Haw Par Corporation Limited

CHAIRMANS STATEMENT

The Leisure Division will continue to launch new exhibits and activities to increase visitorship in our three oceanariums.

Annual Repor 2010 Annual Report 2010 a Report p

The Groups performance in 2010 was fuelled by a strong economic recovery in Singapore and the region. The Groups earnings increased by 97% to $112.8 million for 2010 (2009: $57.2 million). This was largely attributable to the rebound of investment properties capital value, higher earnings of associated companies and higher investment income. Our Healthcare Division benetted from improved consumer condence in major markets. Sales increased by 7% to $79.1 million and prot rose by 4% to $16.2 million in 2010. Despite a swift recovery of the tourism industry, performance of the Leisure Division was hindered by heightened competition and higher operating expenses.

As a consequence, there was a 7% decline in prots to $12.6 million. The Property Division also experienced an 11% drop in prots to $12.3 million because new rental rates were below the rates achieved at the peak of 2008. The Groups associated company, Hua Han BioPharmaceuticals Holdings Limited, continued to do well. During the year under review, one of its subsidiaries was listed in Hong Kong. The Groups share of profits from Hua Han, together with a dilution gain, amounted to $ 23.5 million, an increase of 210% from 2009.

CHAIRMANS STATEMENT

DIVIDEND The Board recommends a second and final tax exempt (one-tier) dividend of 14 cents per share. Together with the interim dividend of 6 cents paid last September, the total dividend per share for financial year ended 31 December 2010 would amount to 20 cents per share, the same rate as 2009. HIGHLIGHTS OF OPERATIONS To strengthen the global presence of Tiger Balm, the Healthcare Division focused on expanding the line of product offerings in key markets thereby broadening its consumer base. Tiger Balm Neck & Shoulder Rub, for example, succeeded in entering several major chains of drugstores in the United States. Focused advertising and promotional efforts augmented the broad-based growth momentum across major markets. Underwater World Singapore, equipped with a new interactive Dolphin Lagoon, continued to actively engage in marketing and public relation efforts to attract increasing number of visitors to Sentosa. Underwater World Pattaya also increased its efforts to expand foreign and local visitorship. The newly opened oceanarium in Chengdu, Sichuan faced challenges to breakeven. 2011 BUSINESS OUTLOOK AND STRATEGY Singapores economic growth is expected to moderate in 2011 after the economys strong rebound in 2010. Coupled with increasing competition and rising costs, the business environment will be challenging.

In response to these challenges, the Group will continue to pursue revenue growth for its healthcare business, by introducing more products that will appeal to a larger group of consumers and by conducting more intensive marketing. The Leisure Division will continue to launch new exhibits and activities to increase visitorship at Underwater World Singapore, Underwater World Pattaya and the Chengdu Haw Par Oceanarium. With a strong balance sheet, the Group will continue to look for new investment opportunities while maintaining steady progress in our core businesses. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank management and staff for their hard work and dedication, and our shareholders and business associates for their continuing support. I would also like to record my deepest appreciation to my fellow Board members for their wise counsel and guidance. On behalf of the Board, I would also like to record our deep appreciation to Director, Dr Lim Kee Ming, who has decided not to offer himself for re-appointment at this years annual general meeting.

Healthcare
The world economic environment remained challenging in 2010. While some of our markets saw slight economic recovery, there were others, such as the United States, where the rate of recovery was slow. Our business in the Middle Eastern countries recorded satisfactory growth. The management focused on winning and growing market shares by leveraging on the brand equity, launching line extensions and stepping up its advertising and promotion efforts in selective markets. In the United States, for example, the distribution for our newly launched Tiger Balm Neck & Shoulder Rub expanded nationwide with the addition of major chain stores to its distribution network, including Walgreens US largest drugstore chain. Our global website was revamped in line with our efforts for better communication with our consumers. In Singapore, we widened our Tiger Balm plaster range by launching the new Tiger Balm Ultra Thin Patch with the aim to give our consumers a wider choice in this very competitive category.

OPERATIONS REVIEW

Hundreds of people born in the Year of the Tiger joined Thailands Roaring Tiger 2010 where ve lucky participants won trips to Singapore - Home of Tiger Balm.

Our sponsorship of marathons and health fairs provided us with a marketing platform to broaden the awareness and consumer trials of Tiger Balm amongst sports enthusiasts and tness conscious consumers in a relevant and engaging way. We also supported this new introduction with effective print and bus advertising campaigns. Entering 2011, we are cognizant of the challenges ahead. Trading situations are expected to become more complex with changes in the retail and distribution arena due to the acquisitions and mergers taking place in the healthcare industry.

The regulatory climate in many markets is becoming more stringent imposing heavier demands that increase the costs and time to market products. Inationary pressure and rising raw materials costs are leading to increased operational costs in many countries. Amidst the challenges, we continue to position our company for the future as we take important strides to continue with our launching of line extensions in our markets and our work on a slate of new products that will address lifestyle needs of modern consumers, leveraging on the Tiger Balm equity.

Home of the Pink Dolphins: Underwater World Singapores new Dolphin Lagoon

Leisure
UNDERWATER WORLD SINGAPORE 2010 continued to be a challenging year for Underwater World Singapore (UWS). With the opening of Integrated Resorts in Singapore, competition among attractions heightened. Despite the competitive environment, UWS, aided by a new Dolphin Lagoon, proved to be resilient and recorded a modest year-on-year increase in visitorship over 2009. Through increasing advertising spent and stepping up public relations efforts, UWS succeeded in capturing and sustaining mindshare. To stay ahead of the curve, UWS continued its effort in redening the oceanarium experience by introducing new products that were responsive to the changing tourism landscape in Singapore. In conjunction with the local mid-year school holidays, UWS collaborated with the Singapores National Library Board (NLB) to offer the rst underwater story-telling session in Singapore. During the weekends, librarians took turns to dive into the Giant Arapaima Tank and to narrate marine-related stories underwater using a deepsea communication system from the United States and waterproof visuals from the storybooks.

Over two years in the making, the facility located within UWS features a 600-seat sheltered viewing grandstand and an elevated air-conditioned gallery that overlooks the performance area, providing visitors with greater convenience and comfort, and serving as a unique venue for corporate events. Mr S Iswaran, Senior Minister of State for Trade and Industry and Education, graced the occasion as the Guest-of-Honour. UWS was one of the venues for the I Do Weddings 2010, a mass wedding solemnisation ceremony for 118 couples that was supported by the Ministry of Community Development, Youth and Sports of Singapore and held in Sentosa on 10 October 2010. Four couples exchanged their vows by the Dolphin Lagoon while one couple took the plunge into the Reef Colony Tank and tied the knot underwater amongst hundreds of marine creatures. The unique weddings at UWS attracted media attention and garnered mainstream media coverage. The overall interest in the Integrated Resorts will remain strong and downstream competition among the other attractions is expected to stay intense in 2011. However, there are good reasons to be optimistic. The opening of the new Dolphin Lagoon coupled with intensied sales and marketing efforts this year have shown indications of positive impact in the second half of the year. A certain amount of this momentum is expected to carry through into 2011. The scheduled reopening of Rasa Shangri-La Sentosa, a 500-room hotel situated next to UWS, in January 2011, is envisaged to boost visitorship.

UNDERWATER WORLD PATTAYA In 2010, Underwater World Pattaya (UWP) performed satisfactorily despite the instability in Thailand. Taking advantage of the improved climate for tourism in 2010, UWP leveraged its networks to grow both foreign and local visitorship, working closely with the Tourism Authority of Thailand and with other partners such as travel agents, museums and the media. During the Songkran Festival, Thailands New Year, in April 2010, UWP, in collaboration with Coke and Charoen Pokphand Group (CP), staged football games for UWP visitors and rolled out a multi-faceted advertising campaign across TV, radio, print and online platforms. In August 2010, Dr Pichai Songchaeng, President of National Science Museum, invited UWP to participate in the National Science and Technology Fair, Thailands largest science and technology festival.

Family Fun: Celebrating Childrens Day at Underwater World Pattaya

In its effort to enhance visitors experience, UWP offered innovative displays with unique themes this year: the Aqua Monsters exhibit, the Ray Pool display and the Koi feeding with milk bottle programme. UWP will continue to face challenges from the instability in Thailand and competition from other attractions. Riding on the momentum from 2010, UWP will forge ahead with concerted marketing efforts to extend their reach to emerging foreign markets and further strengthen their position in the local market. CHENGDU HAW PAR OCEANARIUM The business environment for Chengdu Haw Par Oceanarium (CHPO) was challenging in 2010. The delayed opening of the revamped Chenghua Park where CHPO is situated and the heightened competition resulting from the entry of a new marine theme park located at the outskirt of Chengdu affected the visitorship of CHPO unfavourably. To address the challenges, CHPO introduced innovative programmes that generated publicity to attract visitation. Capitalising on the World Cup fever, CHPO launched an underwater football show in June 2010. An innovative method was developed by CHPO to perform the renowned Sichuan Operas art of Face Change speedy changes of masks underwater, a rst in the world. Launched during Chinas National Day period in October 2010, the underwater Face Change performances were well received. Constantly seeking to engage visitors in new ways, CHPO also offered Turtle and Koi feeding activities for visitors.

While competition from other attractions will continue to pose challenges to CHPO, the Oceanarium is likely to benet from the reported opening of the revamped Chenghua Park in the second half of 2011, which should provide greater accessibility to the Oceanarium. In the longer term, the progressive opening of the nearby Recreation and Business District may further improve the business prospects of CHPO.

OVERVIEW Group earnings for FY2010 soared by 97% to $112.5 million as compared to 2009 mainly due to a gain on revaluation of investment properties and higher prots from associated companies. Group revenue at $129.8 million was 5% higher than 2009. Both Healthcare and Leisure divisions reported positive growth of 7%, offsetting the 8% lower revenue experienced by Property division. Operating prots were 2% higher than 2009 with higher investment income and higher contribution from Healthcare division.

RETURN ON ASSETS EMPLOYED The Group applies a Return of Assets Employed (ROA) measure to evaluate the performance of its business operations. The ROA measures protability of assets utilised by the various operations. ROA for 2010 improved from 3.3% in 2009 to 5.9%, driven by higher earnings. Given a relatively stable asset base, the increase in ROA of healthcare division from 18.1% to 18.8% is a result of favourable broad-based growth in sales and protability. On the other hand, ROA of Leisure division declined from 15.9% to 14.8% due to higher operating expenses incurred at the aquariums while ROA of Property division, which was affected by the softening of ofce rental market during the year, decreased from 8.0% to 7.5%. ROA of the investment division decreased marginally from 3.4% to 3.1%, with the increase in investment income offset by a larger asset base from equity markets recovery during the year.

Managements Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation of financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with the provisions of the Singapore Companies Act (the Act) and Singapore Financial Reporting Standards, and for devising and maintaining a system of internal accounting control sufficient to provide a reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorised use or disposition, that transactions are properly authorised and that they are recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of true and fair profit and loss accounts and statements of financial position and to maintain accountability of assets. Auditors Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Singapore Standards on Auditing. Those Standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance as to whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entitys preparation of financial statements that give a true and fair view 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 entitys 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 financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

These notes form an integral part of and should be read in conjunction with the accompanying financial statements. 1. gEnERAl Haw Par Corporation Limited (the Company) is incorporated and domiciled in Singapore and is listed on the Singapore Exchange. The address of its registered office is as follows: 401 Commonwealth Drive #03-03 Haw Par Technocentre Singapore 149598 The Company is the owner of the Tiger trademarks and is the holding company of the Group. The principal activities of the Company are licensing of the Tiger trademarks and owning investments for long term holding purposes. The principal activities of the Group are as follows: (a) manufacturing, marketing and trading healthcare products; (b) providing leisure-related services; and (c) investing in properties and securities. 2. SIgnIfICAnT ACCOunTIng POlICIES (a) 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 judgment in the process of applying the Groups accounting policies. It also requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates and assumptions. An area involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements is disclosed in Note 3. Interpretations and amendments to published standards effective in 2010 On 1 January 2010, the Group adopted the new or amended FRS and Interpretations to FRS (INT FRS) that are mandatory for application from that date. Changes to the Groups accounting policies have been made as required, in accordance with the transitional provisions in the respective FRS and INT FRS. The following are the new or revised FRS and INT FRS that are relevant to the Groups and Companys accounting policies and adoption of these standards has no material effect on the amounts reported for the current or prior financial years except as disclosed below: FRS 27 (revised) Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2009).

SIgnIfICAnT ACCOunTIng POlICIES (continued) (a) basis of preparation (continued) FRS 27 (revised) requires the effects of all transactions with non-controlling interests to be recorded in equity if there is no change in control and these transactions will no longer result in goodwill or gains and losses. Losses incurred by a subsidiary are allocated to the noncontrolling interest even if the losses exceed the non-controlling interest in the subsidiarys equity. The standard also specifies the accounting when control is lost. Any remaining interest in the entity is re-measured to fair value, and gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss. Please refer to Note 2(c)(1) for the Group revised accounting policy on subsidiaries. The Group has been applying FRS 27 (revised) to transactions with non- controlling interests. FRS 103 (revised) Business Combinations (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2009). FRS 103 (revised) continues to apply the acquisition method to business combinations, with some significant changes. For example, all payments to purchase a business are to be recorded at fair value at the acquisition date, with contingent payments classified as debt subsequently re-measured through the profit or loss. There is a choice on an acquisitionby-acquisition basis to measure the non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the non-controlling interests proportionate share of the acquirees net assets. All acquisition-related costs should be expensed. Please refer to Note 2(c)(1) for the Group revised accounting policy on subsidiaries. As the changes have been implemented prospectively, no adjustments were necessary to any of the amounts previously recognised in the financial statements. There were no transactions with non-controlling interests in the current financial year. Accordingly, these changes do not have any impact on the financial statements for the current financial year. (b) Revenue recognition Revenue comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods and rendering of services, in the ordinary course of the Groups activities, net of goods and services tax, rebates and discounts, and after eliminating sales within the Group. Revenue is recognised as follows: (1) Sale of goods Revenue from sale of goods is recognised when a Group entity has transferred to the customer the significant risks and rewards of the ownership of the goods, and collectibility of the related receivables is reasonably assured. (2) Rendering of services Revenue from services is recognised upon rendering of services. (3) Interest income Interest income is recognised on a time proportion basis using the effective interest method.

SIgnIfICAnT ACCOunTIng POlICIES (continued) (b) Revenue recognition (continued) (4) Dividend income Dividend income from subsidiaries, associated companies and available-for-sale financial assets is recognised when the right to receive payment is established. (5) Rental income Rental income from operating leases on investment properties is recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term. (c) group accounting (1) Subsidiaries (i) Consolidation Subsidiaries are 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 entities are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated but are 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 a subsidiary 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 statement of financial position. 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 of businesses
Annual Report 2010

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

SIgnIfICAnT ACCOunTIng POlICIES (continued) (c) group accounting (continued) (1) Subsidiaries (continued) (ii) Acquisition of businesses (continued) 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 interests proportionate share of the acquirees 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. Please refer to Note 2(e)(1) for the Groups accounting policy on goodwill on acquisition of subsidiaries. (iii) Disposals of subsidiaries or businesses When a change in the Companys 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 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 interest in the entity is remeasured at fair value. The difference between the carrying amount of the retained investment at the date when control is lost and its fair value is recognised in profit or loss. (2) Transactions with non-controlling interests Changes in the Companys ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control is accounted for as transactions with equity owners of the Group. Any changes in the carrying amounts of the non-controlling interest and the fair value of the consideration paid or received, if any, is brought to revenue reserve. Please refer to Note 2(g) for the Companys accounting policy on investments in subsidiaries and associated companies. (3) Associated companies Associated companies are entities over which the Group has significant influence, but not control, generally accompanying a shareholding of between and including 20% and 50% of the voting rights. Investments in associated companies are accounted for in the consolidated financial statements using the equity method of accounting. Investments in associated companies in the consolidated statement of financial position include goodwill (net of accumulated impairment loss) identified on acquisition, where applicable. Please refer to Note 2(e)(1) for the Groups accounting policy on goodwill.

SIgnIfICAnT ACCOunTIng POlICIES (continued) (c) group accounting (continued) (3) Associated companies (continued) Investments in associated companies 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. Goodwill on associated companies represents the excess of the cost of acquisition of the associate over the Groups share of the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the associate and is included in the carrying amount of the investments. In applying the equity method of accounting, the Groups share of its associated companies post-acquisition results net of tax is recognised in the consolidated income statement 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 companies are adjusted against the carrying amount of the investment. When the Groups share of losses in an associated company equals or exceeds its interest in the associated company, 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 company. Unrealised gains on transactions between the Group and its associated companies are eliminated to the extent of the Groups interest in the associated companies. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of associated companies to ensure consistency of accounting policies with those of the Group. Gains and losses arising from partial disposals or dilutions in investments in associated companies are recognised in profit or loss. Investments in associated companies are derecognised when the Group loses significant influence. Any retained interest in the entity is remeasured at its fair value. The difference between the carrying amount of the retained investment at the date when significant influence is lost and its fair value is recognised in profit or loss. Please refer to Note 2(g) for the Companys accounting policy on investments in subsidiaries and associated companies. (d) Property, plant and equipment (1) Leasehold land and buildings Leasehold land and buildings are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses (Note 2(h)(2)). (2) Other property, plant and equipment

SIgnIfICAnT ACCOunTIng POlICIES (continued) (d) Property, plant and equipment (continued) (3) Components of costs The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment 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 dismantlement, removal or restoration is incurred as a consequence of acquiring or using the asset. (4) Depreciation Depreciation is calculated using a straight-line method to allocate the depreciable amounts of property, plant and equipment over their estimated useful lives as follows: Leasehold land and buildings 50 years or over the term of the lease, whichever is shorter 4 to 10 years 5 years

Plant, equipment, furniture and vehicles Marine livestock -

Construction-in-progress assets are not depreciated until they are brought to use. Fully depreciated assets are retained in the financial statements until they are no longer in use. The residual values, estimated useful lives and depreciation method of property, plant and equipment are reviewed, and adjusted as appropriate, at each statement of financial position date to ensure that the method and period of depreciation are consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits from items of property, plant and equipment. The effects of any revision are recognised in the profit or loss for the financial year in which the changes arise. (5) 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 expense is recognised in the profit or loss when incurred. (6) Disposal On disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and its carrying amount is recognised in the profit or loss.

SIgnIfICAnT ACCOunTIng POlICIES (continued) (e) Intangible assets (1) Goodwill Goodwill on acquisitions of subsidiaries on or after 1 January 2010 represents 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 identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill on acquisition of subsidiaries prior to 1 January 2010 represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition of subsidiaries or associated companies over the fair value of the Groups share of their identifiable net assets at the date of acquisition. Goodwill on subsidiaries and joint ventures is recognised separately as intangible assets and carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill on associated companies is included in the carrying amount of the investments. Gains and losses on the disposal of subsidiaries, joint ventures and associated companies include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold, except for goodwill arising from acquisitions prior to 1 January 2001. Such goodwill was adjusted against retained profits in the year of acquisition and is not recognised in profit or loss on disposal. (2) Trademarks Trademarks are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses (Note 2(h)(2)). Amortisation is calculated using the straight line method to allocate the cost of trademarks over a period not exceeding 20 years. These have been fully amortised as at the statement of financial position date. (3) Deferred expenditure Deferred expenditure comprises technology fee paid in advance, clinical trial expenses and television advertisement production costs, which are recognised as assets as they generate future economic benefits. Technology fee expense paid in advance for the use of a third partys technology is amortised using the straight line method over the period of the contract with the third party. Clinical trial expenses incurred for product registrations are amortised using the straight line method over a 5-year period. Television advertisement production costs are amortised using the straight line method over the estimated useful life of approximately 2-3 years. The amortisation period and amortisation method of intangible assets other than goodwill are reviewed at least once at each statement of financial position date. The effects of any revision are recognised in profit or loss when the changes arise.

SIgnIfICAnT ACCOunTIng POlICIES (continued) (f) Investment properties Investment properties of the Group, principally comprising office and industrial buildings, are held for long-term rental yields and/or capital appreciation and are not substantially occupied by the Group. Investment properties are classified as non-current assets, initially recognised at cost and subsequently carried at fair value, determined annually by independent professional valuers. 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 as additions and the carrying amounts of the replaced components are written off to profit or loss. The cost of maintenance, repairs and minor improvement is charged to profit or loss when incurred. On disposal of an investment property, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss. (g) Investments in subsidiaries and associated companies Investments in subsidiaries and associated companies are stated at cost less accumulated impairment losses (Note 2(h)(2)) in the Companys statement of financial position. On disposal of investments in subsidiaries and associated companies, the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the net investment is recognised in profit or loss. (h) Impairment of non-financial assets (1) Goodwill Goodwill, recognised separately as an intangible asset, is tested annually for impairment, as well as when there is any indication that the goodwill may be impaired. For the purpose of impairment testing of goodwill, goodwill is allocated to each of the Groups cash generating units (CGU) expected to benefit from synergies of the business combination. An impairment loss is recognised when the carrying amount of CGU, including the goodwill, exceeds the recoverable amount of the CGU. Recoverable amount of the CGU is the higher of the CGUs fair value less cost to sell and value-in-use.

Annual Report 2010

The total impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of goodwill allocated to the CGU and then to the other assets of the CGU pro-rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the CGU. An impairment loss on goodwill is recognised in profit or loss and is not reversed in a subsequent period.

SIgnIfICAnT ACCOunTIng POlICIES (continued) (h) Impairment of non-financial assets (continued) (2) Intangible assets, Property, plant and equipment and Investments in subsidiaries and associated companies Intangible assets, property, plant and equipment and investments in subsidiaries and associated companies are reviewed for impairment whenever there is any indication that these assets may be impaired. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and value in use) of the asset is estimated to determine the amount of impairment loss. For the purpose of impairment testing of these assets, recoverable amount 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 CGU to which the asset belongs to. 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 impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss. An impairment loss for an asset other than goodwill is reversed if, and only if, there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the assets recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. The carrying amount of an asset other than goodwill is increased to its revised recoverable amount, provided that this amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of accumulated amortisation or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. A reversal of impairment loss for an asset other than goodwill is recognised in profit or loss. (i) financial assets (1) Classification The Group classifies its investments in financial assets in the following categories: loans and receivables, available-for-sale and at fair value through profit or loss. The classification depends on the purpose for which the assets have been acquired. Management determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.
Annual Report 2010

Investments in convertible bonds are analysed into its non-derivative host contract debt securities and its embedded derivative. The non-derivative host contract is accounted for as financial assets, available-for-sale and its embedded derivative is accounted for as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.

SIgnIfICAnT ACCOunTIng POlICIES (continued) (i) financial assets (continued) (1) Classification (continued) (i) Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are included in current assets, except those maturing later than 12 months after the statement of financial position date which are classified as non-current assets. Loans and receivables are classified within Trade and other receivables on the statements of financial position. (ii) Financial assets, available-for-sale Financial assets, available-for-sale are non-derivatives that are either designated in this category or not classified in any of the other categories. (iii) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are financial assets held for trading. A financial asset is classified in this category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short term. Derivatives are also classified as held for trading unless they are designated as hedges. Assets in this category are presented as current assets if they are either held for trading or are expected to be realised within 12 months after the statement of financial position date. (2) Recognition and derecognition Purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on trade-date - the date on which the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or have been transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership. On disposal of a financial asset, the difference between the net sale proceeds and its carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss. Any amount in the fair value reserve relating to that asset is reclassfied in profit or loss. (3) Initial measurement Financial assets are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs except for financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, which are recognised at fair value. Transaction costs for financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately as expenses. (4) Subsequent measurement Financial assets, both available-for-sale and financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are subsequently carried at fair value. Loans and receivables are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

SIgnIfICAnT ACCOunTIng POlICIES (continued) (i) financial assets (continued) (4) Subsequent measurement (continued) Changes in fair values of available-for-sale equity securities (i.e. non-monetary items) denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the fair value reserve, together with the related currency translation differences. Dividend income on available-for-sale equity securities is recognised separately in profit or loss. For investments in the non-derivative host contract of the convertible bonds, interest is calculated using the effective interest method and is recognised in profit or loss as interest income. Changes in the fair value of these non-derivative host contracts are recognised in the fair value reserve. Changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in profit or loss when the changes arise. (5) Impairment The Group assesses at each statement of financial position date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired and recognises an allowance for impairment when such evidence exists. (i) Loans and receivables 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. When the asset becomes uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are recognised against the same line item in profit or loss. The allowance for impairment loss account is reduced through profit or loss in a subsequent period when the amount of impairment loss decreases and the related decrease can be objectively measured. The carrying amount of the asset previously impaired is increased to the extent that the new carrying amount does not exceed the amortised cost had no impairment been recognised in prior periods. (ii) Financial assets, available-for-sale In addition to the objective evidence of impairment described in Note 2(i)(5)(i), a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of an equity security below its cost is considered as an indicator that the available-for-sale financial asset is impaired. If any evidence of impairment exists, the cumulative loss that was recognised in the fair value reserve is reclassified to profit or loss. The cumulative loss is measured as the difference between the acquisition cost (net of any principal repayments and amortisation) and the current fair value, less any impairment loss previously recognised as an expense. The impairment losses recognised as an expense on equity securities are not reversed through profit or loss.

SIgnIfICAnT ACCOunTIng POlICIES (continued) (j) Inventories Inventories are carried at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined on a weighted average basis. The cost of finished goods and work-in-progress comprises raw materials, direct labour, other direct costs and related production overheads (based on normal operating capacity) but exclude borrowing costs. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less applicable variable selling expenses. (k) Operating leases (1) When a group company is the lessee: Leases of property, plant and equipment where a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership is retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease. When an operating lease is terminated before the lease period has expired, any payment required to be made to the lessor by way of penalty is recognised as an expense in the period in which termination takes place. (2) When a group company is the lessor: Leases of investment properties to third parties where the Group assumes substantially all risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the leased assets are classified as operating leases. Rental income (net of any incentives given to lessees) is recognised in the consolidated income statement on a straight-line basis over the lease term. When an operating lease is terminated before the lease period has expired, any payment required to be made by the lessee by way of penalty is recognised as an income in the period in which termination takes place. (l) Trade and other payables Trade and other payables are initially measured at fair value, and subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest method. (m) Income taxes

Annual Report 2010

Current income tax liabilities (and assets) for current and prior periods are 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 statement of financial position date. Deferred income tax assets/liabilities are recognised for all deductible/taxable 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 assets/liabilities arise from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss.

SIgnIfICAnT ACCOunTIng POlICIES (continued) (m) Income taxes (continued) Deferred income tax liability is recognised on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries and associated companies, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. 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. 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 substantively enacted by the statement of financial position date; and based on the tax consequence that would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the statement of financial position date, to recover or settle the carrying amounts of its assets and liabilities.

(ii)

Current and deferred income taxes are recognised as income or expenses in profit or loss for the period, except to the extent that the tax arises from a business combination or a transaction, which is recognised directly in equity. Deferred tax arising from a business combination is adjusted against goodwill on acquisition. (n) Employee benefits (1) Defined contribution plans Defined contribution plans are post-employment benefit plans under which the Group pays fixed contributions into separate entities such as Central Provident Fund on a mandatory, contractual or voluntary basis. The Group has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid. The Groups contribution are recognised as employee expense when they are due, unless they can be capitalised as an asset. (2) Share-based compensation The Group operates an equity-settled, share-based compensation plan. The fair value of the employee services received in exchange for the grant of the options is recognised as an expense in profit or loss with a corresponding increase in share option reserve within equity over the vesting period. The total amount to be recognised over the vesting period is determined by reference to the fair value of the options granted on the date of grant. Non-market vesting conditions are included in the estimation of the number of shares under options that are expected to become exercisable on vesting date. At each statement of financial position date, the Group revises its estimates of the number of shares under options that are expected to become exercisable on vesting date and recognises the impact of the revision of estimates in profit or loss, with a corresponding adjustment to the share option reserve over the remaining vesting period.

SIgnIfICAnT ACCOunTIng POlICIES (continued) (o) Derivative financial instruments and hedging activities A derivative financial instrument is initially recognised at its fair value on the date the contract is entered into and is subsequently carried at its fair value. The method of recognising the resulting gain or loss depends on whether the derivative is designated as a hedging instrument, and if so, the nature of the item being hedged. The Group documents at the inception of the transaction the relationship between the hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objective and strategies for undertaking various hedge transactions. The Group also documents its assessment, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, on whether the derivatives designated as hedging instruments are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows of the hedged items. The Group enters into currency forwards that qualify as cash flow hedges against highly probable forecasted transactions in foreign currencies. The fair value changes on the effective portion of the currency forwards designated as cash flow hedges are recognised in the hedging reserve and transferred to profit or loss when the hedged forecasted transactions affects profit or loss. When the forecasted transaction is no longer expected to occur, the gains and losses that were previously recognised in the hedging reserve are transferred to profit or loss immediately. Fair value in changes on derivatives that are not designated or do not qualify for hedge accounting are recognised in profit or loss when the changes arise. (p) fair value estimation The carrying amounts of current financial assets and liabilities, carried at amortised cost, are assumed to approximate their fair values. The fair values of financial instruments traded in active markets (such as exchange-traded and over-the-counter securities and derivatives) are based on quoted market prices obtained from stock exchange at the statement of financial position date. The quoted market prices used for financial assets held by the Group are the current bid prices; the appropriate quoted market prices for financial liabilities are the current asking prices. The fair values of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market are determined by using valuation techniques. The Group uses a variety of methods such as estimated discounted cash flow analyses. The fair values of currency forwards are determined using actively quoted forward exchange rates provided by reputable financial institutions.

SIgnIfICAnT ACCOunTIng POlICIES (continued) (q) Currency translation (1) 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 (the functional currency). The consolidated financial statements of the Group are presented in Singapore Dollar, which is the Companys functional currency. (2) Transactions and balances Transactions in a currency other than the functional currency (foreign currency) are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of transactions. Currency translation gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the closing rates at the statement of financial position date are recognised in the profit or loss, except for currency translation differences on the net investment in foreign operations, borrowings in foreign currencies and other currency instruments designated and qualifying as net investment hedges for foreign operations, which are included in the foreign currency translation reserve within equity in the consolidated financial statements and transferred to profit or loss of the gain or loss on disposal of the foreign operation. Non-monetary items that are measured at fair values in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair values are determined. Currency translation differences on non-monetary items whereby gains or losses are recognised directly in equity, such as equity investments classified as available-for-sale financial assets are included in the fair value reserve. (3) Translation of Group entities financial statements The results and financial position of Group entities (none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary economy) that are in functional currencies different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows: (i) (ii) Assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rates at the date of the statement of financial position; Income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates (unless this 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 at the dates of the transactions); and All resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in currency translation reserve within equity.

(s) Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash and bank balances, deposits with financial institutions and bank overdrafts, if any. (t) Share capital 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 the Companys ordinary shares are repurchased, the weighted average cost of each share is written off against the share capital, with the remaining amounts written off against the retained earnings of the Company. (u) Dividends Interim dividends are recorded during the financial year in which they are declared payable. Final dividends are recorded in the financial year in which the dividends are approved by the shareholders. (v) government grants Grants from the government are recognised as a receivable at their fair value when 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. (w) financial guarantees The Company had issued corporate guarantees to banks for credit facilities of its subsidiaries. These guarantees are financial guarantee contracts as they require the Company to reimburse the banks if the subsidiaries fail to make principal or interest payments when due in accordance with terms of their credit facilities.

Annual Report 2010

Financial guarantee contracts are initially recognised at their fair values plus transaction costs in the Companys statement of financial position. Financial guarantee contracts are subsequently amortised to profit or loss over the period of the subsidiaries borrowings, unless it is probable that the Company will reimburse the bank for an amount higher than the unamortised amount. In this case, the financial guarantee contracts shall be carried at the expected amount payable to the bank in the Companys statement of financial position. Intragroup transactions are eliminated on consolidation.

CRITICAl ACCOunTIng ESTImATES AnD juDgmEnTS Estimates, assumptions and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal to the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below. Impairment of goodwill and property, plant and equipment The Group tests annually whether goodwill and property, plant and equipment have suffered any impairment, in accordance with the accounting policy stated in Note 2(h)(1) and Note 2(h)(2) respectively. The recoverable amounts of these assets and where applicable, cash-generating units, have been determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculations require the use of estimates. Based on the positive recoverable amount that exceeded the carrying amount of goodwill and property, plant and equipment, there is no impairment. As the estimates and assumptions used are reasonably conservative, it will require a significant variation to the estimates and assumptions to result in any impairment adjustments. Please refer to Note 15(a) for details on goodwill impairment tests.

The diluted earnings per share is adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares. The Company has one category of dilutive potential ordinary shares which is share options. A calculation is carried out to determine the number of shares that could have been issued at fair value (determined as the average annual market share price of the Companys shares) based on the monetary value of the subscription rights attached to outstanding share options. The number of shares calculated is compared with the number of shares that would have been issued assuming the exercise of the share options. The difference is added to the denominator as an issuance of ordinary shares for no consideration. No adjustment is made to earnings (numerator).

InTAngIblE ASSETS (continued) (a) Goodwill on consolidation The group 2010 2009 $000 $000 Cost Balance at beginning and end of financial year Impairment tests for goodwill The goodwill is allocated to the healthcare division of the Group, which is regarded as a cashgenerating unit (CGU). During the financial year, the Group has determined that there is no impairment of its CGU containing the goodwill. The recoverable amount (i.e. higher of value-in-use and fair value less costs to sell) of the CGU is determined on the basis of value-in-use calculations. These calculations incorporate cash flow projections by management covering a twenty-year period. Key assumptions used for value-in-use calculations: Discount rate Growth rate 9.40% (2009: 9.57%) 0.00% (2009: 0.00%)

11,116

11,116

These assumptions have been used for the analysis of the CGU. The discount rate used is post-tax and reflects specific risks relating to the healthcare division. Management has determined a 0% growth rate on grounds of prudence.

(b) The Company operates the Haw Par Corporation Group 2002 Share Option Scheme (2002 Scheme). The 2002 Scheme was approved by members of the Company on 22 May 2002. The 2002 Scheme grants non-transferable options to selected employees and includes the participation by the non-executive directors. The maximum life-span of exercising the options is 10 years (exercise period). The options are exercisable beginning on the first anniversary from the date when the options are granted or the second anniversary if the options are granted at a discount to the market price under the 2002 Scheme. Once the options are vested, they are exercisable for a period of four years. The options may be exercised in full or in part in respect of 1,000 shares or any multiple thereof, on the payment of the exercise price. The Group has no legal or constructive obligation to repurchase or settle the options in cash. The exercise price is equivalent to the average of the last dealt price for the share for five consecutive market days immediately before the offer date (market price) at the time of grant and can be set at discounts of up to 20% to the market price under the 2002 Scheme. During the financial year, options for 386,000 shares were granted to qualifying employees on 1 March 2010 (2010 Options), of which 8,000 had been subsequently cancelled. The fair value of the options granted using the Trinomial valuation model is approximately $508,000. The significant inputs into the model are exercise price of $5.86 at the grant date, standard deviation of expected share price returns of 33%, 5-year option life and annual risk-free interest rate of 0.25%. The volatility measured at the standard deviation of expected share price returns is based on statistical analysis of daily share prices over a historical period that matches the period to expiry of the options. The 2010 options are exercisable from 1 March 2011 and expire on 28 February 2015. 17,719 1,350 450 19,519 17,142 1,375 214 18,731
