NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments consisting only of normal recurring adjustments which are necessary for a fair presentation of financial results of such periods. As used herein, the terms “Group,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to Enson Assets Limited and its subsidiaries, unless the context indicates to the contrary.
Purpose of consolidated financial statements
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared for the special purpose of filing with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission in compliance with Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X and Form 8-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This filing requirement is based on the Company being a significant business acquired by Universal Electronics Inc. (“UEI”).
2. Principal Accounting Policies
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments, which are measured at fair values.
The accounting policies used in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those followed on the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the years ended March 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010, except for the adoption of new and revised International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) issued by the IASB which are effective for the Group for accounting periods beginning on or after April 1, 2010. The adoption of the new and revised IFRS had no material impact on the Group’s results and financial position for the current or prior periods.
The Group has not early applied new and revised standards, amendments or interpretations that have been issued but are not yet effective. The directors of the Company anticipate that, except for IFRS 9Financial Instruments, the application of other new and revised standards, amendments or interpretations will have no material impact on the results and the financial position of the Group.
IFRS 9Financial Instrumentsintroduces new requirements for the classification and measurement of financial assets and will be effective from 1 January 2013, with earlier application permitted. The standard requires all recognised financial assets that are within the scope of IAS 39Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurementto be measured at either amortised cost or fair value. Specifically, debt investments that (i) are held within a business model whose objective is to collect the contractual cash flows and (ii) have contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal outstanding are generally measured at amortised cost. All other debt investments and equity investments are measured at fair value. The application of IFRS 9 might affect the classification and measurement of the Group’s financial assets.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
TO THE DIRECTORS OF ENSON ASSETS LIMITED
(Incorporated in the British Virgin Islands with limited liability)
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of Enson Assets Limited (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) as of 31 March 2008, 2009 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, all expressed in Hong Kong dollars. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Group’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group as of 31 March 2008, 2009, and 2010, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

2. APPLICATION OF NEW AND REVISED INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS (“IFRSs”) — continued
IFRS 9 Financial Instruments introduces new requirements for the classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities and will be effective from 1 January 2013, with earlier application permitted. The Standard requires all recognised financial assets that are within the scope of IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement to be measured at either amortised cost or fair value. Specifically, debt investments that (i) are held within a business model whose objective is to collect the contractual cash flows and (ii) have contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal outstanding are generally measured at amortised cost. All other debt investments and equity investments are measured at fair value. The application of IFRS 9 might affect the classification and measurement of the Group’s financial assets.
In relation to financial liabilities, the significant change relates to financial liabilities that are designated as at fair value through profit or loss. Specifically, under IFRS 9, for financial liabilities that are designated as at fair value through profit or loss, the amount of change in the fair value of the financial liability that is attributable to changes in the credit risk of that liability is presented in other comprehensive income, unless the presentation of the effects of changes in the liability’s credit risk in other comprehensive income would create or enlarge an accounting mismatch in profit or loss. Changes in fair value attributable to a financial liability’s credit risk are not subsequently reclassified to profit or loss. Previously, under IAS 39, the entire amount of the change in the fair value of the financial liability designated as at fair value through profit or loss was presented in profit or loss.
The directors of the Company anticipate that the application of the other new and revised standards, amendments or interpretations will have no material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments, which are measured at fair values, as explained in the accounting policies set out below.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the following accounting policies which conform to IFRSs.
Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and entities controlled by the Company (its subsidiaries). Control is achieved where the Company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.
The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income from the effective date of acquisition and up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate.
Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with those used by other members of the Group.
All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated in full on consolidation.

3. | | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES — continued |
Revenue recognition
Revenue is measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for goods sold and service provided in the normal course of business, net of discount and sales related tax.
Revenue from sales of goods is recognised when goods are delivered, title has passed, there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.
Tooling income is recognised when services are provided and accepted by customers.
Interest income from a financial asset is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably.
Interest income from a financial asset is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset’s net carrying amount on initial recognition.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment including land and buildings held for use in the production are stated at cost less subsequent accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost of items of property, plant and equipment over their estimated useful lives and after taking into account of their estimated residual value, using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in profit or loss.
Leasehold land and buildings under development for future owner-occupied purpose
When the leasehold land and buildings are in the course of development for production or for administrative purposes, the leasehold land component is classified as a prepaid lease payment and amortised over a straight-line basis over the lease term. During the construction period, the amortisation charge provided for the leasehold land is included as part of costs of buildings under construction. Buildings under construction are carried at cost, less any identified impairment losses. Depreciation of buildings commences when they are available for use (i.e. when they are in the location and condition necessary for them to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management).

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES — continued
Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.
All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the year in which they are incurred.
Leasing
Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
The Group as lessee
Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, except where another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed. Contingent rentals arising under operating leases are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.
In the event that lease incentives are received to enter into operating leases, such incentives are recognised as a liability. The aggregate benefit of incentives is recognised as a reduction of rental expense on a straight-line basis, except where another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed.
Leasehold land and building
The land and building elements of a lease of land and building are considered separately for the purpose of lease classification, unless the lease payments cannot be allocated reliably between the land and building elements, in which case, the entire lease is generally treated as a finance lease and accounted for as property, plant and equipment. To the extent the allocation of the lease payments can be made reliably, leasehold interests in land are accounted for as operating leases and amortised over the lease term on a straight-line basis.
Foreign currencies
In preparing the financial statements of each individual group entity, transactions in currencies other than the functional currency of that entity (foreign currencies) are recorded in the respective functional currency (i.e. the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates) at the rates of exchanges prevailing on the dates of the transactions. At the end of the reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.

ENSON ASSETS LIMITED
3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES — continued
Foreign currencies — continued
Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items, and on the re-translation of monetary items, are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.
For the purposes of presenting the consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the Group’s foreign operations are translated into the presentation currency of the Group (i.e. Hong Kong dollars) at the rate of exchange prevailing at the end of the reporting period, and their income and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates for the year, unless exchange rates fluctuate significantly during the year, in which case, the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of transactions are used. Exchange differences arising, if any, are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity under the heading the translation reserve. Such exchange differences are reclassified to profit or loss in the period in which the foreign operation is disposed.
Research and development expenditure
Expenditure on research activities is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred.
Retirement benefits costs
Payments to the Group’s defined contribution retirement benefit plans, including Mandatory Provident Fund Scheme and state-managed retirement benefit schemes, are charged as an expense when employees have rendered services entitling them to the contributions.
Taxation
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit as reported in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income because it excludes items of income and expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable nor deductible. The Group’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary difference to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.

ENSON ASSETS LIMITED
3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES — continued
Taxation — continued
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries except where the Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilise the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of the reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset is realised, based on tax rate (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. Deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except when it relates to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the deferred tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.
Club debenture
Club debenture is related to a membership club for indefinite term. The balance is stated at cost, less any identified impairment losses.
Impairment loss on tangible and intangible assets
At the end of the reporting period, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of impairment loss, if any.
If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised as an expense immediately.
Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised as income immediately.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is calculated using the weighted average method.

ENSON ASSETS LIMITED
3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES — continued
Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position when a group entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”)) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets at FVTPL are recognised immediately in profit or loss.
Financial assets
The Group’s financial assets are classified into financial assets at FVTPL and loans and receivables. All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace. The accounting policies adopted in respect of each category of financial assets are set out below.
Effective interest method
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and of allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset, or, where appropriate, a shorter period to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.
Interest income is recognised on an effective interest basis for debt instruments other than those financial assets recognised as at FVTPL, of which interest income is included in net gains or losses.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
The Group’s financial assets at FVTPL are financial assets held for trading.
A financial asset is classified as held for trading if:
• | | it has been acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the near future; or |
|
• | | it is a part of an identified portfolio of financial instruments that the Group manages together and has a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking; or |
|
• | | it is a derivative that is not designated and effective as a hedging instrument. |
Financial assets at FVTPL are measured at fair value, with changes in fair value arising from remeasurements recognised directly in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Subsequent to initial recognition, loans and receivables (including trade receivables, other receivables, loan to a related company, amounts due from related companies, amount due from holding company, short term bank deposits and bank balances and cash) are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any identified impairment losses (see accounting policy on impairment of financial assets below).
Impairment of financial assets
Financial assets, other than those at FVTPL, are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of the reporting period. Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the financial assets have been affected.
For loans and receivables, objective evidence of impairment could include:
• | | significant financial difficulty of the issuer or counterparty; or |
|
• | | breach of contract, such as default or delinquency in interest or principal payments; or |
|
• | | it becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial re-organisation. |
For certain categories of financial asset, such as trade receivables, that are assessed not to be impaired individually are subsequently assessed for impairment on a collective basis. Objective evidence of impairment for a portfolio of receivables could include the Group’s past experience of collecting payments, an increase in the number of delayed payments in the portfolio past the average credit period, observable changes in economic conditions that correlate with default on receivables and the financial performance of the customers.
For financial assets carried at amortised cost, an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss when there is objective evidence that the asset is impaired, and is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate.
The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of trade receivables, where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognised in profit or loss. When a trade receivable is considered uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited to profit or loss.
For financial assets carried at amortised cost, if, in a subsequent period, the amount of impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment losses was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the asset at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortised cost would have been had the impairment not been recognised.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES — continued
Financial instruments — continued
Financial liabilities and equity
Financial liabilities and equity instruments issued by a group entity are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Group after deducting all of its liabilities. The Group’s financial liabilities are generally classified into financial liabilities at FVTPL and other financial liabilities. The accounting policies adopted in respect of financial liabilities and equity instruments are set out below.
Effective interest method
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant periods. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments through the expected life of the financial liability, or where appropriate, a shorter period to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.
Interest expense is recognised on an effective interest basis for debt instruments other than those financial liabilities classified as at FVTPL, of which interest expense is included in net gains or losses.
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
The Group’s financial liabilities at FVTPL are financial liabilities held for trading.
A financial liability is classified as held for trading if:
• | | it has been incurred principally for the purpose of repurchasing in the near future; or |
|
• | | it is a part of an identified portfolio of financial instruments that the Group manages together and has a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking; or |
|
• | | it is a derivative that is not designated and effective as a hedging instrument. |
Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value, with changes in fair value arising on remeasurement recognised directly in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.
Other financial liabilities
Other financial liabilities including trade payables, bills payable, amount due to a director, amount due to a related company and bank borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest method.
Equity instruments
Equity instruments issued by the Group are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

Financial instruments — continued
Derivative financial instruments
Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value at the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured to their fair value at the end of the reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately unless the derivative is designated and effective as a hedging instrument, in which event the timing of the recognition in profit or loss depends on the nature of the hedge relationship.
Derecognition
Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the assets expire or, the financial assets are transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial assets. On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity is recognised in profit or loss.
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the obligation specified in the relevant contract is discharged, cancelled or expires. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised in profit or loss.
4. KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY
In the application of the Group’s accounting policies, which are described in note 3, the directors of the Company are required to make estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
The following are the key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.
- 16 -
ENSON ASSETS LIMITED
4. KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY — continued
Allowance for trade receivables
An allowance for bad and doubtful debts is made when there is objective evidence of impairment. A considerable amount of judgment is required in assessing the ultimate realisation of these receivables including current creditworthiness and the past collection history of each customer. If the financial condition of customers of the Group was to deteriorate resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required. The Group’s carrying value of trade receivables as at 31 March 2008, 2009 and 2010 was HK$162,179,605, HK$152,490,658 and HK$195,529,853, respectively (net of allowance for bad and doubtful debts as at 31 March 2008, 2009 and 2010 of HK$10,704,550, HK$2,527,542 and HK$1,495,623, respectively).
Inventory valuation method and impairment
Inventory is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined using the weighted average method. Market price is generally the merchandise selling price quoted from the market of similar items. The Group reviews its inventory levels in order to identify slow-moving and obsolete inventories, where the Group identifies items of inventory having a market price lower than its carrying amount, the Group estimates the amount of inventory loss as allowance for slow-moving inventories. Where the estimated amount of allowance for slow-moving inventories are higher than expected, the Group could be required to change the recorded value of its inventories. The Group’s carrying value of inventory as at 31 March 2008, 2009 and 2010 was HK$127,880,885, HK$85,698,647 and HK$149,995,066, respectively.
Depreciation
The Group depreciates the property, plant and equipment over their estimated useful lives, using straight-line method, at the rates ranging from 4% to 331/3% per annum. The estimated useful lives that the Group depreciates the property, plant and equipment reflect the directors’ estimate of the periods that the Group intends to derive future economic benefits from the use of the assets. For any instance where this evaluation process indicates impairment, the appropriate asset’s carrying values are written down to the recoverable amount and the amount of the write-down is charged against the profit or loss. The Group’s carrying value of property, plant and equipment as at 31 March 2008, 2009 and 2010 was HK$317,905,419, HK$338,423,031 and HK$343,884,984, respectively.

Hong Kong Profits Tax was calculated at 17.5%, of the estimated assessable profit for the year ended 31 March 2008.
On 26 June 2008, the Hong Kong Legislative Council passed the Revenue Bill 2008 which reduced corporate profits tax rate from 17.5% to 16.5% effective from the year of assessment 2008/2009. Therefore, Hong Kong Profits Tax is calculated at 16.5% of the estimated assessable profit for the years ended 31 March 2009 and 2010. The deferred tax balance as at 1 April 2008 has been adjusted to reflect the tax rates that are expected to apply to the respective periods when the asset is realised or the liability is settled.
On 16 March 2007, the PRC promulgated the Law of the PRC on Enterprise Income Tax (the “New Law”) by Order No. 63 of the President of the PRC. On 6 December 2007, the State Council of the PRC issued Implementation Regulations of the New Law. The New Law and Implementation Regulations changed the tax rate from 33% to 25% for certain subsidiaries from 1 January 2008. The deferred tax balance as at 31 March 2008 has been adjusted to reflect the tax rates that are expected to apply to the respective periods when the asset is realised or the liability is settled.
Gemstar Technology (Yangzhou) Co. Ltd. (“GTY”) is a wholly foreign invested entity of manufacturing nature. In accordance with Foreign Enterprise Income Tax (“FEIT”) Laws in PRC, GTY was approved to be exempted from FEIT for two years starting from its first profit making year since its establishment and followed by a 50% tax relief for the next three years. GTY first profit making year was 2007. GTY is therefore exempted from FEIT for the year ended 31 March 2008 and from 1 April 2008 to 31 December 2008 and subject to a reduced tax rate of 12.5% from 1 January 2009 to 31 March 2010.

The Group currently does not have a foreign currency hedging policy. However, the management monitors foreign exchange exposure by closely monitoring the movement of the relevant foreign currency rates and will enter into foreign currency options or forward contracts, when and where appropriate.
Sensitivity analysis
As HK$ is pegged against the USD under the linked exchange rate system, the Group’s exposure to HK$ exchange rate risk is minimal. The Group is mainly exposed to the fluctuations in JPY, Euro and RMB against USD.
The following table details the Group’s sensitivity to a 5% increase and decrease in functional currency of the respective group entity against the relevant foreign currencies. 5% is the sensitivity rate used when reporting foreign currency risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in foreign exchange rates. The sensitivity analysis includes outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items and adjusts their translation at the end of the reporting period for a 5% change in foreign currency rates at the end of each reporting period. A positive number below indicates an increase in profit when the USD strengthen 5% against the relevant currencies. For a 5% weakening of the USD against the relevant currencies, there would be an equal and opposite impact on the post-tax profit.

The Group has outstanding forward foreign exchange contracts entered into to buy/sell a specified notional amount of USD/RMB at a specified exchange rate. If the foreign exchange rate of the respective forward foreign exchange contracts had been higher/lower by 2% at the end of each reporting period and all other variables were held constant, the Group’s post-tax profit for the three years ended 31 March 2008, 2009 and 2010 would increase/decrease by approximately HK$15,310, HK$732,693 and HK$34,211, respectively.
Cash flow interest rate risk
The Group is exposed to cash flow interest rate risk in relation to the variable-rate loan to a related company, variable-rate bank deposits and bank borrowings (see note 18, 21 and 25 for details).
The Group’s exposure to interest rates on financial liabilities are detailed in the liquidity risk management section of this note. The Group’s cash flow interest rate risk is mainly concentrated on the fluctuation of HIBOR arising from the bank borrowings.
Sensitivity analysis
The sensitivity analysis below have been determined based on the exposure to interest rates for loan to a related company and variable-rate bank borrowings at the end of the reporting period. No sensitivity is presented for variable-rate bank deposits and bank balances as the impact are insignificant. For variable-rate loan to a related company and bank borrowings, the analysis is prepared assuming the relevant amount outstanding at the end of reporting period was outstanding for the whole year. A 50 basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates.
If interest rates had been 50 basis points higher/lower and all other variables were held constant, the Group’s post-tax profit for the three years ended 31 March 2008, 2009 and 2010 would decrease/increase by approximately HK$385,196, HK$110,226 and HK$309,664, respectively.

Credit risk
The Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk in the event of the counterparties failure to perform their obligations as at 31 March 2008, 2009 and 2010 in relation to each class of recognised financial assets is the carrying amount of those assets as stated in the consolidated statement of financial position. In order to minimise the credit risk, the management of the Group has delegated a team responsible for determination of credit limits, credit approvals and other monitoring procedures to ensure that follow-up action is taken to recover overdue debts. In addition, the Group reviews the recoverable amount of each individual debt at each of the reporting period to ensure that adequate impairment losses are made for irrecoverable amounts. In this regard, the directors of the Company consider that the Group’s credit risk is significantly reduced.
The credit risk for bank deposits and bank balances exposed is considered minimal as such amounts are placed with banks with good credit ratings.
The Group has concentration of credit risk on the Group’s trade receivables as the Group does not have large numbers of customers. The Group are concentrated in one industry sectors, namely the sales of remote control units. The outstanding balance of the five largest customers which are international well known companies and also engaged in the business of sales of electronic products, represented approximately 61.2%, 88.9% and 83.7% of the trade receivables of the Group as at 31 March 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively.
In order to minimise the credit risk, management continuously monitors the level of exposure to ensure that follow-up actions and/or corrective actions are taken promptly to lower the risk exposure or to recover overdue balances.
Other than concentration of credit risk on liquid funds which are deposited with several banks with high credit ratings, amounts due from related companies which are with several of the Group’s related companies, and loan to a related company, and save as disclosed elsewhere in the consolidated financial statements, the Group does not have any other significant concentration of credit risk.

Liquidity risk
In the management of the liquidity risk, the Group monitors and maintains a level of cash and cash equivalents deemed adequate by the management to finance the Group’s operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuation in cash flows.
The following table details the Group’s remaining contractual maturity for its financial liabilities based on the agreed repayment terms. The table has been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Group can be required to pay. The table includes both interest and principal cash flows. To the extent that interest flows are floating rate, the undiscounted amount is derived from interest rate curve at the end of the reporting periods.

The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities are determined as follows:
• | | the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities (excluding derivative instruments) are determined in accordance with generally accepted pricing models based on discounted cash flow analysis. |
• | | The fair value of foreign currency forward contracts is estimated using quoted forward exchange rates and yield curves derived from quoted interest rates matching maturities of the contracts. |
The directors consider that the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded at amortised cost in the consolidated financial statements approximate to their fair values.

Fair value measurements recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position
The following table provides an analysis of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value, grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value is observable.
• | | Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active market for identical assets or liabilities. |
• | | Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from 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 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). |
The Group’s financial assets at FVTPL and financial liabilities at FVTPL consist of foreign currency forward contracts and are categorized into Level 2. There has been no transfer between Level 1 and Level 2 of the financial instruments at FVTPL throughout the years ended 31 March 2008, 2009 and 2010 and the details are as follows:

Operating lease payments represented rentals payable by the Group for certain of its office properties. Leases negotiated for one to two years and rental was fixed during the lease term.
32. PROVIDENT FUND SCHEMES
The Group has retirement schemes covering a substantial portion of its employees in Hong Kong. The principal schemes are defined contribution schemes. The assets of these schemes are held separately from those of the Group in funds under the control of independent trustees.
With effect from 1 December 2000, the Group joined a Mandatory Provident Fund Scheme (“MPF Scheme”) for all its new employees in Hong Kong employed therefrom or existing employees wishing to join the MPF Scheme. The MPF Scheme is registered with the Mandatory Provident Fund Scheme Authority under the Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes Ordinance. The assets of the MPF Scheme are held separately from those of the Group in funds under the control of an independent trustee. Under the rules of the MPF Scheme, the employer and its employees are required to make contributions to the MPF Scheme at 5% of relevant payroll cost or at maximum HK$1,000. The only obligation of the Group in respect of MPF Scheme is to make the required contributions under the MPF Scheme.
The employees of the Group’s subsidiaries in the PRC participated in the state-managed retirement benefit scheme operated by the government of the PRC. The subsidiaries are required to contribute certain percentage of their payroll costs to the retirement benefit scheme to fund the benefits. The obligation of the Group with respect to the retirement benefit scheme is to make the specified contributions.
For the year ended 31 March 2008, 2009 and 2010, the amounts charged to profit or loss represent contributions paid or payable to schemes by the Group of approximately HK$17,712,000, HK$14,913,000 and HK$16,473,000, respectively.
At 31 March 2008, 2009 and 2010, the Group does not have any forfeited contributions, which arose upon employees leaving the retirement benefit schemes and which are available to reduce the contributions payable in future years.
