15 May 2000
LOXLEY PUBLIC COMPANY LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE THREE-MONTH PERIODS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000 AND 1999 (With Comparative Figures Balance Sheet and Consolidated Balance Sheet As At December 31, 1999) AND REVIEW REPORT OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANT EXPRESSED IN Thai Baht REVIEW REPORT OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANT The Board of Directors of Loxley Public Company Limited I have reviewed of the balance sheet of Loxley Public Company Limited and the consolidated balance sheet of Loxley Public Company Limited and subsidiaries as at March 31, 2000, and the related statements of income, deficit, changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows of Loxley Public Company Limited and the consolidated statements of income, consolidated deficit, consolidated changes in shareholders' equity and consolidated cash flows of Loxley Public Company Limited and subsidiaries for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2000 and 1999. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management as to their correctness and completeness of the presentation. My responsibility is to issue a report on these financial statements based on my reviews. I conducted my reviews in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards applicable to review engagements. This standard requires that I plan and perform the review to obtain moderate assurance as to whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. A review is limited primarily to inquires of company personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial data and thus provides less assurance than an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Accordingly, I do not express such an audit opinion. The Company accounts for the investments in subsidiaries and associated companies by the equity method. The interim financial statements of certain associated companies, most of which are incorporated and operating in foreign countries, which were used as a basis for accounting for the investments under the equity method, had not been reviewed by the auditors. The reviewed interim financial statements of such associated companies are not required by their management. The investments in such associated companies as at March 31, 2000 amounted to approximately Baht 625 million which equivalent to 4.7% and 5.9% of total assets in consolidated balance sheets and the Company balance sheets, 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 March 31, 2000 and 1999 reported net income amounted to approximately Baht 20.7 million and Baht 31.7 million, which equivalent to 9.5% and 23.1% of net loss in consolidated interim financial statements and 9.7% and 21% of net loss in the Company interim financial statements for each period, respectively. - 2 - Based on my review, except for the effects on the consolidated interim financial statements and the interim financial statements for the three-month periods then ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 of such adjustments, if any, as might have been disclosed had we been able to review the interim financial statements of the associated companies as explained in the third paragraph, nothing has come to my attention that causes me to believe that the accompanying financial statements are not presented fairly, in all material respects, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. I have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1999 of Loxley Public Company Limited and consolidated financial statements of Loxley Public Company Limited and subsidiaries, and issues report dated February 18, 2000, expressing an qualified opinion on those statements that except for the effect of such adjustment, if any, as might have been required had the results of the audit of financial statements of certain associated companies been known. The investments in such associated companies at December 31, 1999 amounted to approximately Baht 207.3 million which is equivalent to 1.5% and 1.8% of total assets in the consolidated balance sheet and the Company balance sheet, respectively. The equity in results of operations of such associated companies which were included in the statement of income for the year ended December 31, 1999 amounted to net income of approximately Baht 94.3 million, which is equivalent to 11.6% and 12.2% of consolidated net loss and the Company net loss. The balance sheet as at December 31, 1999, presented herein for comparative purposes, are part of such audited financial statements. I have not performed any auditing procedures since that date. The financial statements and the consolidated financial statements for the three- month period then ended March 31, 2000 and for the year ended December 31, 1999 referred to above have been prepared in conformity with the accounting assumptions that the Company will continue as a going concern, which presumes the recoverability of assets and the repayment of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. However, because of certain events described in Note 2, there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The ability to continue as a going concern depends upon the success of the debt restructuring plan and the matters as described in Notes 2 and 6.13. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. VICHIEN THAMTRAKUL C.P.A.
