividend was declared.
Subsequent events
On 28 June 2018, Ghim Li International (S) Pte Ltd, a fully-owned subsidiary of GLG Corp Ltd, has entered into an agreement with Ghim Li (Cambodia) Pte Ltd and its parent company, GLIT Holdings Pte Ltd to acquire some specific assets in the latter’s garment manufacturing factory in Cambodia. The assets to be acquired consist of machinery and equipment, some other fixed assets and intangible assets such as trade name and customer network, employee database and records.
Ghim Li International (S) Pte Ltd plans to establish a garment manufacturing factory in Cambodia with a new legal entity in Cambodia, which will then be assigned to own and manage these assets acquired from the sellers. The rationale of this acquisition is to allow Ghim Li International (S) Pte Ltd to set up its own garment manufacturing factory in Cambodia to supplement its current garment manufacturing investment in Vietnam and Malaysia.
The completion of this acquisition is subject to the fulfilment of certain conditions, namely (a) the securing of Board approvals for GLIS, GLIT Holdings and Ghim Li Cambodia respectively, (b) obtaining regulatory and statutory approvals in Singapore and Cambodia and (c) the establishment of the legal entity by GLIS in Cambodia. Management expects all of these conditions to be met after 30 June 2018, hence this acquisition transaction is mentioned here as a subsequent balance sheet event. GLIT Holdings Pte Ltd and its subsidiaries provide outsourced manufacturing services to GLG Corp Ltd and the receivables owed by GLIT to GLG Corp will be reduced by the same amount of the purchase consideration for the specific assets upon completion of this transaction, by way of set-off.
Future Developments
The consolidated entity is expanding fabric suppliers to include fashion novelty and also to increase the amount of work with outsourced factories. The performance depends on many economic and industry factors. In the opinion of the Directors, it is not possible or appropriate to make a prediction on the future course of markets, performance of the Consolidated Entity’s or the forecast of the likely result of the Consoldiated Entity’s activities.
Environmental Regulation
The consolidated Entity is not subject to any particular or significant environmental regulation.
Shares under option or issued on exercise of options
There are no shares under option or issues on exercise of options during the year (2017: Nil).

-
all non-audit services have been reviewed and approved to ensure that they do not impact the integrity and objectivity of the auditor, and
-
none of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in Code of Conduct APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants issued by the Accounting Professional & Ethical Standards Board, including reviewing or auditing the auditor’s own work, acting in a management or decision-making capacity for the Company, acting as advocate for the Company or jointly sharing economic risks and rewards.

GLG Corp Ltd Notes to the financial report
2. Significant accounting policies (cont’d)
Fair value measurement
When an asset or liability, financial or non-financial, is measured at fair value for recognition or disclosure purposes, the fair value is based on 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; and assumes that the transaction will take place either: in the principal market; or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market
Fair value is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming they act in their economic best interests. For non-financial assets, the fair value measurement is based on its highest and best use. Valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, are used, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified, into three levels, using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. Classifications are reviewed at each reporting date and transfers between levels are determined based on a reassessment of the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
For recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements, external valuers may be used when internal expertise is either not available or when the valuation is deemed to be significant. External valuers are selected based on market knowledge and reputation. Where there is a significant change in fair value of an asset or liability from one period to another, an analysis is undertaken, which includes a verification of the major inputs applied in the latest valuation and a comparison, where applicable, with external sources of data.
Fair value hierarchy
The following details the consolidated entity's assets and liabilities, measured or disclosed at fair value, using a three level hierarchy, based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the entire fair value measurement, being:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly
Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value include:
-
Freehold and leasehold land and buildings - Level 3 – refer to Note 15 for further details
-
Investment properties - Level 3 – refer to Note 17 for further details

Adoption of new and revised Accounting Standards
In the current year, the Company has adopted all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (the AASB) that are relevant to its operations and effective for the current annual reporting period.
Standards and Interpretations issued not yet effective
At the date of authorisation of the financial report, a number of Standards and Interpretations were in issue but not yet effective.
| t yet effective. | ||
|---|---|---|
| Standard/Interpretation | Effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after |

| Accounting Standards – Effective date of AASB 15’ | ||
| AASB 16 Leases | 1 January 2019 | 30 June 2020 |
As at the date of the report management are quantifying the impact, if any, on the adoption of the above accounting standards. However, management do note that AASB 16 is expected to impact GLG as the operating leases entered into by the company will be brought onto the statement of financial position as a right to use asset and liability.
For AASB 9, GLG has evaluated the recoverability of receivables and determine collection and recoverability to be highly probable based on past interaction with the same GLGs and no changes to relationships with these GLGs is expected going forward. However, GLG are still in the process of evaluating the effects of the change with this standard.
With respect to the revenue disclosures for AASB15, GLG has adopted this standard from 1 July 2018. GLG has applied the principles of this standard to its business and concludes that the consolidated entity correctly recognises revenue at the time that the transfer of control of the custom-made goods to its customers. GLG has considered the effects of variable consideration such as settlement discounts and concluded that the impact of such discounts that reduce the revenue to be immaterial based on historical transactions. At the end of each reporting period, the impact will be assessed as such variable consideration may fluctuate. Revenue is recognized by GLG as and when control is passed at a certain point in time, rather than over-time. Control of the custom-made goods is defined for GLG as the ability of its customers to direct the use of and obtain the benefits from the goods delivered. GLG historically has experienced minimal returns from customers, hence no impact on accounting for returns within revenue is expected.

GLG Corp Ltd Notes to the financial report
2. Significant accounting policies (cont’d)
(a) Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the information and results of each subsidiary from the date on which the Company obtains control and until such time as the Company ceases to control such entity. Control is achieved when the company:
-
has power over the investee;
-
is exposed, or has the rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and
-
has the ability to use its power to affect its returns.
Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Company.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all intercompany balances and transactions, and unrealised profits arising within the consolidated entity are eliminated in full.
A list of subsidiaries appears in note 27 to the financial statements. Consistent accounting policies are employed in the preparation and presentation of the consolidated financial statements.
(b) Foreign currency
The individual financial statements of each GLG entity are presented in its functional currency being the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. For the purpose of the consolidated financial statements, the results and financial position of each entity are expressed in United States dollars, which is the functional currency of GLG Corp Ltd and the presentation currency for the consolidated financial statements. All subsidiaries of GLG Corp Ltd have functional currency of United States dollars.
In preparing the financial statements of the individual entities, transactions in currencies other than the entity’s functional currency are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing on the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the end of each reporting period.
Exchange differences are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise except that:
-
(i) exchange differences which relate to assets under construction for future productive use, which are included in the cost of those assets where they are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs on foreign currency borrowings;
-
(ii) exchange differences on transactions entered into in order to hedge certain foreign currency risks, there are no hedging activities undertaken in the current year; and
-
(iii) exchange differences on monetary items receivable from or payable to a foreign operation for which settlement is neither planned or likely to occur, which form part of the net investment in a foreign operation, and which are recognised in the foreign currency translation reserve and recognised in profit or loss on disposal of the net investment.
42
GLG Corp Ltd Notes to the financial report
2. Significant accounting policies (cont’d)
(c) Goods and services tax
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST), except:
(i) where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority, it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of an asset or as part of an item of expense; or (ii) for receivables and payables which are recognised inclusive of GST.
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables.
Cash flows are included in the cash flow statement on a gross basis. The GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is classified within operating cash flows.
- (d) Financial assets
Investments are recognised and derecognised on trade date where the purchase or sale of an investment is under a contract whose terms require delivery of the investment within the timeframe established by the market concerned, and are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs except for those financial assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss which are initially measured at fair value.
Subsequent to initial recognition, investments in subsidiaries are measured at cost less impairment, if any, in the Company’s financial statements. Subsequent to initial recognition, investments in associates are accounted for under the equity method in the consolidated financial statements and the cost method in the Company’s financial statements.
Other financial assets are classified into the following specified categories: financial assets ‘at fair value through profit or loss’, financial assets, and ‘loans and receivables’. The classification depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets and is determined at the time of initial recognition.
Effective interest method
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and of allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts (including all fees on points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial asset, or, where appropriate, a shorter period.
Interest income is recognised on an effective interest rate basis for debt instruments other than those financial assets ‘at fair value through profit or loss’.
Loans and receivables
Trade receivables, loans, and other receivables that have fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market are classified as ‘loans and receivables’. Loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method less impairment.

GLG Corp Ltd Notes to the financial report
2. Significant accounting policies (cont’d)
(d) Financial assets (cont’d)
Impairment of financial assets
Financial assets, other than those at fair value through profit or loss, are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been impacted.
The carrying amount of financial assets including uncollectible trade receivables is reduced by the impairment loss through the use of an allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognized through profit and loss.
For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of the impairment is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate.
Derecognition of financial assets
GLG derecognises a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another entity. If GLG neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership and continues to control the transferred asset, GLG recognises its retained interest in the asset and an associated liability for amounts it may have to pay. If GLG retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of a transferred financial asset, GLG continues to recognise the financial assets and also recognises collateralised borrowings for the proceeds received.
- (e) Impairment of tangible and intangible assets
At the end of each reporting period, GLG reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, GLG estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. When a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified, corporate assets are also allocated to individual cashgenerating units, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest GLG of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be identified.
Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and intangible assets not yet available for use are tested for impairment at least annually, and whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired.
Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.

(f) Employee benefits
Provision is made for benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave, long service leave, and sick leave when it is probable that settlement will be required and they are capable of being measured reliably.
Provisions made in respect of short term employee benefits are measured at their nominal values using the remuneration rate expected to apply at the time of settlement.
Provisions made in respect of long term employee benefits are measured as the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made by the consolidated entity in respect of services provided by employees up to reporting date.
Defined contribution plans
Contributions to defined contribution superannuation plans are expensed when employees have rendered service entitling them to the contributions.
(g) Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, and it is probable that the Company will be required to settle that obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows.
When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, the receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably.
(h) Financial instruments issued by the Company
Other financial liabilities
Other financial liabilities, including borrowings, are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs.
Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, with interest expense recognised on an effective yield basis.
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments through the expected life of the financial liability, or, where appropriate, a shorter period.
3. Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
In the application of GLG’s accounting policies, which are described in note 2, management is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstance, the results of which form the basis of making the judgments. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Impairment of receivables and impairment of goodwill are two key areas of estimates and judgements. Refer to Notes 11 and 18 for further details. Additionally, the estimates related to the revaluation of property plant and equipment and investment property are also key areas of estimates and judgements. Refer to Notes 15 and 17 for further details.

4. Segment information
Identification of reportable operating segments
The consolidated entity is organised into two operating segments: fabric and garments. These operating segments are based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Board of Directors in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources. There is no aggregation of operating segments and management do not review information by geographic segment nor do they review segment assets or liabilities
Revenues of US$57,375 thousand (2017: US$48,146 thousand), US$49,513 thousand (2017: US$48,736 thousand) and US$34,151 thousand (2017: US$31,151) are derived from three single customers of the Company. Each of these separate revenues amount to more than 10% of the Company’s revenues from external customers.
The directors’ review EBIT (earnings before interest and tax). The accounting policies adopted for internal reporting to the directors are consistent with those adopted in the financial statements.
The information reported to the directors is on at least a monthly basis.
Types of products and services
The principal products and services of each of these operating segments are as follows: Fabric the manufacture and wholesaling of fabric Garments the manufacturing and wholesaling of garments
Intersegment transactions
Intersegment transactions were made at market rates. The garment retailing operating segment purchases fabric from the fabric manufacturing operating segment. Intersegment transactions are eliminated on consolidation.

10. Income Taxes
Current tax is calculated by reference to the amount of income taxes payable or recoverable in respect of the taxable profit or tax loss for the period. It is calculated using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by reporting date. Current tax for current and prior periods is recognised as a liability (or asset) to the extent that it is unpaid (or refundable).
Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax base of those items. In principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences. However, deferred tax liabilities are not recognised if the temporary differences giving rise to them arise from the initial recognition of assets and liabilities (other than as a result of a business combination) which affects neither taxable income nor accounting profit. Furthermore, a deferred tax liability is not recognised in relation to taxable temporary differences arising from goodwill.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries, branches and interest in joint ventures except where the consolidated entity is able to control the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period(s) when the asset and liability giving rise to them are realised or settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by reporting date. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the consolidated entity expects, at the reporting date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Company/consolidated entity intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.
There were no franking credits for 2017 nor 2018.
Current and deferred tax for the period
Current and deferred tax is recognised as an expense or income in the Consolidated Statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, except when it relates to items credited or debited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also recognised directly in equity, in which case the current and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively. Where the current or deferred tax arises from the initial accounting for a business combination, the tax effect is included in the accounting for the business combination.

The average credit period on sales of goods and rendering of services is 75 days. No interest is charged on the trade receivables outstanding balance.
Before accepting any new customers, GLG uses an external scoring system to assess the potential customer’s credit quality and defines credit limits by customers. Limits and scoring attributed to customers are reviewed twice a year. 96% of the trade receivables that are neither past due nor impaired have the best credit scoring attributable under the external credit scoring system used by GLG.
Included in GLG’s trade receivable balance are debtors with a carrying amount of US$1,235 thousand (2017: US$325 thousand) which are past due at the reporting date. There has been no significant change in credit quality and all amounts are considered recoverable. GLG does not hold any collateral over these balances.

In determining the recoverability of trade receivables, GLG considers any change in the credit quality of the trade receivable from the date credit was initially granted up to the reporting date. Credit risk is concentrated with a few significant counterparties.
Provision for impairment of receivables – estimates and judgements
GLG assesses impairment at the end of each reporting period by evaluating the conditions and events specific to GLG that may be indicative of impairment triggers.
GLIT Holdings Pte Ltd (GLIT) and its operating subsidiaries provide outsourced manufacturing services to GLG Corp. GLG Corp provides working capital and fabric to GLIT as part of the arrangement. When fabric is acquired by GLIT, GLG Corp issues a letter of credit on their behalf. In order to maximize the discounts available, GLG Corp converts for GLIT the letter of credit it has issued into a Trust Receipt. The Bank will immediately pay the fabric supplier. Once GLIT invoices GLG Corp, a trade payable is recorded. GLG Corp has a legally enforceable right to offset the amount owed by GLIT and settle the balance, if any, with GLIT on a net basis. The offset takes place between 90 days to 120 days depending on the date of maturity of the Trust Receipt.
GLIT Holdings Pte Ltd and its subsidiaries that provide subcontracted manufacturing operations were disposed of by the Ghim Li Group in 2005 as part of a management buy out. GLIT continue to operate as GLG’s outsourced manufacturing partner.
The GLIT Receivables (collectively the receivables from GLIT Holdings and receivables from outsourced manufacturing suppliers) carrying value is estimated to be recoverable on the basis that GLIT continues to operate as our outsourced manufacturing partner dedicated to serve the day-to-day needs of GLG Corp. It is assumed that GLIT has sufficient resources, financial and otherwise to support the order fulfilment processes in the factories, with guidance and loadings from GLG Corp. The valuation of GLIT receivable is evaluated to be recoverable based on the assumption specifically on the accessibility of trust receipts available for offset and the amount of available collateral in place.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

15. Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment held for use in the production or supply of goods or services, or for administrative purposes, are carried in the Statement of financial position at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. Assets are pledged as security – refer further to Note 20.
Land and buildings are initially recognized at cost. Freehold land is subsequently carried at the revalued amount less accumulated impairment losses. Buildings and leasehold land are subsequently carried at the revalued amounts less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.
Depreciation is provided on property, plant and equipment, including freehold buildings. Depreciation is calculated on a straight line basis so as to write off the net cost or other revalued amount of each asset over its expected useful life to its estimated residual value. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the period of the lease or estimated useful life, whichever is the shorter, using the straight line method. The lease period is for 60years, ending 2050. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period. The following estimated useful lives are used in the calculation of depreciation
Building on freehold land 50 years Leasehold properties Over term of lease Plant and machinery 10 years Furniture, fittings and office equipment 3-10 years Motor vehicles 5-10 years
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value include:
-
Freehold and leasehold land and buildings - Level 3
-
Freehold and leasehold land and buildings of the Company were revalued on 30 June 2018 by One Asia Property Consultants (KL) Sdn. Bhd, an external, independent and registered valuer. The comparison method was adopted in arriving at the market value of the freehold and leasehold land and buildings. In estimating the fair value of the properties, the highest and best use of the properties is their current use. There has been no change to the valuation technique as compared with previous financial year and revaluations are done on an annual basis.
Freehold and leasehold land and buildings at valuation are categorised as Level 3 fair value, which has been generally derived using the sales comparison approach. Sales price of comparable properties in close proximity are adjusted for differences in key attributes such as property size. The most significant input to this valuation approach is price per square foot of comparable properties.

17. Investment property
The investment property is located at Lot 7962, Batu 22, Jalan Air Hitam, 81000 Kulai, Johor in Malaysia. It was revalued by One Asia Property Consultants (KL) Sdn. Bhd, an external, independent and registered valuer using the sales comparison method on 30 June 2018, and has been categorised as Level 3 fair value. Revaluations are done on an annual basis. Sales price of comparable properties in close proximity are adjusted for differences in key attributes such as property size. The most significant input to this valuation approach is price per square foot of comparable properties.
The investment property has include those portions of factory and office buildings that are held for longterm rental yields and/or for capital appreciation which are initially recognised at cost and subsequently carried at fair value.
The cost of major renovations and improvements is capitalised and the carrying amounts of the replaced components are recognised in profit or loss. The cost of maintenance, repairs and minor improvements is recognised in profit or loss when incurred.
On disposal of an investment property, the difference between the disposal proceeds and the carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss.
The following table sets out the valuation techniques used to measure fair value within Level 3, including details of the significant unobservable inputs used and the relationship between unobservable inputs and fair value. Changes in fair values are recognised in profit or loss.

Software
Computer software is stated as intangible assets in the statement of financial position and amortised on the straight line method over 3 years.
Goodwill – recognition and measurement
All business combinations are accounted for by applying the acquisition method. Goodwill represent the difference between the cost of the acquisition and the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired and has an indefinite useful life. After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is assessed as part of the Ghim Li Fashion (M) Sdn Bhd CGU. Goodwill is not amortised but is subject to impairment testing on an annual basis or whenever there is an indication of impairment.
Goodwill – estimates and judgements
GLG assesses impairment at the end of each reporting period by evaluating the conditions and events specific to GLG that may be indicative of impairment triggers. Recoverable amounts of relevant assets are reassessed using value-in-use calculations which incorporate various key assumptions within the CGU. The value in use is based on the cash flow projections for a period of two years. The cash flow projections are based on the FY2019 budget that has been approved by the board with estimated growth rates of 5% for FY2020 with a terminal growth rate of 2.5%. As part of the annual impairment test for goodwill, management assesses the reasonableness of growth rate assumptions by reviewing historical cash flow projections and future growth objectives.
The pre tax discount rate applied to these cash flow projections is 8.2%. The discount rate has been determined using the weighted average cost of capital which incorporates both the cost of debt and the cost of capital. The tax rate applied in the valuation model is based on the corporate tax rate in Malaysia of 24%.
There has been no impairment loss recognised in relation to goodwill.
Management believes that no reasonably possible change in any of the above key assumptions would cause the carrying value of the cash generating unit to materially exceed its recoverable amount.

26. Leases
Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
GLG as lessee
Assets held under finance leases are initially recognised at their fair value or, if lower, at amounts equal to the present value of the minimum lease payments, each determined at the inception of the lease. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the Statement of Financial Position as a finance lease obligation. Lease payments are apportioned between finance charges and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are charged directly against income.
Finance leased assets are amortised on a straight line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset.
Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, except where another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed.

GLG leases motor vehicles and office equipment under finance leases expiring from one to five years. All the leases involve lease payments of a fixed base amount. No contingent rentals were paid during the year (2017: nil)

GLG manages its capital to ensure that entities in GLG will be able to continue as a going concern while maximizing the return to stakeholders through the optimisation of the debt and equity balance. GLG’s overall strategy remains unchanged from 2017.

Operating cash flows are used to maintain and expand GLG’s assets, as well as to make the routine outflows of tax and repayment of maturing debt. GLG’s policy is to borrow centrally, using a variety of capital market issues and borrowing facilities, to meet anticipated funding requirements.

(c) Financial risk management objectives
GLG has not executed any derivatives in the current year, hence the policy listed below are for background information purpose only. If and when such derivatives are used in the future, the objectives is to use them in accordance with a board approved policy. The policy requires GLG co-ordinates access to domestic and international financial markets, and manages the financial risks relating to the operations of the consolidated entity.
GLG does not enter into or trade financial instruments, including derivative financial instruments, for speculative purposes. The use of financial derivatives is governed by the consolidated entity’s policies approved by the board of directors, which provide written principles on the use of financial derivatives.
GLG’s activities expose it primarily to the financial risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. GLG minimises its financial risk of changes in foreign currency exchange rate through the natural hedge of matching its revenues and purchases in US dollars and matching of its assets and liabilities in US dollars.
(d) Foreign currency risk management
GLG undertakes certain transactions denominated in foreign currencies, hence exposures to exchange rate fluctuations arise
The carrying amount of GLG’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities at the reporting date is as follows:
| Singapore dollars Hong Kong dollars Vietnamese Dong Malaysia Ringgit Australia Dollar |
Liabilities 2018 US$’000 2017 US$’000 181 645 - - 105 703 993 3,221 20 77 1,299 4,646 |

(e) Foreign currency sensitivity analysis
GLG is mainly exposed to movements in the value of Singapore dollars and Malaysia ringgits compared to the US dollar.
The following table details GLG’s sensitivity to a 10% increase and decrease in the United States dollar against the relevant foreign currencies. 10% is the sensitivity rate used when reporting foreign currency risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the possible change in foreign exchange rates. The sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items and adjusts their translation at the period end for a 10% change in foreign currency rates. The sensitivity analysis includes external loans as well as loans to foreign operations within GLG where the denomination of the loan is in a currency other than the currency of the lender or the borrower. A positive number indicates an increase in profit or loss where the United States dollars strengthens against the respective currency. For a weakening of the United States dollars against the respective currency there would be an equal and opposite impact on the profit, and the balances below would be negative.
| Malaysia Ringgit Impact Consolidated 2018 2017 US$’000 US$’000 (396) (411) |

(f) Interest rate risk management
GLG is exposed to interest rate risk as entities in GLG borrow funds at both fixed and floating interest rates. The risk is managed by GLG by maintaining an appropriate mix between fixed and floating rate borrowings. As no hedging activities undertaken in the current year and if such activities are to be considered in the future, they will be evaluated to align with interest rate views and define risk appetite; ensuring optimal hedging strategies are applied, by either positioning the Statement of financial position or protecting interest expense through different interest rate cycles.
GLG’s exposure to interest rates on financial assets and financial liabilities are detailed in the liquidity risk management section of this note.
Interest rate sensitivity analysis
The sensitivity analyses below have been determined based on the exposure to interest rates for both derivative and non-derivative instruments at the reporting date and the stipulated change taking place at the beginning of the financial year and held constant throughout the reporting period. A 50 basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the possible change in interest rates.
At reporting date, if interest rates had been 50 basis points higher or lower and all other variables were held constant, GLG’s:
Net profit would increase by US$106thousand and decrease by US$96 thousand (2017: increase by US$77 thousand and decrease by US$70 thousand). This is mainly attributable to GLG’s exposure to interest rates on its variable rate borrowings

(g) Credit risk management
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to GLG. The Company deals with creditworthy counterparties by reviewing the exposure and credit-ratings of its counterparties to mitigate the risk of financial loss from defaults. Credit exposure is continuously monitored by the payment behaviors of counterparties in relation to the financial strength.
Trade accounts receivable consist of a number of retail customers located in the United States of America. Ongoing credit evaluation is performed on the financial condition of accounts and, where appropriate, trading within the credit limits or discounting of receivables on non-recourse basis with credit acceptance or insurance in place.
The consolidated entity does not have any significant credit risk exposure to any single counterparty or any GLG of counterparties having similar characteristics except to the GLIT receivable as disclosed in Note 11. The credit risk on liquid funds and derivative financial instruments is limited because the counterparties are banks with high credit-ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies. There were no derivatives in the current year.
The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the financial statements, net of any allowances for losses, represents the consolidated entity’s maximum exposure to credit risk without taking account of the value of any collateral obtained.
The consolidated entity also faces risks of orders cancellation. This is related to fabric, accessories and manufacturing cost incurred on orders cancelled prior to shipment. The consolidated entity is now exploring credit insurance to cover this risk as well.
(h) Liquidity risk management
The consolidated entity manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves, banking facilities and reserve borrowing facilities by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities. Included in note 28(b) is a listing of additional undrawn facilities that GLG has at its disposal to further reduce liquidity risk.
As business competition dictates, GLG has by choice given extended payment terms to certain core customers with high-volume impact during the current year. Although such practice increases the liquidity risk and cash flow requirement, it is also considered to be an essential element of market penetration and customer retention. The resulting cash flow impact is evaluated with the support of undrawn banking facilities that GLG has arranged to support such business growth.

Business Combinations Recognition and Measurement
Business combinations occur where an acquirer obtains control over one or more businesses.
A business combination is accounted for by applying the acquisition method, unless it is a combination involving entities or business under common control. The business combination will be accounted for from the date that control is obtained, whereby the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities (including contingent liabilities) assumed is recognized (subject to certain limited exemptions). The excess of consideration over the fair value of net assets acquired is represented by goodwill.
All transaction costs incurred in relation to business combinations, other than those associated with the issue of a financial instrument, are recognised as expenses in profit or loss when incurred. The acquisition of a business may result in the recognition of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase.

36. Subsequent events
On 28 June 2018, Ghim Li International (S) Pte Ltd, a fully-owned subsidiary of GLG Corp Ltd, has entered into an agreement with Ghim Li (Cambodia) Pte Ltd and its parent company, GLIT Holdings Pte Ltd to acquire some specific assets in the latter’s garment manufacturing factory in Cambodia. The assets to be acquired consist of machinery and equipment, some other fixed assets and intangible assets such as trade name and customer network, employee database and records.
Ghim Li International (S) Pte Ltd plans to establish a garment manufacturing factory in Cambodia with a new legal entity in Cambodia, which will then be assigned to own and manage these assets acquired from the sellers. The rationale of this acquisition is to allow Ghim Li International (S) Pte Ltd to set up its own garment manufacturing factory in Cambodia to supplement its current garment manufacturing investment in Vietnam and Malaysia.
The completion of this acquisition is subject to the fulfilment of certain conditions, namely (a) the securing of Board approvals for GLIS, GLIT Holdings and Ghim Li Cambodia respectively, (b) obtaining regulatory and statutory approvals in Singapore and Cambodia and (c) the establishment of the legal entity by GLIS in Cambodia. Management expects all of these conditions to be met after 30 June 2018, hence this acquisition transaction is mentioned here as a subsequent balance sheet event. The receivables owed by GLIT to GLG Corp will be reduced by the same amount of the purchase consideration for the specific assets upon completion of this transaction, by way of set-off.
