APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

II	NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL INFORMATION
1	General information, reorganisation and basis of preparation
(a)	General information

     Meadville Holdings Limited (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Group”) are principally engaged in the manufacturing and distribution of printed circuit boards (the “PCB Business”) and prepreg and laminate (the “Laminate Business”).

     The Company was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on 28 August 2006 as an exempted company with limited liability under the Companies Law (2004 Revision) of the Cayman Islands. The address of its registered office is Clifton House, 75 Fort Street, P.O. Box 1350 GT, George Town, Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands.

     The Company’s shares were listed on the Main Board of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (“Stock Exchange”) on 2 February 2007 (“Listing”).

     This Financial Information are presented in units of Hong Kong dollars (“HK$”), unless otherwise stated.

(b) Reorganisation

     Before completion of the reorganisation, the PCB Business and Laminate Business was carried out by Photomask (HK) Limited (formerly known as Meadville Technologies Group Limited) (“PHKL”), the former holding company, and all its subsidiaries except for Qingyi Precision Maskmaking (Shenzhen) Ltd. (“SQM”). SQM was engaged in the research, design and manufacturing of photomasks (the “Photomask Business”).

     For the preparation of the listing of shares of the Company on the Stock Exchange, the following reorganisation (the “Reorganisation”) was carried out to transfer the PCB Business and Laminate Business and its related assets to the Company by way of the following steps:

• MTG Investment (BVI) Limited (“MTG(INV)”) was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands on 23 August 2006 by Mr. Tang Hsiang Chien, a shareholder of MTG(INV). Pursuant to an agreement dated 30 December 2006 entered into between MTG(INV) and PHKL, MTG(INV) acquired the equity interests in the subsidiaries of PHKL engaged in the PCB Business and Laminate Business (including their holding companies) and certain assets and liabilities in relation to the PCB Business and Laminate Business of PHKL for a total consideration of approximately HK$1,219 million, which was satisfied partly by payment of cash of HK$700 million and partly by issue of 99,999 shares in MTG(INV). As a result of the transfer, PHKL ceased its operation in the PCB Business and Laminate Business and only conducted the Photomask Business thereafter.

-VI-18-

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

• Pursuant to an agreement dated 30 December 2006, the Company acquired the entire issued capital of MTG(INV) through a share swap, and the Company became the holding company of the companies now comprising the Group. Details of the Company’s interests in its subsidiaries and associated companies are set out in Note 20 and Note 19 respectively.

     The Reorganisation involved companies under common control, and the Group resulting from the Reorganisation is regarded as a continuing group. Accordingly, the Reorganisation has been accounted for on the basis of merger accounting, under which the consolidated financial statements have been prepared as if the Company had been the holding company of the subsidiaries comprising the Group throughout the year ended 31 December 2006, rather than from the date on which the Reorganisation was completed. The comparative figures as at 1 January 2006 have been presented on the same basis.

     As a result of the Reorganisation, all the PCB Business and Laminate Business were transferred to the Company and its subsidiaries now comprising the Group effective 30 December 2006. After the Reorganisation, the PCB Business and Laminate Business were carried out by the Group.

-VI-19-

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

(c) Basis of preparation

     The Financial Information of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (“HKFRSs”) issued by the HKICPA. They have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of available-for-sale financial asset and financial assets and financial liabilities (including derivative instruments) at fair value through profit or loss.

     The preparation of the Financial Information in conformity with HKFRSs requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the Financial Information, are disclosed in Note 4.

(i) The following new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations are mandatory for the first time for the financial year beginning 1 January 2009:

		Effective for
		accounting
		periods
		beginning
		on or after
HKAS 1 (Revised)	Presentation of financial statements	1 January 2009
HKAS 23 (Revised)	Borrowing costs	1 January 2009
HKAS 32 and HKAS 1 (Amendments)	Puttable financial instruments and obligations arising on liquidation	1 January 2009
HKFRS 1 and HKAS 27 (Amendments)	Cost of an investment in a subsidiary, jointly controlled entity or associate	1 January 2009
HKFRS 2 (Amendment)	Share-based payment — Vesting conditions and cancellations	1 January 2009
HKFRS 7 (Amendments)	Financial instruments: Disclosures	1 January 2009

HK(IFRIC) — Int 15	Agreements for construction of real estates	1 January 2009
HK(IFRIC) — Int 16	Hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation	1 October 2008

HK(IFRIC) — Int 18 “Transfer of assets from customers” is effective to transfers of assets from customers received on or after 1 July 2009.

The adoption of the above new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations has no significant impact on the results and financial position of the Group.

-VI-20-

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

	In addition, HKICPA also published a number of amendments for the existing standards under its annual improvement project. These amendments are also not expected to have a significant financial impact on the results and financial position of the Group.
(ii)	The following new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations have been issued but are not effective for the period beginning on 1 January 2009 and are relevant to the Group’s operations and have not been early adopted:

		Effective for
		accounting

HKAS 27 (Revised)	Consolidated and separate financial statements	1 July 2009
HKAS 39 (Amendment)	Eligible hedged items	1 July 2009

HK(IFRIC) — Int 17	Distributions of non-cash assets to owners	1 July 2009

Whether the adoption of HKFRS 3 (Revised) and HKAS 27 (Revised) has any material impact on the results and financial position of the Group will depend on the incidence and timing of business combinations occurring on or after 1 January 2010. The directors are not yet in a position to state whether any substantial changes to the financial statements will be resulted from adopting HKFRS 9. The directors anticipate that the adoption of other new standards, amendments and interpretations to standards will not result in a significant impact on the results and financial position of the Group.

-VI-21-

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

(iii) The following new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations have been issued but are not effective for the period beginning on 1 January 2009 and are not relevant to the Group’s operations and have not been early adopted:

		Effective for

The directors anticipate that the adoption of the above amendments to HKFRS mentioned in Note 1(c) (iii), (iv) and (v) will not result in a significant impact on the results and financial position of the Group.

2	Summary of significant accounting policies
(a)	Merger accounting for common control combinations

     The Financial Information incorporates the financial statements of the combining entities or businesses in which the common control combination occurs as if they had been combined from the date when the combining entities or businesses first came under the control of the controlling party.

-VI-23-

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

     The net assets of the combining entities or businesses are combined using the existing book values from the controlling parties’ perspective. No amount is recognised in respect of goodwill or excess of acquirers’ interest in the net fair value of acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over cost at the time of common control combination, to the extent of the continuation of the controlling party’s interest.

     The consolidated income statement includes the results of the combining entities or businesses from the earliest date presented or since the date when the combining entities first came under the common control, where this is a shorter period, regardless of the date of the common control combination.

     A uniform set of accounting policies is adopted by those entities. All intra-group transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between combining entities or businesses are eliminated on consolidation.

(b) Consolidation

(i) Subsidiaries

     Subsidiaries are all entities (including special purpose entities) over which the Group has power to govern the financial and operating policies generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one half of the voting rights. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Group controls another entity.

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

     Except for the Reorganisation which has been accounted for as a combination of entities or businesses under common control using merger accounting as explained in Note 1(b), the purchase method of accounting is used to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries by the Group. The cost of an acquisition is 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. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any minority interests. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the Group’s share of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognised directly in the consolidated income statement.

     Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary in the consolidated financial statements to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

-VI-24-

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

     In the Company’s statement of financial position the investments in subsidiaries are stated at cost less provision for impairment losses. The results of subsidiaries are accounted for by the Company on the basis of dividend received and receivable.

(ii) Transactions with minority interests

     The Group applies a policy of treating transactions with minority interests as transactions with parties external to the Group. Disposals to minority interests result in gains and losses for the Group that are recorded in the consolidated income statement. Purchases from minority interests result in goodwill, being the difference between any consideration paid and the relevant share acquired of the carrying value of net assets of the subsidiary.

(iii) Associated companies

     Associated companies are all entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control, generally accompanying a shareholding of between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. Interests in associated companies are accounted for using the equity method of accounting and are initially recognised at cost. The Group’s interests in associated companies include goodwill identified on acquisition, net of any accumulated impairment loss.

     The Group’s share of its associated companies’ post-acquisition profits or losses is recognised in the consolidated income statement, and its share of post-acquisition movements in reserves is recognised in reserves. The cumulative post-acquisition movements are adjusted against the carrying amount of the investment. When the Group’s share of losses in an associated company equals or exceeds its interest in the associated company, including any other unsecured receivables, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the associated company.

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

(c) Segment reporting

     Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker. The chief operating decision-maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the management that makes strategic decisions.

(d) Property, plant and equipment

     Property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.

-VI-25-

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

     Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged in the consolidated income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred.

     Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost to their residual values over their estimated useful lives, which are summarised as follows:

Buildings	22 - 25 years
Leasehold improvements	22 - 25 years
Furniture and equipment	5 - 6 years
Plant, machinery and equipment	10 - 12 years
Motor vehicles	5 - 6 years

     The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.

     Construction in progress represents buildings or leasehold improvements on which construction work has not been completed and plant, machinery and equipment pending installation. It is carried at cost which includes construction expenditures and other direct costs less any impairment losses. On completion, construction in progress is transferred to the appropriate categories of property, plant and equipment at cost less accumulated impairment losses. No depreciation is provided for construction in progress until they are completed and available for use.

     An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.

     Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount and are charged to the consolidated income statement.

(e) Intangible assets

(i) Goodwill

     Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the Group’s share of the net identifiable assets of the acquired subsidiary and associated company at the date of acquisition. Goodwill on acquisitions of subsidiaries is included in intangible assets. Goodwill on acquisitions of associated companies is included in interests in associated companies. Goodwill is tested for impairment and carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold. Impairment losses on goodwill are not reversed.

-VI-26-

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

     Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units (“CGUs”) for the purpose of impairment testing. The allocation is made to those CGUs or groups of CGUs that are expected to benefit from the business combination in which the goodwill arose.

(ii) Technologies fee

     The technologies fee is shown at historical cost. The technologies fee has a definite useful life and is carried at cost less accumulated amortisation. Amortisation is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate the cost of technologies fee over its estimated useful life of 10 years.

(iii) Customer relationship

     Customer relationship represents the fair value attributable to customer base or existing contractual bids with customers taken over as a result of business combination. Amortisation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estismated useful life of 10 years.

(f) Trade and other receivables

     Trade and other receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for impairment of trade and other receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of receivables. The amount of the provision is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the assets is reduced through the use of an allowance account, and the amount of the loss is recognised in the consolidated income statement within selling and distribution expenses. When a receivable is uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account for receivables. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against selling and distribution expenses in the consolidated income statement.

(g) Impairment of non-financial assets

     Non-financial assets that have an indefinite useful life or have not yet available for use are not subject to amortisation, which are at least tested annually for impairment and are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Assets that are subject to amortisation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount.

     The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (CGUs). Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date.

-VI-27-

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

(h) Available-for-sale financial assets

     Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets. They are included in non-current assets unless management intends to dispose of the investment within twelve months of the statement of financial position. Available-for-sale financial assets are stated initially at fair value plus transaction costs and subsequently carried at fair value.

     Changes in fair value of monetary securities denominated in a foreign currency and classified as available-for-sale are analysed between translation differences resulting from changes in amortised costs of the security and other changes in the carrying amount of the security. Changes in the fair value of monetary and non-monetary securities classified as available-for-sale are recognised in equity.

     Interest on available-for-sale securities calculated using the effective interest method is recognised in the consolidated income statement. Dividends on available-for-sale equity instruments are recognised in the consolidated income statement when the Group’s right to receive payments is established.

     If the market for a financial asset is not active (and for unlisted securities), the Group established fair value by using valuation techniques. These include the use of recent arm’s length transactions, reference to other instruments that are substantially the same, discounted cash flow analysis and option pricing models, making maximum use of market inputs and relying as little as possible on entity-specific inputs.

     The Group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. In the case of equity securities classified as available-for-sale, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is considered as an indicator that the securities are impaired. If any such evidence exists for available-for-sale financial asset, the cumulative loss — measured as the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in profit or loss — is removed from equity and recognised in the consolidated income statement. Impairment losses recognised in the consolidated income statement on equity instruments are not reversed through the consolidated income statement.

(i) Inventories

     Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost, calculated on the weighted average basis, comprises materials, direct labour, other direct costs and related production overheads (based on normal operating capacity). Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less applicable variable selling expenses.

(j) Operating leases

     Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are expensed in the consolidated income statement on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

-VI-28-

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

(k) Borrowings

     Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at amortised cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in the consolidated income statement over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.

     Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition and construction of any qualifying asset are capitalised during the period of time that is required to complete and prepare the asset for its intended use. Borrowing costs capitalised are either the actual costs incurred on a specific borrowing or an amount calculated using the weighted average method, considering all borrowing costs incurred on general borrowings outstanding. Other borrowing costs are expensed.

     Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the end of each reporting period.

(l) Derivative financial instruments and hedging activities

     Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured at their fair value. The method of recognising the resulting gain or loss depends on whether the derivative is designed as a hedging instrument, and if so, the nature of the item being hedged. The Group designates certain derivatives as either: (i) hedges of the fair value of recognised assets or liabilities or a firm commitment (fair value hedge) or (ii) hedges of highly probable forecast transactions (cash flow hedges).

     The Group documents at the inception of the transaction the relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objectives and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. The Group also documents its assessment, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of hedged items.

(i) Fair value hedge

     Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges are recorded in the consolidated income statement, together with any changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk.

     If the hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the adjustment to the carrying amount of a hedged item for which the effective interest method is used is amortised through the consolidated income statement over the period to maturity.

-VI-29-

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

(ii) Cash flow hedge

     The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges are recognised in hedging reserve. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the consolidated income statement.

     Amounts accumulated in hedging reserve are recognised in the consolidated income statement in the periods when the hedged item affects profit or loss. However, when the forecast transaction that is hedged results in the recognition of a non-financial asset (for example, property, plant and equipment), the gains and losses previously deferred in hedging reserve are transferred from hedging reserve and included in the initial measurement of the cost of the asset. The deferred amounts are ultimately recognised as depreciation in case of property, plant and equipment.

     When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, or when a hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, any cumulative gain or loss existing in hedging reserve at that time remains in hedging reserve and is recognised when the forecast transaction is ultimately recognised in the consolidated income statement. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was reported in hedging reserve is immediately transferred to the consolidated income statement.

     Certain derivative instruments do not qualify for hedge accounting. Changes in the fair value of these derivative instruments are recognised immediately in the consolidated income statement.

(m) Current and deferred income tax

     The tax expense for the year/period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the consolidated income statement.

     The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantially enacted at the end of each reporting period in the countries where the Company and its subsidiaries and associated companies operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.

     Deferred income tax is recognised, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. However, the deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination and at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the end of reporting period and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled.

-VI-30-

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

     Deferred income tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised.

     Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries and associated companies, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Group and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

(n) Cash and cash equivalents

     Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position.

(o) Trade payables

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

(p) Provisions

     Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events; it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation; and the amount has been reliably estimated.

     Restructuring provisions comprise lease termination penalties and employee termination payments. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.

     Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognised even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small.

     Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation. The increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognised as interest expense.

(q) Employee benefits

(i) Employee leave entitlements

     Employee entitlements to annual and long service leaves are recognised when they accrue to employees. Provisions are made for the estimated liability for annual leave and long service leave as a result of services rendered by employees up to the end of each reporting period.

-VI-31-

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

(ii) Retirement benefits

     The Group pays contributions to separate trustee-administered funds on a mandatory basis. The Group has no further payment obligation once the contributions have been paid. The contributions are recognised as employee benefit expense when they are due and are not reduced by contributions forfeited by those employees who leave the scheme prior to vesting fully in the contribution.

     The Group’s employees in mainland China are covered by various government sponsored pension plans. These government agencies are responsible for the pension liabilities to these employees. The relevant group companies pay monthly contributions to these pension plans based on certain percentages of the salaries, subject to a certain ceiling. Under these plans, the Group has no legal or constructive obligation to make further payments once the required contributions have been paid. Contributions to these plans are expensed as incurred.

     The Group’s overseas employees are entitled to participate in a number of defined contribution pension schemes, the assets of which are generally held in separate trustee-administered funds. The pension schemes are generally funded by payments from employees and by the relevant group companies.

(iii) Bonus plans

     Provisions for bonus plan due wholly within twelve months after the end of each reporting period are recognised where contractually obliged or where there is a past practice that has created a constructive obligation.

(iv) Share-based compensation

     For shares granted to the employees, the fair value of the employee services received in exchange for the grant of the shares is recognised as an expense. The total amount to be expensed over the vesting period is determined by reference to the fair value of the shares granted. At the end of each reporting period, the Group revises its estimates of the number of shares that are expected to vest. It recognises the impact of the revision of original estimates, if any, in the consolidated income statement, with a corresponding adjustment to equity.

(v) Other benefits

     The Group’s employees in mainland China are also entitled to participate in various government sponsored medical insurance plan and housing funds. The relevant group companies pay monthly contributions to these funds based on certain percentages of the salaries. The Group’s liability in respect of these funds is limited to the contributions paid. Contributions to these plans are expensed as incurred.

-VI-32-

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

(r) Government grants

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

     Government grants relating to costs are deferred and recognised in the consolidated income statement over the period necessary to match them with the costs that they are intended to compensate.

     Government grants relating to the purchase of property, plant and equipment are included in non-current liabilities as deferred government grants and are credited to the consolidated income statement on a straight line basis over the expected lives of the related assets.

(s) Share capital

     Shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the net proceeds.

     Where any group company purchases the Company’s equity share capital, the consideration paid, including any directly attributable incremental costs (net of income taxes) is deducted from equity attributable to the Company’s equity holders until the shares are cancelled or reissued. Where such shares are subsequently reissued, any consideration received, net of any directly attributable incremental transaction costs and the related income tax effects, is included in equity attributable to the Company’s equity holders.

(t) Financial liabilities—put option

     Financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The accretion of the discount on the financial liability should be recognised as finance costs in the consolidated income statement. Adjustments to the liability for the contingent consideration other than accretion of discount are recognised against goodwill including revision of cash flow estimates.

(u) Revenue recognition

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

     Sales of goods are recognised when a group entity has delivered products to the customer, the customer has accepted the products and collectability of related receivables is reasonably assured.

     Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive payment is established.

-VI-33-

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

(v)	Interest income
	Interest income is recognised on a time proportion basis, using the effective interest method.

(w) Foreign currency translation

(i) Functional and presentation currency

     Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (“the functional currency”). The consolidated financial statements are presented in HK$ which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency.

(ii) Transactions and balances

     Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions or valuation where items are remeasured. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the consolidated income statement except when deferred in equity as qualifying cash flow hedges.

     Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings and cash and cash equivalents are presented in the consolidated income statement within interest income or finance cost. All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in the consolidated income statement within general and administrative expenses.

     Changes in the fair value of monetary securities denominated in foreign currency classified as available-for-sale are analysed between translation differences resulting from changes in the amortised cost of the security, and other changes in the carrying amount of the security. Translation differences related to changes in the amortised cost are recognised in profit or loss, and other changes in the carrying amount are recognised in equity.

     Translation differences on non-monetary financial assets and liabilities such as equities held at fair value through profit or loss are reported as part of the fair value gain or loss. Translation differences on non-monetary financial assets such as equities classified as available-for-sale are included in the available-for-sale reserve in equity.

(iii) Group companies

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

• assets and liabilities for each statement of financial position presented are translated at the closing rate at the end of reporting period;

-VI-34-

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

• income and expenses for each income statement are translated at average exchange rates (unless this average is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the dates of the transactions); and

• all resulting exchange differences are recognised as a separate component of equity.

     On consolidation, exchange differences arising from the translation of the net investment in foreign entities, and of borrowings and other currency instruments designated as hedges of such investments, are taken to owners’ equity. When a foreign operation is partially disposed of or sold, such exchange differences that were recorded in equity are recognised in the consolidated income statement as part of the gain or loss on sale.

     Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the closing rate.

(x) Dividend distribution

     Dividend distribution to the Company’s shareholders is recognised as a liability in the Group’s financial statements in the period in which the dividends are approved by the Company’s shareholders or directors, where appropriate.

3	Financial risk management
(a)	Financial risk factors

     The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: foreign exchange risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and cash flow and fair value interest-rate risk. The Group’s overall risk management programme focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Group’s financial performance. The Group uses derivative financial instruments to hedge certain risk exposures.

(i) Foreign exchange risk

     The Group operates principally in Hong Kong and mainland China and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures, primarily with respect to the US Dollar (“US$”) and Renminbi (“RMB”). Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions, recognised assets and liabilities and net investments in foreign operations. The Group attempts to minimise its foreign exchange risk exposure through payment of operating costs and maintenance of borrowings at a balanced mix of major currencies.

     In addition, the conversion of RMB into foreign currencies is subject to the rules and regulations of the foreign exchange controls promulgated by the Chinese government.

-VI-35-

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

     The Group has certain investments in foreign operations, whose net assets are exposed to foreign currency translation risk. Currency exposure arising from the net assets of the Group’s foreign operations is managed primarily through borrowings denominated in the relevant foreign currencies.

     If RMB had weakened/strengthened by 3.5%, 5.0%, 4.0% and 0.1% against the HK$ with all other variables held constant, post-tax profit for the year/period would have been HK$9,143,000, HK$24,451,000, HK$16,804,000 and HK$100,000 higher/lower respectively for the years ended 31 December 2006, 2007 and 2008 and nine months ended 30 September 2009 respectively, mainly as a result of foreign exchange losses/gains on translation of RMB-denominated trade receivables and foreign exchange gains/losses on translation of RMB-denominated trade payables and borrowings.

     If US$ had weakened/strengthened by 0.2%, 0.4%, 0.7% and 0.1% against the HK$ with all other variables held constant, post-tax profit for the year/period would have been HK$572,000, HK$2,653,000, HK$13,460,000 and HK$1,942,000 higher/lower respectively for the years ended 31 December 2006, 2007 and 2008 and nine months ended 30 September 2009, mainly as a result of foreign exchange losses/gains on translation of US$-denominated trade receivables and foreign exchange gains/losses on translation of US$-denominated trade payables and borrowings. There is no significant impact on equity for the years ended 31 December 2006, 2007, 2008 and for the period ended 30 September 2009.

(ii) Credit risk

     The credit risk of the Group mainly arises from cash and cash equivalents and debtors. The carrying amounts of these balances represent the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk in relation to financial assets. At 31 December 2006, 2007 and 2008 and 30 September 2009, all the bank deposits are deposited in high quality financial institutions without significant credit risk.

-VI-36-

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

     The table below shows the bank deposit balances of the five major banks at 31 December 2006, 2007, 2008 and 30 September 2009. Management does not expect any losses from non-performance by these banks. The Group has no policy to limit the amount of credit exposure to any financial institution.

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

     In order to minimise the credit risk to debtors, the Group has delegated a credit control team to be 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 trade debt at the end of each reporting period to ensure that adequate impairment losses are made for irrecoverable amounts.

     As at 31 December 2006, 2007, 2008 and 30 September 2009, the credit quality of financial assets which include bank balances and debtors are neither past due nor impaired by making reference to the counterparty’s default history. The trade debtors have no history of default in recent years.

(iii) Liquidity risk

     Cash flow forecasting is performed in the operating entities of the Group and aggregated by Group finance. Group finance monitors rolling forecast of the Group’s liquidity requirements to ensure it has sufficient cash to meet operational needs while maintaining sufficient headroom on its undrawn committed borrowing facilities at all times so that the Group does not breach borrowing limits or covenants on any of its borrowing facilities. Such forecasting takes into consideration the Group’s debt financing plans, covenant compliance and external regulatory or legal requirements, for example, currency restrictions.

     Surplus cash held by the operating entities over and above balance required for working capital management are transferred to the Group’s treasury. Group treasury invests surplus cash in interest bearing current accounts and time deposits to provide sufficient headroom as determined by the above-mentioned forecasts. The table below analyses the Group’s financial assets held at 30 September 2009 for managing liquidity risk.

(iv) Cash flow and fair value interest-rate risk

     The Group’s interest-rate risk mainly arises from borrowings. Borrowings issued at variable rates expose the Group to cash flow interest-rate risk. Other than borrowings, the Group has no significant interest-bearing assets and liabilities. Accordingly, the Group’s income and operating cash flows, other than finance costs, are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates.

     The Group aims to maintain a suitable mixture of fixed rate and floating rate borrowings in order to stabilise interest costs despite rate movements. Interest rate hedging ratio is determined after taking into consideration of general market trend, the Group’s cash flow patterns and interest coverage ratio. The Group uses interest rate swaps to hedge exposures or to modify the interest rate characteristics of its borrowings. At 31 December 2008 and 30 September 2009, the Group has interest rate swap contracts to hedge certain of the Group’s borrowings amounting to US$100 million with fixed interest rates.

     The Group analyses its interest rate exposure on a dynamic basis. Various scenarios are simulated taking into consideration refinancing, renewal of existing positions and alternative financing. Based on these scenarios, the Group calculates the impact on income statement of a defined interest rate shift. For each simulation, the same interest rate shift is used for all currencies. The scenarios are run only for liabilities that represent the major interest-bearing positions.

-VI-41-

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

     Based on the simulations performed, the impact on income statement of a 10 basis-point shift would be a maximum increase of HK$1,775,000, HK$2,699,000, HK$2,895,000 and HK$2,137,000 or decrease of HK$1,775,000, HK$2,699,000, HK$2,895,000 and HK$2,137,000, for the years ended 31 December 2006, 2007 and 2008 and nine months period ended 30 September 2009 respectively.

(b) Capital risk management

     The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.

     In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group will monitor the operating cash flow generated from operations and available banking facilities to match its capital expenditures and dividend outflow payments.

     The Group monitors capital on the basis of the gearing ratio. This ratio is calculated as net debt divided by total capital. Net debt is calculated as total borrowings less cash and bank balances. Total capital is calculated as “equity”, as shown in the consolidated statements of financial position.

     The Group’s strategy was to maintain a solid capital base to support the operations and development of its business in the long term. Management considers a gearing ratio of not more than 100% as solid and reasonable. The table below analyses the Group’s capital structure at 31 December 2006, 2007, 2008 and 30 September 2009:

										At
	At 31 December									30 September
	2006			2007			2008			2009
	HK$’000			HK$’000			HK$’000			HK$’000
Total borrowings		1,775,307			2,699,174			3,635,635			3,600,673
Less: cash and bank balances(Note 25)		(211,150	)		(418,192	)		(889,773	)		(951,865	)
Net debt		1,564,157			2,280,982			2,745,862			2,648,808
Total capital		937,727			2,822,806			3,203,939			3,477,114
Gearing ratio		167	%		81	%		86	%		76	%

     The increase in net debt during 2007 resulted primarily from the acquisition of 80% of the issued share capital of Aspocomp Asia Limited and its subsidiaries in November 2007.

-VI-42-

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

     The increase in net debt during 2008 resulted primarily from the increase in borrowings to finance the purchases of property, plant and equipment.

     The decrease in net debt during 2009 resulted primarily from the decrease in borrowings through repayment.

(c) Fair value estimation

     Effective 1 January 2009, the Group adopted the amendment to HKFRS 7 for financial instruments that are measured in the statement of financial position at fair value, this requires disclosure of fair value measurements by level of the following fair value measurement hierarchy:

• Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1).

• Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices) (level 2).

• Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs) (level 3).

     The following table presents the Group’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value at the end of the reporting period.

	At 30 September
	2009
	HK$’000
Assets
Level 2
— Derivative financial instruments		22,796
Level 3
— Available-for-sale financial asset		17,714
Total assets		40,510
Liabilities
Level 2
— Derivative financial instruments		15,967

     The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined by using valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximise the use of observable market data where it is available and rely as little as possible on entity specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2.

-VI-43-

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

     If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data. The instrument is included in level 3.

     Specific valuation techniques used to value financial instruments include:

(i)	The fair value of interest rate swaps is calculated as the present value of the estimated future cash flows based on observable yield curve.
(ii)	The fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts is determined using forward exchange rates at the end of reporting period, with the resulting value discounted back to present value.
(iii)	Enterprise value calculation method is used to determine the fair value for the available-for-sale financial asset which use an average of the latest two years’ earnings before interest, tax and depreciation and amortisation (“EBITDA”) extracted from the latest unaudited financial results of the security and an enterprise value multiplier of 5.5 times. The enterprise value multiplier used is within the range of the multiplier of similar companies within the same industry.

4 Critical accounting estimates and judgements

  ��  Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

     The Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.

(a) Useful lives of property, plant and equipment

     The Group’s management determines the estimated useful lives and related depreciation charges for its property, plant and equipment. This estimate is based on the historical experience of the actual useful lives of property, plant and equipment of similar nature and functions. It could change significantly as a result of technical innovations and competitor actions in response to severe industry cycles. Management will increase the depreciation charge where useful lives are less than previously estimated lives, or it will write-off or write-down technically obsolete or non-strategic assets that have been abandoned or sold.

-VI-44-

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

(b)  Impairment of non-financial assets

     Property, plant and equipment, leasehold land and land use rights, and intangible assets (other than goodwill) are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable, and goodwill is tested annually for impairment in accordance with accounting policy stated in Note 2(f). The recoverable amounts are determined based on value-in-use calculations or market valuations. These calculations require the use of judgement and estimates.

     Management judgement is required in the area of asset impairment particularly in assessing: (i) whether an event has occurred that may indicate that the related asset value may not be recoverable; (ii) whether the carrying value of an asset can be supported by the recoverable amount, being the higher of fair value less costs to sell or net present value of future cash flows which are estimated based upon the continued use of the asset in the business; and (iii) the appropriate key assumptions to be applied in preparing cash flow projections including whether these cash flow projections are discounted using an appropriate rate. Changing the assumptions selected by management in assessing impairment, including the discount rates or the growth rate assumptions in the cash flow projections, could materially affect the net present value used in the impairment test and as a result affect the Group’s financial position and results of operations. If there is a significant adverse change in the projected performance and resulting future cash flow projections, it may be necessary to take an impairment charge to the consolidated income statement.

(c) Provision for impairment of trade and other receivables

     The Group makes provision for impairment of trade and other receivables based on an assessment of the recoverability of these receivables. Provisions are applied to trade and other receivables where events or changes in circumstances indicate that the balances may not be collectible. The identification of impairment of trade and other receivables requires the use of judgement and estimates. Where the expectation is different from the original estimate, such difference will impact the carrying value of receivables and provision for impairment losses in the period in which such estimate has been changed.

(d) Net realisable values of inventories

     Inventories are carried at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of inventories is written down to net realisable value when there is an objective evidence that the cost of inventories may not be recoverable. The cost of inventories may not be recoverable if those inventories are damaged, if they have become wholly or partially obsolete, or if their selling prices have declined. The cost of inventories may also not be recoverable if the estimated costs to be incurred to make the sale have increased. The amount written off to the consolidated income statement is the difference between the carrying value and net realisable value of the inventories. In determining whether the cost of inventories can be recoverable, significant judgement is required. In making this judgement, the Group evaluates, among other factors, the duration and extent by all means to which the amount will be recovered.

-VI-45-

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

(e) Present value of financial liabilities

     The Group’ management determines the estimated redemption value of the financial liabilities by using a predetermined formula based on the put option agreement described in Note 31. This formula requires the use of estimates and assumptions which are described in Note 31. Any changes in these assumptions will impact the present value determined and the amount recorded in the consolidated statement of financial position.

5 Segment information

     The chief operating decision-makers have been identified as the Executive Directors. The Executive Directors review the Group’s internal reporting in order to assess performance and allocate resources. The Executive Directors have determined the operating segments based on these reports. The Executive Directors consider the business from product perspective. The Executive Directors assess the performance of two main business segments: (i) manufacturing and distribution of PCB including but not limited to provision of circuit design, quick-turn-around services and drilling and routing services; and (ii) manufacturing and distribution of prepreg and laminate.

     The Executive Directors assess the performance of the operating segments based on a measure of operating profit. Interest income, finance costs, share of net profit of associated companies and income tax expense are not included in the result for each operating segment. Other information provided to the Executive Directors, except as noted below, is measured in a manner consistent with that in the financial information.

     Revenue consists of sales of (i) PCB; and (ii) prepreg and laminate. Sales between segements are carried out on terms equivalent to those prevail in arm’s length transactions. The revenue from external parties reported to the Executive Directors is measured in a manner consistent with that in the consolidated income statement.

     Segment assets consist primarily of property, plant and equipment, leasehold land and land use rights, intangible assets, available-for-sale financial assets, derivative financial instruments, inventories, debtors and prepayments, amounts due from related parties and cash and bank balances. They exclude items such as interests in associated companies, deferred tax assets and taxation recoverable, which are managed by the head office.

     Segment liabilities comprise operating liabilities. They excluded items such as amounts due to associated companies and related parties, deferred tax liabilities, dividend payable and taxation payable.

     Notes:

(a) Impairment test for goodwill

     Goodwill is allocated to the Group’s CGUs identified according to the country of operation. The allocation by country of operation is presented below:

							At
	At 31 December						30 September
	2006		2007		2008		2009
	HK$’000		HK$’000		HK$’000		HK$’000
Mainland China		14,477		122,229		16,415		16,426

     For the purposes of impairment reviews, the recoverable amount of goodwill is determined based on value-in-use calculations. The value-in-use calculations use cash flow projections based on the extrapolation of the latest unaudited financial results of each CGU to a five-year period. Cash flows beyond the five-year period are extrapolated using the estimated growth rates stated below. There are a number of assumptions and estimates involved for the preparation of cash flow projections for the year/period.

-VI-72-

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

     Key assumptions used for value-in-use calculations for goodwill for the following five years of each of the years ended 31 December 2006, 2007 and 2008 and nine months ended 30 September 2009 are presented below:

										At
				At 31 December						30 September
	2006			2007			2008			2009
Gross margin		21.0	%		23.0	%		19.2	%		19.7	%
Growth rate		16.8	%		20.0	%		10.0	%		10.0	%
Discount rate		10.0	%		8.3	%		6.1	%		6.1	%

     These assumptions have been used for the analysis of each CGU within the business segment. The directors prepared the financial budgets reflecting actual and prior year performance and market development expectations. The growth rates used are consistent with the industry growth estimates. The directors estimate discount rate using pre-tax rates that reflect market assessments of the time value of money of the Group for each of the years ended 31 December 2006, 2007 and 2008 and nine months ended 30 September 2009. Judgement is required to determine key assumptions adopted in the cash flow projections and changes to key assumptions can significantly affect these cash flow projections.

(b) Adjustment for change in estimate of contingent consideration

     At 31 December 2008 and 30 September 2009, the present value of the put option which represents a contingent consideration due in 2013 in relation to the acquisition of Meadville Aspocomp (BVI) Holdings Limited (“MAH”) (Note 38(c)), has been decreased by approximately HK$129,000,000 and has been increased by approximately HK$3,801,000 respectively. In connection with the adjustments made for the year ended 31 December 2008, relevant goodwill has been reduced by approximately HK$115,067,000 and the excess credit of approximately HK$13,933,000 has been recognised in the consolidated income statement. In connection with the adjustments made for the period ended 30 September 2009, no adjustment was made to relevant goodwill and the excess credit of approximately HK$13,425,000 has been recognised in the consolidated income statement while an amount of approximately HK$17,226,000 has been debited to the hedging reserve in the consolidated statement of changes in equity.

(ii)	The reduction during the year ended 31 December 2006 represented the assets and liabilities related to the Photomask Business which were excluded from the Group as a result of the Reorganisation. The above reduction is reflected as a distribution made to the equity holders of the Company.
(iii)	The employee share-based compensation reserve relates to the share award expenses, details of which are described in Note 7.

Note:

In November 2007, the Company entered into a contract with Aspocomp Group OYJ (“Aspocomp”), an independent third party, to acquire 80% of the equity interest in MAH. The Company and Aspocomp also entered into a put and call option agreement (“Option Deed”) as part and parcel of the MAH acquisition. Under the Option Deed, the Company was granted a call, to buy the remaining 20% equity interests in MAH and Aspocomp was granted a put option to sell its remaining 20% equity interests in MAH in the period from 2013 to 2023.

The put option granted under the Option Deed was recognised as financial liabilities in the consolidated financial statements of the Group at the present value of the redemption amount.

For the purposes of determining the present value of the put option, the put option is determined based on the greater of (i) enterprise value calculation which uses EBITDA projections based on the extrapolation of the latest unaudited consolidated financial results of MAH to a four-year period and an enterprise value multiplier of 5.5 times or (ii) net asset value based on the extrapolation of the latest unaudited consolidated financial results of MAH at end of the financial year 2012; or (iii) the minimum price of approximately EUR15.38 million plus interest which will accrue at the rate of 2.5% per annum, compounding annually for a five-year period up to financial year ending 31 December 2012.

-VI-100-

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

There are a number of assumptions and estimates involved in the preparation of EBITDA projections for the years/periods. Key assumptions used for enterprise value calculation for put option of each of the years ended 31 December 2007 and 2008 and nine months ended 30 September 2009 are presented as below:

									Nine months
									ended
	Year ended 31 December								30 September
	2006		2007			2008			2009
Gross margin		—		17.8	%		19.2	%		19.7	%
Growth rate		—		25.0	%		10.0	%		10.0	%
Discount rate		—		8.3	%		6.1	%		6.1	%

The directors prepared the financial budgets reflecting actual and prior year performance and market development expectations. The growth rates used are consistent with the industry growth estimates. The directors estimate discount rate using pre-tax rates that reflect market assessments of the time value of money of the Group for the years ended 31 December 2007 and 2008 and nine months ended 30 September 2009. Judgement is required to determine key assumptions adopted in the EBITDA projections and changes to key assumptions can significantly affect these EBITDA projections.

The value of put option at 31 December 2008 and 30 September 2009 represents the present value of the minimum price which was the highest possible value under the put option. (Note 18(b))

     On 16 November 2009, the Company and MTG(INV), entered into stock purchase agreement (“PCB Agreement”) with TTM Technologies, Inc. (“TTM”), TTM Technologies International, Inc. (“TTM International”) and TTM Hong Kong Limited (“TTM HK”), pursuant to which MTG(INV) has conditionally agreed to sell, and TTM HK has conditionally agreed to purchase, the PCB Business of the Company for a consideration of approximately US$114.0 million in cash and 36,334,000 new TTM’s shares (“the PCB Transaction”). TTM, TTM International and TTM HK are independent third parties to the Group. The completion of the PCB Transaction is subject to various conditions as stated in the PCB Agreement.

-VI-115-

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

     On the same day, MTG(INV) and Top Mix Investment Limited (“Top Mix”) entered into a sale and purchase agreement (the “Laminate Agreement”) pursuant to which MTG(INV) has conditionally agreed to sell, Top Mix has conditionally agreed to purchase, the Laminate Business for a consideration of approximately HK$2,783.8 million (the “Laminate Transaction”). If AVA International Limited (“AVA”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company in the Laminate Business, sells any of its shareholding in GSST, an associated company of AVA, listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange, prior to the completion date of the Laminate Transaction at a sale price per GSST share above the GSST Reference Price (as defined in the Laminate Agreement), the Company will propose the distribution of the incremental net amount (after any applicable transaction expenses and taxes) of the sale price per GSST share that is sold above the GSST Reference Price (“Incremental Net Amount”), subject to the fulfillment of the conditions precedent to making such distribution, to the shareholders of the Company as dividends. Top Mix is a connected person of the Company. The completion of the Laminate Transaction is subject to various conditions as stated in the Laminate Agreement.

     On 3 and 4 February 2010, AVA disposed of totally 47,000,000 of its GSST shares (“GSST Shares”), representing approximately 4.91% of the current issued share capital of GSST to certain independent third parties, for a total cash consideration of RMB518,750,000. The consideration on the disposal of GSST Shares after netting off the carrying value of the disposed GSST Shares and relevant expenses and taxes directly attributable to the disposed GSST Shares will be recognised as a gain in the consolidated income statement for the year ending 31 December 2010. Immediately after the disposal of the GSST Shares as aforementioned, the number of shares and percentage of equity held by AVA decreased from 212,288,109 shares to 165,288,109 shares and from approximately 22.18% to approximately 17.27% respectively of the current entire issued share capital of GSST.

     Subject to the fulfilment of certain conditions (including the completions of the PCB Transaction and Laminate Transaction), the Company will make a distribution of the entire amount of the considerations of PCB Transaction and Laminate Transaction (including the Incremental Net Amount, if any, arising from the disposal of GSST shares) by way of the dividend to the shareholders of the Company.

(a) The PCB Business of Meadville Holdings Limited

     The PCB Business has historically been conducted by various subsidiaries directly or indirectly controlled by the Company. Therefore, the accompanying combined income statements, statements of financial position and statements of cash flows were prepared by combining the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows that were directly applicable to the PCB Business and operations for the years/periods presented.

     The combined income statements of the PCB Business includes all the historical actual costs of the PCB Business and an allocation of certain general corporate expenses of the Company. These corporate expenses primarily relate to share award expenses in connection with shares that were granted by the controlling shareholder of the Company, Su Sih to senior executives of the Company

-VI-116-

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

who are involved in the PCB Business and Laminate Business. For those expenses for which a specific identification method was not practicable, the expenses were allocated based on estimates that management considered as a reasonable reflection of the utilisation of services provided to, or benefits received by the PCB Business.

     In relation to share award expenses, for shares that are granted to the employees of the PCB Business, the related expenses of approximately HK$86,070,000, HK$10,461,000, HK$8,297,000 (unaudited) and HK$9,632,000 for the years ended 31 December 2007, 2008 and nine months ended 30 September 2008 and 2009, respectively, are recorded based on the actual expenses of those employees. For shares which are granted to corporate level management, share award expenses of HK$140,027,000, HK$140,000, HK$107,000 (unaudited) and HK$265,000 for the years ended 31 December 2007, 2008 and nine months ended 30 September 2008 and 2009, respectively, are allocated based on revenue of the PCB Business to the Group.

     While the expenses allocated to the PCB Business are not necessarily indicative of the expenses that the PCB Business would have incurred if the PCB Business had been a separate, independent entity during the years/periods presented, management believes that the foregoing presents a reasonable basis of estimating what the PCB Business’ expenses would have been on a historical basis.

     The Company earned interest income on the deposits from the share subscriptions during the Listing in 2007. Interest income of nil, HK$12,038,000, nil, nil (unaudited) and nil for the years ended 31 December 2006, 2007 and 2008 and nine months ended 30 September 2008 and 2009 respectively are reflected in the PCB Business’ income statement based on specific identification of the use of the Listing proceeds.

     The combined income statements, combined statements of financial position and combined statements of cash flows of the PCB Business for the years ended 31 December 2006, 2007, 2008 and the nine months ended 30 September 2008 and 2009 are as follows:

APPENDIX VI ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON THE MEADVILLE GROUP

(b)The Laminate Business of Meadville Holdings Limited

     The Laminate Business has historically been conducted by various subsidiaries directly or indirectly controlled by the Company. Therefore, the accompanying combined income statements, statements of financial position and statements of cash flows were prepared by combining the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows that were directly applicable to the Laminate Business and operations for the years/periods presented.

     The combined income statements of the Laminate Business include all the historical actual costs of the Laminate Business and an allocation of certain general corporate expenses of the Company. These corporate expenses primarily relate to share award expenses in connection with shares that were granted by the controlling shareholder of the Company, Su Sih to senior executives of the Company who are involved in the PCB Business and Laminate Business. For those expenses for which a specific identification method was not practicable, the expenses were allocated based on estimates that management considered as a reasonable reflection of the utilisation of services provided to, or benefits received by the Laminate Business.

     In relation to share award expenses, for shares that are granted to the employees of the Laminate Business, the related expenses of approximately HK$5,777,000, HK$1,036,000, HK$777,000 (unaudited) and HK$838,000 for the years ended 31 December 2007, 2008 and nine months ended 30 September 2008 and 2009, respectively, are recorded based on the actual expenses of those employees. For shares which are granted to corporate level management, share award expenses of HK$22,628,000, HK$24,000, HK$17,000 (unaudited) and HK$37,000 for the years ended 31 December 2007, 2008 and nine months ended 30 September 2008 and 2009, respectively, are allocated based on revenue of the Laminate Business to the Group.

     While the expenses allocated to the Laminate Business are not necessarily indicative of the expenses that the Laminate Business would have incurred if the Laminate Business had been a separate, independent entity during the years/periods presented, management believes that the foregoing presents a reasonable basis of estimating what the Laminate Business’ expenses would have been on a historical basis.

     The Company earned interest income on the deposits from the share subscriptions during the Listing in 2007. Interest income of nil, HK$1,945,000, nil, nil (unaudited) and nil for the years ended 31 December 2006, 2007 and 2008 and nine months ended 30 September 2008 and 2009 respectively are reflected in the Laminate Business’ income statement based on specific identification of the use of the Listing proceeds.
