CHAIRMAN’S
STATEMENT

Group Performance Overview

The Group remained profitable in the financial year 2020


despite the challenging business climate arising from the
Covid-19 pandemic that is not only affecting Malaysia
but globally, with lockdowns of varying degrees imposed On behalf of the Board
by all affected countries. In Malaysia, all our outlets were
closed from mid-March 2020 until mid-May 2020 due to of Directors, it is my
the Movement Control Order (MCO), a preventive measure
imposed by the government of Malaysia in response to the
pleasure to present
pandemic. Subsequent re-opening of the outlets during
the Recovery phase of the MCO saw reduced crowds and
the Annual Report
controlled customer trolls in shopping malls. The retail
industry experienced significant downturn and our business
and the Audited
was similarly affected. Meanwhile, the government introduced
several economic stimulus packages which provided wage

subsidies, financial support for businesses and tax incentives
to alleviate the adverse impact, strengthening the economy
of Padini Holdings
and supporting consumer spending with attendant positive
impact for the retail industry.
Berhad and its
For the financial year under review, the Group recorded
subsidiaries (“Padini”
consolidated revenue of RM1.35 billion, which represented or “the Group”) for the
a decrease of 24% over the previous year’s revenue of
RM1.78 billion due to the drop in sales resulting from the financial year ended 30

revenue, profit before tax fell 51.1% to RM107 million from June 2020.
RM219 million in the previous year.

The following section on Management Discussion and


Analysis discusses in more detail on Padini’s performance
and the risks and challenges the Group is exposed to.

Future outlook

The uncertainty in the global economies, trade war, currency


volatility and the intensifying regional business competition
have made the operating environment very challenging
for most businesses even before the Covid-19 pandemic
outbreak. The still unresolved pandemic has put a pall to the
global economic recovery outlook. Despite early successes
of various countries in containing the pandemic, second
wave infections have disrupted business re-openings and
caused the re-imposition of partial lockdowns. Governments
worldwide are anticipated to continue with various additional
stimulus measures to mitigate the negative impact pending
the successful development of Covid-19 vaccines. Global
economic growth will depend on how these challenges are
addressed.

PADINI HOLDINGS BERHAD (197901005918 (50202-A)) AN N U AL REPORT 2020

Chairman’s Statement
(Cont’d)

The Group’s domestic operations continue to be the main driver of revenue and profits. Notwithstanding that the
government is anticipated to continue to implement the necessary measures to support the domestic economy
towards full recovery, given the uncertainties from the health crisis, the Group expects the outlook for the economy
for the remainder of 2020 and 2021 to be challenging. The Group continues to implement measures to control cost,
optimising working capital, preserving cash and streamlining its operations to minimise the adverse impact. In addition,
adapting to the new normal post pandemic leads to changes in consumer behavior, including in-store shopping and
digital retailing. Good understanding of consumer needs, ability to deliver value and speed-to-market will continue to
be critical success factors. These components have been ingrained into all areas of the marketing, merchandising
and supply chain of the Group. We have also placed increased focus on further developing digital retailing to reach
out to and extend the purchasing channels for the convenience of our customers and for future growth.

Compared to domestic operations, our overseas operations are relatively small. The Group will continue to monitor
the overseas markets for opportunities to increase our market presence in Asia, especially ASEAN countries.

Every crisis comes with profound challenges but there are also opportunities to set sights on greener pastures. With
all these in mind and given the consistent execution of the Group’s strategies to manage both the top and bottom
lines, the Group is cautiously optimistic of successfully navigating through the current crisis and deliver long term
value to shareholders.

Appreciation

On behalf of the Board of Directors, I wish to express my deepest appreciation to all our customers, shareholders,
suppliers, professional service providers, bankers and all other business associates for their continuous support and
trust. I would also like to thank my fellow Board members for their invaluable guidance and support to the Management.

Last but not least, I also want to acknowledge the hard work, dedication and commitment of employees across the
Group, ranging from stores staff to those working in our office and overseas operations. Their continued contributions
are key to our future success.

The Padini Group looks forward to being able to create more value for all the various stakeholders. May we continue
to work together and forge ahead to achieve sustainable growth and success.

MANAGEMENT
DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

The following management discussion and analysis is a review of the business and operation, discussion of the
financial results and condition, performance of operating segments, risk and uncertainties and future outlook of
Padini. This management discussion & analysis should be read in conjunction with the company’s audited financial
statements and the accompanying notes for the financial year ended 30 June 2020.

OVERVIEW OF THE GROUP’S BUSINESS AND OPERATION

Padini’s vision is to be the best fashion company ever in Malaysia and the region. Our mission is to exceed customers’
expectation and our brands’ promise. Forward planning, teamwork, resources and infrastructure development and
consistent execution of strategies are required to achieve the aforesaid vision and mission. With the key enablers
progressively put in place, the Group has continued to forge ahead notwithstanding the challenging economic
environment.

Retail has always been and will continue to be ever changing and evolving. Growing new customers is a good way
to grow and getting existing customer to return is the lifeblood of any business. Fashion retailers need to be ever
iridescent in the eyes of consumers, to attract and retain their interest and increase the traffic to our retail stores
and e-Commerce. As always, a good understanding of consumers’ needs and speed of delivery are the utmost
importance. The latest fashion trends need to be made available in store in the shortest time possible, at the right
price, before it loses its appeal. The question lies in who can execute this and execute it well, every time. Padini is
learning every day to improve the lead time in every step by improving the efficiency and processes.

In the aftermath of the pandemic, footfall in the shopping malls is impacted negatively and hence lesser shoppers
in our outlets. While we are confident on the longer term outlook, the immediate focus is on adapting to the change
of shopping behavior and meeting the customers’ needs; prudent cost management at all operational levels and
provide products that are good in value by increasing the efficiency throughout our value and supply chain.

Economies and societies are rapidly evolving. Moving to digital and finding the right online channel or distribution
in the retail industry is a key success factor in digital retailing. The rise in mobile internet usage has spurred in the
cashless revolution and digital retailing. A different shopping experience is evolving in Malaysia which had earlier
started in other countries. Cognisant of these developments, Padini will continue to leverage technology on our
business growth and setting business strategy. However, we believe fashion items appreciate the touch-n-feel and
brick and mortar is an important platform to create wonderful customer experience which cannot happen in the digital
world. We believe in working towards the direction that brick and mortar model and online retail model complement
each other to provide a richer shopping experience for our customers.

We anticipate Padini will be even stronger once the pandemic is controlled, supplemented by increasing contribution
from the e-Commerce channel in the years ahead.

FINANCIAL RESULTS AND BUSINESS REVIEW

For the financial year under review, considering the challenging business environment which was affected by the
health crisis and slowing down of the global economy, the Group remained profitable, recording consolidated revenue
of RM1.35 billion, representing a decrease of 24% over the previous year’s amount of RM1.78 billion. Gross profit
decreased by 23% in the current year under review. In line with the decline in revenue and gross profit, profit before
tax decreased by approximately RM111.9 million or 51.1% from the previous year’s RM219 million as a result of the
Covid-19 pandemic and the movement control order. Total comprehensive income for the financial year attributable
to the owners of the Company fell approximately 54.1% or RM88 million when compared to the amount of RM162.8
million achieved in the previous financial year.

Gross profit margin for the financial year has been maintained within the acceptable range of the Group. Generally,
margin for our group ranges from 38% to 42%. Margin moves up and down caused by many reasons including sales
mix, type of promotion, type of product offer for sales, varied purchase cost and so on.

FINANCIAL RESULTS AND BUSINESS REVIEW (Cont’d)

In addition, with the adoption of MFRS 16 Leases which took effect on 1 July 2019, higher depreciation on right-of-use
assets and recognition of interest expense on lease liabilities had reduced the profit before tax by RM17.0 million.
Interest expense on lease liabilities arising from the adoption of MFRS 16 Leases amounted to RM25.0 million. The
profit before tax would have been RM124.3 million without the adoption of MFRS 16.

Retailing – Domestic and Abroad

The Group’s domestic operations have continued to be the main driver of its revenues and profits, and garments,
shoes and fashion accessories remain the main products of the Group.

In the domestic market, our products are sold through the numerous retail stores, consignment counters and internal
and external online portal.

In the multi-brand Padini Concept Stores and single-brand stores, our products are carried under the following brand
names; Vincci, Vincci Accessories, Vincci Mini, Padini Authentics, PDI, Padini, Seed, Miki, and P&Co, all of which
are owned by the Group. All the aforementioned brands are widely known by Malaysian consumers and are easily
available in the major urban shopping malls in Malaysia. In addition to those, the Group also utilises a number of
house brands to market the value-for-money merchandise that it offers for sale in its Brands Outlet stores.

For the financial year under review, the individual performance of the five (5) trading subsidiaries are indicated in
the table below.

The decrease in the number of overseas franchisee stores managed by licensees was mainly due to expiry of contract

Own-managed overseas stores are still at the early stage of business growth and do not have significant financial
impact to the Group in the financial year 2020.

Domestic operations accounted for about 95.6% of the Group’s consolidated revenue in the financial year 2020,
compared to 95.5% in the financial year 2019. Group revenue had decreased by 24% or approximately RM428
million. In absolute value terms, sales generated from overseas markets had decreased by approximately RM20
million from that recorded in the financial year 2019, mainly resulted from the drop in sales of franchisees.

FINANCIAL RESULTS AND BUSINESS REVIEW (Cont’d)

Digital platform

We embarked on the e-Commerce journey since the end of 2015 and building from zero base with the objective to have
a marketing channel ready to meet our customers’ needs at the appropriate time. The recent catastrophic pandemic
impact brought by the Covid-19 has accelerated and transformed this business platform to a new era. Introducing
the product features via Facebook live cast and Instagram are some of the important channels. Padini Group has
started our own Facebook live to introduce our products and hence selling our products in our own Facebook in May
2020. We have also started selling our products in Lazada platform. We are also exploring to engage more online
portals to sell our products. While the sales contribution is minimal as compared to the Group revenue, this is an
essential progression for regional expansion and bringing Padini into another level.

Café Operation

Arising from the desire to optimise operation costs efficiency and the decision to control the number of visitors to
head quarter office to minimise the impact from Covid-19, the Group had closed café operations located at Glenmarie
office since July 2020.

Financial Position Review

Non-current assets of the Group increased by RM484.4 million, mainly due to the recognition of right-of-use (“ROU”)
assets as a result of the adoption of MFRS 16 Leases which took effect on 1 July 2019. In view of this, the Group’s
non-current liabilities has also increased by RM431.4 million with the classification of lease liabilities.

Liquidity Indicators

As at 30.6.2020 As at 30.6.2019
Liquidity ratio 4.01 3.92
Acid test ratio 2.58 2.58
Interest bearing borrowings RM2.5 million RM24 million
Shareholders’ funds RM766 million RM740 million
Gearing ratio 0.33% 3.23%

Liquidity ratio attempts to measure Group’s ability to pay off its short-term debt obligations. This is done by comparing
Group’s current assets with its short-term liabilities. For a healthy and financially sound company, its acid test should
exceed 1. It means that the current assets are not highly dependent on inventories and the Group has the ability to
pay their current liabilities as and when needed.

The Group has healthy liquidity indicators for both the financial years under review. Both liquidity ratios and acid
test ratios indicate healthy cash reserve position and have improved over the year. The Group has been keeping
relatively low level of liabilities for both the financial years under review and the gearing ratio has improved from 3%
to 0.3% in the current financial year under review.

Capital Management

There was no change in the share capital of the Company during the financial year. There was no major capital
investment during the financial year, other than as disclosed in Note 5 to the financial statements for the capital
expenditure incurred during the financial year.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The Group’s business activities, operations, financial results and growth prospects are subject to the risks and
uncertainties in the market place that it operates. There are inherent risks arising from unfavorable changes in general
economic and business condition and rising costs that could result in outcomes differing from the planned result.

The following risks are not exhaustive and there may be other risks which are not known to the Group. The risks and
uncertainties that could potentially have an impact on the information disclosed are difficult to predict.

Economy uncertainty

The outlook for the domestic economy is projected to be challenging in 2020 and 2021. The worldwide economy is
impacted by the outbreak of Covid-19, and it is unpredictable as to when the situation could be stabilised and how
long it needs to rebound to market condition pre outbreak of Covid-19. In addition, the impact on consumer spending
will very much depend on the delicate balancing act of the Government in supporting the people via financial aids,
aside to control the budget deficit versus the aim to put more disposable income into the hands of the rakyat in the
face of global uncertainties. Market confidence and employment are the important elements in spending level and
spending pattern.

Trading condition is expected to remain uncertain and challenging for retailers for the second half of 2020 and 2021.
Downside risks include aftermath of Covid-19, rising trade war tensions, tighter global financial conditions and
uncertainty over the government‘s fiscal situation. There will be lingering concerns over unemployment, recession,
rising cost of living and its impact on consumer sentiment as consumers remain cautious and selective in their spending.

The Group seeks to limit these risks through, among others, prudent management policies, continuous review and
evaluation of the Group’s operation and strategies, close working relationships with the stakeholders, continuous
quality customer services, human resource development and technology upgrades.

The direction of our business will continue to focus on offering more value for money clothing and accessories to all
levels of income group. We believe affordable clothing will continue to be a necessity.

Competition

Other than local economic and social developments, apparel players in Malaysia are also impacted by penetration of
international players, which is the trend of borderless trading that promotes free trade among countries. International
players may have greater resources and business models that provide a better shopping experience. Competition
emerges in many ways; product quality, price comparison, product variety and speed of delivery of trendy apparel
to market and product life cycle and distribution channels. This is the era that consumer has higher expectation on
what a company is able to deliver, quality, value proposition, convenience, newness and innovation.

Fashion industry is also evolving into an important phase of digital adoption by the consumer, the continuous growth
of e-Commerce leading to changes in consumer consumption patterns. Incorporating technology into brand can be
a powerful marketing tool in driving consumer habits. The availability of technology and the myriad of choices and
information at the consumers’ disposal have made it even more challenging for retailers to stay relevant to their
customers. With the ease of reaching out information at consumers’ fingertips, consumers are becoming less brand
loyal. Consumers will switch brands when there are offers with better price and better value.

The country’s competitive retail landscape is also witnessing signs of consolidation while at the same time, addition of
new retail space as well as continuous transformation and modernisation of retail formats happen. Shopping landscape
has changed from heavily on traditional business model, to a complex journey across online and offline touchpoints.
Spending habit and purchase decision of consumer have also been greatly affected by new communication channels,
especially social media, video streaming and peer reviews.

Supply Chain Capabilities and Performance

It is very important to have a robust supply chain for the Group to ensure good number of product varieties, good
quality of products and speedy supply. Poor management in this area is a big risk to the survival of the Group.

Beside keeping good relationship with existing good suppliers, sourcing new suppliers that are capable of meeting
our requirements is also one of the important key performance indicator for our Sourcing department. Basic factors
to consider while sourcing new suppliers include pricing, quality, lead time, quality workmanship, production capacity
and suppliers’ ethical operation. The Group also further evaluate the environment, social and governance footprint
of the supplier, such as ethical labour practices, sustainability of material used and production line.

Poor supply chain performance can lead to many problems that deteriorate profit and detrimental to the reputation
of the Group. This includes insufficiency and discontinuity of best seller products, keeping excessive inventory,
inefficient logistics arrangement and poor sourcing choices. This is a continuous effort and the performance is
reviewed on regular basis.

DIVIDENDS

In respect of the financial year under review, the following dividends were declared and paid:

• a first interim dividend of 2.5 sen per ordinary share (single tier) amounting to RM16,447,737.24 for the financial
year ended 30 June 2020 that was declared on 27 August 2019 and was paid on 30 September 2019.
• a second interim dividend of 2.5 sen per ordinary share (single tier) amounting to RM16,447,737.11 for the
financial year ended 30 June 2020 that was declared on 27 November 2019 and was paid on 31 December
2019.
• a third interim dividend of 2.5 sen per ordinary share (single tier) amounting to RM16,447,737.11 for the financial
year ended 30 June 2020 that was declared on 26 February 2020 and was paid on 30 March 2020.

The Board does not intend to establish a fixed dividend policy at this point of time. The Board strives to provide
consistent dividend streams to shareholders whilst ensuring to retain flexibility of cash flows to meet its business
operation needs as well as its expansion plan.

FORWARD- LOOKING STATEMENT

Due to the difficulties in predicting the financial impacts of the risks and uncertainties on the business, the Group
undertakes no obligation to publicly update any of the forward-looking statements in the event that any unforeseen
circumstances arise which might affect them.

In tandem with the global environment, the year ahead will be an arduous journey riddled with uncertainties in all
aspects, as the direction of global economy is uncertain and unpredictable.

Locally, business in Malaysia is expected to be challenging because of the uncertain economic impact arising
from the Covid-19 pandemic. The Group remains optimistic on the long-term sustainability of the business and are
focusing our effort to further rationalise the retail business by optimising the working capital and measures to control
the operating costs while extending and exploring various sales channels.

For the new financial year, we have not finalised any plan on new store opening or closures in Malaysia, Cambodia
and Thailand. We will actively monitor the market condition and evaluate our business strategy on regular basis to
maximise the returns.

FORWARD- LOOKING STATEMENT (Cont’d)

To maintain, if not be better than we are now, our merchandising, pricing and promotional strategies will continue to
be focused on being relevant to our customers; concentration will still be on design, quality and affordability, where
we strive to bring the best value to our customers in the shortest time-to-market possible. The latest fashion trends
need to be made available in store in the shortest time possible, at the right price, before it loses its appeal.

Whilst we are still very much centered on the brick and mortar business, a lot of effort has been put in to grow our
online business by increasing the awareness of our products in our online channels and improve the infrastructure
for e-Commerce. Developing new online shopping experience and enhance shopping convenience to our consumer
is a continuous effort of the e-Commerce division. We believe digital retailing of the Group will bring positive impact
to the Group both as a complementary business channel and for future growth.

While we are not expecting major contribution from the stores in Cambodia and Thailand in the financial year 2021,
we envisage the Group will grow stronger and bigger along with the expansion in ASEAN region together with the
online business in the long term.

1.3 Composition, Independence and Diversity of the Board

There are currently altogether nine members in the Board, comprising six Executive Directors and three
Independent Non-Executive Directors. The current Board composition complies with the Listing Requirements
but departed from MCCG in which the Board comprises a majority independent directors. A brief profile of each
Board member is as set out in the Annual Report 2020 “Profile of Directors”.

There is a clear division of responsibility between the Chairman and the Managing Director to ensure that there
is a balance of power and authority, such that no one individual has unfettered powers of decision-making. The
position of Chairman is held by Chia Swee Yuen, an Independent Non-Executive Director, while the position
of Managing Director is held by Yong Pang Chaun. The Chairman is responsible in leading the Board in its
collective oversight of Management whilst the Managing Director is responsible to implement the policies and
strategies approved by the Board for the purposes of running the business and the day-to-day management
of the Group.

In promoting diversity, gender and opportunities, the Board, on the recommendation of the Nominating and
Remuneration Committee (“NRC”), has adopted a Diversity Policy on the Board and workforce of the Group.
The Board, via the NRC conducts regular reviews of its composition with the aim to ensure it achieves a diverse
Board which is able to unearth a breadth of perspectives. The Group takes into account the benefits of having
different facets of diversity including gender, professional background, skills and experience in sourcing for
suitable candidates for its Board. In appointing an appropriate individual to the Board, the NRC considers
and recommends to the Board the suitable candidate after evaluating the candidate’s skills, knowledge,
competencies, expertise and experience, time commitment, professionalism, integrity and diversity.

In line with the Government’s aspiration to have at least 30% women representation in decision-making positions
of Malaysian public companies, the Company currently has 3 female members on the Board, representing
33% of the total Board Members. The Group also ensures diversity in its management level by having strong
female representation at the management level which could potentially be a pipeline for future candidates to
be appointed as Directors or Senior Management.

The Board has upon their assessment on the contributions of Foo Kee Fatt, who has served as an Independent
Director of the Group for more than nine years, concluded that the length of service does not in any way interfere
with the exercise of independent judgement and recommending him to carry out his professional duties as an
Independent Director in the best interest of the Group and shareholders.

The Board is further supported by two (2) qualified and competent Group Secretaries. The Group Secretaries
manage the logistics of all Board, Board Committees and the group subsidiaries meetings and ensures accurate
and proper records of the proceedings and resolutions passed, are maintained in the statutory records at
the registered office of the Group. The Group Secretaries regularly update and appraise the Board on new
regulations issued by the regulatory authorities.

1.4 Board Committees

To ensure the effectiveness in discharging its duties and responsibilities, the Board has delegated its power
to the relevant Board Committees such as the Audit Committee (“AC”) and the Nominating and Remuneration
Committee (“NRC”). Each committee operates its functions within their approved terms of reference by the
Board which are reviewed by the Board as and when necessary.

PRINCIPLE B: EFFECTIVE AUDIT AND RISK MANAGEMENT

1. AUDIT COMMITTEE

The Audit Committee was established by the Board to provide assistance to the Board of Directors in overseeing
the financial reporting process, monitoring the accuracy and integrity of the Group’s annual and quarterly
financial statements. The Audit Committee also reviews and evaluates the performance of external audit and
internal audit in ensuring efficiency and effectiveness of the Group’s operation, adequacy of internal control
system, compliance with established policies and procedures, transparency in decision-making process and
accountability of financial and management information.

The Group’s current Audit Committee is made up of three independent Non-Executive Directors. The Chairman
of the Audit Committee is Foo Kee Fatt, an Independent Non-Executive Director, and is not the Chairman
of the Board so as not to impair the objectivity of the Board’s view of the Audit Committee’s findings and
recommendations.

Please refer to the Audit Committee Report for further details.

2. RISK MANAGEMENT AND INTERNAL CONTROL

The Board acknowledges that risk management is an integral part of good management practices. The Board
has in place risk management and internal control systems which enables Management to identify, assess,
prioritise and manage risks on a continuous and systematic basis.

The Group’s risk management and internal control systems are designed to meet the Group’s particular
needs, to efficiently and effectively manage risks that may impede the achievement of the Group’s business
objectives, and to provide information for accurate reporting and ensure compliances with regulatory and
statutory requirements. This system, by its nature, can only provide reasonable but not absolute assurance
against material misstatement, fraud or loss. Any major changes to risks or emerging significant risk of the
business units in the Group together with the appropriate actions and/or strategies to be taken, will be brought

STATEMENT ON RISK MANAGEMENT


AND INTERNAL CONTROL

The main features and the adequacy of Padini Group’s risk management and internal control system, hereinafter
referred to as “the System”, are primarily guided by the objective that the System is meant to accomplish, and that is
to assure that the achievement of the Group’s strategic and operational goals is done within an environment where
losses and liabilities arising from risks, uncertainty and random events can be minimised, protected against and
even avoided altogether.

The Group carried out a major review of the risk management process and implemented the new ERM framework
in the financial year 2018. To operationalise the new ERM system, a week-long risk management programme was
held. This included whole day training for directors and workshop for all the managers from different functions and
divisions. The ERM framework that the Group adopts consists of six (6) elements, which is in line with globally accepted
risk management standards. (i.e.ISO31000:2018). Periodic discussions are held internally with each division and
the consolidated risk register and action plans are updated accordingly. The updated consolidated risk register and
major matters are then discussed at the Board meetings.

The six (6) elements are:

eadership and commitment: Top management and oversight bodies


L
(e.g. Risk Management Committee (“RMC”)) should demonstrate
Integration leadership and commitment and ensure that risk management is
integrated into all organisation activities.

Integration: Risk management should be a part of, and not separate


Improvement from, the organisational purpose, governance, leadership and
Design
commitment, strategy, objectives and operations.
Leadership and
Commitment
Design: This comprises understanding the Group and its context,
articulating risk management commitment, assigning organisational
roles, authorities, responsibilities and accountabilities, allocating
Evaluation
Implementation resources and establishing communication and consultation.

Implementation: This comprises developing a plan, identifying where,


when and how different types of decisions are made, modifying
decision-making processes where necessary, and ensuring the Group’s
arrangements for managing risks are understood and practised.

Evaluation: The Group shall periodically measure risk management framework performance against its purpose,
implementation plans, indicators and expected behaviour, and determine whether it remains suitable to support
achieving the objectives of the Group.

Improvement: The Group shall continually monitor and adapt the risk management framework to address external
and internal changes. As relevant gaps or improvement opportunities are identified, the Group shall develop plans
and tasks and assign them to those accountable for implementation.

Our risk assessment process is as follows:

• Define processes/ activities/ objectives


• Determine risk parameter
• Identify risk
• Determine cause
• Determine consequences
• Determine likelihood
• Determine gross risk rating
• Identify controls
• Determine control effectiveness
• Challenge/ Revise ratings
• Determine current residual risk rating
• Develop risk profile
• Risk treatment

Statement on Risk Management and Internal Control


(Cont’d)

A Risk Appetite Statement that articulates the levels and types of risk the Group is willing to accept in the pursuit of
its value or meet its strategic objectives is then developed and adopted.

The internal audit form an integral part of the risk management process and assists the Board to assess that the
system of internal controls is in place and relevant for the Group’s business. As such, the internal audit function is
involved in reviewing the adequacy and operating effectiveness of the internal control processes and risk practices,
and validating the results of these processes/practices.

The last internal audit plan covering the period from 2018 to 2020 and involving 8 auditable areas whose risk impact
have been assessed as between medium to high, was proposed to the Audit Committee by the internal auditors
in August 2018. The internal audit plan was subsequently tabled and adopted by the Audit Committee. The Audit
Committee has subsequently reviewed the audit plan on an annual basis, with changes made where required in line
with the current developments. The internal audit has proposed a new audit plan covering the period from 2020 to
2022 in August 2020.

As a matter of practice, the internal auditor engages with our managers and executives to find out about the policies
and practices already in place for a selected process, performs tests, determines the adequacy and effectiveness
of existing controls, and then presents a summary of observations requiring remedial measures together with
recommendations for improvement to management for their response. Subsequent to management’s response, an
audit report is prepared and forwarded to the Audit Committee for consideration and deliberation with the internal
auditors in attendance.

Acting on the audit report and the responses and opinions given by the internal auditor and management, the Audit
Committee is then ready to bring the pertinent risk management or internal control issues to the Board for further
consideration. Where the internal auditor’s recommendations have not been adopted, the Board then seeks to satisfy
itself that the alternative policies or processes adopted are appropriate for strategic or practical reasons specific to
the business activity in question, and that there is sufficient oversight over the alternatives used so that risks can be
minimised. Where management agrees to implement the internal auditor’s recommendations, the Audit Committee
and the Board then seeks a time-line for adoption and keeps themselves apprised of the progress of the process
of adoption.

On the matter of internal control, especially in relation to risks of financial loss arising from fraud, collusion and/or
negligence, currently the activities of the Group, except for the payroll function, are controlled and monitored via an
enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) solution provided by SAP. All activities involving the procurement of assets
(whether for trade or otherwise), and contracting for services, are all documented and recorded according to the
protocols of the said ERP, which in most cases involve various duties performed separately and in rigid sequence
by several persons attached to various departments. The underlying principle at work here is that the party that
initiates an order for procurement must not be the one who will receive the items later on directly from the suppliers.
A disinterested third party is tasked to receive such items, acknowledge the receipt and proceed to record the
transaction into the system. In addition to that, where practicable, at least one more other party would be inserted
between the one who initiated a procurement and the one who would receive the items procured.

Overall, a review of the system of risk management and internal control already in place showed that it is both
adequate and effective in managing the business risks faced as well as the risk of fraudulent behaviours. The internal
audit function has always been properly instituted and is progressive in keeping with the developments and changing
needs of the Group’s business as it grows. The employees, including management, of the Group are subject to the
activities of the internal audit function and are aware of the objectives of risk management and the need for the various
checks and balances put in place to achieve effective internal control. The Group also has in place a formal code of
conduct and whistle-blowing policy, both of which has been widely disseminated to the employees. A summary of
the code of conduct and the whistle-blowing policy are posted on Padini’s corporate website.

Report from the Internal Auditors

Our internal auditors, Baker Tilly Monterio Heng Governance Sdn Bhd, have carried out and completed the internal
audit review based on the Internal Audit Plan approved by the Audit Committee. The results of the internal audit
review were satisfactory, having found no major control weaknesses which may pose significant risk exposures to
the Group’s operations during the financial year under review. The internal auditors have also carried out subsequent
follow up review on the agreed action plans, which has been commented and agreed by the management to address
the relevant findings highlighted in the internal audit reports, and noted that most of the agreed action plans have
been/are being implemented.

Review of the statement by Statutory Auditors

As required by paragraph 15.23 of the Main Market Listing Requirements of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad, the
Statutory Auditors have reviewed the Statement on Risk Management and Internal Control. The limited assurance
review was performed in accordance with Malaysia Approved Standard on Assurance Engagements, ISAE 3000
(Revised) Assurance Engagements Other than Audits or Reviews of Historical Financial Information and Audit and
Assurance Practice Guide 3 (“AAPG3”) Guidance for Auditors on Engagements to Report on the Statement on Risk
Management and Internal Control included in the Annual Report issued by the Malaysian Institute of Accountants
(“MIA”) and procedures have been performed to assess whether the Statement on Risk Management and Internal
Control is both supported by the documentation prepared by or for the Directors and appropriately reflects the
processes the Directors have adopted.

AAPG 3 does not require the Statutory Auditors to consider whether this Statement on Risk Management and
Internal Control covers all risk and controls, or to form an opinion on the adequacy and effectiveness of the risk
management and internal control system of the Group including the assessment and opinion by the Board of
Directors and management thereon. Based on their procedures performed, the Statutory Auditors have reported to
the Board of Directors that nothing has come to their attention which causes them to believe that this Statement on
Risk Management and Internal Control is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the disclosures
required by paragraphs 41 and 42 of the Statement on Risk Management and Internal Control: Guidelines for Directors
of Listed Issuers to be set out, nor is factually inaccurate.

Conclusion

In the Board of Directors’ meeting held on 24 September 2020, the Managing Director and Chief Financial Officer
have given the assurance to the Board that the risk management and internal control system currently in place is
adequate and effective for the Group.

OTHER STATUTORY INFORMATION REGARDING THE GROUP AND THE COMPANY

(I) AS AT THE END OF THE FINANCIAL YEAR

(a) Before the financial statements of the Group and of the Company were prepared, the Directors took
reasonable steps:

(i) to ascertain that proper action had been taken in relation to the writing off of bad debts and the
making of provision for doubtful debts and had satisfied themselves that all known bad debts had
been written off and that provision need not be made for doubtful debts; and

(ii) to ensure that any current assets other than debts, which were unlikely to realise their book values
in the ordinary course of business had been written down to their estimated realisable values.

(b) In the opinion of the Directors, the results of the operations of the Group and of the Company during the
financial year have not been substantially affected by any item, transaction or event of a material and
unusual nature, except for the impact arising from the COVID-19 pandemic as disclosed in Note 39 to
the financial statements.

(II) FROM THE END OF THE FINANCIAL YEAR TO THE DATE OF THIS REPORT

(c) The Directors are not aware of any circumstances:

(i) which would render the amount written off for bad debts inadequate to any material extent or
necessitate the making of provision for doubtful debts in the financial statements of the Group
and of the Company;

(ii) which would render the values attributed to current assets in the financial statements of the Group
and of the Company misleading; and

(iii) which have arisen which would render adherence to the existing method of valuation of assets or
liabilities of the Group and of the Company misleading or inappropriate.

(d) In the opinion of the Directors:

(i) there has not arisen any item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature likely to affect
substantially the results of the operations of the Group and of the Company for the financial year
in which this report is made; and

INDEPENDENT
AUDITORS’ REPORT
To the members of Padini Holdings Berhad
(Incorporated in Malaysia)

REPORT ON THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Padini Holdings Berhad, which comprise the statements of financial
position as at 30 June 2020 of the Group and of the Company, and the statements of profit or loss and other
comprehensive income, statements of changes in equity and statements of cash flows of the Group and of the
Company for the financial year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant
accounting policies, as set out on pages 52 to 115.

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Group
and of the Company as at 30 June 2020, and of their financial performance and their cash flows for the financial
year then ended in accordance with Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards (“MFRSs”), International Financial
Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”) and the requirements of the Companies Act 2016 in Malaysia.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia and International Standards
on Auditing (“ISAs”). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities
for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained
is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Independence and Other Ethical Responsibilities

We are independent of the Group and of the Company in accordance with the By-Laws (on Professional Ethics,
Conduct and Practice) of the Malaysian Institute of Accountants (“By-Laws”) and the International Ethics Standards
Board for Accountants’ International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence
Standards) (“IESBA Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the By-Laws
and the IESBA Code.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the
financial statements of the Group and of the Company for the current financial year. These matters were addressed
in the context of our audit of the financial statements of the Group and of the Company as a whole, and in forming
our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

1. Inventories written down and inventories written off

As at 30 June 2020, inventories of the Group were RM273,870,000. The details of the inventories have been
disclosed in Note 13 to the financial statements. During the financial year, there were inventories written down
and inventories written off recognised as cost of sales of RM7,859,000 and RM1,963,000 respectively.

Writing down and writing off of slow moving and obsolete inventories to their net realisable values are mainly
based on management estimates, which have been derived from expectations on current market prices and
future demand of which different expectations would impact the carrying amounts of the inventories and if not
accounted for properly, may lead to the valuation of inventories being misstated. We have focused on this
area as a key audit matter as this involves significant judgments and high degree of estimation uncertainty.

Independent Auditors’ Report


To the members of Padini Holdings Berhad
(Incorporated in Malaysia)
(Cont’d)

Key Audit Matters (continued)

1. Inventories written down and inventories written off (continued)

Audit response

Our audit procedures, with the involvement of component auditors, included the following:

a. obtained an understanding of the process implemented by management over the determination of lower
of cost and net realisable value used in the write down of slow moving inventories;

b. tested the reliability of the inventories ageing report by seasons;

c. analysed and assessed the inventories ageing by brands, seasons or periods prepared by management
in determining slow moving and obsolete inventories, which have been derived from expectations of
current market prices and future demand, including the impact arising from the COVID-19 pandemic;
and

d. ascertained inventories were stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value by verifying actual
margins and testing the selling prices of inventories sold from sales invoices subsequent to the end of
the reporting period.

2. First-time adoption of MFRS 16 Leases

The Group adopted MFRS 16 for the first-time during the financial year ended 30 June 2020 as disclosed in
Note 37.1 to the financial statements.

We determined this to be a key audit matter because it requires management to exercise significant judgements
to specific assumptions applied in determining right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. The specific assumptions
include the determination of appropriate discount rates and assessment of lease terms, including renewal and
termination options of the leases.

Audit response

Our audit procedures, with the involvement of component auditors, included the following:

a. obtained an understanding of the procedures and processes in relation to the assessment by the
management on the MFRS 16 transition impact;

b. assessed the appropriateness of the discount rates applied in determining lease liabilities based on the
lease contracts and relevant inputs;

c. assessed the appropriateness of the assumptions applied in determining the lease terms of the lease
liabilities, including renewal and termination options of the leases; and

d. verified the accuracy of the underlying lease data by agreeing a representative sample of leases to
original contracts or other supporting information.

We have determined that there are no key audit matters to communicate in our report in respect of the audit
of the financial statements of the Company.

Information Other than the Financial Statements and Auditors’ Report Thereon

The Directors of the Company are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the
information included in the annual report, but does not include the financial statements of the Group and of the
Company and our auditors’ report thereon.

Our opinion on the financial statements of the Group and of the Company does not cover the other information and
we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements of the Group and of the Company, our responsibility is to
read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the
financial statements of the Group and of the Company or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears
to be materially misstated.

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information,
we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Statements

The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of financial statements of the Group and of the
Company that give a true and fair view in accordance with MFRSs, IFRSs and the requirements of the Companies
Act 2016 in Malaysia. The Directors are also responsible for such internal control as the Directors determine is
necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements of the Group and of the Company that are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements of the Group and of the Company, the Directors are responsible for assessing
the ability of the Group and of the Company to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related
to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Directors either intend to liquidate the
Group or the Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements of the Group and of the
Company as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’
report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that
an audit conducted in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia and ISAs will always detect a
material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if,
individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users
taken on the basis of these financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia and ISAs, we exercise professional
judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

(a) Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements of the Group and of the
Company, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks,
and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not
detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may
involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

(b) Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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
internal control of the Group and of the Company.

(c) Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates
and related disclosures made by the Directors.

Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements (continued)

As part of an audit in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia and ISAs, we exercise professional
judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also (continued):

(d) Conclude on the appropriateness of the Directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based
on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that
may cast significant doubt on the ability of the Group or of the Company to continue as a going concern. If
we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors’ report to the
related disclosures in the financial statements of the Group and of the Company or, if such disclosures are
inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date
of our auditors’ report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group or the Company to cease
to continue as a going concern.

(e) Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements of the Group and of the
Company, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements of the Group and of the Company
represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

(f) Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business
activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial statements of the Group. We are responsible
for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit
opinion.

We communicate with the Directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and
significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide the Directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding
independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to
bear on our independence, and where applicable, actions taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied.

From the matters communicated with the Directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in
the audit of the financial statements of the Group and of the Company for the current year and are therefore the key
audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure
about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated
in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public
interest benefits of such communication.

Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements

In accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2016 in Malaysia, we report that the subsidiaries of which
we have not acted as auditors, are disclosed in Note 9 to the financial statements.

Other Matters

This report is made solely to the members of the Company, as a body, in accordance with Section 266 of the
Companies Act 2016 in Malaysia and for no other purpose. We do not assume responsibility to any other person
for the content of this report.

4. OPERATING SEGMENTS

The Company and its subsidiaries are principally engaged in the retailing of garments industry.

The Group has arrived at three (3) reportable segments, as described below, which are the strategic business
units of the Group. For management purposes, the Group is organised into business units based on their
products and services. For each of the strategic business units, the Managing Director and Executive Directors
of the Group collectively (the “Chief Operating Decision Maker” or “CODM”) of the Group review internal
management reports at least on a quarterly basis.

i) Investment holding

Holding of investment in shares of the subsidiaries.

ii) Apparels and footwear

Promoting and marketing fashionable apparels, footware and accessories.

iii) Management service

Provision of management services.

Other non-reportable segments comprise operations related to café and investment property holding.

The performance of the reportable segments are measured based on segment profit before tax.

consolidated financial statements. These policies have been applied consistently throughout the current and
previous financial years.

Segment results, assets and liabilities include items directly attributable to a segment. Segment capital
expenditure is the total costs incurred during the period to acquire segment assets that are expected to be
used for more than one year.

5. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT (continued)

(a) All items of property, plant and equipment are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, property,
plant and equipment except for freehold land and capital work in progress are stated at cost less any
accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.

Depreciation is calculated to write off the cost of the assets to their residual values on a straight line basis
over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives represent common life expectancies applied
in the industry within which the Group operates. The principal depreciation periods are as follows:

Buildings on freehold land 50 years


Building on leasehold land 25 years
Motor vehicles 5 years
Furniture and fixtures 3 - 5 years
Office equipment and tools 4 - 5 years

Freehold land has unlimited useful life and is not depreciated. Capital work in progress is stated at cost
and is not depreciated until such time when the asset is available for use.

(b) In the previous financial year, the Group has reversed a net impairment loss of RM497,000 on a building on
leasehold land to its recoverable amount based on a valuation performed by an external and independent
property valuer.

(c) During the financial year, the Group and the Company made the following cash payments to purchase
property, plant and equipment:

6. RIGHT-OF-USE ASSETS AND LEASE LIABILITIES (continued)

The Group as lessee (continued)

6.1 Right-of-use assets (continued)

(a) The right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost, which comprise the initial amount of the
lease liabilities adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date of
the leases.

After initial recognition, right-of-use assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and
any accumulated impairment losses, and adjusted for any re-measurement of the lease liabilities.

The right-of-use assets are depreciated on the straight-line basis over the earlier of the estimated
useful lives of the right-of-use assets or the end of the lease term. The lease terms of right-of-use
assets are as follows:

Retail shop, signage and storage spaces 2 - 11 years


Apartment 1.5 - 3 years
Office equipment 2 - 4.5 years
Renovation cost 2 - 5 years
Motor vehicles 2 - 5 years

(b) The Group has certain leases of retail shop, signage and storage spaces with lease term of 12
months or less, and low value leases of office equipment of RM20,000 and below. The Group
applies the “short-term lease” and “lease of low-value assets” exemptions for these leases.

(c) The following are the amounts recognised in profit or loss:

The Group as lessee (continued)

6.1 Right-of-use assets (continued)

(d) Certain lease rentals are subject to variable lease payments, which are determined based on a
percentage of sales generated from outlets.

The Group has entered into tenancy agreements for the lease of retail shop, signage and storage
spaces, which contain variable lease payments based on predetermined revenue thresholds.
The Group has determined that these contingent features are not embedded derivatives to be
separately accounted for due to the economic characteristics and risk of these contingent rental
features are closely related to the economic characteristics and risk of the underlying tenancy
agreements. There are no leverage features contained within these contingent rental features.

(e) During the financial year, the Group made the following cash payments to purchase right-of-use
assets:

Group

(c) The Group determines the lease term of a lease as the non-cancellable period of the lease, together
with periods covered by an option to extend or to terminate the lease if the Group is reasonably
certain to exercise the relevant option. Management exercises significant judgement in determining
whether these extension options are reasonably certain to be exercised. Management has
considered the relevant facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive for the Group
to either exercise the option to extend the lease, or to exercise the option to terminate the lease.
Any differences in expectations from the original estimates would impact the carrying amounts of
the lease liabilities of the Group.

(d) The following table sets out the carrying amount, the weighted average incremental borrowing
rates and the remaining maturities of the lease liabilities of the Group that are exposed to interest
rate risk:

8. INVESTMENT PROPERTY (continued)

(a) Investment property is initially measured at cost, which includes transaction costs. After initial recognition,
investment property is measured at fair value, which reflects market conditions at the end of the reporting
period and changes in fair value are included in profit or loss.

Workshop – 5,270 – 5,270

(i) There is no transfer between levels in the hierarchy during the financial year.

(ii) Investment property at Level 2 fair value was determined by an external and independent property
valuer, who is a member of The Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors. The professional valuer has
adopted the comparison approach and made reference to relevant comparable transactions in
the market. The valuation had resulted in a fair value loss of RM730,000 (2019: fair value gain of
RM85,000) to the Group to reflect its fair value of RM4,750,000 or equivalent to HKD8,570,000
(2019: RM5,270,000 or equivalent to HKD9,920,000).

(iii) The fair value measurement of the investment property is based on the highest and best use,
which does not differ from their actual use.

(a) Investments in subsidiaries, which are eliminated on consolidation, are stated in separate financial
statements of the Company at cost less impairment losses, if any.

All components of non-controlling interests shall be measured at their acquisition-date fair values,
unless another measurement basis is required by MFRSs. The choice of measurement basis is made
on a combination-by-combination basis. Subsequent to initial recognition, the carrying amount of non-
controlling interests is the amount of those interests at initial recognition plus the non-controlling interests’
shares of subsequent changes in equity.

consideration of RM16,062,500 (equivalent to HK$29,050,638) by way of capitalising the amount
of RM16,062,500 owing by PIL to the Company.

(ii) In the previous financial year, Padini Thailand allotted 139,900 new shares to the existing
shareholders in proportion to their shareholdings. The Company subscribed for additional 1,399
new shares of Padini Thailand at a consideration of RM178,636 (equivalent to THB1,399,750).

On 17 April 2019, Padini Dot Com, its wholly-owned subsidiary acquired 7,000 shares of Padini
Thailand at THB1,000 each from a non-controlling interest at a total consideration of RM933,170

10. OTHER INVESTMENTS (continued)

(a) The equity security is classified as financial asset at fair value through other comprehensive income
whereas the club memberships are classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.

(b) The fair value of unquoted shares in Malaysia is estimated based on the price to book valuation model.
Management obtained the industry price to book ratio from observable market data, discounted the price
to book ratio for illiquidity, and multiplied the discounted price to book ratio with the book value per share
of the investee to derive the estimated fair value. Management believes that the estimated fair value
resulting from this valuation model is reasonable and the most appropriate at the end of each reporting
period.

The fair values for club memberships are estimated based on references to current available counter

(f) The Group holds a forty percent (40%) interest in Cassardi Corporation Sdn. Bhd. (“Casardi”) for which
the Group has determined that it does not hold significant influence over Cassardi as:

(i) The Group does not have any representative on the board of directors of Cassardi, and is therefore
unable to participate in policy-making process of Cassardi;
(ii) There are no material transactions between the Group and Cassardi; and
(iii) There is no interchange of managerial personnel and provision of essential technical information
between the Group and Cassardi.

Based on this, the Group considers that it does not have the power to exercise significant influence and
has treated its interest in Cassardi as a simple investment in unquoted shares in Malaysia.

(f) Impairment for amounts due from subsidiaries are recognised based on general approach within MFRS
9 using the forward looking expected credit loss model. The methodology used to determine the amount
of the impairment is based on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial
recognition of the financial asset. For those in which the credit risk has not increased significantly since
initial recognition of the financial asset, twelve months expected credit losses along with gross interest
income are recognised. For those in which credit risk has increased significantly, lifetime expected
credit losses along with the gross interest income are recognised. As at the end of the reporting period,
the Company assesses whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk for financial assets
by comparing the risk for default occurring over the expected life with the risk of default since initial
recognition. For those that are determined to be credit impaired, lifetime expected credit losses along
with interest income on a net basis are recognised.

The Company defined significant increase in credit risk based on the operating performance of the
receivables, payment trends and past due information.

The probability of non-payment by the subsidiaries is adjusted by forward looking information and
multiplied by the amount of the expected loss arising from default to determine the twelve months or
lifetime expected credit loss for the subsidiaries.

No expected credit loss is recognised arising from amounts due from subsidiaries as it is negligible.

(a) Cost of inventories of the Group is determined on a weighted average basis.

(b) During the financial year, inventories of the Group recognised as cost of sales amounted to RM788,319,000
(2019: RM1,051,293,000). The amounts of write down and write off of inventories and inventory losses
recognised as cost of sales during the financial year are as follows:

Inventories written off 1,963 1,999

12,836 8,668

(c) The Group writes down its obsolete or slow moving inventories based on assessment of their estimated
net selling prices. Inventories are written down when events or changes in circumstances indicate that
the carrying amounts could not be recovered. Management specifically analyses future demand when
making this judgement to evaluate the adequacy of the write down for obsolete or slow moving inventories.
Where expectations differ from the original estimates, the differences would impact the carrying amounts
of inventories. The inventories written down to net realisable values included RM6,212,000 (2019: RM
Nil) recognised in relation to the impact of COVID-19 pandemic.

(a) Trade and other receivables are classified as financial assets measured at amortised cost.

(b) Trade receivables are non-interest bearing and the normal trade credit terms granted by the Group
ranges from 2 to 60 days (2019: 2 to 60 days) from the date of invoice. They are recognised at their
original invoice amounts, which represent their fair values on initial recognition.

(c) Impairment for trade receivables are recognised based on the simplified approach using the lifetime
expected credit losses.

The Group considers credit loss experience and observable data such as current changes and future
forecasts in economic conditions by market segment of the Group to estimate the amount of expected
credit losses. The methodology and assumptions including any forecasts of future economic conditions
are reviewed regularly.

During this process, the probability of non-payment by the trade receivables is adjusted by forward
looking information and multiplied by the amount of the expected loss arising from default to determine
the lifetime expected credit losses for the trade receivables. For trade receivables, which are reported
net, such impairments are recorded in a separate impairment account with the loss being recognised
within administrative expenses in the statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. On
confirmation that the trade receivable would not be collectable, the gross carrying value of the asset
would be written off against the associated impairment.

The Group defined significant increase in credit risk based on the operating performance of the receivables,
payment trends and past due information.

The Group has identified the gross domestic product (“GDP”), unemployment rate, inflation rate and
consumer price index as the key macroeconomic factors of the forward looking information.

It requires management to exercise significant judgement in determining the probability of default by


trade receivables and appropriate forward looking information incorporating the impact of the COVID-19
pandemic in assessing the expected credit losses.

No expected credit loss is recognised arising from trade receivables as it is negligible.

The fair values of hire purchase and lease creditors were estimated by discounting expected future cash
flows at market incremental lending rate for similar type of lending, borrowings or leasing arrangements
at the end of each reporting period.

The fair values of hire purchase and lease creditors were categorised as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
There was no transfer between levels in the hierarchy in the previous financial year.

22. PROVISION FOR EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

The Group operates an unfunded, defined Retirement Benefit Scheme (“the Scheme”) for its eligible employees
of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Padini (Thailand) Co., Ltd.. Under the Scheme, eligible employees are entitled
to retirement benefits of 400 days of final salary upon attainment of the retirement age of 60.

The amounts recognised in the statements of financial position are determined as follows:

At 30 June 2020/2019 48 69

Certain assumptions are used in the computation of provision for employee benefits and due to the long term
nature of this Scheme, such estimates are subject to uncertainty.

The principal assumptions used are as follows:

Group
2020 2019
% %

Discount rate 5.87 2.88


Price inflation 0.92 0.92
Expected rate of salary increases 5.00 5.00

The discount rate is determined based on the values of Government Bond of Thailand yields with more than
10 years of maturity.

Significant assumption for determination of the provision for employee benefits is the discount rate. The
sensitivity analysis below has been determined based on changes to significant assumption, with all other
assumptions held constant.

2020 2019
Increase Decrease Increase Decrease
Group RM’000 RM’000 RM’000 RM’000

A 1% increase/decrease in
  discount rate will decrease/
  increase the provision for
  employee benefits (8) 10 (11) 15

The sensitivity analysis presented above may not be representative of the actual change in provision for
employee benefits as it is unlikely that the change in assumptions would occur in isolation of one another as
some assumptions may be correlated.

181,942 122,377

(a) The Group designates corporate guarantees given to financial institutions and landlords as insurance
contracts as defined in MFRS 4 Insurance Contracts. The Group recognises these insurance contracts
as recognised insurance liabilities when there is a present obligation, legal or constructive, as a result
of a past event, when it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits would
be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

At the end of each reporting period, the Group assesses whether its recognised insurance liabilities are
adequate, using current estimates of future cash flows under its insurance contracts. If this assessment
shows that the carrying amount of the insurance liabilities is inadequate, the entire deficiency shall be
recognised in profit or loss.

Recognised insurance liabilities are only removed from the statements of financial position when, and
only when, it is extinguished via a discharge, cancellation or expiration.

(b) The currency exposure profiles of corporate guarantees are as follows:

(c) The Directors are of the view that the chances of the financial institutions and landlords to call upon the
corporate guarantees are remote. Accordingly, the fair values of the above corporate guarantees given
to subsidiaries for banking facilities and to landlords for non-cancellable leases of business premises
are negligible.

(a) Sale of goods

Revenue from sale of goods is recognised at a point in time when the goods have been transferred to
the customers and coincides with the delivery of products and acceptance by customer.

The contracts for the sale of goods provide customers with a right of return the goods within a specified
period. No refund liability is recognised arising from the right of return as it is negligible.

There is no significant financing component in the revenue arising from sale of goods as the sales are
made on the normal credit terms not exceeding twelve (12) months.

(b) Commission income

Commission income is recognised at a point in time at the fair value of the consideration receivable upon
the sales of goods.

27. REVENUE (continued)

(c) Revenue from customer loyalty points

The Group’s loyalty points programme allows customers to accumulate points that can be redeemed
for products.

The loyalty points give rise to a separate performance obligation as they provide a material right to the
customer. A portion of the transaction price is allocated to the loyalty points awarded to customers based
on relative stand-alone selling price and recognised as a contract liability until the points are redeemed.
Revenue is recognised at a point in time upon redemption or expiry of the customer loyalty points by
the customer.

When estimating the stand-alone selling price of the loyalty points, the Group considers the likelihood
that the customer will redeem the points. The Group updates its estimates of the points that will be
redeemed on a regular basis and any adjustments to the contract liability balance are charged against
revenue.

(d) Dividend income

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

(e) Other income

(i) Interest income

Interest income is recognised as it accrues, using the effective interest method.

(ii) Rental income

Rental income is accounted for on a straight line basis over the lease term of an ongoing lease.

(iii) Royalty income and master license fee

Royalty income and master license fee are recognised on an accrual basis in accordance with the
substance of the relevant agreements.

(iv) Membership fee

Membership fee is recognised on a cash receipt basis.

36. CAPITAL AND FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

(a) Capital management

The primary objective of the capital management of the Group is to ensure that it maintains a strong
capital base in order to support its business operations and to provide fair returns for shareholders and
benefits for other stakeholders.

For capital management purposes, the Group considers equity attributable to owners of the parent as
the capital structure of the Group. The Group manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it
in response to changes in economic conditions. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the
Group may, from time to time, adjust the dividend payout to shareholders or issue new share, where
necessary. No changes were made in the objectives, policies or processes during the financial year
ended 30 June 2020 and financial year ended 30 June 2019.

Pursuant to the requirements of Practice Note No. 17/2005 of the Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad, the
Group is required to maintain a consolidated shareholders’ equity of not less than or equals to twenty-five
percent (25%) of the issued and paid-up capital and such shareholders’ equity is not less than RM40.0
million. The Group has complied with this requirement for the financial year ended 30 June 2020.

The Group is not subject to any other externally imposed capital requirements.

(b) Financial risk management

The financial risk management objective of the Group is to optimise value creation for shareholders whilst
minimising the potential adverse impact arising from credit risk, liquidity and cash flow risk, interest rate
risk, foreign currency risk and market risk.

The Group operates within an established risk management framework and clearly defined guidelines that
are regularly reviewed by the Board of Directors and does not trade in derivative financial instruments.
Financial risk management is carried out through risk review programmes, internal control systems,
insurance programmes and adherence to the Group’s financial risk management policies. The Group
is exposed mainly to credit risk, liquidity and cash flow risk, interest rate risk, foreign currency risk and
market risk. Information on the management of the related exposures is detailed below.

36. CAPITAL AND FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)

(b) Financial risk management (continued)

(i) Credit risk

Cash deposits and trade and other receivables could give rise to credit risk, which requires the loss
to be recognised if a counter party fails to perform as contracted. The counter parties are reputable
institutions and organisations. It is the policy of the Group to monitor the financial standing of these
counter parties on an ongoing basis to ensure that the Group is exposed to minimal credit risk.

The primary exposure of the Group to credit risk arises through its trade receivables. The trading
terms of the Group with its customers are mainly on credit, except for certain export franchisees,
where deposits in advance are normally required. The credit period is generally for a period of two
(2) days, extending up to two (2) months for major customers. Each customer has a maximum
credit limit and the Group seeks to maintain strict control over its outstanding receivables via a
credit control department to minimise credit risk. Overdue balances are reviewed regularly by
senior management.

The credit risk profile has been disclosed in Note 14 to the financial statements.

(ii) Liquidity and cash flow risk

The Group actively manages its debt maturity profile, operating cash flows and availability of
funding so as to ensure that all operating, investing and financing needs are met. In executing its
liquidity risk management strategy, the Group monitors and maintains a level of cash and cash
equivalents deemed adequate to finance the activities of the Group.

The analysis of financial instruments by remaining contractual maturities has been disclosed in
Notes 6, 19 and 23 to the financial statements respectively.

(iii) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of the financial instruments of
the Group and of the Company would fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates.

The primary interest rate risk of the Group and of the Company relates to interest-earning deposits
and interest-bearing borrowings from financial institutions. The fixed-rate borrowings of the Group
are not exposed to a risk of changes in their fair values due to changes in interest rates. The
floating rate deposits and borrowings of the Group and of the Company are exposed to a risk of
change in cash flows due to changes in interest rates. The Group does not use derivative financial
instruments to hedge its risk.

The interest rate profile and sensitivity analysis of interest rate risk have been disclosed in Notes
6, 15 and 19 to the financial statements respectively.

(iv) Foreign currency risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument
would fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates.

The Group and the Company are exposed to foreign currency risk on transactions that are
denominated in currencies other than the functional currencies of the operating entities.

(b) Financial risk management (continued)

(iv) Foreign currency risk (continued)

The Group also holds cash and bank balances denominated in foreign currencies for working
capital purposes. At the end of each reporting period, such foreign currencies balances amounted
to RM57,070,000 (2019: RM59,082,000) for the Group.

The currency exposure profile and sensitivity analysis of foreign currency risk have been disclosed
in Notes 11, 14, 15, 23 and 26 to the financial statements respectively.

(v) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of the financial instruments of the
Group would fluctuate because of changes in market prices (other than interest or exchange rates).

The sensitivity analysis of market risk has been disclosed in Note 10 to the financial statements.

37. ADOPTION OF NEW MFRSs AND AMENDMENTS TO MFRSs

described in the following sections.

37. ADOPTION OF NEW MFRSs AND AMENDMENTS TO MFRSs (continued)

37.1 New MFRSs adopted during the financial year (continued)

(a) MFRS 16 Leases

MFRS 16 supersedes MFRS 117 Leases, IFRIC 4 Determining whether an Arrangement contains a
Lease, SIC-15 Operating Leases-Incentives and SIC-27 Evaluating the Substance of Transactions
Involving the Legal Form of a Lease. MFRS 16 sets out the principles for the recognition,
measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases and requires lessees to recognise most
leases on the financial statements.

Lessor accounting under MFRS 16 is substantially unchanged from MFRS 117. Lessors would
continue to classify leases as either operating or finance leases using similar principles as in MFRS
117. Therefore, MFRS 16 does not have a material impact for leases for which the Group is the
lessor.

The Group applied MFRS 16 using the modified retrospective approach, for which the cumulative
effect of initial application is recognised in retained earnings as at 1 July 2019. Accordingly, the
comparative information presented is not restated.

On adoption of MFRS 16, the Group recognised lease liabilities in relation to leases which had
previously been classified as “operating leases” under the principles of MFRS 117. These liabilities
were measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the
incremental borrowing rate of the Group as of 1 July 2019. The range of incremental borrowing
rates of the Group applied to the lease liabilities on 1 July 2019 were between 4.3% to 9.5%.

In order to compute the transition impact of MFRS 16, a significant data extraction exercise was
undertaken by management to summarise all property and equipment lease data such that the
respective inputs could be uploaded into management’s model. The incremental borrowing rate
method has been adopted where the implicit rate of interest in a lease is not readily determinable.

For leases previously classified as finance leases, the Group recognised the carrying amount
of the lease asset and lease liability immediately before transition as the carrying amounts of
the right-of-use assets and the lease liabilities respectively at the date of initial application. The
measurement principles of MFRS 16 are only applied after that date.

In applying MFRS 16 for the first time, the Group has used the following practical expedients
permitted by the standard:

- Applying a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with reasonably similar characteristics;
- Relying on previous assessments on whether leases are onerous as an alternative to
performing an impairment review - there were no onerous contracts as at 1 July 2019;
- Accounting for operating leases with a remaining lease term of less than 12 months as at
1 July 2019 and do not contain a purchase option as short-term leases;
- Excluding initial direct costs for the measurement of the right-of-use asset at the date of
initial application; and
- Using hindsight in determining the lease term where the contract contains options to extend
or terminate the lease.

37. ADOPTION OF NEW MFRSs AND AMENDMENTS TO MFRSs (continued)

37.1 New MFRSs adopted during the financial year (continued)

(a) MFRS 16 Leases (continued)

On transition to MFRS 16, the Group recognised right‑of‑use assets and lease liabilities. The
impact on transition is summarised below:

As at As at
30 June 1 July
2019 Impact 2019
Note RM’000 RM’000 RM’000

Lease liabilities b – 599,889 599,889
Borrowings 23,903 (1,121) 22,782

(a) The associated right-of-use assets were measured using the modified retrospective approach,
for which the right-of-use assets is equal to the lease liabilities, adjusted by the amount of
any prepaid or accrued lease payments relating to that lease recognised in the financial
statements as at 1 July 2019. Accordingly, the comparative information presented is not
restated.

(b) Lease liabilities are measured as follows:

37. ADOPTION OF NEW MFRSs AND AMENDMENTS TO MFRSs (continued)

37.1 New MFRSs adopted during the financial year (continued)

(b) Amendment to MFRS 16 Covid-19 Related Rent Concessions

MFRS 16 has been amended to:

(a) Provide lessees with an exemption from the requirement to determine whether a COVID-
19-related rent concession is a lease modification; and
(b) Require lessees that apply the exemption to account for COVID-19-related rent concessions
as if they were not lease modifications.

The practical expedient only applies to rent concessions occurring as a direct consequence of the
COVID-19 pandemic and only if all of the following conditions are met:

(i) Changes in lease payments results in revised consideration for the lease that is substantially
the same as, or less than, the consideration for the lease immediately preceding the change;
(ii) Any reduction in lease payments affects only payments originally due on or before 30 June
2021; and
(iii) There is no substantive change to other terms and conditions of the lease.

The Group has early adopted Amendment to MFRS 16 and elected to apply the practical expedient
to all rent concession relating to leases with similar characteristics and in similar circumstances.
Consequently, the Group does not recognise changes in these lease payments as lease
modifications and instead, recognise these as variable lease payments in profit or loss. The effects
of early adoption are disclosed in Note 6.1(c) to the financial statements.

37.2 New MFRSs that have been issued, but only effective for annual periods beginning on or after
1 January 2020

The following are Standards of the MFRS Framework that have been issued by the MASB but have not
been early adopted by the Group and the Company:

Title Effective Date

Amendments to MFRS 17 Insurance Contracts 1 January 2023

38. FINANCIAL REPORTING UPDATES

IFRIC Agenda Decision - An assessment of the lease term (IFRS 16)

The IFRS Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”) issued a final agenda decision on 26 November 2019 regarding
“Lease term and useful life of leasehold improvements (IFRS 16 and IAS 16)”.

The submission to the IFRIC raised a question pertaining the determination of the lease term of a cancellable
lease or a renewable lease based on the requirements of IFRS 16.B34.

Based on the final agenda decision, the IFRIC concluded that the determination of the enforceable period of a
lease and the lease term itself shall include broad economic circumstances beyond purely commercial terms.

The Group has implemented the requirements of this final agenda decision during the financial year ended
30 June 2020.

39. SIGNIFICANT EVENT DURING THE FINANCIAL YEAR

The World Health Organisation declared the 2019 Novel Coronavirus infection (“COVID-19”) a pandemic on
11 March 2020. This was followed by the Government of Malaysia issuing a Federal Government Gazette on
18 March 2020, imposing a Movement Control Order (“MCO”) effective from 18 March 2020 to 31 March 2020
arising from the COVID-19 pandemic. The MCO was subsequently extended until 12 May 2020, followed by
Conditional MCO until 9 June 2020 and then, Recovery MCO until 31 December 2020.

The enforcement of the MCO has impacted the consumer demand which resulted in the decrease in local
sales and has restricted the business operations at full capacity. There were no sales generated during the
period from 18 March 2020 until 4 May 2020 due to the closure of all local outlets. Most of the outlets have
resumed business on 5 May 2020 with the Standard Operating Procedures (“SOP”) imposed during the
Conditional Movement Control Order (“CMCO”) and subsequently replaced by Recovery Movement Control
Order (“RMCO”) with SOP remained until 31 December 2020.

In addition, management will continue to implement measures to control cost, optimising working capital,
preserving cash and streamlining the operations to minimise the impact.

Based on the assessment and information available at the date of authorisation of the financial statements,
the Group has sufficient cash flows and undrawn facilities to meet its liquidity needs in the next 12 months
after the end of the reporting period.
