LC. AND SUBSIDIARIES INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

16 November 1999
LOXLEY PUBLIC COMPANY LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE THREE-MONTH AND NINE-MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 AND 1998 AND REPORT OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANT EXPRESSED IN Thai Baht REPORT OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANT The Board of Directors of Loxley Public Company Limited I have made a review of the balance sheets of Loxley Public Company Limited and the consolidated balance sheets of Loxley Public Company Limited and subsidiaries as at September 30, 1999 and 1998, the related statements of income, deficit, changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows of Loxley Public Company Limited and the consolidated statements of income, deficit, changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows of Loxley Public Company Limited and subsidiaries for the three-month periods and nine-month periods then ended. The review of such interim financial statements were made in accordance with standards established by the Institute of Certified Accountants and Auditors of Thailand. A review of interim financial statements consists principally of obtaining an understanding of the system for the preparation of interim financial statements, applying analytical review procedures to financial data, and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an examination in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, I do not express such an opinion. The Company accounts for its investments in subsidiaries and associated companies by the equity method. However, the interim financial statements of certain associated companies which were used as a basis for accounting for the investments under the equity method, had not been reviewed by the auditors. As at September 30, 1999 and 1998, the investments in such associated companies amounted to approximately Baht 603.5 million and Baht 633.8 million which equivalent to 4.5% and 4.9% of total assets in the consolidated balance sheets and 5.6% and 6.1% of total assets of the Company balance sheets, of each period, respectively. The equity in the results of operations of such associated companies which were included in the statements of income for the three-month periods ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, reported net income amounted to approximately Baht 20.1 million and Baht 27.9 million, which equivalent to (2.5)% and 5.6% of consolidated net income (loss) and (2.6)% and 5.4% of the Company net income (loss) for each period, respectively and for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, reported net income amounted to approximately Baht 86 million and Baht 117.2 million, which equivalent to (11.2)% and 9.3% of consolidated net income (loss) and (11.9)% and 9.1% of the Company net income (loss) for each period, respectively - 2 - Based on our review, except for the effects on the consolidated interim financial statements and the interim financial statements for the three-month and nine-month periods then ended September 30, 1999 and 1998 of such adjustments, if any, as might have been required had the result of the review of the interim financial statements of the associated companies discussed in the third paragraph been known, we are not aware of any other material modifications that should be made to the accompanying interim financial statements and the accompanying consolidated interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The accompanying interim financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the accounting assumptions that the Company and subsidiaries will continute as a going concern which presumes that the recoverability of their assets and the repayment of their liabilities are in the ordinary course of business. However, because of certain events described in Note 1 to the interim financial statements, along with the matter discussed in Note 10, the Company and subsidiaries' operations are uncertain that may raise an issue as to the Company and subsidiaries' ability to continue as a going concern which is dependent upon the success in debt restructuring plan and also matters as described in the said Notes. The accompanying interim financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company and subsidiaries be unable to continue as a going concern.
