Dear Shareholders,It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to yet another year of excellent performance at Crew B.O.S. The continued strengthand momentum of our business is reflected in our financial results as our revenues soared new heights. With a sharply focusedresolve, the Company embarked on large-scale business plans and passionately pursued a multiple strategic growth path tostrengthen every sphere of the business.

Industry overview

As I write this letter to you, one of the major concerns expressed is the competitiveness of the export industry due to theweakening of the U.S. currency. At Crew B.O.S. we believe that addressing this dynamic external factor is as much as a partof our business and we accept this challenge in the right spirit and will devote the right energies and attention to manage itwell.

As they often say every cloud has a silver lining, so while the industry was wondering, how it would cope with this newchallenge against a "China" that has more contents to its business, came some good news that will help us to get greater attentionfrom buyers whose honeymoon a rather long one with China is ending. The Leather industry in China is being challenged by newlaws and policies that will erode its competitiveness.

A combination of a moving Yuan (about 4 per cent) , reduction of subsidies ( about 7 per cent to 10 per cent), increasing dutieson leather, increasing wages and a shortage of skilled work force puts more opportunity at IndiaÊs door without the peer pressurenormally associated with competing with „China‰.

This development is truly a brilliant opportunity which the Indian leather industry has to grab to perform the role of a reliablesupplier. Crew B.O.S. by the prudent use of resources has done exactly that and today has world class infrastructure to acceptand explore this opportunity. Increasingly, the better customers are recognizing this change and progress at „Crew B.O.S‰. AndI believe a new era has begun that will take your Company to new heights.

Financial & business review

The CompanyÊs net income rose from Rs 1314.69 mn to Rs 1847.26 mn while profitability grew by 43 per cent. Bags and beltscontinue to be the major revenue earners and accounted for more than 55 per cent of the total revenues. We are happy toreport a growth of nearly 85 per cent in the footwear segment while the finishing unit which commenced a full year ofoperations in this fiscal, recorded revenues of Rs 225 mn. The ability to manufacture „Italian‰ quality leather provided theCompanyÊs prestigious international brand of customers yet another compelling reason to select Crew B.O.S. as their trustedpartner in success. The superior leather finishing abilities also coincided perfectly with the prevailing trend of clean and classiclooks for leather fashion accessories segment in 2006-07.

To pursue higher growth opportunities, promote higher operational efficiency and profitability, Crew B.O.S. has taken a consciousdecision to develop each of the CompanyÊs six core product streams into distinct strategic business units. In this direction, oneof the important measures to enable the management and various business-heads get a 360-degree view of the businessoperations has been the installing of a powerful ERP system. The key developments across each of our business units; is discussedseparately in the pages following this communiqué, I briefly touch upon here.

Footwear segment

We at Crew B.O.S. believe that this segment is poised to rapidly change and expect to see a huge transformation over thenext few years. On one hand, leading international brands are looking at India for their sourcing while on the other thedevelopments in the domestic market present tremendous opportunities to build and create a special brand.

Shoe Division South

Gauging this, Crew B.O.S. is approaching this new era of opportunities where global leather and lifestyle product manufacturersmove base to India, with a clear plan and strategies. We have joined hands as 51: 49 JV with Leather Crafts (India) Pvt. Ltd(LCIL), a respected Chennai-based leather exporting house servicing the renowned American brand, „Hush Puppies‰.Crew B.O.S. brings to the collaborative venture strong in house design capabilities and quality consciousness associated withservicing large branded customers. Crew B.O.S. will be providing designing inputs for nearly 50 per cent of this prestigious orderwhich entails designing closed shoes for men and women.

To cater to such voluminous demand, Crew B.O.S. has decided to ramp up its manufacturing capacities. Crew B.O.S. has purchased 6 acres of land at Mahindra World City Developers Ltd., SEZ at Chennai where the Company will be setting upa new plant to produce 10,000 pairs of full shoes per day by mid 2009. The setting of this plant will take the CompanyÊsmanufacturing prowess to a whole new scale and place in a leadership position in the industry as this will be amongst the biggestplants in India.

Shoe Division North

Our shoe unit at Mansard has a current installed capacity of producing 1800 pairs of full shoes per day. Looking at theopportunities, Crew B.O.S. is planning to enhance the existing capacity to produce 5,000 pairs of full shoes per day by 2009.This plant will be focused on servicing existing as well as some new clients producing thereby mid and premium segment shoes.

City of Excellence at Neemrana

The footwear infrastructure in India is fairly evolved but the country still lack some truly „best-in-class‰ component manufacturingcapabilities. To evolve such a facility, Crew B.O.S. has acquired 30 acres of land at Neemrana in the state of Rajasthan. CrewB.O.S. will be identifying world class sole, hardware, leather, manufacturing companies around the world and bring theirmanufacturing technologies through business ventures / associations (with these companies) to India.

This new manufacturing base combined with international grade manufacturing technologies will provide top reputed internationalbrands yet another compelling reason to approach Crew B.O.S. for a one stop solution for all their leather manufacturing needs.This unique combination of services will create the „stickiness‰ with the top customers thus easing the entry barriers leading tothe creation of an organization that is strong in manufacturing and equally strong in servicing.

Retail foray

A revolution is brewing in the Indian retail space and almost every industry major is investing into retail ventures tempted by theincreased disposable income of the spending public in our country. In this space, designing, manufacturing and servicing form thecore essentials and Crew B.O.S with its very talented team is in the perfect place to launch its own „brand‰ of products in thedomestic market. The Company has in place strategic marketing plans to drive this venture and launch two brands from theCrew B.O.S. banner ÂTEMPESTAÊ and ÂCREW REPUBLICAÊ towards the last quarter of this year. With right retail strategies andour international grade of designing, manufacturing and quality consciousness, we are confident of meeting customers acceptancein the domestic market and in years to come will be grow these brands internationally. As Crew B.O.S. stands at critical junctionin this business segment, I am confident with our sharply focused business planning and execution capabilities, the success in theretail segment will take the Crew B.O.S. banner to great heights.

Crew BOS Academy

One of the important developments during the year, which I would like to touch on, is the setting up of the Crew B.O.S.Academy in October 2006. This Academy has been formed with the aim to be the source to recruit and build a trained,efficient and talented pool of committed workers across all our divisions. In order to uplift the skill levels to a global standard,the Crew B.O.S. Academy has hired highly experienced technical trainers from Romania and Italy. Apart from being technicallysound, these trainers bring with them a work discipline which when imbibed in the new trained workforce will result in greateroperational efficiencies and reduce wastage of material and man-hours.

The Academy will also retrain old workers to improve and update their skills. In the future, the Academy aims to increase itscapacity to train workers in the field of leather products manufacturing and be a one-point source for well trained persons tothe leather industry in India.

Reengineering exercise

While Crew B.O.S. uses world class machinery and production technology, being an inherently labour-intensive industry, theCompany constantly looks at ways and means to improvise production and operational efficiencies to ensure that the vital cost-efficiency edge is always maintained. As a step in this direction, Crew B.O.S has embarked upon a scientific industrial reengineeringexercise supported by strong HR policies to strengthen our peopleÊs competencies, match the right skills to the right job andmaintain a high-performance ethics.

The industrial engineering cell established in the belt unit assisted the Company in „process stream mapping‰ and setting up of„production efficiency‰ targets. By customizing an ERP program, we were able to capture real-time data that has helped us providemeaningful management information for maintaining productivity, quality and cost control. Along with this, through constantengineering training Crew B.O.S. has been able to effectively reduce changeover time, to be more responsive to customer needsand identify wasted time by analyzing our current routine.

We also have been able to transform hard-to-define organizational concepts into a practical management agenda that has helpedus to focus on avoiding the pervasive pitfalls that often limit team performance. Crew B.O.S, through mature continuousimprovement programs has motivated its workforce to support and maintain improvement strategies. By using predictive andpreventive maintenance techniques, Crew B.O.S. has been able to end to crisis maintenance.

We are happy to report that Crew B.O.S. has achieved tremendous success in the reengineering exercise carried out first in thebelt division. As the core management team has successfully gone through the learning curve in our belt unit and workers havewholeheartedly accepted these initiatives and marked the positive differences, we are confident of undertaking similar reengineeringexercises across all our divisions at a much faster pace in the forthcoming year.

HR initiatives

As the Company climbs the volume and value curve, Crew B.O.S. has in place a highly well-experienced and professional qualifiedmanagement team at the helm to ensure it is a smooth and unhindered march. However, expanding this team, attracting andretaining the right management team and employees are critical. Crew B.O.S. is in the process of formulating and implementingattractive reward and retention schemes for them such as Employees Stock Option Schemes (ESOPs), performance linkedincentives, loyalty bonuses, etc. which will help Crew B.O.S. to attract and retain the best talent across the industry around theworld.

Commitment to quality Quality is the backbone of our commitment to customers. And no matter where Crew B.O.S. travels in its future journey andhowever, fast we grow, cost-competitiveness and quality will always remain the bedrock of all that we do. To further enhance,the CompanyÊs quality control process, we have set up a full-fledged 28-member quality control team employing senior personnelwith rich-hands on experience in the leather industry. The CompanyÊs comprehensive commitment to quality in architecting anagile organization is vindicated by it being awarded the prestigious ISO 9001:2000 certification.

Social Compliances

As the Corporate India marches ahead, it is increasingly been accepted that we as responsible citizens need to participate inthe all round welfare and development of the society.

SYNOPSIS OF THE INDUSTRY

The fashion design industry has always been extremelycompetitive, but with globalization, ever expanding mediaoutlets and conforming social pressure, fashion design hasbecome even more cut-throat in recent years.

Fashion design is largely regarded as extremely glamorous andexciting, and as a result, India has been sole and a chiefexporter for providing ethnic designs and accessories in globalfashion market. Although India continues to be globallyacknowledged as a country for its rich textile heritage, thefashion industry still faces infrastructural and businesschallenges. Crew B.O.S substantiates its growth and maintainsits position as a leading manufacturer through its enormousabilitities, skills and talents.

The leather industry's exports stood at $3.1 billion in 2006-07against $ 2.7 billion in 2005-06. Reports suggest that theprospective plans are developed to increase the exports to thetune of US$ 7 billion by 2010-11 and as per estimates aboutRs. 7,300 Crores would be required in the form of investmentsin the next five to six years. The USA, UK, Italy, Germany,France, Spain, Netherlands, Australia, Denmark are the majormarkets for Indian Leather goods accounting for a share of75% in India's total leather goods export.

FUTURE PROSPECTS

VISIONS AND INTIMIDATION

The opportunities far outweigh the threats in this fast growingindustry. The developed world is facing its own intricacy inthe manufacturing sector and the decline of the shoe makingindustry in Italy is imminent. China, though a major competitor,is slowly losing its edge due to the Western World Customersfinding it very hard to do business because of the lack ofadequate protection of Intellectual property rights and languageissues. The initiatives taken by Council of Leather Exports ofIndia to grow this Industry and incentives provided for theleather Industry is helping us to be more competitive. Nichemanufactures all over the world are looking more towards Indiathan China to produce top end luxury brands due similarity inideologies.

Though high volume low value business is still controlled byChina and Vietnam, your company is intentionally moving outof this segment and concentrating on high end products whichprovide greater contribution and statistics show that thissegment is continuously growing in the fast growing luxurygoods. Technology advancement and innovation have alwaysbeen the key areas of focus for the company to overcomepossible threats. Your company keeps abreast with the dynamicfashion industry by employing a vibrant team of extremelytalented designers who keep themselves updated with the latestin fashion, which gives us a clear edge over our competitors.

RISK AND CONCERNS

Leather being a natural product requires great skill sets for itsprocurement. No two leather hides are identical and leather isall touch and feel. To get the correct skill set could be achallenge but your company has launched a Crew B.O.S.Academy which has a faculty of International and Nationaltrainers who impart training to carefully selected students whoare after completing successful training are absorbed by thecompany. Change in fashion trends is an additionalindispensable concern associated with the industry.

Foreign Exchange exposure is an integral part of our businessand we along with the assistance of reputed consultants takereasonable measures to mitigate our risks.

We have audited the financial statements of Crew B.O.S. Far

East Limited (the "company") set out on pages 105 to 106, which

comprise the company balance sheets as at 31 December 2006,

and the income statement, the statement of changes in equity

and the cash flow statement for the period then ended, and a

summary of significant accounting policies and other

explanatory notes.

Directors' responsibility for the financial statements

The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation

and the true and fair presentation of these financial statements

in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards

issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants

and the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance. This responsibility

includes designing, implementing and maintaining internal

control relevant to the preparation and the true and fair

presentation of financial statements that are free from material

misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; selecting and

applying appropriate accounting policies; and making

accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances.

Auditors' responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial

statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in

accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing issued by

the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants. Those

standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and

plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance as to

whether the financial statements are free from material

misstatement.

Auditor's

Report

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit

evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial

statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's

judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material

misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud

or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers

internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and true and

fair presentation of the financial statements 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 entity's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating

the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the

reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors,

as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial

statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient

and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the financial statements give a true and fair view

of the state of the company's affairs as at 31 December 2006

and of its profit and cash flows for the year then ended in

accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards and

have been properly prepared in accordance with the Hong Kong

1. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Basis of preparation

The significant accounting policies that have been usedin the preparation of these financial statements aresummarised below.

The financial statements have been prepared on thehistorical cost basis except for the revaluation of certainproperties and certain financial assets and liabilities.The measurement bases are fully described in theaccounting policies below.

It should be noted that accounting estimates andassumptions are used in preparation of the financialstatements. Although these estimates are based onmanagement's best knowledge of current events andactions, actual results may ultimately differ from thoseestimates.

(b) Revenue recognition

Sales of goods are recognised upon transfer of risk tothe customer and collectibility of the relatedreceivables is reasonably assured.

(c) Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost lessaccumulated depreciation. The cost of an assetcomprises its purchase price and any directlyattributable costs of bringing the assets to its workingcondition and location for its intended use.Expenditure incurred after the fixed assets have beenput into operation, such as repairs and maintenance,is normally charged to the profit and loss account inthe year in which it is incurred. In situations where itcan be clearly demonstrated that the expenditure hasresulted in an increase in the future economic benefitsexpected to be obtained from the use of the machinery,equipment and motor vehicle, the expenditure iscapitalised as an additional cost thereof.

Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line basis towrite off the cost of each asset over its estimated usefullife. The principal annual rates used for this purposeare as follows:

Office equipment 20%

Computer equipment 33.33%

(d) Foreign currencies

Foreign currency transactions are recorded at theapplicable rates of exchange ruling at the transactiondates. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated inforeign currencies at the balance sheet date aretranslated at the applicable rates of exchange ruling atthat date. Exchange differences are dealt with in theprofit and loss account.

(e) Impairment

At each balance sheet date, the company reviews thecarrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assetsto determine whether there is an indication that thoseassets have suffered any impairment loss. If the

Notes to the Financial Statements

for the year ended 31 December, 2006

recoverable amount of an assets is estimated to be lessthan its carrying amount, the carrying amount of theasset is reduced to its recoverable amount. Impairmentlosses are recognised as an expense immediately,unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amountunder another accounting standard, in which case theimpairment loss is treated as a revaluation decreaseunder that accounting standard.

(f) Stocks

Stocks are valued on the first-in, first-out basis, at thelower of cost and net realisable value, after makingdue allowance for any obsolete or slow-moving items.In the case of finished goods and work in progress,cost includes direct materials, direct labour and anappropriate proportion of manufacturing overheads.Net realisable value is determined by reference toestimated selling prices less all further costs tocompletion and costs to be incurred in selling anddistribution.

(g) Deferred taxation

Pursuant to the HKAS 12, deferred taxation is providedin full, using the liability method, for all temporarydifferences arising between the tax bases of assets andliabilities and their carrying values in the accounts.Deferred tax liabilities are provided in full on all taxabletemporary differences while deferred tax assets arerecognised to the extent that it is probable that futuretaxable profits will be available against which thedeductible temporary difference can be utilised.

(h) Cash equivalents

Cash equivalents represent short term highly liquidinvestments which are readily convertible into knownamounts of cash and which are within three months ofmaturity when acquired, less advances from banksrepayable within three months from the date of theadvance.

The valuation of the items of the financial statements has beenmade on a prudent and accrual basis.

Due to the application of the principle of prudence the elementsof the single items of assets or liabilities have been valuedindividually, in order to avoid compensation between lossesthat should have been acknowledged and income that shouldnot be acknowledged as it has not been realised.

In compliance with the principle of accounting on an accrualbasis, the effects of transactions and other events have beenrecorded in the accounts and attributed to the period saidtransactions and events refer to, and not to the one the relatingmovements are actually performed (collections and payments).

Continuity in the application of methods of allocation over aperiod of time in fact represents a necessary element for thepurposes of the comparability of a company's FinancialStatements over different financial periods.
