ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Clearly, to enhance the competitive advantage of Singapore REITs In July 2005, Mr Lui Chong Chee stepped down from the Board after and to further grow Singapore as the REIT fi nancial centre, the serving for more than 3 years. We would like to thank him for his government announced in its Budget 2006 on 17 February 2006 invaluable contributions. We also welcome our new Director, Mr that tax exemptions granted to Singapore REITs will be extended Olivier Lim, from whose expertise we are confi dent we will benefi t. to include foreign-sourced interest and distributions by foreign trusts paid out of income or gains related to ownership of foreign We would like to thank our Board of Directors, Unitholders, business properties.

CMT, with its competitive cost of capital structure, conservative debt structure and low gearing ratio of 31.7 percent as at 31 December 2005, is well poised to benefi t from the increased gearing limit. Through leveraging on our six established value creation cum growth strategies, termed as the Six “i”s, we will continue to pursue yield accretive acquisitions in Singapore to grow CMT’s asset size to a higher target of S$5.0 billion to S$6.0 billion by 2008. We have now grown to a signifi cant size where we can capitalise on our scale to take on investment and development projects. This option is further facilitated by the government’s latest guideline change which allows REITs to take on development projects up to no more than 10 percent of their deposited assets. Over the medium-term, we will also explore how CMT Unitholders can benefi t from having an exposure in overseas assets so to provide them with a new wing of growth.

Retail sales and catering sales in 2005 rose by 12.4 percent and 6.4 percent, respectively, over 2004. This was not surprising given the general increase in wages and wealth that accompanied economic growth, and glowing tourism numbers that saw a record 8.94 million

76 > inspire Barring unforeseen circumstances, we believe that the economy is well on track to meet or even exceed the government’s forecast. This belief emanates from the sterling economic performance in the second half of 2005, which has created strong forward momentum for 2006. Indeed, among businesses and the population at large, there is widespread optimism regarding business conditions and the job market.

Further boosting the positive sentiments, the government’s recent Budget 2006 announcement carried a wide array of pro-business measures. In addition, the government intends to share its budget surpluses with all Singaporeans by way of cash and other bonuses to the tune of S$2.6 billion. Lower wage workers and lower income households are expected to benefi t the most, and this will create positive impact on domestic demand and consumption.

One of the main sources of growth for CMT and its associate is the acquisition of properties. The risk involved in such investment activities is managed through a rigorous set of investment criteria which includes accretion yield, internal rate of return, growth potential and sustainability, location and specifi cations.

INTEREST RATE RISK With the current global trend of rising interest rates, CMT and its associate proactively seek to minimise the level of interest rate risk by locking in most of our borrowings in fi xed interest rates. As at 31 December 2005, CMT and its associate have locked in 97.4 percent of CMT’s borrowings at fi xed rates and only the remaining 2.6 percent is at fl oating rates.

FOREIGN EXCHANGE RISK As the operations of CMT and its associate are currently based locally in Singapore, there is little or no foreign exchange exposure. CMT and its associate borrow in Singapore dollars from a special purpose vehicle, Silver Maple Investment Corporation Ltd (Silver Maple). Silver Maple issues foreign denominated notes and is able to obtain attractive spread by borrowing from the overseas markets.

CREDIT RISK Credit risk is the potential earnings volatility caused by tenants’ inability and/or unwillingness to fulfi l their contractual lease obligations. There is a stringent collection policy in place to ensure that credit risk is minimised, which is managed by the requirement of security deposits, usually in the form of cash or bankers’ guarantees of three months’ rent on average, and a vigilant monitoring system and procedures on debt collection.

TENANCY MIX To strengthen and complement the retail mix at the mall, the Beauty Hub on Level 3 was completed, providing one-stop beauty and wellness services for both men and women. The Beauty Hub contributed to an incremental rental revenue of over S$0.3 million per annum on a stabilised basis.

October saw the opening of the new Basement 1 food kiosks which include household names such as Ho Kee Pau and Lee Wee & Brothers’ Foodstuff with their very fi rst outlets in a shopping mall environment. On a stabilised basis, this is estimated to achieve an incremental rental revenue of over S$0.4 million.

PROMOTIONAL AND MARKETING ACTIVITIES In addition to the usual festive and school holiday programmes, 2005 saw a series of thematic sales-driven promotions and events at Tampines Mall.

In April ‘Health and Beauty @ TM’, organised with key tenants such as Guardian, Eu Yan Sang and The Body Shop, offered free derma skin analysis, make-overs, cardio blood pressure tests and health screening to shoppers. The event culminated in Body Shop’s fi rst-ever product launch in a suburban mall, involving beauty demonstrations and a radio show with celebrity DJs like Carrie Chong for Spa Wisdom.

The enormous success of the April event led to roadshows with other established brands including SKII and Shisheido. The latter organised a ‘Women with Confi dence Fair’ exclusively at Tampines Mall which met with an overwhelming response from over 200 women in a recruitment drive of under two weeks. Responding to shoppers’ feedback and tenants’ requests, a second event was held on the Health and Beauty theme in August 2005 featuring Jean Yip’s grand opening of its beauty hub, a new product launch for Bio Essence and Watsons’ introduction of pharmacist services.

At ‘Colours of Food’, held in July 2005 in conjunction with the Singapore Food Festival, 12 booths were segregated into colour zones by their food type. This event generated free publicity in major newspapers and on Channel NewsAsia, and increased shopper traffi c by approximately 19 percent or around 190,000 shoppers.

inspire > 139 ASSET ENHANCEMENT INITIATIVES In 2005, a strong testament to our ability to create value for our Unitholders was the successful unlocking of the value of Seiyu’s master lease, even before the acquisition of the asset was completed.

We will continue our proactive efforts to enhance Bugis Junction in 2006 by focusing on two key aspects: optimising the use of retail space in the mall and enhancing customers’ shopping experience. Planned work includes the reconfi guration of the areas taken back from Seiyu to create more specialty retail units and maximise the rental value. In addition, we are considering the conversion of some common areas into leaseable units and the rejuvenation of the food & beverage outlets at Malabar Block to tap the increased traffi c fl ow from the opening of the National Library next door. We also plan to provide additional escalators to enhance connectivity to the upper levels, improve the air-conditioning system, upgrade restrooms and install a car park guidance system.

TENANCY MIX Bugis Junction has a large and diversifi ed tenant base comprising 218 leases as at 31 December 2005. The tenant mix includes popular brand names such as Seiyu, Shaw Theatres, Kinokuniya Bookstore and Cold Storage.

Continuing efforts will be made to further improve the current retail offering through introduction of better brand names and tenant-mix to strengthen Bugis Junction’s market position.

PROMOTIONAL AND MARKETING ACTIVITIES Attractive lucky draws, free gifts, festive booths and a great line-up of performances heralded the start of the Christmas celebrations at Bugis Junction on 19 November 2005. As well as our own lucky draw, shoppers had a chance of winning Nissan March cars and were treated to performances from the Safri Boyz, Swiss Dream Circus and The Comedy of James G, while roving carol singers took the festive mood right into the premises of tenants.

Vendors for our Christmas Gift Fair and pushcarts along our air- conditioned streets were specially selected for the quality of their festive goods, and a structure in the fountain area at Bugis Square was designed both as a Christmas decoration and a gift booth.

Other exciting and well-publicised events such as MediaCorp’s ‘Super Host’ press conference, ‘Aeon Flux’ movie promotion and AXN’s ‘Kung Fu Hustle’ promotion drew very good crowds.

The fi nancial statements were authorised for issue by the Manager and the Trustee on 22 February 2006.

1 General

CapitaMall Trust (the “Trust”) is a Singapore-domiciled unit trust constituted pursuant to the trust deed dated 29 October 2001 (as amended) (the “Trust Deed”) between CapitaMall Trust Management Limited (the “Manager”) and HSBC Institutional Trust Services (Singapore) Limited (the “Trustee”). The Trust Deed is governed by the laws of the Republic of Singapore. The Trustee is under a duty to take into custody and hold the assets of the Trust in trust for the holders (“Unitholders”) of units in the Trust (the “Units’).

The Trust was formally admitted to the Offi cial List of the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited (“SGX-ST”) on 17 July 2002 (“Listing Date”) and was included under the Central Provident Fund (“CPF”) Investment Scheme on 13 September 2002.

The principal activity of the Trust is to invest in income producing real estate in Singapore, which is used or substantially used for retail purposes with the primary objective of achieving an attractive level of return from rental income and for long-term capital growth.

The consolidated fi nancial statements relate to the Trust and its associate (referred to as the “Trust and its associate”).

The Trust has entered into several service agreements in relation to management of the Trust and its property operations. The fee structures of these services are as follows:

Property management fees

Under the Property Management Agreements, property management fees are charged as follows:

(a) 2.00% per annum of the gross revenue of the properties;

(b) 2.00% per annum of the net property income of the properties; and

(c) 0.50% per annum of the net property income of the properties, in lieu of leasing commissions.

The property management fees are payable quarterly in arrears.

Asset management fees

Pursuant to the Trust Deed, the asset management fees shall not exceed 0.70% per annum of the Deposited Property or such higher percentage as may be fi xed by an Extraordinary Resolution at a meeting of Unitholders. Deposited Property refers to all the assets of the Trust, including all its authorised investments for the time being held or deemed to be held upon the trusts of the Trust Deed.

The asset management fees comprise a base component of 0.25% per annum of Property Value and a performance component of 2.85% per annum of gross revenue of the Trust for each fi nancial year. The base component shall be paid to the Manager out of the Deposited Property. Property Value means the aggregate of the value of investment properties.

The performance component is:

(a) (for the 60-month period from the Listing Date) paid in the form of units to be issued to the Manager in respect of Tampines Mall, Junction 8, Funan DigitaLife Mall, Plaza Singapura, Hougang Plaza Units, Sembawang Shopping Centre, Jurong Entertainment Centre and Bugis Junction; in the form of cash in respect of IMM Building; and either in the form of cash or in the form of units (as the Manager may elect, such election to be irrevocable and made prior to the fi rst payment of the performance component immediately following the acquisition of the relevant property) in respect of any other property to be acquired by the Trust; and

inspire > 167 Notes to the Financial Statements

(b) (after 60 months following the Listing Date) paid in cash.

When the performance component is paid in the form of units, the Manager shall be entitled to receive such number of units as may be purchased for the relevant amount of the management fee at:

(a) (in respect of Tampines Mall, Junction 8 and Funan DigitaLife Mall) an issue price of S$0.96 per unit, unless the market price (as defi ned in the Trust Deed) at the time of issue exceeds S$2.00 or more per unit, in which event, the units will be issued at a 25% discount from that market price; and

(b) (in respect of Plaza Singapura, Hougang Plaza Units, Sembawang Shopping Centre, Jurong Entertainment Centre, Bugis Junction and any other property to be acquired by the Trust) the market price (as defi ned in the Trust Deed).

The asset management fees are payable quarterly in arrears.

Trustee’s fees

Pursuant to the Trust Deed, the Trustee’s fees shall not exceed 0.10% per annum of the Deposited Property (subject to a minimum sum of S$6,000 per month) payable out of the Deposited Property of the Trust. The Trustee is also entitled to reimbursement of expenses incurred in the performance of its duties under the Trust Deed.

Based on the current agreement between the Manager and Trustee, the Trustee’s fees are agreed to be 0.03% per annum of the Deposited Property (subject to a minimum sum of S$6,000 per month).

The Trustee’s fees are payable quarterly in arrears.

2 Summary of Signifi cant Accounting Policies

2.1 Basis of Preparation

The fi nancial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Accounting Practice (“RAP”) 7 “Reporting Framework for Unit Trusts” issued by the Institute of Certifi ed Public Accountants of Singapore, and the applicable requirements of the Code on Collective Investment Schemes (the “CIS Code”) issued by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (“MAS”) and the provisions of the Trust Deed.

The fi nancial statements, which are expressed in Singapore dollars and rounded to the nearest thousand, are prepared on the historical cost basis, except that investment properties are stated at valuation.

In 2005, the Trust and its associate adopted the revised RAP 7 “Reporting Framework for Unit Trusts” issued in May 2005. The effect of adopting this revised RAP 2005 is set out in note 17.

Items included in the fi nancial statements of the Trust are measured using the currency that best refl ects the economic substance of the underlying events and circumstances relevant to the Trust (the “functional currency”). The fi nancial statements of the Trust and its associate and the Trust are presented in Singapore dollars, which is the functional currency of the Trust.

The preparation of fi nancial statements in conformity with RAP 7 requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements about carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised, if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods, if the revision affects both current and future periods.

2 Summary of Signifi cant Accounting Policies (cont’d)

2.2 Plant and Equipment

Plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis so as to write off items of plant and equipment, and major components that are accounted for separately, over their estimated useful lives as follows:

Furniture, fi ttings and equipment - 2 to 5 years

Gains or losses arising from the retirement or disposal of plant and equipment are determined as the difference between the estimated net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in the Statement of Total Return on the date of retirement or disposal.

2.3 Investment Properties

Investment properties are accounted for as non-current assets and are stated at initial cost on acquisition, and at valuation thereafter. Valuation is determined in accordance with the Trust Deed, which requires the investment properties to be valued by independent registered valuers in the following events:

• in such manner and frequency required under the CIS Code issued by MAS; and

• at least once in each period of 12 months following the acquisition of each parcel of real estate property.

Any increase or decrease on revaluation is credited or charged to the Statement of Total Return as a net revaluation surplus or defi cit in the value of the investment properties.

Subsequent expenditure relating to investment properties that has already been recognised is added to the carrying amount of the asset when it is probable that future economic benefi ts, in excess of originally assessed standard of performance of the existing asset, will fl ow to the Trust and its associate. All other subsequent expenditure is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred.

When an investment property is disposed of, the resulting gain or loss recognised in the Statement of Total Return is the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the property.

Investment properties are not depreciated. The properties are subject to continued maintenance and regularly revalued on the basis set out above. For taxation purposes, the Trust and its associate may claim capital allowances on assets that qualify as plant and machinery under the Income Tax Act.

Acquisition of investment properties is accounted for as acquisition of non-current assets.

2.4 Interest in an Associate

Associates are companies in which the Trust has signifi cant infl uence, but not control, over the fi nancial and operating policies. Investment in associates is stated in the Trust’s balance sheet at cost, less impairment losses. In the fi nancial statements of the Trust and its associate, the interest in an associate is accounted for using the equity method of accounting.

inspire > 169 Notes to the Financial Statements

2 Summary of Signifi cant Accounting Policies (cont’d)

2.5 Trade and Other Receivables

Trade and other receivables are stated at their cost less allowance for doubtful receivables.

2.6 Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and bank deposits.

2.7 Impairment

The carrying amounts of the Trust and its associate’s assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated at each balance sheet date.

An impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of Total Return whenever the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. An impairment loss in respect of investment properties carried at revalued amount is recognised in the same way as a revaluation decrease on the basis set out in Note 2.3.

Calculation of recoverable amount

The recoverable amounts of the Trust and its associate’s receivables carried at amortised costs are calculated as the present value of estimated future cash fl ows discounted at the original effective interest rate. Receivables with a short duration are not discounted.

The recoverable amount of other assets is the greater of their net selling price and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash fl ows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that refl ects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specifi c to the asset. For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash infl ows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

Reversals of impairment loss

An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount.

An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

2.8 Trade and Other Payables

Trade and other payables are stated at cost.

2.9 Interest-Bearing Liabilities

Interest-bearing liabilities are recognised initially at fair value less attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, interest-bearing liabilities are stated at amortised cost with any difference between cost and redemption value being recognised in the Statement of Total Return over the period of the borrowings on an effective interest basis.

2.10 Taxation

Taxation on the return for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognised in the Statement of Total Return except to the extent that it relates to items directly related to Unitholders’ funds, in which case it is recognised in Unitholders’ funds.

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.

Deferred tax is provided using the balance sheet liability method, providing for temporary differences between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the fi nancial statements. The temporary differences on initial recognition of assets or liabilities that affect neither accounting nor taxable profi t are not provided for. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.

A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profi ts will be available against which the unused tax losses and credits can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefi t will be realised.

The Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore (the “IRAS”) has issued a tax ruling on the income tax treatment of the Trust. Subject to meeting the terms and conditions of the tax ruling, the Trustee is not subject to tax on the taxable income of the Trust. Instead, the distributions made by the Trust out of such taxable income are subject to tax in the hands of Unitholders, unless they are exempt from tax on the Trust’s distributions. This treatment is known as the tax transparency treatment.

Individuals and qualifying Unitholders, i.e. companies incorporated and tax resident in Singapore, Singapore branches of foreign companies that have obtained waiver from the IRAS from tax deducted at source in respect of the distributions from the Trust, and bodies of persons registered or constituted in Singapore, are entitled to gross distributions from the Trust. For distributions made to foreign non-dividual Unitholders, the Trustee is required to withhold tax at the rate of 10%. For other types of Unitholders, the Trustee is required to withhold tax at the prevailing corporate tax rate on the distributions made by the Trust. Such other types of Unitholders are subject to tax on the regrossed amounts of the distributions received but may claim a credit for the tax deducted at source by the Trustee.

The Trust has a distribution policy where it is required to distribute at least 90% of its taxable income, other than gains from the sale of real estate properties that are determined by the IRAS to be trading gains. For the taxable income that is not distributed, referred to as retained taxable income, tax will be assessed on the Trustee. Where such retained taxable income is subsequently distributed, the Trustee need not deduct tax at source.

2.11 Issue Expenses

Issue expenses relate to expenses incurred in the issuance of additional units in the Trust. The expenses are deducted directly against Unitholders’ funds.

2 Summary of Signifi cant Accounting Policies (cont’d)

2.12 Revenue Recognition

Rental income from operating leases

Rental income receivable under operating leases is recognised in the Statement of Total Return on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, except where an alternative basis is more representative of the pattern of benefi ts to be derived from the leased assets. Lease incentives granted are recognised as an integral part of the total rental to be received. Contingent rentals, which include gross turnover rental, are recognised as income in the accounting period on a receipt basis. No contingent rentals are recognised if there are uncertainties due to the possible return of amounts received.

Interest income

Interest income from bank deposits is accrued on a time-apportioned basis.

2.13 Expenses

Property expenses

Property expenses consist of quit rents, property taxes and other property outgoings in relation to investment properties where such expenses are the responsibility of the Trust.

Included in the property expenses are the property management fees.

Asset management fees

Asset management fees are recognised on an accrual basis using the applicable formula, stipulated in Note 1. Where applicable, upon issuance of the units, the asset management fees are adjusted based on the market value of the actual number of units issued on date of issuance of the units to the Manager.

Trustee’s fees

The Trustee’s fees are recognised on an accrual basis.

Interest expenses

Interest expenses are recognised in the period in which they are incurred on an accrual basis.

2.14 Segment Reporting

A segment is a distinguishable component of the Trust and its associate that is engaged either in providing products or services (business segment), or in providing products or services within a particular economic environment (geographical segment), which is subject to risks and rewards that are different from those of other segments.

17 Changes in Accounting Policies

The accounting policies set out in note 2 have been applied in preparing the fi nancial statements for the year ended 31 December 2005.

The adoption of principles in FRS 28 (revised) Investment in Associates resulted in the presentation of the fi nancial position, results, movements in Unitholders’ funds and cash fl ows of the Trust and its associate in the fi nancial statements in addition to those of the Trust.

The adoption of principles of FRS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement resulted in the Trust and its associate measuring its derivative fi nancial instruments as assets or liabilities at fair values. Previously, derivative fi nancial instruments were not recorded on the balance sheet. Where a derivative or non-derivative fi nancial instrument is an effective hedge in a cash fl ow hedge relationship, the change in fair value of the hedging instrument relating to the effective portion is recorded in equity.

The adoption of principles of FRS 39 resulted in the Trust and its associate recognising all its derivative fi nancial instruments as assets or liabilities at fair value and decreasing the opening balance at 1 January 2005 of the hedging reserve by S$2,052,000.

Financial risk management objectives and policies

Exposure to credit, interest rate and liquidity risks arises in the normal course of the Trust and its associate’s business. The Trust and its associate have written policies and guidelines, which set out its overall business strategies and its general risk management philosophy.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the potential fi nancial loss resulting from the failure of a customer or a counterparty to settle its fi nancial and contractual obligations to the Trust and its associate, as and when they fall due.

182 > inspire Notes to the Financial Statements

20 Financial Instruments (cont’d)

The Manager of the Trust and its associate has established credit limits for customers and monitors their balances on an ongoing basis. Credit evaluations are performed by the Manager of the Trust and its associate before lease agreements are entered into with customers. Cash and fi xed deposits are placed with fi nancial institutions which are regulated.

At 31 December 2005 and 2004, there were no signifi cant concentrations of credit risk. The maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying value of each fi nancial asset on the balance sheet.

Interest rate risk

The Trust and its associate’s exposure to changes in interest rates relates primarily to interest-earning fi nancial assets and interest- bearing fi nancial liabilities. Interest rate risk of the Trust and its associate is managed by the Manager of the Trust and the associate respectively, on an ongoing basis with the primary objective of limiting the extent to which net interest expense could be affected by adverse movements in interest rates.

Liquidity risk

The Manager of the Trust monitors and maintains a level of cash and cash equivalents deemed adequate by management to fi nance its operations. In addition, the Manager also monitors and observes the CIS code issued by the MAS concerning limits on total borrowings.

Sensitivity analysis

In managing the interest rate risk, the Trust and its associate aims to reduce the impact of short-term fl uctuations on its earnings.

As at 31 December 2005, it was estimated that a general increase in one percentage point in interest rates would reduce the Trust and its associate earnings by approximately S$280,000 (2004: S$280,000).

Effective interest rates and repricing analysis

In respect of interest-earning fi nancial assets and interest-bearing fi nancial liabilities, the following table indicates their effective interest rates as at 31 December 2005 and 2004 and the periods at which they reprice.
