On 16 September 2013, PrimePartners announced, for and on behalf of the Offeror, inter alia, that in accordance with Rule 16 of the Code, the Offeror intends to make the Offer.

Copies of the announcements referred in this Section 1.1 are available on the website of the SGX-ST at www.sgx.com.

1.2 Offer Document. Shareholders should by now have received a copy of the Offer Document issued by PrimePartners, for and on behalf of the Offeror, setting out, inter alia, the terms and conditions of the Offer. Shareholders are advised to read the terms and conditions of the Offer contained therein carefully.

A copy of the Offer Document is available on the website of the SGX-ST at www.sgx.com.

1.3 IFA. The Company has appointed Deloitte as the independent financial adviser to advise the Unconflicted Directors in respect of the Offer.

1.4 Circular. The purpose of this Circular is to provide Shareholders with relevant information pertaining to the Company and to set out the recommendation of the Unconflicted Directors and the advice of the IFA to the Unconflicted Directors in respect of the Offer.

Shareholders should read the Offer Document, this Circular and the IFA Letter carefully and consider the recommendation of the Unconflicted Directors and the advice of the IFA to the Unconflicted Directors in respect of the Offer before deciding whether or not to accept the Offer.

9 2. THE OFFER

2.1 Offer Terms and Conditions. As set out in the Offer Document, the Offer is made on the following terms and conditions:

(a) Offer Shares: the Offer is made to acquire 61,000,000 Offer Shares, other than:

(i) Shares held in treasury – there are 201,000 treasury Shares as at the Latest Practicable Date; and

(ii) Shares already owned, controlled or agreed to be acquired by the Offeror and its Concert Parties1.

The Offer Shares represent approximately 10.57% of the issued share capital of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Offeror owns 218,883,673 Shares and the Offeror and its Concert Parties own 240,270,048 Shares in aggregate, representing approximately 37.93% and 41.64% respectively, of the Shares in the issued share capital of the Company.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Offeror has received IUs to accept and approve the Offer in respect of 66,481,844 Offer Shares in aggregate, representing approximately 11.52% of the Shares in the issued share capital of the Company. Accordingly, as the Offer is made to acquire 61,000,000 Shares, upon the IU Shareholders tendering the Shares covered by their respective IUs in acceptance of the Offer, the Offer will become and be declared unconditional as to acceptances.

If the Offer becomes or is declared unconditional in all respects, and assuming no new or treasury Share is issued or transferred between the Latest Practicable Date and the close of the Offer, the Offer would increase the aggregate shareholdings of the Offeror and its Concert Parties from 41.64% (240,270,048 Shares) to 52.21% (301,270,048 Shares) of the Shares in the issued share capital of the Company as at the close of the Offer.

The Offeror and its Concert Parties will be able to exercise statutory control over the Company and will be free, subject to a six-month moratorium after the close of the Offer, to acquire further Shares without incurring any obligation to make a general take-over offer for the Company;

(b) Offer Shareholders: the Offer will be made to all Offer Shareholders.

As prescribed by the Code, the Record Date on which the Share Register and the Depository Register is to be closed to determine the entitlements of Shareholders to accept and approve the Offer will be the 14th day2 before the First Closing Date. It is the Shareholders (not being the Offeror and its Concert Parties) as at the Record Date who are entitled to participate in the Offer and their entitlements will be determined in proportion to the number of Shares held by them as at the Record Date. Such entitlements are not transferable.

Each Offer Shareholder may only accept and approve the Offer in respect of the number of Shares held by it as at the Record Date. If any Offer Shareholder acquires any additional Shares after the Record Date but does not sell any of the Shares held by it as at the Record Date, it will not be entitled to accept or approve the Offer in respect of any of those additional Shares. If any person becomes a Shareholder after

1 Please refer to Section 3 of this Circular for details on the Concert Parties.

2 Or, if such day falls on a non-business day, the next immediately following business day.

10 the Record Date, it will not be eligible to participate in the Offer as an Offer Shareholder – it will not be entitled to accept or approve the Offer in respect of any Shares held by it;

Further information on the entitlement of Offer Shareholders to vote on and accept the Offer is set out in Schedule 6 to the Offer Document.

(c) Offer Price: the Offer will be made at S$0.16 in cash for each Offer Share.

The Offeror has no intention to revise the Offer Price of S$0.16, save that the Offeror reserves the right to revise the terms of the Offer in accordance with the Code if an offer which is, or is deemed under the Code to be, competitive to the Offer (a “Competing Offer”) arises. Accordingly, unless otherwise announced by or on behalf of the Offeror in the event of a Competing Offer, the Offer Price is final and will not be revised;

(d) Rights and Encumbrances: the Offer Shares will be acquired (i) fully paid, (ii) free from all liens, equities, mortgages, charges, encumbrances, rights of pre-emption and other third party rights or interests of any nature whatsoever, and (iii) together with all rights, benefits and entitlements attached thereto as at the Offer Announcement Date and thereafter attaching thereto, including the right to receive and retain all dividends, other distributions and return of capital (if any) which may be announced, declared, paid or made by the Company on or after the Offer Announcement Date.

Any Offer Shareholder who tenders its Shares in acceptance of the Offer will be deemed to have unconditionally and irrevocably warranted that it sells such Shares as or on behalf of the beneficial owner(s) thereof in the terms set out in Sections 2.1(d)(i) to (iii) above.

If any dividend, other distribution or return of capital is announced, declared, paid or made by the Company on or after the Offer Announcement Date, the Offeror reserves the right to reduce the Offer Price by the amount of such dividend, other distribution or return of capital; and

(e) Offer Conditions: the Offer will be subject to the following conditions:

(i) the Offeror having received, by the close of the Offer, approval of the Offer by the Offer Shareholders representing more than 50% of the valid votes received from Offer Shareholders (the Offeror, its Concert Parties and their associates not being allowed to vote) (“Approval Condition”); and

(ii) the Offeror having received, by the close of the Offer, valid acceptances in respect of not less than 61,000,000 Offer Shares which, when taken together with the Shares owned, controlled or agreed to be acquired by the Offeror and its Concert Parties, will result in the Offeror and its Concert Parties holding more than 50% (to be precise, 52.21%) of the total number of Shares outstanding as at the close of the Offer (“Acceptance Condition”).

Accordingly, as noted in Section 2.1(a) above, as the Offer is made to acquire 61,000,000 Shares, upon the IU Shareholders tendering the Shares covered by their respective IUs in acceptance of the Offer, the Offer will become and be declared unconditional as to acceptances.

The Offer will be unconditional in all other respects.

11 2.2 No Other Class of Shares or Convertible Securities. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Company:

(a) has only one class of shares in issue – the Shares; and

(b) has not issued any rights, options, warrants or other securities which are convertible, exercisable or redeemable into, for or with any Shares or other class of shares which remains outstanding.

Accordingly, no comparable offer need to be made for any other class of shares in the capital of the Company.

2.3 First Closing Date. Shareholders should note that the Offer will close at 5.30 p.m. on 28 October 2013 or such later date(s) as may be announced from time to time for and on behalf of the Offeror.

3. INFORMATION ON THE OFFEROR AND ITS CONCERT PARTIES

3.1 Offeror and its Concert Parties. Information on the Offeror and its Concert Parties as set out in Section 3 of the Offer Document is reproduced below. Unless otherwise stated, all terms and expressions used in the extract below shall have the meanings given to them in the Offer Document.

“3. OFFERORANDITSCONCERTPARTIES

3.1 Offeror. The Offeror is a limited exempt private company incorporated in Singapore in 1978. Its directors are GSK and CKN, who are wife and husband. Its principal activity is investment holding. It has a paid-up share capital of S$6 million. Its shareholders are the NSI Family.

GSK is the Executive Chairman and Managing Director of the Company and CKN is an Executive Director of the Company. Additionally, CWJ serves as the General Manager of the Company and Chief Executive Officer of Regency Specialist Hospital in (one of the two hospitals within the Group), while CWS serves as the Marketing Manager of the Company.

As at the LPD, the Offeror is the single largest shareholder of the Company.

3.2 Concert Parties. The Concert Parties of the Offeror consist of:

(a) the NSI Family;

(b) PrimePartners, the financial adviser to the Offeror in relation to the Offer;

(c) CWH, a former Chief Financial Officer of the Company and who had been assisting the Offeror in its preparation of the Offer; and

(d) (by reason only of the presumption under the Code of the existence of a concert party relationship between “close relatives”) the Extended Family Shareholders.

12 3.3 Extended Family Shareholders. The Offeror acknowledges that the Extended Family Shareholders, as shown in Schedule 1 hereto, are presumed to be Concert Parties as they fall within the definition of “close relative” under the Code and has accordingly aggregated the 10,806,253 Shares (1.87%) held by the Extended Family Shareholders as part of the 240,270,048 Offeror Shares (41.64%) held by the Offeror and its Concert Parties as at the LPD.

3.4 Rebuttal of Presumption and Implications. As with any other concert party relationship which arises by reason only of a presumption under the Code, the Offeror reserves the right to rebut such presumption in relation to any particular Extended Family Shareholder if and when the need to do so arises.

In light of the Offer being a partial offer (as opposed to a general offer), and in order to give certainty as to the scope of the Offer, even if such presumption is rebutted in relation to any particular Extended Family Shareholder:

(a) Shares held by that Extended Family Shareholder are not eligible as Offer Shares;

(b) the Offer will not be extended to that Extended Family Shareholder;

(c) any and all Shares held by that Extended Family Shareholder, if purported to be tendered in acceptance of the Offer, will not count towards the Acceptance Condition; and

(d) any and all Shares held by that Extended Family Shareholder, if purported to be voted in acceptance of the Offer, will not count towards the Approval Condition.

3.5 Restrictions on Acquisitions by Offeror and its Concert Parties during and subsequent to the Offer Period. As prescribed under the Code, the Offeror and its Concert Parties will not acquire any Shares (excluding Shares acquired by the Offeror and its Concert Parties via a rights issue and/or bonus issue without increasing their aggregate percentage shareholdings):

(a) during the Offer Period (except pursuant to the Offer); and

(b) during a period of six months after the close of the Offer, if the Offer becomes or is declared unconditional in all respects.”

3.2 Further Information. Schedule 2 to the Offer Document sets out further information on the Offeror, which is reproduced in Appendix 2 to this Circular.

4. RATIONALE FOR THE OFFER AND THE OFFEROR’S INTENTIONS RELATINGTOTHE COMPANY

The full text of the rationale for the Offer and the Offeror’s intentions relating to the Company as set out in Section 5 of the Offer Document has been extracted from the Offer Document and reproduced below. Unless otherwise stated, all terms and expressions used in the extract below shall have the meanings given to them in the Offer Document.

“5. RATIONALE FOR THE OFFER AND INTENTIONS FOR THE COMPANY

5.1 Rationale for Offer. The Offer is made to increase the shareholdings of the Offeror and the NSI Family to more than 50% and so that they may acquire statutory control of the Company. Noting the following statements made in the FY2013 Results Announcement, the Offeror believes that it will, with statutory control of the Company,

13 be in a better position to contribute to the Group meeting the challenges from increased competition in the healthcare sector in Malaysia, where the Group’s operations are principally based:

“Demand for private healthcare in Malaysia remains resilient driven by rising income levels. While growth has been encouraging over the last few years, the Group is mindful of new competitors in the two markets i.e. Malacca and Johor where the Group’s two hospitals operate.

In Malacca, Mahkota Medical Centre Sdn Bhd (“MMCSB”) will face a new competitor by mid-2014, with the opening of the nearby 300-bed Oriental Melaka Straits Medical Centre. In addition, two new hospitals, Hospital Pakar and KPJ Muar Specialist Hospital, which are in or around the vicinity of Malacca, are being built.

In Johor, the 120-bed KPJ Pasir Gudang Specialist Hospital, which is less than 3km from the Regency Specialist Hospital Sdn Bhd (“RSHSB”) began operations during the financial year. By 2015, there are expected to be three new hospitals in Johor, namely the 300-bed Gleneagles Medini Hospital, 390-bed KPJ Specialist Hospital Bandar Dato’ Onn and a 200-bed hospital by a Singapore investor and the Johor Royal Family. These new hospitals are expected to transform the healthcare landscape in Iskandar.

The Group is aware of the growing competition and challenges posed by the new hospitals. The new hospitals in Malacca and Johor are likely to increase competition for patients and bring further challenges in terms of manpower and talent retention for MMCSB and RSHSB. The Group will strive to continue delivering quality healthcare to its patients, specifically by recruiting more doctors and improving overall healthcare services and patient experience.”

The Offer also represents an opportunity for Shareholders to realise part of their investment in the Company and the Group, while continuing to participate and have an exposure in the future performance of the Company and the Group through their remaining investment (if they choose to retain such investment).

5.2 Intentions for Company. Presently, the Offeror intends to carry on the business of the Company and the Group of providing healthcare services and has no intention to introduce major changes to the business, including to redeploy the fixed assets of the Company and the Group or to discontinue the employment of the employees of the Company and the Group, in each case other than in the ordinary course of business5.

5.3 Listing Status and Compulsory Acquisition. The Offer, being a partial offer as opposed to a general offer, will not result in:

(a) either trading in the Shares on the SGX-ST being suspended or the Company being delisted from the SGX-ST due to a lack of public float; or

(b) the Offeror either being entitled or bound to exercise the rights of compulsory acquisition under Section 215(1) of the Companies Act. Neither would Shareholders be entitled to require the Offeror to acquire their Shares at the same terms as those under the Offer under Section 215(3) of the Companies Act.

5 Based on the Offeror’s present assessment of market conditions, operating circumstances and general economic and regulatory environment, over which the Offeror has limited or no control. As these factors change over the course of time, the Offeror reserves the right to review and consider its intentions as and when necessary.”

14 5. IRREVOCABLE UNDERTAKINGS

5.1 Irrevocable Undertakings. As stated in Section 6 of the Offer Document, the Offeror has received IUs from IU Shareholders to, inter alia, accept and approve the Offer in respect of 66,481,844 Offer Shares in aggregate, representing approximately 11.52% of the Shares in the issued share capital of the Company. Accordingly, as the Offer is made to acquire 61,000,000 Shares, upon the IU Shareholders tendering the Shares covered by their respective IUs in acceptance of the Offer, the Offer will become and be declared unconditional as to acceptances.

6. EXEMPTION RELATING TO DIRECTORS’ RECOMMENDATION

6.1 SIC. In its letter dated 13 September 2013, the SIC ruled that the following Directors, namely Gan See Khem and Chin Koy Nam, are not considered independent for the purposes of the Offer under Rule 8.3 of the Code, as they face irreconcilable conflicts of interest. Gan See Khem, who is the Chairman and Managing Director of the Company, is a director and shareholder of the Offeror. In addition, Chin Koy Nam, who is an Executive Director of the Company, is also a director and shareholder of the Offeror. Gan See Khem and Chin Koy Nam are therefore Concert Parties of the Offeror.

6.2 Scope of Responsibility. In view of the relationship between each of Gan See Khem, Chin Koy Nam and the Offeror as set out in Section 6.1 above and the potential conflicts of interests arising therefrom, Gan See Khem and Chin Koy Nam have been exempted by the SIC from the requirement to make a recommendation on the Offer to the Shareholders. However, they remain responsible for the accuracy of facts stated and opinions expressed in documents or advertisements issued by, or on behalf of, the Company to the Shareholders in connection with the Offer.

8. ADVICE OF THE IFA

8.1 IFA. Deloitte has been appointed as the independent financial adviser to advise the Unconflicted Directors in respect of the Offer. Shareholders should consider carefully the recommendation of the Unconflicted Directors and the advice of Deloitte to the Unconflicted Directors before deciding whether to accept or reject the Offer. Deloitte’s advice is set out in its letter dated 7 October 2013, which is set out in pages 22 to 47 of this Circular (the “IFA Letter”).

8.2 Factors Taken into Consideration by Deloitte. In arriving at its recommendation, Deloitte has taken into consideration certain factors, an extract of which is set out below. Shareholders should read the following extract in conjunction with, and in the context of, the full text of the IFA Letter. Unless otherwise stated, all terms and expressions used in the extract below shall have the meanings given to them in the IFA Letter.

“7. CONCLUSION

In arriving at our advice in respect of the financial terms of the Offer, we have taken into account the factors which we consider to have a significant bearing on our assessment which include the following:

a. Our analysis of the liquidity of the Shares indicates that the liquidity of the Shares especially the period after the Announcement Date should not in any way be relied upon as an indication of the future liquidity of the Shares. There is no assurance that the liquidity of the Shares will remain at these levels after the Offer closes.

16 b. The Shares have traded below the Offer Price in the period post the Announcement Date to the Latest Practicable Date. The Offer price represents a premium in the range of 32.4% to 37.1% during the last two years. We have also noted that during the last 5 years, the share price has not traded above the Offer price. c. We note that the market price of the Shares outperformed the benchmark indices (being FSSTI and MXASJHC). It is possible that the Offer is in part responsible for this rise and outperformance. d. The implied premium based on the Offer Price is significantly higher than the premiums implied by other Partial and Mandatory Offers over the past 2 years prior to the Offer. However, during the past 2 years, there were only 2 Partial Cash Offers and 8 Mandatory Cash Offers (which offered a positive premium). The implied premium based on the Offer Price is within the range but lower than the average and median premiums offered for Voluntary Cash Offers over the past 2 years. The implied premium is within the range, lower than the average and higher than the median of premiums offered for all Cash Offers noted above. e. The Company’s EBITDA margin is lower than the average and higher than the median EBITDA margin of Comparable Companies. The Company’s net margin and return on equity are lower than both the median and the average of the Comparable Companies. f. The LTM EV/EBITDA of 13.1x, is higher than the average and median of the LTM EV/EBITDA of the Comparable Companies. LTM P/E of 29.2x implied by the Offer Price is higher than the average and median of the Comparable Companies and higher than the maximum noted for Comparable Companies. The P/NTA of 2.5x implied by the Offer price is lower than the average and median P/NTA of the Comparable Companies. We note that the Comparable Companies are not under offer and that the financial ratios of the Company are in general more favourable than those of the Comparable Companies. g. The LTM EV/EBITDA implied by the Offer Price of 13.1x is marginally lower than the average and the median of the Comparable Transactions of 13.3x and 13.7x, respectively, and the LTM P/E implied by the Offer Price of 29.2x is higher than the average and the median of the Comparable Transactions of 20.9x. h. The Offeror has stated that it does not intend to revise the Offer Price. i. The Offer is conditional upon the conditions mentioned in Section 2.1(e) of the Circular and paragraph 3.5 above. j. Shareholders should also note that if the offer turns unconditional the Offeror and its Concert Parties would exercise statutory control over the Company. They will be free, subject to a six month moratorium after the close of the Offer, to acquire further Shares without incurring any obligation to make a general take-over offer for the Company. k. Shareholders may choose to tender in shares in part or in full with respect to their holdings. l. Shareholders should be aware that dividend policies and payments going forward may vary from historical norms.

17 m. The Company has not received any competing offer(s) from the Announcement Date up to the Latest Practicable Date. There may be a limited possibility of receiving a competing offer if the offer turns unconditional.”

8.3 Advice of Deloitte. After having regard to the considerations set out in the IFA Letter, and based on the circumstances of the Company and the information as at the Latest Practicable Date, Deloitte has made certain recommendations to the Unconflicted Directors, an extract of which is set out below. Shareholders should read the extract in conjunction with, and in the context of, the full text of the IFA Letter. Unless otherwise stated, all terms and expressions used in the extract below shall have the meanings given to them in the IFA Letter.

“Having considered the factors listed in paragraph 6 and subject to the assumptions and qualifications set out elsewhere in this letter and taking into account the conditions prevailing as at the Latest Practicable Date, we are of the opinion that the Offer is fair and reasonable and not prejudicial to the interests of the Offer Shareholders. Accordingly, we advise the Unconflicted Directors that they should recommend that the Shareholders vote in favour of the Offer and ACCEPT the Offer.”

9. RECOMMENDATION OF THE UNCONFLICTED DIRECTORS

9.1 Recommendation. The Unconflicted Directors, having considered carefully the terms of the Offer and the advice given by Deloitte in the IFA Letter, concur with the advice of Deloitte in respect of the Offer, and accordingly, recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of the Offer and ACCEPT the Offer.

Dear Sirs,

PROPOSED VOLUNTARY CONDITIONAL CASH PARTIAL OFFER FOR SHARES OF HEALTH MANAGEMENT INTERNATIONAL LIMITED PURSUANT TO RULES 16 OF THECODEON TAKE-OVERS AND MERGERS

Unless otherwise defined or the context otherwise requires, all terms defined in the Circular to the Shareholders dated 14 October 2013 (“Circular”) shall have the same meaning herein.

1. INTRODUCTION

On 16 September 2013, (the “Announcement Date”), Health Management International Limited (the “Company”) announced (the “Offer Announcement”) that the Board of Directors of the Company had received a voluntary conditional cash partial offer (the “Offer”) from PrimePartners Corporate Finance Pte Ltd, (“Prime”) for and on behalf of Nam See Investment Pte Ltd (the “Offeror”) to acquire 61,000,000 ordinary shares in the capital of the Company, other than the Shares held in treasury and shares already owned, controlled or agreed to be acquired by the Offeror and parties acting in concert with the Offeror (the “Shares”) (as defined in the Offer Announcement).

We, Deloitte & Touche Corporate Finance Pte Ltd (“DTCF”), have been appointed by the Company to advise the directors of the Company who are regarded as independent for the purposes of Offer under the Singapore Code on Takeovers and Mergers (the “Code”) (the “Independent Directors”; or the “Unconflicted Directors”) in respect of their recommendation on the actions to be taken by the shareholders (“Offer Shareholders”) other than the Offeror and the parties acting in concert with the Offeror (“Concert Parties”) in respect of the Offer. This letter sets out our assessment of the financial terms of the Offer and our advice to the Unconflicted Directors. It will form part of the Circular dated 14 October 2013 issued by the Company to provide the Offer Shareholders with details of the Offer and the recommendations of the Unconflicted Directors on the actions to be taken by the Offer Shareholders in respect of the Offer.

2. TERMS OF REFERENCE

We have been appointed to advise the Unconflicted Directors in respect of their recommendation on the actions to be taken by the Offer Shareholders in respect of the Offer.

We have confined our assessment to the financial terms of the Offer. We are not required to evaluate, comment or form a view on the commercial risks or merits of the Offer or on the future prospects and earnings potential of the Company and its subsidiaries and associated

22 company (the “Group”) and we have made no such evaluation. Such evaluation, if any, remains the responsibility of the directors of the Company (the “Directors”) and the management of the Company (the “Management”). We have drawn upon their views to the extent we have deemed necessary or appropriate in arriving at our advice as set out in this letter. We do not express any view as to the prices at which the shares of the Company may trade in the absence of the Offer.

We do not make any representation or warranty in relation to the merits of the Offer nor have we been requested, and we do not express an opinion on, the relative merits of the Offer as compared to any other alternative transaction.

We have not made an independent evaluation or appraisal of the assets and liabilities including without limitation the real properties of the Group and we have not been furnished with any such independent evaluation or appraisal.

We have held discussions with the Unconflicted Directors and Management and have examined publicly available information collated by us as well as information, written and verbal, provided to us by the Unconflicted Directors, the Management and the professional advisers of the Company (which has included its solicitors). We have relied upon and assumed the accuracy of the relevant information, both written and verbal, provided to us by the aforesaid parties and have not independently verified such information, whether written or verbal, and accordingly cannot and do not warrant, and do not accept any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness and adequacy of such information. We have not independently verified and have assumed that all statements of fact, belief, opinion and intention made by the Directors in the Circular have been reasonably made after due and careful enquiry. Accordingly, no representation or warranty (whether expressed or implied) is made and no responsibility is accepted by us concerning the accuracy, completeness or adequacy of such information. We have nonetheless made reasonable enquiries and exercised our judgement on the reasonable use of such information and have found no reason to doubt the accuracy or reliability of such information.

Where information relating to the Offer, and the parties acting or deemed to be acting in concert with the Offeror in connection with the Offer, has been extracted from published or otherwise publicly available sources, our sole responsibility has been to ensure that such information has been accurately and correctly extracted from the relevant sources.

Our opinion is based upon market, economic, industry, monetary, regulatory and other conditions in effect on, and the information made available to us as at, the Latest Practicable Date.

In rendering our advice, we have not had regard to the general or specific investment objectives, financial situation, risk profiles, tax position or particular needs and constraints of any shareholder. As different shareholders have different investment profiles and objectives, we advise the Unconflicted Directors to recommend that any Offer Shareholder who may require specific advice in relation to his or her investment portfolio should consult his or her stockbroker, bank manager, solicitor, accountant, tax adviser or other professional adviser.

The Company has been separately advised by its own professional advisers in the preparation of the Circular other than this letter. We have had no role or involvement and have not and will not provide any advice (financial or otherwise) in the preparation, review and verification of the Circular other than this letter.

“Demand for private healthcare in Malaysia remains resilient driven by rising income levels. While growth has been encouraging over the last few years, the Group is mindful of new competitors in the two markets i.e. Malacca and Johor where the Group’s two hospitals operate.

In Malacca, Mahkota Medical Centre Sdn Bhd (“MMCSB”) will face a new competitor by mid-2014, with the opening of the nearby 300-bed Oriental Melaka Straits Medical Centre. In addition, two new hospitals, Hospital Pakar Hang Tuah and KPJ Muar Specialist Hospital, which are in or around the vicinity of Malacca, are being built.

In Johor, the 120-bed KPJ Pasir Gudang Specialist Hospital, which is less than 3km from the Regency Specialist Hospital Sdn Bhd (“RSHSB”) began operations during the financial year. By 2015, there are expected to be three new hospitals in Johor, namely the 300-bed Gleneagles Medini Hospital, 390-bed KPJ Specialist Hospital Bandar Dato’ Onn and a 200-bed hospital by a Singapore investor and the Johor Royal Family. These new hospitals are expected to transform the healthcare landscape in Iskandar.

The Group is aware of the growing competition and challenges posed by the new hospitals. The new hospitals in Malacca and Johor are likely to increase competition for patients and bring further challenges in terms of manpower and talent retention for MMCSB and RSHSB. The Group will strive to continue delivering quality healthcare to its patients, specifically by recruiting more doctors and improving overall healthcare services and patient experience.”

The Offer also represents an opportunity for shareholders of the Company to realise part of their investment in the Company and the Group, while continuing to participate and have an exposure in the future performance of the Company and the Group through their remaining investment (if they choose to retain such investment).”

27 5.2. Intentions for the Company

We refer to Section 5 of the Offer Announcement and Section 4 of the Circular. We highlight that these Sections further state the following: “Presently, the Offeror intends to carry on the business of the Company and the Group of providing healthcare services and has no intention to introduce major changes to the business, including to redeploy the fixed assets of the Company and the Group or to discontinue the employment of the employees of the Company and the Group, in each case other than in the ordinary course of business.”

The Offeror has also stated that the current intentions are based on the Offeror’s present assessment of market conditions, operating circumstances and general economic and regulatory environment, over which the Offeror has limited or no control. As these factors change over the course of time, the Offeror reserves the right to review and consider its intentions as and when necessary.

6. FINANCIAL ASSESSMENT OF THE OFFER

In assessing the financial terms of the Offer, we have taken into account the following factors:

a. Liquidity of the Shares;

b. Market quotations for the Shares;

c. Comparison of prices for the Shares with selected, relevant indices;

d. Volume weighted average prices for the Shares;

e. Premia for takeovers of SGX-listed companies;

f. Comparison of ratings with Comparable Companies;

g. Comparison of ratings with Comparable Transactions; and

h. Other considerations.

6.1. Liquidity of the Shares

Share prices transacted in the equity capital market can be affected by their liquidity which for this purpose is expressed as average daily volume traded as a percentage of free float. In order to evaluate whether the historical market prices of the Shares provide a meaningful reference point for comparison of the Offer, we have considered the historical liquidity of the Shares over selected reference periods. We have also compared the liquidity of the Shares with the liquidity of the ten largest companies by market capitalisation within the FTSE Straits Times Index.

Table 1 – Liquidity of the Shares

Source: Bloomberg

We note that the liquidity of the Shares in the reference periods prior to the Announcement Date was between 0.6% and 0.9%.

We have also benchmarked the liquidity of the Shares to the liquidity of the Top 10 SGX Companies (by market capitalisation) for the one year period preceding the Announcement Date.

We note that the liquidity of the Top 10 SGX Companies in the one year period prior to the Announcement Date ranged from 0.11% to 0.45% with an average and median of 0.24% and 0.20% respectively. The liquidity of the Shares during this one year reference period was 0.09% and as such is (i) below the lower end of the range of the liquidity of the Top 10 SGX Companies, and (ii) significantly below the median and average liquidity of the Top 10 SGX Companies.

The liquidity of the Shares especially the period after the Announcement Date should not in any way be relied upon as an indication of the future liquidity of the Shares. There is no assurance that the liquidity of the Shares will remain at these levels after the Offer closes.

29 6.2. Market Quotations for the Shares

We have compared the Offer Price against the historical and current prices of the Shares.

We set out below a chart showing the Offer relative to the daily closing prices and trading volumes of the Shares for the period from 16 September 2011 (being the two year period up to the last trading day prior to the Announcement Date) to the Latest Practicable Date.

Source: Company announcements, offer documents and circulars to shareholders

We note the following: a. The Offer Price represents a premium of 32.4% to the VWAP of the Shares in the 1 month period before the Holding Announcement Date. The average and median of the 2 partial cash offers are at premiums of 8.5% and 8.5% respectively when compared with the targets’ 1 month VWAP. The average and median of the 8 observed mandatory cash offers (which offered a positive premium) are at premiums of 21.9% and 19.4% respectively when compared with the targets’ 1 month VWAP. The average and median of the 26 voluntary cash offers are at premiums of 42.7% and 35.9% respectively when compared with the targets’ 1 month VWAP. b. The Offer Price represents a premium of 33.5% over the VWAP of the Shares in the 3 month period before the Announcement Date. The average and median of the 2 partial cash offers are at premiums of 7.9% and 7.9% respectively when compared with the targets’ 3 month VWAP. The average and median of the 8 observed mandatory cash offers (which offered a positive premium) are at premiums of 24.5% and 29.4% respectively when compared with the targets’ 3 month VWAP. The average and median of the 26 voluntary cash offers are at premiums of 41.9% and 37.3% respectively when compared with the targets’ 3 month VWAP. c. The Offer Price represents a premium of 32.5% over the VWAP of the Shares in the 6 month period before the Announcement Date. The average and median of the 2 partial cash offers are at premiums of 14.8% and 14.8% respectively when compared with the targets’ 6 month VWAP. The average and median of the 8 observed mandatory cash offers (which offered a positive premium) are at premiums of 23.8% and 28.7% respectively when compared with the targets’ 6 month VWAP.

34 6.6. Comparison of ratings with Comparable Companies

The Company, its subsidiaries and associated companies (“Group”) are engaged in the business of providing healthcare services. The Group operates two hospitals in Malaysia, Mahkota Medical Centre in Malacca and Regency Specialist Hospital in Johor.

We highlight that we have not identified any listed company which is truly comparable to the Company in terms of the composition of its business activities, geographical spread, size of operations, asset base, track record, financial performance, operating and financial leverage, market capitalisation, risk profile, liquidity, future prospects and other relevant criteria. As a result, any comparisons drawn can serve only as an illustrative guide.

Thus for this purpose, we have considered companies whose principal activities are broadly similar to the Group’s healthcare services activities (the “Comparable Companies”).

We have benchmarked the Offer Price by generating selected valuation statistics for the Company implied by the Offer Price and compared those statistics with those for the Comparable Companies. The list of Comparable Companies has been prepared after consultation with the Directors and the Management of the Company.

In our analysis, we have collated and presented the following ratios:

LTM P/E A variant of the Price-to-Earnings ratio (“P/E”) where the earnings of a Company is computed based upon the last-twelve- month (“LTM”) period ending on the most recent quarter for which financial results have been published.

The P/E is the ratio of market capitalisation relative to its profit after tax attributable to shareholders of the Company (“NPAT”). The P/E is affected by, inter alia, the capital structure of a Company, its tax position as well as its accounting policies relating to depreciation and intangible assets.

LTM EV/EBITDA A variation of the EV/EBITDA ratio where the EBITDA of a company is computed based upon the LTM period ending on the most recent quarter for which financial results have been published.

“EV” or “Enterprise Value” is the sum of a company’s market capitalisation, preferred equity, minority interests, short and long term debts less its cash and cash equivalents. “EBITDA” stands for historical consolidated earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation expenses.

The EV/EBITDA ratio illustrates the ratio of the market value of a Company’s business relative to its historical consolidated pre-tax operating cashflow performance, without regard to its capital structure.

Price-to-Net Tangible NTA refers to consolidated net tangible assets, which is the total Assets (“P/NTA”) assets of a company less intangible assets (such as goodwill, patents and trademarks) and total liabilities.

P/NTA refers to the ratio of a company’s share price divided by NTA per share.

35 We note that the Group’s key activities include provision of healthcare services and healthcare education.

The value of the Company is derived predominantly from its ability to generate positive cash flows and streams of net earnings using a large asset base including hospitals. Accordingly, we have selected cash flows and earnings-based valuation ratios (such as EV/EBITDA and P/E) and asset based evaluation ratio (Price/NTA) as the benchmarks for evaluation.

The selected valuation statistics of the Comparable Companies are based upon their closing prices on the Latest Practicable Date while those of the Company are as implied by the Offer Price. Such comparisons are affected by differences in their accounting policies. Our analysis has not attempted to adjust for such differences.

The following is the list of Comparable Companies, together with a brief description of their principal activities:

Table 5 – Financial Ratios of Comparable Companies

Source: Bloomberg, the annual report and Company filings of the respective companies

Notes:

(1) EBITDA margin is computed based on the ratio of LTM EBITDA over the LTM revenue. LTM EBITDA has been adjusted for non-operating, non-recurring and extraordinary items.

(2) Net margin is computed based on the ratio of LTM NPAT over the LTM revenue. LTM NPAT has been adjusted for non-operating, non-recurring and extraordinary items; corporate tax rates have been applied to these adjustments.

(3) Return on equity is computed based on the ratio of normalised NPAT over shareholders’ funds, excluding minority interest.

(4) Net gearing is computed based on the ratio of total borrowings less cash and cash equivalents over shareholders’ equity, excluding minority interest.

(5) Asset turnover is computed based on the ratio of revenue over total assets.

(6) 3Yr-CAGR revenue is the compound annual growth rate in revenue over a 3 year period.

We note the following: a. The Company’s EBITDA margin is lower than the average and the median of Comparable Companies. The Company’s net margin and return on equity are also lower than the median and the average of the Comparable Companies. b. The Company’s net gearing is 57.8% which is higher than the average net gearing of 44.2% and higher than the median net gearing of 18.6% of Comparable Companies. c. The Company’s asset turnover is marginally lower than the average and median of the Comparable Companies. d. The Company’s revenue CAGR over the last three years is higher than the Comparable Companies and the median and average CAGR of the Comparable Companies.

39 On an overall basis, we note that the Company’s margins are lower than Comparable Companies and the Company has a higher gearing but however is growing at a faster rate than all Comparable Companies.

With this in mind, we have compared the multiples implied by the Offer Price with those of the Comparable Companies.

Source: Bloomberg, the annual report and Company filings of the respective companies

Notes:

(1) Computed as the ratio of EV to normalised LTM EBITDA, where EV is calculated as equity value + net debt + minority interest. LTM EBITDA has been adjusted for non-operating, non-recurring and extraordinary items. (2) Computed as the ratio of market capitalisation to normalised LTM NPAT. LTM NPAT has been adjusted for non-operating, non-recurring and extraordinary items; corporate tax rates have been applied to these adjustments. (3) Implied by the Offer Price. (4) For the purpose of this exercise we have adjusted the Enterprise value of the Company to exclude minority interest and also adjusted the EBITDA to exclude the earnings that pertain to minority interest holdings. This adjustment provides a more appropriate multiple for comparison against other comparable companies as a major portion of the Company’s EBITDA pertains to minority interest holdings. The LTM EV/EBITDA on a pre-adjusted basis is 7.6x.

We highlight the following key observations arising from the data presented above:

a. The LTM EV/EBITDA implied by the Offer Price is 13.1x which is higher than the average and the median LTM EV/EBITDA of the Comparable Companies of 12.7x and 10.5x respectively; b. The LTM P/E implied by the Offer Price of 29.2x is significantly above the average and median LTM P/E of the Comparable Companies of 15.2x and 20.1x respectively; and

40 c. The LTM P/NTA implied by the Offer Price of 2.5x is lower than the average and median P/NTA of the Comparable Companies of 3.5x and 3.3x, respectively.

For the purpose of comparison of Valuation multiples for Comparable Companies we have excluded Pacific Healthcare, Singapore Medical and Healthway Medical. This has been done because though these companies are comparable from a market perspective i.e. they cater largely to South East Asian patients, the nature of services and the business model vary widely as compared to the Company. It should also be noted that both Pacific and Singapore Medical are loss making and the implied valuation multiples cannot be used for comparison purposes.

Shareholders must also note that the Company has been investing over the past few years in its Regency Specialist Hospital business in Iskandar, Johor Bahru which is in the growth phase. We further highlight that from Section 4 of the Circular the following: “The Group is aware of the growing competition and challenges posed by the new hospitals. The new hospitals in Malacca and Johor are likely to increase competition for patients and bring further challenges in terms of manpower and talent retention for MMCSB and RSHSB. The Group will strive to continue delivering quality healthcare to its patients, specifically by recruiting more doctors and improving overall healthcare services and patient experience”.

We would like to highlight the following with regard to the NTA of the Company. The NTA of the Company that has been used to calculate the ratios is based on the audited financials for the year ended 30 Jun 2013. The NTA comprises of certain properties which are held by subsidiaries. We refer to the accounting policy of the Company for accounting of subsidiaries. The policy states the following: “Investment in subsidiaries and associated companies including loans and receivables from subsidiaries or associated companies that form part of the net investment in the subsidiary or associated company are carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses in the Company’s Balance Sheet”. As a result of this, the properties held by subsidiary companies would be reflected at historical cost in the Company’s balance sheet.

We understand that these properties do not reflect current market value. We have been informed by the management that the Company carries out an annual valuation of the properties.

Hence, based on information provided by the management, if the re-valued properties were to be considered in the calculation of the NTA, the resultant P/NTA would be 2.2x which would lower than the average and median of the Comparable Companies.

The key observations above illustrate that the Offer Price is fair and reasonable as the LTM EV/EBITDA and LTM P/E implied by the Offer Price are higher than the median and average multiples implied by the Comparable Companies. The P/NTA is lower than the average and median multiples implied by the Comparable Companies but are within the range. Please note that this comparison is for illustration purposes only and our opinion in paragraph 7 is based on the factors listed in paragraph 6 and subject to the assumptions and qualifications set out elsewhere in this letter and taking into account the conditions prevailing as at the Latest Practicable Date.

It is relevant to note that the Comparable Companies are not subject to take-over offers as at the Latest Practicable Date.

41 6.7. Comparison of ratings with Comparable Transactions

We have made comparison between the valuation ratios implied by the Offer Price and the valuation ratios indicated by selected completed transactions between 11 March 2010 and the Latest Practicable Date, involving targets that operate in the healthcare services segment that are broadly comparable to the Company (“Comparable Transactions”).

Our Comparable Transactions analysis is based on data compiled from publicly available sources and serves as a guide to the premium paid in connection with the acquisitions or divestments of companies in the healthcare services sector. Each transaction must be judged on its own commercial and financial merits. The premium that an acquirer pays in any particular transaction depends on various factors such as the potential synergy that the acquirer can gain from the acquisition, the presence of competing bids, prevailing market conditions, attractiveness of the target’s business and assets, size of consideration, scarcity value of an asset of a particular size (especially in the case of IHH Healthcare) and existing and desired level of control in the target Company. Conclusions drawn from the comparisons made may not reflect any perceived market valuation of the Company. Hence, the comparison of the Offer Price with the Comparable Transactions is for illustration purposes only.

Table 8 – Valuation Analysis for Comparable Transactions

Source: Bloomberg, Mergermarket, Company filings, offer documents and circulars to shareholders in relation to the respective transactions and DTCF’s computation, as the case may be.

Notes:

(1) Based on normalised LTM EBITDA and NPAT for last twelve-month period prior to each transaction’s announcement date. EBITDA has been adjusted for non-operating, non-recurring and extraordinary items. NPAT has been adjusted for non-operating, non-recurring and extraordinary items; corporate tax rates have been applied to these adjustments. (2) Based on cash position, debt, net earnings and EBITDAfor the 12 month period ended 30 June 2013, as provided by the Company.

We highlight the following key observations arising from the data presented above:

a. The LTM EV/EBITDA implied by the Offer Price of 13.1x is marginally lower than the average and the median of the Comparable Transactions of 13.3x and 13.7x, respectively; and

b. The LTM P/E implied by the Offer Price of 29.2x is higher than the average and higher than the median of those of the Comparable Transactions of 20.9x and 20.9x, respectively.

44 In addition, the implied LTM EV/EBITDA, LTM P/E and LTM P/NTA are lower than the maximum observed in the Comparable Companies.

The key observations above illustrate that the Offer Price is fair and reasonable, as the LTM EV/EBITDA is comparable to the average and median implied by the Offer Price and the LTM P/E is higher than the average and median of Comparable Transactions. Please note that this comparison is for illustration purposes only and our opinion in paragraph 7 is based on the factors listed in paragraph 6 and subject to the assumptions and qualifications set out elsewhere in this letter and taking into account the conditions prevailing as at the Latest Practicable Date.

6.8. Other considerations

6.8.1. No obligation to make a general offer

As discussed in 3.5 above, if the Offer is unconditional in all respects, the Offeror and its Concert Parties will be able to exercise statutory control over the Company and will be free, subject to a six month moratorium after the close of the Offer, to acquire further Shares without incurring any obligation to make a general take-over offer for the Company.

6.8.2. No Intention to Revise the Offer Price and Extension of duration

The Offeror has stated that it does not intend to revise the Offer Price. Although no extension of the Offer is currently contemplated, if the Offer is extended, an announcement will be made of such extension, and the Offer will remain open for acceptance for such period as may be announced. If the Offer is extended, holders who have validly accepted the Offer in respect of part of their Shares will be entitled to tender additional Shares in acceptance of the Offer.

6.8.3. The intentions of the Offeror and its concert parties for the Company

The Offeror has stated in the Offer Announcement, inter alia, the following intentions “Presently, the Offeror intends to carry on the business of the Company and the Group of providing healthcare services and has no intention to introduce major changes to the business, including to redeploy the fixed assets of the Company and the Group or to discontinue the employment of the employees of the Company and the Group, in each case other than in the ordinary course of business.”

6.8.4. Dividend policies going forward

The Offeror has not stated dividend polices for the Company going forward. As such, Shareholders should be aware that going forward dividend policies and payments may vary from historical norms.

6.8.5. Absence of Competing Offers

We understand from the Company that from the Announcement date up to the Latest Practicable Date, no competing offer has been forthcoming. It should also be noted that, if the Offer is unconditional in all respects, the Offeror and its Concert Parties will be able to exercise statutory control over 53.16% of the shares the Company. Hence, unless a new Offeror is willing to make an offer for a minority stake, there may be limited possibility of a Competing Offer for the Company.

45 7. CONCLUSION

In arriving at our advice in respect of the financial terms of the Offer, we have taken into account the factors which we consider to have a significant bearing on our assessment which include the following:

a. Our analysis of the liquidity of the Shares indicates that the liquidity of the Shares especially the period after the Announcement Date should not in any way be relied upon as an indication of the future liquidity of the Shares. There is no assurance that the liquidity of the Shares will remain at these levels after the Offer closes.

b. The Shares have traded below the Offer Price in the period post the Announcement Date to the Latest Practicable Date. The Offer price represents a premium in the range of 32.4% to 37.1% during the last two years. We have also noted that during the last 5 years, the share price has not traded above the Offer price.

c. We note that the market price of the Shares outperformed the benchmark indices (being FSSTI and MXASJHC). It is possible that the Offer is in part responsible for this rise and outperformance.

d. The implied premium based on the Offer Price is significantly higher than the premiums implied by other Partial and Mandatory Offers over the past 2 years prior to the Offer. However, during the past 2 years, there were only 2 Partial Cash Offers and 8 Mandatory Cash Offers (which offered a positive premium). The implied premium based on the Offer Price is within the range but lower than the average and median premiums offered for Voluntary Cash Offers over the past 2 years. The implied premium is within the range, lower than the average and higher than the median of premiums offered for all Cash Offers noted above.

e. The Company’s EBITDAmargin is lower than the average and higher than the median EBITDA margin of Comparable Companies. The Company’s net margin and return on equity are lower than both the median and the average of the Comparable Companies.

f. The LTM EV/EBITDA of 13.1x, is higher than the average and median of the LTM EV/EBITDA of the Comparable Companies. LTM P/E of 29.2x implied by the Offer Price is higher than the average and median of the Comparable Companies and higher than the maximum noted for Comparable Companies. The P/NTA of 2.5x implied by the Offer price is lower than the average and median P/NTA of the Comparable Companies. We note that the Comparable Companies are not under offer and that the financial ratios of the Company are in general more favourable than those of the Comparable Companies.

g. The LTM EV/EBITDA implied by the Offer Price of 13.1x is marginally lower than the average and the median of the Comparable Transactions of 13.3x and 13.7x, respectively, and the LTM P/E implied by the Offer Price of 29.2x is higher than the average and the median of the Comparable Transactions of 20.9x.

h. The Offeror has stated that it does not intend to revise the Offer Price.

i. The Offer is conditional upon the conditions mentioned in Section 2.1(e) of the Circular and paragraph 3.5 above.

j. Shareholders should also note that if the offer turns unconditional the Offeror and its Concert Parties would exercise statutory control over the Company. They will be free, subject to a six month moratorium after the close of the Offer, to acquire further Shares without incurring any obligation to make a general take-over offer for the Company.

46 k. Shareholders may choose to tender in shares in part or in full with respect to their holdings.

l. Shareholders should be aware that dividend policies and payments going forward may vary from historical norms. m. The Company has not received any competing offer(s) from the Announcement Date up to the Latest Practicable Date. There may be a limited possibility of receiving a competing offer if the offer turns unconditional.

Having considered the factors listed in paragraph 6 and subject to the assumptions and qualifications set out elsewhere in this letter and taking into account the conditions prevailing as at the Latest Practicable Date, we are of the opinion that the Offer is fair and reasonable and not prejudicial to the interests of the Offer Shareholders. Accordingly, we advise the Unconflicted Directors that they should recommend that the Shareholders vote in favour of the Offer and ACCEPT the Offer.

In rendering our opinion, we have not had regard to any general or specific investment objectives, financial situations, risk profiles, tax positions or particular needs or constraints of any individual Shareholder or any specific group of Shareholders and we neither assume any responsibility for, nor hold ourselves out as advisers to any person other than the Unconflicted Directors.

Our opinion is only based on a financial analysis and does not incorporate any assessment of commercial, legal, tax, regulatory or other matters. Such factors (including the aforesaid illustrations) are beyond the ambit of our review and do not fall within our terms of reference in connection with the Offer.

We wish to emphasize that we have been appointed to render our opinion as of the Latest Practicable Date. Our terms of reference do not require us to express, and we do not express, an opinion on the future growth prospects of the Company.

Shareholders should note that the trading of the Shares is subject to, inter alia, the performance and prospects of the Group, prevailing economic conditions, economic outlook and stock market conditions and sentiments. Accordingly, our advice on the Offer does not and cannot take into account future trading activities or patterns or price levels that may be established for the Shares after the Latest Practicable Date since these are governed by factors beyond the ambit of our review and also, such advice, if given, would not fall within our terms of reference in connection with the Offer.

Our opinion is addressed to the Unconflicted Directors for their benefit in connection with and for the purposes of their consideration in respect of the Offer. Any recommendations made by the Unconflicted Directors in respect of the Offer shall remain their responsibility.

Whilst a copy of this letter may be reproduced in the Circular, no other person may reproduce, disseminate or quote this letter (or any part thereof) for any purpose (other than the intended purpose in relation to the Offer Announcement and the Offer) at any time and in any manner without our prior written consent in each specific case. Our opinion is governed by the laws of Singapore, and is strictly limited to the matters stated in this letter and do not apply by implication to any other matter.

Yours faithfully

Annual Report 2013 45 71 Notes to the Financial Statements For the financial year ended 30 June 2013

These notes form an integral part of and should be read in conjunction with the accompanying financial statements.

1. General information

Health Management International Ltd (the “Company”) is listed on the Singapore Exchange and is incorporated and domiciled in Singapore. The address of its registered office is 167 Jalan Bukit Merah, #05-10 Connection One, Singapore 150167.

The principal activities of the Company are those of investment holding and management consultants. The principal activities of its subsidiaries are stated in Note 30 to the financial statements.

2. Significant accounting policies

2.1 Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Singapore Financial Reporting Standards (“FRS”). The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except as disclosed in the accounting policies below.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with FRS requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. It also requires the use of critical accounting estimates and assumptions. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements, are disclosed in Note 3.

Interpretations and amendments to published standards effective in 2013

On 1 July 2012, the Group adopted the following new or amended FRS and Interpretations to FRS (“INT FRS”) that are mandatory for application from that date. Changes to the Group’s accounting policies have been made as required, in accordance with the relevant transitional provisions in the respective FRS and INT FRS.

• Amendments to FRS 1 Presentation of Items at other Comprehensive Income (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2012)

The adoption of these new or amended FRS and INT FRS did not result in substantial changes to the Group’s and Company’s accounting policies and had no material effect on the amounts reported for the current or prior financial years.

46 Health Management International Ltd 72 Notes to the Financial Statements For the financial year ended 30 June 2013

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

2.2 Going concern

In the opinion of the Management, the consolidated financial statements of the Group and the balance sheet of the Company are prepared under the going concern assumption on the basis that:

(i) The new and continuing investments made by the Group in its hospital and healthcare operations will generate additional cash flows for the Group; and

(ii) The Group continues to receive the support of its bankers.

2.3 Revenue recognition

Revenue comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the rendering of services in the ordinary course of the Group’s activities. Revenue is presented, net of value-added tax, rebates and discounts, and after eliminating sales within the Group.

The Group recognises revenue when the amount of revenue and related cost can be reliably measured, when it is probable that the collectability of the related receivables is reasonably assured and when the specific criteria for each of the Group’s activities are met as follows:

(a) Rendering of services

Revenue from hospital and other healthcare services is recognised in the period in which the services are rendered.

Revenue from healthcare education and training is recognised on a straight-line basis over the duration of the relevant course. Revenue received in advance is deferred and recognised in the balance sheet as deferred income.

(b) Interest income

Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method.

(c) Car park income

Car park income is recognised on a straight-line time proportion basis.

(d) Rental income

Rental income from operating leases (net of any incentives given to the lessees) is recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

2.4 Group accounting

(a) Subsidiaries

(i) Consolidation

Subsidiaries are entities (including special purpose entities) over which the Group has power to govern the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from its activities, generally accompanied by a shareholding giving rise to a majority of the voting rights. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Group controls another entity.

Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are de-consolidated from the date on which control ceases.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated but considered an impairment indicator of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

Non-controlling interests are that part of the net results of operations and of net assets of subsidiaries attributable to the interests which are not owned directly or indirectly by the equity holders of the Company. They are shown separately in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and balance sheet. Total comprehensive income is attributed to the non-controlling interests based on their respective interests in a subsidiary, even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.

(ii) Acquisition

The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for business combinations by the Group.

The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary or business comprises the fair value of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred and the equity interests issued by the Group. The consideration transferred also includes the fair value of any contingent consideration arrangement and the fair value of any pre-existing equity interest in the subsidiary.

Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.

Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are, with limited exceptions, measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date.

On an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, the Group recognises any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at the date of acquisition either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the acquiree’s net identifiable assets.

The excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.

48 Health Management International Ltd 74 Notes to the Financial Statements For the financial year ended 30 June 2013

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

2.4 Group accounting (continued)

(a) Subsidiaries (continued)

(iii) Disposals

When a change in the Group’s ownership interest in a subsidiary results in a loss of control over the subsidiary, the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary including any goodwill are derecognised. Amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are also reclassified to profit or loss or transferred directly to retained earnings if required by a specific standard.

Any retained equity interest in the entity is remeasured at fair value. The difference between the carrying amount of the retained interest at the date when control is lost and its fair value is recognised in profit or loss.

Please refer to the paragraph “Investments in subsidiaries, and associated corporations” for the accounting policy on investments in subsidiaries in the separate financial statements of the Company.

(b) Transactions with non-controlling interests

Changes in the Group’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control over the subsidiary are accounted for as transactions with equity owners of the Company. Any difference between the change in the carrying amounts of the non-controlling interest and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognised in a separate reserve within equity attributable to the equity holders of the Company.

(c) Associated corporations

Associated corporations are entities over which the Group has significant influence, but not control, and generally accompanied by a shareholding giving rise to voting rights of 20% and above but not exceeding 50%. Investments in associated corporations are accounted for in the consolidated financial statements using the equity method of accounting less impairment losses, if any.

(i) Acquisitions

Investments in associated corporations are initially recognised at cost. The cost of an acquisition is measured at the fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued or liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange, plus costs directly attributable to the acquisition.

Annual Report 2013 49 75 Notes to the Financial Statements For the financial year ended 30 June 2013

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

2.4 Group accounting (continued)

(c) Associated corporations (continued)

(ii) Equity method of accounting (continued)

In applying the equity method of accounting, the Group’s share of its associated corporations’ post-acquisition profits or losses is recognised in profit or loss and its share of post-acquisition other comprehensive income is recognised in other comprehensive income. These post- acquisition movements and distributions received from the associated corporations are adjusted against the carrying amount of the investments. When the Group’s share of losses in an associated corporation equals or exceeds its interest in the associated corporation, including any other unsecured non-current receivables, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has obligations or has made payments on behalf of the associated corporation.

Unrealised gains on transactions between the Group and its associated corporations are eliminated to the extent of the Group's interest in the associated corporations. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. The accounting policies of associated corporations have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the accounting policies adopted by the Group.

(iii) Disposals

Gains and losses arising from partial disposals or dilutions in investments in associated corporations are recognised in profit or loss.

Investments in associated corporations are derecognised when the Group loses significant influence. Any retained equity interest in the entity is remeasured at its fair value. The difference between the carrying amount of the retained interest at the date when significant influence is lost and its fair value is recognised in profit or loss.

Please refer to the paragraph “Investment in subsidiaries and associated corporations” for the accounting policy on investments in associated corporations in the separate financial statements of the Company.

2.5 Property, plant and equipment

(a) Measurement

All items of property, plant and equipment are initially recognised at cost and subsequently carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment initially recognised includes its purchase price and any cost that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. The projected cost of dismantlement, removal or restoration is also included as part of the cost of property, plant and equipment if the obligation for the dismantlement, removal or restoration is incurred as a consequence of acquiring or using the asset.

50 Health Management International Ltd 76 Notes to the Financial Statements For the financial year ended 30 June 2013

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

2.5 Property, plant and equipment (continued)

(b) Depreciation

Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their depreciable amounts over their estimated useful lives as follows:

Useful lives Over the lease term of 99 years commencing Leasehold land from 2002 Leasehold buildings 50 years Electrical equipment 10 years Medical equipment 8 - 10 years Motor vehicles 5 - 10 years Furniture, office equipment and housekeeping equipment 3 - 10 years

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.

(c) Subsequent expenditure

Subsequent expenditure relating to property, plant and equipment that has already been recognised is added to the carrying amount of the asset only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repair and maintenance expenses are recognised in profit or loss when incurred.

(d) Disposal

On disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment, the difference between the disposal proceeds and its carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss within “Other gains - net”.

2.6 Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method except for those costs that are directly attributable to the construction or development of properties. This includes those costs on borrowings acquired specifically for the construction or development of properties, as well as those in relation to general borrowings used to finance the construction or development of properties.

The actual borrowing costs incurred during the period up to the issuance of the temporary occupation permit less any investment income on temporary investment of these borrowings, are capitalised in the cost of the property under development.

Borrowing costs on general borrowings are capitalised by applying a capitalisation rate to construction or development expenditures that are financed by general borrowings.

Annual Report 2013 51 77 Notes to the Financial Statements For the financial year ended 30 June 2013

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

2.7 Investment properties

Investment properties held by associated corporations include those portions of office buildings that are held for long-term rental yields and/or for capital appreciation and land under operating leases that are held for long-term capital appreciation or for a currently indeterminate use.

Investment properties are initially recognised at cost and subsequently carried at fair value, determined annually by independent professional valuers on the highest-and-best-use basis. Changes in fair values are recognised in profit or loss.

Investment properties are subject to renovations or improvements at regular intervals. The cost of major renovations and improvements is capitalised and the carrying amounts of the replaced components are written off to profit or loss. The cost of maintenance, repairs and minor improvements is charged to profit or loss when incurred.

On disposal of an investment property, the difference between the disposal proceeds and the carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss.

Please refer to “Supplementary Information” for details of investment properties held by associated corporations of the Group.

2.8 Investments in subsidiaries and associated corporations Loan to an associated corporation

Investments in subsidiaries and associated corporations including loans and receivables from subsidiaries or associated corporations that form part of the net investment in the subsidiary or associated corporation are carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses in the Company’s balance sheet. On disposal of investments in subsidiaries and associated corporations, the difference between disposal proceeds and the carrying amounts of the investments are recognised in profit or loss.

2.9 Impairment of non-financial assets

Property, plant and equipment Investments in subsidiaries and associated corporations

Property, plant and equipment and investments in subsidiaries and associated corporations are tested for impairment whenever there is any objective evidence or indication that these assets may be impaired.

For the purpose of impairment testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and 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, recoverable amount is determined for the Cash Generating Unit (“CGU”) to which the asset belongs.

If the recoverable amount of the asset (or CGU) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or CGU) is reduced to its recoverable amount.

The difference between the carrying amount and recoverable amount is recognised as an impairment loss in profit or loss.

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 an 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 any accumulated amortisation or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years.

A reversal of impairment loss for an asset is recognised in profit or loss.

2.10 Loans and receivables

Trade and other receivables

Trade and other receivables are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs and subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method. They are presented as current assets, except those maturing later than 12 months after the balance sheet date which are presented as non-current assets.

Trade receivables are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the customers have expired or have been received.

Receivables that form part of the net investment in subsidiaries or associated corporations are carried at cost less impairment.

The Group assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is objective evidence that trade and other receivables are impaired and recognises an allowance for impairment when such evidence exists. Significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy and default or significant delay in payments are objective evidence that these financial assets are impaired.

The carrying amount of these assets is reduced through the use of an impairment allowance account which is calculated as the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate.

These assets are presented as current assets except for those that are expected to be realised later than 12 months after the balance sheet date, which are presented as non-current assets.

2.11 Borrowings

Borrowings are presented as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date.

Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value (net of transaction costs) and subsequently carried at amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.

2.12 Trade and other payables

Trade and other payables represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of financial period 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). If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities.

Trade and other payables are initially recognised at fair value, and subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

2.13 Fair value estimation of financial assets and liabilities

The fair values of current financial assets and liabilities carried at amortised cost approximate their carrying amounts.

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

2.14 Leases

The Group leases land, medical equipment and motor vehicles under finance leases. Land and buildings and office premises are leased under operating leases.

(a) Lessee – Finance leases

Leases where the Group assumes substantially all risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the leased assets are classified as finance leases.

The leased assets and the corresponding lease liabilities (net of finance charges) under finance leases are recognised on the balance sheet as property, plant and equipment and borrowings respectively, at the inception of the leases based on the lower of the fair values of the leased assets and the present value of the minimum lease payments.

Each lease payment is apportioned between the finance expense and the reduction of the outstanding lease liability. The finance expense is recognised in profit or loss on a basis that reflects a constant periodic rate of interest on the finance lease liability.

(b) Lessee - Operating leases

Leases where substantially all risks and rewards incidental to ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessors) are recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

When a lease is terminated before the lease period expires, any payment made (or received) by the Group as penalty is recognised as an expense (or income) in the period when termination takes place.

2.15 Inventories

Inventories are carried at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined using the weighted average basis and includes all costs in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less applicable variable selling expenses.

2.16 Income taxes

Current income tax for current and prior periods is recognised at the amounts expected to be paid to or recovered from the tax authorities, using the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantially 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 goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss at the time of the transaction.

A deferred income tax liability is recognised on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries and associated corporations, except where the Group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

A deferred income tax asset is recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and tax losses can be utilised.

54 Health Management International Ltd 80 Notes to the Financial Statements For the financial year ended 30 June 2013

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

2.16 Income taxes (continued)

Deferred income tax is measured:

(i) 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 substantially enacted by the balance sheet date; and

(ii) based on the tax consequence that would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the balance sheet date, to recover or settle the carrying amounts of its assets and liabilities.

Current and deferred income tax are recognised as income or expenses in profit or loss.

2.17 Employee compensation

(a) Defined contribution plans

Defined contribution plans are post-employment benefit plans under which the Group pays fixed contributions into separate entities such as the Central Provident Fund on a mandatory, contractual or voluntary basis. The Group has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid. The Group’s contributions are recognised as employee compensation expense when they are due.

(b) Employee leave entitlement

Employee entitlements to annual leave are recognised when they accrue to employees. An accrual is made for the estimated liability for annual leave as a result of services rendered by employees up to the balance sheet date.

2.18 Currency translation

(a) Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the financial statements of each entity in the Group are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (“functional currency”). The functional currency of the Company is the Singapore Dollar. The presentation currency of the Company and the Group is the as it provides a better understanding of the Group’s operations being predominantly based in Malaysia.

(b) Transactions and balances

Transactions in a currency other than the functional currency (“foreign currency”) are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Currency exchange differences from the settlement of such transactions and from the currency translation differences of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the closing rates at the balance sheet date are recognised in profit or loss.

In preparation of the consolidated financial statements of the Group, exchange differences arising on a monetary item that forms part of a reporting entity’s net investment in a foreign operation shall be recognised in profit or loss in the separate financial statements of the reporting entity or the individual financial statements of the foreign operation, as appropriate. In the financial statements that include the foreign operation and the reporting entity, such exchange differences shall be recognised initially in a separate component of equity and recognised in profit or loss on disposal of the net investment.

2.18 Currency translation (continued)

(c) Translation of Group entities’ financial statements

The results and financial position of all the Group entities (none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:

(i) Assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rates at the date of the balance sheet;

(ii) Income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates (unless the average is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions); and

(iii) All resulting currency translation differences are recognised in the currency translation reserve.

2.19 Provisions

Provision for other liabilities and charges are recognised when the Group 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.

2.20 Segment reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the executive committee whose members are responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments.

2.21 Cash and cash equivalents

For the purpose of presentation in the consolidated statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits with financial institutions which are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are presented as current borrowings on the balance sheet.

2.22 Government grants

Grants from the government are recognised as a receivable at their fair value where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and the Group will comply with all the attached conditions.

Government grants receivable are recognised as income over the periods necessary to match them with the related costs which they are intended to compensate, on a systematic basis. Government grants relating to expenses are shown separately as other income.

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

2.23 Share capital and treasury shares

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of new ordinary shares are deducted against the share capital account.

When any entity within the Group purchases the Company’s ordinary shares (“treasury shares”), the consideration paid including any directly attributable incremental cost is presented as a component within equity attributable to the Company’s equity holders, until they are cancelled, sold or reissued.

When treasury shares are subsequently cancelled, the cost of treasury shares are deducted against the share capital account if the shares are purchased out of capital of the Company, or against the retained earnings of the Company if the shares are purchased out of earnings of the Company.

When treasury shares are subsequently sold, the cost of treasury shares is reversed from the treasury share account and the realised gain or loss on sale or reissue, net of any directly attributable incremental transaction costs and related income tax, is recognised in the capital reserve of the Company.

2.24 Dividends to Company’s shareholders

Dividends to the Company’s shareholders are recognised when the dividends are approved for payments.

3. Critical accounting estimates and assumptions

(a) Current and deferred income taxes

The Group is subject to income taxes in different jurisdictions. In determining the income tax liabilities, management continues to take positions in tax returns based on well-ground positions taken in good faith. Judgements concerning positions taken may change as developments in case law, new rulings or regulations by the tax authorities become available.

Deferred tax assets are recognised for unused tax losses, unabsorbed capital allowances and unutilised tax credit to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the losses, capital allowances and tax credit can be utilised. This involves judgement regarding the future financial performance of the Group in which the extent of deferred tax asset can be recognised.

(b) Impairment of property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever there is any indication that the assets may be impaired. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount (higher of the fair value less costs to sell and value in use) of the assets is estimated in determining the impairment losses. The key assumptions for the value in use calculation are those relating to patients’ growth rate, expected change of billing and direct costs for a period of 5 years. The sensitivity tests indicated that no impairment loss is required where other realistic variations are applied to key assumptions.

Included in trade receivables from third parties was RM 874,140 (2012: nil) relating to grants receivable from the Singapore Workforce Development Agency (“WDA”). There are no unfulfilled conditions and other contingencies attached to the WDA grants receivable.

The amounts due from subsidiaries represent advances which are unsecured, interest-free and are recoverable on demand.

The current amounts due from associated corporations arose from sales of leasehold land and building and advances granted to certain associates. These balances are unsecured, recoverable on demand and bear interest at 6.95% (2012: 6.95%) per annum.

An amount of RM 7,115,636 (2012: RM 6,698,024) has been loaned to an associated corporation as its expansion capital. The settlement is neither planned nor likely to occur in the foreseeable future and is in substance part of the Company’s net investment in the associated corporation. Accordingly this amount is classified as non-current. The balance is unsecured, recoverable on demand and bears an interest at 6.95% (2012: 6.95%) per annum.

14. Investments in associated corporations (continued)

(a) Investments in an associated corporation of RM 44,194 (2012: RM 44,585) have been pledged as security for bank borrowings of the Company (Note 18(a)).

(b) The Company has made an allowance of RM 3,154,295 (2012: RM 2,687,344) for impairment of its investment in two associated corporations and an allowance of RM 2,755,263 (2012: RM 2,755,263) for impairment of receivables from one of the associated corporations (Note 11) which has been dormant for the current and past financial years.

(c) During the current financial year, the Group has not recognised its share of loss of two associated corporations amounting to RM 192,430 (2012: RM 169,445) because the Group’s cumulative share of losses exceeds its interest in the associated corporations and the Group has no obligation in respect of those losses.

17. Trade and other payables (continued)

Included in “trade payables and other payables” are lease expenses accrued on a straight-line basis for a non-cancellable operating lease with an associated corporation of RM 6,130,433 (2012: RM 6,381,794). Please refer to Note 24(b).

The current amounts due to subsidiaries, associated corporations and related parties are unsecured, interest- free and are repayable on demand.

Accrual for cost of conversion of wards to medical suites is in respect of units sold in prior years to an associated corporation, for which a subsidiary incorporated in Malaysia has a contractual obligation to convert.

The non-current non-trade amount due to non-controlling interests of a subsidiary is in substance part of the non-controlling interests’ investment in the subsidiary. The amount is unsecured, interest-free and settlement is neither planned nor likely to occur in the foreseeable future and accordingly is classified as non-current.

26. Financial risk management

Financial risk factors

The Group’s financial risk management policy seeks to ensure that adequate financial resources are available for the development of the Group’s business whilst managing its market risk (including currency risk and interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s policy is not to engage in speculative transactions.

(a) Market risk

(i) Currency risk

Currency risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in currency exchange rates.

The Company’s operational activities are carried out in Singapore dollars. The Group also has operational activities carried out in Malaysian Ringgit (“RM”) by its subsidiaries in Malaysia.

Management monitors the Group’s exposure to currency risk to keep the net exposure at an acceptable level.

Annual Report 2013 77 103 Notes to the Financial Statements For the financial year ended 30 June 2013

26. Financial risk management (continued)

(a) Market risk (continued)

(i) Currency risk (continued)

As at balance sheet date, the Company’s subsidiaries have their financial instruments mainly denominated in their respective functional currencies, and currency risk is insignificant. The Group’s exposure to currency risk mainly arises from an RM denominated amount due from an associated corporation of RM 19,942,940 (2012: RM 22,760,745) as the Company’s functional currency is the Singapore Dollar (“SGD”).

As at 30 June 2013, if the RM has strengthened/ weakened by 1% (2012: 1%) against the SGD with all other variables including tax rate being held constant, the Group’s profit after tax would have been RM 165,772 (2012: RM 184,644) higher/lower, as a result of currency translation gains/losses on these RM denominated balances.

(ii) Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk

Cash flow interest rate risk is the risk that future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. Fair value interest rate risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rate.

The Group’s exposure to movements in market interest rates is primarily due to its debt obligations with financial institutions.

(ii) Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk (continued)

The Group manages its interest rate exposure by monitoring movements in interest rates and actively reviewing its debt obligations. As the Group has no significant interest bearing assets, the Group’s income is substantially independent of changes in market interest rates.

The Group’s borrowings at variable rates comprise approximately 60% (2012: 52%) of the total borrowings. If the interest rate during the financial year had been higher/lower by 0.5% (2012: 0.5%) with all other variables including tax rates being held constant, the profit after tax would have been lower/higher by RM 158,410 (2012: profit after tax will be lower/higher by RM 149,398) as a result of higher/lower interest expense on variable rate borrowings.

(b) Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. Trade receivables are monitored on an ongoing basis via Group management reporting procedures.

The Group has no significant concentration exposure to any individual customer or counterparty nor does it have any major concentration of credit risk related to any financial instruments.

Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade receivables are limited due to the Group’s large number of customers who are dispersed. Management believes that there is no anticipated additional credit risk beyond the amount of allowance for impairment made in the Group’s trade receivables.

As the Group and Company does not hold any collateral, the maximum exposure to credit risk for each class of financial instruments is the carrying amount of that class of financial instruments presented on the balance sheet.

(b) Credit risk (continued)

The Group’s and Company’s major classes of financial assets that are subject to credit risk are short- term bank deposits and trade and non-trade receivables.

All non-trade receivables are from subsidiaries and associated corporations and the carrying amounts are not past due.

The Group’s dominant operations are in Malaysia, and the Group’s trade receivables located in Malaysia represents 94% (2012: 96%) of total trade receivables. The remainder represents revenues arising from operations in Singapore.

Trade receivables arises entirely from non-related parties: corporate customers and individual customers which represent 91% (2012: 94%) and 9% (2012: 6%) respectively.

It is the Group’s policy to transact with creditworthy counterparties. In addition, the granting of material credit limits to counterparties is reviewed and approved by senior management.

(i) Financial assets that are neither past due nor impaired

Trade and other receivables that are neither past due nor impaired are creditworthy debtors with good payment record with the Group. Cash and cash equivalents are placed with or entered into with reputable financial institutions.

(ii) Financial assets that are either past due or impaired

There is no other class of financial assets that is past due and/or impaired except for trade receivables (refer below for analysis) and an amount due from an associated corporation (refer to Note 14(b) for analysis).

The age analysis of trade receivables past due but not impaired is as follows:

28. Segment information

The Management has determined the operating segments based on the reports that are used to make strategic decisions. The Management comprises the Executive Chairman/Managing Director and the Executive Director.

The Management considers the business from both a geographic and business segment perspective. Geographically, management manages and monitors the business in the two primary geographic areas, Singapore and Malaysia. The Singapore segment derives revenue from healthcare education and training services. The Malaysia segment derives revenue from hospital and other healthcare services.

Other operations included within Singapore and Malaysia relate to investment holding; but these are not included within the reportable operating segments, as they are not included in the reports provided to the Management. The results of these operations are included in the “all other segments” column.

28. Segment information (continued)

Revenue between segments is carried out at arm’s length. The revenue from external parties reported to the Management is measured in a manner consistent with that in the statement of comprehensive income.

The Management assesses the performance of the operating segments based on a measure of earnings before interest and tax (“adjusted EBIT”). Interest income and finance expenses are not allocated to segments, as this type of activity is driven by the Group finance function, which manages the cash position and borrowings of the Group.

29. New or revised accounting standards and interpretations

Below are the mandatory standards, amendments and interpretations to existing standards that have been published, and are relevant for the Group’s accounting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2013 or later periods and which the Group has not early adopted:

• FRS 110 Consolidated Financial Statements (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014)

FRS 110 replaces all of the guidance on control and consolidation in FRS 27 “Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements” and SIC 12 “Consolidation – Special Purpose Entities”. The same criteria are now applied to all entities to determine control. Additional guidance is also provided to assist in the determination of control where this is difficult to assess. The Group has yet to assess the full impact of FRS 110 and intends to apply the standard from 1 July 2014.

• FRS 112 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014)

FRS 112 requires disclosure of information that helps financial statement readers to evaluate the nature, risks and financial effects associated with the entity’s interests in subsidiaries, associates, joint arrangements and unconsolidated structured entities. The Group has yet to assess the full impact of FRS 112 and intends to adopt the standard from 1 July 2014.
