LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS

DEAR SHAREHOLDERS,2010 marked the first full year of CapitaMalls Asia’s (CMA) operations since we were listed on the Singapore Exchange (SGX) on 25 November 2009. It was also a year that the world economy rebounded from the global financial crisis of early 2009 with Asian economies leading the way, posting either double-digit or high single-digit growth.

In a time of rapid economic expansion and increasing consumer optimism, we took the opportunity to grow our presence in the region. In 2010, we committed almost S$2.0 billion to acquire six shopping malls in Singapore, China and Malaysia – double our stated target of S$800.0 million to S$1.0 billion.

We also took steps to proactively manage and recycle our capital, to strengthen our balance sheet and enhance our competitive advantage for investments in new projects. In 2010, we monetised Clarke Quay to our associate CapitaMall Trust (CMT). We also successfully listed CapitaMalls Malaysia Trust (CMMT) on the Main Market of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad, making it the country’s largest “pure-play” shopping mall real estate investment trust (REIT).

While economic growth is expected to moderate this year from the previous year’s highs, Asia will still lead the world with projected growth of 8.4% (International Monetary Fund). Singapore’s economy is forecast to grow by 4.0% to 6.0%, the giant economies of China and India are expected to grow 9.6% and 8.4% respectively, and Malaysia is projected to expand 5.3%. We are well-positioned to ride this rising tide as we have 91 shopping malls in 49 cities in the four countries, as well as Japan, as at 31 December 2010. Our portfolio has a total property value of about S$23.7 billion and a total gross floor area (GFA) of about 73.4 million sq ft.

We thank you for your support in our first full year of operations. On behalf of the Board and management of CMA, we are pleased to share with you our 2010 performance and our plans for 2011.

STRONG SET OF FINANCIAL RESULTSIn 2010, CMA recorded profit after tax and minority interests (PATMI) of S$421.9 million, an 8.7% increase over the S$388.1 million in 2009. Earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) came in at S$472.4 million. Revenue under management was S$1,359.1 million, 5.6% higher than the S$1,287.0 million in 2009. As at 31 December 2010, we managed 65 operational malls and had another 26 malls under development.

As we continue to focus on growth, we will reinvest our capital while also repaying you, our shareholders, for your support in a sustainable and growing manner. The Directors are pleased to propose a dividend of 2.00 cents per share for 2010, double our payout in 2009.

PROACTIVE CAPITAL MANAGEMENTAs part of our capital management strategy, we actively recycled capital for reinvestments and diversified our sources of funding. We recycled about S$500.0 million through the monetisation of Clarke Quay to CMT for S$268.0 million, as well as S$228.0 million from the listing of CMMT.

Our wholly-owned subsidiary, CapitaMalls Asia Treasury Limited (CMATL), issued S$350.0 million of 7-year corporate bonds paying 3.95% per annum, under a S$2.0 billion Euro-Medium Term Note (EMTN) programme. Sensing demand from retail investors, CMATL launched the first series of retail bonds to the public in Singapore in January 2011. S$200.0 million worth of 1-year and 3-year bonds, which carry interest payments of 1.00% and 2.15% per annum respectively, were issued to cater to demand

“In a time of rapid economic expansion and increasing consumer optimism, we took the opportunity to grow our presence in the region.”

LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS

from individual investors looking for attractive fixed income vis-à-vis other investments, deriving assurance from the underlying income resilience of our portfolio of shopping malls. The public offer was about 1.82 times subscribed, and the bonds started trading on SGX on 24 January 2011.

The proceeds from both the corporate and retail bonds will go towards the financing of our investments in new projects. We are heartened by the strong response to the bonds and we will consider subsequent series launches of both the corporate and retail bonds in 2011.

Our healthy balance sheet and sound business model continues to accord us the necessary financial flexibility in seizing acquisition opportunities when they become available.

REVIEW OF 2010In Singapore, CMA and CapitaLand Residential Singapore successfully tendered for a site at Bedok town centre in September 2010. The site is located right in the heart of Singapore’s largest residential population with a catchment of about 300,000 people. It will be developed into a mixed-use development comprising a two-storey shopping mall and about 500 residential apartments.

When completed in 2014, the shopping mall will be seamlessly connected to Bedok’s transportation hub made up of a bus interchange and Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) station. The acquisition has also strengthened our position as the retail real estate market leader in Singapore.

The Orchard Residences, the luxury premier residential apartments above ION Orchard, received its Temporary Occupation Permit (TOP) in October 2010. In the same month, we launched ION Sky, the observatory deck located above The Orchard Residences on Levels 55 and 56. ION Sky commands a breathtaking and unrivalled 360-degree view from the highest point in Orchard Road. We also brought in Luke Mangan, Australia’s highly acclaimed celebrity chef, to open his first restaurant in Southeast Asia, Salt Grill and Bar, at ION Sky.

Construction of the Integrated Civic, Cultural, Retail and Entertainment Hub at one-north, which we own, with a shopping mall located from Basement one to Level three of the development, is progressing well. We target to complete and open the shopping mall by the end of 2012. The shopping mall will be a lifestyle destination offering shopping, dining and chill-out options amidst lush greenery – the first of its kind in Singapore. The recent announcement by MediaCorp to relocate to Mediapolis@one-north and the upcoming completion of the private residential apartments in the vicinity bode well for the demand of the mall.

In China, we opened five malls in 2010: Aidemengdun Mall in Harbin, Cuiwei Mall in Beijing, Anyang Mall in Anyang, Jinshui Mall in Zhengzhou and Xinxiang Mall in Xinxiang, giving us a total of 38 operational malls. Over the years, our operations and capability in China have evolved and continue to improve robustly. We now have more than 2,200 staff in China, organised around six regions and our malls are performing well to our expectations.

We continue to witness and believe in the growing consumerism in China, committing more than S$1.2 billion in four new projects in 2010. In Shanghai, we acquired a 66.00% effective stake in a prime shopping mall and office development in Luwan district and 17.10% stake in Raffles City Changning – the second Raffles City in Shanghai. These acquisitions have deepened our presence in one of the fastest-growing global financial centres, with a portfolio of six shopping malls.

Over in Chengdu, we acquired Meili Mall as well as an integrated development in Tianfu, made up of a shopping mall, a residential tower and an office tower. With these acquisitions, we have expanded our portfolio in western China to 11 malls of which eight are in Sichuan Province, with a cluster of five in Chengdu.

8 CAPITAMALLS ASIA LIMITED REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS 2010

Page 11: CapitaMalls Asia Annual Report 2010

As at 31 December 2010, we had 53 shopping malls in 34 cities in China, with a total GFA of 48.6 million sq ft.

In Malaysia, we listed CMMT, Malaysia’s largest “pure-play” shopping mall REIT by market capitalisation and property value, on Bursa Malaysia in July 2010. This signifies our commitment to growing our presence in the country, one of our key markets, as well as enhances our financial flexibility to seize acquisition opportunities by providing CMMT with direct access to domestic and international investors.

CMMT will be CMA’s designated listed vehicle to hold our stabilised Malaysia shopping malls. CMMT has an attractive initial portfolio of three established shopping malls, namely Gurney Plaza in Penang, an interest of about 61.9% in the retail area of Sungei Wang Plaza in Kuala Lumpur, and The Mines in Selangor.

We will continue to exploit the country’s fragmented mall ownership scene and acquire both operating malls as well as develop new ones. We also plan to set up a RM1.0 billion Malaysia retail property fund to acquire and/or develop retail properties, primarily shopping malls.

In December, CMA acquired a stake of about 90.70% in Queensbay Mall, Penang’s largest shopping mall, which will form the seed asset for the planned retail property fund. Gurney Plaza, which we already own through CMMT and manage; and Queensbay Mall are the two best malls in Penang, and this acquisition will substantially strengthen our market leadership in the state. We are confident of leveraging on our scale and expertise to upgrade Queensbay Mall through remixing the tenancy as well as improving the asset plan to realise its potential, to raise its property yield beyond its current 5.0%.

As for Japan, we completed asset enhancement works at our largest shopping mall in the country, Vivit Square in Tokyo. The revamped shopping mall reopened in August 2010 with two new popular anchor tenants, Mr. Max discount store and Nojima home electronics store, as well as 52 other specialty stores and a supermarket. In 2010, the mall received a total of 4.8 million shoppers and recorded ¥7.6 billion worth of sales which translate into about 105.0% and 118.0% year-on-year increases respectively.

Over in India, our operating shopping mall, Forum Value Mall in Bangalore achieved net property income (NPI) growth of about 300.0% in its first full year of operations in 2010, compared to 2009. Our second shopping mall, The Celebration Mall in Udaipur, has secured all its anchor tenants and will be opening in early 2011.

CAPITAMALL TRUSTAs at 31 December 2010, CMA had a 29.85% effective stake in CMT. In 2010, CMT recorded a distribution per unit (DPU) of 9.24 cents, 4.6% higher than the DPU of 8.85 cents in 2009. This was achieved on the back of the improved economic conditions, increased visitor arrivals and healthy consumer spending due to low unemployment of less than 2.2% in Singapore.

Groundbreaking for the asset enhancement works for JCube (formerly known as Jurong Entertainment Centre) took place in May 2010. When completed in early 2012, the mall will boast over 200,000 sq ft of net lettable area (NLA) and will house an Olympic-size ice rink – the only one in Singapore.

Asset enhancement works for The Atrium@Orchard commenced in January 2011 and will be completed end of next year. Nearly 127,000 sq ft of retail space will be created, increasing the NLA of The Atrium@Orchard six-fold. It will be integrated with Plaza Singapura to create a combined NLA of about 625,000 sq ft – almost equal to the size of ION Orchard.

CAPITAMALLS ASIA LIMITED REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS 2010 9

Page 12: CapitaMalls Asia Annual Report 2010

CAPITARETAIL CHINA TRUSTAs at 31 December 2010, CMA had a 27.35% effective stake in CapitaRetail China Trust (CRCT). In 2010, CRCT recorded NPI of RMB382.3 million, up 5.8% over 2009. This strong performance was achieved as China’s economy grew 10.3%, while its total retail sales of consumer goods increased 18.4% to RMB15.5 trillion.

CRCT continued to extract organic growth from its malls through active tenancy remixing to enhance their retail offerings. These included Xizhimen Mall in Beijing; Qibao Mall in Shanghai; and Xinwu Mall in Wuhu, Anhui Province. At Saihan Mall in Huhhot, Inner Mongolia, asset enhancement works have been completed, successfully transforming it into a one-stop family shopping, dining and entertainment destination in its locality.

CAPITAMALLS MALAYSIA TRUSTAs at 31 December 2010, CMA had a 41.74% effective stake in CMMT. For the financial period from 14 July 2010 to 31 December 2010, CMMT recorded annualised DPU of 7.26 sen – exceeding its forecast of 7.16 sen as stated in its listing prospectus. This was achieved as Malaysia posted 7.2% economic growth, while retail sales were forecast to have expanded 8.3%.

In November, CMMT announced its acquisition of Gurney Plaza Extension. Opened in 2008, Gurney Plaza Extension is a nine-storey retail extension block adjoining Gurney Plaza with an NLA of nearly 140,000 sq ft. Its tenant mix complements Gurney Plaza and will significantly strengthen CMMT’s presence in Penang.

DEVELOPING HUMAN CAPITAL TO ENABLE OUR SUCCESSIn CMA, we recognise that people are our greatest asset and it is their passion, professionalism, talent and commitment that form the backbone of our success. As at 31 December 2010, we have over 3,000 staff across the five countries in which we operate. Committed to being a learning organisation, we organised

study visits to Australia, Hong Kong, Japan, and the United Kingdom for staff to gain exposure to exciting or new retail trends and mall management concepts in other leading retail centres of the world.

Equally important is hearing the honest feedback from our staff about the company. Employee engagement is critical to making CMA a lasting organisation that staff can be proud of. In October 2010, we conducted a company-wide employee engagement survey to understand what we have done well, what we could do better, and seek feedback on other recommendations employees might have to further the company’s growth. We have shared the results with our employees, and are committed to implementing as many of their practicable suggestions as possible.

EXPANDING OUR ROLE AS A CORPORATE CITIZENReinforcing our commitment to contribute back to society, we extended our corporate social responsibility (CSR) efforts in 2010. Following the success of our “Back to School” event in Singapore in June 2009, we rebranded the programme as “My Schoolbag” from 2010, and expanded its reach exponentially. From 200 children in Singapore in 2009, My Schoolbag benefitted more than 11,000 underprivileged children in both Singapore and China last year, with a total donation of S$320,000 from CMA. This was made possible with funding of S$300,000 from CapitaLand Hope Foundation, the philanthropic arm of CapitaLand.

In Singapore, My Schoolbag benefitted 1,000 underprivileged children. In November 2010, the pupils went on a shopping treat to purchase school and daily necessities at four of our malls.

In China, we donated new schoolbags containing stationery to first-year primary school pupils in 129 schools across 18 cities in China. The timely gift at the start of the new school year in September 2010 brought cheer to more than 10,000 underprivileged children. This was the first

time that we have broadened the reach of My Schoolbag beyond Singapore. Going forward, we target to expand My Schoolbag to our other markets of Malaysia, Japan and India as well.

On 27 March 2010, over 50 of our malls in our five markets participated in Earth Hour for the second consecutive year. Façade and “non-essential” lights were turned off for 10 hours in the “10-hour Lights-Off Celebration” in conjunction with CapitaLand’s 10th Anniversary celebrations.

In Singapore, Raffles City Singapore was conferred the Building and Construction Authority’s Green Mark Gold award. At ION Orchard and Clarke Quay, we have started to recycle food waste into end-products such as compost, which can be used as fertiliser. We plan to extend this to other malls in our Singapore portfolio.

Our malls in Singapore also participated in Green for Hope, a CapitaLand initiative to encourage its tenants, shoppers and serviced residence guests as well as members of the public to go green by recycling and, in doing so, earn donations to benefit underprivileged children from all over Singapore.

In 2010, the 26 participating properties collected a total of 888,555 kilogrammes of recyclable waste and raised S$420,000 to benefit 10 children’s charities. Nine of our malls were among the top 10 performing properties last year: Bugis Junction, Plaza Singapura, Lot One Shopper’s Mall, Bukit Panjang Plaza, ION Orchard, IMM, Junction 8, Funan Digitalife Mall and Tampines Mall.

On the environment front in China, we sought to raise awareness of the environment through recyclable art workshops, green awareness activities and promoting the use of environmentally-friendly shopping bags.

TOWARDS 100+ SHOPPING MALLS IN CHINAWe have an early-mover advantage in China, leveraging on our parent CapitaLand’s presence there since 1994 to open Raffles City Shanghai, our first mall in the country, in 2003. In the eight years since, we have consistently invested an average of about S$2.0 billion in new projects, with the majority of these being in China. We have built up our capabilities and teams on the ground and organised the structure to enable us to execute faster, with China divided into six regions and headed by a country CEO.

Going forward, our focus remains on growing in our key markets of Singapore, China and Malaysia. We target to acquire another S$2.0 billion of new projects this year, as part of our plan to double our portfolio in China to over 100 malls in the coming three to five years.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTSWe would like to thank all our shareholders, business partners, associates and staff, for their strong support in our first full year since listing. We look forward to your continued support and partnership as we grow and seek new opportunities in the next few years.

尊敬的各位股东:2010年是嘉德商用有限公司(CMA)自2009年11月25日在新加坡交易所(SGX)上市以来的第一个完整营业年度,同时也是亚洲各经济体以两位数或较高个位数的增长速度,引领世界经济从2009年初的全球经济危机中触底反弹的一年。

随着经济的快速增长以及消费者信心的日益高涨,我们抓住有利时机,强化在区域内的表现。2010年,我们投资近20亿新元,收购位于新加坡、中国和马来西亚的6个购物中心,投资额为原定目标8到10亿新元的两倍。

此外,我们还采取措施对资本进行积极管理与循环利用,以强化我们的资产负债表,同时提高我们在新项目投资中的竞争优势。2010年,我们将克拉码头出售给旗下参股公司嘉茂信托(CMT),同时还成功完成嘉德商用马来西亚信托(CMMT)在马来西亚证券交易所主板市场的上市,将其打造成为马来西亚最大的“纯”购物中心房地产投资信托公司(REIT)。

尽管今年的整体经济预期将低于去年,但亚洲仍将以8.4% (数据源于国际货币基金组织)的预计增幅走在世界的前列。这其中,新加坡的经济增长预计介于4.0%到6.0%之间,中国和印度两大经济体预计分别增长9.6%和8.4%,马来西亚则预计增长5.3%。对于这波经济增长大潮,我们已做好充分准备,完全可以驾驭自如。

截至2010年12月31日,我们在新加坡、中国、马来西亚、印度及日本五个国家的49个城市拥有91个购物中心。我们的资产组合的总值约为237亿新元,总建筑面积(GFA)约为7340万平方英尺。

感谢各位对我们第一个完整年度经营的鼎力支持。我们在此谨代表CMA董事会及管理层,向各位股东呈上2010年的业绩以及2011年的发展计划。

稳健的财务业绩2010年,CMA扣除少数股东权益的税后利润(PATMI)达到4.219亿新元,比2009年的3.881亿新元增长8.7%;息税前利润(EBIT)则达到4.724亿新元。管理收入为13.591亿新元,比2009年的12.87亿新元增长5.6%。截至2010年12月31日,我们管理的已运营的购物中心达65个,另有26个购物中心正在开发之中。

我们将继续致力于业务增长,因此将会对资本进行再投资。同时向各位股东返利,以回馈各位的大力支持。因此,董事会建议2010年派发每股2分股息,高于2009年的每股1分的股息。

积极的资本管理作为CMA资本管理战略的组成部分,我们积极循环利用资本进行再投资,并实现资金来源的多元化。我们所循环利用的资金共约5亿新元,其中包括向CMT出售克拉码头的2.68亿新元,以及从CMMT上市获得的2.28亿新元。

我们的全资子公司CapitaMalls Asia Treasury Limited (CMATL)在20亿新元的欧元中期票据(EMTN)计划中,发行了3.5亿新元的7年期企业债券,年息3.95%。在了解了散户投资者的需求之后,CMATL于2011年1月向新加坡公众推出第一期总值2亿新元的一年期和三年期的零售债券,年利率分别为1.00%和2.15%,以迎合散户投资者对希望获得相比于其他投资方式更有吸引力的固定收入的需求,我们资产组合中的购物中心可以提供可靠的收益。本次公开发行获得1.82倍左右的超额认购。这些债券于2011年1月24日开始在新交所进行交易。

从上述企业债券和零售债券募集的资金,都将用于本公司新项目的投资。由于两种债券均得到热烈响应,我们将考虑在2011年推出企业和零售债券的后续系列。

我们健康的资产负债表和健全的业务模式,继续赋予我们必要的财务灵活性,使我们能够抓住收购机会。

2010年回顾在新加坡,CMA和嘉德置地新加坡住宅房产开发公司(CapitaLand Residential Singapore)于2010年9月成功标得勿洛镇(Bedok)中心的一个地块。该地块恰好位于新加坡最大居住区的中心地带,辐射人口约30万。该地块将会被开发成多功能综合项目,将建一个2层的购物中心和一个10层的住宅楼。

2014年购物中心建成后,它将与设有巴士转换站和地铁的Bedok交通枢纽连接。本次竞标成功也加强了我们在新加坡零售地产市场的领导地位。

位于ION Orchard上方的高级豪华公寓卓锦豪庭于2010年 10月取得临时占用许可证(TOP)。同月,我们在卓锦豪庭的第55和56层推出ION Sky 360度观景平台。该观景平台 是乌节路的最高点,站在这里俯瞰四周,景色迷人、叹为观止。此外,我们还邀请澳大利亚的知名厨师Luke Mangan在ION Sky开设他在东南亚的第一家餐馆——Salt Grill & Bar。

纬壹科技城的市民、文化、零售、娱乐综合中心的施工进展顺利。该项目属本公司自有项目,地下一层到地上三层将会是购物中心,预计将于2012年底前建成并开业。届时该商场将成为新加坡第一家生活方式购物目的地,让人们在郁郁葱葱的绿植中,享受购物、餐饮及娱乐。近期宣布将迁址壹纬媒体城的新传媒,以及周边即将完工的私宅,都预示着市场对购物中心的强大需求。

2010年在中国,我们共有5个购物中心开业,分别是哈尔滨的嘉茂广场·埃德蒙顿、北京的嘉茂购物中心·翠微、河南安阳的嘉信茂广场·安阳、郑州的嘉茂购物中心·金水和新乡的嘉信茂广场·新乡,从而使我们拥有的已运营的购物中心总数达到38个。过去几年来,我们在中国的业务与实力逐渐壮大,并保持强劲增长势头。目前,我们在华员工人数超过2,200名,分为六大区域进行管理。购物中心业绩良好,符合我们的预期。

我们继续看好中国持续高涨的消费需求,2010年我们投资逾12亿新元收购在中国的四个新项目。在上海,我们收购了卢湾区一处核心地段的商场及写字楼开发项目66.00%的有效股权,以及上海第二座来福士城——长宁来福士城17.10%的股权。通过这些收购,我们在上海的资产组合拥有6个购物中心,增强了我们在这个全球增长速度最快的金融中心的地位。

在成都,我们收购了魅力城购物中心,以及天府综合开发项目,其中包括购物中心、住宅楼和写字楼。通过这些收购,我们在中国西部的资产组合扩大到11个购物中心,其中8个位于四川省,而8个中有5个集聚于成都市。

截至2010年12月31日,我们在中国34个城市共拥有53个购物中心,总建筑面积达4,860万平方英尺。

在马来西亚,我们于2010年7月完成CMMT在马来西亚证券交易所的挂牌上市。作为一家“纯”购物中心房地产投资信托公司,CMMT的市价总值和资产总值均位居马来西亚之首。这不仅意味着我们继续加强在马来西亚这一主要市场的业务,而且我们通过让CMMT直接接触国内和国际的投资者,强化了自身的财务灵活度,以更好地抓住收购机会。

CMMT将被指定成为持有CMA马来西亚稳定购物中心的平台。CMMT的初始资产组合颇具吸引力,包括3个已建成的购物中心,即槟城合您广场、吉隆坡金河广场零售 区(占其中约61.90%的股权)以及雪兰莪州绿野购 物中心。

我们会关注市场分散的马来西亚购物中心中出现的收购机会,还计划设立一个10亿零吉的马来西亚零售资产基金,以购物中心为重点进行零售资产的收购与(或)开发。

12月份,CMA收购了槟城最大的购物中心——皇后湾购物中心约90.70%的股权,并以此作为筹划中的零售资产基金的种子资产。皇后湾购物中心与合您广场是槟城最好的两个商场,我们已经通过CMMT将合您广场纳入囊中并予以管理。这次收购将显著强化本公司在马来西亚市场的领导地位。凭借自身的规模与专长,我们有信心通过调整租户组合和实施资产改良计划,实现皇后湾购物中心的升级,使其资产收益率超过目前的5.0%。

至于日本,我们已完成我们在东京最大的购物中心Vivit Square的资产改良工程。翻修后于2010年8月重新开业,除52家专卖店和一家超市外,还新进两家知名的主力租户,即Mr.Max折扣店和野岛(Nojima)家用电子商店。2010年,该购物中心客流量达480万人次,销售额76亿日元,同比增长分别达105.0%和118.0%。 在印度,2010年是我们在印度班加罗尔经营的Forum Value Mall购物中心的第一个完整营业年度,营业利润(NPI) 比2009年增长约300.0%。我们在印度的第二个购物中心是位于乌代布尔的Celebration Mall,其已经签约了所有主力租户,并将于2011年初开业。

嘉茂信托(CMT)截至2010年12月31日, CMA持有CMT 29.85%的有效股权。 2010年,新加坡经济状况获得改善,游客人数增加, 另外,由于失业率低于2.2%,消费支出旺盛。受惠于此,CMT的每单位发放金(DPU)高达9.24新分,比2009年的8.85新分高出4.6%。

JCube购物中心(原裕廊娱乐中心)的资产改良工程于2010年5月破土动工,并将于2012年初完工,届时净租赁面积(NLA)将超过20万平方英尺,并且拥有新加坡唯一的室内奥林匹克标准溜冰场。

The Atrium@Orchard的资产改良工程于2011年1月开工,并将于明年底完工。资产改良完成后将新增零售面积约127,000平方英尺,使净租赁面积提高六倍。该工程将The Atrium@Orchard与Plaza Singapura合为一体,创造出625,000平方英尺的净租赁面积,规模与ION Orchard不 相上下。

嘉茂中国信托(CRCT)截至2010年12月31日,CMA持有CRCT 27.35%的有效股权。2010年,中国经济增长10.3%,社会消费品零售总额增长18.4%,达到15.5万亿元人民币。受惠于此,CRCT业绩表现强劲,营业利润达到人民币3.823亿元,比2009年增长5.8%。

CRCT通过积极调整现有商场的租户组合,强化购物中心的零售服务,继续实现购物中心的有机增长。这些商场包括北京的嘉茂购物中心·西直门、上海的嘉茂购物广场·七宝以及安徽芜湖的嘉信茂广场·新芜。在内蒙古呼和浩特市,嘉茂购物中心·赛罕的资产改良工程已经完成,成功转型为当地的一站式居家购物、餐饮及娱乐目的地。

嘉茂马来西亚信托(CMMT)截至2010年12月31日,CMA持有CMMT 41.74%的有效股 权。由于马来西亚的经济增长率为7.2%,零售额预计增长8.3%,在从2010年7月14日到12月31日的财政期间,CMMT的年度每单位发放金为7.26分,超出上市招股书中预期的7.16分。

11月份,CMMT宣布其收购合您广场扩建部分的计划。该项收购能否成功,除须经单位持有人批准外,还取决于其他各种因素。合您广场扩建部分于2008年开业,是一座九层的零售延伸建筑,与合您广场连为一体,净租赁面积近14万平方英尺。其租户组合成为合您广场的有益补充,并将显著增强CMMT在槟城的商业地位。

开发人力资本,创造成功可能在CMA,我们充分认识到公司的最大资产是其员工,他们的热情、职业素养、聪明才智及奉献精神,是我们成功的支柱。截至2010年12月31日,我们在五个经营业务的国家共聘用员工3,000多人。 我们致力于成为学习型机构。为此,我们组织员工前往澳大利亚、香港、日本和英国参观学习,深入世界其他主要零售中心,亲自感受零售业的新趋势,亲身体验具有启发性或新颖的购物中心管理理念。 我们同样重视员工就公司的运作所提出的诚恳意见。员工的参与对CMA能否成为永远生机勃勃并且员工为之而自豪的公司具有关键意义。2010年10月,我们在全公司范围内进行了一项员工参与度调查,以了解公司的优点与不足,并听取员工就公司的进一步发展提出的其他建议。我们在与员工分享调查结果的同时,还尽量选出切实可行的建议,并承诺予以实施。

扩大企业公民的作用2010年,我们加强企业的社会责任(CSR)工作,更全身心地回馈社会。继2009年6月在新加坡成功举办“Back to School”(重返学校)活动后,我们从2010年起将该活动更名为“My Schoolbag”(我的书包)计划,重新加以推广,并扩大其受助面。2009年,我的书包为新加坡200名儿童提供捐助。去年新加坡和中国又有11,000多名贫困儿童从我的书包计划中受惠,CMA共为此捐出32万新元。这主要得益于嘉德置地的慈善分支——嘉德希望基金(CapitaLand Hope Foundation)出资30万新元赞助。

在新加坡,从我的书包计划中受益的贫困儿童达1,000人。2010年11月,我们组织小学生前往我们的四个购物中心选取学习和日常生活必需品。

在中国,我们于2010年9月新学年开始之际,及时为18个城市129所学校的一年级小学生送上新书包和文具,为万余名贫困儿童带来欢声笑语。这是公司首次将我的书包活动的受助面扩展到新加坡以外。未来,我们的目标是把我的书包活动扩大到我们在马来西亚、日本和印度的其他市场。

2010年3月27日,我们五个市场中的50多个购物中心连续第二年参加“地球一小时”活动。在庆祝嘉德置地10周年的同时,我们举办了“10小时熄灯仪式”,将外墙及“非必要”照明灯光熄灭达10小时。

在新加坡,来福士城获得了新加坡建设局颁发的绿色标记金奖。在ION Orchard和Clarke Quay,我们已经开始回收利用食品废物将其变成最终成品,比如肥料。我们计划将这一行动扩大到我们在新加坡资产组合中的其他购物中心。

我们在新加坡的购物中心还参加了“带动绿色,共筑希望”(Green for Hope)活动。该活动由嘉德置地发起,旨在鼓励租户、顾客、被服务的居民及其他公众成员参与回收活动,共建绿色环保。本次活动的收入将捐赠给新加坡各地的贫困儿童。

2010年,26个参加本次活动的购物中心共收集可回收废物888,555公斤,为10个儿童慈善机构募集资金42万新元。去年CMA共有9个购物中心入选表现最佳物业前十名,它们是:白沙浮广场、狮城大厦、第一乐广场购物中心、武吉班让购物中心、ION Orchard,IMM,第八站,福南科技与资讯广场和淡滨尼广场。

在中国的环保前线,我们力图通过回收艺术工作坊、绿色宣传、推广使用环保型购物袋等活动开展环保宣传。

向逾百个中国商场的目标进发我们的母公司嘉德置地自1994年开始在中国发展,利用这一优势,我们于2003年在中国开了第一家商场——上海来福士广场,成为行业的先行者。八年来,我们每年约20亿新元的新项目投资大部分在中国。我们已经建起当地的团队,并且合理布局管理结构加快执行速度。中国被分为六个区域进行管理,由一位中国CEO领导。

展望未来,我们将继续发展我们的主要市场,新加坡,中国和马来西亚。作为实现我们在三至五年内使资产组合翻番,在中国拥有超过100个商场的计划的一部分,我们计划今年再投资20亿新元收购新项目。

致谢本公司在上市后的第一个完整营业年度中,得到了全体股东、业务伙伴、参股公司和员工的大力支持,在此我们谨表示衷心感谢。在接下来的几年中,随着我们继续发展壮大和寻求新的商机,我们期待能继续得到各位的鼎立支持与合作。

The Board has regular discussions on the key activities and business strategies of the Group, during which the Board deliberates, among other things, the strategic policies of the Group, including significant acquisitions and monetisations, approving the annual budget, reviewing the performance of the Group’s businesses, and approving the release of the quarterly and full-year results after they are reviewed by the Audit Committee (whose composition and role are described below).

A total of five Board meetings were held in 2010. A Project Committee meeting attended by the Board was held in 2010 in relation to the listing of CapitaMalls Malaysia Trust. A table of the Board members’ participation in the various Board committees (as further described below) is set out on page 40 of this Report. This reflects each Board member’s additional responsibilities and special focus in the respective Board committees.

Page 39: CapitaMalls Asia Annual Report 2010

A table showing the attendance record of directors at Board meetings and Board committee meetings during the year of 2010 is also set out on page 40 of this Report. We believe in the important contributions of our directors beyond attendance at formal Board and Board committee meetings. To judge a director’s contribution based on his attendance at formal meetings alone would not do justice to his overall contribution, which includes being accessible to Management for guidance or exchange of views outside the formal environment of Board and Board committee meetings.

The Board has adopted a set of internal controls which establishes approval limits for capital expenditure, investments and monetisations, bank borrowings and minimum signature requirements for cheques at the Board level. Approval sub-limits are also provided at Management levels to facilitate operational efficiency.

Changes to regulations and accounting standards are monitored closely by Management. Our directors are briefed during Board meetings or at specially convened sessions conducted by professionals on regulatory changes, including any relevant revisions to accounting standards, that have any significant bearing on our Company’s or directors’ obligations.

Newly appointed directors are briefed by Management on the business activities and strategic directions of the Group. Each director is briefed and provided with a formal letter of appointment setting out his or her duties and obligations. Directors are also briefed and provided with relevant information on our Company’s policies and procedures relating to corporate conduct and governance including disclosure of interests in securities, restricted periods for dealings in our Company’s securities, restrictions on disclosure of confidential or price sensitive information and the disclosure of interests relating to certain property transactions.

Board Composition and GuidancePrinciple 2: There should be a strong and independent element on the Board, which is able to exercise objective judgement on corporate affairs independently, in particular, from Management. No individual or small group of individuals should be allowed to dominate the Board’s decision-making.

As at 31 December 2010, the Board comprised 10 directors. With the resignation of Dr Fu Yuning on 1 January 2011, the Board comprises nine directors, of whom five are non-executive directors who are independent of Management as well as our substantial shareholders. A director is considered independent if he has no relationship with our Company, our related companies or officers that could interfere, or be reasonably perceived to interfere, with the exercise of the director’s independent business judgment in the best interests of our Company. Mr Sunil Tissa Amarasuriya, Dr Loo Choon Yong, Mrs Arfat Pannir Selvam, Professor Tan Kong Yam and Mr Yap Chee Keong are considered to be independent directors.

Mr Sunil Tissa Amarasuriya has been an independent director of our Company since 30 October 2009. In FY 2010, a subsidiary of his associate, BP de Silva (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd, is a tenant in Gurney Plaza which is owned by a subsidiary of the Company. The aggregate amounts received in FY 2010 by the Company and its subsidiaries from BP de Silva (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd amounted to approximately S$91,000. Our Company nonetheless considers Mr Amarasuriya as an independent director as the tenancy with BP de Silva (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd was entered into prior to Mr Amarasuriya’s appointment as a director of our Company and was in the ordinary course of business and on market terms. Our Company is also of the view that Mr Amarasuriya is able to exercise strong independent business judgement with a view to the best interests of our Company.

CAPITAMALLS ASIA LIMITED REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS 2010 37

Page 40: CapitaMalls Asia Annual Report 2010

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Dr Loo Choon Yong has been an independent director of our Company since 30 October 2009. In FY 2010, the Group paid for healthcare insurance and various medical services from companies within the Raffles Medical Group Ltd (RMG) group of companies (RMG Group). RMG is an associate of Dr Loo. The aggregate amount paid by our Company to the RMG Group in respect of such services in FY 2010 amounted to approximately S$276,000. Our Company nonetheless considers Dr Loo as an independent director as such services were provided by the RMG Group in the ordinary course of business and the amounts paid to the RMG Group were on an arm’s length basis, based on normal commercial terms. Our Company is also of the view that Dr Loo is able to exercise strong independent business judgement with a view to the best interest of our Company.

The composition of the Board enables Management to benefit from their external, diverse and objective perspectives on issues brought before the Board. It also enables the Board to interact and work with Management through a robust exchange of ideas and views to help shape the strategic process. This, together with a clear separation of the roles of Chairman and CEO, provides a healthy professional relationship between the Board and Management with clarity of roles and facilitates robust deliberation on the business activities of the Group.

The Board is supported by Board committees to provide independent supervision of Management. A Nominating Committee (NC) has been established to make recommendations to the Board on all Board appointments and determine a director’s independence. Besides the NC, the other Board committees are the Audit Committee (AC), Executive Resource and Compensation Committee (ERCC), Finance and Budget Committee (FBC), Investment Committee (IC) and the Corporate Disclosure Committee (CDC). Each of these Board committees operate under delegated authority from the Board. The AC and ERCC are made up of independent or non-executive directors.

The Board may form other Board committees as dictated by business imperatives.

Membership of the various Board committees is carefully managed to ensure an equitable distribution of responsibilities among Board members, to maximise the effectiveness of the Board and foster active participation and contribution from Board members. Diversity of experience and appropriate skills are considered. Our Company has also taken steps to ensure that there are appropriate checks and balances between the different Board committees.

Chairman and Chief Executive OfficerPrinciple 3: There should be clear division of responsibilities at the top of the company – the working of the Board and the executive responsibility of the company’s business – which will ensure a balance of power and authority, such that no one individual represents a considerable concentration of power.

To ensure an appropriate balance of power, increased accountability and greater capacity of the Board for independent decision making, the roles and responsibilities between the Chairman and CEO are held by separate individuals. The non-executive Chairman, Mr Liew Mun Leong, is responsible for the Board and acts independently in the best interests of our Company and shareholders, while the CEO, Mr Lim Beng Chee, is responsible for the overall operation of the Group’s businesses. The Chairman and CEO are not related to each other.

The Chairman ensures that the members of the Board and Management work together with integrity, competency and moral authority, and that the Board constructively engages Management on strategy, business operations, enterprise risk and other plans.

38 CAPITAMALLS ASIA LIMITED REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS 2010

Page 41: CapitaMalls Asia Annual Report 2010

The CEO is a Board member and has full executive responsibilities over the business directions and operational decisions of the Group. The CEO, in consultation with the Chairman, schedules Board meetings and finalises the preparation of the Board meeting agenda. He ensures the quality and timeliness of the flow of information between Management and the Board. He is also responsible for ensuring that the principles and guidelines of the Code are complied with.

Board MembershipPrinciple 4: There should be a formal and transparent process for the appointment of new directors to the Board.

The NC ensures that the Board and Board committees in the Group comprise individuals who are best able to discharge their responsibilities as directors or, as the case may be, Board committee members, having regard to applicable laws and regulations as well as the highest standards of corporate governance. In performing its role, the NC is guided by its Terms of Reference which sets out its responsibilities.

In particular, the NC reviews and recommends:

• Candidates for appointments on our Company’s Board and Board committees;

• Nomination for re-appointment or re-election or renewal of appointment of Directors; and

• Candidates to be our nominees on the boards and board committees of listed companies and entities within the Group.

The NC sources for candidates who would be able to effectively value add to Management through their contributions in the relevant strategic business are as of the Group and in the constitution of strong and diverse boards. The composition of the Board, including the selection of candidates for new appointments to the Board as part of the Board’s renewal process, is determined using the following principles:

• The Board should comprise directors with a broad range of commercial experience.

• At least one-third of the Board should comprise independent directors.

The selection of candidates is evaluated taking into account various factors including the current and mid-term needs and goals of our Company as well as the relevant expertise of the candidates and their potential contributions.

The NC comprises Dr Loo Choon Yong as the Chairman, Mr Liew Mun Leong and Mrs Arfat Pannir Selvam. The majority of the NC members, including the Chairman, are independent non-executive directors.

We believe that Board renewal is a necessary and continual process for good governance and maintaining relevance to the changing needs of the Group’s businesses. The CEO, as a Board member, is also subject to retirement and re-election by shareholders as part of Board renewal.

40 CAPITAMALLS ASIA LIMITED REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS 2010

Page 43: CapitaMalls Asia Annual Report 2010

Election and re-election of Board members is the prerogative and right of shareholders.

Our Company’s Articles of Association require every director to retire once every three years and for this purpose, one-third of its directors (prioritised by length of service since previous re-election or appointment) to retire and subject themselves to re-election (one-third rotation rule) by shareholders at every Annual General Meeting (AGM). This effectively means that no Director will remain in office for more than three years without being re-elected by shareholders. In addition, a newly-appointed director will submit himself for retirement and re-election at the AGM immediately following his appointment. Thereafter, he is subject to the one-third rotation rule.

The CEO, as a Board member, is also subject to the one-third rotation rule. His role as CEO is separate from his position as a Board member, and does not affect the ability of shareholders to exercise their right to select all Board members.

Directors who are above the age of 70 are also statutorily required to seek re-appointment at each AGM.

Board PerformancePrinciple 5: There should be a formal assessment of the effectiveness of the Board as a whole and the contribution by each director to the effectiveness of the Board.

We believe that Board performance is ultimately reflected in the long term performance of the Group.

The financial indicators, set out in the Code as guides for the evaluation of the Board and its directors, are in our opinion more of a measurement of Management’s performance and therefore less applicable to directors. In any case, such financial indicators provide a snapshot of a company’s performance, and do not fully measure the sustainable long term wealth and value creation of our Company.

A more important consideration is that the Board, through the NC, has ensured from the outset the requisite blend of background, experience and knowledge in technology, business, finance and management skills critical to the Group’s businesses. It has from the outset ensured that each director with his special contribution brings to the Board an independent and objective perspective to enable balanced and well-considered decisions to be made in the interests of the Group. Contributions by an individual Board member can also take other forms, including providing objective perspectives of issues, facilitating business opportunities and strategic relationships, and accessibility to management outside of a formal environment of Board and/or Board committee meetings.

Reviews of Board performance as appropriate are informal. Renewal or replacement of Board members do not necessarily reflect their contributions to date, but may be driven by the need to position and shape the Board in line with the medium term needs of our Company and its business.

Access to InformationPrinciple 6: In order to fulfil their responsibilities, Board members should be provided with complete, adequate and timely information prior to Board meetings and on an on-going basis.

The Board is provided with timely and complete information prior to Board meetings and as and when the need arises. New Board members are fully briefed on the businesses of the Group.

Management provides adequate and timely information to the Board on Board affairs and issues requiring the Board’s decision. It also provides ongoing reports relating to operational and financial performance of our Company, such as quarterly management financial reports. Where a physical Board meeting is not possible, the Articles of Association of our Company allow directors to convene meetings by teleconferencing or videoconferencing. Timely communication with members of the Board is effected through electronic means which include electronic mail, teleconferencing and videoconferencing. Alternatively, Management will brief directors in advance before seeking the Board’s approval.

CAPITAMALLS ASIA LIMITED REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS 2010 41

Page 44: CapitaMalls Asia Annual Report 2010

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

The Board is entitled to have access to Senior Management and the Company Secretary at all times. The Company Secretary attends to corporate secretarial administration matters and is the corporate governance advisor on corporate matters to the board directors and Senior Management. The Company Secretary attends Board meetings. The Board is also entitled to have access to independent professional advice where appropriate.

Board meetings for each year are scheduled in advance in the preceding year to facilitate directors’ individual administrative arrangements in respect of competing commitments.

The AC must also meet the external and internal auditors separately at least once a year, without the presence of the CEO and the Senior Management, in order to have unfettered access to any information that it may require.

(B) REMUNERATION MATTERSProcedures for Developing Remuneration PoliciesPrinciple 7: There should be a formal and transparent procedure for developing policy on executive remuneration and for fixing the remuneration packages of individual directors. No director should be involved in deciding his own remuneration.

Level and Mix of RemunerationPrinciple 8: The level of remuneration should be appropriate to attract, retain and motivate the directors needed to run the company successfully but companies should avoid paying more than is necessary for this purpose. A significant proportion of executive directors’ remuneration should be structured so as to link rewards to corporate and individual performance.

Disclosure on RemunerationPrinciple 9: Each company should provide clear disclosure of its remuneration policy, level and mix of remuneration, and the procedure for setting remuneration in the company’s annual report. It should provide disclosure in relation to its remunerative policies to enable investors to understand the link between remuneration paid to directors and key executives, and performance.

We believe that a framework of remuneration for the Board and key executives should not be taken in isolation. It should be linked to the development of management bench strength and key executives to ensure continual development of talent and renewal of strong and sound leadership for the continued success of the business and our Company.

Our Company’s ERCC plays a crucial role in helping to ensure that we are able to recruit and retain the best talents to drive the Group’s businesses forward. It oversees executive compensation and development in our Company.

The ERCC members comprise Dr Loo Choon Yong as the Chairman, Mr Liew Mun Leong and Mr Sunil Tissa Amarasuriya. All the members of the ERCC are non-executive directors, the majority of whom, including the Chairman, are independent. Outside members may be co-opted into the ERCC to provide a global perspective of talent management and remuneration practices.

The ERCC is guided by its Terms of Reference. Specifically, the ERCC will:

• Approve the remuneration framework for non-executive directors;

• Establish compensation policies for key executives;• Approve salary reviews, bonus and incentives for key

executives;• Approve share incentives and share ownership for

executives;• Approve key appointments and review succession

plans for key positions; and• Oversee the development of key executives and younger

talented executives.

The ERCC aims to build capable and committed management teams through competitive compensation, focused management and progressive policies which can attract, motivate and retain a pool of talented executives to meet the current and future growth of our Company.

42 CAPITAMALLS ASIA LIMITED REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS 2010

Page 45: CapitaMalls Asia Annual Report 2010

The ERCC conducts, on an annual basis, a succession planning review of the CEO and selected key positions in our Company. Potential internal and external candidates for succession are reviewed in the light of immediate, medium term and longer term needs.

The ERCC is entitled to seek access to expert professional advice on human resource matters whenever there is a need to consult externally. In its deliberations, the ERCC takes into consideration industry practices and norms in compensation. The CEO is not present during the discussions relating to his own compensation and terms and conditions of service, and the review of his performance. The CEO will be in attendance when the ERCC discusses policies and compensation of his senior team and key staff, as well as major compensation and incentive policies such as the performance share plan and restricted stock plan framework for bonus, staff salary and other incentive schemes. One ERCC meeting was held in 2010.

The CEO as an executive director does not receive director’s fees. He is the lead member of Management. His compensation consists of his salary, allowances, bonuses and share awards pursuant to our Company’s Performance Share Plan and Restricted Stock Plan. The latter is conditional upon him meeting certain performance targets. The details of his compensation package are found in the Other Information section of this Report (Other Information).

Non-executive directors have remuneration packages consisting of directors’ fees, attendance fees and share awards pursuant to our Company’s Performance Share Plan and Restricted Stock Plan. The directors’ fee policy is based on a scale of fees divided into basic retainer fees as director and additional fees for attendance and serving on Board committees. Details of the breakdown are found in the Other Information. Directors’ fees for non-executive directors are subject to the approval of shareholders at each annual general meeting of our Company.

Our key executives have remuneration packages consisting of salaries, allowances, bonuses and share awards pursuant to our Company’s Performance Share Plan and Restricted Stock Plan.

The basis of allocation of the number of share awards takes into account a director’s additional responsibilities at Board committees.

We have disclosed the names and remuneration of our directors and at least the top five executives (who are also not directors) at page 177 and page 178. There were no employees who were immediate family members of a director or the CEO, and whose remuneration exceeded S$150,000, during 2010.

A separate Remuneration Report is not prepared as most of the information is found in the Other Information. Details of the employee share schemes are given in the Directors’ Report on page 88.

(C) ACCOUNTABILITY AND AUDITAccountabilityPrinciple 10: The Board should present a balanced and understandable assessment of the company’s performance, position and prospects.

Our Company believes in conducting itself in ways that deliver maximum sustainable value to our shareholders. Best practices are promoted as a means to build an excellent business for our shareholders and our Company is accountable to shareholders for its performance.

Our Company also believes that the separation of the roles of the Chairman and the CEO, and the holding of such appointments by separate individuals, ensures effective supervision of Management and maintenance of accountability of the Board to the shareholders, and of Management to the Board.

Prompt fulfilment of statutory reporting requirements is but one way to maintain shareholders’ confidence and trust in the capability and integrity of our Company.

CAPITAMALLS ASIA LIMITED REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS 2010 43

Page 46: CapitaMalls Asia Annual Report 2010

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Audit CommitteePrinciple 11: The Board should establish an Audit Committee with written terms of reference which clearly set out its authority and duties.

Our Company’s internal policy requires the AC to have at least three members, all of whom must be non-executive and the majority must be independent.

The AC consists of three directors. Mr Yap Chee Keong, Chairman of the AC, and the other two members, Mr Sunil Tissa Amarasuriya and Professor Tan Kong Yam, are all independent non-executive directors. The members bring with them invaluable managerial and professional expertise in the financial and corporate finance domains.

The AC is guided by its Terms of Reference which defines its scope of authority. Under these Terms of Reference, the responsibilities of the AC include the review of the annual audit plan, adequacy of the internal audit process, results of audit findings and Management’s response, adequacy and effectiveness of internal controls, as well as interested person transactions.

The AC will also review the Group’s quarterly and full-year results and the appointment and re-appointment of auditors before recommending them to the Board for approval. The AC will also approve the compensation of the external auditors, as well as consider the nature and extent of non-audit services and their potential impact on the independence and objectivity of the external auditors.

The AC also reviews internal arrangements designed to enable employees of our Company to raise concerns, in confidence, on possible improprieties in matters of financial reporting or other matters. Pursuant to this, the Board has introduced a Whistle Blowing Policy where staff may raise improprieties to the AC Chairman in good faith, with the confidence that employees making such reports will be treated fairly and be protected from reprisal.

The AC meets with the external and internal auditors, without the presence of Management, at least once a year to discuss the reasonableness of the financial reporting

process, the system of internal control, and the significant comments and recommendations by the auditors. The non-audit fee paid and payable to the external auditors for FY 2010 amount to S$31,000.

A total of six AC meetings were held in 2010.

Internal ControlsPrinciple 12: The Board should ensure that Management maintains a sound system of internal controls to safeguard the shareholders’ investments and the company’s assets.

Internal AuditPrinciple 13: The company should establish an internal audit function that is independent of the activities it audits.

Our Company believes that it has in place a system of internal controls to safeguard shareholders’ interests and the Group’s assets, and also to manage risks. Apart from the AC, other Board committees may be set up from time to time to address specific issues or risks.

The AC’s responsibilities in the Group’s internal controls are complemented by the work of the FBC, which inter alia reviews the Group Finance Manual and the Group’s annual budget. Based on the review of these Board committees, the Board, through the AC, is satisfied that there are adequate internal controls in place within the Group.

With effect from 1 December 2010, the Group’s Internal Audit Department (CMA IA) was formed. Functionally, CMA IA reports directly to the AC and administratively to the CEO. The CMA IA plans its internal audit schedules in consultation with, but independently of, the Management and its plan is submitted to the AC for approval at the beginning of each year. The AC also meets with the CMA IA at least once a year without the presence of the Management.

44 CAPITAMALLS ASIA LIMITED REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS 2010

Page 47: CapitaMalls Asia Annual Report 2010

(D) COMMUNICATION WITH SHAREHOLDERSCommunication with ShareholdersPrinciple 14: Companies should engage in regular, effective and fair communication with shareholders.

Greater Shareholder ParticipationPrinciple 15: Companies should encourage greater shareholder participation at AGMs, and allow shareholders the opportunity to communicate their view on various matters affecting the company.

Our Investor Relations and Corporate Communications Departments facilitate regular, effective and unbiased communications with our Company’s shareholders, analysts, fund managers and the media.

Our Company’s results for the full year for financial year 2010 was released on a timely basis, within 55 days of the end of the financial year.

Our Company supports the Code’s principle of encouraging shareholder participation. Apart from receiving the annual report in a CD format and notice of the AGM, shareholders are also notified of these announcements as advertised in the press and issued via SGXNET. At the AGM and reception thereafter, shareholders are encouraged to communicate their views and discuss with the Board and Management matters affecting our Company. The respective Chairpersons of the AC, NC and ERCC, and the external auditors, would usually be present at the AGM. Voting in absentia and by email may only be approved by the Board subject to careful study to ensure that the integrity of the information and authentication of the identity of shareholders through the web are not compromised and legislative changes are effected to recognise electronic voting.

The Company continues to reinforce communication with stakeholders and analysts to keep them updated on our financial results as well as our local and overseas corporate activities on a timely and consistent basis. In line with the disclosure requirements mandated under the Listing Manual of the SGX-ST, the Company’s policy is to communicate relevant information soonest possible where immediate disclosure is not practicable. Regular mall visits, briefings and meetings for analysts and the media are held throughout the year. For our half-year and full-year financial results briefings, Senior Management reviews the Group’s most recent performance and discusses our Company’s outlook. In view of transparency and broad dissemination, these briefings are webcast live and accessible to the public on the Group’s website at www.capitamallsasia.com. Materials used in the briefings are published via SGXNET and recordings of the briefings are also archived on the CMA Investor Relations website.

In 2010, we held our inaugural Investor Open Day jointly with CapitaMall Trust Management Limited and CapitaRetail China Trust Management Limited and attracted a total of 450 investors. This event is targeted at promoting open communication with the investors, allowing investors the opportunity to interact directly with Senior Management and to gain more understanding of our business strategy. In addition, Senior Management met with close to 600 institutional investors and analysts through group presentations, one-on-one meetings and conference calls.

Shareholders and potential investors have 24-hour access to CMA’s website, including a dedicated Investor Relations link providing the latest announcements and company’s stock details. In that link, the public is able to post questions via an ‘Ask Us’ email address. In addition, CMA pursues opportunities to keep its retail shareholders informed through the business media, website postings and other publicity channels.

Page 48: CapitaMalls Asia Annual Report 2010

BOARD COMMITTEESIn addition to the NC, ERCC and AC described under Principles 4, 7 and 11, the Board of CMA has set up three other Board committees as follows:

Investment CommitteeThe IC is chaired by Mr Liew Mun Leong and comprises Mr Lim Tse Ghow Olivier, Dr Loo Choon Yong, Professor Tan Kong Yam and Mr Lim Beng Chee, CEO. The IC approves the Group’s investments and monetisations, participation in tenders and bids and acceptance of credit facilities from financial institutions and banks.

Since 2005, the Board had approved the delegation of some of its authority to the various management committees within strict limits.

Finance and Budget CommitteeThe FBC is chaired by Mr Lim Tse Ghow Olivier and comprises Mr Yap Chee Keong and Mr Lim Beng Chee, CEO. The FBC reviews the annual budget and financial policies of the Group.

The FBC was formed in February 2010 and is responsible to review the financial forecasts and the annual financial plan of the Group. In addition, the FBC reviews and approves updates to the CapitaMalls Asia Group Finance Manual.

Corporate Disclosure CommitteeThe CDC is chaired by Mr Liew Mun Leong and comprises Mr Lim Tse Ghow Olivier, Mrs Arfat Pannir Selvam and Mr Lim Beng Chee, CEO.

The CDC was formed in February 2010 and reviews the promptness and comprehensiveness of corporate disclosure issues and key announcements made to the SGX-ST. It ensures the adoption of good corporate governance and best practices in terms of transparency to shareholders and the stakeholders.

DEALINGS IN SECURITIES In line with the best practices outlined under the Listing Manual of the SGX-ST, our Company has issued guidelines to directors and employees in the Group, which sets out prohibitions against dealings in our Company’s securities while in possession of material unpublished price-sensitive information, as well as during two weeks before the release of our Company’s results for the first three quarters and one month before the release of our Company’s full year results.

Directors and employees are also prohibited from dealing in securities of other listed companies in the Group while in possession of unpublished price-sensitive information by virtue of their status as directors and/or employees. They are also made aware of the applicability of the insider trading laws at all times.

RISK ASSESSMENT & MANAGEMENT

Risk assessment and management is an integral part of the strategic and operational decision-making process of CMA.

CMA maintains a prudent risk profile through a risk analysis framework that identifies, measures and mitigates relevant risks and exposures where possible. Potential risks include:

CREDIT RISKJoint venture partners or fund investors may not be able to fulfil their contractual obligations or may not be able to make unexpected capital calls, resulting in financial loss to CMA.

Processes are established to mitigate such risk, through credit evaluation and monitoring of risk associated with the counterparty and quantifying any potential contingent obligations.

DEVELOPMENT AND CONSTRUCTION RISKThe construction and developments of new projects usually take a few years to complete, depending on project size and complexity. There is potential risk that such development and construction projects may not be completed within the anticipated time frame and budget. CMA contains such risk through regular monitoring of the progress of these projects and quantifying the associated risk using the Value-at-Risk model.

FOREIGN EXCHANGE RISK CMA operates internationally and is exposed to various currencies. It maintains a natural hedge, whenever possible, by borrowing in the currency of the country in which the property or investment is located or by borrowing in currencies that match the future revenue stream to be generated from its investments. This enables CMA to limit translation exposure to its balance sheet arising from consolidation of its overseas net assets.

INTEREST RATE RISKCMA’s interest rate risk exposure relates mainly to its financial liabilities. This is managed through a prudent and balanced mix of fixed and floating rate borrowings. CMA actively reviews its debt portfolio, taking into account the investment holding period and nature of the assets. This strategy allows CMA to capitalise on less expensive funding in a low interest rate environment and achieve a certain level of protection against rate increases as well as tap on diversified sources of funding. Where appropriate, CMA hedges its interest rate exposure using interest rate swaps for specific underlying debt obligations.

LIQUIDITY AND REFINANCING RISKTo meet capital, refinancing and operating needs, CMA manages its liquidity and refinancing risks by actively managing its operating cash flows, setting up sufficient credit facilities and ensuring its debt maturity profile is well spread out.

PROPERTY RISKReal estate markets are cyclical and significantly affected by global and local conditions, such as government regulations, competition, consumer confidence and demand and supply. Existing and new exposures are evaluated with the Value-at-Risk model adopted from the banking industry and tailored for real estate-specific risks. Stress testing and scenario analyses are performed, and all financial assumptions of project cash flows are benchmarked to ensure forecasts are objective.

Moving forward, CMA will continue to review and adjust its risk management systems and methodologies so as to manage risks proactively, preserve capital and enhance shareholders’ value. CMA’s key risk management principle remains its endeavour to minimise risk.

For 2010, CapitaMalls Asia used a rigorous investor relations plan to attract and engage investors. We participated in major conferences, roadshows, one-on-one meetings and met with close to 600 institutional investors. With our properties spanning across 5 countries and 49 cities, we conducted regular mall visits in Singapore, China, Malaysia, Japan and India for analysts and investors. During these mall visits, our local team will explain the macro environment which we operate in and our mall management skill set. Besides engaging the institutional equity investors, we began fostering a relationship with bond investors, keeping them updated on our financial results and any other announcements.

In CMA, we value our retail shareholders, who currently make up approximately 8.7% of our shareholding structure. To reinforce communication with these investors, we held our inaugural Investor Open Day jointly with CapitaMall Trust Management Limited and CapitaRetail China Trust Management Limited, attracting a total of 450 investors. Investors were given an opportunity to interact with our Senior Management and hear them present on the business strategy.

In addition to a dedicated investor relations website and a host of investor relations tools used, investors are able to post any query they have through an “Ask Us” email. Through our website, the investment community is able to keep themselves updated on our latest announcements, press releases as well as our business progress.

Towards the end of the year, we conducted a perception study to gather feedback on our business model, quality of management and investor relations efforts from selected investors and analysts whom we met throughout the year. In addition, CMA is pleased to be awarded ‘Most Transparent Company’ under New Issues Category by Securities Investors Association (Singapore) and a certificate of excellence at the IR Magazine Awards 2010.

In 2010, we reinforced our commitment to contribute back to society by expanding our corporate social responsibility (CSR) efforts.

CARING FOR THE COMMUNITYFollowing the success of our “Back to School” event in Singapore in June 2009, we rebranded the programme as “My Schoolbag” from 2010 and widened its reach significantly. From 200 children in Singapore in 2009, we expanded My Schoolbag to benefit more than 11,000 underprivileged children in both Singapore and China in 2010, with a total donation of S$320,000 from CMA. This was made possible with funding of S$300,000 from CapitaLand Hope Foundation, the philanthropic arm of CapitaLand.

We extended My Schoolbag to China for the first time in 2010. From 1 to 13 September, we gave out new schoolbags and stationery to more than 10,000 underprivileged children from 129 schools in 18 cities. This came as a timely gift for the first-year primary school pupils at the start of their school year. We partnered the China Children and Teenagers’ Fund for the event.

In Singapore, we held a four-day event from 22 to 25 November at four of our malls, namely Junction 8, Lot One Shoppers’ Mall, Plaza Singapura and Tampines Mall. The event benefitted some 1,000 underprivileged children aged 7 to 12 years old from three self-help groups,

Chinese Development Assistance Counci (CDAC), MENDAKI and Singapore Indian Development Association (SINDA).

Together with staff volunteers, the children picked out new school shoes, stationery and daily necessities with their $110 worth of CapitaVouchers each. To promote the value of recycling, the children received eco-friendly bags for their items. The half-day shopping treat ended with games, a magic show and lunch.

CARING FOR THE ENVIRONMENTWe are also committed to protecting the environment. At our malls, we have pledged to reduce energy and water usage, and waste generation. Our efforts for our buildings to go green were recognised in Singapore with Raffles City picking up the Building and Construction Authority’s Green Mark Gold award. Over at ION Orchard and Clarke Quay, we have started recycling food waste into end-products such as compost, which can be used as fertiliser. We plan to extend this to other malls in our Singapore portfolio.

Over 50 malls across our five markets of Singapore, China, Malaysia, Japan and India took part in Earth Hour 2010. To promote energy conservation and environmental awareness, we turned off façade and non-essential lights for 10 hours from 8.30 pm on 27 March, in conjunction with CapitaLand’s 10th anniversary.

CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

50 CAPITAMALLS ASIA LIMITED REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS 2010

Page 53: CapitaMalls Asia Annual Report 2010

In CMA, we recognise that people are our greatest asset and it is their passion, professionalism, talent and commitment that form the backbone of our success. We adopt an integrated human capital strategy to recruit, develop and motivate employees.

TALENT MANAGEMENTIn line with our rapid growth in Singapore and overseas, we actively seek talents internally and externally to strengthen our bench strength and fuel future expansion. Talents are recruited at different transition points in their career path, from fresh graduates to young, mid-career professionals and industry veterans.

Our robust succession planning and talent management strategies support talent cross-fertilisation where employees are given the opportunity to rotate to different malls, functions, cities or countries as part of their career development.

Committed to being a learning organisation, we offer comprehensive training and development programmes for staff to acquire the relevant knowledge and skills to achieve business excellence. These include study visits to Australia, Japan, The United Kingdom and Hong Kong for staff to gain exposure on exciting/new retail trends and mall management concepts in different parts of the world.

Our core in-house training initiative – CMA Immersion Programme (commonly referred to as “Boot Camp” in China) remains key to our talent development strategy. It is a 5 to 10-day immersion programme aimed at integrating new hires quickly and effectively into our culture and systems. Regular study visits to Singapore are also organised for new hires from China and other overseas offices to familiarise themselves with CapitaLand Group’s businesses and operations.

For members of the Senior Management team with proven track record and leadership potential, we partner with CapitaLand Institute of Management and Business (CLIMB) to provide leadership and management programmes to sharpen their management, leadership and business skills.

COMPETITIVE COMPENSATION AND BENEFITSWe provide a comprehensive and competitive remuneration package which includes short-term cash bonuses and long-term equity-based reward plans such as restricted shares for key managers. Regular benchmarking against different markets and innovation in compensation strategies ensure we remain competitive and continue to attract and retain talent.

ENGAGING OUR PEOPLEIn line with our growth strategy, we believe it is important to integrate and engage staff in all countries through regular communication. Staff communication sessions by senior management are conducted regularly to keep staff abreast of our financial results and strategic business thrusts. Department teambuilding and retreats are also organised to foster greater team spirit in a fun and informal way.

CARING FOR OUR PEOPLE Key to our human resource management philosophy is total wellness for our employees. Workplace total wellness initiatives in 2010 included regular talks and outdoor recreational activities to promote healthy lifestyle and work-life harmony. In October 2010, CMA conducted an Employee Engagement Survey across our five countries with the aim of providing a better work environment for all our employees.

In CMA, we believe our success is shaped by our people and we will continue to manage and develop our human capital.

In Singapore, we have 15 completed shopping malls and three shopping malls under development, with a total GFA of 11.8 million sq ft and 5.5 million sq ft of NLA as at 31 December 2010.

Riding out of the economic downturn in 2009, CMA continued to achieve high occupancy rates of 99.0% and had more than 2,700 leases with international and domestic retailers as at 31 December 2010.

In 2010, CMA sold Clarke Quay, an integrated food and beverage, entertainment and lifestyle riverfront development, to CMT. Clarke Quay is located along the Singapore River, near Singapore’s Central Business District and Marina Bay Sands integrated resort. The asset enhancement works for Raffles City Singapore, which includes the reconfiguration of Basement One and the construction of a new underground link Basement Two, connecting City Hall Mass Rapid Transit MRT station to Esplanade MRT station, were completed in 2010. The enhancement works for JCube (formerly known as Jurong Entertainment

Centre) is on track and Singaporeans can look forward to the first Olympic-size ice rink when the mall opens in the first quarter of 2012. In September 2010, we acquired a prime site next to Bedok Town Centre and the Bedok MRT station. The site is earmarked for a mixed development comprising approximately 500 residential apartments and a retail mall.

CMA is optimistic about the growth prospects for retail in Singapore in 2011. The Ministry of Trade expects Singapore’s economic growth in 2011 to be between 4.0% and 6.0% and tourism is expected to continue its strong growth momentum. On the asset enhancement front, CMT has commenced work on The Atrium@Orchard in January 2011 and this will link The Atrium@Orchard to Plaza Singapura. When completed in 2012, the works will link the lower levels of The Atrium@Orchard to Plaza Singapura, creating an integrated retail mall with estimated NLA of 625,000 sq ft.

“We plan to double our presence to 100 malls within the next three to five years and further strengthen our position in China as one of its leading shopping mall developers, owners and managers.”

Cuiwei Mall, Beijing

CHINA

Page 59: CapitaMalls Asia Annual Report 2010

China is a key market for CMA. Our investment in China is held through CRCT, four private real estate funds and joint ventures with these funds.

In 2010, we opened five malls in Anyang, Beijing, Harbin, Xinxiang and Zhengzhou. We extended our presence in West and East China through our acquisitions of Meili Mall and Tianfu Mall in Chengdu, as well as the Luwan site and Raffles City Changning in Shanghai.

Out of CMA's 53 malls in China, 38 malls are operational and the remaining 15 malls are under various stages of development. As at 31 December 2010, the total property value of CMA’s China portfolio was S$9.7 billion.

CMA remains optimistic about the growth prospects in China. Strong retail sales growth of 18.4% was registered in 2010 (National Bureau of Statistics of China), a reflection of China’s robust domestic demand that will drive its economic growth. With increasing income levels, continuing urbanisation and high consumer confidence, consumer spending is expected to remain strong.

China’s GDP is projected to grow 9.6% in 2011 (International Monetary Fund). China’s strong domestic demand and economic growth momentum, especially when contrasted with the lackluster growth prospects in the developed markets, will continue to entice retailers to further expand into China. The rapid rise of China’s middle class consumers, estimated to increase from 150 million to more than 400 million over the next decade, offers tremendous growth opportunities for China’s retail market (The Boston Consulting Group).

CMA targets to open five malls in 2011. We plan to double our presence to 100 malls within the next three to five years and further strengthen our position in China as one of its leading shopping mall developers, owners and managers.

In 2010 we injected our Malaysian retail assets, namely Gurney Plaza in Penang, an interest in Sungei Wang Plaza in Kuala Lumpur and The Mines in Selangor, into CapitaMalls Malaysia Trust (CMMT).

CMMT, Malaysia’s largest “pure-play” shopping mall REIT, was listed on the Main Market of Bursa Securities on 16 July 2010. We have an effective 41.74% interest in CMMT and a 70.00% shareholding in CMMT’s manager, CapitaMalls Malaysia REIT Management Sdn. Bhd. The listing of CMMT has also provided direct access to both domestic and international investors, which has enhanced CMMT’s financial capacity to seize acquisition opportunities in the fragmented shopping mall sector in Malaysia.

With a committed occupancy rate of 98.3% as at 31 December 2010 and a year-on-year increase in footfall of 18.5%, our Malaysian shopping malls performed well in 2010.

On 12 November 2010, CMMT, through its trustee, exercised the right of first refusal granted by CMA in relation to the extension block to Gurney Plaza (Gurney Plaza Extension) and entered into a sale and purchase agreement to acquire this property for a purchase consideration of RM215.0 million. The said acquisition is subject to, among other things, CMMT’s unitholders’ approval and the completion of a placement of new units in CMMT.

On 22 December 2010, we entered into an agreement to acquire approximately 90.7% of the retail strata area (approximately 916,181 sq ft) and all car park spaces within Penang’s Queensbay Mall for a purchase consideration of approximately RM651.8 million, subject to all relevant regulatory approvals having been obtained. The acquisition substantially strengthens CMA’s market leadership in the state of Penang. Queensbay Mall will be the seed asset for CapitaMalls Asia’s planned RM1.0 billion Malaysian retail property development fund, which is expected to be launched in 2011.

CMA’s investment in Japan is via the ¥44.1 billion CapitaRetail Japan Fund Private Limited, in which we have a 26.29% stake.

In 2010, we successfully completed a major asset enhancement initiative (AEI) for Vivit Square (Chiba), our largest asset in Japan. With the AEI, we brought in Mr Max and Nojima Electronics as anchor tenants, and also reopened the food court. Post-AEI, we saw an increase of 13.4% in shopper traffic and 37.3% in tenant sales compared to the same period in the previous year. Occupancy also increased to about 90.0%.

As at 31 December 2010, the occupancy and NPI yield on the Japanese portfolio stands at 95.1% and 3.3% respectively.

The 2011 outlook for our business in Japan is expected to improve with the gradual recovery of the Japanese economy, although uncertainties and challenges remain. Our focus will be on improving our overall performance. We will also explore opportunities to make new acquisitions to expand our portfolio in Japan. In addition, we will continue to tap on our strong relationships with Japanese retailers to bring them to the other countries that CMA operates in.

Page 65: CapitaMalls Asia Annual Report 2010

CMA’s investment in India is via the S$880.0 million CapitaRetail India Development Fund (CRIDF), in which we have a 45.45% stake.

In the south of India, CRIDF had executed separate joint venture agreements (JVA) with Prestige Group to acquire stakes in six retail projects comprising two in Bangalore, and one each in Hyderabad, Mangalore, Mysore and Cochin. Out of the six projects, Forum Value Mall in Bangalore was completed and opened on 18 June 2009. Planning and construction are underway for the remaining five projects.

In the north of India, CRIDF had executed separate JVAs with Advance India Projects Limited to acquire stakes in three retail projects in Udaipur, Jalandhar and Nagpur. The Celebration Mall, Udaipur is expected to open in early 2011. As for the Nagpur and Jalandhar projects, design and planning are currently in progress with construction targeted to commence shortly.

In the Indian retail space, CMA has an early-mover advantage with its portfolio of nine projects. CMA’s business strategy is to leverage on its portfolio of operating and development projects to build a presence and platform in India that would allow it to expand its portfolio over time.

The potential of the Indian market is considerable given the country’s rapidly growing economy (the Survey of Professional Forecasters conducted by Reserve Bank of India in December 2010 estimated Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth at 8.7% for FY 2010/11), burgeoning population (1.2 billion people), growing middle class and increasing consumerism.

PERFORMANCE REVIEW2010 marked the first full year of operations since CMA’s listing in November 2009. It was an exciting year where we saw several acquisitions and monetisation of assets. The underlying performance of our malls continued to improve with net property yield growing 19.0% in FY 2010 as compared to FY 2009. The better operating performance from our malls coupled with the improving economic conditions and outlook also led to increases in capital values for the Group’s property portfolios in Singapore, China and Malaysia. With these positive attributes, CMA Group achieved a profit after tax and minority interests (PATMI) of S$421.9 million for FY 2010.

During the year, we acquired Meili Mall and Tianfu Mall in Chengdu, as well as invested in shopping mall and office developments in Shanghai Luwan and Raffles City Changning. These acquisitions and investments were part of our strategy to grow our China portfolio to 40.0% of the Group’s assets. In addition, we entered into a joint venture to develop an integrated retail and residential project at the Bedok Town Centre in Singapore, as well as acquired Queensbay Mall in Penang.

The Group not only looked at new investments but also actively evaluated its existing portfolios to unlock shareholders’ value. To this end, the Group monetised

Clarke Quay and three malls in Malaysia, namely Gurney Plaza, Sungei Wang and The Mines, which yielded S$496.0 million net sales proceeds. This was in line with CMA’s strategy to consistently recycle capital for reinvestment.

Compared to FY 2009, FY 2010’s PATMI of S$421.9 million was 8.7% higher than FY 2009’s PATMI of S$388.1 million. This was achieved despite lower revaluation gain of properties, lower profit recognition from sale of units in The Orchard Residences, lower monetisation gain from the sale of properties/investments, as well as higher overheads. The increase in FY 2010’s PATMI was not only contributed by the better operating performance from the malls, it was also due to higher contributions from fund management entities, as well as lower finance costs due to capitalisation of loans from CapitaLand and its related corporation prior to CMA’s Initial Public Offering (IPO) in November 2009.

REVENUEThe increase in revenue from S$228.9 million in FY 2009 to S$245.4 million in FY 2010 was mainly due to higher contributions from the fund management entities and higher project management fee from Singapore. However, the increase was partially offset by loss of revenue from the three malls in Malaysia and Clarke Quay which were monetised

in July 2010, as well as lower property management fees from Singapore and China.

Geographically, Singapore, China and Malaysia continued to be the main contributors. The Group will continue with its strategy to grow its presence in these three core markets. In Singapore, revenue for FY 2010 of S$108.7 million was higher than last year by 28.9% mainly due to higher contributions from the fund management entities and project management fee from One-North and JCube. However, the increase was partially offset by loss of revenue arising from the monetisation of Clarke Quay and loss of property management fee from VivoCity as the contract had ended.

Revenue of S$78.7 million from China for FY 2010 was higher by 25.1% compared to FY 2009. This was mainly due to higher contributions from the fund management entities and higher project management fees from China malls.

For Malaysia, FY 2010’s revenue of S$49.5 million was lower by 37.4% compared to FY 2009 mainly due to monetisation of the three malls to CapitaMalls Malaysia Trust (CMMT) in July 2010.

Japan and India both registered higher revenue of S$4.7 million and S$3.8 million respectively mainly due to higher contributions from fund management entities.

EARNINGS ANALYSISThe Group’s earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) for FY 2010 were S$472.4 million. This was 9.3% lower than FY 2009, primarily due to lower revaluation gain of properties, absence of divestment gain from the sale of Link REIT units, lower profit recognition from sale of units in The Orchard Residences as well as lower share of contributions from the three malls in Malaysia and Clarke Quay which were monetised. These were partially offset by higher contributions from ION Orchard which commenced operations in July 2009, higher contributions from CapitaMalls Trust (CMT) and fund management entities, as well as higher foreign exchange gain.

EBIT from Singapore for FY 2010 was lower at S$345.0 million, a decrease of 18.1% from FY 2009. The decrease was primarily due to lower profit recognition from sale of units in The Orchard Residences and lower share of contribution arising from monetisation of Clarke Quay. In addition, revaluation gain for FY 2010 was lower. The decrease was partially mitigated by higher contributions from ION Orchard which commenced operations in July 2009 and higher contributions from the fund management entities.

Page 68: CapitaMalls Asia Annual Report 2010

PERFORMANCE REVIEWEBIT from China for FY 2010 was S$89.4 million, an increase of 10.1% from FY 2009. The increase was mainly attributable to higher revaluation gain of investment properties, higher contributions from the three China private equity funds, as well as from the fund management entities. The better performance was achieved despite the absence of divestment gain from the sale of The Link REIT units which was recorded last year.

EBIT from Malaysia for FY 2010 was comparable to FY 2009 at S$52.6 million, mainly due to divestment gain from the sale of the three malls to CMMT and higher foreign exchange gain, but partially offset by lower share of contribution arising from the monetisation of the three malls.

EBIT from Japan for FY 2010 was a loss of S$8.3 million or 59.9% lower than FY 2009. The lower negative EBIT was due mainly to lower share of associates’ revaluation loss of investment properties.

EBIT from India for FY 2010 was a loss of S$6.3 million or 50.5% lower than FY 2009. The lower negative EBIT was mainly due to the lower share of revaluation loss of investment properties in CapitaRetail India Development Fund.

DIVIDENDSThe Board of Directors is pleased to propose a first and final dividend of 2.0 cents per share in respect of the financial year ended 31 December 2010. This amounts to a payout of approximately S$77.7 million based on the number of issued shares as at 31 December 2010. The dividend is subject to shareholders’ approval at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting of the Company.

For FY 2009, a first and final dividend of 1.0 cent per share totalling S$38.8 million was approved and paid in May 2010.

ASSETSThe Group’s total assets as at 31 December 2010 stood at S$6,982.2 million, an increase of S$485.8 million, or 7.5% from 2009’s total assets of S$6,496.4 million. The increase was mainly due to net proceeds from the sale of Clarke Quay and three malls in Malaysia, drawdown of bank loans and issue of medium term notes, new investment in Raffles City Changning, acquisition of Tianfu Mall, progressive

development expenditure for One-North, as well as higher revaluation gain of properties held by our associates. The increase in total assets was partially offset by the monetisation of Clarke Quay and three malls in Malaysia.

BORROWINGSDuring 2010, the Group established the S$2.0 billion Euro-Medium Term Note Programme for which the maiden issue of S$350.0 million 7-year notes was successfully issued. Compared to the net cash position of S$41.4 million at end 2009, the Group had a much higher net cash position of S$618.3 million as at 31 December 2010. This comprised gross debts totaling S$700.0 million with a strong cash position of S$1,318.3 million.

SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITYAs at 31 December 2010, the Group’s equity attributable to shareholders increased by 6.8% from S$5,459.5 million to S$5,828.5 million. The increase arose from the retained profits made by the Group during the year. The Group’s net tangible assets per share stood at S$1.50 as at 31 December 2010.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENTThe Group and the Company are exposed to market risk (including interest rate, foreign currency and price risks), credit risk and liquidity risk arising from its diversified portfolio business. The Group’s risk management approach seeks to minimise the potential material adverse effects from these exposures. As a whole, the Group has implemented risk management policies and guidelines which set out its tolerance of risk and its general risk management philosophy. In connection with this, the Group has established a framework and process to monitor the exposures so as to ensure appropriate measures can be implemented in a timely and effective manner. Further details of the Group’s financial risk management objectives and policies can be found under Note 32 to the Financial Statements.

MANAGEMENT AND SOURCES OF FUNDINGThe Group strives to maintain a prudent capital structure and actively reviews its cashflow, debt maturity profile and overall liquidity position on an ongoing basis. Its main sources of operating cashflows are derived from : 1) fee-based incomes from fund management, mall management, project management and property management; 2) related

income comprising primarily rental income arising from investment properties held by its subsidiaries; and 3) recycling of capital through monetisation of assets. As part of its liquidity management, sufficient undrawn banking facilities are set up to support its funding requirements, investment needs and its growth plans.

The Group has a total book equity of S$5,888.2 million, net cash position of S$618.3 million and a strong liquidity position with S$1,318.3 million of cash reserves on the balance sheet. Complemented by available credit facilities of S$864.1 million and debt security capacity of S$1,650.0 million, the Group is in a strong position to support its working capital requirements, refinancing needs and to expeditiously respond to any potential investment opportunities.

FINANCE COSTS FOR THE GROUPFinance costs for the Group was S$25.6 million for the financial year ended 2010, which is 77.0% lower compared to S$111.4 million in FY 2009.

The decrease in finance costs was primarily due to the absence of inter-company loans from CapitaLand and its related corporations as such loans were capitalised on 16 November 2009 prior to the IPO.

SOURCES OF FUNDINGAs at 31 December 2010, 49.9% of the Group’s total debt was raised through the capital market and the balance 50.1% was from bank borrowings. In FY 2009, 12.1% of total debt was raised through capital market and 87.9% from bank borrowings.

COMMITMENT OF FUNDINGAs at 31 December 2010, the Group has available and unutilised credit facilities of S$864.1 million. The Group monitors its asset versus liability match and ensures that an appropriate portion of committed funding is put in place to match the planned investments holding periods. Taking into account the Group’s investment strategy and uncertainty in the global environment, committed financing was secured whenever possible to support its ongoing investments. This was carefully balanced with short term

lines which allowed the Group to optimise the overall cost of funding, facilitate repayment of its debts from monetisations or sale proceeds and yet assured the Group with sufficient financial capacity to support its operations, pursue acquisitions and investment opportunities.

Additionally, the Group reviews its debt profile closely so as to diversify the refinancing risks and spread out the debt maturity. In reviewing the maturity profile of its debt portfolio, the Group also took into account any monetisation or investment plans and the prevailing credit market conditions.

AVAILABLE LINES BY NATIONALITY OF BANKS AS AT 31 DECEMBER 2010The Group continues to maintain and build an extensive and active relationship with a network of international banks. With this varied spectrum of network, the Group is able to tap on the strengths and support from the financial institutions in pursuing its strategic growth and presence, thus enhancing its competitiveness.

INTEREST RATE PROFILEIn managing the interest rate profile, the Group takes into account the interest rate outlook on various currencies of loans, holding periods of its investment portfolio and timing of planned monetisations. As at 31 December 2010, the fixed rate borrowings constitute 71.3% of the debt portfolio and the balance 28.7% were on floating rate basis. As finance cost formed an integral component of the Group’s operating costs, the Group continues to actively review its debt portfolio to achieve a prudent mix of fixed and floating rate borrowings.

INTEREST COVER RATIO (ICR)The Group recorded a net interest income of S$0.4 million in FY 2010 as compared to net interest expense of S$86.1 million in FY 2009.

As a result, the ICR for FY 2010 is not meaningful (FY 2009: 5.8 times).

the performance Share plan and the Restricted Stock plan (collectively referred to as the “Share plans”) were approved and adopted at the Company's Extraordinary General Meeting held on 30 october 2009.

the performance Share plan is intended to apply to a select group of key senior management, while the Restricted Stock plan is intended to apply to a broader base of executives as well as non-executive directors.

Under the performance Share plan, awards granted are conditional on performance targets set based on medium-term corporate objectives. Awards represent the right of a participant to receive fully paid shares, their equivalent cash value or combinations thereof, free of charge, upon the Company achieving prescribed performance target(s). Awards are released once ERCC is satisfied that the prescribed target(s) have been achieved. there are no vesting periods beyond the performance achievement periods.

Under the Restricted Stock plan, awards granted to eligible participants vest only after the satisfactory completion of time–based service conditions or where the award is performance-related, after a further period of service beyond the performance target completion date (performance-based restricted awards). No minimum vesting periods are prescribed under the Restricted Stock plan.

Awards granted under Restricted Stock plan differ from awards granted under the performance Share plan in that an extended vesting period is imposed beyond the performance target completion date, that is, they also incorporate a time-based service condition as well, to encourage participants to continue serving the Group beyond the achievement date of the pre-determined performance target(s). In addition, the Restricted Stock plan also enables grants of fully paid shares to be made to non-executive directors as part of their remuneration in respect of their office as such in lieu of cash.

the principal terms of the Share plans are:

• Duration

the Share plans shall continue to be in force at the discretion of the ERCC, subject to a maximum period of 10 years commencing on 30 october 2009, provided always that the Share plans may continue beyond the above stipulated period with the approval of shareholders in general meeting and of any relevant authorities which may then be required.

Notwithstanding the expiry or termination of the Share plans, any awards made to participants prior to such expiry or termination will continue to remain valid.

• ParticipantsoftheSharePlans

In respect of the performance Share plan and Restricted Stock plan, the following persons shall be eligible to participate:

– Group Executives who have attained the age of 21 years and hold such rank as may be designated by the ERCC from time to time;

– Non–Executive Directors (other than Non–Executive Directors of parent Group) who, in the opinion of the ERCC, have contributed or will contribute to the success of the Group; and

No shares will be released if the threshold targets are not met at the end of the performance period. on the other hand, if superior targets are met, more shares than the baseline award could be delivered up to a maximum of 200% of the baseline award.

During the financial year, the ERCC of the Company has granted awards conditional on targets set for a performance period, currently prescribed to be a one–year performance period. A specified number of shares will only be released by the ERCC to the recipients at the end of the qualifying performance period, provided the threshold targets are achieved.

the final number of shares released will depend on the achievement of pre-determined targets at the end of a one–year performance period. No shares will be released if the threshold targets are not met at the end of the performance period. on the other hand, if superior targets are met, more shares than the baseline award could be delivered up to a maximum of 150% of the baseline award. the shares have a vesting period schedule of two to three years. Recipients can receive fully paid shares, their equivalent cash value or combinations thereof, at no cost.

the Company has instituted a set of share ownership guidelines for senior management who receive shares under the Restricted Stock plan. Under these guidelines, members of the senior management team are required to retain a portion of the total number of the Company shares acquired through the Restricted Stock plan which will vary according to their job grades and base salaries. the award to non-executive directors will be time–based with no performance conditions and will be released over a vesting period of two years.

report on the financial StatementS

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of CapitaMalls Asia limited (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (the “Group”), which comprise the balance sheets of the Group and the Company as at 31 December 2010, the income statements, statements of comprehensive income and statements of changes in equity of the Group and the Company andstatementofcashflowsoftheGroupfortheyearthenended,andasummaryofsignificantaccountingpoliciesand other explanatory notes, as set out on pages 96 to 176.

Management’s 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, Chapter 50 (the “Act”) and Singapore Financial Reporting Standards, and for devising and maintaining a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide a reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorised use or disposition; and transactions are properly authorised and that they are recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of true and fair profit and loss accounts and balance sheets 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 about 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 auditor’s 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 entity’s preparation of the 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 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 financial statements.

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

1 Domicile anD activitieS

CapitaMalls Asia limited (the “Company”) is incorporated in the Republic of Singapore and has its registered office at 39 Robinson Road, #18-01, Robinson point, Singapore 068911.

the principal activities of the Company are that of investment holding and provision of management services. the principal activities of the subsidiaries are set out in Note 36 to the financial statements.

the immediate and ultimate holding company is Capitaland limited which is incorporated in the Republic of Singapore.

the consolidated financial statements relate to the Company and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) and the Group’s interests in associates and jointly–controlled entities.

2 baSiS of preparation anD Significant accounting policieS

2.1 Basis of preparation

(a) statement of compliance

the financial statements are prepared in accordance with Singapore Financial Reporting Standards ("FRS").

(b) Basis of measurement

the financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except as disclosed in the accounting policies below.

(c) Functional and presentation currency

the financial statements are presented in Singapore dollars which is the Company’s functional currency. All financial information presented in Singapore dollars has been rounded to the nearest thousand, unless otherwise stated.

(d) Use of estimates and judgments

the preparation of financial statements in conformity with FRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.

Information about critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements is included in the following notes:

Note 4 – Valuation of investment properties

Note 5 – Valuation of properties under development

Note 12 – Recoverability of loans and receivables

Note 32 – Valuation of financial instruments

Information about assumptions and estimation uncertainties that have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment within the next financial year are included in the following notes:

Note 26 – Utilisation of tax losses

Note 30 – Contingent liabilities

(e) Changes in accounting policies

(i) accounting for business combination

the Group has applied FRS 103 Business Combinations (2009) in its accounting for business combinations. Business combinations are now accounted for using the acquisition method as at the acquisition date (see Note 2.2(a)(i)).

previously, business combinations were accounted for under the purchase method. the cost of an acquisition was measured at the fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange, plus costs directly attributable to the acquisition. the excess of the Group’s interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over the cost of acquisition was credited to profit or loss in the period of acquisition. For business acquisitions that were achieved in stages, any existing equity interests in the acquiree were not re-measured to their fair value. Contingent consideration was recognised as an adjustment to the cost of acquisition only when it was probable and could be measured reliably.

the change in accounting policy has been applied prospectively to new business combinations occurring on or after 1 January 2010 and has no impact on earnings per share.

(ii) accounting for acquisitions of non–controlling interests

From 1 January 2010, the Group has applied FRS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements (2009) in accounting for acquisitions of non–controlling interests. See Note 2.2(a)(v) for the new accounting policy.

(e) Changes in accounting policies (Cont’d)

(ii) accounting for acquisitions of non-controlling interests (Cont’d)

previously, goodwill was recognised on the acquisition of non-controlling interests in a subsidiary, which represented the excess of the cost of the additional investment over the carrying amount of the interest in the net assets acquired at the date of the transaction.

the change in accounting policy has been applied prospectively and has no impact on earnings per share.

2.2 significant accounting policies

the accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these financial statements, and have been applied consistently by Group entities, except as explained in note 2.1(e), which addresses changes in accounting policies.

(a) Basis of consolidation

(i) Business combinations

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method as at the acquisition date, which is the date on which control is transferred to the Group. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. In assessing control, the Group takes into consideration potential voting rights that are currently exercisable.

the consideration transferred does not include amounts related to the settlement of pre–existing relationships. Such amounts are generally recognised in profit or loss.

Costs related to the acquisition, other than those associated with the issue of debt or equity securities, that the Group incurs in connection with a business combination are expensed as incurred.

Any contingent consideration payable is recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. If the contingent consideration is classified as equity, it is not remeasured and settlement is accounted for within equity. otherwise, subsequent changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration are recognised in profit or loss.

the Group elects on a transaction-by-transaction basis whether to measure non-controlling interests at fair value, or at their proportionate share of the recognised amount of the identifiable net assets of the acquiree, at the acquisition date. If the business combination is achieved in stages, the Group’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured to fair value as at the acquisition date through the profit or loss.

2.2 significant accounting policies (Cont’d)

(a) Basis of consolidation (Cont’d)

(ii) subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. Control exists when the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. In assessing control, potential voting rights that presently are exercisable are taken into account.

the financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. losses applicable to the non–controlling interests in a subsidiary are allocated to the non-controlling interests even if doing so causes the non-controlling interests to have a deficit balance.

Changes in the Group’s interests in subsidiaries that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions. Upon the loss of control, the Group derecognises the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary, any non-controlling interests and the other components of equity related to the subsidiary. Any surplus or deficit arising on the loss of control is recognised in profit or loss. If the Group retains any interest in the previous subsidiary, then such interest is measured at fair value at the date that control is lost. Subsequently, it is accounted for as an equity–accounted investee orasanavailable-for-salefinancialassetdependingonthelevelofinfluenceretained.

(iii) special purpose entities

the Group has established a number of special purpose entities ("SpE") for investment purposes. the Group may not have any direct or indirect shareholdings in these entities. An SpE is consolidated if, based on an evaluation of the substance of its relationship with the Group, and the SpE’s risks and rewards, the Group concludes that it controls the SpE. SpEs controlled by the Group were established under terms that impose strict limitations on the decision-making powers of the SpEs’ management and that result in the Group receiving the majority of the benefits related to the SpEs’ operations and net assets, being exposed to the majority of risks incident to the SpEs’ activities, and retaining the majority of the residual or ownership risks related to the SpEs or their assets.

(iv) associates and jointly–controlled entities

AssociatesarethoseentitiesinwhichtheGrouphassignificantinfluence,butnotcontrol,overtheirfinancialandoperatingpolicies.SignificantinfluenceispresumedtoexistwhentheGroupholdsbetween 20% and 50% of the voting power of another entity. Jointly-controlled entities are those entities over whose activities the Group has joint control, established by contractual agreement and requiring unanimous consent for strategic financial and operating decisions.

Associates and jointly-controlled entities (collectively referred to as “equity-accounted investees”) are accounted for using the equity method and are recognised initially at cost. the cost of the investments include transaction costs.

2.2 significant accounting policies (Cont’d)

(a) Basis of consolidation (Cont’d)

(iv) associates and jointly-controlled entities (Cont’d)

the consolidated financial statements include the Group’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the equity-accounted investees, after adjustments to align the accounting policies of the equity-accounted investees with those of the Group, from the date that significant influenceor jointcontrolcommencesuntil thedate thatsignificant influenceor jointcontrolceases.

When the Group’s share of losses exceeds its interest in an equity-accounted investee, the carrying amount of that interest is reduced to zero and the recognition of further losses is discontinued except to the extent that the Group has an obligation or has made payments on behalf of the investee.

(v) acquisition of non-controlling interests

Acquisitions of non-controlling interests are accounted for as transactions with owners in their capacity as owners and therefore no goodwill is recognised as a result of such transactions.

(vi) transactions eliminated on consolidation

Intra–group balances, and any unrealised income or expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Unrealised gains arising from transactions with associates and jointly-controlled entities are eliminated against the investment to the extent of the Group’s interest in the investee. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.

(vii) accounting for subsidiaries, associates and jointly-controlled entities by the Company

Investments in subsidiaries, associates and jointly-controlled entities are stated in the Company’s balance sheet at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

(b) Foreign currencies

(i) Foreign currency transactions

Items included in the financial statements of each entity in the Group are measured using the currencythatbestreflectstheeconomicsubstanceoftheunderlyingeventsandcircumstancesrelevant to that entity (the “functional currency”).

transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of the Group’s entities at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at the date on which the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items in a foreign currency that are measured in terms of historical costs are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.

2.2 significant accounting policies (Cont’d)

(b) Foreign currencies (Cont’d)

(i) Foreign currency transactions (Cont’d)

Foreign currency differences arising from retranslation are recognised in profit or loss, except for differences arising from the retranslation of available-for-sale equity instruments, a financial liability designated as a hedge of the net investment in a foreign operation (see (iii) below), or qualifying cashflowhedges,whicharerecognisedinothercomprehensiveincome.

(ii) Foreign operations

the assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including fair value adjustments arising from the acquisition, are translated to Singapore dollars at exchange rates prevailing at the reporting date. the income and expenses of foreign operations are translated to Singapore dollars at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Fair value adjustments arising from the acquisition of a foreign operation are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operation and translated at the closing rate.

Foreign currency differences are recognised in other comprehensive income, and presented in the foreign currency translation reserve (translation reserve) in equity. however, if the operation is not a wholly-owned subsidiary, then the relevant proportionate share of the translation difference is allocated to the non-controlling interests. When a foreign operation is disposed of such that control, significantinfluenceorjointcontrolislost,thecumulativeamountinthetranslationreserverelatedto that foreign operation is transferred to profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on disposal. When the Group disposes of only part of its interest in a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation while retaining control, the relevant proportion of the cumulative amount is reattributed to non-controlling interests. When the Group disposes of only part of its investment in an associate or jointly-controlled entitythat includesaforeignoperationwhileretainingsignificant influenceor jointcontrol, therelevant proportion of the cumulative amount is reclassified to profit or loss.

When the settlement of a monetary item receivable from or payable to a foreign operation is neither planned nor likely in the foreseeable future, foreign exchange gains and losses arising from such a monetary item are considered to form part of a net investment in a foreign operation. these are recognised in other comprehensive income, and are presented in the translation reserve in equity.

(iii) Hedge of a net investment in foreign operation

the Group applies hedge accounting to foreign currency differences arising between the functional currency of the foreign operation and the Company’s functional currency (Singapore dollars), regardless of whether the net investment is held directly or through an intermediate parent.

(iii) Hedge of a net investment in foreign operation (Cont’d)

Foreign currency differences arising on the retranslation of a financial liability designated as a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation are recognised in other comprehensive income to the extent the hedge is effective, and presented within equity in the foreign currency translation reserve. to the extent that the hedge is ineffective, such differences are recognised in profit or loss. When the hedged net investment is disposed of, the relevant amount in the foreign currency translation reserve is transferred to profit or loss as part of the profit or loss on disposal.

(c) plant and equipment

plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset.

Subsequent expenditure relating to plant and equipment that has already been recognised is added to the carrying amount of the asset when it is probable that future economic benefits, in excess of the originally assessedstandardofperformanceoftheexistingasset,willflowtotheGroup.Allothersubsequentexpenditure is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred.

Depreciation is recognised on a straight–line basis over their estimated useful lives of each component of an item of plant and equipment as follows:

Improvement to premises – 3 to 5 years

plant, machinery and other improvements – 3 to 10 years

Motor vehicles – 5 years

Furniture, fittings and equipment – 2 to 5 years

the assets’ residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if necessary, at each reporting date.

(d) investment properties and properties under development

Investment properties are properties held either to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or both. properties under development are properties being constructed or developed for future use as investment properties. they are not for sale in the ordinary course of business, used in the production or supply of goods or services, or for administrative purposes.

Investment properties and properties under development are initially recognised at cost, including transaction costs, and subsequently at fair value with any change therein recognised in profit or loss. Rental income from investment properties is accounted for in the manner described in Note 2.2(l). the fair value is based on internal valuation or independent professional valuation. Independent professional valuation is obtained at least once every three years.

2.2 significant accounting policies (Cont’d)

(d) investment properties and properties under development (Cont’d)

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

(e) Financial instruments

(i) Non–derivative financial instruments

Non–derivative financial instruments comprise investments in equity securities, trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents, loans and borrowings and trade and other payables.

Non–derivative financial instruments are recognised initially at fair value plus, for instruments not at fair value through profit or loss, any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, non–derivative financial instruments are measured as described below.

A financial instrument is recognised if the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets are derecognised if the Group’s contractual rights to the cash flowsfromthefinancialassetsexpireoriftheGrouptransfersthefinancialassettoanotherpartywithout retaining control or transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset. Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are accounted for at trade date, i.e., the date that the Group commits itself to purchase or sell the asset. Financial liabilities are derecognised if the Group’s obligations specified in the contract expire or are discharged or cancelled.

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and bank deposits.

available–for–sale financial assets

Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at fair value and changes therein, other than for impairment losses, and foreign exchange differences on available-for-sale monetary items (see Note 2.2(b)), are recognised in other comprehensive income and presented within equity in the fair value reserve. When an investment is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss in other comprehensive income is transferred to profit or loss.

Investment in equity securities whose fair value cannot be reliably measured are measured at cost less impairment loss.

Others

Subsequent to intial recognition, other non-derivative financial instruments which are categorised as loans and receivables or financial liabilities, are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses.

2.2 significant accounting policies (Cont’d)

(e) Financial instruments (Cont’d)

(ii) derivative financial instruments and hedging activities

the Group holds derivative financial instruments to hedge its foreign currency and interest rate risk exposures. Embedded derivatives are separated from the host contract and accounted for separately if the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract and the embedded derivative are not closely related, a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the definition of a derivative, and the combined instrument is not measured at fair value through profit or loss.

Derivatives are recognised initially at fair value; attributable transaction costs are recognised in profit or loss when incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives are measured at fair value, and changes therein are accounted for as described below.

Cash flow hedges

Changesinthefairvalueofthederivativehedginginstrumentdesignatedasacashflowhedgearerecognised directly in other comprehensive income and presented in the hedging reserve in equity to the extent that the hedge is effective. to the extent that the hedge is ineffective, changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss. If the hedging instrument no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. If the forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, then the balance in equity is reclassified to profit or loss.

When the hedged item is a non–financial asset, the amount recognised in equity is transferred to the carrying amount of the asset when it is recognised. In other cases, the amount recognised in equity is transferred to profit or loss in the same period that the hedged item affects profit or loss.

Fair value hedges

Changes in the fair value of a derivative hedging instrument designated as a fair value hedge are recognised in profit or loss. the hedged item is stated at fair value in respect of the risk being hedged, with any gain or loss being recognised in the profit or loss.

separable embedded derivatives

Changes in the fair value of separable embedded derivatives are recognised immediately in profit or loss.

(iii) Financial guarantees

Financial guarantee contracts are classified as financial liabilities unless the Group or the Company has previously asserted explicitly that it regards such contracts as insurance contracts and accounted for them as such.

(iii) Financial guarantees (Cont'd)

Financial guarantees classified as financial liabilities

Such financial guarantees are recognised initially at fair value and classified as financial liabilities. Subsequent to initial measurement, the financial guarantees are stated at the higher of (i) the amount that would be recognised if they were accounted for as contingent liabilities; and (ii) the initial fair value less cumulative amortisation. When financial guarantees are terminated before their original expiry date, the carrying amount of the financial guarantees is transferred to profit or loss.

Financial guarantees classified as insurance contracts

these financial guarantees are accounted for as insurance contracts. provision is recognised based on the Group’s or the Company’s estimate of the ultimate cost of settling all claims incurred but unpaid at the balance sheet date.

the provision is assessed by reviewing individual claims and tested for adequacy by comparing the amount recognised and the amount that would be required to settle the guarantee contract.

(iv) impairment of financial assets

A financial asset is assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any objective evidence that it is impaired. A financial asset is considered to be impaired if objective evidence indicatesthatoneormoreeventshavehadanegativeeffectontheestimatedfuturecashflowsofthat asset.

Individually significant financial assets are tested for impairment on an individual basis. the remaining financial assets are assessed collectively in groups that share similar credit risk characteristics.

In assessing collective impairment, the Group uses historical trends of probability of default, timing of recoveries and the amount of loss incurred, adjusted for management’s judgment as to whether current economic and credit conditions are such that the actual losses are likely to be greater or lesser than that suggested by historical trends.

An impairment loss in respect of a financial asset measured at amortised cost is calculated as the differencebetweenitscarryingamount,andthepresentvalueoftheestimatedfuturecashflowsdiscountedattheoriginaleffectiveinterestrate.Lossesarerecognisedinprofitorlossandreflectedas an allowance account against receivables. When a subsequent event causes the amount of impairment loss to decrease, the decrease in impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss.

Impairment losses on available-for-sale financial asset are recognised by reclassifying the losses accumulated in the available-for-sale reserve in equity to profit or loss. the cumulative loss that is reclassified from equity to profit or loss is the difference between the acquisition cost, net of any principal repayment and amortisation, and the current fair value, less any impairment loss recognised previously in profit or loss.

(iv) impairment of financial assets (Cont’d)

If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of an impaired available-for-sale debt security increases and the increase can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised in profit or loss, then the impairment loss is reversed, with the amount of the reversal recognised in profit or loss. however, any subsequent recovery in the fair value of an impaired available-for-sale equity security is recognised in other comprehensive income.

(f) impairment – non-financial assets

the carrying amounts of the Group’s non-financial assets, other than investment properties and deferred tax assets, are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the assets’ recoverable amounts are estimated. An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit (“CGU”) exceeds its estimated recoverable amount.

the recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs tosell.Inassessingvalueinuse,theestimatedfuturecashflowsarediscountedtotheirpresentvalueusingapre-taxdiscountratethatreflectscurrentmarketassessmentsofthetimevalueofmoneyandthe risks specific to the asset or CGU. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets that cannot be testedindividuallyaregroupedtogetherintothesmallestgroupofassetsthatgeneratecashinflowsfromcontinuingusethatarelargelyindependentofthecashinflowsofotherassetsorCGU.

Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss unless it reverses a previous revaluation credited to equity, in which case it is charged to equity. Impairment losses recognised in respect of CGUs are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the units and then to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the unit (group of units) on a pro-rata basis.

Impairment losses recognised in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indication that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

Goodwill that forms part of the carrying amount of an investment in an associate is not recognised separately, and therefore is not tested for impairment separately. Instead, the entire amount of the investment in an associate is tested for impairment as a single asset when there is objective evidence that the investment in an associate may be impaired.

(g) development properties for sale

Development properties for sale are stated at the lower of cost plus, where appropriate, a portion of the attributable profit, and estimated net realisable value, net of progress billings. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price less costs to be incurred in selling the property.

(g) development properties for sale (Cont’d)

the cost of properties under development comprises specifically identified costs, including acquisition costs, development expenditure, borrowing costs and other related expenditure. Borrowing costs payable on loans funding a development property are also capitalised, on a specific identification basis, as part of the cost of the development property until the completion of development.

(h) share capital

ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares and share options are recognised as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.

(i) Employee benefits

short term employee benefits

All short term employee benefits, including accumulated compensated absences, are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which the employees render their services.

A provision is recognised for the amount expected to be paid under short-term cash bonus or profit-sharing plans if the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.

defined contribution plans

Contributions to post-employment benefits under defined contribution plans are recognised as an expense in profit or loss as incurred.

share-based payments

For equity-settled share-based payment transactions, the fair value of the services received is recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in equity over the vesting period during which the employees become unconditionally entitled to the equity instrument. the fair value of the services received is determined by reference to the fair value of the equity instrument granted at the date of the grant. At each reporting date, the number of equity instruments that are expected to be vested are estimated. the impact on the revision of original estimates is recognised as an expense and as a corresponding adjustment to equity over the remaining vesting period, unless the revision to original estimates is due to market conditions. No adjustment is made if the revision or actual outcome differs from the original estimate due to market conditions.

For cash–settled share-based payment transactions, the fair value of the goods or services received is recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in liability. the fair value of the services received is determined by reference to the fair value of the liability. Until the liability is settled, the fair value of the liability is remeasured at each reporting date and at the date of settlement, with any changes in fair value recognised as an expense for the period.

A provision is recognised if, as a result of a past event, the Group has a present legal or constructive obligationthatcanbeestimatedreliably,anditisprobablethatanoutflowofeconomicbenefitswillberequired to settle the obligation.

A provision for onerous contract is recognised when the expected benefits to be derived by the Group from a contract are lower than the unavoidable cost of meeting its obligations under the contract. the provision is measured at the present value of the lower of the expected cost of terminating the contract and the expected net cost of continuing with the contract.

(k) leases

When entities within the Group are lessees of an operating lease

Where the Group has the use of assets under operating leases, payments made under the leases are recognised in the profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. lease incentives received are recognised in profit or loss as an integral part of the total lease payments made. Contingent rentals are charged to profit or loss in the accounting period in which they are incurred.

When entities within the Group are lessors of an operating lease

Assets subject to operating leases are included in investment properties (see Note 2.2(d)).

(l) Revenue recognition

Rental income

Rental income receivable under operating leases is recognised in profit or loss on a straight–line basis over the term of the lease, except where an alternative basis is more representative of the pattern of benefits to be derived from the leased asset. lease incentives granted are recognised as an integral part of the total rental income to be received. Contingent rentals are recognised as income in the accounting period in which they are earned.

Management and consultancy fee

Management and consultancy fee is recognised in profit or loss as and when services are rendered.

(l) Revenue recognition (Cont’d)

development properties for sale

the Group recognises income on property development projects when the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer. In cases where the Group is obliged to perform any significant acts after the transfer of legal title or equitable interest, revenue is recognised as the acts are performed based on the percentage of completion method, which is an allowed alternative method under Recommended Accounting practice 11 pre-completion Contracts for the Sale of Development property ("RAp 11") issued by the Institute of Certified public Accountants of Singapore in october 2005. Under the percentage of completion method, profit is brought into profit or loss only in respect of sales procured and to the extent that such profit relates to the progress of construction work. the progress of construction work is measured by the proportion of the construction costs incurred to date to the estimated total construction costs for each project. Depending on the selling conditions associated with each development project, revenue is generally not recognised if the Group provides various guarantees and other financial support to the buyers (“continuing involvement”) during the period of property development. Such continuing involvement by the Group would then require revenue to be deferred until the Group’s continuing involvement ceases.

Revenue excludes goods and services or other sale taxes and is after deduction of any trade discounts. No revenue is recognised if there are significant uncertainties regarding recovery of the consideration due, associated costs or the possible return of unit sold.

dividends

Dividend income is recognised on the date that the Group’s right to receive payment is established.

interest income

Interest income is recognised as it accrues using the effective interest method.

(m) Government grants – Jobs Credit scheme

Cash grants received from the government in relation to the Jobs Credit Scheme are recognised as income upon receipt. this scheme has ended as of March 2010.

(n) Finance costs

Borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method in the period in which they are incurred, except to the extent that they are capitalised as being directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset which necessarily takes a substantial period of time to be prepared for its intended use or sale.

(o) income tax expense

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to a business combination, or items recognised directly in equity or in other comprehensive income.

2.2 significant accounting policies (Cont’d)

(o) income tax expense (Cont’d)

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

Deferred tax is recognised using the balance sheet method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognised for the following temporary differences: the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit, and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries and jointly-controlled entities to the extent that it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to the temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realised simultaneously.

A deferred tax asset is recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.

(p) Earnings per share

the Group presents basic and diluted earnings per share (“EpS”) data for its ordinary shares. Basic EpS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to owners of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for own shares held. Diluted EpS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to owners of the Company and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding, adjusted for own shares held, for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, which comprise awards of performance and restricted shares granted to employees.

(q) segment reporting

An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the Group’s other components. All operating segments’ results are reviewed and used by the management for strategic decisions making and resources allocation.

(r) Related parties

(a) Investment properties are stated at fair value based on internal valuations or valuations performed by independent professional valuers. All of the properties were independently valued during the year. the fair values are based on open market values, being the estimated amount for which a property could be exchanged on the date of the valuation between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s length transaction wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion.

In determining the fair value, the valuers have used valuation techniques which involve certain estimates. the key assumptions used to determine the fair value of investment properties include market–corroborated capitalisation yield, terminal yield and discount rate. In relying on the valuation reports, management has exerciseditsjudgmentandissatisfiedthatthevaluationmethodsandestimatesarereflectiveofcurrentmarket conditions and that the valuation reports are prepared in accordance with recognised appraisal and valuation standards.

the valuers have considered valuation techniques including the direct comparison method, discounted cashflowmethodand/orcapitalisationapproachinarrivingattheopenmarketvalueasatthebalancesheet date.

Fair value of the investment properties were based on independent professional valuations carried out by the following valuers on the dates stated below:

(b) Investment properties comprise retail properties that are held mainly for use by tenants under operating leases. At 31 December 2010, there is no non-cancellable operating lease commitment. In the previous year, most leases contain an initial non-cancellable period of three to six years. Contingent rents, representing income based on certain sales achieved by tenants, recognised in profit or loss during the year amounted to $4.8 million (2009: $4.6 million).

(c) At 31 December 2010, certain investment properties with carrying value totalling approximately $304.4 million (2009: $1,116.6 million) were mortgaged to banks either to secure credit facilities or for the issuance of notes for the Group (Note 16).

the Group’s historical experience in the collection of accounts receivables falls within the recorded allowances. the Group believes that no additional credit risk beyond the amounts provided for collection losses is inherent in the Group’s trade receivables, based on historical payment behaviours and the security deposits held.

the majority of the trade receivables are mainly from tenants that have good credit records with the Group. the allowance account in respect of trade receivables is used to record impairment losses unless the Group is satisfied that no recovery of the amount owing is possible; at that point the amounts are considered irrecoverable and are written off against the financial asset directly.

Capital management

the Group’s policy is to build a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain future development of the business. the Group monitors the return on capital, which the Group defines as total shareholders’ equity, excluding non-controlling interests, and the level of dividends to ordinary shareholders.

the Group also monitors capital using a net debt to equity ratio, which is defined as net borrowings divided by total equity (including non-controlling interests).

the Group seeks to strike a balance between the higher returns that might be possible with higher levels of borrowings and the liquidity and security afforded by a sound capital position.

there were no changes in the Group’s approach to capital management during the year.

three of the subsidiaries in the Group are required to maintain certain minimum base capital and financial resources, or shareholders’ funds as they are holders of Capital Markets Services license registered under the Monetary Authority of Singapore or the Securities Commission Malaysia to conduct the regulated activity of Real Estate Investment trust management. these subsidiaries have complied with the applicable requirements throughout the year.

the Company and its other subsidiaries are not subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

the fair value of services received in return for options granted is measured by reference to the fair value of options granted. the fair value of the options granted is measured based on Enhanced trinomial (hull and White) valuation model.

the share price is based on volume-weighted average share price for three consecutive trading days prior to the grant date. the expected volatility is based on the historic volatility and calculated based on 36 months prior to the date of grant. Capitaland uses 10 (or five) years risk–free rate for options with a 10 (or five) years contractual term. Expected dividend yield is based on expected dividend payout over the one-year volume-weighted average share price prior to the grant date. pre-vesting forfeiture rates and post-vesting forfeiture rates are based on historical option forfeiture and employee turnover rates. Exercise multiple is estimated based on historical employee exercise behaviour.

the Modification Exercise in the share Option plan

Capitaland paid a special dividend of $0.05 per issued ordinary share for the financial year ended 31 December 2009. In accordance with Capitaland’s Share option plan, when Capitaland declares a special dividend (whether in cash or in specie), the Cl ERCC may as it deems appropriate determine whether the number of shares which are the subject of an award to the extent not yet vested shall be adjusted. Any adjustment under this rule should be made in a way that an option holder will not receive a benefit that a shareholder does not receive and has been confirmed in writing by the auditors to be in their opinion, fair and reasonable.

on 30 April 2010, adjustments to the terms of the unexercised options were made (based on the ex-rights date of 26 April 2010, and hereby also known as “modification date”) in a manner such that the option holder will maintain parity of fair value before and on the modification date using the Equivalent Economic Value concept. the fair value of options was calculated using the Enhanced trinomial (hull and White) option valuation model.

Exercise prices of the unexercised options were adjusted lower ranging between $0.05 and $0.10 per option toreflectthespecialdividendpaid.Noadjustmentsweremadetothevestingandexerciseperiodsof theoptions.

No incremental fair value of options was recognised as a result of the modification exercise and the significant inputs into the Enhanced trinomial (hull and White) valuation model were:

– Share price of $3.94, based on volume-weighted average share price for three consecutive trading days prior to the modification date;

– the volatility measured at the standard deviation of expected share price returns of 32.64%, based on 36 months closing share price prior to the modification date;

– Risk-free interest rate ranging from 0.43% to 2.13% per annum that matches the remaining life of the award. this is based on the zero-coupon Singapore Government bond yield on modification date for awards matching tenure contractual life; and

– Dividend yield of 1.46% based on expected dividend over one–year volume–weighted average share price prior to the modification date.

the Modification Exercise in the Capitaland performance share plan and Restricted stock plan

During the year, Capitaland paid a special dividend of $0.05 per issued ordinary share for the financial year ended 31 December 2009. In accordance with the rules of the Capitaland’s performance Share plan and Restricted Stock plan, when Capitaland declares a special dividend (whether in cash or in specie), the Cl ERCC may as it deems appropriate determine whether the number of shares which are the subject of an award to the extent not yet vested shall be adjusted. Any adjustment under this rule should be made in a way that a Capitaland performance Share plan or Restricted Stock plan participant will not receive a benefit that a shareholder does not receive and has been confirmed in writing by the auditors to be in their opinion, fair and reasonable.

32 financial riSK management

(a) Financial risk management objectives and policies

the Group and the Company are exposed to market risk (including interest rate, foreign currency and price risks), credit risk and liquidity risk arising from its diversified portfolio of businesses. the Group’s risk management approach seeks to minimise the potential material adverse effects from these exposures. As a whole, the Group has implemented risk management policies and guidelines which set out its tolerance of risk and its general risk management philosophy. In connection with this, the Group has established a framework and process to monitor the exposures so as to ensure appropriate measures can be implemented in a timely and effective manner.

(b) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates and equity prices will have on the Group’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. the objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return on risk.

(i) interest rate risk

the Group’s exposure to market risk for changes in interest rate environment relates mainly to its interest-bearing borrowings.

(b) Market risk (Cont’d)

(i) interest rate risk (Cont’d)

TheGroupmanagesitsinterestrateexposurebymaintainingaprudentmixoffixedandfloatingrate borrowings. the Group actively reviews its debt portfolio, taking into account the investment holding period and nature of its assets. this strategy allows it to capitalise on cheaper funding in a low interest rate environment and achieve certain level of protection against rate hikes. Generally, the interest rate exposure is managed through the use of interest rate swaps and/or fixed rate borrowing.

At31December2010,theGrouphasinterestrateswapsclassifiedascashflowhedgeswithnotionalcontract amount of $150.0 million (2009: $Nil) which pays fixed interest rate ranging from 0.84% to 0.85% (2009: Nil%) per annum and receives a variable rate equal to the Swap offer Rate on the notional amounts. the fair value of these interest rate swaps as at 31 December 2010 is a liability of $0.3 million (2009: $Nil).

At the reporting date, the interest rate profile of the interest–bearing financial instruments (after taking into account the effects of the interest rate swaps) was as follows:

GROUpCarrying amount

2010 2009$’000 $’000

Fixed rate instrumentsloans and borrowings 499,337 60,776

Variable rate instrumentsloans and borrowings 200,615 442,117

Fair value sensitivity analysis for fixed rate instruments

the Group does not account for any fixed rate loans and borrowings at fair value through profit or loss, and the Group does not designate derivatives as hedging instruments under a fair value hedge accounting model. therefore, a change in interest rates at the reporting date would not affect the profit or loss.

Cashflowsensitivityanalysisforvariablerateinstruments

For variable rate loans and borrowings, it is estimated that an increase of 100 basis points (bp) in interest rate at the reporting date would lead to a reduction in the Group’s profit before tax (and accumulated profits) by approximately $2.0 million (2009: $4.4 million). A decrease in 100bp in interest rate would have an equal but opposite effect. this analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular foreign currency rates, remain constant, and has not taken into account the effects of qualifying borrowing costs allowed for capitalisation, the associated tax effects and share of non-controlling interests.

(ii) Foreign currency risk

the Group operates internationally and is exposed to various currencies, mainly United States (US) Dollars, Chinese Renminbi, hong Kong Dollars, Malaysian Ringgit and Japanese Yen.

the Group maintains a natural hedge, whenever possible, by borrowing in the currency of the country in which the property or investment is located or by borrowing in currencies that match the future revenue stream to be generated from its investments.

Foreign exchange exposures in transactional currencies other than functional currencies of the operating entities are kept at an acceptable level.

In relation to its overseas investments in foreign subsidiaries whose net assets are exposed to currency translation risk and which are held for long term investment purposes, the differences arising from such translation are captured under the foreign currency translation reserve. these translation differences are reviewed and monitored on a regular basis.

the Group’s and Company’s exposure to foreign currencies as at 31 December 2010 and 31 December 2009 are as follows:

Sensitivity analysis

A 5% strengthening of the respective functional currencies of the subsidaries against the following foreign currencies at the reporting date would increase (decrease) equity and profit or loss by the amounts shown below. the analysis assumed that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remain constant and does not take into account the associated tax effects and share of non-controlling interests.

A 5% weakening of the respective functional currencies of the subsidiaries against the above foreign currencies would have had the equal but opposite effect on the above currencies to the amounts shown above, on the basis all other variables remain constant.

(c) Credit risk Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument

fails to meet its contractual obligations. For trade receivables, the Group has guidelines governing the process of granting credit as a service or product provider in its respective segments of business. trade and other receivables relate mainly to the Group’s tenants from its commercial buildings and retail malls. Investments and financial transactions are restricted to counterparties that meet the appropriate credit criteria.

the Group has a diversified portfolio of businesses and as at balance sheet date, there were no significant concentration of credit risk with any entity. the maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of each financial asset in the balance sheet.

liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. TheGroupactivelymanagesitsdebtmaturityprofile,operatingcashflowsandtheavailabilityoffundingso as to ensure that all refinancing, repayment and funding needs are met. As part of its overall liquidity management, the Group maintains sufficient level of cash or cash convertible investments to meet its working capital requirement. In addition, the Group strives to maintain available banking facilities at a reasonable level to its overall debt position. As far as possible, the Group will constantly raise committed funding from both capital markets and financial institutions and balance its portfolio with some short term funding so as to achieve overall cost effectiveness.

As at 31 December 2010, the Group has unutilised credit facilities amounting to $864.1 million (2009: $519.4 million).

During the year, the Group launched a $2.0 billion Euro Medium-term-Note programme, of which unsecured notes of $350.0 million has been issued as at 31 December 2010.

(e) Fair value

the following methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair values of the following significant classes of financial instruments:

(i) derivatives

the fair value of derivatives financial instruments is based on their market prices or brokers’ quotes.

(ii) available-for-sale investments

Fair values are based on quoted bid prices where available, without any deduction for transaction costs with the exception of those equity securities which are not traded in an active market. the fair value of such security is determined using a valuation technique.

(iii) Other Financial assets and liabilities

the carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities with a maturity of less than one year (including trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents, and trade and other payables) are assumed to approximate their fair values because of the short period to maturity. All other financial assets and liabilities are discounted to determine their fair values.

Wherediscountedcashflowtechniquesareused,estimated futurecashflowsarebasedonmanagement’s best estimates and the discount rate is a market-related rate for a similar instrument at the balance sheet.

Fair value hierarchy

the table below analyses financial instruments carried at fair value, by valuation method. the different levels have been defined as follows:

– level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities – level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the

asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices) – level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable

inputs).

During the year ended 31 December 2010, there were no transfers between level 1 and level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

the following table shows a reconciliation from the beginning balances to the ending balances for fair value measurements in level 3 of the fair value hierarchy:

the available-for-sale investments that are recorded in the level 3 category comprise a 17.1% effective interest in a company which indirectly owns an investment property and a 15% interest in an unquoted closed-end real estate fund, which holds investment properties. the fair value of these investments as at the reporting date was determined using a valuation technique based on the net asset value approach, which takes into consideration the fair value of the underlying assets and liabilities of the entity to which the financial instrument relates. the assets held by the relevant entities comprise mainly properties whose fair values were determined by independent licensed appraisers. the fair values of the properties were based onmarketvaluesdeterminedusingthediscountedcashflow,directcomparisonandresidualmethods.

Page 171: CapitaMalls Asia Annual Report 2010

noteS to the financial StatementS 34 new accounting StanDarDS anD interpretationS not yet aDopteD (cont’D)

INt FRS 115 which is effective for financial period commencing on 1 January 2011, clarifies when revenue and related expenses from a sale of a real estate unit should be recognised if an agreement between a developer and a buyer is reached before the construction of the real estate is completed. INt FRS 115 clarifies that contracts which do not classify as construction contracts in accordance with FRS 11 can only be accounted for under the percentage of completion method if the entity continuously transfers to the buyer control and the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the work in progress in its current state as construction progresses.

the Group’s current accounting policy for all residential property sales was to recognise revenue on percentage of completion method which is an allowed alternative method under Recommended Accounting practice 11 – Pre–Completion Contracts For The Sale Of Development Property (“RAp 11”). RAp 11 will be withdrawn with effect from 1 January 2011 following the adoption of INt FRS 115.

the Group has considered the application of INt FRS 115 and the accompanying practice note issued specifically in the context of the sale of development properties in Singapore, and concluded that whilst the “pre-completion” sale contracts were not, in substance, construction contracts, the legal terms in certain contracts results in the continuous transfer of work in progress to the purchaser. Consequently the Group will continue to adopt the percentage of completion method of revenue recognition for residential projects in Singapore under progressive payment scheme and hence for these contracts revenue is recognised as work progresses. For the residential projects in Singapore under the deferred payment scheme and overseas residential projects, the construction revenue and expenses will be accounted for under completion of construction method as stipulated in INt FRS 115, where applicable.

the estimated impact of this change in accounting policy is set out below:

Group2010

$’000

Increase in share of results (net of tax) of a jointly-controlled entity 119,431

Increase in profit attributable to owners of the Group 119,431

Increase/(decrease) in net assets –Increase in basic earnings per share (cents) 3.07Increase in diluted earnings per share (cents) 3.07

Revised FRS 24 Related Party Disclosures modifies the definition of a related party and simplifies disclosures for government–related entities. the Group does not expect any impact on its financial position or performance, however, disclosures regarding related party transactions and balances in these consolidated financial statements may be affected when the revised version of the Standard is applied in future accounting periods.

the initial application of these standards (and its consequential amendments) and interpretations is not expected to have material impact on the Group’s financial statements except for INt FRS 115 Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate. the Group has not considered the impact of accounting standards issued after the balance sheet date.
