To the Shareholders

The year 2015 was the year when our company

was affected by the world economic recession,

which despite improvements remains still fragile.

Especially, the manufacturing sector has sustained

a negative impact from the slum in international

trade, which has not recovered yet. Moreover, the

Thai economy still lacks sufficient supportive

factors to drive the country economic potential to

reach its highest level, an important obstacle to the

Thai export sector. All these negative conditions

naturally led to a slowdown in our industrial estate

business.

However, Amata did not give up but has put more

attention to expanding the industrial estate business

in the Socialist Republic of Vietnam (“Vietnam”),

where Amata believes in our further future success,

based on our over 20-year experience. Vietnam

has high potential in attracting foreign investors to

invest in the industrial estate, as evidenced by the

high figure of continuous increase of FDI each year.

Vietnam should be regarded as our bright future.

Besides, Amata has also focused in related

businesses in order to facilitate our clients in the

estate, such as education, communication,

telecommunication, and also industrial gas supply

service through joint ventures with specialized

companies for each business. As a result, Amata

could earn more recurring income.

In order to support the above mentioned investment,

our subsidiary companies have acquired more funds

through the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET).

Amata Summit Ready Built Co., Ltd (ASRB) entered

into sale and lease transactions for properties with

a trustee acting on behalf of the trust, and the trust’s

units has been listed as securities by the approval

of SET.

The investment expansion follows the company’s

vision, to be the world’s leader in industrial estate

development, focusing in developing industrial

estate business as well as related businesses.

We have been operating in accordance with the

guidelines for “environmentally friendly and

sustainable development” under good corporate

governance. Consequently, we strongly believe that

our company will be sustainably successful.

On this occasion, I would like to thank all the

shareholders, investors, customers, stakeholders

and business partners for your continued support

and cooperation. I also would like to express my

gratitude to Amata’s management and employees

for their hard work, support and dedication they

have given to our company.

Later, Amata Vietnam reorganized the shareholding structure between Amata Corp and some groups of Thai investors. In

theyear2009,AmataVietnamincreasedtheregisteredcapitalfromUSD17,000,000toUSD20,400,000tosupportthe

expansion of land developments for commercial and residential projects located at the entrance of industrial estate. With

this plan, it affected to Amata Corp and its wholly-owned subsidiaries namely Amata Water and Amata Asia (previously

namedAmataHongKongLtd.)holdingsharesbothdirectlyandindirectlyinAmataVietnamtotaling62.88%andnineThai

investorstotaling7.22%.

In September 2012, Amata Vietnam reorganized the shareholding structure especially the parts of which Amata Corp and

itssubsidiariesandThaiinvestorswhocumulativelyhold70%sharesbyselling69.99%sharesinAmataVietnamtothe

Company. With this regard, the Company settled via share swap, thus making the Company immediately turn out to be

themajorshareholderofAmataVietnambyholding69.99%sharesintotal.Inthemeantime,AmataCorpanditssubsidiaries

and Thai investors became the shareholders of the Company. Furthermore, Amata Corp purchased all of the Company’s

shares held by Amata Water after share swap transaction. At post restructuring, Amata Corp and Amata Asia held shares

totaling89.83%whereasThaiinvestorsheld10.17%.

Since Amata Corp realized the growth protential of industrial estate business in Vietnam, Amata Corp then formulated their

policy to spin-off the business by lising Company’s shares in the Stock Exchange of Thailand to allow the Company to get

access to potential funding sources for business expansion and mitigate the risk of relying their financing capabilities on

Amata Corp. Further to this intention, the Company obtained the approval from Amata Corp’s Board of Directors in the

MeetingNo.7/2012dated26December2012.

However, Amata Vietnam has not considered requesting for the permission to operate the business on the additional area

of 138 hectares (or 863 rais). Amata Vietnam will take it into consideration when appropriate and needed. With regard to

the valid period of Investment Certificate of the remaining area, it will effectively count once Amata Vietnam finishes the

approval application process with the related

On 31 December 2015, the total industrial estate areas approximately 513 hectares (or 3,206 rais) are comprised of the

projects in phase 1 2A 2B 2D 2E and 3A. Amata Vietnam has signed the land lease agreement with the governmental unit

of Dong Nai province to develop this project, of which 423-hectare area (or 2,644 rais) has been completed. The remaining

area of 90 hectares (or 750 rais) in the project phases of 2E and 3A are still in the process of land expropriation. However,

Amata Vietnam expects to finish such process and can enter into the land lease agreement for project phase 3A totaling

area of 64.5 hectares by the year 2016.

Regarding to the land approval and allocation process, Amata Vietnam has been granted so from Dong Nai Industrial Zone

Authority (DIZA) for each project phase. After having been allocated, the government will expropriate the land and then

Amata Vietnam can enter into the land lease agreement for that area. However, there might be a difference between the

actual land allocated area and what is stated in the contract due to the variation in measurements in some land boundary

areas or difficulties arising from land expropriation. As such, Amata Vietnam will negotiate with the governmental authorities

to make the adjustments in the lease contract if any differences exist.

Industrial Land Lease

Amata Vietnam’s core business is to develop industrial estates and subdivide the estate into land plots for sale to investors

who seek to find land plots for factory construction. To pursue that, Amata Vietnam leases vacant land from the government

to develop and re-lease developed land plots to customers. The normal lease term is 50 years counting from Investment

Certificate approval. The customers leasing the land plots from Amata Vietnam will take over the remaining land use right

which will terminate upon Investment Certificate expiration.

As of 31 December 2015, Amata City (Bien Hoa) has the developed areas of industrial estates totaling 423 hectares

(or 2,644 rais) which are comprised of the project phase 1 2A 2B 2D and 2E. Above all, Amata Vietnam has its own policies

to allocate 30-35% of industrial estate areas for developing the utility service systems and common areas of green land.

Hence Amata Vietnam has net leasable area around 65-70% of the areas stated in the land lease agreement with the

government. As of 31 December 2015, Amata Vietnam has net leasable areas of 308.0 hectares (or 1,925 rais).

Amata Vietnam also offers RBF for the customer segment that requires flexibility, and speed and wants to avoid huge

initial capital investment, though, seek premium quality factory for short-term use.

Apart from providing a wide variety of choices to serve Amata Vietnam customers’ needs, Ready-Built Factories

provision is another source of recurring income to Amata Vietnam on top of their main cash flow generated from the

land lease. Also, a company can formulate a strategy for land management through Ready-Built Factories service as

an approach to create more values to the incomplete pieces of land by developing into the Ready-Built Factories and

renting out to the particular group of customers who look for the medium size of land.

Sales, Distribution Channel and Marketing Strategy

Amata VN’s marketing strategy was direct sales through its sales teams. Sales teams were separated between

industrial estate business and land lease for commercial and residential zones as target groups of these businesses

were different. Different strategies were then adopted for each business for maximum efficiency. Apart from

direct sales through its sales teams, Amata VN also procured customers through agency with compensation in

form of commission fee.

Amata VN was among the first industrial estate developers in Dong Nai province. Together with the high quality

and standard of Amata VN’s industrial estate which partly contributed to good reputation of Dong Nai province,

Amata VN, therefore, had a good relationship with the province and related governmental entities, e.g. Dong Nai

Industrial Zone Authority (DIZA), investment promotion entities, trade offices and other authorities, and was

continually supported by such entities. Additionally, Amata VN utilized online and printed media as well as

occasionally participating in exhibitions for advertising and public relations purpose.

Moreover, Amata VN had a policy to focus on nurturing a long-term relationship with its customers, both from

the development of high quality industrial estate to respond to the needs of customers and consistently good

services both before and after sales. Such services included providing advices and recommendation in various

aspects, e.g. assisting and coordinating with Amata VN’s clients in the application for the investment certificates

and other licenses required for their businesses. From the excellency of its industrial estate and comprehensive

services which well responded to the needs of the customers, Amata VN’s customers were continually satisfied

with its services. This was an important factor which attracted new clients through referral from the existing

customers and created confidence to Amata VN’s customers.

Presently, Amata VN started the joint marketing with Amata Corp to increase marketing cannel and to maximize

the use of resources of Amata Group as a whole. If the clients of Amata Corp wished to expand their business

to Vietnam, Amata Corp would closely advise and liaise with Amata VN’s sales teams. Amata VN expected that

this joint marketing would continually increase the number of clients and sales to the Company in the future. It

would compensate Amata Corp in form of commission fee as if Amata Corp was another agency company. In

addition, Amata VN did joint marketing with its alliances, including Sonadezi and Itochu Corporation, in form of

agents for Amata VN.

From the excellency of its industrial estate and comprehensive services which well responded to the needs of

the customers, Amata VN’s industrial estate became a premium-grade project which could demand higher price

of services compared with most of other industrial estates in the surrounding areas. As the rate of long-term

lease of land for industrial estates in Dong Nai province had continually risen, Amata VN had a policy to analyze

demand and supply of land in its industrial estate to target the long-term lease of land each year, and to determine

its land rental rate for maximum benefit to the Company. Apart from price determination based on demand and

supply, Amata VN also considered competition capability of its long-term rates compared with those of nearby

industrial estates for price determination. It would assess its remaining land together with the land price of other

industrial estates to adjust its long-term land rental rate regularly.

Industry Overview and Competition

Industry Outlook

Industrial estate was considered the most important fundamental factor for an establishment of the production

base of operators in various industries. Trend of each industry, therefore, inevitably had a direct impact on the

industrial estate industry in Vietnam. Apart from domestic economic condition, industry growth also depended

upon world economy, especially the countries with free trade and economic system such as Vietnam. Decent

economic condition would increase consumption rate of the population, allowing the operators in various industries

to expand their production base to increase the production capacity to serve the consumers’ needs, thereby

increasing demand in the areas in industrial estate.

Overview of Economy and Investment of Vietnam

Vietnam was situated on the western part of Indochina Peninsula, covering total of approximately 331,150

square kilometers. The northern part was adjacent to China, the western part adjacent to Laos, the southwest

adjacent to Cambodia, and the eastern part with long coast adjacent to South China Sea. Hanoi was the

capital of Vietnam, and was the center of the nation’s government and the hub for the northern commerce.

However, Ho Chi Minh City was Vietnam’s most important economic city, the hub of trading and services,

import-export and investment. Vietnam was governed under socialist system with one political party, i.e.

Communist Party of Vietnam. The country’s population stood at 91 million people, which was ranked the

third of the southeast Asia region (“Region”) after Indonesia and the Philippines, and was ranked the 14

globally. Its official national language was Vietnamese and English as the second language.

Most industrial estates in Vietnam were the areas where the government, private sectors, or a joint venture

between the government and the private sectors allocated the land for factories to operate systematically

within the same zones. Infrastructure and utilities were provided to the factories and staff in the industrial

estates, i.e. road, electricity, water, telecommunication and waste water treatment systems as well as other

facilities, etc. It was intended for appropriate city layout, and to solve environmental problem and city

congestion. Additionally, it allowed for the distribution of income and civilization to the region. Currently,

the industrial estate business had continually grown and tended to continue to grow in the future, as driven

by the investment expansion of domestic private sectors and foreign direct investment (FDI) in response

to consistent growth in domestic consumption demand and the expansion of export market. As at 2014,

according to the Market Potential Index of Global Business Knowledge, a research and information center

of Michigan State University, USA, which analyzed investment attractiveness of various countries around

the world based on several fundamental factors, e.g. size of the country, population, readiness of the

infrastructure, country risk, economic and consumption growth, etc., it scored investment attractiveness of

Vietnam at 24, which was ranked the 50 globally, and the 15 in Asia, close to the Region’s competitors,

i.e. Indonesia which was ranked the 39 , Thailand which was ranked the 45 and the Philippines which

was ranked the 47 . However, based mainly on the economic growth, Vietnam would be ranked the 7

globally and in Asia, which was more distinguished than Thailand, Indonesia and the Philippines which were

ranked the 11 , the 13 and the 17 , respectively.

Moreover, another crucial factor which would support the operating performance of the industrial estate

developers in the future is the governmental policy which comprised the limitation of the number of granted

industrial estates in the future and the requirement for a number of factories in the country which were

situated outside the industrial estates to relocate to the industrial estates for an orderliness of the country

and for better quality of life of the population. At present most factories which were still outside the industrial

estates were operated by domestic private sectors while those of the foreign investors were mostly situated

within the industrial estates.

According to the Foreign Investment Agency, in 2014, foreign direct investment in Vietnam stood at

approximately USD 21,920 billion, or an average growth of more than 24% in the past 10 years.

Vietnam’s consistent growth of the investment from the private sectors and its attractiveness to foreign

investors were the result of high and continually growing economic potential attributable to the economic

and social reform according to “Doi Moi” Policy which commenced in 1986 to adjust itself with the world’s

open economy system in order to open goods, services and investment market to the foreign countries.

Rules, regulations, law and governmental mechanism were amended to conform with the regulations of

the international organizations, e.g. World Trade Organization (WTO), the Association of South East Asian

Nations (ASEAN), Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) and the ASEAN Economic Community

(AEC), etc. Simultaneously, Vietnam continued to hold the policy to prevent the use of domestic assets

and natural resources as well as protecting certain businesses such as telecommunication, weaponry, etc.

Another factor attracting foreign investment was the country’s diversified climate and geography, allowing

Vietnam to be rich in valuable natural resources such as natural gas, oil and minerals, e.g. coal, steel,

copper, and to be suitable for agriculture. Vietnam was ranked the first exporter of black pepper and coffee

worldwide, and was rank the second rice exporter after Thailand.

Moreover, Vietnam entered into various free trade agreements, i.e. Vietnam-EU Trade Agreement (FTA)

and Trans-Pacific Strategic Economic Partnership Agreement (TPP). These agreements helped attracted

foreign investors to the country for increasing export.

In the past, Vietnam’s export market had consistently risen at the average growth rate of 21% p.a. In 2009

- 2014 its export value totaled approximately USD 150,000 million, which was the highest in the history.

Most exports were products manufactured by foreign operators invested in Vietnam.

Another reason for Vietnam to become production hub for export and to attract investment from foreign

investors was the relatively low labor wage compared with several countries in Asia region. In 2014 Vietnam’s

minimum wage stood at USD 1,220 p.a., which was ranked the fourth lowest wage of the countries with

competiveness in Asia after Indonesia, India and Laos. In addition to labor wage which was relatively lower

than average, the country was full of working age population (15 - 64 years old), which was accounted for

more than 70% of total population.

The government also focused on continual education and skill development of the population, as illustrated

by the population’s literacy rate of more than 90.3% and internet accessibility rate of 39.5% which was

higher than those of several countries in the Region.

In addition to labor advantage, transportation and logistics system was another factor vital to the foreign

investors. One advantage of Vietnam was its 3,444 kilometer border with South China Sea, the world’s

major shipping route connecting with the east Asia region, in the east. The S-shape coast was suitable

for the construction of maritime logistics system as well as deep-water seaport to support the export to

nearby countries, e.g. Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, the Philippines, Indonesia, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan,

Japan, South Korea and world market. According to the Trade and Investment Manual of Vietnam

prepared by the Department of Export Promotion, the Ministry of Commerce, at present there were

17 commercial seaports in Vietnam, supporting 15 million tons of goods per day. Major seaports were:

1. Saigon Port, the largest port in Vietnam, situated in Ho Chi Minh City in the southern part of the country.

It supported 10 million tons of goods p.a.

2. Da Nang Port, a major port in the central region, situated in Da Nang. It supported 8 million tons of

goods p.a. Currently the government had a policy to push forward this port to be the fifth largest port

of the world.

3. Haiphong Port, the second largest port of the country, situated in Haiphong in the northern part of

Vietnam. It supported 7-10 million tons of goods p.a.

4. Tan Cang Cai Mep Port, a major port in the southern region, situated on Cai Mep Estuary in Ba Ria

- Vung Tau Province. It supported 1-2 million tons of goods p.a.

In term of air transportation, Vietnam had four international airports, including one under development, as

follows:

1. Tan Son Nhat International Airport, the largest airport of the country, situated only 7 kilometers far from

Ho Chi Minh City. It supported approximately 600,000 tons of goods transportation in 2010 according

to the report by Airports Council International.

2. Da Nang International Airport, situated in Da Nang in the central part of the country approximately 2.5

kilometers far from the center of Da Nang.

3. Noi Bai International Airport, situated approximately 30 kilometers far from Hanoi in the northern part

of the country.

4. Long Thanh International Airport, situated in Dong Nai Province in the southern part of Vietnam,

approximately 30 kilometers far from Ho Chi Minh City. When phase 1 construction is completed in

2023, it will be the largest airport in southeast Asia. It is expected to support 80-100 million passengers

and around 5 million tons of goods transportation p.a.

Inland transportation network was vital to the connection of water and air transportation systems. It also

strengthened domestic logistics system. Presently Vietnam’s road network was 210,000 kilometers,

comprising approximately 14,935 kilometers of highway connecting with neighboring countries, e.g. the

northern part connecting with China, a large and high potential market of the world, and the western part

connecting with Laos whose economy grew continuously. However, road traffic congestion in the city and

s

insufficient road network which connected among the cities were major obstacles to the domestic

transportation. The government, therefore, planned to construct several expressways and additional road

network, as well as to standardize all public highway. Apart from the development of domestic inland

transportation network, the government of Vietnam also jointly planned with the government of four countries

in the Mekong River Sub-Region, i.e. Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and Myanmar, in the development of the

East-West Economic Corridor (EWEC) to connect Vietnam, Laos, Thailand and Myanmar, with the

destination in Da Nang, Vietnam and Mawlamyine, Myanmar. This would be the route connecting South

China Sea with Andaman Sea which was considered a major nautical route of the world. Additionally, the

Southern Economic Corridor (SEC) would be developed to connect Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand and

Myanmar, with the destination in Vung Tau and Quy Nhon, Vietnam, and Dawei (Tavoy), Myanmar. The

development of these two economic corridor projects would not only reduce transportation cost and

increase the transportation efficiency but also increase the investment in Vietnam to respond to the expansion

of trade along the economic corridor, regional trade and export to the world market.

To support foreign investment, a crucial mechanism supporting economy of Vietnam, the government

facilitated domestic investment by foreign investors by granting the foreign investors to hold 100% shares

in several businesses. Simultaneously, tax privileges were granted to domestic private investors and

foreign investors.

In addition to the above factors illustrating the potentials of Vietnam, the Asean Economic Community

(AEC) which would take place in 2015 was another factor which would help strengthen the potential and

competition capability of the country. The Asean Economic Community was the integration of 10 countries

within the Region, i.e. Thailand, Myanmar, Laos, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, the Philippines,

Cambodia and Brunei, for the economic unity of member countries, which would help increase their bargaining

power and position in the world economic forum. Four major aspects of the blueprint were 1) a single market

and production base, 2) a highly competitive economic region, 3) a region of fair economic development,

and 4) a region fully integrated into the global economy. An achievement of such blueprint included free

trade and services, facilitation of capital and labor movement as well as standardization of various rules

and regulations, e.g. economic policy, customs’ regulations and standard of goods quality, etc. Apart from

increasing the investment by domestic and foreign investors in response to the need of large consumer

base of the AEC which covered 621 million people in total, the Asean Economic Community would also

cause the increase in the movement of production base from other countries in the Region to Vietnam to

obtain benefits from several strengths of the country, such as low labor cost, rich natural resources and

efficient logistics system for the export to China and the world market.

Overview of the Economic Hubs in Vietnam

Key economic hubs of Vietnam were situated in three regions as follows:

1. Northern Economic Region

The northern region was divided into 26 provinces while the economic hubs consisted of seven

provinces, i.e.Ha Noi, Quang Ninh, Hai Phong, Hai Duong, Hung Yen, Vinh Phuc and Bac Ninh.

Strong points of the northern economic region were its connection with China, site for major cities

which were Hanoi, the country’s capital, and Hai Phong, a major industrial and port city. Industries

with investment potential were electronics and electrical appliances, machinery, auto parts,

construction materials, etc.

2. Central Economic Region

The central region was divided into 19 provinces while the economic hubs consisted of five

provinces, i.e. Thua Thien Hue, Quang Nam, Quang Ngai, Binh Dinh and Da Nang City. Strong

points of the central economic region were its beautiful scenery and rich natural resources.

Key economic center was Da Nang. Industries with investment potential were petroleum,

chemicals, plastics, heavy industry, tourism and related services.

3. Southern Economic Region

The southern region was divided into 19 provinces while the economic hubs consisted of eight

provinces, i.e. Ho Chi Minh City, Binh Duong, Ba Ria - Vung Tau, Dong Nai, Tay Ninh, Binh Phuoc

and Long An. Ho Chi Minh City was the region which could attract the highest investment from

overseas. In 2014 the southern economic region was the region with the most involvement in

economic development, attracting more than 58% of foreign direct investment, and accounting

for more than 40% of the country’s gross domestic product.

Investment Overview of Dong Nai Province

For the distinguished provinces targeted by the investors who wanted to invest in Vietnam, apart from Ho

Chi Minh City, the country’s most prominent economic center, and Hanoi, the commercial hub in the northern

region, Dong Nai was another alternative with high investment potential, as considered from the continually

increasing number of projects and investment value of foreign investors. In 2014 the number of projects

by new investors stood at 86 projects with a total value of as much as USD 638 million, ranked the 7

provinces with the highest foreign direct investment.

According to the statistics from the General Statistic Office of Vietnam, during the first ten months of 2015,

the investment in Dong Nai by foreign investors was ranked the third highest of the country, totaling USD

1.26 billion of registered capital and 88 projects by new investors. This illustrated its competitiveness

potential and readiness to be the investment base which had considerably developed.

In addition to the investment value within the province, the amount of gross domestic product of Dong Nai

province was another indicator of its importance to Vietnam’s economy. In 2014, Dong Nai’s gross

domestic product stood at approximately USD 8,000 million, which had been consistently growing at the

average growth rate of 12% p.a. during 2010 - 2014. Key industries which moved Dong Nai’s economy

were construction, services, agriculture and fishery.

Dong Nai province was situated in the southeastern part of the country at the heart of the southern economic

region. Its total area stood at 5,907 square kilometers, consisting of 11 cities with Bien Hoa as the economic,

political, social and cultural center. Dong Nai was on the west and only 30 kilometers away from Ho Chi

Minh City, and was in the midst of inland transportation network which connected major roads of the

country, including the road connecting major ports and airports, e.g. connecting with Saigon Port at the

distance of merely 32 kilometers, and connecting with Tan Son Nhat International Airport at the distance

of merely 35 kilometers.

In 2014, Dong Nai province occupied 2.8 million of population with the average growth rate of 2.6% p.a.

during 2010 - 2014, which was greater than the country’s average. This was partly due to the relocation to

Dong Nai by the population from other provinces. 1.9 million of total population, accounting for 69.3%, were

the working age while approximately 58% were in the labor market. Such factor allowed Dong Nai to be

the 5 largest labor market of the country. In addition to its efficiency and good education equivalent to

labor in key provinces of the country such as Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, labor wage in Dong Nai was

lower than that in Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi and several other provinces in Vietnam. Moreover, its connectivity

with Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam’s educational center, allowed for relatively ease of procuring quality labor

with high education to hold the key positions of the companies, especially middle and high level management.

With its border with civilization area and society as well as cheaper cost of living than that in Ho Chi Minh

City, e.g. food, rental, utility expenses and land price, a number of labor decided to work in Dong Nai,

especially in Bien Hoa city, the economic and social hub of the province with high development in residential

property. Compared with the provinces in the southern economic region, Dong Nai was the second most

populous province after Ho Chi Minh City.

The construction of production base in Dong Nai not only reduced the cost of labor with efficiency and

education similar to those in other key provinces but also reduced other investment costs compared with

the investment in other provinces, especially Ho Chi Minh City, an adjacent province, e.g. land and office

rental, commercial building rental, utility expenses, etc. Although Dong Nai’s infrastructure was less

efficient than that of major provinces such as Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi, the quality of its infrastructure

was considered close to that in such provinces and more efficient than that in several provinces. The

government had consistently developed the infrastructure, and had long-term development plan jointly

with the private sectors and foreign investors to cover major utilities, e.g. electricity, water and

telecommunication. Also, the government entities of Dong Nai province extensively supported the investment,

as seen from the amendments of policy and measures to facilitate the investment such as the shortening

of processes for investment license application, contact with the governmental entities, and project application,

etc.

Being the populous province with the population accounting for 3.1% of total population and ranked the 5

most populous province of the country was another key factor for domestic private investors and foreign

investors to choose Dong Nai as their production base to respond to the need of large market. Apart from

the number of population in the province, it also had higher purchasing power than the average of other

provinces in Vietnam, as seen from the consistent increase in GDP per capita in the previous years.

In 2014 the GDP per capita of Dong Nai stood at USD 2,778 per annum, which was higher than the country’s

average of approximately USD 2,052. According to the report of the Ministry of Labor of Vietnam, Dong

Nai succeeded in the reduction of the proportion of low income population from 7% of total population in

2011 to 1.9% in 2013. This illustrated significant improvement in the living condition of the population in

Dong Nai province. Additionally, comparing with the provinces in the southern economic region, Dong Nai

was the province which earned the 2 highest gross domestic product after Ho Chi Minh City.

Apart from the continual growth of the gross domestic product and the GDP per capita of Dong Nai, its

consumption value also grew constantly from the increasing purchasing power of the population. In 2010

- 2014, the average growth rate of household consumption value stood at16%. As at 2014, the household

consumption value of Dong Nai was ranked the 3 highest of the southern region of Vietnam, after Ho Chi

Minh City (HCMC) and Binh Duong provinces.

A majority of household consumption of Dong Nai was from Bien Hoa, its capital and the center of economy

and the government of Dong Nai province. As at 2014,urban population was as high as 904,000 people

with the urbanization rate of greater than 90%. Civilization expanded from the capital urged certain cities

in Dong Nai province to start to develop residential areas. More than 93% of trading value of the residential

property was still a sale and purchase of land plot. Most transactions took place in the areas close to the

potential areas for infrastructure development to support the continually growing population as a result of

the developing industrial city. As at the second quarter of 2015, price of the vacant land for residential

property in Dong Nai ranged from USD 108 to USD 471 per square meter. The selling price varied

depending upon the location and the civilization of theinfrastructure in such area. The average price of

vacant land in Bien Hoa and Long Thanh stood at USD 199 and USD 336 per square meter, respectively.

Dong Nai Industry Outlook

In the past, the development of industrial estate would be conducted solely by the government of Vietnam through

related state enterprise or governmental entity such as Sonadezi so that the industrial factories systematically

operated in the same area. The utility system and facility were allocated for the factories and staff in the industrial

estates. However, after the government conducted economic and social reform policy for a while, the international

trade and services was opened, including a grant for the foreign investors to invest in Vietnam more conveniently.

As a result, Vietnam’s economy and purchasing power gradually increased while the foreign investors started

to move their production base to Vietnam to export goods to the world market in response to increasing demand.

Accordingly, domestic and foreign investors needed to expand their investment in the country, resulting in

insufficiency of the industrial estates operated solely by the government to the need of the investors. The

government then started to allow both domestic and foreign private investors to operate the industrial estate

business in Vietnam. The government jointly invested with the private sectors through the government entities

or state enterprises in some projects. In several projects, the government even allowed private sectors to solely

own and operate the projects. Therefore, currently there were four approaches for the establishment of industrial

estate according to the type of ownership and project operator as follows:

1. Industrial estates owned and operated by the state enterprises or governmental entities

2. Industrial estates owned and operated by domestic private sectors

3. Industrial estates jointly owned and operated by foreign private sectors and the state enterprises or the

governmental entities

4. Industrial estates jointly owned and operated by foreign and domestic private sectors

However, the government of Vietnam did not have a policy for the industrial estates owned and operated by the

state enterprises or the governmental entities to sell the land to target customers. It only allowed for the lease

of land in a period of not more than 50 years. For the industrial estates type 2 to 4, the government of Vietnam

did not grant land ownership to the industrial estate developers. It only granted the long-term lease of such

land for industrial estate development. The period of land lease to each operator varied with the maximum

period of 50 years. Therefore, an authorization to use land within the industrial estates for the target group of

customers of every industrial estate operator both governmental and private sectors would be in form of

long-term land lease with the maximum rental period of 50 years.

In 2015, there were 299 industrial estates in Vietnam, covering total areas of 84,000 hectares throughout the

country. However, most industrial estates were clustered in the southern part of the country in response to

the need of manufacturers which clustered in the southern part of Vietnam, particularly in key economic

and commercial cities, i.e. Ho Chi Minh City, Dong Nai, Ba Ria-Vung Tau and surrounding provinces. Therefore,

the number of industrial estates and total project value were obviously greater than that in other regions.

However, demand for the industrial estates by the manufacturers had been growing constantly. The existing

salable or rental areas of the industrial estates in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City started to be insufficient to support

the expected demand in the future. As such, land selling price and long-term rental rate within the industrial

estates in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh increased. Additionally, the establishment of new industrial estates or the

expansion of the existing industrial estates were limited as several areas were developed into residential area

or other facilities, e.g. department store, school, hospital and governmental office, etc., to be fully developed

into urban society. As a result of such imbalance in demand and supply, the government and private industrial

estate developers expanded investment in the neighboring areas of Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, as well as the

expansion of investment towards other potential regions, both in form of the establishment of new industrial

estates and the expansion of the existing industrial estates.

Comparing with other provinces in the south, Dong Nai province was outstanding and targeted by the manufacturers

based on its location next to Ho Chi Minh City, readiness on labor and efficient transportation system. The

long-term land rental was also cheaper than that in key economic city such as Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi.

Dong Nai, therefore, became the province with high potential for industrial estate development of the government

and private developers. In 2014, the Provincial Competitiveness Index of Dong Nai stood at 57.3, which was

ranked the 7 of the southern provinces of Vietnam, and ranked the 42 of the whole country.

As at December 31, 2015, there were 32 industrial estates in Dong Nai province, covering total area of

approximately 9,970 hectares. Presently, rentable area stood at approximately 6,330 hectares, approximately

4,520 hectares were leased, or the occupancy rate of 72.71% of total rentable area. Considering the occupancy

rate of the industrial estates in each city, the occupancy rate of the industrial estates in Dinh Quan with only one

operator stood at 100%, the highest in Dong Nai province. The second highest occupancy rate of the province

was the industrial estates in Bien Hoa with four operators with the occupancy rate of 97%.

Most industrial estates in Dong Nai were located in the area next to Ho Chi Minh City and Binh Duong province,

e.g. Bien Hoa Nhon Trach, Long Thanh and Bien Hoa. Nhon Trach occupied the highest number of 10 industrial

estates with total long-term rentable area of approximately 2,258 hectares, accounting for 35.3% of total

industrial estate area in Dong Nai province. There were six industrial estates in Long Thanh with total long-term

rentable area of approximately 1,311 hectares, accounting for 20.5% of total industrial estate area in Dong Nai

province. There were four industrial estates in Bien Hoa with total long-term rentable area of approximately1,022

hectares, accounting for 16.1% of total industrial estate area in Dong Nai province.

The average remaining period of land of the industrial estates in Bien Hoa stood at approximately 33 years,

which was the lowest compared with other cities in the province. In addition to Amata VN’s industrial estate,

three other industrial estates had the remaining rental period of less than 40 years. However a part of future

expansion area of Amata VN’s industrial estate which is “Phase 3A and 3B” has remaining period of land as

45 years (Phase 3A) and 50 years (Phase 3B) totally more than 60 hectares as sellable area.

According to the information from Savills Research & Consultancy, three major industrial estate cities of Dong

Nai based on the long-term rental areas were Nhon Trach, Bien Hoa and Long Thanh, accounting for 72% of

total industrial estate areas in Dong Nai, and were the cities with the highest long-term rental rate of Dong Nai.

Long Thanh had the highest average growth rate of 14% during 2011 to quarter 2 of 2015, followed by 13% of

Bien Hoa and 3% of Nhon Trach.

Competition of the industrial estate operators in such province was relatively not intense since the success of

the industrial estate operation required, apart from skills and extensive experiences as well as intensive investment,

a good relationship with the government and other governmental entities. Such factor was considered a major

obstacle for new operator to compete in the industry (Barrier of Entry). As such,there were only 32 industrial

estates where as currently Amata VN’s project was considered the third largest industrial estate of the province

and was greater than the average of the industrial estates of the province of 300 hectares. Moreover, the

investment value of such project was the highest of the province. The competition among operators was limited

as there was no remaining vacant land or a small amount of remaining rentable area in some industrial estates.

The operator with the largest rentable area in Dong Nai was Sonadezi, operating 30% of total rental area of the

industrial estates, followed by Tin Nghia and VRG, operating 25% and14% of total rental area, respectively.

Amata VN was in the 5 rank with the proportion of 6% of total rental area. Although there were several industrial

estate operators in Dong Nai, only three industrial estates were jointly invested by foreign private operators, i.e.

(1) Amata City (Bien Hoa) Industrial Estate, owned by Amata VN, (2) Loteco Industrial Estate, operated by

Sojitz Corporation, a leading corporation in trading and investment from Japan, jointly with Thai Son

Corporation (Thasimex), a state enterprise under the Ministry of Defense at the shareholding proportion of

60:40, respectively, and (3) Long Duc Industrial Estate, operated by Sojitz Corporation jointly with Daiwa House

Industry Company Limited (Daiwa), a leading construction and real estate development company from Japan,

Kobelco Eco-Solutions Company Limited (Kobelco Eco), a leading environmental management system

company from Japan, and Dong Nai Import Export Processing Agricultural Products and Foods Company

(DONAFOODS), a state enterprise established by resolution of the People’s Committee of Dong Nai Province

to produce and export cashew nuts. Loteco Industrial Estate was jointly owned by four shareholders at the

proportion of 57.3%, 22.0%, 8.7% and 12%, respectively.

Competition of the Industrial Estates in Bien Hoa and Long Thanh

Since the projected revenues of Amata VN and Amata City Long Thanh would be mainly derived from the

long-term rental of land in the industrial estates in Bien Hoa and Long Thanh in the future, the study of market

and competitors was vital to the planning of marketing strategy.

industrial estates, approximately 979 hectares of which were rented with the average occupancy rate of 97%

(the increase from the average occupancy rate of 90% in 2013). There were four industrial estates in Bien Hoa,

As at quarter 2 of 2015, Long Thanh occupied total long-term rental area of approximately 1,311 hectares in six

industrial estates, approximately 760 hectares of which were rented with the average occupancy rate of 58%

(the increase from the average occupancy rate of 52% in 2013). This excluded Amata City Long Thanh project

which was under construction and expected to complete in 2017. It can be observed that there were only three

industrial estates with high quality of facility (average long-term rental rate of more than USD 90 per square

meter), i.e. Long Thanh Industrial Estate operated by Sonadezi, Long Duc Industrial Estate operated by Sojitz

and Go Dau operated by Sonadezi. Only Long Duc Industrial Estate had remaining area with the average

occupancy rate of only 27%.

Amata Vietnam had strong point over other competitors in term of the large capital base as currently, supported

by Amata Corp, the parent company of Amata Vietnam in the past. Additionally, Amata Vietnam would be

continually supported financially by the Company which was the parent company of Amata Vietnam at present

as the Company would be able to regularly raise fund through the Stock Exchange of Thailand after its listing

on the Stock Exchange of Thailand. Such large capital base enabled Amata Vietnam to have strong financial

position and be ready for the continuous expansion of industrial estate area in the existing projects and the

investment for the establishment of new industrial estates in the future to fully support the business opportunity

and economic growth in Vietnam. Apart from its financial strength, Amata Vietnam, as an experienced operator

in industrial estate development in Vietnam, was also equipped with a number of professional resources with

expertise in industrial estate development and management. Some management and staff worked with Amata

Corp, the Company’s parent company and a leading industrial estate operator in Thailand. As such,

Amata Vietnam could well respond to the need of the customers with excellent quality of services. Moreover,

Amata Vietnam had a good relationship with related governmental entities.

Apart from the aforementioned strengths, Amata VN also enhanced its competitiveness with several business

strategies as follows:

1. Amata Vietnam had a policy to differentiate its industrial estates from other operators through the development

of superior quality of infrastructure and utility system coupled with the development of land for long-term

lease so that the customers could be ensured of continual business operation should the infrastructure and

utility system supplied by the government crash. Samples of the infrastructure serviced by Amata Vietnam

to the customers within the industrial estates were water, wastewater treatment system, electricity, etc.

Such policy of Amata Vietnam differed from that of other operators which focused mainly on the development

of land for long-term lease or sale. Even though the infrastructure and utility system were supplied by some

projects, the quality of such system was not of the international standard. In addition, some operators did

not have infrastructure and utility system in place, exposing the customers to high risk of continual

business operation, especially for those with continual production line.

2. Amata Vietnam had allocated part of developed land for commercial and residential projects within the

industrial estates, e.g. shop, showroom, restaurant, hospital, school, sports and recreational center, apartment,

executive villa, hotel and office building, etc., with the objective to upgrade its industrial estates to be an

ideal city under “Perfect Smart City” concept fully equipped with facility for the executives and staff of the

operators in the industrial estates. Such policy clearly differentiated Amata VN’s industrial estates with

those of other operators, enabling it to attract upper-class customers. Therefore, such project was a crucial

factor which truly supported main business of Amata VN.

3. Amata VN allocated part of land for the construction of ready-made factory in its industrial estates for rent

by the operators in need of readiness and convenience for the commencement of business, the operators

who did not want to make an initial large investment for long-term land rental and plant construction to

mitigate business risk, and small or medium operators with limited capital. Such policy not only helped

diversify the group of customers and source of income of Amata VN, there by strengthening its

operating performance, but also differentiated it with most operators in Dong Nai. There were only 12

industrial estates equipped with ready-made factory for rent. Therefore, Amata VN had a competitive edge

over its rivals in attracting certain group of customers.

4. Amata VN focused on providing best services under international standard to all customers both before

and after the signing of long-term lease. It provided various advices such as assistance in obtaining

investment certificates and other licenses required for the business of the customers, etc. Such complete

services could well respond to the need of the customers, leading to continual customers’ satisfaction of

Amata VN’s services and its maintenance of a long-term relationship with the customers. Such policy was

a crucial factor for the positive public relations of Amata VN’s industrial estates amongst existing and new

target customers, enabling Amata VN to consistently expand its customer base.

With the above strengths and distinguished competition strategy, the industrial estates operated by Amata VN

was considered one of a few premium grade projects in Dong Nai. The long-term rental rate of land and utility

services of Amata VN stood at approximately USD 85-90 per square meter, which was greater than that of all

operators in Dong Nai, and was greater than the average long-term rental rate of land of the industrial estates

in each city within the province, as well as greater than the average long-term rental rate of Dong Nai which

stood at approximately USD 70-80 per square meter.

With the higher long-term rental rate of land and utility services compared with that of other industrial estates,

the industrial estates of Amata VN focused mainly on the upper-class customers, especially leading corporations

with high technology of production from Japan and Taiwan, which was the main target group that Dong Nai

Industrial Zone Authority (DIZA) wanted to attract their investment to Dong Nai province under the existing plan.

Except Amata VN, other operators in Dong Nai province would operate low to middle grade projects and did not

focus on the quality of the infrastructure and utility system. They also did not develop commercial and residential

areas within the industrial estates. Additionally, their service quality was inferior to the premium grade project

such as Amata VN. Therefore, competition strataegy of these industrial estates was mainly pricing and targeting

low to middle level customers with relatively low production technology, which was a different target group of

Amata VN.

Sources of Supply Land Sourcing

According to Vietnamese laws, non-Vietnamese are not allowed to own land; hence most of the industrial estate

developers will enter into a 50 year land lease agreement with the government and pay on an annual or one-time

lump-sum basis when the agreement is signed. Amata Vietnam will pass-through land lease cost to the customers

especially those who operate factories and have demand for long-term lease agreement.

Amata Vietnam has been granted the total land area of around 700 hectares (or 4,375 rais) for project development.

However, if Amata Vietnam would like to expand its project, it will need to obtain the approval for each project phase

from Dong Nai Industrial Zone Authority (DIZA) as per requirement from Investment Certificate (IC). At present, Amata

Vietnam’s projects that have been already granted Investment Certificates are project phase 1 2A 2B 2D 2E 3A and

the Amata Commercial Complex with the total area of around 532.1 hectares (or 3,326 rais) with details per below

Environment Impact Amata Vietnam Industrial Estate is built by considering the environmental impact. Amata Vietnam utilizes world-class

standard of technology in infrastructure development to minimize the impact to the environment. Amata Vietnam’s wastewater

treatment system are under activated sludge system and sequential batch reactors system in order to maintain high quality

and meet the standard level set by the related regulators. Moreover, Amata Vietnam sets the quality level of wastewater

released from factories located in the Amata Vietnam Industrial Estate before the wastewater is treated to ensure that the

quality of wastewater is under the standard level. Amata Vietnam installed automated inspection and monitoring systems

of treated water which will directly send the report to Amata Vietnam and Dong Nai Department of Natural Resources and

Environment every 5 minutes. Dong Nai Department of Natural Resources and Environment will check the quality of the

treated water of Amata Vietnam through sampling test every month. Furthermore, Amata Vietnam provides green areas

in Amata Vietnam Industrial Estate in order to reduce the air pollution and create beautiful scenery in the Amata Vietnam

Industrial Estate.

Vietnam’s Inflation Rate in the year 2008-2014 and Projection for the year 2015-2017

Amata VN Public Company Limited is a holding company investing in the development and management of industrial

estates and related supporting businesses in Vietnam. The Company presently considers the key risk factors that may

have significant impacts on its business earnings, financial position or future performance. However, there may be other

risks of which the Company is currently unaware or has deemed immaterial to its operations.

Business risksNature of business correlates with both Global and Vietnam economic changes

The global economic slowdown usually impacts investment decisions, which could lead to the decline in demand for

industrial land plots or more price pressure to stimulate the bearish demand. As a result, the performance of Amata Vietnam,

which is mainly tied to the foreign direct investment from multinational companies, could be jeopardized.

However, the statistics show that Vietnam still has strong exports and record-high foreign direct investments despite the

broader regional trend of economic slowdown, leading to a stronger sales of Amata Vietnam in terms of bookings during

the year.

Besides the economic growth factor, the unpredictable inflation in Vietnam that grew relatively fast during 2008-2013 at

the average rate of 11% per year might also reflect the extent of unpredictability of Vietnam Dong (VND) value that Amata

Vietnam might face in the future. However, the Vietnamese government fully realizes that foreign investors consider inflation

as one of decisive factors when placing their investments. Therefore, several new and amended policies are implemented

in order to cope with the problems and the outcome of which has been quite successful as the inflation in 2014 was reduced

to 4.1% from 18.7% in 2011. Consequently, IMF has predicted that the nation’s inflation will stabilize between 4-5% over

the years to come.

Although these risks are uncontrollable, the Company has been monitoring economic indicators and see more potential

for investments in Vietnam. The country has grown its attractiveness as an investment destination due to geographic

advantage and abundant labor at low cost as well as its participation in regional trade pacts. Its demographics and

development cycle, together with the diversification in terms of export products and markets, could bring more growth

to the country and at the same time generate more demand for industrial estate, which benefits Amata Vietnam’s

operating performance.

Uncertainty in Government Policie

Vietnam is considered as a socialist or not fully democratic country that has only a single political party in charge for

a long time so the government could fully exercise its power in driving the whole country towards a particular focus.

Vietnam has been in absence of violent political protest or significant rebel over the past years. Therefore, the likelihood

of political disruption or significant policy change that will impact the nation’s economy and investment is considered

low.

However, Vietnamese government has decentralized management power to provincial governmental authorities

allowing them to create their own commercial and investment management policies. As a result, governmental rules

might vary across provinces requiring Amata Vietnam to follow the rules closely in order to promptly adjust for any

changes.

Therefore, Amata Vietnam has an assigned project team, which includes those who have a clear local industry

knowledge and expertise about market, rules and regulations and industry landscape to understand the local regulations

and ensure its compliance when there is a change or when the company seeks any investment opportunities in

different locations. Moreover, the overall government policy will revolve around international integration through trade

deals and the pursuit of foreign investments in export manufacturing, which are key contributions for economic growth

in Vietnam. Thus, most changes in the government policies relating to investments are to facilitate foreign direct

investment inflows to Vietnam and this will be advantageous to Amata Vietnam.

Operational Risks Land Sourcing Risk

Amata Vietnam operates its business by engaging in long-term land lease from Vietnamese government to develop

into industrial estates and provide related supporting services. Its main location in Bien Hoa district has been developed

at a fast pace as it is economically and socially in the center of Dong Nai province. Residential and commercial

properties, such as schools, hospitals, shopping malls, and banks have been constructed widely in the city.

Over the recent years, the government has incentivized industrial development in Bien Hoa, causing less available

land for industrial estate development or delay in the investment certificate approval process due to the increased

difficulty in land expropriation process. The government may take a long time to involve community and start land

clearance process. However, there could be a potential for land disputes from community. As a result, Amata Vietnam

Page 53: VietNAm- the New PhAseamatav.listedcompany.com/misc/ar/20160418-amatav-ar2015-en-02.… · 18/4/2016  · Analysis : MD & A 137 Report on the Board of Directors’ Responsibilities

is exposed to project expansion risk which can impact directly to Amata Vietnam’s revenue.

To solve the limited expansion opportunity in the current project in Bien Hoa district, Amata Vietnam has another

expansion project in Long Thanh district, Dong Nai province. This project has received land demarcation approval

from the authority and received an investment certificate for a part of the project. The total area of the new project is

almost doubled in size as compared to the current site in Bien Hoa so this will provide more rooms for the Company’s

operating performance to grow.

Risk from Investment Certificate Expiration

Amata Vietnam is granted Investment Certificates to operate industrial estate development business over a certain

period of time, namely 50 years. However, investment certificate expiration is an incident that has never occurred,

so there has been no sample case for which Amata Vietnam can use as reference.

Vietnamese government has no rules and conditions upon the investment certificate renewal after the expiration of

the current investment certificates. Hence, Amata Vietnam is exposed to this uncertainty whether it will be able to

renew the certificates or operate the business once the current Investment Certificates expire.

However, Amata Vietnam believes the government still has adequate time to design the rules and conditions upon

expiration of the current Investment Certificates. Vietnamese government has also fully realized that this uncertainty

might affect the confidence among foreign investors which will be harmful to Vietnam economy as a whole. Hence,

Amata Vietnam expects itself to be granted Investment Certificates to continue its business since Amata Vietnam

meets all the granting criteria and has never violated any rules under its current granted Investment Certificates.

Uncertainty Risk of Future Projects

The company currently has two future projects in the pipeline under Amata City Long Thanh JSC consisting of Amata

City Long Thanh with the area of 410 hectares (2,562.5 Rai) and Amata Service City Long Thanh with the area of

122 hectares (762.5 Rai). Amata City Long Thanh has already received approval for the investment certificate and

currently under the land compensation process, while Amata Service City Long Thanh is expected to receive the

investment certificate in 2016.

With such investments, the company is exposed to operating risks both in terms of project schedule and cost control,

thus the effect of which might deter the company from achieving planned revenue and return.

The Company has focused on project management and assigned project team, comprising of experts and experienced

management to follow up on the progress and solve any possible issues in order to ensure that the project will not

face any delays or cost overruns. The project team also arranges a weekly meeting to report on the progress of the

project to the management.

Major Shareholder risk

As at 31 December 2015, the largest group of shareholders is under Amata Group, which holds 683,264,780 shares

or approximately 73 percent. Amata Corp and its subsidiaries, the current major shareholders of the Company, will

assign representatives to participate in the Company’s management team as well as to be directors with authorized

signatories.

The concentration of the controlling power enables Amata Corp to be able to determine policies and control management

of the Company through manipulating decision making in several topics such as committee selection, dividend

payments, or other business transactions. However, Amata Corp’s interest might be in conflict with that of other

shareholders. Other shareholders cannot violate the decision except for particular cases that require more than

three-fourths votes from shareholder meeting or cases that major shareholders have owned interest in the issue and

are exempted from the vote.

However, to create transparency and balance the managing power, the Company has created a proper governance

structure that clearly delegates power to management and committee. In addition, there must be 4 out of 9 board

members to be independent directors in order to counterbalance decision making power of the Board of Directors

before proposing to shareholders.

Financial Risks The Company is a holding company with investments in other businesses

As a holding company, the Company’s cash flows and performance are dependent on the receipt of dividends from

its subsidiary, which is Amata Vietnam. The subsidiary has business risks that may impact on its individual financial

performance under Vietnamese regulations and Vietnamese Accounting Standards (VAS) and may result in

lower-than-expected dividends, which will subsequently have the same impact on the Company as the dividend payout

is based on the net profit appearing on individual financial statement, and not at consolidated level.

In addition, according to the Public Limited Company Act 1992 regarding dividend payout policy, no dividend shall be

paid out of the Company other than profit. The Company can only pay dividends to its shareholders only if retained

earnings is at a profit. Moreover, dividends are also bounded by restrictions or covenants contained in each company’s

debt instruments and credit agreements.

In order to mitigate risks, Amata Vietnam is required to prepare an annual budget plan, which will be reviewed and

approved by the Board of Directors. The Company has complete control over its subsidiary as all board members of

Amata Vietnam are also members of the Board of Directors of the Company. In addition, the management meeting

is held on a weekly basis to closely monitor and evaluate business performance in order to identify and effectively

manage risks on a timely basis.

Foreign Exchange Risk

Main sources of revenues and costs of industrial estate businesses in Vietnam from land lease, ready built factory

and commercial rental services, and the infrastructure and other facility services are settled in VND currency. Despite

the price reference for initial quotation to customers is in US Dollar (USD), the official quotation is still in VND. Therefore,

the company’s business is inherently exposed to the USD/VND currency risk at a minimal level. From the statistical

data between the year 2010 and 2012, Vietnam experienced the depreciation of VND value over time, thus could

Page 55: VietNAm- the New PhAseamatav.listedcompany.com/misc/ar/20160418-amatav-ar2015-en-02.… · 18/4/2016  · Analysis : MD & A 137 Report on the Board of Directors’ Responsibilities

lead to an upside risk to the revenue of the Company.

The consolidated financial statements are presented in Thai Baht (THB) currency. However, the local statutory requires

Amata Vietnam, its foreign subsidiary, to present its financial statements in VND, its local currency. Therefore, when

assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the home currency of the reporting entity

according to the accounting policy, the Company is also exposed to the translation risk.

Despite the minimal exposure to the foreign exchange risk in day-to-day operations, the Company is aware of such

risk and attempt to prudently manage its currency risk, especially the devaluation of VND, through monitoring the

foreign exchange movement on a regular basis and reduce the gap between the contract booking (official quotation

issued) and the land transfer. With respect to the dividend payment, Amata Vietnam pays the dividends to the Company

in VND, therefore, it may subject to exchange rate risk. However, the transaction will be settled within a day so there

should be minimal effect from exchange rate exposure.

As the Company reports its functional currency according to the Thai Financial Reporting Standards (TFRS) in THB,

the translation effect between VND and THB is reported in the comprehensive income statement at an exchange gain

of Baht 72.8 million, which is accounted for 9% of total revenue.

On top of that, the Company also conducts the research, plans to enhance their return to overcome the challenge

from the depreciation of VND and controls such risk within their manageable limit.

Dividend payout risk from the discrepancy between Vietnamese and Thai accounting standard

As Amata Vietnam is established under Vietnamese regulations, Amata Vietnam needs to follow Vietnamese Accounting

Standard (VAS), while the Company, which holds 89.99% stake in Amata Vietnam, is registered as a listed company

under Thai regulations which follow Thai Financial Reporting Standard (TFRS). The financial performance reported

in Amata Vietnam’s individual financial statements and that reported in the Company’s consolidated one will have

some discrepancies due to the difference in accounting standard in terms of recognition of sales and cost from real

estate sales. For VAS, Amata Vietnam has to amortize revenue from the sale of real estate over the remaining

leasehold periods to match the lease schedule. On the other hand, under TFRS, the revenue from long term lease

can be wholly recognized at once because the contractual rights and obligations have already transferred to customers.

For investors, this might affect their analysis on the Company, especially in terms of dividend capacity which has to

be analyzed from Amata Vietnam financial statements in which revenue and profit at the beginning period will be

lower than that of the Company. For the year ended 2015, Amata Vietnam reports net profit of VND 119,562 million

or Baht 185.8 million, while the Company reports net profit attributable to equity holders of the Company in its

consolidated financial statements at Baht 121.4 million. Therefore, investors should understand the differences in

order to analyze financial information and ability to pay dividends.

Capital sufficiency risk

With its expansion plan to invest in Amata City Long Thanh project, the Company requires significant funding at

appropriate cost to satisfy investment in its expansion and provide its flexibility for its operations.

The ability to raise fund or refinance its debt and get access to capital market is one of a key factors that impact all

new and ongoing projects. The insufficient funding could stretch out the duration of a project or increase the cost of

fund, which in turn could lead to liquidity crunch problem and impact overall return and margin on the project.

However, the Company will progressively invest in this project. The initial investment will include the development of

infrastructure and land compensation expenses. As government will be responsible for the land compensation expenses,

the amount paid will be settled through raw land rental exemption. Therefore, the development of infrastructure

expenses will happen only when the Company book land sale and transfer the right to customers.

In addition, the Company expects to invest prudently considering its source of capital and its current capital structure

in order to maintain financial ratios such as net interest-bearing debt to equity ratio or interest coverage ratio at an

appropriate level in order to secure sufficient and suitable funds for the project expansions. As of 31 December 2015,

the total long term loan accounted as 6% of total assets and the net interest-bearing debt to equity ratio was 0.31 to

1 times with cash balance of Baht 1,689 million. The Company constantly monitors its financial position, current debt

level and cash on hand whether it has enough funding to finance all projects in order to minimize the financial risk.

DIVIDEND POLICY

The annual dividend payment needs to obtain the approval from the shareholders’ meeting except the interim dividends

for which the Board of Directors can use their discretion to do so considering the company’s sound profitability. Any interim

dividend payment decision shall be reported to the shareholders in the subsequent meeting.

Dividend policy of Amata VN PCLThe company intends to pay the dividend not less than 40% of net profits after tax and legal reserves of unconsolidated

financial statement. However, the Board of Directors will make decisions regarding dividend payment for the greatest

benefits to shareholders. To illustrate, retaining profits for the purpose of future capital expansion or debt repayment or

working capital management may be more prefer able to dividend payment in some cases.

Dividend policy of Amata (Vietnam) Joint Stock CompanyAmata Vietnam intends to pay dividend not less than 50% of net profits after tax and legal reserves of unconsolidated

financial statement in compliance with the Vietnamese accounting standard. However, the Board of Directors of Amata

Vietnam and/or shareholders of Amata Vietnam can adjust the company’s dividend policy as appropriate depening upon

the business conditions such as the Amata Vietnam’s investment plan to expand their business.

In compliance with the Vietnamese accounting standard, Amata Vietnam’s financial statement may contain some differences

from those following the Thai accounting standard. Hence the net profit of Amata Vietnam is different from what is reported

in the consolidated financial statement of the company as are sult of the accounting differences about revenue and expense

recognition in two countries. Although Amata Vietnam collects the lump sum rent on one time basis at the beginning of

land lease contract, the Vietnamese accounting standard requires the company to recognize the revenue and expense

gradually over land lease period. On the other hand, the Thai accouting standard allows the booking of lump sum revenue

and expense on one time basis at the beginning of lease period. As a result of the two accounting methods, the net profit

of company under the Vietnamese accounting standard is lower than that of Thai. Further to the dividend policy of Amata

Vietnam, the company intends to pay based on net profit safter tax and legal reserves under the Vietnamese accounting

standard.

Additionally, the Vietnamese regulation allows more flexibility for companies to pay dividend in term of other assets, not

limited to only cash or stock term. In contrast, only cash or stock dividend is permissible by Thai law. Therefore, if Amata

Vietnam decides to pay dividend neither in cash nor stock term, this could result in lower company’s cash dividend available

for shareholders.

Dividend policy of Amata City Long Thanh Joint Stock CompanyThe company will determine the dividend policy of Amata City Long Thanh JSC to be aligned with that of the Amata

Vietnam. Also the company, on behalf of the direct and indirect shareholders, who gain the controlling interests over Amata

City Long Thanh JSC has no policy to let Amata City Long Thanh JSC pay dividend in other asset terms apart from cash

or stock unless it is necessary to do so.

companies firmly believes in the rights of the shareholders to consider the most qualified people to act on their behalf

with information important and crucial to conducting his/her duties and guidelines for good corporate governance. The

in the market. The transactions must be presented to the Audit Committee on a quarterly basis. The Audit

Committee will review and comment on the appropriateness of making such transaction entry if it is under a

normal commercial transaction. If an abnormal transaction is found, it will be presented to the Audit Committee

Information Systems and Data Communications

The Company and its subsidiaries’ information system covers the entire enterprise: the financial reporting and operational

units. Regulations are used to control and ensure an effectiveness in communication to achieve the objectives and

goals of the organization. The communication of such information to those involved is essential to ensure the

effectiveness of the internal control system.

The Company and its subsidiaries have provided important and sufficient information to help the Committee

make decisions especially when the data is significant, and will deliver an invitation letter for meeting with

supporting documents at least seven days prior to the meeting so that the Committee have sufficient time to

study unless there are urgent needs in which the documents cannot be delivered beforehand.

The Company and its subsidiaries are to record the minutes in details. This is crucial for the Committee to make

decisions. The minutes also record questions, comments and observations of the Committee on the matters

being considered including the opinion of the directors at the meeting.

The Company and its subsidiaries will store documents, accounting records and all accounts documents in

categories for easy review. The accounting policies of the Company and its subsidiaries are applied in accordance

with the core business of the Company and its subsidiary and not contrary to the generally accepted accounting

principles.

Tracking system

The Company and its subsidiaries follow up the work that is carried out regularly. This includes continuous reviews

and amendment of the internal control system to comply with changing circumstances and resolve the defects in a

timely manner. Details are as follows.

The Company and its subsidiaries have assessed the internal control system based on performance regularly.

This is to consider if the results of the operation are different from the goal set and to offer practical guidance if

needed so that the Company and its subsidiaries will continue to improve within a reasonable period.

Company), does not appoint an internal auditor of the company. However, a subsidiary of the Company has

appointed an internal auditor to audit the operations of all departments of the company and report directly to the

Audit Committee , the Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director of the Company so that the Management

can resolve any urgent risk problem immediately and also will receive an evaluation from the Audit Committee .

auditors and the Audit Committee .

internal control issues to the Company’s Board of Directors on quarterly basis. As of now the Company’s Board of

Directors and Management have an opinion that internal control of Amata Vietnam is sufficient and appropriate for

the size of the business and the current circumstances of Amata Vietnam. The Company’s Board of Directors is aware

of the risk control of the Company and take appropriate measures to mitigate risks and continue to improve the control

system to be more efficient.

g) Non-controlling interests represent the portion of profit or loss and net assets of the subsidiaries that are not held by the Company and are presented separately in the consolidated profit or loss and in shareholder’s equity of the consolidated statement of financial position.

2.3 The separate financial statements present investments in subsidiary companies under the cost method.

3. New financial reporting standards Below is a summary of financial reporting standards that became effective in the current accounting year and those

that will become effective in the future.

(a) Financial reporting standard that became effective in the current year

The Company and its subsidiaries have adopted the revised (revised 2014) and new financial reporting standards issued by the Federation of Accounting Professions which became effective for fiscal years beginning on or after 1 January 2015. These financial reporting standards were aimed at alignment with the corresponding International Financial Reporting Standards, with most of the changes directed towards revision of wording and terminology, and provision of interpretations and accounting guidance to users of standards. The adoption of these financial reporting standards did not have any significant impact on the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. However, some of these standards involve changes to key principles, which are summarised below:

TAS 19 (revised 2014) Employee Benefits

This revised standard requires that the entity recognise actuarial gains and losses immediately in other comprehensive income while the former standard allowed the entity to recognise such gains and losses immediately in either profit or loss or other comprehensive income, or to recognise them gradually in profit or loss.

This revised standard does not have any impact on the financial statements as the Company already recognise actuarial gains and losses immediately in other comprehensive income.

TFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements

TFRS 10 prescribes requirements for the preparation of consolidated financial statements and replaces the content of TAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements dealing with consolidated financial statements. This standard changes the principles used in considering whether control exists. Under this standard, an investor is deemed to have control over an investee if it has rights, or is exposed, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and it has the ability to direct the activities that affect the amount of its returns, even if it holds less than half of the shares or voting rights. This important change requires the management to exercise a lot of judgement when reviewing whether the Company and its subsidiaries have control over investees and determining which entities have to be included in preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

This standard does not have any impact on the Company’s and its subsidiaries financial statements.

TFRS 11 Joint Arrangements

TFRS 11 supersedes TAS 31 Interests in Joint Ventures. This standard requires an entity investing in any other entity to determine whether the entity and other investors have joint control in the investment. When joint control exists, there is deemed to be a joint arrangement and the entity then needs to apply judgement to assess whether the joint arrangement is a joint operation or a joint venture and to account for the interest in the investment in a manner appropriate to the type of joint arrangement. If it is a joint operation, the entity is to recognise its shares of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses of the joint operation, in proportion to its interest, in its separate financial statements. If it is a joint venture, the entity is to account for its investment in the joint venture using the equity method in the financial statements in which the equity method is applied or the consolidated financial statements (if any), and at cost in the separate financial statements.

This standard does not have any impact on the Company’s and its subsidiaries financial statements.

TFRS 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities

This standard stipulates disclosures relating to an entity’s interests in subsidiaries, joint arrangements and associates, including structured entities. This standard therefore has no financial impact on the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries.

TFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement

This standard provides guidance on how to measure fair value and stipulates disclosures related to fair value measurement. Entities are to apply the guidance under this standard if they are required by other financial reporting standards to measure their assets or liabilities at fair value. The effects of the adoption of this standard are to be recognised prospectively.

This standard does not have any significant impact on the Company’s and its subsidiaries financial statements.

(b) Financial reporting standard that will become effective in the future

During the current year, the Federation of Accounting Professions issued a number of the revised (revised 2015) and new financial reporting standards and accounting treatment guidance which is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after 1 January 2016. These financial reporting standards were aimed at alignment with the corresponding International Financial Reporting Standards. The management of the Company and its subsidiaries believe that the revised and new financial reporting standards and accounting treatment guidance will not have any significant impact on the financial statements when it is initially applied.

4. Significant accounting policies 4.1 Revenue recognition

Revenue from real estate sales

Dividends

Dividends are recognised when the right to receive the dividends is established.

4.2 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash in hand and at banks, and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less and not subject to withdrawal restrictions.

4.3 Trade and other receivables

Cost included expenses directly related to real estate development and infrastructure systems (presented under to caption of “real estate development costs” in the consolidated financial statements).

4.5 Investments

a) Investments in non-marketable equity securities, which the Company classifies as other investments, are stated at cost net of allowance for impairment loss.

b) Investments in subsidiaries are presented in the separate financial statements using the cost method.

The weighted average method is used for computation the cost of investments.

4.6 Investment properties

Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and allowance for loss on impairment (if any).

Depreciation of investment properties is calculated by reference to their costs on the straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of 35-44 years. Depreciation of the investment properties is included in determining income.

On disposal of investment properties, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognised in profit or loss in the period when the asset is derecognised.

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into Baht at the exchange rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Baht at the exchange rate ruling at the end of reporting period.

Gains and losses on exchange are included in determining income.

4.11 Impairment of assets

At the end of each reporting period, the Company and its subsidiaries perform impairment reviews in respect of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an asset may be impaired. An impairment loss is recognised when the recoverable amount of an asset, which is the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and its value in use, is less than the carrying amount.

An impairment loss is recognised in the profit or loss.

4.13 Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Company and its subsidiaries have a present obligation 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.

4.14 Income tax

Income tax represents the sum of corporate income tax currently payable and deferred tax.

Current tax

Current income tax is provided in the accounts at the amount expected to be paid to the taxation authorities, based on taxable profits determined in accordance with tax legislation.

Deferred tax

Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts at the end of each reporting period, using the tax rates enacted at the end of the reporting period.

The Company and its subsidiaries recognise deferred tax liabilities for all taxable temporary differences while they recognise deferred tax assets for all deductible temporary differences and tax losses carried forward to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which such deductible temporary differences and tax losses carried forward can be utilised.

At each reporting date, the Company and its subsidiaries review and reduce the carrying amount of deferred tax assets to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised.

The Company and its subsidiaries record deferred tax directly to shareholders’ equity if the tax relates to items that are recorded directly to shareholders’ equity.

4.15 Fair value measurement

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between buyer and seller (market participants) at the measurement date. The Company and its subsidiaries apply a quoted market price in an active market to measure their assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value by relevant financial reporting standards. Except in case of no active market of an identical asset or liability or when a quoted market price is not available, the Company and its subsidiaries measure fair value using valuation technique that are appropriate in the circumstances and maximises the use of relevant observable inputs related to assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value.

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised within the fair value hierarchy into three levels based on categorise of input to be used in fair value measurement as follows:

Level 1 - Use of quoted market prices in an observable active market for such assets or liabilities

Level 2 - Use of other observable inputs for such assets or liabilities, whether directly or indirectly

Level 3 - Use of unobservable inputs such as estimates of future cash flows

At the end of each reporting period, the Company and its subsidiaries determine whether transfers have occurred between levels within the fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities held at the end of the reporting period that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

5. Significant accounting judgements and estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with financial reporting standards at time requires management

to make subjective judgements and estimates regarding matters that are inherently uncertain. These judgements and estimates affect reported amounts and disclosures; and actual result could differ from these estimates. Significant judgements and estimates are as follows:

Leases

In determining whether a lease is to be classified as an operating lease or finance lease, the management is required to use judgement regarding whether significant risks and rewards of ownership of the leased asset has been transferred, taking into consideration terms and conditions of the arrangement.

Allowance for doubtful accounts

In determining an allowance for doubtful accounts, the management needs to make judgement and estimates based upon, among other things, past collection history, aging profile of outstanding debts and the prevailing economic condition.

Impairment of investments

The Company and its subsidiaries treat investments as impaired where other objective evidence of impairment exists by using discounted expected future cash flow received from investments with the appropriate discount rate and related risks.

Buildings and equipment, investment properties and depreciation

In determining depreciation of buildings and equipment, and investment properties, the management is required to make estimates of the useful lives and residual values of buildings and equipment, and investment properties and to review estimate useful lives and residual values when there are any changes.

In addition, the management is required to review buildings and equipment, and investment properties for impairment on a periodical basis and record impairment losses when it is determined that their recoverable amount is lower than the carrying amount. This requires judgements regarding forecast of future revenues and expenses relating to the assets subject to the review.

Deferred tax assets

Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences and losses can be utilised. Significant management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and level of estimate future taxable profits.

Amata VN Public Company Limited and its subsidiariesFor the year ended 31 December 2015

Summarised information about cash flow for the year ended 31 December 2015 and 2014

(Unit: Thousand Baht)

Amata (Vietnam) Joint Stock Company

2015 2014

Cash flow from operating activities 386,057 179,817

Cash flow used in investing activities (388,617) (192,342)

Cash flow used in financing activities - (143,928)

Increase (decrease) in translation adjustments 10,462 (3,879)

Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents 7,902 (160,332)

11.4 In the third quarter of the current year, the Company invested VND 424,657 million (equivalent to Baht 712 million) in the ordinary shares of Amata City Long Thanh Joint Stock Company, a company established in Vietnam, and engaged in the industrial estate development (representing 35% of its call-up share capital). The remaining shares of Amata City Long Thanh Joint Stock Company were held by Amata (Vietnam) Joint Stock Company (representing 65% of its call-up share capital). Therefore, the consolidated financial statements included the financial statements of Amata City Long Thanh Joint Stock Company from the third quarter of current year.

11.5 On 11 November 2014, a meeting of the Company’s Board of Directors passed a resolution to approve the Company entering a bid at auction to purchase 7,319,928 ordinary shares of Amata (Vietnam) Joint Stock Company from an unrelated party in Vietnam, at a price of VND 32,500 per share, or for a total of VND 237,898 million (equivalent to Baht 361 million). The processes followed in order to make the purchase were completed in the second quarter of 2015, and as a result, the Company’s shareholding in the Amata (Vietnam) Joint Stock Company increased from 70% to 90% of all issued shares of Amata (Vietnam) Joint Stock Company.

The Company’s shareholding in Amata (Vietnam) Joint Stock Company has increased since the acquisition date. However, the management believed that the assets and liabilities of Amata (Vietnam) Joint Stock Company as at the acquisition date and 30 June 2015 were not significantly different. The Company therefore recorded the difference between the net book value of the investment as at 30 June 2015 and the selling price, amounting to Baht 103 million, under the caption of “Surplus from change in shareholding of subsidiary” in other components of equity.

The fair value of the above investment properties has been determined based on valuation performed by an accredited independent valuer. The fair value of property is not determined on the basis of market price due to the particular nature of the property and a lack of comparative information. The independent appraisers therefore used standard models to estimate the value of investment properties, such as the direct comparison method, discounted cash flow approach and the direct return estimation method, etc., which is the fair value measurement level 3 based on the fair value hierarchy. Key assumptions used in the valuation include yield rate, inflation rate, long-term vacancy rate and long-term growth in real rental rate.

Notes to coNsolidated fiNaNcial statemeNts (continued)

Amata VN Public Company Limited and its subsidiariesFor the year ended 31 December 2015

Credit risk

The Company and its subsidiaries are exposed to credit risk primarily with respect to trade and other receivables. The Company and its subsidiaries manage the risk by adopting appropriate credit control policies and procedures and therefore do not expect to incur material financial losses. In addition, the Company and its subsidiaries do not have high concentrations of credit risk since it has a large customer base. The maximum exposure to credit risk is limited to the carrying amounts of trade and other receivables and notes receivable as stated in the statement of financial position.

Interest rate risk

The Company and its subsidiary exposure to interest rate risk relates primarily to their cash at bank and loans. However, since most of financial assets and liabilities of the Company and its subsidiary bear floating interest rates or fixed interest rates which are close to the market rate. The interest rate risk is expected to be minimal.

Foreign currency risk

The subsidiary companies exposure to foreign currency risk arises mainly from bank deposits in foreign currency. As at 31 December 2015, the subsidiary company had deposit balance in US Dollar amounting USD 8 million (2014: USD 3 million).

28.2 Fair values of financial instruments

Since the majority of the financial instruments of the Company and its subsidiaries are short-term in nature, their fair value is not expected to be materially different from the amounts presented in the statement of financial position.

29. Capital management The primary objective of the Company’s capital management is to ensure that it has appropriate capital structure

in order to support its business and maximise shareholder value. As at 31 December 2015, the Group’s debt-to-equity ratio was 0.49:1 (2014: 0.24:1) and the Company’s was 0.66:1 (2014: 0.01:1)

30. Approval of financial statements These financial statements were authorised for issue by the Company’s Board of Directors on 16 February 2016.
