Operations and Financial Review (cont’d)
OTHER OPERATING INCOME
The Group’s other income increased to RM2.2 million in FY2013 from RM0.9 million in FY2012 mainly due to a
utility rebate obtained by the Group, compensation from a contractor for late completion of contract and increase

FY2012 of RM39.7 million. The Group’s effective tax rate was higher when compared to FY2012 mainly due to the
income tax paid for dividend income received during the year from foreign subsidiary companies.
FINANCIAL POSITION
Our non-current assets increased by RM4.8 million to RM165.8 million in FY2013. The increase was mainly due to
the acquisition of property, plant and equipment of RM11.1 million and installment paid and payable for purchase
of land of RM12.4 million coupled with the foreign exchange adjustment of approximately RM0.2 million and offset
by the depreciation charge of RM19.0 million.

31 December 2013. The trade receivables increased by RM4.5 million to RM62.5 million as at 31 December 2013
and inventories level increased from RM30.4 million as at 31 December 2012 to RM35.7 million as at 31 December
2013, mainly due to increase in sales activities and higher production volume. Other receivables increased to
RM1.6 million as at 31 December 2013 from RM0.7 million as at 31 December 2012 mainly due to advances
made to supplier to secure the raw material. Prepayments reduced from RM1.3 million to RM0.6 million as at 31
December 2013 mainly due to prepayment of Malaysian government levy for foreign workers.
Cash and cash equivalent included fixed deposits, cash at banks and in hand. Cash and cash equivalents increased
from RM64.0 million to RM114.0 million as at 31 December 2013. The net cash flows generated from operating

Our non-current liabilities were increased from RM12.2 million as at 31 December 2012 to RM13.0 million as at 31
December 2013. This was largely due to the increased in the provision of deferred taxation of RM0.8 million.
Current liabilities decreased by RM 4.8 million to RM44.9 million as at 31 December 2013 mainly due to lower
payables and accruals from RM47.9 million as at 31 December 2012 to RM39.3 million as at 31 December 2013
which offsetted with the increase in derivatives of RM0.3 million and also the increase in provision of taxation from
