DIRECTORS’ REPORT

The directors of WELLS EASTERN ASIA DISPLAYS (M) SDN. BHD. have pleasure in
submitting their report and the audited financial statements of the Company
for the financial year ended December 31, 2003.

PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY

The Company is principally involved in manufacturing colour monitors. There
has been no significant change in the nature of the activity of the Company
during the financial year.

RM
	Net profit after tax for the year

	 	 	1,622,450

during the financial year have not been substantially affected by any item,
transaction or event of a material and unusual nature.

previous financial year. The directors also do not recommend any dividend
payment in respect of the current financial year.

Company No.: 501396 U

SHARE OPTIONS

No options have been granted by the Company to any parties during the
financial year to take up unissued shares of the Company.

No shares have been issued during the financial year by virtue of the exercise
of any option to take up unissued shares of the Company. As of the end of the
financial year, there were no unissued shares of the Company under options.

OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Before the income statement and balance sheet of the Company were made out,
the directors took reasonable steps:

	(a)	 	to ascertain that proper action had been taken in relation to the writing
off of bad debts and
the making of allowance for doubtful debts, and have satisfied themselves
that there are no
known bad debts to be written off and no allowance for doubtful debts is
required; and
	 
	(b)	 	to ensure that any current assets which were unlikely to realise their
book values in the
ordinary course of business have been written down to their estimated
realisable values.

At the date of this report, the directors are not aware of any circumstances:

	(a)	 	which would require the writing off of bad debts or the setting up of
allowance for doubtful
debts in the financial statements of the Company; or
	 
	(b)	 	which would render the values attributed to current assets in the
financial statements of the
Company misleading; or
	 
	(c)	 	which have arisen which render adherence to the existing method of
valuation of assets or
liabilities of the Company misleading or inappropriate; or
	 
	(d)	 	not otherwise dealt with in this report or financial statements which
would render any amount
stated in the financial statements of the Company misleading.

At the date of this report, there does not exist:

	(a)	 	any charge on the assets of the Company which has arisen since the end of
the financial year
and secures the liability of any other person; or
	 
	(b)	 	any contingent liability of the Company which has arisen since the end of
the financial year.

2

 

Company No.: 501396 U

No contingent or other liability has become enforceable or is likely to become
enforceable within the period of twelve months after the end of the financial
year which, in the opinion of the directors, will or may substantially affect
the ability of the Company to meet its obligations as and when they fall due.

In the opinion of the directors, no item, transaction or event of a material
and unusual nature has arisen in the interval between the end of the financial
year and the date of this report which is likely to affect substantially the
results of operations of the Company for the succeeding financial year.

REPORT OF THE AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF

WELLS EASTERN ASIA DISPLAYS (M) SDN. BHD.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet as of December 31, 2003, and the related
statements of income, changes in equity and cash flows, for the year then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company’s directors. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with approved standards on auditing in
Malaysia. These 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 examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statements presentation. We believe that our audit provides
a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion:

	(a)	 	the financial statements are properly drawn up in accordance with the
provisions of the
Companies Act, 1965 and the applicable approved accounting standards in
Malaysia so as to
give a true and fair view of:

	 	(i)	 	the state of affairs of the Company as of December 31,
2003 and of its results and cash flows for the year ended on that
date; and
	 
	 	(ii)	 	the matters required by Section 169 of the Act to be
dealt with in the financial statements; and

	(b)	 	the accounting and other records and the registers required by the Act to
be kept by the
Company have been properly kept in accordance with the provisions of the
Act.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2003

	1.	 	PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY

	 	 	The Company is principally involved in manufacturing colour monitors.
There has been no significant change in the nature of the activity of
the Company during the financial year.

	2.	 	BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

	 	 	The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance
with the provisions of the Companies Act, 1965 and the applicable
approved accounting standards of the Malaysian Accounting Standards
Board.

	 	 	The financial statements of the Company have been approved by the Board
of Directors for issuance on February 25, 2004.

	3.	 	SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

	 	 	Basis of Accounting

	 	 	The financial statements of the Company have been prepared under the
historical cost convention unless stated otherwise in the accounting
policies mentioned below.

	 	 	Revenue

	 	 	Revenue represents gross invoiced value of sales less returns.

	 	 	Sales of goods are recognised upon delivery of products and when the
risks and rewards of ownership have passed.

	 	 	Other operating income are recognised on an
accrual basis.
	 
	 	 	Foreign Currency Conversion

	 	 	Transactions in foreign currencies are converted into Ringgit Malaysia
at the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates and, where
settlement of liabilities and receivables have not yet taken place at
the end of the financial year, at the approximate exchange rates
prevailing on that date. Gains or losses arising from foreign currency
conversions are taken up in the income statement.

	 	 	The principal closing rate used in translation of foreign currency
amounts is USD1: RM3.8005 (2002: USD1: RM3.8000).

	 	 	Income Tax

	 	 	The charge for current tax is based on the results for the year as
adjusted for items which are non-assessable or disallowed. It is
calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively
enacted by the balance sheet date.

Company No.: 501396 U

	 	 	Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method
in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the
carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements
and the corresponding tax basis used in the computation of taxable
profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all
taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to
the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available
against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such
assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary differences
arises from the initial recognition of assets and liabilities in a
transaction which affects neither the tax profit nor the accounting
profit.

	 	 	At each balance sheet date, the Company re-assesses unrecognised deferred
tax assets and the carrying amount of deferred tax assets. The Company
recognises a previously unrecognised deferred tax asset to the extent
that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the
deferred tax asset to be recovered. The carrying amount of a deferred tax
asset is reviewed at each balance sheet and reduced to the extent that it
is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to
allow the benefit of part or all of the deferred tax asset to be
utilised.

	 	 	Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rate that is expected to apply to
the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled.
Deferred tax is charged or credited in the income statement, except when
it relates to items credited or charged directly to equity, in which
case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity.

	 	 	Employee Benefit Costs

	 	 	Wages, salaries, bonuses, social contributions and other employee
benefits are recognised as expenses in the year in which the associated
services are rendered by employees of the Company. As required by law,
companies in Malaysia make contributions to a defined contribution plan,
the employees’ provident fund. Such contributions are recognised as
expenses in the income statement as incurred.

	 	 	Employee leave entitlement is recognised when it accrues to employee.
Accrual is made for the estimated liability for unconsumed leave as a
result of services rendered by the employees of the Company up to the
balance sheet date.

	 	 	Property, Plant and Equipment

	 	 	Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated
depreciation.

	 	 	The carrying amounts of property, plant and equipment are reviewed at
each balance sheet date to determine whether there is any indication of
impairment. An impairment loss is recognised whenever the carrying
amount of an item of property, plant and equipment exceeds its
recoverable amount. The impairment loss is charged to the income
statement unless it reverses a previous revaluation in which case it is
treated as a revaluation decrease.

	 	 	Gains or losses arising from the disposal of an asset is determined as
the difference between the estimated net disposal proceeds and the
carrying amount of the asset, and is recognised in the income statement.

	 	 	All property, plant and equipment are depreciated on a straight line
method to their residual values at rates based on the estimated useful
lives of the various assets.

	The annual depreciation rates are as follows:
	 	 	 	 
	Plant and machinery
	 	 	10% - 20	%
	Electrical installation
	 	 	10	%
	Motor vehicle
	 	 	20	%

	Factor tools and equipment
	 	 	20	%
	Mould
	 	 	10	%
	Test equipment
	 	 	20	%

	 	 	Property, Plant and Equipment Under Hire-Purchase Arrangements

	 	 	Property, plant and equipment acquired under hire-purchase arrangements
are capitalised in the financial statements and the corresponding
obligations treated as liabilities.

	 	 	Inventories

	 	 	Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
Cost is determined on the first-in, first-out basis. Net realisable
value represents the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of
business less selling and distribution costs and all other estimated
costs to completion.

	 	 	Cost of raw materials consists of the original purchase price plus the
cost of bringing the inventories to their present location. Cost of
work-in-progress and finished goods consists of cost of raw materials,
direct labour and an appropriate proportion of factory overheads.

	 	 	Receivables

	 	 	Receivables are stated at nominal value as reduced by the appropriate
allowances for estimated irrecoverable amounts. Allowance for doubtful
debts is made based on estimates of possible losses which may arise from
non-collection of certain receivable accounts.

	 	 	Provisions

	 	 	Provisions are made when the Company has a present legal or constructive
obligation as a result of past events, when it is probable that an
outflow of resources will be recognised to settle the obligation, and
when a reliable estimate of the amount can be made.

	 	 	Cash and Cash Equivalents

	 	 	Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash and bank balances, demand
deposits, bank overdrafts and highly liquid investments which are
readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an
insignificant risk of changes in value.

Company No.: 501396 U

	 	 	Financial Instruments

	 	 	Financial instruments carried on the balance sheet include cash and bank
balances, receivables, payables and borrowings. The particular
recognition methods adopted are disclosed in the individual accounting
policy statements associated with each item.

	 	 	Financial instruments are classified as liabilities or equity in
accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement. Interests,
dividends, gains and losses relating to a financial instrument classified
as liability are reported as expense or income. Distributions to holders
of financial instruments classified as equity are charged directly to
equity. Financial instruments are offset when the Company has a legally
unforeseeable right to set off the recognised amounts and intends either
to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the
liability simultaneously.
