We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of LT Group, Inc. (a subsidiary of Tangent Holdings Corporation) and its subsidiaries, which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as at December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the consolidated statements of income, consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes in equity and consolidated statements of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2015, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with Philippine Financial Reporting Standards, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with Philippine Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of LT Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries as at December 31, 2015 and 2014 and their financial performance and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2015, in accordance with Philippine Financial Reporting Standards.

On February 9, 2013, PNB completed its planned merger with ABC (the merger of PNB and ABC is referred to herein as “Merged PNB”) as approved and confirmed by the BOD of PNB and ABC on January 22 and January 23, 2013, respectively.

The merger of PNB and ABC was accounted for using the pooling of interests method by the Company since both entities are under the common control of Mr. Tan.

On February 11, 2013, LTG’s BOD approved the acquisition of indirect ownership interest in the Merged PNB through the investment in the 27 holding companies which have collective ownership interest in the Merged PNB of 59.83% (collectively referred to as “Bank Holding Companies”). LTG’s acquisition of the Bank Holding Companies was effected by way of subscription to the increase in authorized shares of the Bank Holding Companies and acquisition of the Bank Holding Companies’ shares owned by the Controlling Shareholders. On November 8, 2013, LTG obtained the requisite regulatory approval from the Hongkong Monetary Authority (HKMA) to become a majority shareholder controller of ABC (Hongkong) Limited (ABCHK) and the HKMA took note of the plan of LTG to acquire or increase its shareholdings in PNB up to 59.83%.

In various dates in February, March and December 2013, upon approval of the Philippine SEC for the increase in authorized capital stock of certain Bank Holding Companies, LTG acquired between 80% to 100% ownership of these Bank Holding Companies. The transactions were consummated through conversion of LTG’s advances from the Bank Holding Companies in exchange for the shares acquired. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, LTG indirectly owns 56.47% of PNB through the 59.83% collective ownership of the Bank Holding Companies.

These business combinations were accounted for using pooling of interests method. Accordingly, LTG recognized the net assets of the acquired subsidiaries equivalent to their carrying values.

Authorization for Issue of the Consolidated Financial Statements The consolidated financial statements as at December 31, 2015 and 2014 and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2015 were authorized for issue by the BOD on April 12, 2016.

Once the terms have been renegotiated, the loan is no longer considered past Property, Plant and Equipment due. Management continuously reviews restructured loans to ensure Property, plant and equipment, other than land and land improvements, that all criteria are met and that future payments are likely to occur. The plant buildings and building improvements, and machineries and loans continue to be subject to an individual or collective impairment equipment, are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and assessment, calculated using the loan’s original EIR. The difference amortization and any impairment in value. between the recorded value of the original loan and the present value of the restructured cash flows, discounted at the original EIR, is recognized The initial cost of property, plant and equipment consists of its purchase in “Provision for impairment and credit losses” in the consolidated price and any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to its statement of income. working condition and location for its intended use and any estimated cost of dismantling and removing the property, plant and equipment AFS investments item and restoring the site on which it is located to the extent that the For AFS investments, the Group assesses at each reporting date Group had recognized the obligation of that cost. Such cost includes whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of the cost of replacing part of the property, plant and equipment if the financial assets is impaired. In case of equity investments classified recognition criteria are met. When significant parts of property, plant as AFS investments, this would include a significant or prolonged and equipment are required to be replaced in intervals, the Group decline in the fair value of the investments below its cost. Where recognizes such parts as individual assets with specific useful lives there is evidence of impairment, the cumulative loss - measured as and depreciation, respectively. Likewise, when a major inspection is the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, performed, its cost is recognized in the carrying amount of property, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognized plant and equipment as a replacement if the recognition criteria are in the consolidated statement of income - is removed from equity and satisfied. All other repair and maintenance costs are expensed in the recognized in the consolidated statement of income. Impairment losses consolidated statement of income as incurred. Borrowing costs incurred on equity investments are not reversed through the consolidated during the construction of a qualifying asset is likewise included in the initial cost of property, plant and equipment. In the case of debt instruments classified as AFS investments, impairment is assessed based on the same criteria as financial assets carried at Land and land improvements, plant buildings and building improvements, amortized cost. However, the amount recorded for impairment is the and machineries and equipment are stated at revalued amounts based cumulative loss measured as the difference between the amortized cost on a valuation performed by professionally qualified, accredited and and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that investment independent appraisers. Revaluation is made every three to five years previously recognized in profit or loss. Future interest income is based such that the carrying amount does not differ materially from that which on the reduced carrying amount and is accrued based on the rate of would be determined using fair value at the end of reporting period. interest used to discount future cash flows for the purpose of measuring For subsequent revaluations, the accumulated depreciation at the date impairment loss. Such accrual is recorded as part of ‘Interest income’ in of revaluation is restated proportionately with the change in the gross the consolidated statement of income. If subsequently, the fair value of carrying amount of the asset so that the carrying amount of the asset a debt instrument increased and the increase can be objectively related after revaluation equals the revalued amount. Any resulting increase in to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognized in the the asset’s carrying amount as a result of the revaluation is credited consolidated statement of income, the impairment loss is reversed directly to “Revaluation increment on property, plant and equipment, through the consolidated statement of income. net of related deferred income tax effect” (presented as part of “Other comprehensive income” in the equity section of the consolidated Offsetting of Financial Instruments balance sheet).

The amount of the revaluation increment transferred enforceable right of offset if the right is not contingent on a future event, would be the difference between the depreciation and amortization and is legally enforceable in the normal course of business, event of based on the revalued carrying amount of the asset and depreciation default, and event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Group and all of and amortization based on the asset’s original cost. In case the asset the counterparties. is retired or disposed of, the related remaining revaluation increment is transferred directly to retained earnings. Transfers from revaluation Other Current Assets increment to retained earnings are not made through profit or loss. Prepayments are expenses paid in advance and recorded as asset before they are utilized. This account comprises mainly of prepaid importation As discussed in Note 1, certain assets and liabilities of FTC were charges and excise tax, prepaid rentals and insurance premiums and transferred by the Group as capital contribution to PMFTC. Such other prepaid items, and creditable withholding tax. Prepaid rentals and properties transferred include revaluation increment on depreciable insurance premiums and other prepaid items are apportioned over the property, plant and equipment amounting to P4.6 billion. Thus, the period covered by the payment and charged to the appropriate accounts carrying value of the net assets transferred to PMFTC, including the in the consolidated statement of income when incurred. revaluation increment, plus the fair value adjustment at the date of transfer, was deemed as the historical cost of such assets for PMFTC. Prepaid importation charges are applied to respective asset accounts, i.e., inventories and equipment, as part of their direct cost once Upon transfer in 2010, the Group realized through retained earnings importation is complete. Prepaid excise taxes are applied to inventory portion of its share in the net appraisal increase from the previous as part of its cost once related raw material item is consumed in the revaluation of FTC’s property, plant and equipment amounting to production.

The liability is total liability for policies in force on the reporting date. Such reserves not discounted for the time value of money and includes provision are established at amounts adequate to meet the estimated future for IBNR. No provision for equalization or catastrophic reserves is obligations of all life insurance policies in force. The reserves are recognized. The liability is derecognized when the contract has calculated using actuarial methods and assumptions in accordance with expired, discharged or cancelled. statutory requirements and as approved by the Insurance Commission (IC), subject to the minimum liability adequacy test. Liability Adequacy Test Liability adequacy tests on life insurance contracts are performed Unit-linked insurance contracts annually to ensure the adequacy of the insurance contract liabilities. PNB LLI issues unit-linked insurance contracts. Considerations received In performing these tests, current best estimates of future contractual from unit-linked insurance contracts, in excess of the portion that is cash flows, claims handling and policy administration expenses are placed under a withdrawable segregated account, are recognized as used. Any deficiency is immediately charged against profit or loss revenue. initially by establishing a provision for losses arising from the liability adequacy tests. PNB LLI’s revenue from unit-linked contracts consists of charges deducted from the policyholder’s separate account, in accordance For nonlife insurance contracts, liability adequacy tests are performed with the unit-linked policy contract. Since the segregated fund assets at the end of each reporting date to ensure the adequacy of insurance belong to the unit-linked policyholders, corresponding segregated contract liabilities, net of related DAC assets. The provision for unearned fund liabilities are set-up equal to the segregated fund assets less premiums is increased to the extent that the future claims and expenses redemptions outside the segregated funds. The segregated fund in respect of current insurance contracts exceed future premiums plus assets are valued at market price. Changes in the segregated fund the current provision for unearned premiums. assets due to investment earnings or market value fluctuations result in the same corresponding change in the segregated fund liabilities. Reserve for Policyholders’ Dividends Such changes in fund value have no effect in the consolidated A number of insurance contracts are participating and contain a DPF. statement of income. This feature entitles the policy holder to receive, as a supplement to guaranteed benefits, annual policy dividends that are credited at Collections received from unit-linked policies are separated to each policy anniversary, as long as the policy is in force. These annual segregated fund assets from which PNB LLI withdraws administrative policy dividends represent a portion of the theoretical investment and and cost of insurance charges in accordance with the policy provisions underwriting gains from the pool of contracts. Policy dividends are not of the unit-linked insurance contracts. After deduction of these charges, guaranteed and may change based on the periodic experience review the remaining amounts in the segregated fund assets are equal to the of the Group. Further, in accordance with regulatory requirements, surrender value of the unit-linked policyholders, and are withdrawable dividends payable in the following year are prudently set-up as a liability anytime. in the consolidated balance sheet.

The equity of each unit-linked policyholder in the fund is monitored Local statutory regulations and the terms and conditions of these contracts through the designation of outstanding units for each policy. Hence, the set out the bases for the determination of the annual cash dividends at the equity of each unit-linked insurance contract in the fund is equal to the time the product is priced. The Group may exercise its discretion to revise total number of outstanding units of the policyholder multiplied by the the dividend scale in consideration of the emerging actual experience on net asset value per unit (NAVPU). The NAVPU is the market value of the each block of participating policies. Reserve for dividends to policyholders fund divided by the total number of outstanding units. on contracts with DPF is shown in the consolidated balance sheet under “Other noncurrent liabilities”.

Valuation of property, plant and equipment under revaluation basis The Group’s land and land improvements, plant buildings and Aggregate reserves for life insurance building improvements, and machineries and equipment are In determining the aggregate reserves for life policies estimates are made carried at revalued amounts, which approximate their fair values as to the expected number of deaths, illness or injury for each of the at the date of the revaluation, less any subsequent accumulated years in which PNB LII is exposed to risk.

PNB measures the sensitivity of its assets and liabilities the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities. to interest rate fluctuations by way of a “repricing gap” analysis using the repricing characteristics of its financial instrument During a period of rising interest rates, a company with a positive gap is better positions tempered with approved assumptions. To evaluate positioned because the company’s assets are refinanced at increasingly higher earnings exposure, interest rate sensitive liabilities in each time interest rates increasing the net interest margin of the company over time. band are subtracted from the corresponding interest rate assets During a period of falling interest rates, a company with a positive gap would to produce a “repricing gap” for that time band. The difference show assets repricing at a faster rate than one with a negative gap, which may in the amount of assets and liabilities maturing or being repriced restrain the growth of its net income or result in a decline in net interest income. over a one year period would then give the banking segment an indication of the extent to which it is exposed to the risk of For risk management purposes, the repricing gap covering the one year potential changes in net interest income. A negative gap occurs period is multiplied by an assumed change in interest rates to yield an when the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities exceeds the approximation of the change in net interest income that would result amount of interest rate sensitive assets. Vice versa, positive gap from such an interest rate movement.

The banking segment’s BOD sets a limit on the level of earnings at risk (EaR) exposure tolerable to the banking segment. Compliance to the EaR limit is monitored monthly by the RMG. This EaR computation is accomplished monthly, with a quarterly stress test.

The Group’s management determines the policies and procedures for The methods and assumptions used by the Group in estimating the fair both recurring and non-recurring fair value measurement. value of the financial instruments are:

External valuers are involved for valuation of significant assets, such as Cash equivalents - Carrying amounts approximate fair values due to the investment properties, land and land improvements, plant buildings and relatively short-term maturity of these investments. building improvements and machineries and equipment. Involvement of external valuers is decided upon annually by management. Selection Debt securities - Fair values are generally based upon quoted market criteria include market knowledge, reputation, independence and prices. If the market prices are not readily available, fair values are whether professional standards are maintained. Management decides, obtained from independent parties offering pricing services, estimated after discussions with the Group’s external valuers, which valuation using adjusted quoted market prices of comparable investments or techniques and inputs to use for each case. using the discounted cash flow methodology.
