Item 3. Legal Proceeding

To the best of the knowledge of Management, the Company is not aware of: (a) any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which they are incumbent directors or

senior officers, was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of bankruptcy or within two (2) years prior to that time;

(b) any conviction by final judgment in criminal proceeding, domestic or foreign, pending against any

of the incumbent directors or officers; (c) any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court

competent jurisdiction, domestic or foreign, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting the involvement of any of the incumbent directors or executive officers in any type of business, securities, commodities or banking activities; and,

(d) any finding by or domestic or foreign court competent jurisdiction (in civil action), the SEC or

comparable foreign body, or domestic or foreign exchange or electronic marketplace or said regulatory organization, that any of the incumbent directors or executive officers has violated a securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended or vacated which may have a material effect in the operation and deter, bar or impede the fulfillment of his/her duties as a director or executive of the Company.

The Company, PH Ventures, Inc. (“PHVI”) and Mr. Martin P. Lorenzo, in his capacity as President of the two companies, were named defendants in a civil case filed in October 2002 by Kenmor Corporation (Kenmor) and Emmanuel B. Moran, Jr. (the joint venture partner of PHVI in Kenmor) for the collection of sum of money and damages in the aggregate amount of PHP 9,820,701.82. The plaintiffs alleged, among others, that PHVI did not put in its required capital contribution in Kenmor. The Pancake House – Libis outlet, which is owned and operated by Kenmor, closed down in June 2002 due to its lack of financial performance. On January 31, 2008, a complaint was filed by FILSCAP (Filipino Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers, Inc.) against Dencio’s Food Specialist, Inc. for failure to pay music royalties amounting to PHP485,140 for the Year 2007 and 2008. The case was turned over to PECABAR Law Offices for due process. Management and its legal counsel believe that no provision needs to be made in the accounts since the case above are projected to be ruled in favor of the Company and its materiality is not yet determinable and it is impracticable to make a reliable estimate.

ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Pancake House, Inc. focuses on reliability and stability for the year 2008. With the expected decrease in consumer spending coupled with challenging business climate as a result of the current worldwide economic slowdown, the Company successfully upheld the continuous increase in EBITDA and Consolidated Revenues. Despite the contraction in business activity, PHI continued to sustain the upward trend of its EBITDA with an increase of 8.5% to P290.7 million (P252.4 million attributable to equity holders of the Parent) from P267.9 million (P234.2 million attributable to equity holders of the Parent) in 2007. Consolidated revenues increased by 15.2% to P1,855.8 million this year from P1,610.9 million last year. Restaurant sales of P1,356.2 million increased by 14.4% from last year’s P1,185.4 million. The increase in revenues was a result of the Company’s disciplined expansion program through the opening of new company-owned outlets and purchase of performing franchised–owned locations. Furthermore, the outlets from the recently acquired subsidiary Boulangerie Francaise, Inc., operating the “Le Coeur de France” brand contributed to the revenue upswing. Meanwhile, commissary sales rose by 22.2% to P409 million from P334.8 million in 2007; while franchise income remained the same at P91 million for both the years 2008 and 2007. On the other hand, while cost saving measures had been challenging in an ever rising operating cost environment, the Company managed to maintain its Cost of Sales at 40.6% this year with a slight increase of only 0.4% from last year’s 39.6% of revenues. Furthermore, Labor efficiency increased resulting to a lower Cost of Labor at 13.8% from last year’s 16.2% of revenues. The Company maintained a healthy Income from Operations which remained the same for the last 2 years at 6% of revenues. The Group’s consolidated net income for the year 2008 at P50.2 million (P45.7 million attributable to equity holders of the Parent) decreased by 20.8% from P63.39 million (P63.4 million attributable to equity holders of the Parent) due to the interest from short-term loans incurred to acquire the ‘Le Coeur de France” brand. Although the Company initially planned to raise equity or secure a long term facility to finance the acquisition, the economic condition in 2008 delayed such fund raising activity. Furthermore, the Company’s compliance with the current tax rates and laws caused the reversals of Deferred Tax Assets resulted to non-cash accounting entries which affected the bottom line financial performance.

24

Developments in 2008 Going global. Included in the continuing strategies of the Pancake House Group is to bring its brands to the mainstream international market. The Group identified Malaysia as its gateway into the Asian consumer market to initially introduce the brand “Pancake House International”. Through its international affiliate, Pancake House, International Malaysia Sdn Bhd (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pancake House International, Inc.), it now currently operates 2 outlets in Malaysia serving menu items that cater specifically to the Malaysian taste profile while upholding the brand’s vision of quality product and service that guarantees a distinct gratifying and delightful dining experience. Acquisition of Le Coeur de France. On February 8, 2008, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding and issued capital stock of Boulangerie Francaise, Inc. (“BFI”), the exclusive franchisee of the Le Coeur de France brand name and system-wide restaurant operations in the Philippines. Inclusive in PHI’s acquisition is BFI’s operating assets, including 13 company-owned outlets and one commissary. On the same date, Pancake House International, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company established as the vehicle for its international franchising business, purchased the trademark “Le Coeur de France” and all of its related intellectual property rights from the trademark owner, Baratow Limited, a British Virgin Island company. Innovation. The Pancake House Group recently developed an upscale Filipino brand “Kabisera” to address the market’s need for higher-end Filipino restaurants. This is to further complement the popular bar and grill concept under the group called “Dencio’s” as an alternative despite both brands catering to the same market segment. The restaurant features new menu items developed by popular and well established chefs and such dishes consequently carry the chef’s identities. Merger between PHI and DFSI On July 26, 2007, the Securities and Exchange Commission approved the merger between Pancake House, Inc. (PHI) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Dencios Food Specialists, Inc. (DFSI). Under the Plan of Merger, DFSI shall be merged into PHI, and DFSI’s corporate existence shall cease by operation of law upon the effective Date of Merger which shall be August 1, 2007 with PHI as the surviving company. The merger was accounted for similar to a pooling of interests and accordingly, all financial data of PHI for the periods prior to the merger have been restated to include the results of DFSI. Also, the results of operations for the period ended September 30, 2008 are reported as though PHI and DFSI had been combined as of the beginning of the period. On March 28, 2008, the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) approved the application for a “tax free merger” within the meaning of Sections 40(C)(2)(a) and (b) and 40(6)(b) of the 1997 Tax Code, as amended. Consequently, no gain or loss was recognized by DFSI, as the transferor, on the transfer of all its assets and liabilities to the Company pursuant to the Plan of Merger. Likewise, no gain or loss was recognized by PHI, as the transferee, on its receipt of the assets and liabilities of DFSI without issuing stocks in exchange therefore. Steady Growth. The Group had a total of 163 outlets as of December 31, 2008 and 138 outlets as of December 31, 2007, broken down as follows:

The Group continues to monitor closely its costs structures given the increasing costs of raw materials and supplies, rental and utility rates, and government-mandated wage hikes. Management continues to implement programs that optimize the use of the Group’s resources as well as generate savings. These include expanded synergies among the seven brands, strategic purchasing, and more efficient manning. These programs are supported by regular quality assurance and financial audits to check strict adherence to established costs and product and service quality standards.

o Combined restaurant and commissary costs of sales ratio for Pancake House operations increased to 44.7% this year from 41.7% last year, brought about by higher costs of raw materials in the current year. Meanwhile, due to better yields, the commissary’s cost of sales ratio increased only slightly despite increases in purchase costs of raw materials. Combined restaurant and commissary cost ratio of Teriyaki Boy operations slightly went down from 36.4% in 2007 to 35.7% this year. Continuous improvements in production yields have translated into lower cost ratios during the current year.

o Cost of labor slightly decreased during the year due to more efficient manning. Teriyaki Boy’s cost of labor ratio improved significantly to 14.7% this year from 17.9% last year to while Singkit’s ratio went up to 30.1% this year from 18.6% last year due to lower sales.

Financial Condition As of December 31, 2008, consolidated assets amounted to P1.42 billion, up from P1.29 billion as of December 31, 2007. Consolidated liabilities also increased from P622.3 million as of December 31, 2007 to P731.2 million as of December 3, 2008. Total stockholders’ equity stood at P691.96 million as of December 31, 2008 up from P663.82 million as of December 31, 2007. The increase in consolidated assets and liabilities was brought about mainly by the acquisition of Le Coeur de France and its trademark and recognition of goodwill on the purchase of 100% of BFI’s shares as well as setting up of new company-owned and joint-venture outlets, which were partly financed by borrowings, while the increase in stockholder’s equity arose from earnings during the current year and additional capital contribution of minority interest in joint venture companies, reduced by the cash dividend paid during the year. Liquidity Position As of December 31, 2008, the Group had cash and cash equivalents totaling P147.2 million, increased from the December 31, 2007 balance of P113.59 million. The Group’s current ratio decreased from 0.75:1.00 as of December 31, 2007 to 0.53:1.00 as of December 31, 2008. Total debt to asset ratio and total debt to equity ratio went up from 0.48:1.00 and 0.94:1.00, respectively, as of December 31, 2007 to 0.51:1.00 and 1.06:1.00, respectively, as of December 31, 2008. The Group’s liquidity position improved considerably starting the fourth quarter of 2008 when company-owned outlets that were opened within the year started to bring in cash flows.

31

In order to further improve the liquidity position of the Group, PHI obtained from Metrobank-Trust Banking Group on March 30, 2007, a new three-year term loan amounting to P150 million and terminated the existing loan with a remaining balance of P105 million. The new loan, which bears a fixed interest rate of 7.25% per annum, carries a bullet principal payment at the end of the term. The other loans, which are short-term, are currently being paid out of internally generated funds and are projected to be fully paid within the next nine months. The Group’s current ratio deteriorated due to the reclassification of the above-mentioned long term loan availed to current as well as additional availment of short-term loan to finance the acquisition of Le Coeur de France and its trademark. The Company was unable to meet its required current ratio of at least 1:1. On January 20, 2009, the Company was able to secure a waiver from the bank, waiving the said covenant and granting the Company until September 30, 2009 to comply with the requirements. The Group projects that future net cash flows (from the operations of new and existing outlets and the four Commissaries) will be sufficient to finance further restaurant and commissary expansions and to meet principal amortization and interest payments on its loans. It is also projected that some amounts may be made available for yearly dividend declaration. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION FOR 2007 Results of Operations Consolidated revenues increased by P230 million or 16.7% from P1.38 billion last year to P1.61 billion in the current year. Combined restaurant and commissary sales grew by 17.4% while franchise revenues (continuing royalty and franchise fees) increased by 5.8%.

o Total revenues from Pancake House operations during the current year amounted to P980 million, up by P86 million from P893 million last year. The growth was brought about mainly by new outlets opened during the year.

o Teriyaki Boy generated year-to-date revenues of P619 million in the current year, posting a significant increase of 28% from last year’s P482 million. The significant increase resulted from the opening of new outlets during the year.

o Singkit’s revenues significantly increased by 165% compared to last year due to increased store sales of company owned outlets and franchise income received from its first franchisee.

The Group continues to monitor closely its costs structures given the increasing costs of raw materials and supplies, rental and utility rates, and government-mandated wage hikes. Management continues to implement programs that optimize the use of the Group’s resources as well as generate savings. These include expanded synergies among the five brands, strategic purchasing, and more efficient manning. These programs are supported by regular quality assurance and financial audits to check strict adherence to established costs and product and service quality standards.

o Combined restaurant and commissary costs of sales ratio for Pancake House operations went down to 41.7% this year from 43.7% last year, brought about by better cost of sales ratio of restaurant operations. Meanwhile, due to better yields, the commissary’s cost of sales ratio increased only slightly despite increases in purchase costs of raw materials. Combined restaurant and commissary cost ratio of Teriyaki Boy operations improved to 36.4% this year from 39.9% in 2006. Continuous improvements in production yields have translated into lower cost ratios during the current year.

o Cost of labor slightly increased during the year as a result of government-mandated wage increases implemented during the year and opening of new outlets during the year.

o Consolidated operating expenses for the year went increased to P439 million from P363 million

in 2006 as a result of the group’s expansion plans or opening of new outlets during the year.

32

o Consolidated sales and marketing expenses amounted to P49 million, 9% higher than last year’s

P45 million.

o Consolidated administrative expenses for the current year were at 11.1% of gross revenues, slightly higher than the previous year’s level of 10.2%, mainly due to increase in salaries and benefits and depreciation and amortization pertaining to new outlets that opened during the year.

Consolidated other charges exceeded other income for the current year, resulting in a net Other Charges of P14 million, lower than the P29 million net Other Charges recorded during the previous year. The decrease can be attributed to higher miscellaneous income and decrease in interest expense on bank loans, net of increase in interest expense on the debt component of the convertible notes. The Group posted an impressive performance during the year with a net income of P63 million (amount attributable to equity holders of the Parent), up 58% from last year’s P40 million. Consolidated EBITDA (amount attributable to equity holders of the Parent) significantly improved by 24.7% from P188 million in 2006 to P234 million for the current year.

o Net income for the year from combined Pancake House and Dencio’s divisions increased to P60 million this year from 27.3 million last year. EBITDA improved by 27% to P177 million this year from P140 million in 2006.

o Teriyaki Boy contributed a net income of P11.9 million, lower than last year’s P15 million. EBITDA increased by 13.8% to P58 million in 2007 from P51 million in 2006.

35

Long-term Debt The Parent Company obtained peso denominated long-term loan from Metropolitan Bank & Trust Company (Metrobank) to finance the acquisition of DFSI. The loan, which bears interest at the MART1 as of the date of availment (15.01%) due quarterly, is payable as follows: P45, 000,000 each July 23, 2006 and 2007; and P60, 000,000 on July 23, 2008. Due to the lower interest rates prevailing in 2006, PHI negotiated with Metrobank for a conversion of the interest from fixed to a floating rate. Starting June 23, 2006, the interest rate was converted to a floating rate, subject to quarterly re-pricing. As of December 31, 2006, the interest rate was at 10% per annum. On March 30, 2007, the Company availed of a 150 million peso-denominated three year term loan from Metrobank. Proceeds were used to repay the existing long term loan with Metrobank. The loan, which bears a fixed interest rate of 7.25% per annum, carries a bullet principal payment at the end of the term. The agreement provides for a pre-termination without penalty at the end of the second year and a mandatory prepayment if Martin I.P. Lorenzo is replaced as Chairman, President or Chief Executive Officer of the Company and either he ceases to own and control at least 51% of the outstanding capital stock of PHHI or PHHI ceases to directly or indirectly own and control at least 50% of the outstanding capital stock of the Company. The loan is collateralized by a chattel mortgage of owned assets of DFSI and a pledge of all present and future stocks of DFSI. Under the loan agreement, the Company is required, among others, to:

o Maintain a current ratio of at least 1:1 on the second year that the loan is outstanding o Maintain a debt to equity ratio not greater than 2:1 o Promptly give written notice to the bank of any change in the composition of its Board of

Directors, in so far as it arises out of a change in its ownership; and o Promptly inform the bank of any exercise of options granted to third persons over pledged

shares. The loan agreement also contains a number of negative covenants that, among others, subject to certain exceptions and qualifications, restrict the Company’s ability to take certain actions without the bank’s approval, including changing the nature of its business, permitting any material change in the ownership or control of its capital stock, declaring or paying dividends to its stockholders, if payment of any sum due the bank hereunder is in arrears, granting loans or advances to any of its directors, officers, and/or stockholders, which in the aggregate would exceed about P12.0 million a year, creating any debt or availment of additional loan(s) with final maturity exceeding one year. The Company was unable to maintain a current ratio of at least 1:1 in 2008. On January 20, 2009, the Company was able to secure a waiver from the bank, waiving the said covenant and granting the Company until September 30, 2009 to comply with the requirements. Mortgage Payable Mortgage payable decreased by P2.01 million due to payments made during the year ended December 31, 2008. Convertible Notes The convertible notes issued to Aureos Southeast Asia Managers Limited and Planters Bank Venture Capital Corporation has both a debt component and an equity component. The debt component is the present value of the future cash flows of interest payments as determined in reference to the

36

consolidated forecasted net income from issuance date up to the time that the notes are mandatorily converted into equity. (See Notes to Financial Statements) The difference between the issue price of the notes and the liability component was recognized as the equity component of the note. Accrued Retirement Liability Increase in accrued retirement liability of P1.9 million represents additional provision for retirement benefits for Group employees for the year ended December 31, 2008. As of December 31, 2008, only PHI and TBGI had a funded retirement fund. Accrued Rentals Accrued rentals represent accrued rent pertaining to non-cancelable lease on new and additional outlets. Minority Interest Minority interest represents the equity contribution and long-term advances made by the minority partners in TBGI and the partners in the joint venture companies established by PHI and TBGI.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT The Stockholders and the Board of Directors Pancake House, Inc. We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Pancake House, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the Group), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the consolidated statements of income, consolidated statements of changes in equity and consolidated statements of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2008, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with Philippine Financial Reporting Standards. This responsibility includes: designing, implementing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation 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 audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with Philippine Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

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 Group’s preparation 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 Group’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, 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.

PANCAKE HOUSE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. Corporate Information

Pancake House, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated and is domiciled in the Republic of the Philippines whose shares are publicly traded. The Company and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Group”) are primarily engaged in the business of catering foods and establishing, operating and maintaining restaurants, coffee shops, refreshments parlors and cocktail lounges. The registered office address of the Company is Pancake House Center, 2259 Pasong Tamo Extension, Makati City. The ultimate parent of the Group is Pancake House Holdings, Inc.

On July 26, 2007, the Philippine Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved the merger of Dencio’s Foods Specialists, Inc. (DFSI) and the Company, with the latter as the surviving entity, effective August 1, 2007. DFSI is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Consequently, by operation of law, the separate corporate existence of DFSI ceased as provided under the Corporation Code. Thus, upon implementation of the merger, all outstanding shares of capital stock of DFSI were cancelled. On March 28, 2007, the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) approved the application for a “tax free merger” within the meaning of Sections 40(C)(2)(a) and (b) and 40(6)(b) of the 1997 Tax Code, as amended. Consequently, no gain or loss was recognized by DFSI, as the transferor, on the transfer of all its assets and liabilities to the Company pursuant to the Plan of Merger. Likewise, no gain or loss was recognized by the Company, as the transferee, on its receipt of the assets and liabilities of DFSI without issuing stocks in exchange therefore.

The consolidated financial statements of the Group as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2008, were authorized for issue in accordance with a resolution by the Board of Directors (BOD) on March 30, 2009.

2. Basis of Preparation and Consolidation, Statement of Compliance and Summary of

Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Preparation The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared under the historical cost basis. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Philippine peso, which is the Group’s functional and presentation currency under the Philippine Financial Reporting Standards (PFRS). All values are rounded to the nearest peso, except when otherwise indicated. Basis of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Group as of December 31 of each year. The consolidated financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting year as the Group, using uniform accounting policies.

*SGVMC401862*

Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from its activities and generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one half of the voting rights. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Group controls another entity. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date of acquisition, being the date on which control is transferred to the Group and continue to be consolidated until the date that such control ceases. Consolidated financial statements are prepared using uniform accounting policies for like transactions and other events in similar circumstances. All intra-group balances, transactions, income and expenses and profits and losses resulting from intra-group transactions that are recognized in assets, are eliminated in full. Minority interests represent the portion of net results and net assets of PHI not held by the Group. They are presented in the consolidated balance sheet within equity, apart from equity attributable to equity holders of the parent and are separately disclosed in the consolidated statement of income. Minority interests consist of the amount of those interests at the date of original business combination and the minority interests’ share on changes in equity since the date of the business combination. Losses applicable to the minority in excess of the minority’s interest in PHI’s equity are allocated against the interests of the Group, except to the extent that the minority has a binding obligation and is able to make an additional investment to cover its share of those losses. Acquisitions of minority interests are accounted for using the parent-entity extension method, whereby, the difference between the consideration and the book value of the share of the net assets acquired is recognized as goodwill. The excess of the Group’s interest in the net fair value of the identifiable net assets over cost of acquisition is credited to the consolidated statement of income in the period of the acquisition. Statement of Compliance The consolidated financial statements, which are prepared for submission to the Philippine SEC have been prepared in compliance with PFRS as adopted by the Philippine SEC. PFRS includes statements named Philippine Accounting Standards (PAS) and interpretations issued by the Philippine Accounting Standards Council. Changes in Accounting Policies and Disclosures The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year except for the adoption of the following Philippine Interpretations, which became effective on January 1, 2008, and amendments to an existing standard, which became effective on July 1, 2008. Adoption of these changes in PFRS did not have any significant effect to the Group:

• Philippine Interpretation IFRIC 11, PFRS 2 - Group and Treasury Share Transactions • Philippine Interpretation IFRIC 12, Service Concession Arrangements • Philippine Interpretation IFRIC 14, PAS 19, The Limit on a Defined Benefit Asset,

Minimum Funding Requirement and their Interaction • Amendments to PAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and

PFRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosures - Reclassification of Financial Assets

*SGVMC401862*

New Accounting Standards, Interpretations, and Amendments to Existing Standards Effective Subsequent to December 31, 2008 The Group will adopt the following standards and interpretations enumerated below when these become effective. Except as otherwise indicated, the Group does not expect the adoption of these new and amended PFRS and Philippine Interpretations to have significant impact on the consolidated financial statements. The relevant disclosures will be included in the notes to the consolidated financial statements when these become effective. Effective in 2009

Amendments to PFRS 1, First-time Adoption of Philippine Financial Reporting Standards - Cost of an Investment in a Subsidiary, Jointly Controlled Entity or Associate The amended PFRS 1 allows an entity, in its separate financial statements, to determine the cost of investments in subsidiaries, jointly controlled entities or associates (in its opening PFRS financial statements) as one of the following amounts: a) cost determined in accordance with PAS 27; b) at the fair value of the investment at the date of transition to PFRS, determined in accordance with PAS 39; or c) previous carrying amount (as determined under generally accepted accounting principles) of the investment at the date of transition to PFRS. PFRS 2, Share-based Payment - Vesting Condition and Cancellations The standard has been revised to clarify the definition of a vesting condition and prescribes the treatment for an award that is effectively cancelled. It defines a vesting condition as a condition that includes an explicit or implicit requirement to provide services. It further requires non-vesting conditions to be treated in a similar fashion to market conditions. Failure to satisfy a non-vesting condition that is within the control of either the entity or the counterparty is accounted for as cancellation. However, failure to satisfy a non-vesting condition that is beyond the control of either party does not give rise to a cancellation. PFRS 8, Operating Segments PFRS 8 will replace PAS 14, Segment Reporting, and adopts a full management approach to identifying, measuring and disclosing the results of an entity’s operating segments. The information reported would be that which management uses internally for evaluating the performance of operating segments and allocating resources to those segments. Such information may be different from that reported in the consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statement of income and the Group will provide explanations and reconciliations of the differences. This standard is only applicable to an entity that has debt or equity instruments that are traded in a public market or that files (or is in the process of filing) its financial statements with a securities commission or similar party. The Group will assess the impact of this standard to their current manner of reporting segment information. Amendments to PAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements These amendments introduce a new statement of comprehensive income that combines all items of income and expenses recognized in the profit or loss together with ‘other comprehensive income. Entities may choose to present all items in one statement, or to present two linked statements, a separate statement of income and a statement of comprehensive income. These amendments also prescribe additional requirements in the presentation of the consolidated balance sheet and consolidated owner’s equity as well as additional disclosures to be included in the consolidated financial statements.

- 4 -

*SGVMC401862*

Amendments to PAS 23, Borrowing Costs The standard has been revised to require capitalization of borrowing costs when such costs relate to a qualifying asset. A qualifying asset is an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale. In accordance with the transitional requirements in the standard, the Group will adopt this as a prospective change. Accordingly, borrowing costs will be capitalized on qualifying assets with a commencement date after January 1, 2009. No changes will be made for borrowing costs incurred to this date that have been expensed. Amendments to PAS 27, Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements - Cost of an Investment in a Subsidiary, Jointly Controlled Entity or Associate These amendments prescribe changes in respect of the holding companies’ separate financial statements including (a) the deletion of ‘cost method’, making the distinction between pre- and post-acquisition profits no longer required; and (b) in cases of reorganizations where a new parent is inserted above an existing parent of the group (subject to meeting specific requirements), the cost of the subsidiary is the previous carrying amount of its share of equity items in the subsidiary rather than its fair value. All dividends will be recognized in profit or loss. However, the payment of such dividends requires the entity to consider whether there is an indicator of impairment. The Group expects significant changes in their accounting policies when they adopt the foregoing accounting changes effective January 1, 2009. Amendments to PAS 32, Financial Instruments: Presentation and PAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements - Puttable Financial Instruments and Obligations Arising on Liquidation These amendments specify, among others, that puttable financial instruments will be classified as equity if they have all of the following specified features: (a) The instrument entitles the holder to require the entity to repurchase or redeem the instrument (either on an ongoing basis or on liquidation) for a pro rata share of the entity’s net assets; (b) The instrument is in the most subordinate class of instruments, with no priority over other claims to the assets of the entity on liquidation; (c) All instruments in the subordinate class have identical features; (d) The instrument does not include any contractual obligation to pay cash or financial assets other than the holder’s right to a pro rata share of the entity’s net assets; and (e) The total expected cash flows attributable to the instrument over its life are based substantially on the profit or loss, a change in recognized net assets, or a change in the fair value of the recognized and unrecognized net assets of the entity over the life of the instrument. Philippine Interpretation IFRIC 13, Customer Loyalty Programmes This Interpretation requires customer loyalty award credits to be accounted for as a separate component of the sales transaction in which they are granted and therefore part of the fair value of the consideration received is allocated to the award credits and realized in income over the period that the award credits are redeemed or expire. Philippine Interpretation IFRIC 16, Hedges of a Net Investment in a Foreign Operation This Interpretation provides guidance on identifying foreign currency risks that qualify for hedge accounting in the hedge of net investment; where within the group the hedging instrument can be held in the hedge of a net investment; and how an entity should determine the amount of foreign currency gains or losses, relating to both the net investment and the hedging instrument, to be recycled on disposal of the net investment.

*SGVMC401862*

Improvements to PFRSs In May 2008, the International Accounting Standards Board issued its first omnibus of amendments to certain standards, primarily with a view to removing inconsistencies and clarifying wording. These are separate transitional provisions for each standard. PFRS 5, Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations When a subsidiary is held for sale, all of its assets and liabilities will be classified as held for sale under PFRS 5, even when the entity retains a non-controlling interest in the subsidiary after the sale. PAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements Assets and liabilities classified as held for trading are not automatically classified as current in the consolidated balance sheet. PAS 16, Property, Plant and Equipment - Recoverable amount The amendment replaces the term ‘net selling price’ with ‘fair value less costs to sell’, to be consistent with PFRS 5, Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations and PAS 36, Impairment of Asset.

- Sale of assets held for rental Items of property, plant and equipment held for rental that are routinely sold in the ordinary course of business after rental, are transferred to inventory when rental ceases and they are held for sale. Proceeds of such sales are subsequently shown as revenue. Cash payments on initial recognition of such items, the cash receipts from rents and subsequent sales are all shown as cash flows from operating activities. PAS 19, Employee Benefits - Curtailments and negative past service costs Revises the definition of ‘past service costs’ to include reductions in benefits related to past services (‘negative past service costs’) and to exclude reductions in benefits related to future services that arise from plan amendments. Amendments to plans that result in a reduction in benefits related to future services are accounted for as a curtailment. - Plan administration costs Revises the definition of ‘return on plan assets’ to exclude plan administration costs if they have already been included in the actuarial assumptions used to measure the defined benefit obligation. - Replacement of term “Fall due” Revises the definition of ‘short-term’ and ‘other long-term’ employee benefits to focus on the point in time at which the liability is due to be settled.

- Guidance on contingent liabilities Deletes the reference to the recognition of contingent liabilities to ensure consistency with PAS 37, Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets.

- 6 -

*SGVMC401862*

PAS 20, Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosures of Government Assistance - Government loans with no interest in a below-market interest rate Loans granted with no or low interest rates will not be exempt from the requirement to impute interest. The difference between the amount received and the discounted amount is accounted for as a government grant.

PAS 23, Borrowing Costs - Components of borrowing costs Revises the definition of borrowing costs to consolidate the types of items that are considered components of ‘borrowing costs’, i.e., components of the interest expense calculated using the effective interest rate method. PAS 27, Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements Measurement of a subsidiary held for sale in a separate financial statement. When a parent entity accounts for a subsidiary as fair value in its financial statements, this treatment continues when the subsidiary is subsequently classified as held for sale. PAS 28, Investment in Associates - Required disclosures when investment in associates are accounted for at fair value through profit and loss (FVPL) If an associate is accounted for at fair value in accordance with PAS 39, only the requirement of PAS 28 to disclose the nature and extent of any significant restrictions on the ability of the associate to transfer funds to the entity in the form of cash or repayment of loans will apply. - Impairment of investment in associates An investment in an associate is a single asset for the purpose of conducting the impairment test. Therefore, any impairment test is not separately allocated to the goodwill included in the investment balance. PAS 29, Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies - Description of measurement basis in financial statements Revises the reference to the exception that assets and liabilities should be measured at historical cost, such that it notes property, plant and equipment as being an example, rather than implying that it is a definitive list. PAS 31, Interest in Joint ventures - Required disclosure when investment in jointly controlled entities are accounted for at FVPL If a joint venture is accounted for at fair value, in accordance with PAS 39, only the requirements of PAS 31 to disclose the commitments of the venturer and the joint venture, as well as summary financial information about the assets, liabilities, income and expense will apply. PAS 36, Impairment of Assets - Disclosure of estimates used to determine recoverable amount When discounted cash flows are used to estimate ‘fair value less cost to sell’, additional disclosure is required about the discount rate, consistent with disclosures required when the discounted cash flows are used to estimate ‘value in use’.

- 7 -

PAS 38, Intangible Assets - Advertising and promotional activities Expenditure on advertising and promotional activities is recognized as an expense when the Group either has the right to access the goods or has received the services. Advertising and promotional activities now specifically include mail order catalogues. - Units of production method of amortization Deletes references to there being rarely, if ever, persuasive evidence to support an amortization method for finite life intangible assets that results in a lower amount of accumulated amortization than under the straight-line method, thereby effectively allowing the use of the unit of production method.

PAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement - Reclassification of derivatives into or out of the classification of at FVPL Changes in circumstances relating to derivatives - specifically derivatives designated or de-designated as hedging instruments after initial recognition - are not reclassifications. When financial assets are reclassified as a result of an insurance company changing its accounting policy in accordance with paragraph 45 of PFRS 4, Insurance Contracts, this is a change in circumstance, not a reclassification. - Designation and documentation of hedges at the segment level Removes the reference to a ‘segment’ when determining whether an instrument qualifies as a hedge. - Applicable effective interest rate on cessation of fair value hedge accounting Requires use of the revised effective interest rate (rather than the original effective interest rate) when re-measuring a debt instrument on the cessation of fair value hedge accounting. PAS 40, Investment Properties - Property under construction or development for future use as an investment property Revises the scope (and the scope of PAS 16, Property, Plant and Equipment) to include property that is being constructed or developed for future use as an investment property. Where an entity is unable to determine the fair value of an investment property under construction, but expects to be able to determine its fair value on completion, the investment under construction will be measured at cost until such time as fair value can be determined or construction is complete. PAS 41, Agriculture - Discount rate on fair value calculations Removes the reference to the use of a pre-tax discount rate to determine fair value, thereby allowing use of either a pre-tax or post-tax discount rate depending on the valuation methodology used. - Additional biological transformation Removes the prohibition to take into account cash flows resulting from any additional transformations when estimating fair value. Instead, cash flows that are expected to be generated in the ‘most relevant market’ are taken into account.

Effective in 2010 Revised PFRS 3, Business Combinations and PAS 27, Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements The revised PFRS 3 introduces a number of changes in the accounting for business combinations that will impact the amount of goodwill recognized, the reported results in the period that an acquisition occurs, and future reported results. The revised PAS 27 requires, among others, that (a) change in ownership interests of a subsidiary (that do not result in loss of control) will be accounted for as an equity transaction and will have no impact on goodwill nor will it give rise to a gain or loss; (b) losses incurred by the subsidiary will be allocated between the controlling and non-controlling interests (previously referred to as ‘minority interests’); even if the losses exceed the non-controlling equity investment in the subsidiary; and (c) on loss of control of a subsidiary, any retained interest will be remeasured to fair value and this will impact the gain or loss recognized on disposal. The changes introduced by the revised PFRS 3 and PAS 27 must be applied prospectively and will affect future acquisitions and transactions with non-controlling interests. Philippine Interpretation IFRIC 17, Distributions of Non-cash Assets to Owners This Interpretation covers accounting for all non-reciprocal distribution of non-cash assets to owners. It provides guidance on when to recognize a liability, how to measure it and the associated assets, and when to derecognize the asset and liability and the consequences of doing so. Philippine Interpretation IFRIC 18, Transfers of Assets from Customers This Interpretation applies to the accounting for transfers of items of property, plant and equipment by an entity that receive such transfers from its customer, wherein the entity must then use such transferred asset either to connect the customer to a network or to provide the customer with ongoing access to a supply of goods or services, or to do both. Amendment to PAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement - Eligible Hedged Items Amendment to PAS 39 will be effective on July 1, 2009, which addresses only the designation of a one-sided risk in a hedged item, and the designation of inflation as a hedged risk or portion in particular situations. The amendment clarifies that an entity is permitted to designate a portion of the fair value changes or cash flow variability of a financial instrument as a hedged item. Effective in 2012 Philippine Interpretation IFRIC 15, Agreement for Construction of Real Estate This Interpretation covers accounting for revenue and associated expenses by entities that undertake the construction of real estate directly or through subcontractors. This Interpretation requires that revenue on construction of real estate be recognized only upon completion, except when such contract qualifies as construction contract to be accounted for under PAS 11, Construction Contracts, or involves rendering of services in which case revenue is recognized based on stage of completion. Contracts involving provision of services with the construction materials and where the risks and reward of ownership are transferred to the buyer on a continuous basis, will also be accounted for based on stage of completion.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Business Combinations and Goodwill Business combinations are accounted for using the purchase method. This involves recognizing identifiable assets (including previously unrecognized intangible assets) and liabilities (including contingent liabilities but excluding future restructuring) of the acquired business at fair value. Goodwill is initially measured at cost being the excess of the cost of the business combination over the Group’s share in the net fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities. If the initial accounting for a business combination is determined only provisionally by the end of the period in which the combination is effected because either the fair values to be assigned to the acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities or contingent liabilities or the cost of the combination can be determined only provisionally, the acquirer shall account for the combination using those provisional values. The acquirer shall recognize any adjustments to those provisional values as a result of completing the initial accounting within twelve months of the acquisition date as follows: (i) the carrying amount of the identifiable asset, liability or contingent liability that is recognized or adjusted as a result of completing the initial accounting shall be calculated as if its fair value at the acquisition date had been recognized from that date; (ii) goodwill or any gain recognized shall be adjusted by an amount equal to the adjustment to the fair value at the acquisition date of the identifiable asset, liability or contingent liability being recognized or adjusted; and (iii) comparative information presented for the periods before the initial accounting for the combination is complete shall be presented as if the initial accounting has been completed from the acquisition date. Any excess of the Group’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over the cost of the business combination is recognized immediately in the consolidated statement of income.

After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the Group’s cash generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquiree are assigned to those units. Where goodwill forms part of a cash-generating unit and part of the operation within that unit is disposed of, the goodwill associated with the operation disposed of is included in the carrying amount of the operation when determining the gain or loss on disposal of the operation. Goodwill disposed of in this circumstance is measured based on the relative values of the operation disposed of and the portion of the cash-generating unit retained. When the Group acquires a business, embedded derivatives separated from the host contract by the acquiree are not reassessed on acquisition unless the business combination results in a change in the terms of the contract that significantly modifies the cash flows that would otherwise be required under the contract. When subsidiaries are sold, the difference between the selling price and the net assets plus cumulative translation differences and goodwill is recognized in the consolidated statements of income.

Financial Instruments - Initial Recognition and Subsequent Measurement Date of recognition The Group recognizes a financial asset or a financial liability in the consolidated balance sheet when it becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. In the case of a regular way purchase or sale of financial assets, recognition and derecognition, as applicable is done using settlement date accounting. Initial recognition Financial assets and liabilities are recognized initially at fair value, which is the fair value of the consideration given (in case of an asset) or received (in case of a liability). The initial measurement of financial instruments, except for those designated at fair value through profit and loss (FVPL), includes transaction cost.

The Group classifies its financial assets into the following categories: financial assets at FVPL, held-to-maturity (HTM) investments, available-for-sale (AFS) investments, and loans and receivables. The Group classifies its financial liabilities into financial liabilities at FVPL and other financial liabilities. The classification depends on the purpose for which the investments are acquired and whether they are quoted in an active market. Management determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition and, where allowed and appropriate, re-evaluates such designation at every reporting date.

Financial instruments are classified as liabilities or equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement. Interest, dividends, gains and losses relating to a financial instrument or a component that is a financial liability are reported as expense or income. Distributions to holders of financial instruments classified as equity are charged directly to equity net of any related income tax benefits. The Group has no financial assets and liabilities at FVPL, HTM investments and AFS investments as of December 31, 2008 and 2007. Determination of fair value The fair values of financial instruments that are actively traded in organized financial markets is determined by reference to quoted market bid or ask prices at the close of business on the balance sheet date, without any deductions for transaction costs. When current bid and asking prices are not available, the price of the most recent transactions 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 investments and all other financial instruments where there is no active market, fair value is determined using valuation techniques. Such techniques include using arm’s length market transactions; reference to the current market value of another instrument, which are substantially the same; discounted cash flow analysis and other valuation models. Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are not entered into with the intention of immediate or short-term resale and are not classified as financial assets held for trading, designated as AFS investments or designated at FVPL. This accounting policy relates to the consolidated balance sheet caption “Trade and other receivables,” which arise primarily from sale of goods and services.

- 11 -

*SGVMC401862*

Trade and other receivables are recognized initially at fair value, which normally pertains to the billable amount. After initial measurement, trade and other receivables are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method, less allowance for impairment losses. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees that are an integral part of the effective interest rate. The amortization, if any, is reported as interest income. The losses arising from impairment of trade and other receivables are reported as provision for impairment losses. The level of allowance for impairment losses is evaluated by management on the basis of factors that affect the collectibility of accounts. Other financial liabilities Issued financial instruments or their components, which are not designated at FVPL are classified as other financial liabilities, where the substance of the contractual arrangement results in the Group having an obligation either to deliver cash or another financial asset to the holder, or to satisfy the obligation other than by the exchange of a fixed amount of cash or another financial asset for a fixed number of its own equity shares. The components of issued financial instruments that contain both liability and equity elements are accounted for separately, with the equity component being assigned the residual amount after deducting from the instrument as a whole the amount separately determined as the fair value of the liability component on the date of issue. After initial measurement, other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on the issue and fees that are an integral part of the effective interest rate. Any effects of restatement of foreign currency-denominated liabilities are recognized in the consolidated statement of income. This accounting policy applies primarily to the Group’s trade and other payables, loans payable, long-term debt, debt component of convertible and mortgage payable. “Day 1” profit or loss Where the transaction price in a non-active market is different from the fair value from other observable current market transactions in the same instrument or based on a valuation technique whose variables include only data from observable market, the Group recognizes the difference between the transaction price and fair value (a “Day 1” profit or loss) in the statement of income unless it qualifies for recognition as some other type of asset. In cases where use is made of data that is not observable, the difference between the transaction price and model value is recognized in the consolidated statement of income only when the inputs become observable or when the instrument is derecognized. For each transaction, the Group determines the appropriate method of recognizing the “Day 1” profit or loss amount. Embedded derivatives An embedded derivative is separated from the host contract and accounted for as derivative if all the following conditions are met:

§ the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative are not closely related to the economic characteristic of the host contract;

§ a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the definition of the derivative; and

§ the hybrid or combined instrument is not recognized at FVPL.

- 12 -

*SGVMC401862*

Separated embedded derivatives are classified as financial assets or financial liabilities at FVPL unless they are designated as effective hedging instruments. Derivative instruments are initially recognized at fair value on the date in which a derivative transaction is entered into or bifurcated, and are subsequently re-measured at fair value. Derivatives are carried as assets when the fair value is positive and as liabilities when the fair value is negative. Consequently, gains and losses from changes in fair value of these derivatives are recognized immediately in the consolidated statement of income. The Group assesses whether embedded derivatives are required to be separated from host contracts when the Group first becomes party to the contract. Reassessment only occurs if there is a change in the terms of the contract that significantly modifies the cash flows that would otherwise be required. As of December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Group has no bifurcated embedded derivatives. Derecognition of Financial Assets and Liabilities Financial asset A financial asset (or, where applicable a part of a financial asset or part of a group of financial assets) is derecognized where: § the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired; § the Group 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 Group has transferred its rights 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 the risk and rewards of the asset but has transferred the control of the asset.

Where the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset and has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset nor transferred control of the asset, the asset is recognized to the extent of the Group’s continuing involvement in the asset. Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the Group could be required to repay. Where continuing involvement takes the form of a written and/or purchased option (including a cash-settled option or similar provision) on the transferred asset, the extent of the Group’s continuing involvement is the amount of the transferred asset that the Group may repurchase, except that in the case of a written put option (including a cash-settled option or similar provision) on an asset measured at fair value, the extent of the Group’s continuing involvement is limited to the lower of the fair value of the transferred asset and the option exercise price. Financial liability A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged, or cancelled or has expired.

- 13 -

*SGVMC401862*

Where an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in the consolidated statement of income. Impairment of Financial Assets Carried at Amortized Cost The Group assesses at each balance sheet date whether a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on financial assets carried at amortized cost (e.g., receivables) has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. Time value is generally not considered when the effect of discounting is not material. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through use of an allowance account. The amount of the loss shall be recognized in the consolidated statement of income. The Group first assesses whether there is objective evidence of impairment exists individually for financial assets that are individually significant, and individually or collectively for financial assets that are not individually significant. The factors in determining whether objective evidence of impairment exists include, but are not limited to, the length of the Group’s relationship with debtors, their payment behavior and known market factors. Evidence of impairment may also include indications that the borrowers are experiencing significant difficulty, default and delinquency in payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy, or other financial reorganization and where observable data indicate that there is measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows, such as changes in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults. If it is determined that no objective evidence of impairment exists for an individually assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, the asset is included in a group of financial assets is collectively assessed for impairment. Assets that are individually assessed for impairment and for which an impairment loss is or continues to be recognized are not included in a collective assessment of impairment. If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed. Any subsequent reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in the consolidated statement of income, to the extent that the carrying value of the asset does not exceed its amortized cost at the reversal date.

With respect to receivables, the Group maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts at a level considered adequate to provide for potential uncollectible receivables. The level of this allowance is evaluated by management on the basis of factors that affect the collectibility of the accounts. A review of the age and status of receivables, designed to identify accounts to be provided with allowance, is performed regularly. The financial assets, together with the associated allowance accounts, are written off when there is no realistic prospect of future recovery and all collateral has been realized.

*SGVMC401862*

Convertible Notes The component of the convertible notes that exhibits characteristics of a liability is recognized as a liability in the consolidated balance sheet, net of transaction costs. On issuance of the convertible notes, the fair value of the liability component is determined using a market rate for an equivalent nonconvertible bond; and this amount is carried as a liability at amortized cost. The remainder of the proceeds is allocated to the conversion option that is recognized and included in equity, net of transaction costs. The carrying amount of the conversion option is not remeasured in subsequent years.

Transaction costs are apportioned between the liability and equity components of the convertible notes based on the allocation of proceeds to the liability and equity components when the instruments are first recognized. Offsetting of Financial Instruments Financial assets and liabilities are only offset and the net amount reported in the consolidated balance sheet when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and the Group intends to either settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and the liability simultaneously. Cash Cash consists of cash on hand and with banks. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined using the weighted average method, and net realizable value. Net realizable value (NRV) of food and beverage is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. NRV of store and kitchen supplies and operating equipment for sales is the current replacement cost. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are carried at cost, excluding the cost of day-to-day servicing, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment in value. Such cost includes the cost of replacing part of such property and equipment when that cost is incurred if the recognition criteria are met. The initial cost of property and equipment comprises its purchase price and any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to its working condition and location for its intended use. When each major inspection is performed, its cost is recognized in the carrying amount of the item of property and equipment as a replacement if the recognition criteria are satisfied.

Each part of an item of property and equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the item is depreciated separately.

- 15 -

*SGVMC401862*

Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the improvements or term of the lease, whichever is shorter. The estimated useful lives of the assets follow:

Number of Category Years Store equipment 3-8 Office furniture, fixtures and equipment 3-5 Transportation equipment 3-5 Kitchen equipment 3-5

The estimated useful lives and depreciation and amortization methods are reviewed periodically to ensure that the periods and methods of depreciation and amortization are consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits from items of property and equipment.

Initial stocks of operating equipment consisting of chinaware, glassware, silverware and utensils

are amortized up to a period of one (1) year. Subsequent purchases are charged to operations as acquired.

An item of property and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic

benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the consolidated statement of income in the year the asset is derecognized.

Construction in-progress, included in property and equipment, is stated at cost. This includes cost of construction and other direct costs. Construction in-progress is not depreciated until such time as the relevant assets are completed and put into operational use. Goodwill Goodwill acquired in a business combination is initially measured at cost being the excess of the cost of the business combination over the Group’s interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities in the acquired entities. Following initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment, annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. For the purpose of impairment testing, any goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to each of the cash-generating units expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the Group are assigned to those units or groups of units.

Impairment is determined by assessing the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit, to which the goodwill relates. Where the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized. Where goodwill forms part of a cash-generating unit and part of the operation within that unit is disposed of, the goodwill associated with the operation disposed of is included in the carrying amount of the operation when

- 16 -

*SGVMC401862*

determining the gain or loss on disposal of the operation. Goodwill disposed of in such circumstance is measured on the basis of the relative values of the operation disposed of and the portion of the cash-generating unit retained. Trademarks Trademarks are measured on initial recognition at cost. The cost of trademarks acquired in business combinations is the fair value as of the date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, trademarks are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses. The Group assessed that trademarks have 20 years useful lives. The amortization period commences from the start of the Group’s operations. These assets are being amortized using the straight-line method. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the useful economic life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortization period and the amortization method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at each financial year-end. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset is accounted for by changing the amortization period or method, as appropriate, and treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortization expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognized in the consolidated statement of income in the expense category consistent with the function of the intangible asset. Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognized in the consolidated statement of income when the asset is derecognized. Intangible assets created within the business are not capitalized and expenditure is charged against profits in the year in which the expenditure is incurred. Impairment of Non-Financial Assets Property and Equipment At each balance sheet date, the Group assesses whether there is any indication that its non-financial assets may be impaired. When an indicator of impairment exists or when an annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group makes a formal estimate of recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or cash-generating unit’s fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets, in which case the recoverable amount is assessed as part of the cash-generating unit to which it belongs. Where the carrying amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset (or cash-generating unit) is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. 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 (or cash-generating unit). An impairment loss is charged to operations in the year in which it arises, unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is charged to the revaluation increment of the said asset.

- 17 -

*SGVMC401862*

An assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognized impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized. If that is the case, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation and amortization, had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognized in the consolidated statements of income unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase. After such a reversal, the depreciation and amortization expense is adjusted in future years to allocate the asset’s revised carrying amount, less any residual value, on a systematic basis over its remaining life.

Provisions Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Where the Group expects a provision to be reimbursed, the reimbursement is recognized as a separate asset but only when the receipt of the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the consolidated statement of income, net of any reimbursement.

Contingencies Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the consolidated financial statements. These are disclosed unless the possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote. Contingent assets are not recognized in the consolidated financial statements but disclosed when an inflow of economic benefits is probable. Capital Stock Common shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction from proceeds. The excess of proceeds from issuance of share over par value of share are credited to share premium. Where the Group purchases its own shares (treasury shares), the consideration paid including any directly 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 income tax effects, is included in equity.

*SGVMC401862*

Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the revenue can be reliably measured. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognized:

Restaurant sales Revenue is recognized when orders are served. Commissary sales Revenue is recognized upon delivery of goods. Franchise and royalty fees Revenue is recognized under the accrual basis in accordance with the terms of the franchise agreements (see Note 23). Fees charged for the use of continuing rights granted by the agreement, or other services provided during the period of the agreement, are recognized as revenue as the services are provided or as the rights are used. Interest income Revenue is recognized as the interest accrues using the effective interest rate method. Retirement Benefit Costs Retirement benefit costs are actuarially determined using the projected unit credit method. This method reflects services rendered by employees to the date of valuation and incorporates assumptions concerning employees’ projected salaries. Retirement costs include current service cost plus amortization of past service cost, experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions. Past service cost is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the average period until the benefits become vested. Actuarial gains and losses are recognized as income or expense when the net cumulative unrecognized actuarial gains and losses at the end of the previous reporting period exceeded 10% of the higher of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets at that date. These gains and losses are recognized over the expected average remaining working lives of the employees participating in the plan. The defined benefit liability is the aggregate of the present value of the defined benefit obligation and actuarial gains and losses not recognized reduced by past service cost not yet recognized and the fair value of plan assets out of which the obligations are to be settled directly. If such aggregate is negative, the asset is measured at the lower of such aggregate or the aggregate of cumulative unrecognized net actuarial losses and past service cost and the present value of any economic benefits available in the form of refunds from the plan or reductions in the future contributions to the plan.

Leases Determination of whether an arrangement contains a lease The determination of whether an arrangement is, or contains a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement and requires an assessment of whether the fulfillment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset. A reassessment is made after inception of the lease only if one of the following applies: (a) There is a change in contractual terms, other than a renewal or extension of the arrangement; (b) A renewal option is exercised or extension granted, unless that term of the renewal or

extension was initially included in the lease term; (c) There is a change in the determination of whether fulfillment is dependent on a specified

asset; or (d) There is a substantial change to the asset. Where a reassessment is made, lease accounting shall commence or cease from the date when the change in circumstances gave rise to the reassessment for scenarios (a), (c) or (d) above, and at the date of renewal or extension period for scenario (b). Operating leases Operating leases represent those leases under which substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the leased assets remain with the lessors. Noncancellable operating lease payments are recognized as expense in the consolidated statement of income on a straight-line basis. Borrowing Costs Borrowing costs are charged to expense as incurred. Income Taxes Current income tax Current income 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 income tax rates and income tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted as of the balance sheet date. Deferred income tax Deferred income tax is provided, using the balance sheet liability method, on all temporary differences at the balance sheet date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes. Deferred income tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred income tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, carryforward of unused tax credits and unused net operating loss carryover (NOLCO) to the extent that it is probable that sufficient future taxable profits will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and carryforward of unused tax credits and unused NOLCO can be utilized.

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and

reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient future taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilized. Unrecognized deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each balance sheet date and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that sufficient future taxable profits will allow the deferred income tax asset to be recovered.

- 20 -

*SGVMC401862*

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rate that is expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are offset, if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current income tax assets against current income tax liabilities and the deferred income taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.

Segment Reporting The Group’s operating businesses are organized and managed separately according to the nature of the product and services provided, with each segment representing a strategic business unit that offers different products and serves difference markets (see Note 28). Earnings Per Share (EPS) Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the net income attributable to the common equity holder of the parent by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period after giving retroactive effect to any stock dividends declared. Diluted EPS amounts are calculated by dividing the net profit attributable to common equity holders of the parent (after considering interest on the convertible notes) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year plus the weighted average number of ordinary shares that would be issued on the conversion of all the dilutive potential common shares into common shares. Events After the Balance Sheet Date Post year-end events that provide additional information about the Group’s position at the balance sheet date (adjusting events) are reflected in the consolidated financial statements. Post year-end events that are not adjusting events are disclosed in the notes to consolidated financial statements when material.

3. Significant Accounting Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions The preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements in compliance with PFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. The judgments, estimates and assumptions used in the accompanying consolidated financial statements are based upon management’s evaluation of relevant facts and circumstances as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from such estimates. The effects of any change in estimates are reflected in the consolidated financial statements as they become reasonably determinable.

Judgments, estimates and assumptions are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual outcome can differ from these estimates.

Judgments In the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies, management has made the following judgments, apart from those involving estimations, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements. Determination of functional currency Based on the economic substance of the underlying circumstances relevant to the Group, the functional currency of the Group has been determined to be the Philippine peso. The Philippine peso is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Group operates. It is the currency that mainly influences the revenues and expenses of the Group. Classification of financial instruments The Group exercises judgments in classifying a financial instrument, or its component parts, on initial recognition either as a financial asset, a financial liability or an equity instrument in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement and the definitions of a financial asset, a financial liability or an equity instrument. The substance of a financial instrument, rather than its legal form, governs its classification in the consolidated balance sheet. In addition, the Group classifies financial assets by evaluating, among others, whether the asset is quoted or not in an active market. Included in the evaluation on whether a financial asset is quoted in an active market is the determination on whether the quoted prices are readily and regularly available, and whether those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm’s length basis (see Note 27). Operating lease commitments - the Group as lessee The Group has entered into commercial property leases on its outlets and administrative office location. The Group has determined that these are operating leases since it does not bear substantially all the significant risks and rewards of ownership of these properties. Consolidation of entities The Company has determined that it has control with the companies stated in Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements eventhough the Company owns, directly and indirectly, less than 50% of the voting power of these companies because the Company has the ability to govern the financial and operating policies of these entities. Accordingly, these companies are consolidated to the Company. Estimates and Assumptions The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the consolidated balance sheet 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. Allowance for impairment losses on receivables The Group maintains allowances for impairment losses on trade and other receivables at a level considered adequate to provide for potential uncollectible receivables. The level of this allowance is evaluated by the Group on the basis of factors that affect the collectibility of the accounts. The Group ages its receivables, determines which specific accounts are outstanding for more than 60 days (credit term, 30 days, plus a grace period of another 30 days), verifies whether these accounts are valid through determining whether the Group still has open communication with the debtor, preparing a schedule of outstanding receivables that are scheduled for payment at some future

*SGVMC401862*

date, preparing a summary of post-dated checks issued for the outstanding receivables and tracing the outstanding receivables to its source document, such as official receipts. If the Group has determined that the receivables are uncollectible since there is no communication with the debtor, a full allowance shall be provided for the said account. For those accounts which the Group has still open communications, a demand shall be made for the payment. No allowance for these accounts shall be made unless the debtor has financial difficulty, ascertaining to the Group that it can no longer settle its obligations. These reserves are evaluated and adjusted as additional information becomes available. An increase in the Group’s allowance for impairment losses on receivables would increase the Group’s recorded expenses and decrease current assets. As of December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Group has trade and other receivables amounting to P=112.4 million and P=97.8 million, net of allowance for impairment losses of P=3.1 million and P=3.5 million, respectively (see Note 5). Allowance for inventory losses The Group estimates the allowance for inventory losses related to store and kitchen supplies and operating equipment for sale whenever the utility of these inventories becomes lower than cost due to damage, physical deterioration or obsolescence. The amount and timing of recorded expenses for any period would differ if the Group made different judgments or utilized different estimates. Due to the nature of the food and beverage inventories, the Group conducts monthly inventory count and any resulting difference is charged to expenses. The carrying value of the inventories amounted to P=62.0 million and P=49.3 million as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively (see Note 6). Useful lives of property and equipment The Group reviews annually the estimated useful lives of the property and equipment based on expected asset utilization as anchored on business plans and strategies that also consider expected future technological developments and market behavior. It is possible that future results of operations could be materially affected by changes in these estimates brought about by changes in the factors mentioned. A reduction in the estimated useful lives of property and equipment would increase the recorded depreciation and amortization expense and decrease noncurrent assets. The carrying value of property and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization, amounted to P=372.2 million and P=343.8 million as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively (see Note 8). Impairment of property and equipment PFRS requires that an impairment review be performed when certain impairment indicators are present. Determining the fair value of property and equipment, which require the determination of future cash flows expected to be generated from the continued use and ultimate disposition of such assets, requires the Group to make estimates and assumptions that can materially affect the consolidated financial statements. Any resulting impairment loss could have a material adverse impact on the Group’s financial condition and results of operations. In determining the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to be generated from the continued use of the assets, the Group is required to make estimates and assumptions that can materially affect the consolidated financial statements.

- 23 -

*SGVMC401862*

The preparation of the estimated future cash flows involves significant judgment and estimations. While the Group believes that the assumptions are appropriate and reasonable, significant changes in the assumptions may materially affect the assessment of recoverable values and may lead to future additional impairment charges under PFRS. The aggregate net book values of property and equipment amounted to P=372.2 million and P=343.8 million as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively (see Note 8). Useful life and impairment of trademarks The Group determines that its trademarks are intangible assets with finite lives. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the useful economic life. The amortization period and the amortization method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at each financial year-end. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset is accounted for by changing the amortization period or method, as appropriate, and treated as changes in accounting estimates.

Intangible assets with finite lives are assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. However, due to the stiff competition in the industry where the Group operates and the uncertainty in the business environment, the Group decided to subject the assets to annual impairment testing to assess reasonableness of the assigned useful life. Assessment for impairment requires an estimation of the value in use of the cash-generating units to which the trademarks are allocated. Estimating the value in use requires the Group to make an estimate of the expected future cash flows from the cash-generating unit and also to choose a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows. Based on projections made by management on cash flows arising from the investees where the trademarks relates, there were no indications that the carrying amount of trademarks had been impaired as of December 31, 2008 and 2007. The carrying value of trademarks as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 amounted to P=438.7 million and P=413.9 million, respectively (see Note 10). Fair value of trademarks The cost of trademarks acquired in business combinations is the fair value as of the date of acquisition. The fair value is based on the valuation by an independent appraiser firm, which management believes, holds a recognized and relevant professional qualification and has experience in the category of the asset being valued. The appraiser firm used the cost approach in determining the fair value of the trademark. Impairment of goodwill The Group determines whether goodwill is impaired at least on an annual basis. This requires an estimation of the value in use of the cash-generating units to which the goodwill is allocated. Estimating the value in use requires the Group to make an estimate of the expected future cash flows from the cash-generating unit and also to choose a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows.

*SGVMC401862*

Based on projections made by management on cash flows arising from the investees where the goodwill relates, there were no indications that the carrying amount of goodwill had been impaired as of December 31, 2008 and 2007. The carrying amount of goodwill as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 amounted to P=82.6 million and P=59.0 million, respectively (see Note 10). Determination of the debt component of the convertible notes The determination of the debt component of the convertible notes is based on the discounted amount of future cash flows of the interest payments since the notes are mandatorily convertible into a fixed number of common shares after the lapse of the term. Interest payment is the higher of consolidated net income or the dividends that the holder of the Note would have been entitled to as discussed in Note 15. Effectively, the dividends on common shares would serve as the minimum interest on the note. However, it is difficult to estimate these future dividends since there are no committed dividends on PHI’s common shares. A pattern or trend could not also be determined based on dividend payments in the past. Consequently, the liability component was calculated based on the consolidated forecasted net income. As of December 31, 2008 and 2007, convertible notes, presented as part of noncurrent liabilities, amounted to P=6.3 million and P=9.7 million, respectively, while the accrued interest on debt component of convertible notes, presented as part of trade and other payables account, amounted to P=4.9 million and P=7.0 million, respectively (see Notes 12 and 15). Retirement benefit costs The determination of the Group’s obligation and cost for retirement is dependent on the selection of certain assumptions used by actuaries in calculating such amounts. Those assumptions include, among others, discount rates, expected rate of returns on plan assets and salary increase rates (see Note 20). Actual results that differ from the Group’s assumptions, subject to the 10% corridor test, are accumulated and amortized over future periods and therefore, generally affect the recognized expense and recorded obligations in such future periods. While management believes that its assumptions are reasonable and appropriate, significant differences in the actual experience or significant changes in the assumptions may materially affect the Group’s retirement and other post-employment obligations. The assumed discount rates were determined using the market yields on Philippine government bonds with terms consistent with the expected employee benefit payout as of balance sheet dates. The expected return on plan assets assumption is determined on a uniform basis, taking into consideration the historical returns and the future estimates of investment returns. As of December 31, 2008 and 2007, accrued retirement liability amounted to P=11.3 million and P=9.3 million, respectively. Fair value of the plan assets amounted to P=34.7 million and P=26.4 million as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively (see Note 20). Income taxes There are certain transactions and computations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. The Group recognizes liabilities for expected taxes to be paid in the future based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. Where the final outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recognized, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred income tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made. The carrying amount of the Group’s income tax payable is P=2.6 million and P=1.8 million as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively (see Note 21).

- 25 -

*SGVMC401862*

Assessing realizability of deferred income tax assets The Group reviews the carrying amounts of deferred income tax assets at each balance sheet date and reduces the amounts to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax assets to be utilized. Significant judgment is required to determine the amount of deferred income tax assets that can be recognized based upon the likely timing and level of future taxable profits together with future planning strategies. The Group has temporary differences amounting to P=8.8 million and P=1.6 million as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, for which no deferred income tax assets were recognized. The carrying value of the recognized deferred income tax assets amounted to P=44.0 million and P=48.9 million as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively (see Note 21). Contingencies The Company and PHVI are currently involved in a legal proceeding. The estimate of the probable costs for the resolution of this claim has been developed in consultation with outside counsel handling the Companies’ defense in this matter and is based upon an analysis of potential results. The Company and PHVI currently do not believe that this proceeding will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, thus, no accrual were made in the books. It is possible, however, that future results of operations could be materially affected by changes in the estimates or in the effectiveness of the strategies relating to this proceeding (see Note 24). Fair values of financial assets and liabilities The Group carries certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value, which requires extensive use of accounting estimates and judgments. While significant components of fair value measurement were determined using verifiable objective evidence (i.e., quoted prices, interest rates, foreign exchange rates, volatility), the amount of changes in fair value would differ if the Group utilized a different valuation methodology. Any changes in fair value of these financial assets and liabilities would affect income and loss. Where the fair value of certain financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the consolidated balance sheet cannot be derived from active markets, they are determined using internal valuation techniques using generally accepted market valuation models. The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is not feasible, estimates are used in establishing fair values. The judgments include considerations of liquidity and model inputs such as correlation and volatility for longer dated derivatives. The fair values of the Group’s financial instruments are presented to the consolidated financial statements. The carrying amount of the Group’s financial assets amounted to P=260.0 million and P=212.1 million as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The carrying amount of liabilities amounted to P=702.5 million and P=592.9 million, respectively (see Note 27).

5. Trade and Other Receivables

2008 2007 Trade P=74,967,273 P=62,960,376 Royalties (see Note 23) 16,272,595 11,231,192 Officers and employees 4,684,661 3,822,165 Credit card receivable 2,772,547 4,885,579 Others 16,793,069 18,396,950 115,490,145 101,296,262 Less allowance for impairment losses 3,076,193 3,469,427 P=112,413,952 P=97,826,835

Terms and conditions of the above financial assets: • Trade receivables are non-interest bearing and are normally settled on 15-30 days’ terms. • Other receivables are non-interest bearing and have an average term of 1-2 months. Trade receivables pertain to commissary sales billed to franchisees which are secured and interest free. The franchisees provide deposits, which is equivalent to an estimate of 15-day purchases, as guarantee on their payables to the Company. As of December 31, 2008 and 2007 the value of deposits which is recorded under “Trade and other payables” account amounts to P=20.3 million and P=39.1 million, respectively. The deposits are applied against the overdue purchases of the franchisees. Other receivables primarily pertain to reimbursable costs incidental to the operations of the franchise stores. Movement of allowance for impairment losses is as follows:

Goodwill acquired through business combinations and trademarks have been attributed to each investee as a single cash-generating unit to where the specific asset is related.

Based on projections made by management on cash flows arising from the investees where the goodwill and trademarks relates, there were no indications that the carrying amount of goodwill and trademarks had been impaired as of December 31, 2008 and 2007.

The recoverable amounts of the investments have been determined based on a value in use calculation using cash flow projections based on financial budgets approved by senior management covering a five-year period. The discount rate applied to cash flow projections range from 13% to 15% both in 2008 and 2007, and cash flows beyond the 5-year period are extrapolated using a zero percent growth rate.

The calculations of value in use of goodwill are most sensitive to the following assumptions:

Discount rates - Discount rates reflect management’s estimate of the risks specific to each unit. This is the benchmark used by the management to assess operating performance and to evaluate future investment proposals. In determining appropriate discount rates for each unit, regard has been given to the yield on a twenty-year government bond at the beginning of the budgeted year.

*SGVMC401862*

Growth rate estimates - The long-term rate used to extrapolate the budget for the investee companies excludes expansions and possible acquisitions in the future. Management also recognizes the possibility of new entrants, which may have significant impact on growth rate assumptions. Management however, believes that new entrants will not have significant adverse impact on the forecast included in the budget.

13. Loans Payable The Company and TBGI obtained peso denominated short-term loans from several banks and from stockholders of the Company amounting to P=264 million and nil, respectively, in 2008 and P=120.5 million and P=20.5 million, respectively, in 2007, to finance working capital requirements.

14. Long-term Debt

On June 23, 2004, the Company obtained a peso denominated long-term loan from Metropolitan Bank and Trust Company (the Bank). The loan, which bears interest quarterly at the MART1 rate (13.01% per annum) as of the date of availment plus 2%, is payable as follows: a) P=45 million each on July 23, 2007 and 2008 and b) P=60 million on July 23, 2008. Due to the lower interest rates prevailing in 2007, PHI negotiated with the Bank for a conversion of the interest from fixed to a floating rate. Starting June 23, 2007, the interest rate was converted to a floating rate, subject to quarterly re-pricing based on MART1 rate plus 2%. On March 30, 2007, the Company availed of a 150 million peso-denominated three year term loan from the Bank. Proceeds were used partly to settle an existing loan obtained in June 2004, which was availed to finance the acquisition of DFSI. The loan, which bears a fixed interest rate of 7.25% per annum carries a bullet principal payment at the end of the term.

The Company was unable to maintain a current ratio of at least 1:1 in 2008, which is the second year that the loan is outstanding. As a consequence, the principal loan became due and demandable without presentment, demand, protest, or further notice of any kind and classified it as part of current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2008, the Company has not yet received written notice for full payment of the loan and interests from the Bank. On January 20, 2009 though, the Company was able to secure a waiver from the bank, waving the said covenant and granting the Company until September 30, 2009 to comply with the requirements.

Interest on long-term debt amounted to P=10.9 million, P=12.2 million and P=15.6 million in 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

These agreements provide for a pre-termination without penalty at the end of the second year and a mandatory prepayment if Martin I.P. Lorenzo is replaced as Chairman, President or Chief Executive Officer of the Company and either he ceases to own and control at least 51% of the outstanding capital stock of PHHI or PHHI ceases to directly or indirectly own and control at least 50% of the outstanding capital stock of the Company.

The loan is collateralized by a chattel mortgage of owned assets of DFSI and a pledge of all present and future shares of stock of DFSI. Under the loan agreement, the Company is required, among others, to maintain at all times certain ratios; promptly give written notice to the bank of any change in the composition of its BOD, in so far as it arises out of a change in its ownership; and promptly inform the bank of any exercise of options granted to third persons over pledged shares.

The loan agreement also contains a number of negative covenants that, among others, subject to certain exceptions and qualifications, restrict the Company’s ability to take certain actions without the Bank’s approval, including changing the nature of its business, permitting any material change in the ownership or control of its capital stock, declaring or paying dividends to its stockholders if payment of any sum due the Bank hereunder is in arrears, granting loans or advances to any of its directors, officers, and/or stockholders, which in the aggregate would exceed about P=12.0 million a year, creating any debt or availment of additional loan(s) with final maturity exceeding one year.

15. Convertible Notes

On October 21, 2006, the Company entered into an investment agreement with the Investors for the acquisition of TBGI, as contemplated under the Memorandum of Agreement dated September 20, 2006 between the Company and TBI/TTI. Through this investment agreement, the Company will issue a five-year convertible notes to the Investors, denominated in peso at the prevailing exchange rate at the time of issue (P=55.12) or the Peso equivalent of US$4 million. The Notes shall be entitled to interest commencing from the year of funding (2006) equivalent to (a) fifty percent (50%) of the consolidated audited net profit after tax of PHI for the current fiscal year multiplied by the equity interest of the Investors, or (b) the dividend which would have been due to the Investors if they already held Conversion Shares instead of the Notes as of the dividend record date, whichever is higher. Interest shall be payable in arrears semi-annually, on or before June 30 and December 31 of each year. The Investors, at their option, will have the right to convert their Notes, at any time after the issue date, into the number of fully paid, non-assessable common shares determined as follows: Issue price of the Notes for the conversion divided by the conversion price (P=4.56 per common stock) or adjusted conversion price. The conversion shares shall account for no less than an equity interest in the Company of 20.6728% or 49,158,950 common shares. In view of the five-year term of the Notes, unless the Notes are converted before the lapse of the term, the Notes shall be mandatorily converted into common shares as of the last day of the term.

On the same day, the Company bifurcated the debt component of the convertible notes and the excess was treated as notes for conversion to equity, which is presented as part of the equity section of the consolidated balance sheet. The debt component as discussed in Note 2 is the present value of the future cash flows of the interest payments as determined in reference to the consolidated forecasted net income. Subsequently, the debt component is accreted to its maturity value using the effective interest rate method. The effective interest used for the note was 13.13%. Accretion for 2008, 2007 and 2006 amounted to P=1.5 million, P=4.3 million and 3.1 million, respectively, and were presented as “Interest expense on the debt component of convertible notes” in the consolidated statement of income. In June 2007, Investors converted P=17,940,120 worth of convertible note into 4,000,000 shares at a conversion price of P=4.48503. The total par value of the shares amounting to P=4,000,000 was added to capital stock while the excess of total conversion price over the total par value amounting to P=13,940,120 was credited to additional paid in capital in the consolidated balance sheet.

20. Retirement Benefit Costs

The Group has funded defined benefit pension plans covering substantially all of its employees, which require contributions to be made to separately administered fund.

The following tables summarize the net retirement benefit cost recognized in the consolidated statements of income and the funded status and the amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheets and other information about the plans.

Components of retirement benefit costs recognized in the consolidated statements of income are as follows:

2008 2007 2006 Current service costs P=5,698,500 P=10,155,600 P=5,767,700 Interest costs 1,978,200 2,756,300 1,849,800 Expected return on plan assets (2,369,800) (1,665,600) (1,110,400) Actuarial net loss (gain) (1,197,800) 223,700 7,500 P=4,109,100 P=11,470,000 P=6,514,600

Components of accrued retirement liability recognized in the consolidated balance sheets are as follows:

2008 2007 Fair value of plan assets P=34,702,000 P=26,370,500) Present value of obligation (8,840,900) (22,469,400) Funded status 25,861,100 3,901,100 Unrecognized actuarial gain (14,549,916) 13,227,700 P=11,311,184 P=9,326,600

Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation are as follows:

2008 2007 Balances at beginning of year P=22,469,400 P=33,248,300 Current service costs 5,698,500 10,155,600 Interest costs 1,978,200 2,756,300 Benefits paid (726,700) (1,110,700) Actuarial loss (20,578,500) (22,580,100) Balances at end of year P=8,840,900 P=22,469,400

Changes in the fair value of plan assets are as follows:

2008 2007 Balances at beginning of year P=26,370,500 P=18,289,600 Expected return on plan assets 2,369,800 1,665,600 Contributions 7,398,000 8,183,300 Benefits paid (726,700) (1,110,700) Actuarial loss (709,600) (657,300) Balances at end of year P=34,702,000 P=26,370,500

- 37 -

*SGVMC401862*

The major categories of plan assets as a percentage of the fair value of total plan assets are as follows:

2008 2007 Investment securities 84.8% 70.1% Time deposits 13.7% 29.2% Receivables 1.5% 0.7% 100.0% 100.0%

The actual return on plan assets as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 amounted to P=1.7 million and P=1.0 million, respectively.

The overall expected rate of return on assets is determined based on the market prices prevailing on that date, applicable to the period over which the obligation is to be settled. The principal assumptions used in determining the pension obligations for the Group’s plan beginning January 1 are shown below:

2008 2007 Discount rate 16.9% -17.6% 8.0% Investment yield 6.0% - 8.0% 9.0% Salary increase rate 6.0% - 8.0% 9.0 %

The Group does not expect to contribute to the retirement fund in 2009 since the total fund asset exceeds the total actuarial retirement liability.

21. Income Taxes

The Group’s net deferred income tax assets account in the consolidated balance sheets follow:

2008 2007 Deferred income tax assets:

24. Contingencies

The Company and PHVI were named defendants in a civil case filed in October 2002 by Kenmor for the collection of a sum of money and damages. As of March 30, 2009, management and its legal counsel believe that no provision needs to be made in the accounts since the case is only at the early stage of the proceedings, thus, the outcome is not yet determinable and it is impracticable to make a reliable estimate.

25. Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies and Financial Instruments The BOD is mainly responsible for the overall risk management approach and for the approval of risk strategies and principles of the Group. It has also the overall responsibility for the development of risk strategies, principles, frameworks, policies and limits. It establishes a forum of discussion of the Group’s approach to risk issues in order to make relevant decisions. The Group’s principal financial instruments consist of loans payable, long-term debt and convertible notes. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to raise funds for the Group’s operations. The Group has various financial instruments such as cash, trade and other receivables, deposits on lease contracts and trade and other payables, which arise directly from its operations. The main risks arising from the use of financial instruments are liquidity risk, credit risk, interest rate risk and foreign currency risk. The Company’s BOD reviews and approves the policies for managing each of these risk and they are summarized below.

Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the Group may encounter difficulties in raising funds to meet commitments from financial instruments The Group seeks to manage its liquid funds through cash planning on a weekly basis. The Group uses historical figures and experiences and forecasts from its collection and disbursement. As part of its liquidity risk management, the Group regularly evaluates its projected and actual cash flows. It also continuously assesses conditions in the financial markets for opportunities to pursue fund raising activities.

- 42 -

*SGVMC401862*

The Group’s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of bank loans, loans from related parties and other long-term debts. The Group considers its available funds and its liquidity in managing its long-term financial requirements. It matches its projected cash flows to the projected amortization of long-term borrowings. For its short-term funding, the Group’s policy is to ensure that there are sufficient operating inflows to match repayments of short-term debt. The table below summarizes the maturity profile of the Group’s financial liabilities as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 based on contractual undiscounted payments. 2008 On demand

Credit Risk Credit risk refers to the potential loss arising from any failure by counterparties to fulfill their obligations, as and when they fall due. Concentrations arise when a number of counterparties are engaged in similar business activities, or activities in the same geographic region, or have similar economic features that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by changes in economic, political or other conditions. Concentrations indicate the relative sensitivity of the Company’s performance to developments affecting a particular industry. The Group has no significant concentration of credit risk with any single counterparty or group of counterparties having similar characteristics. Since the Group trades only with recognized third parties, there is no requirement for collateral. The Group trades only with recognized, creditworthy third party. It is the Group’s policy that all customers who wish to trade on credit terms are subject to credit verification procedures In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that Group’s exposure to bad debts is not significant. With respect to credit risk arising from the other financial assets, which comprise cash and deposits on lease contracts, the Group’s exposure to credit risk arises from default of the counterparty, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these instruments.

low probability of insolvency. • Trade and royalty receivables assessed as high grade are amounts settled on due date based on

historical experience. • Advances to officers and employees are either collected through salary deduction or secured

by cash bond. • Notes receivables are collected through receipt of postdated checks for the five year monthly

amortization of principal. Past collection experience shows that there were no defaults on the clearance of the postdated checks.

• Other receivables assessed as standard grade are amounts settled several days after due date. • Based on past experience, deposits are applied against rentals. Foreign currency risk The Group’s policy is to maintain foreign currency exposure within acceptable limits and within existing regulatory guidelines. The Group believes that its profile of foreign currency exposure on its assets and liabilities is within conservative limits for a financial institution engaged in the type of business in which the Group is engaged. The Group’s exposure to foreign currency exchange risk as of December 31, 2008 pertains to the financial statements of PHII and PHIM which were presented in US$ and Malaysian Ringgit (MYR), respectively. Prior to including it in the consolidation, the balances were first translated using the closing exchange rates with respect to the consolidated balance sheet and the average exchange rates for the years with respect to the consolidated statements of income. The Group has US$ dollar denominated and Malaysian Ringgit denominated receivables from affiliates amounting to US$300,047 and MYR 553,539, respectively, as of December 31, 2007 and nil for 2008. As of December 31, 2007, the exchange rates of the Philippine peso to the US$ is P=41.28 to US$ 1.00, respectively. Exchange rates of the Philippine peso to MYR as of December 31, 2007 are P=12.43 to MYR 1.0, respectively.

- 45 -

*SGVMC401862*

The following table sets forth, for the period indicated, the impact of the range of reasonably possible changes in the US$:P= and MYR:P= exchange rate on the Company’s pre-tax income:

2007 USD +1% P=123,859 -1% (123,859) MYR +0.39% P=26,824 -0.39% (26,824)

The impact on the Group's equity already excludes the impact on transactions affecting the profit and loss.

26. Capital management

The primary objective of the Group’s capital management is to ensure that it maintains a strong credit rating and healthy capital ratios in order to support its business and maximize shareholder value. The Group manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it, in light of changes in economic conditions. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the dividend payment to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares. No changes were made in the objectives, policies or processes as of December 31, 2008 and 2007. The Group monitors capital using the debt to equity ratio, which is total liabilities divided by the total equity. The Company’s policy is to keep the debt to equity ratio at not greater than 2:1. The Group determines total liabilities as the sum of trade and other payables, loans payable, other current liabilities, long-term debt, notes payable, debt component of convertible notes, accrued rentals and mortgage payable. Debt to equity ratios of the Company as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 are as follows:

2008 2007 Trade and other payables P=282,198,897 P=292,129,685 Loans payable 263,999,592 141,000,000 Long-term debt 150,000,000 150,000,000 Debt component of convertible notes 6,328,687 9,720,403 Accrued rentals 15,671,170 15,311,744 Mortgage payable 880,274 2,961,526 Accrued retirement liability 11,311,184 9,326,600 Income tax payable 2,612,994 1,846,498 Total liabilities (a) 733,002,798 622,296,456 Total equity (b) 688,707,587 663,815,771 Debt to equity ratio (a/b) 1.06:1 0.94:1

Financial Instruments Fair Value Information and Categories of Financial Instruments The carrying values and fair values of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 are as follows: Carrying Value Fair Value 2008 2007 2008 2007 Financial Assets: Loans and receivables Cash and cash equivalents P=147,223,451 P=113,589,597 P=147,223,451 P=113,589,597 Trade and other receivables - net 112,413,952 97,826,835 112,413,952 97,826,835 Long-term receivables – 718,302 – 718,302 P=259,637,403 P=212,134,734 P=259,637,403 P=212,134,734 Financial Liabilities: Other financial liabilities Trade and other payables P=282,198,897 P=292,129,685 P=282,198,897 P=292,129,685 Loans payable 263,999,592 141,000,000 263,999,592 141,000,000 Long-term debt 150,000,000 150,000,000 150,000,000 150,000,000 Debt component of convertible notes 6,328,687 9,720,403 6,328,687 9,720,403 P=702,527,176 P=592,850,088 P=702,527,176 P=592,850,088

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument for which it is practicable to estimate such value: Cash The carrying amount of cash approximates the fair value due to the short-term maturity of these financial instruments. Trade and Other Receivables, Advances to Related Parties, Trade and Other Payables, Advances from Stockholders and Other Current Liabilities The historical costs of trade and other receivables, advances to related parties, trade and other payables, advances from stockholders and other current liabilities, which are all subject to normal trade credit terms, approximate their fair values. Loans Payable and Mortgage Payable The carrying values of the fixed rate-interest bearing loans payable approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. Long-term Debt, Notes Payable and Debt Component of Convertible Notes The fair values of the fixed rate interest bearing notes payable and debt component of convertible notes are based on the discounted value of future cash flows using the applicable rates ranging from 6.2% to 7.7%.

28. Segment Information

As mentioned in Notes 2 and 3, the Company and its subsidiaries are primarily engaged in the business of catering of food and establishing, operating, and maintaining restaurants, coffee shops, refreshments parlors and cocktail lounges. Accordingly the Group operates mainly in one reportable business segment which is the food segment and one reportable geographical segment which is the Philippines.
