INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO
AIG TECHNOLOGIES (MALAYSIA) SDN. BHD.
For the financial year ended 31 December 2020
Our opinion
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements of the Singapore Operations of AIG
Technologies (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd. (“the Branch”) are properly drawn up in accordance
with the provisions of the Companies Act, Chapter 50 (“the Act”) and Financial Reporting
Standards in Singapore (“FRSs”) so as to give a true and fair view of the assets used in,
and liabilities arising out of, the Branch’s operations in Singapore as at 31 December
2020, and of the results, changes in Head Office account and cash flows of the Branch’s
operations in Singapore for the year ended on that date.
The Branch is a segment of AIG Technologies (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd. and is not a
separately incorporated legal entity. The accompanying financial statements, which we
have audited pursuant to section 373 of the Act, have been prepared from the records of
the Branch and reflect only transactions recorded therein and comprise:
• the statement of comprehensive income arising out of operations in Singapore for the
year ended 31 December 2020;
• the statement of assets used in and liabilities arising out of the operations in
Singapore as at 31 December 2020;
• the statement of changes in Head Office account for the year then ended;
• the statement of cash flows for the year then ended; and
• the notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting
policies.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to
provide a basis for our opinion.
Independence
We are independent of the Branch in accordance with the Accounting and Corporate
Regulatory Authority Code of Professional Conduct and Ethics for Public Accountants and
Accounting Entities (“ACRA Code”) together with the ethical requirements that are
relevant to our audit of the financial statements in Singapore, and we have fulfilled our
other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ACRA Code.

Other Information
The Branch’s management is responsible for the other information. The other information
comprises the Statement by Chief Executive but does not include the financial statements
and our auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do
not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the
other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially
inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or
otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed,
we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are
required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
The Branch’s management is responsible for the preparation of financial statements that
give a true and fair view in accordance with the provisions of the Act and FRSs, and for
devising and maintaining a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide a
reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorised use or
disposition; and transactions are properly authorised and that they are recorded as
necessary to permit the preparation of true and fair financial statements and to maintain
accountability of assets.
The responsibilities of the directors of AIG Technologies (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd. include
overseeing the Branch’s financial reporting process.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to
issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level
of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SSAs will
always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud
or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could
reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis
of these financial statements.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO
AIG TECHNOLOGIES (MALAYSIA) SDN. BHD.
For the financial year ended 31 December 2020
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those
risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our
opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher
than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional
omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design
audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Branch’s internal control.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of
accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
Conclude on the appropriateness of the Branch’s management’s use of the going
concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a
material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt
on the Branch’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material
uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related
disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify
our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of
our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Branch to cease
to continue as a going concern.
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements,
including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying
transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
We communicate with the Branch’s management regarding, among other matters, the
planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any
significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
In our opinion, the accounting and other records examined by us relating to the Branch’s
operations in Singapore have been properly kept in accordance with the provisions of the
Act.

Revenue which represents income arising in the course of the Branch’s ordinary
activities is recognised by reference to each distinct performance obligation
promised in the contract with customer when or as the Branch transfers the
control of the goods or services promised in a contract and the customer obtains
control of the goods or services. Depending on the substance of the respective
contract with customer, the control of the promised goods or services may transfer
over time or at a point in time.
A contract with customer exists when the contract has commercial substance, the
Branch and its customer has approved the contract and intend to perform their
respective obligations, the Branch’s and the customer’s rights regarding the goods
or services to be transferred, and it is probable that the Branch will collect the
consideration to which it will be entitled to in exchange of those goods or services.
Specific revenue recognition criteria for the Branch’s activities are as described
below:

• Right-of-use assets
The Branch recognised a right-of-use asset and lease liability at the date
which the underlying asset is available for use. Right-of-use assets are
measured at cost which comprises the initial measurement of lease
liabilities adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the
commencement date and lease incentive received. Any initial direct costs
that would not have been incurred if the lease had not been obtained are
added to the carrying amount of the right-of-use assets.
• Lease liabilities
The Branch has elected to not recognised right-of-use assets and lease
liabilities for short-term leases that have lease terms of 12 months or less
and leases of low value leases. Lease payments relating to these leases
are expensed to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Current income tax for current and prior periods is recognised at the amount
expected to be paid to or recovered from the tax authorities, using the tax rates
and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance
sheet date.
Deferred income tax is recognised for all temporary differences arising between
the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial
statements except when the deferred income tax arises from the initial recognition
of an asset or liability that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss at
the time of the transaction.
Deferred income tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply when
the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax
liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or
substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.
The Branch accounts for investment tax credits (for example, productivity and
innovative credit) similar to accounting for other tax credits where deferred tax
asset is recognised for unused tax credits to the extent that it is probable that
future taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax credit can be
utilised.

Useful lives
The residual values, estimated useful lives and depreciation method of property,
plant and equipment are reviewed, and adjusted as appropriate, at each balance
sheet date. The effects of any revision are recognised in profit or loss when the
changes arise.
Property, plant and equipment and right-of-use assets are reviewed for
impairment whenever there is any objective evidence or indication that these
assets may be impaired.
For the purpose of impairment testing of assets, recoverable amount (i.e. the
higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an
individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are
largely independent of those from other assets. If this is the case, the recoverable
amount is determined for the cash-generating unit (CGU) to which the asset
belongs.
If the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated to be less than its carrying
amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount.
An impairment loss for an asset is reversed if, and only if, there has been a
change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since
the last impairment loss was recognised. The carrying amount of this asset is
increased to its revised recoverable amount, provided that this amount does not
exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of
accumulated depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset
in prior years.

Trade and other payables represent liabilities for goods and services provided to
the Branch prior to the end of the financial year which are unpaid. They are
classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less (or in the
normal operating cycle of the business, if longer). Otherwise, they are presented
as non-current liabilities.
Trade and other payables are recognised initially at fair value, and subsequently
carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Provisions for other liabilities and charges are recognised when the Branch has a
present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is more likely
than not that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and
the amount has been reliably estimated.
The financial statements are presented in Malaysia Ringgit, which is the functional
currency of the Branch.
All other foreign exchange gains and losses impacting profit or loss are presented
in the income statement within “other losses – net”.
Classification
The financial assets mainly comprise of deposits and other receivables. The
Branch classifies its financial assets to be measured at amortised cost.

Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on trade-
date, the date on which the Branch commits to purchase or sell the asset.
Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the
financial assets have expired or have been transferred and the Branch has
transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.
Measurement
At initial recognition, the Branch measures financial assets at its fair value. A gain
or loss on financial assets is recognised in profit or loss when the assets is
derecognised or impaired.
Debt instrument
Debt instruments of the Branch mainly comprise of trade receivables and loan to
related corporation.
The Branch assesses on forward looking basis the expected credit losses
associated with its debt instruments carried at amortised cost.

The Branch applies FRS 109 simplified approach to measure expected credit
losses associated with financial assets. Under this approach, the credit losses
expected over the life of the financial assets are recognised at each reporting
date.
A provisional matrix is used when calculating expected credit loss for trade
receivables. The provisional matrix applied by the Branch to calculate the trade
receivable bad debt provision is as follows :
Write-off
The Branch writes off financial assets, in whole or in part, when it has
exhausted all practical recovery efforts and has concluded there is no
reasonable expectation of recovery. The assessment of no reasonable
expectation of recovery is based on unavailability of debtor’s sources of
income or assets to generate sufficient future cash flows to repay the
amount. The Branch may write-off financial assets that are still subject to
enforcement activity. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written
off will result in impairment gains.

Estimates, assumptions and judgements are continually evaluated and are based
on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events
that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
The Branch’s tax charge on ordinary activities is the sum of the total current and
deferred tax charges in Singapore. The calculation of the Branch’s total tax charge
necessarily involves a degree of estimation and judgement in respect of certain
items whose tax treatment cannot be finally determined until resolution has been
reached with the relevant tax authority.
