(1) Financial Condition, Changes in Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Financial highlights for the years 2005, 2004 and 2003 are presented below:

2005 2004 2003

Revenues 363,292,196 476,529,916 104,372,231 Net income (loss) 308,126,038 204,321,895 (461,290,008) Total assets 2,077,583,141 1,819,600,263 2,333,087,398 Net worth 746,373,742 438,247,704 256,056,331 Issued & subscribed capital 1,072,000,000 1,072,000,000 1,072,000,000

Changes in Financial Condition

Gross Revenues remained robust in 2005 mainly on account of the continuing increase in Interest Income (from P51 Million in 2003 to P72 Million in 2004 to P272 Million in 2005). As a result, the Company was able to generate a Net Income of P308 Million in 2005 compared to P204 Million in 2004, and a Net Loss of P461 Million in 2003.

Total Assets increased to P2.08 Billion in 2005 due to the Company's investment in Atlas Consolidated Mining & Development Corp. The decrease in Total Assets from P2.3 Billion in 2003 to P1.8 Billion in 2004 was due to the sale of the Company's MRT Bonds in 2004.

Stockholders’ equity improved to P746.4 million in 2005, from P438 million in 2004 and P256 million in 2003. The increase in stockholders' equity was a direct result of the Net Income generated by the Company in 2004 and 2005.

Results of Operations

Infrastructure

The Company continues to maintain its infrastructure investment in the Metro Rail Transit (MRT) III Project through its 18.6% equity interest in MRT Holdings, Inc. (MRTHI). As of 31 December 2005, average ridership stood at about 430,000 passengers per day. Contract terms for Phase 2 of MRT 3 (from North Triangle, QC to Monumento, Caloocan City) are being finalized with the Government.

Property Development

The Company maintains a 15.79% stake in the North Triangle Depot Commercial Corp. (NTDCC), which owns the development rights on the airspace above the North Triangle depot. As of 31 December 2005, NTDCC has completed 20% of the construction of Trinoma (Triangle North of Makati), the commercial center atop the North Triangle depot. Ayala Land, Inc. (ALI) is the project manager for the commercial center project and will also be the operations manager of the commercial center.

The Company continues to maintain a 15.79% stake in the MRT Development Corporation (MRTDC) which owns the development rights over the airspace above the MRT stations and certain lot pads around the perimeter of the North Triangle depot. MRTDC continues to generate revenues from concessionaire rentals and advertising fees.

Natural Resources

The Company continues to negotiate with various groups who have expressed interest in pursuing the Bulacan Central Bulk Water Supply Project and the Bohol-Cebu Water Supply Project for the transfer of participating interests and/or transfer of all data and other properties relating to the Projects.

Pending the transfer of its petroleum and mineral assets, the Company continues to participate in the following Oil Exploration and Mineral Contracts:

Service Contract No. 6A Octon, NW Palawan 11.110 % Service Contract No. 14D Tara, NW Palawan 2.500 % Service Contract No. 41 Sulu Sea 1.147 % Service Contract No. 53 Onshore Mindoro 5.000 %

Service Contract (SC) 6A (Octon) and SC 14D (Tara) – The consortium is in discussion with the Vitol Group for a possible farm-in into the SC 6A block and with Basic Petroleum for a possible farm-in into the SC 14D block.

SC 41 (Sulu Sea) – The consortium has decided to proceed to the extended exploration term of the service contract. Basic Consolidated has been elected operator of the block.

SC 53 (Onshore Mindoro) (formerly, Geophysical Survey & Exploration Contract (GSEC) 98) - The Company is finalizing the acquisition of a participating interest in the new SC 53 awarded to LAXMI Organic Industries.

GSEC 75 (Central Luzon), GSEC Application (SWAN Block), GSEC Application (Southwest Palawan) and Marian Gold Project – The Company is in discussion with investors for the transfer of its various interests in these projects. Subject to obtaining the necessary government approvals, the Company anticipates to be able to effect the transfer of these assets within 2006.

In 2005, the Company complemented its natural resources-based investments with the acquisition of a 20% interest in Atlas Consolidated Mining & Development Corporation (ACMDC). ACMDC has been undergoing a major business consolidation and re-alignment of its various interests notably in mining, water supply infrastructure and property development. ACMDC expects these business centers to be its main revenue drivers for the next 5 years.

The Company and other creditors of United Paragon Mining Corporation (UPMC) have agreed to convert their receivables from UPMC into new UPMC equity as part of UPMC's capital restructuring program. UPMC's capital restructuring program has been submitted to the SEC for approval.

Other Investments

The Company’s other investments include minority interests in: (1) Philippine Seven Corporation (PSC), the Philippine franchise holder of the 7-Eleven chain of convenience stores; and, (2) Batangas Assets Corporation (“BAC”), a holding company organized for the purpose of investing in the Calabarzon area. The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Filipinas Energy Corporation (“FEC”), has not undertaken any business operation since its incorporation due to the deferment of the transfer of the Company’s petroleum and mineral assets.

For the year ended 2005, the Company posted a Net Income of P308 million compared to P204 million in 2004.

(3) Future Prospects

The Company remains optimistic on its future prospects on account of: (i) a strong property development portfolio, with NTDCC completing and opening Trinoma by mid-2007, and (ii) renewed vigor in the natural resource-based sector with ACMDC resuming its mining operations in late 2006 and new oil wells to be drilled in 2007.

(b) Interim Periods

(1) Financial Condition, Changes in Financial Condition and Results of Operation

Financial Condition - 1st Quarter 2006 vs, 1st Quarter 2005

Financial highlights for the 1st quarters 2006 and 2005 are presented below:

31 March 2006 31 March 2005 Revenues 86,483,798 237,669,617 Net Income (Loss) 78,599,187 218,727,452 Total Assets 2,075,216,885 2,556,961,958 Total Liabilities 1,250,243,956 1,874,049,645 Net Worth 824,972,928 682,912,313 Issued & Subscribed Capital 1,072,000,000 1,072,000,000

Changes in Financial Condition - 1st Quarter 2006 vs. 1st Quarter 2005

The Company posted lower Revenues of P87 million in the first quarter of 2006 compared to P238 million for the same period in 2005 due to a lower level of accrued interest income, which correspondingly resulted in a lower Net Income of P79 million in the first quarter of 2006 as against P219 million for the same period last year.

The decrease in Total Assets as of 31 March 2006 compared to 31 March 2005 is directly related to the corresponding decrease in Total Liabilities for the same period as the Company settled a portion of its long-term liabilities.

The Company's Net Worth as of the end of the 1st Quarter 2006 is higher at P825 million compared to P683 million as of 31 March 2005 on account of the net income generated by the Company during the intervening period.

Financial Condition - 1st Quarter 2006 vs. Full Year 2005

Financial highlights as of 31 March 2006 compared to 31 December 2005 are presented below:

5

31 March 2006 31 December 2005 Revenues 86,483,798 363,292,196 Net Income (Loss) 78,599,187 308,126,038 Total Assets 2,075,216,885 2,077,583,141 Total Liabilities 1,250,243,956 1,331,209,399 Net Worth 824,972,928 746,373,742 Issued & Subscribed Capital 1,072,000,000 1,072,000,000

Changes in Financial Condition - 1st Quarter 2006 vs. Full Year 2005

The Company continued to generate revenues in 2006 at about the same rate as in 2005, with the 1st quarter of 2006 showing a revenue of P87 million compared to P363 million for the whole of 2005. Similarly, Net Income of P79 million during the 1st quarter of 2006 remained on track to match, if not exceed, the 2005 full year net income of P308 million.

Total Assets remained relatively flat from the end of 2005 to the end of the 1st quarter as of 2006, while Total Liabilities showed a reduction of about P81 million during the same period as the Company paid off a portion of its long term debt.

The Company's Net Worth continued to improve from P746 million at the end of 2005 to P825 million at the end of the 1st quarter of 2006 due to the net income generated during the period.

Results of Operations

The Company continues to maintain its core investments in: (a) infrastructure, with its 18.6% equity in Metro Rail Transit Holdings, Inc.; (b) property development, with its 15.79% interests in the North Triangle Depot Commercial Corporation (which has completed about 30% of the Trinoma commercial center as of 31 March 2006) and MRT Development Corporation (which continues to generate revenues from concessionaire rentals and advertising fees), respectively; and, (c) natural resources, with its participating interests in various Service Contracts/GSECs (notably Service Contract 6A which is finalizing a farmout agreement with the Vitol Group) and its minority stake in ACMDC (which is finalizing agreements for the rehabilitation of its mines).

In June 2006, the Company boosted its property development portfolio with the acquisition of about 107 million shares in EDSA Properties Holdings, Inc. (EPHI). EPHI reported a consolidated net income of P772 million in 2005, 87.5% higher than its 2004 profit level, mainly due to the prolific sales of units at The Shang Grand Tower in Makati City which reached P830.6 million in 2005. Rental income likewise increased by 5.4% to P745.7 million in 2005 due to: (a) higher traffic level at the Shangri-La Plaza Mall which is attributable to the 2004 developments undertaken at the Mall including the completion of the Shang Cineplex, and, (b) the improvement in rental income from the EDSA Shangri-La Manila Hotel. Share in the profits of KSA, the owner of The Enterprise Center in Makati City, rose to P77.7 million in 2005 from P43.6 million in 2004 due to the 93% occupancy level of The Enterprise Center. EPHI's second 6 luxury residential project, St. Francis Towers, which will be linked to the Shangri-La Plaza Mall, the EDSA Shangri-La Manila Hotel and the Shaw MRT Station is scheduled to be completed before the end of 2008.

Meanwhile, the Company continues to negotiate with various groups, including Atlas subsidiary Aquatlas Inc., who have expressed interest in pursuing the Bulacan Central Bulk Water Supply Project and the Bohol-Cebu Water Supply Project for the transfer of participating interests and/or transfer of all data and other properties relating to the Projects. The Company’s other investments include minority interests in: (1) Philippine Seven Corporation (PSC); and, (2) Batangas Assets Corporation (“BAC”).

Beginning 2006, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Filipinas Energy Corporation (“FEC”) began setting up its business and organization.

Key Performance Indicators

For the comparative interim periods (31 March 2006 and 31 March 2005), the top five (5) key performance indicators of the Company are as follows:

31 March 2006 31 March 2005

Current Ratio 1.24 : 1 2.70 : 1 Current Assets 903,912,905 1,767,043,840 Current Liabilities 726,263,182 654,779,645

Equity to Debt Ratio 0.66 : 1 0.36 : 1 Stockholders Equity 824,972,928 682,912,313 Total Liabilities 1,250,243,956 1,874,049,645

Book Value per share 0.77 0.64 Stockholders Equity 824,972,928 682,912,313 Total # of shares 1,072,000,000 1,072,000,000

March 2006 figures for Current Ratio is lower compared to the March 2005 figures on account of the decrease in Cash and Temporary Investments and Short-Term Investments accounts, which were used to pay the Company’s Long-Term Debt, and a similar decrease in Accounts 7 Receivables due to the conversion of some receivables into shares of stock which were booked under Investments and Advances. Debt-to-Equity ratio decreased while Equity-to-Debt ratio increased due to the reduction of the Company's Total Liabilities with a corresponding increase in Stockholders' Equity on account of the positive Net Income generated by the Company for the comparable interim periods. Book Value Per Share is considerably higher at P0.77 in March 2006 compared to P0.64 in March 2005 due to the Company's positive earnings. For the 1st quarter 2006, the Company posted an EPS of P0.07 compared to P0.20/share in March 2005.

Between 31 December 2005 and the end of the 1st quarter 2006, the top five (5) key performance indicators of the Company are as follows:

31 March 2006 31 December 2005

Current Ratio 1.24 : 1 1.12: 1 Current Assets 903,912,905 901,074,292 Current Liabilities 726,263,182 807,228,625

Book Value per share 0.77 0.70 Stockholders Equity 824,972,928 746,373,742 Total # of shares 1,072,000,000 1,072,000,000

Earnings (Loss) per share 0.07 0.29 Net Income (Loss) 78,599,187 308,126,038 Total # of shares 1,072,000,000 1,072,000,000

The Company's key performance indicators continue to improve steadily over the interim period. Current Ratio increased due to a significant decrease in Current Liabilities. Debt-to-Equity ratio decreased while Equity-to-Debt ratio increased due to the net income generated by the Company during the 1st Quarter 2006, which raised Stockholders Equity, coupled with a reduction in Total Liabilities. Book Value per Share rose to 0.77 during the 1st quarter 2006 from 0.70 as of yearend 2005 as a result of the income posted by the Company during the interim period. EPS of P0.07 for the first three (3) months of 2006 is on-track to meet, if not exceed, the P0.29 EPS posted by the Company in 2005.

8

Beginning 2006, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Filipinas Energy Corporation (“FEC”) began setting up its business and organization and, as such, NO disclosure on performance indicators for any fiscal year and interim period can be made as yet.

(c) Discussion and Analysis of Material Events and Uncertainties

1. There are NO known trends, events or uncertainties that have or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on the Company’s short-term or long-term liquidity, EXCEPT that the possible sale of the Company's non-core assets may generate additional one-time revenues for the Company.

2. The Company’s internal source of liquidity comes, primarily, from revenues generated from operations. The Company’s external source of liquidity comes, primarily, from loans/financing obtained from financial institutions and, alternatively, may also come from the collection of its accounts receivables and issuance of additional capital stock.

3. The Company has NO material commitments for capital expenditures but is expected to contribute its equity share in the capital expenditures of its investee companies. However, the bulk of the funding for such expenditures will be sourced from project financing.

4. There are NO known trends, events or uncertainties that have had or are reasonably expected to have a material impact on the revenues or income from continuing operations, save as stated in paragraph 1 above.

5. There are NO significant elements of income or loss that did not arise from the Company's continuing operations.

6. There have been no material changes from 2003-2005 in one or more line items of the Company's financial statements, EXCEPT the following:

a.1. Revenues generally increased in 2005 on account of corresponding increases in: (i) Interest Income (from P51 Million in 2003 to P72 Million in 2004 to P272 Million in 2005); and, (ii) Other Income (from P53 Million in 2003 to P404 Million in 2004 down to P91 Million in 2005). As a result, the Company was able to generate a Net Income of P308 Million in 2005 and P204 Million in 2004, and a Net Loss of P461 Million in 2003.

9. Other Matters

Amendment of by-Laws

The Corporate Secretary stated that under the By-Laws, the annual meeting is scheduled on any day in May to be fixed by the Board. However, in view of the requirements under the Rules and Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for the holding of stockholders’ meeting, such as the setting of record date, and sending out of the information statements at least a specified number of days in advance, the Company invariably has to postpone the stockholders’ meeting. As the audited financial statements become available only around April 15 of each year, there was not enough time for management to prepare and send the necessary notices and reports for a meeting in May. He therefore suggested that the by-laws be amended, to re- schedule the annual stockholders’ meeting, to the last Friday of July.

Whereupon, on motion duly made and seconded, the stockholders unanimously resolved to change the date of the annual stockholders’ meeting from any day in May as may be fixed by the Board, to the last Friday of July of each year, and to accordingly amend Article II, Section 1 of the By-Laws to that effect. The following resolutions was approved:

“RESOLVED, as it hereby resolved, to amend Article II, Section 1 of the Company’s By-Laws to read as follows:

“1. The Annual Meeting of the stockholders shall be held in the principal office of the company or at any suitable place in Metro Manila on a date the last Friday of July of each year. (As amended on July 29, 2005)

10. Adjournment

There being no further business to transact, the meeting was thereupon adjourned.

ANGLO PHILIPPINE HOLDINGS CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Organization and Nature of Business

Anglo Philippine Holdings Corporation (the “Company”), a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the Republic of the Philippines, was incorporated and registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on March 13, 1996, as a holding company. The Company purchases or otherwise acquires, for the purpose of holding or disposing of the same, property of every kind and description, including the goodwill, stocks, rights and property of any person, firm, association or corporation and to generate all kinds of investment opportunities or fields of investments.

The Company started commercial operations on August 1, 2000 and its shares are listed in the Philippine Stock Exchange.

The registered office address of the Company is 6th Floor, Quad Alpha Centrum Building 125 Pioneer Street, Mandaluyong City, Philippines.

The Company continues to be adversely affected by the slowdown in the business and economic environment and has accumulated deficit of P320.6 million and P628.7 million as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

To counter the negative impact of the business and economic slowdown, the Company has undertaken, or plans to undertake, the following steps and measures:

a. Sell some or all of its non-core investments to generate cash;

b. Exchange/convert its petroleum equity interests into marketable or other more liquid securities, or sell the same;

c. Call on its accounts receivables or convert these into marketable securities or investments; and

d. Offer for subscription its unissued capital stock worth P928 million based on par value as of December 31, 2005.

The ultimate outcome of the foregoing matters cannot be presently determined. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects of the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The Company’s financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005 were approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on March 24, 2006.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Impact of the New and Revised Accounting Standards

The significant accounting policies are set forth to facilitate understanding of data presented in the financial statements.

Basis of Preparation The accompanying financial statements are presented and prepared in Philippine Pesos under the historical cost convention, except for certain financial instruments which are required to be stated at fair value.

Statement of Compliance The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the Philippines. These are the Company’s first financial statements prepared in accordance with Philippine Financial Reporting Standards (PFRS), where PFRS 1, First-time Adoption of Philippine Financial Reporting Standards, was then applied.

As allowed by the Notice of Amendments to Securities Regulation Code Rules 68 and 68.1 issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 25, 2005 for public companies, which include listed companies, for the year ending December 31, 2005, the Company is presenting a comparative format of only two (2) years for the statements of income, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the year to give temporary relief for the first time adoption of the more complex Philippine Financial Reporting Standards (PFRS). The requirement for three-year comparative presentation will resume for year-end reports beginning the year ending December 31, 2006 and onwards.

The Company prepared its financial statements until December 31, 2004 in accordance with Statements of Financial Accounting Standards/International Accounting Standards.

Use of Estimates and Judgments The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with PFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and 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 judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Although these estimates are based on Management’s best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized 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.

Judgments are made by management on the development, selection and disclosure of the Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates and the application of these policies and estimates.

Financial Assets and Liabilities The Company carries certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value, which requires extensive use of accounting estimates and judgment. While significant components of fair value measurement are determined using verifiable objective evidence (i.e., foreign

- 2 -

exchange rates) the amount of changes in fair value would differ if the Company will utilize a different valuation methodology.

Estimating Allowances for Doubtful Accounts Provisions are made for accounts specifically identified to be doubtful of collection. An estimate of allowance is generally provided for the receivables when collection of full amount is no longer probable.

Estimating Realizability of Deferred Tax Assets The Company reviews its deferred tax assets at each balance sheet date and reduces the carrying amount 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 utilized. Any deferred tax asset will be re-measured if it might result in derecognition where the expected tax law to be enacted has a possible risk on the realization.

Retirement Benefits The determination of the Company’s obligation and cost for pension and other retirement benefits is dependent on the selection of certain assumptions used by actuaries in calculating such amounts. The assumptions described in Note 14 include among others, discount rates and rates of compensation increase. In accordance with PFRS, actual results that differ from the assumptions are accumulated and amortized over future periods and, therefore, generally affect the recognized expense and recorded obligation in such future periods. While Management believes that the assumptions are reasonable and appropriate, significant differences in actual experience or significant changes in assumptions may materially affect pension and other retirement obligations.

Provisions and Contingencies The Company, in the ordinary course of business, sets up appropriate provisions for its present legal or constructive obligations in accordance with its policies on provisions and contingencies.

Adoption of New and Revised Accounting Standards The Accounting Standards Council approved in 2004 the issuance of new and revised accounting standards which are based on new International Financial Reporting Standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and revised International Accounting Standards arising from the improvements project of the IASB. The new and revised standards are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2005.

Accordingly, effective January 1, 2005, the Company adopted the following PFRS and Philippine Accounting Standards (PAS) which are relevant to its operations:

ƒ PFRS 1, First-time Adoption of Philippine Financial Reporting Standards, requires an entity adopting PFRS for the first time (a first-time adopter) to comply with each PFRS that has come into effect at the reporting date for its first PFRS financial statements. It also requires a first-time adopter to prepare an opening PFRS balance sheet at the date of transition to PFRS, the beginning of the earliest adoption to which it presents the full comparative information under PFRS. PFRS 1 grants limited exemptions from these requirements in specified areas where the cost of complying with them would likely to exceed the benefits to users of financial statements. It prohibits retrospective application of PFRS in some areas, particularly where retrospective application would require judgments by management about past conditions after the outcome of a particular transaction is already known. Further, it requires disclosure that explains how the transition from previous generally accepted

- 3 -

accounting principles (GAAP) to PFRS affected the entity’s reported financial position, financial performance and cash flows.

ƒ PAS 19, Employee Benefits, which prescribes the accounting and disclosure for employee benefits. The standard requires an entity to recognize a liability when an employee has provided service in exchange for employee benefits to be paid in the future and an expense when the entity consumes the economic benefit arising from service provided by the employee in exchange for economic benefits.

The standard also prescribes the use of the projected unit credit method in measuring retirement benefit expense and a change in the manner of computing benefit expense relating to past service cost and actuarial gains and losses. It requires the company to determine the present value of defined benefit obligations and the fair value of any plan assets with sufficient regularity that the amounts recognized in the financial statements do not differ materially from the amounts that would be determined at the balance sheet date.

Upon adoption of this standard, “Retained earnings” decreased by P22,130,522 as of January 1, 2004 due to the immediate recognition of transitional liability. “Accounts payable and accrued expenses” increased by P25,937,155 as of December 31, 2004 and “Pension expense” increased by P3,806,633 as of December 31, 2004.

ƒ PAS 32, Financial Instruments: Disclosure and Presentation, covers the disclosure and presentation of all financial instruments. It requires more comprehensive disclosures about a company’s financial instruments, whether recognized or unrecognized in the financial statements. New disclosure requirements include terms and conditions of financial instruments used by the company; types of risks associated with both the recognized and unrecognized financial instruments (price risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and cash flow risk); fair value information of both recognized and unrecognized financial assets and financial liabilities; and the company’s financial risk management policies and objectives. It also requires financial instruments to be classified as liabilities or equity in accordance with its substance and not its legal form; and

ƒ PAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement, establishes the accounting and reporting standards for recognizing, measuring and disclosing information about a company’s financial assets and financial liabilities. The standard requires a financial asset or financial liability to be recognized initially at their fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition, the company should continue to measure financial assets at their fair values, except for loans and receivables and held-to- maturity investments, which are to be measured at cost or amortized cost using the effective interest rate method, subject to test for impairment. Financial liabilities are subsequently measured at cost or amortized cost, except for liabilities classified as “at fair value through profit and loss” and derivatives, which are subsequently to be measured at fair value.

The Company also adopted the following revised standards in 2005:

ƒ PAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements, (a) provides a framework within which an entity assesses how to present fairly the effects of transactions and other events; (b) provides the base criteria for classifying liabilities as current or noncurrent; (c) prohibits the presentation of items of income and expenses as extraordinary items in the financial statements; and (d) specifies the disclosures about key sources of estimation, uncertainty and judgments management has made in the process of applying the entity’s accounting policies;

- 4 -

ƒ PAS 8, Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, requires changes in accounting policies and correction of errors be accounted for retrospectively. The allowed alternative of recognizing the cumulative effect in the current period has been removed;

ƒ PAS 10, Events After the Balance Sheet Date, provides a limited clarification of the accounting for dividends declared after the balance sheet date;

ƒ PAS 16, Property, Plant and Equipment, provides additional guidance and clarification on recognition and measurement of items of property, plant and equipment. It also provides that each part of an item of property, plant and equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the item shall be depreciated separately.

ƒ PAS 17, Leases, provides a limited revision to clarify the classification of a lease of land and buildings and prohibits expensing of initial direct costs in the financial statements of the lessors;

ƒ PAS 24, Related Party Disclosures, provides additional guidance and clarity in the scope of the standard, the definitions and disclosures for related parties;

ƒ PAS 33, Earnings Per Share, prescribes principles for the determination and presentation of earnings per share for companies with publicly traded shares, companies in the process of issuing ordinary shares to the public, and companies that calculate and disclose earnings per share. The standard also provides additional guidance in computing earnings per share including the effects of mandatorily convertible instruments and contingently issuable shares, among others.

ƒ PAS 28, Investments in Associates, reduces alternatives in accounting for associates in the separate financial statements of an investor. Investments in associates will be accounted for either at cost or in accordance with PAS 39 in the separate financial statements. Equity method of accounting will no longer be allowed in the separate financial statements, and

ƒ PAS 36, Impairment of Assets, prescribes additional guidance on making cash flow projections for the purpose of a value in use calculation and on using present value techniques.

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company will adopt the following new PFRS which is relevant in its operations:

ƒ PFRS 6, Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources, requires entities recognizing exploration and evaluation assets to perform an impairment test on those assets when facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount of the assets may exceed their recoverable amount.

Unless otherwise indicated, adoption of the new and revised standards did not result in a significant change and adjustment. Additional disclosures required by the new and revised standards were included in the financial statements when applicable.

Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents are carried in the balance sheets at cost. For the purpose of the cash flow statements, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and in banks, and other short term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or

- 5 -

less from date of acquisition and that are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

Receivables Receivables are recognized and carried at original invoice amount less an allowance for any uncollectible amounts. An estimate for doubtful accounts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable.

Investment in Associate Investments in share of stock of associates, where the percentage of ownership is 20% or more, or where the Company can exercise significant influence over the investee’s operating and financial policies, are accounted for under the equity method. Under the equity method, the cost of investment is increased or decreased by the Company’s equity in the net earnings or losses of the investees, adjusted of the straight-line amortization over five (5) years of the difference between the cost of such investments and the proportionate share in the underlying net assets of such investments, since the dates of acquisition. Dividends received are treated as a reduction in the carrying value of the investments.

Investments in companies over which no significant influence is exercised are stated at cost. An allowance is set up for any substantial decline in carrying value of the investment.

Property and Equipment Property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment in value.

Initially, an item of property and equipment is measured at its cost, which comprises its purchase price and any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to working condition. Subsequent expenditures are added to the carrying amount of the asset when it is probable that future economic benefits, in excess of the originally assessed standard of performance, will flow to the Company. All other subsequent expenditures are recognized as expenses in the period in which they are incurred.

Depreciation is computed based on the carrying values of the assets using the straight- line method over the following estimated useful lives:

Number of Years Transportation equipment 5 Office equipment 2 – 5 Communication equipment 2

The useful lives and depreciation method are reviewed periodically to ensure that such useful lives and depreciation method are consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits from those assets.

When an asset is disposed of, or is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits are expected from its disposal, the cost and accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any, are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss arising from the retirement or disposal is credited to or charged against current operations.

- 6 -

Impairment of Financial Assets Financial instruments are reviewed for impairment at each balance sheet date. For financial assets carried at amortized cost, whenever it is probable that the Company will not collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of receivables, an allowance for doubtful accounts is recognized in the statements of income. Reversal of allowance for doubtful accounts previously recognized is recorded when the decrease can be objectively related to an event occurring after the write-down. Such reversal is recorded in the statements of income. However, the increased carrying amount is only recognized to the extent that it does not exceed what amortized cost would have been had the impairment not been recognized.

Deferred Exploration and Other Charges All exploration costs and related expenses incurred prior to the start of commercial operations, reduced by incidental revenues, are carried as deferred exploration and other charges.

The costs and expenses for exploration activities which do not result in the discovery of petroleum or mineral deposits that are commercially productive are charged to operations after the project is abandoned and when management expects no further recovery.

Income Taxes Income tax on the profit or loss for the year is composed of current and deferred income tax. Income tax is recognized in the statements of income except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity, in which case it is recognized in equity. Current income tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted at the balance sheet date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

Deferred tax assets are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes and the carryforward benefits of net operating loss carryover (NOLCO) and the minimum corporate income tax (MCIT) over the regular corporate income tax. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realization or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted at the balance sheet date. A deferred tax asset is recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilized.

Deferred tax assets are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized. The carrying amount of the deferred tax asset is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced, if appropriate.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.

Foreign Currency Transactions Foreign currency transactions are recorded in Philippine peso based on the exchange rates prevailing at the transaction dates. Foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities are translated into Philippine peso at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. The resulting foreign exchange gains and losses are credited to or charged against current operations.

- 7 -

Retirement Benefit Costs The Company has a non-contributory defined retirement benefit plan covering substantially all regular employees. The cost of providing benefits is valued every year by a professionally qualified independent actuary. The obligation and costs of retirement benefits are determined using the projected unit credit method. This method considers each period of service as giving rise to an additional unit of benefit entitlement and measures each unit separately to build up the final obligation. Gains or losses on the curtailment or settlement of retirement benefits are recognized when the curtailment or settlement occurs. Actuarial gains and losses are recognized as income or expenses when the net cumulative unrecognized actuarial gains and losses for the retirement plan at the end of the previous reporting exceeded 10% of the higher of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets at the date. These gains or losses are recognized over the expected average remaining working lives of the employee participating in the plan.

The defined benefit liability is the aggregate of the present value of the defined benefit obligation and actuarial gains and losses not recognized reduced by past service cost not yet recognized and the fair value of plan assets out of which the obligations are to be settled directly. If such aggregate is negative, the asset is measured at the lower of such aggregate or the aggregate of cumulative unrecognized net actuarial losses and past service cost at the present value of any economic benefits available in form of refunds from the plan, or reductions in the future contributions to the plan. If the asset is measured at the aggregate of cumulative unrecognized net actuarial losses and past service cost and the present value of any economic benefits available in the form of refunds from the plan or reductions in the future contributions to the plan, net actuarial losses of the current period and past service cost of the current period are recognized immediately to the extent that they exceed any reduction in the present value of those economic benefits. If there is no change or an increase in the present value of the economic benefits, the entire net actuarial losses of the current period and past service cost of the current period are recognized immediately. Similarly, net actuarial gains of the current period after the deduction of past service cost of the current period exceeding any increase in the present value of economic benefits stated above are recognized immediately if the asset is measured at the aggregate of cumulative unrecognized net actuarial losses and past service cost and the present value of any economic benefits available in the form of refunds from the plan or reductions in the future contributions to the plan. If there is no change or a decrease in the present value of economic benefits, the entire net actuarial gains of the current period after the deduction of past service cost of the current period are immediately recognized.

Any transitional liability is either recognized immediately or amortized as an expense on a straight-line basis over 5 years from the date of adoption.

Earnings per Share Earnings per share is determined by dividing net income for the year by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year.

Interest and Other Income Interest income on bank deposits and temporary investments are recorded when earned and presented net of applicable final tax. Other income is recorded when earned.

Costs and Expenses Costs and expenses, not directly attributable to capitalizable projects, are recognized and charged to operations as incurred.

- 8 -

Operating Lease Payments Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are recognized in the statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

Related Parties Parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. It includes companies in which one or more of the directors and/or controlling shareholders of the Company either have a beneficial controlling interest or are in a position

Provisions and Contingencies Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present legal or constructive 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. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as an interest expense.

Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the financial statements but are disclosed in the notes to financial statements unless the possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote. Contingent assets are not recognized in the financial statements but are disclosed in the notes to financial statements when an inflow of economic benefits is probable.

Events After the Balance Sheet Date Post year-end events that provide additional information about the Company’s position at the balance sheet date (adjusting events) are reflected in the financial statements when material. Post year-end events that are not adjusting events are disclosed in the notes when material.

On January 18, 2001, the Company entered into a Sale Agreement whereby the Company’s interest in the future share distributions from the MRT 3 Project were sold to TBS Kappitel Corporation Pte., Ltd. (TBS) in exchange for bonds. The assignment represented a step towards the securitization of the Company’s interest in the future share distribution out of the MRT Project. The securitization process resulted in the receipt of asset-backed bonds and/or the proceeds from the sale thereof.

On August 7, 2002, the Company and certain members of the MRT 3 Project consortium, entered into various agreements with, among others, TBS and MRT III Funding Corp. Ltd. (MRT III). These agreements completed the securitization of the participating companies’ share in the equity rental payments of the Department of Transportation and Communications (DOTC) to MRTC under the Build-Lease- Transfer Agreement covering the MRT 3 Project. Asset backed bonds (the “MRT Bonds”) issued by MRT III represented the securitized portion accounting for approximately 77.7% of future share distributions from the MRT 3 Project.

In February 2003, August 2003 and February 2004, the Company was credited with the 9.5% coupon rate due from its Series 1 MRT Bonds. Proceeds from these coupon earnings were applied against the Company’s outstanding loan with the Land Bank of the Philippines, (LBP) which loan, among others, was used to fund the Company’s investment in the MRT 3 Project.

In October 2003, the Sellers formally mandated Penta Capital Investment Corporation (PCIC) to act as Lead Underwriter and Offer Manager for the secondary offering of the MRT Bonds. The US Dollar-denominated MRT Bonds were assigned a credit rating of “Aa” by the Philippine Ratings Service Corp. (Philratings).

Consistent with the industry practice, management expects that the Company, being one of the former partners, would be among those given the option to participate whenever the terms of the above contracts are extended or new contracts over the areas covered are awarded.

The recovery of these charges is dependent upon the success of obtaining farm-in arrangements with other companies, discovery and development of petroleum resources by the Contractor, and approval by the Department of Energy to extend the terms of the contracts or to grant new geophysical survey or service contracts.

The amounts recognized by the Company’s in the statements of income are as follows:

2005 2004 Current service cost P1,101,764 P1,150,970 Interest cost 3,189,781 2,655,663 Net periodic pension expense 4,291,545 3,806,633 Actuarial gain (54,662) - Total pension expense (income) P4,236,883 P3,806,633

- 16 -

Since the company is still in the process of finalizing its retirement plan, Present Value of Obligation (PVO) as of January 1, 2004 amounting to P22,130,522 is also the transitional liability and is presented as an adjustment to the balance of Deficit as of January 1, 2004.

Annual rates 2005 2004 Discount rate 11% 14% Expected rate of return on plan assets 8% 8% Salary increases 8% 8%

15. Income Taxes

The Company’s net deferred tax pertains to unrealized foreign exchange gain of P1,608,488 in 2005 and unrealized loss of P4,452,286 in 2004.

The Company’s provision for current income tax in 2005 and 2004 represents the 2% MCIT.

The reconciliation of statutory income tax rate to effective income tax rate follows:

2005 2004 Statutory income tax rate 32.50% 32.00% Addition to (reduction in) income tax rate resulting from: Interest income subjected to final tax and others 28.36% 28.92% Effective income tax rates 4.14% 3.08%

NOLCO can be claimed as deduction from taxable income for three years. As of December 31, 2005, the Company has NOLCO of P130,768,760 which is available up to 2006. Deferred tax assets have not been recognized on NOLCO because management believes that it is not probable that the carry forward benefits will be realized prior to expiration.

- 17 -

Due to the enactment of the new tax law, the net deferred income tax assets as of December 31, 2005 were measured at 35% and 30%, the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the assets are realized or the liabilities are settled [see Note 18a].

16. Earnings Per Share

17. Financial Instruments

Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables/payables and bank loans. The main risks arising from the use of these financial instruments are interest rate risk, credit risk and liquidity risk.

Interest Rate Risk The Company’s exposure to the risk for changes in market interest rate relates primarily to its long-term debt obligations with variable interest rates. Most of the Company’s existing debt obligations are based on fixed interest rates with relatively small component of the debts that are subject to interest rate fluctuation.

Credit Risk Credit risk represents the loss that the Company would incur if counterparty failed to perform under its contractual obligations. The Company has established controls and procedures in its credit policy to determine and monitor the credit worthiness of customers and counterparties.

Liquidity Risk The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility. Treasury controls and procedures are in place to ensure that sufficient cash is maintained to cover daily operational and working capital requirements. Management closely monitors the Company’s future and contingent obligations and sets up required cash reserves as necessary in accordance with internal policies.

18. Other Matters

a. Republic Act No. 9337 (“RA 9337”)

As part of its revenue enhancement program, the Philippine government has enacted certain changes to its existing tax law. RA 9337 removes Value Added Tax (“VAT”) exemptions on the sale of electricity, oil products, coal and natural gas, among others, but allows the VAT to be passed on to the consumers. It also gives the President of the Philippines the power to raise the VAT rate to 12% from 10% starting January 1, 2006, after certain conditions have been satisfied.

- 18 -

The Supreme Court of the Philippines has upheld the constitutionality of the new tax law, which became effective on November 1, 2005, after applicable publication requirements were met.

On January 31, 2006, in accordance with the provisions of RA 9337, the President of the Philippines raised the VAT rate from 10% to 12% starting February 1, 2006.

The new tax law increase corporate income tax rate over the next three years (2006 to 2008) from 32% to 35%. Starting in 2009, the corporate income tax rate will decrease to 30%.

In addition, the amount of interest expense disallowed as tax-deductible expense applied to the interest income subjected to final tax was changed from 38% to 42% starting November 1, 2005 and 33% starting January 1, 2009. b. Foreign Currency Exchange Fluctuations

The exchange rate of the Philippine peso vis-à-vis the US dollar decreased from P56.267 as of December 31, 2004 to P53.10 as of December 31, 2005. The fluctuation in the foreign currency exchange rates has decreased the outstanding balances of the foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities in terms of the Philippine peso.

The Company’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities (translated in US dollar) are as follows:

2005 2004 Assets $816,384 $3,174,387 Liabilities 24,124,213 11,187,881 Net foreign currency liabilities ($23,307,829) ($8,013,494) Peso equivalent (P1,237,645,720) (P450,895,267) c. Revitalization of the Minerals Industry Program

Previously, on January 27, 2004 decision, the Supreme Court (SC) ruled that the Financial and Technical Assistance Agreement (FTAA) provision of the Philippine Mining Act of 1995 is unconstitutional. However on September 13, 2004, President Gloria Arroyo issued Memorandum Circular No. 67 "Directing the Operationalization of the Mineral Action Plan for Mineral Resources Development," and Executive Order 270, "National Policy Agenda on Revitalizing Mining in the Philippines." These presidential memoranda basically lay out the major policy guidelines to revitalize the mining industry by giving more economic and political privileges to mining companies.

The Mineral Action Plan (MAP) effectively amended the Implementing Rules and Regulations of the Mining Act to simplify and fast-track the procedures of processing mining applications and issuance of permits to mining companies. It also aims to harmonize conflicting laws towards the Mining Act and downgrade the authority of local government units.

- 19 -

On December 1, 2004, the SC upheld the constitutionality of the Mining Act of 1995. Large investments are expected to pour in because of this SC decision. d. Reclassification

Where necessary, comparative figures have been reclassified to conform with changes in presentation in the current year.

SEC Form 17-Q 4 Report for the Quarter Ended March 31, 2006 Anglo Philippine Holdings Corporation

Debt to Equity ratio decreased while Equity to Debt ratio increased due to the significant net income generated by the Company during the 1st Quarter 2006 which correspondingly improved Stockholders Equity.

Earnings per share of 0.07, for the first 3 months of 2006, is directly attributable to the net income generated by the Company during the immediately preceding quarter.
