CHAIRMAN’S
REVIEW
Dear Shareholder,
I take pleasure in presenting you the Annual Report
and Audited Financial Statements of Alufab PLC for the
financial year ended 31 March 2015.
Hayleys PLC acquired a controlling stake in your
company during October 2014.
At the time of
acquisition, the company had incurred a loss of
Rs.8Mn, and I am pleased to inform you that the
company has turnaround, ending the year with a profit
of Rs. 12.2Mn after three years of consecutive losses.
Although the year was a challenging one, the
company performed well, surpassing expectations
during the second half of the financial year. A turnover of Rs. 187Mn was generated this year which was
a noteworthy 95% increase when compared with the previous year’s turnover of Rs. 96Mn. Profit after
tax for the year was Rs. 12.2Mn when compared with the loss of Rs. 61.4Mn the previous year.
Industry Overview
During the year 2014 the Sri Lankan economy recorded a GPD growth of 7.4 percent, with the
construction sector growing significantly by 20.2 percent. There was a momentous involvement by the
private sector towards this growth, which was reflected by a 22.3 per cent increase in credit to the
private sector by commercial banks for construction activities during 2014, growing from Rs. 384Bn to
Rs. 470Bn. The aluminum fabrication industry benefitted through extensive construction projects led by
the private sector which mainly consisted of large scale mixed developments, hotels and residential
apartment complexes.
Change in Directorate
As a result of the acquisition, Mr. P. J. Claesson stepped down in November 2014, where in the undersigned was appointed as the Chairman of Alufab PLC w.e.f. Nov 2014. Mr. T.N. Dole relinquished his
position as the Managing Director w.e.f. Jan 2015.
Mr. S. J. Wijesinghe was appointed as Managing Director while Mr. S. C. Ganegoda was appointed to the
board as Non-Executive Director.
Mr. P. J. Claesson and Mr. D.V. Press would continue to remain as Non-Executive Directors in the
company. Mr. A. S. Jayatilleka and Mr. S. Munaweera were appointed as Independent Non-Executive
Directors to the board.
Way forward
We are confident that your company is poised do well in the years to come with the synergies gaining
from Hayleys Group’s financial strength along with aligning to the Group’s core values , and adhering to
the best practices of corporate governance . This would be a strategic advantage for Alufab PLC
creating opportunities for the company to engage in larger construction projects.
Maintaining a positive momentum the financial year closed with Alufab venturing into its first ever
overseas undertaking in the Maldives. The new management will continue to deliver its strategic
commitments to drive operational performance and create value for our shareholders.
In conclusion I wish to acknowledge my thanks to the Board of Directors and to the employees at all
levels for their diligence and hard work, and to our Clients, Developers, Main Contractors, Consultants,
Architects, and Engineers for their continuous patronage .

MANAGING DIRECTOR’S
REVIEW
Performance
It is with a sense of pride I note, that subsequent to the
acquisition of the controlling stake of Alufab PLC by
the Hayleys Group and the introduction of the new
Management, the Company has shown immense
potential both operationally and financially during the
last 5 months of the financial year 2014/15. During the
year under review the Company recorded a profit
before tax (PBT) of Rs.7.1 million compared with a loss
of Rs.57.9 million in the previous year. In terms of profit
after tax (PAT) the Company recorded a profit of
Rs.12.2 million against a loss of Rs.61.4 million recorded in the previous year.
Reviewing specifically the 5 month period since the acquisition by Hayleys, the Company recorded a
PBT of Rs.15.4 million and a PAT of Rs.20.5 million.
The agility with which new processes were adopted, inventory controls implemented and operational
procedures introduced, was a key element during the period of transition that contributed to effect the
turnaround in Alufab PLC. Identifying the inherent skill, knowledge and expertise of the workforce and
combining it with the proven strength and stability of Hayleys provided the fresh dynamism to steer the
Company towards a new era.
Since the acquisition, the Company focused on quality and timely completion of projects whilst ensuring profitability to the organization. Towards this, project planning was considered a key component.
Close coordination between design teams, cost management and procurement personnel and the
production floor were introduced. Inventory control and supply chain was stringently managed. The
organization expanded its base of suppliers whilst driving stringent productivity measures and favourable terms of procurement. New sources for primary products such as Aluminium, Glass and accessories
were secured.
Alufab has been successful in securing several major projects in Sri Lanka for supply and installation of
Aluminium sun louvers, joinery systems, shower cubicles and other commercial applications in the
construction industry. The projects are primarily new hospitality ventures that are currently taking place
in several locations spread over Sri Lanka. Alufab has focused on overseas markets and in the 3rd quarter of the year secured a contract for an international project.
Sustainable, Profitable Growth into the Future
Looking ahead, the Company has focused on several critical success factors. Most importantly attention
is being paid to enhance the knowledge of the employees. A rigorous skills development program with
assistance from experienced trainers, who will impart international best practices in fabrication and
installation of Aluminium systems, will be undertaken. Marketing will remain a key focus area and a fresh
and vibrant look will add a new edge to its dimension. This area will be further strengthened with experienced marketing personnel being added to the team. International markets will be pursued vigorously.
Competiveness is vital to be successful in international markets. Towards this cost management with
duty free concessions based on value added exports will be pursued. The fabrication facility will see the
addition of state of the art machinery and a highly automated production line that will enhance capacity,
enable delivery of precision quality, minimize wastage and improve overall productivity.
MANAGING DIRECTOR’S
REVIEW CONTD...
We will continue to focus on delivering shareholder value through our existing portfolio whilst also looking to the future with new growth businesses. This is the path to a sustainable future for Alufab.
Appreciation
My appreciation goes out to each and every member of the Company for their renewed efforts to steer
Alufab to new heights. The loyalty and dedication I have witnessed so far gives me confidence that the
Company will overcome any challenge posed and reach its goals and targets in the years ahead.
I also wish to thank the Chairman and Board of Directors of the Company for the trust placed in me and
the support given in every aspect of managing Alufab PLC.

the statement of financial position as at 31 March 2015, and the statement of profit and loss and other

Board’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
The Board of Directors (“Board”) is responsible for the preparation of these financial statements that

Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We
conducted our audit in accordance with Sri Lanka Auditing Standards. Those standards require that we
comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the
assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or
error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s
preparation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures
that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of
accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by Board, as well as
evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for
our audit opinion.

Directors’ Responsibility Report in the Annual Report.
2. Basis of preparation
2.1 Statement of compliance
The Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the Sri Lanka Accounting and Auditing Standards Act No. 15 of 1995, which requires compliance with Sri Lanka Accounting Standards
promulgated by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Sri Lanka (CA Sri Lanka), and with the requirements of the Companies Act No. 7 of 2007.
2.2. Basis of measurement

material items in the Statement of Financial Position.
•Land and building which are recognized as property plant and equipment are measured at cost
at the time of the acquisition and subsequently land and building are carried at fair value.

Where appropriate, the specific policies are explained in the succeeding notes.
No adjustments have been made for inflationary factors in the Financial Statements.
NOTES TO THE
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS CONTD...
2.3. Functional and presentation currency
The Financial Statements are presented in Sri Lankan Rupees (Rs), which is the Company’s functional
and presentation currency, except when otherwise indicated.
2.4 Materiality and Aggregation
Each material class of similar items is presented separately in the Financial Statements. Items of a
dissimilar nature or function are presented separately unless they are immaterial.
2.5 Comparative Information
The accounting policies have been consistently applied by the Company and, are consistent with
those used in the previous year. Previous year’s figures and phases have been re arranged wherever
necessary to conform current presentation.
2.6 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
2.6.1 Use of estimates & judgments
The preparation of Financial Statements in conformity with SLFRS/LKAS’s requires management to
make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and
the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Judgements and estimates are based
on historical experience and other factors, including expectations that are believed to be reasonable
under the circumstances. Hence actual experience and results may differ from these judgements and
estimates.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting
estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised if the revision affects only that
period and any future periods.
Information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgements in applying
accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial
statements is included in the following notes.
2.6.2 Going Concern
The Directors have made an assessment of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and is
satisfied that it has the resources to continue in business for the foreseeable future. Furthermore, management is not aware of any material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt upon the Company’s
ability to continue as a going concern. Therefore, the Financial Statements continue to be prepared on
the going concern basis.
2.6.3 Taxation
Uncertainties exist with respect to the interpretation of complex tax regulation, changes in tax laws, and
the amount and timing of future taxable income. The long-term nature and the complexity of existing
contractual agreements, differences arising between the actual results and the assumptions made, or
future changes to such assumptions, could necessitate future adjustments to tax income and expense
already recorded. The Company establish provisions, based on reasonable estimates, for possible
consequents of audits by the tax authorities. The amount of such provisions is based on various factors,
NOTES TO THE
such as experience of previous tax audits and differing interpretations of tax regulations by the taxable
entity and the responsible tax authority.
Deferred tax assets are recognized for unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable
profit will be available against which the losses can be utilised. Significant management judgement is
required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based on upon the
likely timing and the level of future taxable profits together as with future tax planning strategies.
2.6.4 Measurement of the defined benefit obligations
The present value of the defined benefit obligations depends on a number of factors that are
determined on an actuarial basis using a number of assumptions. Key assumptions used in determining
the defined retirement benefit obligations are given in note 16. Any changes in these assumptions will
impact the carrying amount of defined benefit obligations.
2.7 Impairment of property, plant and equipment
The impairment analysis is principally based upon discounted estimated cash flows from the use and
eventual disposal of the assets. Factors like lower than anticipated sales and resulting decreases of net
cash flows and changes in the discount rates could lead to impairment.
2.8 Revaluation of Land and Building
The Company measures land and building at revalued amount with change in value being recognized
in the Statement of Other comprehensive income. The valuer has used valuation techniques such as
open market value.
3 Significant Accounting Policies
The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in the
Financial Statements.
3.1. Foreign currency
3.1.1 Foreign currency transactions
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the functional currencies of the Company at
exchange rates applicable on the dates of the transaction.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are retranslated
at the functional currency spot rate of exchange ruling at the reporting date. Foreign currency differences arising on retranslation are recognised in the statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive
income. All differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are taken to statement of
profit & loss. Non-monetary assets and liabilities which are carried in terms of historical cost in a foreign
currency are translated at the exchange rate that prevailed at the date of the initial transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the
date when the fair value is determined. The gain or loss arising on retranslation of non-monetary items is
treated in line with the recognition of gain or loss on change in fair value of the item (i.e., translation
differences on items whose fair value gain or loss is recognised in the other comprehensive income or
statement of profit & loss also recognised in Other Comprehensive Income or statement of profit & loss,
respectively).
NOTES TO THE
3.2 Current versus non-current classification
The Company presents assets and liabilities in Statement of Financial Position based on
current/non-current classification. An asset as current when it is:
• Expected to be realised or intended to sold or consumed in normal operating cycle
• Held primarily for the purpose of trading
• Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period
or
• Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at
least twelve months after the reporting period
All other assets are classified as non-current. A liability is current when:
• It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle
• It is held primarily for the purpose of trading
• It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period
or
• There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months
after the reporting period
The Company classifies all other liabilities as non-current.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.
3.3 Assets and bases of their valuation
3.3.1 Property, plant & equipment
The Company applies the requirements of LKAS 16 on ‘Property Plant and Equipment’ in accounting for
its owned assets which are held for and use in the provision of the services, for rental to other or for
administration purpose and are expected to be used for more than one year.
3.3.1.1 Basis of Recognition.
Property Plant and Equipment is recognised if it is probable that future economic benefit associated
with the assets will flow to the Company and cost of the asset can be reliably measured.
3.3.1.2 Basis of measurement.
Items of property, plant & equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any, whilst land and building is measured at fair value.
3.3.1.3 Owned assets
The cost of property, plant & equipment includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials and direct labour, any
other costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to a working condition for its intended use, and the
costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located, and
borrowing costs on qualifying assets. Purchased software that is integral to the functionality of the related equipment is capitalised as a part of that equipment.
When significant parts of plant and equipment are required to be replaced at intervals, the Company
depreciates them separately based on their specific useful lives.
Revaluation of land and building is done with sufficient frequency to ensure that the fair value of the
land and building dose not differ materially from its carrying amount, and is undertaken by professionally qualified valuers.
NOTES TO THE
Any revaluation surplus is recorded in Other Comprehensive Income and credited to the asset revaluation reserve in equity, except to the extent that it reverses a revaluation decrease of the same asset previously recognised in the statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income in which case, the
increase is recognised in the statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income. A revaluation deficit is recognised in the statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income, except to
the extent that it offsets an existing surplus on the same asset recognised in the asset revaluation
reserve. Upon disposal, any revaluation reserve relating to the particular asset being sold is transferred
to retained earnings.
3.3.1.4 Subsequent costs
The cost of replacing a component of an item of property, plant & equipment is recognised in the carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will
flow to the Company and its cost can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is
derecognised in accordance with the derecognition policy given below.
The costs of the repair and maintenance of property, plant & equipment are recognised in statement of
profit and loss and other comprehensive income as incurred.
3.3.1.5 Derecognition
The carrying amount of an item of property, plant & equipment is derecognised on disposal; or when no
future economic benefits are expected from its use. Any gains and losses on derecognition are
recognised in statement of profit & loss and gains are not classified as revenue. When revalued assets
are sold, any amount related to the particular asset included in the revaluation reserve is transferred to
retained earnings.
3.3.1.6 Depreciation
Depreciation is recognised in statement of profit & loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful
lives of each part of an item of property, plant & equipment, since this most closely reflects the expected
pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits embodied in the asset.
The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative periods are as follows:
Buildings
Software
Plant & machinery
Motor vehicles
Furniture, fittings & office equipment
- 20 – 25 years
- 03 – 05 years
- 05 – 10 years
- 04 – 05 years
- 04 – 10 years
Depreciation of an asset begins when it is available for use and ceases at the earlier of the dates on
which the asset is classified as held for sale or is derecognized.
The asset’s residual values, useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each financial year
end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
3.3.1.7 Leased assets
The determination of whether an arrangement is, or contains, a lease is based on the substance of the
arrangement at inception date, whether fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a
specific asset or assets or the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset, even if that right is not explicitly specified in an arrangement.
NOTES TO THE
3.4 Financial instruments – initial recognition and subsequent measurement
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and financial liability
or equity instrument of another entity.
3.4.1 Financial assets
3.4.1.1 Initial recognition and measurement
Financial assets within the scope of LKAS 39 are classified as financial assets at fair value through profit
or loss, loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments, available-for-sale financial assets, or as
derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate. The Company
determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.
All financial assets are recognised initially at fair value plus transaction costs, except in the case of financial assets recorded at fair value through profit or loss.
Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a time frame established by
regulation or convention in the market place (regular way trades) are recognised on the trade date, i.e.,
the date that the Company commits to purchase or sell the asset.
The Company’s financial assets include cash and short-term deposits, trade and other receivables,
amounts due from related companies. Accordingly the company’s financial assets do not include financial assets at fair value through profit & loss, held maturity investment available for sale financial assets
and derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge.
3.4.1.2 Subsequent measurement
The subsequent measurement of financial assets depends on their classification as described below:
a) Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are
not quoted in an active market. After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method (EIR) , less impairment. Amortised
cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that
are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included in finance income in the statement of
profit and loss and other comprehensive income. The losses arising from impairment are recognised in
the statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income in finance costs for loans and in other
operating expenses for receivables.
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial
assets) is derecognised when:
• The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired
or
• The Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an
obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a
‘pass-through’ arrangement; and either (a) the Company has transferred substantially all the risks
and rewards of the asset, or (b) the Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all
NOTES TO THE
the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.
When the Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a
pass-through arrangement, it evaluates if and to what extent it has retained the risks and rewards of
ownership. When it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of the
asset, nor transferred control of the asset, the asset is recognised to the extent of the Company’s
continuing involvement in the asset. In that case, the Company also recognises an associated liability.
The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and
obligations that the Company has retained.
Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the
lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the
Company could be required to repay.
3.4.1.4 Impairment of Financial Assets
The Company assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is any objective evidence that a financial
asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is deemed
to be impaired if, and only if, there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events
that has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (an incurred ‘loss event’) and that loss event
has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or the group of financial assets
that can be reliably estimated. Evidence of impairment may include indications that the debtors or a
group of debtors is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or
principal payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation and
when observable data indicate that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows,
such as changes in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults.
3.4.1.4.1 Financial assets carried at amortised cost
For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the Company first assesses whether objective evidence of
impairment exists individually for financial assets that are individually significant, or collectively for
financial assets that are not individually significant. If the Company determines that no objective
evidence of impairment exists for an individually assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, it
includes the asset in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and collectively
assesses them for impairment. Assets that are individually assessed for impairment and for which an
impairment loss is, or continues to be, recognised are not included in a collective assessment of impairment.
If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the assets’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future
cash flows (excluding future expected credit losses that have not yet been incurred). The present value
of the estimated future cash flows is discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. If a
loan has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current EIR.
The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of an allowance account and the amount
of the loss is recognised in the statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income. Interest
income continues to be accrued on the reduced carrying amount and is accrued using the rate of interest used to discount the future cash flows for the purpose of measuring the impairment loss. The interest
income is recorded as part of finance income in the statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income. Loans together with the associated allowance are written off when there is no realistic prospect of future recovery and all collateral has been realised or has been transferred to the Company. If, in
a subsequent year, the amount of the estimated impairment loss increases or decreases because of an
NOTES TO THE
event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is
increased or reduced by adjusting the allowance account. If a future write-off is later recovered, the
recovery is credited to finance costs in the statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive
income.
3.4.2Financial liabilities
3.4.2.1 Initial recognition and measurement
Financial liabilities within the scope of LKAS 39 are classified as financial liabilities at fair value through
profit or loss, loans and borrowings, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective
hedge, as appropriate. The Company determines the classification of its financial liabilities at initial
recognition.
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value plus, in the case of loans and borrowings,
directly attributable transaction costs.
The Company’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, bank overdrafts, loans and borrowings, financial guarantee contracts and amounts due to related parties.
3.4.2.2 Subsequent measurement
The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification as described below:
a)Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading and
financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss. Financial
liabilities are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling in the near
term. This category includes derivative financial instruments entered into by the Company that are not
designated as hedging instruments in hedge relationships as defined by LKAS 39. Separated embedded derivatives are also classified as held for trading unless they are designated as effective hedging
instruments.
Gains or losses on liabilities held for trading are recognised in the statement of profit and loss and other
comprehensive income. Financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition at fair value through
profit and loss so designated at the initial date of recognition, and only if criteria of LKAS 39 are satisfied.
b)Loans and borrowings
After initial recognition, interest bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised
cost using the EIR method. Gains and losses are recognised in the statement of profit and loss and other
comprehensive income when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the EIR amortisation
process.
Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or
costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included in finance costs in the
Statement of Profit & Loss.
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or
expires.
NOTES TO THE
When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different
terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is
treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference
in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income.
3.4.3 Offsetting of financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the Statement of Financial Position if, and only if:
•There is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts And
•There is an intention to settle on a net basis, or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities
simultaneously
3.4.4 Current Assets
Assets classified as current assets on the Statement of Financial Position are cash and bank balances
and those which are expected to be realised in cash during the normal operating cycle or within one
year from the reporting date, whichever is shorter.
3.4.4.1 Inventories
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Costs incurred in bringing each
product to its present location and condition are accounted for as follows:
• All inventory items, except manufactured inventories and work-in-progress are measured at
weighted average directly attributable cost.
• Manufactured inventories and work-in-progress are measured at weighted average factory cost
which includes all direct expenditure and appropriate share of production overhead based on
normal operating capacity but excluding borrowing costs.
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less, the estimated
cost of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
3.4.4.2 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and call deposits. Bank overdrafts that are
repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Company's cash management are included as a
component of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of the Statement of Cash Flows.
3.5 Liabilities and Provisions
3.5.1 Employee benefits
3.5.1.1 Defined contribution plans
A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed
contributions into a separate entity and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further
amounts. Obligations for contributions to Provident and Trust Funds covering all employees are
recognised as an employee benefit expense in profit or loss in the periods during which services are
rendered by employees.
The Company contributes 12% and 3% of gross emoluments to employees as Provident Fund and Trust
Fund contribution respectively.
NOTES TO THE
3.5.1.2 Defined benefit plans
A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan other than a defined contribution plan. The
defined benefit is calculated by independent actuaries using Projected Unit Credit (PUC) method as
recommended by LKAS 19 – “Employee benefits”. The present value of the defined benefit obligation is
determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows using interest rates that are denominated
in the currency in which the benefits will be paid, and that have terms to maturity approximating to the
terms of the related liability. The present value of the defined benefit obligations depends on a number
of factors that are determined on an actuarial basis using a number of assumptions. Key assumptions
used in determining the defined retirement benefit obligations are given in note 16. Any changes in
these assumptions will impact the carrying amount of defined benefit obligations.
Provision has been made for retirement gratuities from the beginning of service for all employees, in
conformity with LKAS 19 on employee benefit. However, under the Payment of Gratuity Act No. 12 of
1983, the liability to an employee arises only on completion of 5 years of continued service.
The liability is not externally funded. This liability is computed on the following basis:
Length of service
(Years)
No. of month’s salary for each
completed year of service
Up to 20
20 up to 25
25 up to 30
30 up to 35
Over 35
1/2
3/4
1
1 1/4
1½
3.5.2 Recognition of Actuarial Gains or losses
Actuarial gains or losses are recognised in full in the Other Comprehensive Income.
3.5.3 Short-term benefits
Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as
the related service is provided.
3.5.4 Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result
of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required
to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. When the
Company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, the reimbursement is recognised as a
separate asset, but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any
provision is presented in the statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income net of any
reimbursement.
3.5.5 Warranties
A provision for warranties is recognised when the underlying products or services are sold. The
provision is based on historical warranty data and a weighing of possible outcomes against their
associated probabilities.
NOTES TO THE
3.5.6 Capital commitments and contingencies
Capital commitments and contingent liabilities of the Company are disclosed in the respective Note 24
& 25 to the Financial Statements.
3.5.7 Ordinary shares
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary
shares are recognised as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.
3.6 Statement of Profit and Loss and Other Comprehensive Income
For the purpose of presentation of the Statement of Profit & Loss, the function of expenses method is
adopted.
3.6.1 Revenue
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the
Company and the revenue can be reliably measured, regardless of when the payment is being made.
The specific recognition criteria described below must also be met before revenue is recognized.
a)Sale of goods
Revenue from the sale of goods is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable,
net of returns and allowances, trade discounts and volume rebates. Revenue is recognised when the
significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer, recovery of the
consideration is probable, the associated costs and possible return of goods can be estimated reliably,
there is no continuing management involvement with the goods, and the amount of revenue can be
measured reliably.
b)Rendering of services
Revenue from services rendered is recognised in profit and loss in proportion to the stage of completion
of the transaction at the reporting date.
c)Gains and losses
Gains and losses on disposal of an item of property, plant & equipment are determined by comparing
the net sales proceeds with the carrying amounts of property, plant & equipment and are recognised
net within “other operating income” in statement of profit & loss.
d)Other income
Other income is recognized on an accrual basis.
3.6.2 Expenses
Expenses are recognized in the statement of profit & loss on the basis of a direct association between
the cost incurred and the earnings of specific items of income. All expenditure incurred in the running of
the business has been charged to income in arriving at the profit for the year. Repairs and renewals are
charged to profit and loss in the year in which the expenditure is incurred.
NOTES TO THE
3.6.2.1 Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs are recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred, except to the
extent that they are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying
asset, in which case they are capitalized as part of the cost of that asset.
3.6.2.2 Finance income and finance costs
Finance income comprises interest income on funds invested (including available-for-sale financial
assets), dividend income, gains on the disposal of available-for-sale financial assets, changes in the fair
value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, and gains on hedging instruments that are
recognised in statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income. Interest income is
recognised as it accrues in statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income. Finance costs
comprise interest expense on borrowings, unwinding of the discount on provisions, changes in the fair
value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, and losses on hedging instruments that are
recognised in statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income.
The interest expense component of finance lease payments is allocated to each period during the lease
term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.
Foreign currency gains and losses are reported on a net basis.
3.6.3 Tax expense
Tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax and deferred tax are recognised in
statement of profit & loss except to the extent that it relates to a business combination, or items
recognised directly in equity or in other comprehensive income.
3.6.3.1 Current tax
Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted at the
reporting date and any adjustments to tax payable in respect of previous years.
Current tax relating to items recognised directly in Other Comprehensive Income is recognised in Other
Comprehensive Income and not in the statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income.
Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which
applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate.
3.6.3.2 Deferred tax
Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on temporary differences between the tax bases of
assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except:
• When the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability
in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects
neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused
tax credits and any unused tax losses. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable
NOTES TO THE
that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry
forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except:
•When the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial
recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the
time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date 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
deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date
and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the
deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year
when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Deferred tax relating to items recognised outside statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive
income is recognised outside Statement of Profit & Loss. Deferred tax items are recognised in correlation
to the underlying transaction either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.
3.6.3.3 Sales tax
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of sales tax, except:
• When the sales tax incurred on a purchase of assets or services is not recoverable from the taxation
authority, in which case, the sales tax is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or
as part of the expense item, as applicable
•Receivables and payables that are stated with the amount of sales tax. The net amount of sales tax
recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables
in the Statement of Financial Position.
4. General
4.1 Events occurring after the Reporting date
All material post occurred after the reporting date events have been considered and where appropriate
adjustments or disclosures have been made in the respective notes to the Financial Statements.
4.2 Earnings per share
The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is
calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by the
weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is determined
by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of
ordinary shares outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.
NOTES TO THE
4.3 Cash Flow Statement
The Cash Flow Statement has been prepared using the "indirect method".
Interest paid is classified as an financing cash flow. Grants received, which are related to purchase
and construction of property, plant & equipment are classified as investing cash flows. Dividend is
classified as cash flows from investing activities.
4.4 Standards issued but not yet effective
Standards issued but not yet effective up to the date of issuance of the Company’s Financial Statements
are listed below. This listing of standards and interpretations issued are those that the Company reasonably expects to have an impact on disclosures, financial position or performance when applied at a
future date. The Company intends to adopt these standards when they become effective.
Pending the completion of detailed review, the financial impact is reasonably estimatable at the date of
the publication of these Financial Statements.
•SLFRS 9 -Financial Instruments: Classification and Measurement
SLFRS 9, as issued reflects the first phase of work on replacement of LKAS 39 and applies to classi
fication and measurement of financial assets and liabilities.
This standard was originally effective for annual periods commencing on or after 01 January 2015.
However the effective date has been deferred subsequently and the revised effective date is yet to
be announced.
•SLFRS 14 Regulatory Deferral Accounts
The scope of this standard is limited to first-time adopters of SLFRS that already recognise
regulatory deferral account balances in their financial statements. Consequently, the financial
statements of rate regulated entities that already apply SLFRS, or that do not otherwise recognise
such balances, will not be affected by this standard.
SLFRS 14 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016. Since the Company
is an existing SLFRS preparer, this standard would not apply.
•SLFRS 15 -Revenue from Contracts with Customers
SLFRS 15 establishes a comprehensive framework for determining whether, how much and when
revenue is recognised. It replaces existing revenue recognition guidance, including LKAS 18 Reve
nue, LKAS 11 Construction Contracts and IFRIC 13 Customer Loyalty Programmes. This standard
is effective for the annual periods beginning on or after 01 January 2017.
4.5 New and amended standards and interpretations
4.5.1 SLFRS 13 - Fair value measurement
SLFRS 13 establishes a single source of guidance under SLFRS for all fair value measurements. SLFRS
13 does not change when an entity is required to use fair value, but rather provides guidance on how to
measure fair value under SLFRS.
SLFRS 13 defines fair value as an exit price. As a result of the guidance in SLFRS 13, the Company re-assessed its policies for measuring fair values. Application of SLFRS 13 has not materially impacted the fair
NOTES TO THE
value measurements of the Company. Additional disclosures where required, are provided in the
individual notes relating to the assets and liabilities whose fair values were determined.
4.5.3 LKAS 1 Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income – Amendments to
LKAS 1
The amendments to LKAS 1 introduce a grouping of items presented in Other Comprehensive Income.
Items that will be reclassified (‘recycled’) to statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive
income at a future point in time (e.g., net loss or gain on AFS financial assets) have to be presented
separately from items that will not be reclassified (e.g., revaluation of land).
The amendments affect presentation only and have no impact on the Company’s financial position or
performance.

12.1 Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit for the year attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted
average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year. The weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding
during the year and the previous year are adjusted for events that have changed the number of ordinary shares outstanding,
without a corresponding change in the resources such as a Bonus Issue.
12.2 The income and share data used in the basic earning per share computation as follows.

Diluted earnings /(Loss) per share is calculated by dividing the net profit/ (Loss) for the year attributable to ordinary shareholders
by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year after adjustment for the effects of all dilutive
potential ordinary shares.
As at 31st March 2015 and 31st March 2014 there were no dilutive potential ordinary shares. Hence diluted earnings per share is
same as basic earnings /(Loss) per share.

NOTES TO THE
31 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
Overview
The Company has exposure to the following risks arising from financial instruments
• Credit risk
• Liquidity risk
• Market risk.
This note presents information about the Company’s exposure to each of the above risks, the
Company’s objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk, and the Company’s management of capital.
Risk management framework
The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the
Company’s risk management framework.
The Company’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyze the risks faced by
the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor risks and adherence to
limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market
conditions and the Company’s activities. The Company, through its training and management
standards and procedures, aims to develop a disciplined and constructive control environment in
which all employees understand their roles and obligations.
The Company Audit Committee monitors the process through which business risks are identified
for action by management and for the Board’s attention and monitors the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls. The Company Audit Committee is assisted in its role by Internal Audit.
Internal Audit undertakes both regular and ad hoc reviews of controls and procedures, the results
of which are reported to the Audit Committee.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial
instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company’s
receivables from customers and investment securities.
Exposure to credit risk
The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. The maximum
Exposure to credit risk at the reporting date was as follows.

NOTES TO THE
Trade and other receivables
The Company’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each
customer. However, management also considers the demographics of the Company’s customer
base, including the default risk of the industry and country in which customers operate, as these
factors may have an influence on credit risk.
Each new customer is analyzed individually for creditworthiness before the Company’s standard
payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered. Customers that fail to meet the Company’s
benchmark creditworthiness may transact with the Company only on a prepayment basis.
The Company establishes an allowance for impairment that represents its estimate of incurred losses
in respect of trade and other receivables. The main components of this allowance are a specific loss
component that relates to individually significant exposures, and a collective loss component established for companys of similar assets in respect of losses that have been incurred but not yet identified. The collective loss allowance is determined based on historical data of payment statistics for
similar financial assets.
Impairment losses
Trade and other receivables at the reporting date was neither past due nor impaired. Except for the
impaired debtors worth of Rs. 2,976,057/- for which full impairment provision been made.

Cash and cash equivalents
The Company held cash and cash equivalents of Rs. 138Mn at 31st March 2015 (2014:131Mn),
which represents its maximum credit exposure on these assets. The cash and cash equivalents are
held with Hatton national bank PLC. Credit rating of Hatton National Bank PLC is AA-(lka).
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without
incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation.
The Company maintains the level of its cash and cash equivalents at an amount in excess of expected cash outflows on financial liabilities (other than trade payables) over the succeeding 60 days. The
Company also monitors the level of expected cash inflows on trade and other receivables together
with expected cash outflows on trade and other payables.
NOTES TO THE
Market risk
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates
and equity prices will affect the Company’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures
within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return.
Currency risk
The Company is exposed to currency risk on sales, purchases and borrowings that are denominated
in a currency other than Sri Lankan Rupees.
Interest rate risk
The Company does not account for any fixed rate financial assets and liabilities at fair value through
profit or loss, and the Company does not designate derivatives as hedging instruments under a fair
value hedge accounting model. Therefore a change in interest rates at the reporting date would not
affect profit or loss.
Capital management
The Board’s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market
confidence and to sustain future development of the business. Capital consists of ordinary shares,
retained earnings of the Company. The Board of Directors monitors the return on capital as well as
the level of dividends to ordinary shareholders.
The Company’s net debt to adjusted equity ratio at the reporting date was as follows
