Property holding represents property investment and hotel operations.

Other investments (current) relate to principal-guaranteed structured deposits placed with financial institutions.

Net debt = gross borrowings less cash and cash equivalents less other investments (current) as defined in (2) above.

Net gearing ratio is net debt divided by total equity including non-controlling interests and perpetual convertible capital securities ("PCCS") where applicable.

Return on equity computed based on the net profit attributable to equity holders of the Company divided by the simple average equity attributable to owners of the Company (including PCCS where applicable, but excluding non-controlling interests).

NAV per share computed based on the equity attributable to owners of the Company (excluding PCCS where applicable, and non-controlling interests) and the number of ordinary shares in issue (excluding treasury shares) as at the end of each respective financial years.

(9) For comparative purposes, the number of ordinary shares for the prior years have been adjusted to include the effect of the issue of one bonus share for every ten (10) existing ordinary shares in April 2018.

Dividend Policy The Company does not have a fixed dividend policy. The form, frequency and amount of dividends will depend on the Company’s earnings, financial position, results of operations, capital needs, plans for expansion and other factors which the Board may deem appropriate. The Board will work towards a stable payout with a steady growth as appropriate, subject to the successful implementation of the Group’s business strategy and prevailing market conditions. Any payout is clearly communicated to shareholders via an announcement on SGXNET when the Company discloses its financial results. Company PDF p. 90
