doubtful debts, and had satisfied themselves that all known bad debts had been written off and that adequate provision
had been made for doubtful debts; and

misleading; and

of the Company misleading or inappropriate.

1 CORPORATE INFORMATION
The Company is a public limited liability company, incorporated and domiciled in Malaysia and listed on the Main Market of
Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad (“Bursa Malaysia”).
Both the registered office and principal place of business of the Company are located at Level 29, IOI City Tower 2, Lebuh IRC,
IOI Resort City, 62502 Putrajaya, Wilayah Persekutuan (Putrajaya), Malaysia.
The immediate and ultimate holding company is Vertical Capacity Sdn. Bhd., which is incorporated in Malaysia.
2 PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES
The principal activity of the Company is investment holding.
The principal activities of the subsidiaries, associate and joint ventures are set out in Note 43 to the financial statements.
There have been no significant changes in the nature of the activities of the Group and of the Company during the
financial year.
As at 30 June 2022, the Group’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by RM7,894,721,000 due to the
classification of borrowings as current liabilities as the repayment is done within 12 months from the end of the
current financial year.
In order to meet the repayment obligation in the next 12 months from the end of the current financial year, the
Group has put in place certain financing plans as disclosed in Note 39.4.
Based on this, the Directors are of the view that the going concern assumption is appropriate for the preparation of
the financial statements.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with MFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reported period. It also requires Directors to exercise their judgement in the process of applying the Group’s and
Company’s accounting policies. Although these estimates and judgement are based on the Directors’ best knowledge
of current events and actions, actual results may differ. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity,
or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed in Note 5 to the
financial statements.
• Amendments to MFRS 9, MFRS 139, MFRS 7, MFRS 4, and MFRS 16 ‘Interest Rate Benchmark Reform Phased 2’
• Amendments to MFRS 16 Leases – COVID-19 Related Rent Concessions beyond 30 June 2021
The adoption of these amendments to MFRSs did not have any significant impact to the Group’s and the Company’s
results and financial position.
There were no changes to the contractual cash flows of the IBOR-linked contracts in previous financial year, the Group
and the Company adopted the Phase 2 amendments in the current financial statements because the Phase 2
amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2021. However, there is no impact arising
from IBOR reform as the interest rate swap contract and the borrowings expired prior to the implementation of the
new interest rate benchmark.
4.2 New MFRSs that have been issued but not yet effective and applicable to the Group and to the Company
A number of new standards and amendments to standards and interpretations are effective for financial year beginning
after 1 July 2022. None of these is expected to have a significant effect on the financial statements of the Group and
of the Company.
If control of the asset transfers over time, revenue is recognised over the period of the contract by reference to the
stage of completion of the development activity at the end of the reporting period. The stage of completion is
determined based on actual costs certified by professional consultants as a percentage of total estimated costs.
Significant judgement is required in determining the total estimated costs. Substantial changes in cost estimates may
affect the profitability of the respective property development projects. Where the actual total property development
costs are different from the estimated total property development costs, such difference will impact the recognition
of revenue and costs from the property development activities.
In making the judgements, the Group and the Company rely on its industry knowledge, past experience and work
of specialist.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, unutilised tax losses and unabsorbed
capital allowances to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit would be available against which the unutilised
tax losses and unabsorbed capital allowances can be utilised. Significant management judgement is required to
determine the amount of deferred tax assets that could be recognised, based upon the likely timing and level of
future taxable profits.
Significant judgement is involved in determining whether the development activities carried out meet the criteria for
capitalisation of borrowing costs and, management is also required to estimate the appropriate apportionment of
borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation to the various development phases.
There are complexities in determining the fair value of the completed investment properties, which involve significant
estimates and judgements in determining the appropriate valuation methodologies and estimating the underlying
assumptions to be applied. The list of significant unobservable inputs and its sensitivity analysis are disclosed in
Note 17 to the financial statements.
Integrated Annual Report 2022 195
Gains or losses on the disposal of subsidiaries include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the
sold subsidiaries.
6.1.4
Joint ventures
A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the joint ventures have rights to the net assets of the
arrangement. A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the joint operators have rights to the assets
and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement.
Interests in joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method, after initially being recognised at cost in
the consolidated statement of financial position. Under the equity method, the investment in a joint venture is
initially recognised at cost inclusive of goodwill, if any, and adjusted thereafter to recognise the Group’s share
of the post-acquisition results and other changes in the net assets of the joint venture based on their latest
audited financial statements. Dividends received or receivable from a joint venture are recognised as a
reduction in the carrying amount of the investment. Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial
statements of joint ventures used by the Group in applying the equity method to ensure consistency of
accounting policies with those of the Group. When the Group’s share of losses in a joint venture equals or
exceeds its interests in the joint venture, including any long-term interests that, in substance, form part of
the Group’s net investment in the joint venture, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has
incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the joint venture.
The Group determines at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that the investment
in the joint venture is impaired. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the carrying
amount of the joint venture exceeds its recoverable amount. The Group presents the impairment loss
adjacent to ‘share of results of joint ventures’ in the statement of profit or loss.
Unrealised gains on transactions between the Group and its joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of
the Group’s interests in the joint ventures. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction
provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred.
When the Group ceases to equity account its joint venture because of a loss of joint control, any retained
interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value with the change in carrying amount recognised in profit or
loss. This fair value becomes the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the
retained interest as a financial asset. In addition, any amount previously recognised in other comprehensive
income in respect of the entity is accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or
liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified
to profit or loss.
If the ownership interest in a joint venture is reduced but joint control is retained, only a proportionate
share of the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss
where appropriate.
Integrated Annual Report 2022 197
Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method,
the investment in an associate is initially recognised at cost, and adjusted thereafter to recognise the Group’s
share of the post-acquisition results and other changes in the net assets of the associate based on their latest
audited financial statements. Dividends received or receivable from an associate are recognised as a reduction
in the carrying amount of the investment. When the Group’s share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds
its interest in the associate, including any long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the Group’s net
investment in the associate, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred legal or
constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate. The Group’s investment in associate
includes goodwill identified on acquisition.
The Group determines at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that the investment in
the associate is impaired. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the carrying amount of
the associate exceeds its recoverable amount. The Group presents the impairment loss adjacent to ‘share of
results of associates’ in the statement of profit or loss.
Profits and losses resulting from upstream and downstream transactions between the Group and its associate
are recognised in the Group’s financial statements only to the extent of unrelated investor’s interests in the
associates. Unrealised losses are eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the
asset transferred.
When the Group ceases to equity account its associate because of a loss of significant influence, any retained
interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value with the change in carrying amount recognised in profit or
loss. This fair value becomes the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the
retained interest as a financial asset. In addition, any amount previously recognised in other comprehensive
income in respect of the entity is accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or
liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified
to profit or loss.
If the ownership interest in an associate is reduced but significant influence is retained, only a proportionate
share of the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss
where appropriate.
Dilution gains and losses arising in investments in associates are recognised in profit or loss.
6.1.6 Investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates in separate financial statements
In the Company’s separate financial statements, investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates are
carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. On disposal of investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures
and associates, the difference between disposal proceeds and the carrying amounts of the investments are
recognised in profit or loss.
The amounts due from subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates of which the Company does not expect
repayment in the foreseeable future are considered as part of the Company’s net investments in the
respective investees.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate,
only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of
the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and
maintenance are recognised as expenses in profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.
Freehold land is not depreciated as it has an infinite life. Other property, plant and equipment are depreciated on the
straight-line method to allocate the cost to their residual values over their estimated useful lives, summarised as follows:
Assets under construction are only depreciated when the assets are ready for their intended use.
At the end of the reporting period, the Group assesses whether there is any indication of impairment. If such indications
exist, an analysis is performed to assess whether the carrying amount of the asset is fully recoverable. A write down
is made if the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount. See accounting policy Note 6.5 on impairment of
non-financial assets.
Gain and losses on disposals are determined by comparing net disposal proceeds with carrying amount and are
included in profit or loss.
Investment property is measured initially at its cost, including related transaction costs.
After initial recognition, investment property is carried at fair value. Investment properties of the Group are measured
at fair value except for investment properties under construction which are measured at cost until either the fair value
becomes reliably determinable or when construction is completed, whichever is earlier. Investment properties under
construction is measured at cost on the basis that the fair value of the work in progress building is unable to be reliably
measured given the range of estimates involved during the construction phase, including the term yield, reversion yield
and price per sq foot. Fair value is based on active market prices, adjusted, if necessary, for any difference in the nature,
location or condition of the specific asset. If this information is not available, the Group uses alternative valuation
methods, such as recent prices on less active markets or discounted cash flow projections. Valuations are performed
as of the reporting date by professional valuers who hold recognised and relevant professional qualifications and have
recent experience in the location and category of the investment property being valued.
The fair value of investment property reflects, among other things, rental income from current leases and other
assumptions that market participants would make when pricing the property under current market conditions.
Subsequent expenditure is capitalised to the asset’s carrying amount only when it is probable that future economic
benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All
other repairs and maintenance costs are expensed when incurred. When part of an investment property is replaced,
the carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised.
Integrated Annual Report 2022 199
Where the Group disposes of a property at fair value in an arm’s length transaction, the carrying amount immediately
prior to the sale is adjusted to the transaction price, and the adjustment is recorded in profit or loss as a net gain/loss
from fair value adjustment on investment property.
If a property undergoes a change in use and becomes an investment property, any difference resulting between the
carrying amount of the property and the fair value of such investment property at the date of transfer is recognised in
accordance with the applicable MFRS. Its fair value at the date of reclassification becomes its cost for subsequent
accounting purposes.
6.4 Goodwill
Goodwill arises from a business combination and represents the excess of the aggregate of fair value of consideration
transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the fair value of any previous equity interest
in the acquiree over the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the acquisition date.
If the fair value of consideration transferred, the amount of non-controlling interest and the fair value of previously held
interest in the acquiree are less than the fair value of the net identifiable assets of the acquiree, the resulting gain is
recognised in profit or loss.
Goodwill is not amortised but it is tested for impairment annually and whenever there is an indication that it might be
impaired. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to each of
the cash generating units (“CGUs”), or groups of CGUs, that is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.
Each unit or group of units to which the goodwill is allocated represents the lowest level within the entity at which the
goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes. Goodwill is monitored at operating segment level. The
carrying amount of goodwill is compared to the recoverable amount, which is the higher of value in use and the fair
value less costs of disposal. Any impairment is recognised immediately as an expense and is not subsequently reversed.
The impairment loss is charged to profit or loss. Impairment loss on goodwill is not reversed. In respect of other assets,
any subsequent increase in recoverable amount is recognised in profit or loss.
200 Financial Reports IOI Properties Group Berhad
Contracts may contain both lease and non-lease components. The Group allocates the consideration in the
contract to the lease and non-lease components based on their relative stand-alone prices. However, for leases
of properties for which the Group is a lessee, it has elected the practical expedient provided in MFRS 16 not to
separate lease and non-lease components. Both components are accounted for as a single lease component and
payments for both components are included in the measurement of lease liability.
Lease term
In determining the lease term, the Group considers all facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive
to exercise an extension option, or not to exercise a termination option. Extension options are only included in
the lease term if the lease is reasonably certain to be extended.
The Group reassesses the lease term upon the occurrence of a significant event or change in circumstances that
is within the control of the Group and affects whether the Group is reasonably certain to exercise an option not
previously included in the determination of lease term, or not to exercise an option previously included in the
determination of lease term. A revision in lease term results in remeasurement of the lease liabilities.
ROU assets
ROU assets are initially measured at cost comprising the following:
ROU assets that are not investment properties are subsequently measured at cost, less accumulated depreciation
and accumulated impairment. The ROU assets are generally depreciated over the shorter of the lease term on a
straight-line basis.
If the Group is reasonably certain to exercise a purchase option, the ROU asset is depreciated over the underlying
asset’s useful life. In addition, the ROU assets are adjusted for certain remeasurement of the lease liabilities.
The Group presents ROU assets that meet the definition of investment property in the statement of financial
position as investment property. ROU assets that are not investment properties are presented within property,
plant and equipment in the statement of financial position.
The Group applies the fair value model to ROU assets that meet the definition of investment property of MFRS
140 consistent with those investment property owned by the Group (refer to Note 6.3 on investment properties).
Integrated Annual Report 2022 201
Lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be readily
determined, which is generally the case for leases in the Group, the lessee’s incremental borrowing is used. This
is the rate that the individual lessee would have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar
value to the ROU in a similar economic environment with similar term, security and conditions.
Lease payments are allocated between principal and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to profit or loss
over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability
for each period.
The Group presents the lease liabilities as a separate line item in the statement of financial position. Finance cost
on the lease liability is presented within the interest expense in profit or loss.
Finance leases
The Group classifies a lease as a finance lease if the lease transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental
to ownership of an underlying asset to the lessee.
The Group derecognises the underlying asset and recognises a receivable at an amount equal to the net
investment in a finance lease. Net investment in a finance lease is measured at an amount equal to the sum of
the present value of lease payments from lessee and the unguaranteed residual value of the underlying asset.
Initial direct costs are also included in the initial measurement of the net investment. The net investments is
subject to MFRS 9 impairment (refer to Note 6.22 on impairment of financial assets and financial guarantee
contracts). In addition, the Group reviews regularly the estimated unguaranteed residual value.
Lease income is recognised over the term of the lease using the net investment method so as to reflect a constant
periodic rate of return on the balance outstanding. The Group revises the lease income allocation if there is a
reduction in the estimated unguaranteed residual value.
When assets are leased out under a finance lease, the present value of the lease payments is recognised as
a receivable. The difference between the gross receivable and the present value of the receivable is recognised
as unearned finance income.
When the Group is an intermediate lessor, it accounts for its interests in the head lease and the sublease
separately. It assesses the lease classification of a sublease with reference to the right-of-use asset arising from
the head lease, not with reference to the underlying asset.
Operating leases
The Group recognises lease payments received under operating leases as income on a straight-line basis over
the lease term as part of “revenue”.
Integrated Annual Report 2022 203
The cost of land held for property development consists of cost associated with the acquisition of land. These
costs include the purchase price of the land, professional fees, stamp duties, commissions, conversion fees
and other relevant levies.
Land held for property development is transferred to property development costs under current assets when
development activities have commenced and where the development activities can be completed within the
Group’s normal operating cycle.
Property development cost of unsold unit is transferred to completed development properties once the
development is completed.
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less costs to completion and the
estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
204 Financial Reports IOI Properties Group Berhad
Trade and other receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using
the effective interest method, less provision for impairment (refer to Note 6.22 on impairment of financial assets and
financial guarantee contracts).
Contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to the customer for which the Group has received the
consideration or billed the customer. In the context of property development and construction contracts, contract
liability is the excess of the billings to date over the cumulative revenue earned. Contract liabilities include club
membership fees, down payments received from customers and other deferred income where the Group has billed or
collected the payment before the goods are delivered or services are provided to the customers.
6.11.3
Dividend distribution
Liability is recognised for the amount of any dividend declared, being appropriately authorised and no longer
at the discretion of the Group, on or before the end of the reporting period but not distributed at the end of
the reporting period.
• the profit attributable to owners of the Company, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than
ordinary shares; and
• by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for
bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the financial year and excluding treasury shares.
• the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential
ordinary shares; and
• the weighted average number of additional ordinary shares that would have been outstanding
assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.
Trade payables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective
interest method.
Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent
that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the
draw-down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be
drawn down, the fee is capitalised as a pre-payment for liquidity services and amortised over the period of the
facility to which it relates.
Borrowings are removed from the statement of financial position when the obligation specified in the contract
is discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has
been extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets
transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss within interest expense.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement
of the liability for at least 12 months after the end of the reporting period.
206 Financial Reports IOI Properties Group Berhad
The capitalisation of borrowing costs as part of the cost of a qualifying asset commences when expenditure for
the asset is being incurred, borrowing costs are being incurred and activities that are necessary to prepare the
assets for its intended use or sale are in progress. Capitalisation of borrowing costs is suspended or ceases
when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the qualifying asset for its intended use or sale are
interrupted or completed.
Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on
qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.
All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of
the reporting period in the countries where the Group’s subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates operate and
generate taxable income.
Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax
regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to
be paid to the tax authorities. This liability is measured using the single best estimate of the most likely outcome.
Deferred tax is recognised using the liability method, providing for temporary differences between the amounts
attributed to assets and liabilities for tax purposes and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. However,
deferred tax liabilities are not recognised if they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred tax is also not
accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination
that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax is determined using
tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period and are
expected to apply when the related deferred tax asset is realised or the deferred tax liability is settled.
Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the
deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses or unused tax credits can be utilised.
Current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax
assets against current tax liabilities and when the deferred income tax assets and liabilities relate to taxes levied by the
same taxation authority on either the taxable entity or different taxable entities where there is an intention to settle the
balances on a net basis. Unutilised investment tax allowance, being tax incentive that is not a tax base of an asset, is
recognised as a deferred tax asset to the extent that it is probable that the future taxable profits will be available
against which the unutilised tax incentive can be utilised.
Integrated Annual Report 2022 207
Bonuses are recognised as an expense when there is a present, legal or constructive obligation to make such
payments, as a result of past events and when a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
The Group’s contributions to defined contribution plans are charged to profit or loss in the period to which
they relate. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in
the future payments is available.
Government grants relating to development costs are netted against its relevant development expenditure when the
benefit of the grant is intended to compensate are incurred.
6.17 Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is
probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate of the amount can
be made.
Where the Group expects a provision to be reimbursed by another party, the reimbursement is recognised as
a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. Provisions are not recognised for future
operating losses.
Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is
determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognised even if the likelihood of an
outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small.
Provisions are measured at the present value of management’s best estimate of the expenditures expected to be
required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of
money and the risks specific to the obligation. The increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognised as
finance cost.

A contingent asset is a possible asset that arises from past events whose existence will be confirmed by the occurrence
or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the Group. The Group does not
recognise contingent assets but discloses its existence where inflows of economic benefits are probable, but not
virtually certain.
A contract with customer exists when the contract has commercial substance. The Group, the Company and
the customer have approved the contract and intend to perform their respective obligations, the Group’s, the
Company’s and the customer’s rights regarding the goods or services to be transferred and the payment
terms can be identified, and it is probable that the Group and the Company will collect the consideration to
which it will be entitled to in exchange of those goods or services.
Property development, comprising residential and commercial properties are specifically identified by its
plot, lot or parcel number as set out in the sale and purchase agreement.
Contracts with customers include multiple promises to customers and therefore accounted for as
separate performance obligations. In this case, the transaction price will be allocated to each performance
obligation based on the stand-alone selling prices. When these are not directly observable, they are
estimated based on expected cost plus margin.
Revenue is recognised as and when control of the asset is transferred to the customer and it is probable
that the Group would collect the consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for the asset that
would be transferred to the customer. Depending on the terms of the contract and the laws that apply
to the contract, control of the asset may transfer over time or at a point in time. Control of the asset is
transferred over time if the performance of the Group does not create an asset with an alternative use to
the Group and the Group has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.
If control of the asset transfers over time, revenue is recognised over the period of the contract using the
input method by reference to the progress towards complete satisfaction of that performance obligation.
Otherwise, revenue is recognised at a point in time when the customer obtains control of the asset.
The Group recognises revenue over time using the input method, which is based on the actual costs
incurred to date on the property development project bear to the estimated costs for the respective
development projects.
Integrated Annual Report 2022 209
The Group recognises sales at a point in time for the sale of completed development properties, when
the control of the properties has been transferred to the purchasers, being when the properties have
been completed and delivered to the customers and it is probable that the Group will collect the
considerations to which it would be entitled to in exchange for the assets sold.
Hotel revenue represent income derived from room rentals, sales of food and beverage and other hotel
related income net of discount are recognised at a point in time upon delivery of products and customer
acceptance, if any, or performance of services.
Club subscription fees, which are not refundable, are recognised over the subscription period.
Revenue from sale of goods is recognised based on invoice value of goods sold and revenue from
services is recognised net of discounts as and when services are performed.
Entrance fees collected for rights of enjoyment of facilities are recognised when services are rendered.

Other revenue comprises of management fees, building maintenance fees, landscaping services and
sales of plantation produce. Revenue are recognised when services are rendered or upon delivery of
products and customer acceptance.

The results and financial position of all the Group entities (none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary
economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the
presentation currency as follows:
• assets and liabilities for each statement of financial position presented are translated at the closing rate
at the date of that statement of financial position;
• income and expenses for each statement of profit or loss and statement of comprehensive income are
translated at average exchange rates (unless this average is not a reasonable approximation of the
cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are
translated at the rate on the dates of the transactions); and
• all resulting exchange differences are recognised as a separate component of other comprehensive income.
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisitions of a foreign entity are treated as assets and
liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the closing rate. Exchange differences arising are recognised
in other comprehensive income.
On consolidation, exchange differences arising from the translation of any net investment in foreign entities,
and of borrowings and other financial instruments designated as hedges of such investments, are recognised
in other comprehensive income.
On the disposal of a foreign operation (that is, a disposal of the Group’s entire interest in a foreign operation,

loss of joint control over a joint venture that includes a foreign operation, or a disposal involving loss of
significant influence over an associate that includes a foreign operation), all of the exchange differences
relating to that foreign operation recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the separate
component of equity are reclassified to profit or loss, as part of the gain or loss on disposal. In the case of a
partial disposal that does not result in the Group losing control over a subsidiary that includes a foreign
operation, the proportionate share of accumulated exchange differences are re-attributed to non-controlling
interests and are not recognised in profit or loss. For all other partial disposals (that is, reductions in the
Group’s ownership interest in associates or joint ventures that do not result in the Group losing significant
influence or joint control) the proportionate share of the accumulated exchange difference is reclassified to
profit or loss.
Integrated Annual Report 2022 211
The Group and the Company classify their financial assets in the following measurement categories:
(i) those be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income or
through profit or loss); and
The Group and the Company reclassify debt investments when and only when their business model for
managing those assets changes.
Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on trade date, the date on which the
Group and the Company commit to purchase or sell the asset. Financial assets are derecognised when
the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or have been transferred and the
Group and the Company have transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.
(c) Measurement
At initial recognition, the Group and the Company measure a financial asset at its fair value plus, in
the case of financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”), transaction costs that are
directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial assets. Transaction costs of financial assets carried
at FVTPL are expensed in profit or loss.
Financial assets with embedded derivatives are considered in their entirety when determining whether
their cash flows are solely payment of principal and interest.
Debt instruments
Subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on the Group’s and the Company’s business
model for managing the asset and the cash flow characteristics of the asset. The Group and the
Company reclassified debt investments when and only when their business model for managing those
assets changes.
The Group and the Company classify their debt instruments at amortised cost. Assets that are held for
collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payment of principal and
interest are measured at amortised cost. Interest income from these financial assets is included in other
income using the effective interest rate method. Any gain or loss arising from derecognition is recognised
directly in profit or loss together with foreign currency exchange gains or losses. Impairment losses are
recognised in profit or loss.
Short term funds are measured at FVTPL. The Group may also irrevocably designate financial assets
at FVTPL if doing so significantly reduces or eliminates a mismatch created by assets and liabilities
being measured on different bases. Fair value changes are recognised in profit or loss in the period
which it arises.
212 Financial Reports IOI Properties Group Berhad
Equity instruments
The Group and the Company subsequently measure all equity investments at fair value. Where the
Group’s and the Company’s management have elected to present fair value gains or losses on equity
investments in other comprehensive income, there is no subsequent reclassification of fair value
gains and losses to profit or loss following the derecognition of the investment. Dividends from such
investments continue to be recognised in profit or loss as other income when the Group’s and the
Company’s right to receive payments is established. Other net gains and losses are recognised in other
comprehensive income.
Changes in the fair value of financial assets at FVTPL are recognised in profit or loss as applicable.
6.21.2
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are initially recognised at fair value plus directly attributable transaction costs. The Group
and the Company classify financial instruments as liabilities or equity in accordance with the substance of the
contractual arrangement. A financial liability is classified into financial liabilities after initial recognition for the
purpose of subsequent measurement:
Financial liabilities comprise non-derivative financial liabilities that are neither held for trading nor initially
designated as fair value through profit or loss.
Subsequent to initial recognition, financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective
interest method. Gains or losses on financial liabilities are recognised in profit or loss when the financial
liabilities are derecognised and through the amortisation process.
A financial liability is derecognised when, and only when, it is extinguished, i.e. when the obligation specified in
the contract is discharged or cancelled or expired. An exchange between an existing borrower and lender of
debt instruments with substantially different terms are accounted for as an extinguishment of the original
financial liability and the recognition of a new financial liability. Similarly, a substantial modification of the terms
of an existing financial liability is accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the
recognition of a new financial liability.
Any difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party
and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in
profit or loss.
All financial liabilities of the Group and of the Company are measured at amortised cost except for financial
liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, which are held for trading (including derivatives) or designated at
fair value through profit or loss upon initial recognition.
At the end of each reporting period, the Group and the Company shall assess whether their recognised
insurance liabilities are adequate, using current estimates of future cash flows under their 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.
Integrated Annual Report 2022 213
Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are
subsequently remeasured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The accounting for
subsequent changes in fair value depends on whether the derivative is designated as a hedging
instrument, and if so, the nature of the item being hedged. The Group designates certain derivatives as
hedges of a particular risk associated with the cash flows of recognised assets and liabilities and highly
probable forecast transactions (cash flow hedges).
The Group documents at the inception of the hedging transaction, the relationship between hedging
instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking
various hedge transactions. The Group also documents its assessment, both at hedge inception and on
an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions have been and will
continue to be highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of hedged items.
A derivative financial instrument is carried as an asset when the fair value is positive and as a liability
when the fair value is negative. The fair value of a hedging derivative is classified as a non-current asset
or liability when the remaining maturity of the hedged item is more than twelve (12) months, and as a
current asset or liability when the remaining maturity of the hedged item is less than twelve (12) months.
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash
flow hedges is recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in cash flow hedge reserve
in equity. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
Amounts accumulated in equity are reclassified to profit or loss in the periods when the hedged item
affects profit or loss.
When a hedging instrument expires or is sold or terminated, or when a hedge no longer meets the
criteria for hedge accounting, any cumulative gain or loss existing in equity at that time remains in equity
and is recognised when the forecast transaction is ultimately recognised in profit or loss. When a forecast
transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was reported in equity is
immediately reclassified to profit or loss.

ECL represent a probability-weighted estimate of the difference between present value of cash flow according to
contract and present value of cash flows that the Group and the Company expect to receive, over the remaining life of
the financial instrument. For financial guarantee contracts, the ECL is the difference between the expected payments
to reimburse the holder of the guaranteed debt instrument less any amounts that the Group and the Company expect
to receive from the holder, the debtor or any other party.
• An unbiased and probability-weighted amount that is determined by evaluating a range of possible outcomes;
• The time value of money; and
• Reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue cost or effort at the reporting date about
past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.
(a) General 3-stage approach for other receivables, amounts due from subsidiaries, amounts due from joint ventures
and amount due from associate
At each reporting date, the Group and the Company measure ECL through loss allowance at an amount equal to
12 months ECL if credit risk on a financial instrument or a group of financial instruments has not increased
significantly since initial recognition. For all other financial instruments, a loss allowance at an amount equal to
lifetime ECL is required.
(b) Simplified approach for trade receivables, lease receivables and contract assets
The Group and the Company apply the MFRS 9 simplified approach to measure ECL which uses a lifetime ECL for
all trade receivables, lease receivables and contract assets.
The Group and the Company measure loss allowances at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit loss, except for
debt securities that are determined to have low credit risk at the reporting date, cash and bank balance and other debt
securities for which credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition, which are measured at 12-month
expected credit loss. Loss allowances for trade receivables and contract assets are always measured at an amount
equal to lifetime expected credit loss.
When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition and
when estimating expected credit loss, the Group and the Company consider reasonable and supportable information
that is relevant and available without undue cost or effort. This includes both quantitative and qualitative information
and analysis, based on the Group’s and the Company’s historical experience and informed credit assessment and
including forward-looking information, where available.
Lifetime expected credit losses are the expected credit losses that result from all possible default events over the
expected life of the asset, while 12-month expected credit losses are the portion of expected credit losses that result
from default events that are possible within the 12 months after the reporting date. The maximum period considered
when estimating expected credit losses is the maximum contractual period over which the Group and the Company are
exposed to credit risk.
An impairment loss in respect of financial assets measured at amortised cost is recognised in profit or loss and the
carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of an allowance account.
An impairment loss in respect of debt investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income is
recognised in other comprehensive income and the allowance account is recognised in other comprehensive income.
Integrated Annual Report 2022 215
The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off (either a portion or entirety) to the extent that there is no
realistic prospect of recovery. This is generally the case when the Group or the Company determine that the debtors
do not have assets or source of income that could generate sufficient cash flows to repay the amounts subject to the
write-off. However, financial assets that are written off could still be subject to enforcement activities in order to comply
with the Group’s or the Company’s procedures for recovery amounts due.
Segment reporting is presented for enhanced assessment of the Group’s risks and returns. Business segments provide
products or services that are subject to risk and returns that are different from those of other business segments.
Segment revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities are those amounts resulting from the operating activities of a
segment that are directly attributable to the segment and the relevant portion that can be allocated on a reasonable
basis to the segment. Segment revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities are determined before intragroup balances
and intragroup transactions are eliminated as part of the consolidation process.
The Group measures the fair value of an asset or a liability by taking into account the characteristics of the asset or
liability if market participants would take these characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability. The Group
has considered the following characteristics when determining fair value:
The fair value measurement for a non-financial asset takes into account the ability of the market participant to generate
economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would
use the asset in its highest and best use.
The fair value of a financial or non-financial liability or an entity’s own equity instrument assumes that:
(a) A liability would remain outstanding and the market participant transferee would be required to fulfil the
obligation. The liability would not be settled with the counterparty or otherwise extinguished on the measurement
date; and
(b) An entity’s own equity instrument would remain outstanding and the market participant transferee would take
on the rights and responsibilities associated with the instrument. The instrument would not be cancelled or
otherwise extinguished on the measurement date.

The fair values of the above investment properties were estimated based on valuations by independent registered valuers,
which were based on:
(i) market evidence of transaction prices for similar properties for certain properties in which the values are adjusted for
differences in key attributes such as property size, location and quality of interior fittings under the comparison method.
(ii) receipts of contractual rentals, expected future market rentals, current market yields, void periods and maintenance
requirements and approximate capitalisation rates under the investment method.
(iii) aggregate amount of the value of land component by comparison method, and the gross replacement cost of the
buildings and other site improvements, allowing for depreciation under cost method.
The Group uses assumptions that are mainly based on market conditions existing at the end of each reporting period.
The valuations appraised by independent registered valuers are endorsed by the Board of Directors on an annual basis.
During the financial year, the fair value adjustments are mainly attributable to higher average rental rates secured as a result
of market recovery.
Investment properties under construction is measured at cost on the basis that the fair value of the work in progress
building is unable to be reliably measured.
Fair value is determined through various valuation methodologies using Level 3 inputs (defined as unobservable inputs for
asset or liability) in the fair value hierarchy of MFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement. Changes in fair value are recognised in the
profit or loss during the reporting period in which they are reviewed.

38 CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
The primary objective of the Group’s capital management is to ensure that entities of the Group are able to continue as going
concern while maximising the return to shareholders through the optimisation of the debt and equity mix.
The Group manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it, in light of changes in economic conditions. Capital of
the Group comprises equity and borrowings. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the dividend
payment to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares. No changes were made in the objectives,
policies or processes during the financial years ended 30 June 2022 and 30 June 2021.
The Group uses the gearing ratio to assess the appropriateness of its debt level. The ratio is calculated as total debt divided
by equity attributable to owners of the Company.
Group
2022 2021

The Group is subject to certain externally imposed requirements in the form of loan covenants. The Group monitors gearing
ratios and compliance with loan covenants based on the terms of the respective loan agreements. The Group and the
Company have complied with loan covenants during and as at the financial year.
39 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks such as market risk (including foreign currency exchange risk and
interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity and cash flow risk. The Group’s overall financial risk management objective is to
ensure that the Group creates value for its shareholders whilst minimising potential adverse effects on the financial
performance of the Group. Financial risk management is carried out through risk reviews, internal control systems, insurance
programmes and adherence to the Group’s financial risk management policies. The management regularly reviews these
risks and approves the treasury policies, which covers the management of these risks.
Integrated Annual Report 2022 263
The Group’s foreign currency risk management objective is to minimise foreign currency exposure that gives rise to
economic impact, both at transaction and reporting period translation levels.
When necessary, CCIRS is used to hedge the volatility in the cash flow attributable to variability in the foreign
currency denominated borrowings from the inception to maturity of the borrowings.
Foreign currency exposures in transactional currencies other than functional currencies of the operating
entities are kept to an acceptable level.
As defined by MFRS 7 ‘Financial Instruments: Disclosure’, currency risks arise on account of monetary assets
and liabilities being denominated in a currency that is not the functional currency.
As at 30 June 2022, the Group’s and the Company’s net monetary assets/(liabilities) are as tabled below.
The effects to the Group’s and the Company’s profit before tax, had these foreign currencies denominated net
monetary assets/(liabilities) strengthened by 5% against RM, are as follows:
Group Company

Except as disclosed above, other foreign currency exchange risks exposures are not material and did not have
any significant impact on the financial statements of the Group and of the Company as at 30 June 2022, hence
sensitivity analysis is not presented.
264 Financial Reports IOI Properties Group Berhad
The Group’s objective on interest rate risk management is to achieve a balance in repricing risks and the optimisation
of its cost of funds whilst ensuring sufficient liquidity to meet funding needs.
Funds held for liquidity purposes and temporary surpluses are placed in short term interest-bearing financial
instruments.
The exposure of the Group to interest risk on financial liabilities arises primarily from its borrowings and loans.
The Group manages its interest rate exposure by monitoring a mix of fixed and floating rate borrowings. The
Group also entered into IRS to hedge the floating rate interest payable on borrowings as disclosed in Note 34
to the financial statements.
As at 30 June 2022, after taking into account the effect of IRS, the borrowings of the Group of RM7,962,784,000
(2021: RM2,296,770,000) are at floating interest rates.
As at 30 June 2022, the net amounts due to subsidiaries of the Company of RM322,582,000 (2021:
RM361,292,000) are at floating interest rates.
39.2.3
Sensitivity analysis
Sensitivity analysis on interest rate is applied on floating rate financial instruments only, as the carrying amount
of fixed rate financial instruments are measured at amortised cost.
A 50 basis points movement in interest rates of the borrowings would increase or decrease the additions to
land held for property development, property development costs, property, plant and equipment and
investment properties arising from capitalised borrowing costs of the Group by approximately RM39,814,000
(2021: RM11,484,000). The interest expense would be charged to profit or loss based on percentage of
completion method. The interest rate risk exposure to the profit or loss is deemed immaterial to the Group,
hence sensitivity analysis is not presented.
A 50 basis points movement in interest rates of the net amounts due to subsidiaries would decrease or increase
the profit or loss of the Company by approximately RM1,613,000 (2021: RM1,806,000).
Integrated Annual Report 2022 265
The Group’s objective on credit risk management is to avoid significant exposure to any individual customer or counter
party and to minimise concentration of credit risk.
The Group’s credit risk varies with the different classes of counter-parties as outlined below:
(i) Property
Generally, property units sold are progressively invoiced and settled by end-buyers’ financiers posing
minimal credit risk. Property investment, hospitality and leisure segments for which sales are generally
cash settled; and the rental property sub-segment which poses a certain degree of collection risk in
correlation with the macroeconomic environment.
(a) Tail-end progress billings on property units sold that serve as retention sum are closely monitored
and claimed upon expiry of defect liability period;
(b) Credit granted for corporate clients in the hospitality segment are duly assessed and selectively
approved with established limits;
(c) All tenants of its investment properties are subjected to deposits requirement averaging one (1) to
five (5) months rental; and
(d) Credit exposure is monitored on limits and aging, managed and reviewed periodically. Debtors with
emerging credit problems are identified early and remedial actions are taken promptly to minimise
further exposure and to restore past due status.
The Group places its working capital and surplus funds in current accounts, money market, time-deposits
with financial institutions; and investment in fixed income trust fund managed by licensed financial
institutions. Beyond the minimal deposit guarantee offered by certain sovereign nation’s deposit
insurance schemes, the Group is exposed to a degree of counter-parties’ credit risk in times of severe
economic or financial crisis.
(a) Funds are mainly placed with licensed financial institutions with credit rating of “A- and above”; and
(b)
Funds placements are centrally monitored, and where applicable are spread out based on
location need.
In general, all business units of the Group have a comprehensive policy that governs the need for formal
credit rating system and evaluation on counter parties prior to any contractual arrangement that would
result in credit risk exposure. Besides exposure amount, credit risk is also measured and monitored by
way of credit quality segregation, past due aging analysis, and limits breach alerts.
The Group does not have any significant credit risk from its property development activities as sale of
development properties are made to large number of property purchasers with end financing facilities
from reputable end-financiers, and the ownership and rights to the properties revert to the Group in the
event of default.
Credit risk arising from the Group’s property investment segment is limited as all tenants of its investment
properties are subjected to security deposits requirement averaging one (1) to five (5) months rental.
The other receivables and contract assets impairment are assessed individually to determine whether
there was objective evidence that an impairment had been incurred but not yet identified. The Group’s
other receivables mainly comprise of Goods and Services Tax, Value Added Tax and deposits placed with
utilities companies and local authorities. The Group applies the 3-stage approach, which utilises three
(3) categories (performing, under-performing and non-performing) to reflect the credit risk and how loss
allowance is determined for each of the categories. The Group has determined that the other receivables
are performing, and there is no indication that the amounts are not collectible and therefore the ECL
allowance is immaterial.
Integrated Annual Report 2022 267
Credit risk from cash and cash equivalents is generally low as the counter-parties involved are reputable
financial institutions.
Credit risk with respect to amounts due from joint ventures and subsidiaries are assessed to be low as
the significant amounts due are from companies which have sufficient liquid assets to repay the loan
if demanded. Hence, the impact of ECL is immaterial.
At the end of the reporting period, the maximum exposure of the Group and of the Company to credit risk
is represented by the carrying amount of each class of financial assets recognised on the statement of
financial position.
Concentrations of credit risk with respect of trade and other receivables are limited due to the Group’s large
number of customers, who are dispersed over a broad spectrum of industries and businesses.
The credit risk concentration of the Group is mainly in the “receivables” class of assets, except for non-
refundable deposits, prepayments, contract costs, goods and services tax and value added tax, and this is
further analysed below to reveal the credit risk concentration by geographic location and business segment.

As at 30 June 2022, the Group’s exposure to liquidity risk primarily arose from bank borrowings with total outstanding
amount of RM13,485,923,000 for which the repayment is due within 12 months from the end of the current financial
year. In order to meet this repayment obligation in the next 12 months from the end of the current financial year, the
Group has put in place the following financing plans:
a) The Group successfully tendered for a development land in Singapore on 29 September 2021. A short term loan
of RM5,491,625,000 was utilised for the said acquisition, maturing on 4 October 2022. As part of the loan
agreement, the Group is required to put in place a long term refinancing plan prior to the maturity. Subsequent
to the financial year end, the Group obtained approval for an extension of up to 12 months from October 2022 to
October 2023 from the consortium of lenders for the maturity date of the outstanding short term loan.
Concurrently, the Group has been working with the consortium of lenders on the overall long term refinancing
plan which was already envisaged as part of the terms of the current short term loan obtained, as disclosed
above. At this juncture, the Directors do not foresee any adverse circumstances to restructure the short term
loan into a long term loan, in line with the expected project development period given that the Group’s solid
historical track record.
b) Subsequent to the financial year end, the Group obtained approval for an extension of 18 months for repayment
of two outstanding term loans totalling RM6,561,057,000 from March 2023 to September 2024. This extension is
in line with the 18-month extension of the project completion period granted by the Urban Redevelopment
Authority of Singapore on 29 June 2021.
c) The Group has a term loan of RM918,820,000 due in the next 12 months, utilised for financing the development
projects in China. The Group is finalising the terms of the re-financing with existing lenders and is expected to
complete the re-financing before the maturity of the said term loan.
d) As for the remaining borrowings of RM514,421,000, the Group has sufficient internally generated funds to
repay these facilities.
Based on above mentioned financing plans of the Group, the Directors are of the opinion that the Group’s exposure
to liquidity risk is appropriately mitigated.
The Group actively manages its debt maturity profile, operating cash flows and the availability of funding so as
to ensure all operating, investing and financing needs are met. To mitigate liquidity risk, management measures
and forecasts its cash commitments, monitors and maintains a level of cash and cash equivalents deemed
adequate to finance the Group’s operations and investment activities. In addition, the Group strives to maintain
available banking facilities at a reasonable level against its overall debt position. As at 30 June 2022, the Group
has undrawn debt facilities of RM9,115,559,000 (2021: RM10,503,950,000).

(i) Maintain a balanced contractual maturity profile of financial assets to meet financial liabilities (particularly
on near and immediate term maturity);
(ii) Maintain a diversified range of funding sources with adequate back-up facilities;
(iv) Maintain medium to long term cash flow planning incorporating funding positions and requirements of
all its subsidiaries.
As a group’s policy, all business units conform to the following processes in ensuring its liquidity profiles are

operational cash flows and its resulting surplus or deficit are reasonably determined. The aggregation of
these allows for an overview of the Group’s forecast cash flow and liquidity position, which in turn
facilitates further consolidated cash flow planning;
(iv) Manage working capital for efficient use of funds and optimise cash conversion cycle; and
(v) Manage concentration and maturity profile of both financial and non-financial liabilities.

The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities are determined as follows:
(i) Financial instruments that are not carried at fair value and whose carrying amounts are reasonable
approximation of fair value.
Except as otherwise disclosed, the carrying amounts of the current financial assets and liabilities are
disclosed at reasonable approximation of its fair value due to their short term nature.
The fair value of these financial instruments are estimated by discounting expected future cash flows at
market incremental lending rate for similar types of borrowing at the end of each reporting period.
Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical
assets or liabilities.
Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1
that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
Fair value, which is determined for disclosure purposes, is calculated based on the present value of future principal
and interest cash flows, discounted at the market rate of interest at the end of the reporting period.
Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on
observable market data (unobservable inputs).

Segment assets exclude current tax assets, deferred tax assets, derivative financial assets and assets used primarily for
corporate purposes such as goodwill on consolidation, short term funds and deposits with financial institutions.
Segment liabilities exclude current tax liabilities, deferred tax liabilities, borrowings and derivative financial liabilities that are
managed under centralised treasury function.

294 Financial Reports IOI Properties Group Berhad
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.
In preparing the financial statements of the Group and of the Company, the Directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s
and the Company’s ability 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.
As part of an audit in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia and International Standards on Auditing, 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 Group’s and of the Company’s
internal control.
(c) Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related
disclosures made by the Directors.
Integrated Annual Report 2022 295
(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 financial 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.
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

Notes
A. Remote Participation and Electronic Voting
1 The 10th AGM of the Company will be conducted virtually through live streaming and voting using the Remote
Participation and Electronic Voting (“RPEV”) facility at https://conveneagm.my/ioipropertiesagm2022 (“ConveneAGM
Meeting Platform”) from the broadcast venue. With the RPEV facility, shareholders/proxies/corporate representatives
may exercise their rights to participate (including to pose questions to the Chairman, Board of Directors and/or Management
of the Company) and vote at the 10th AGM, safely from their home. Please refer to the Administrative Guide for the
detailed steps on RPEV facility.
2 The broadcast venue is strictly for the purpose of complying with Section 327(2) of the Companies Act 2016 (the “Act”)
which requires the Chairman of the meeting of the Company to be present at the main venue in Malaysia. Shareholders/
proxies/corporate representatives are required to participate in the meeting online.
3 As guided by the Securities Commission Malaysia’s Guidance Note and Frequently Asked Questions on the conduct
of General Meetings for Listed Issuers and its subsequent amendments, the right to speak is not limited to verbal
communication only but includes other modes of expression. Therefore, all shareholders, proxies and/or corporate
representatives shall communicate via real-time submission of textual question available at ConveneAGM Meeting
Platform during live streaming of the 10th AGM as the primary mode of communication.
B. Appointment of Proxy
1 Only shareholders whose names appear in the Record of Depositors and Register of Members as at 31 October 2022
shall be eligible to participate and vote at the 10th AGM or appoint proxy to participate and vote on his or her behalf.
2 A shareholder may appoint any person to be his or her proxy and there shall be no restriction as to the qualification of
the proxy.
3 If an instrument appointing a proxy is submitted in hard copy, it must be in writing under the hand of the appointor or
of his or her attorney duly authorised in writing or, if the appointor is a corporation, either under seal or under the hand
of two (2) authorised officers, one (1) of whom shall be a director, or of its attorney duly authorised in writing.
4 A shareholder of the Company [including an authorised nominee as defined under the Securities Industry (Central
Depositories) Act 1991 and Exempt Authorised Nominee who holds ordinary shares in the Company for multiple
beneficial owners in one (1) securities account (Omnibus Account)] may appoint more than one (1) proxy, provided
that the shareholder specifies the proportion of his or her shareholdings to be represented by each proxy. When two
(2) or more valid but differing appointments of proxy are delivered or received for the same share for use at the same
meeting, the one which is last validly delivered or received (regardless of its date or the date of its execution) shall be
treated as replacing and revoking the other or others in respect of that share. If the Company is unable to determine
which appointment was last validly delivered or received, none of them shall be treated as valid in respect of that share.
5 An instrument appointing a proxy may specify the manner in which the proxy is to vote in respect of a particular
resolution and, where an instrument of proxy so provides, the proxy is not entitled to vote on the resolution except as
specified in the instrument.
6 The proxy form may be made in hard copy or by electronic means, not less than forty-eight (48) hours before the
time for holding the 10th AGM or any adjournment thereof, as follows:
7 Any corporation which is a shareholder can appoint one (1) or more corporate representatives who may exercise on
its behalf all of its power as a shareholder in accordance with the Act.
8 For all the above resolutions which are proposed as ordinary resolutions, more than half of the votes cast must be in
favour of the resolutions. Pursuant to Paragraph 8.29A(1) of the Main Market Listing Requirements of Bursa Malaysia,
all resolutions shall be put to vote by way of a poll.
1. To receive Audited Financial Statements for the financial year ended 30 June 2022
This Agenda item is meant for discussion only as under the provision of Section 340(1)(a) of the Act, the audited
financial statements do not require a formal approval of the shareholders. Hence, this resolution will not be put forward
for voting.
The Chairman will give shareholders an opportunity to ask questions about, and make comments on the financial
statements and reports and the Group’s performance in accordance with the mode of communication as provided in
the Administrative Guide.
Shareholders will also be given an opportunity to ask the representative(s) of the Company’s External Auditors,
PricewaterhouseCoopers PLT (“PwC”), questions relevant to audit matters, including the Auditors’ Report.
On 23 September 2022, the Board had considered the amount of a first and final single tier dividend and decided to
recommend the same for the shareholders’ approval. The Directors of the Company are satisfied that the Company will
be solvent as it will be able to pay its debts as and when the debts become due within twelve (12) months immediately
after the payment is made on 2 December 2022 in accordance with the solvency requirements under Section 132 of
the Act.
Datuk Tan Kim Leong and Lee Yeow Seng, who retire in accordance with Article 91 of the Company’s Constitution,
are standing for re-election as Directors of the Company and being eligible for re-election, have offered themselves
for re-election at the 10th AGM.
Each of the Directors standing for re-election has undergone a performance evaluation and had provided his annual
declaration on his fitness and propriety to continue acting as Directors of the Company in accordance with the Fit and
Proper Policy of the Group, as well as independence confirmation for Independent Chairman. Upon the Governance,
Nominating and Remuneration Committee (“GNRC”)’s assessment, the performance and suitability of each of the
retiring Directors was found to be satisfactory and that each of the retiring Directors had demonstrated his commitment
to the role and continues to be an effective and valuable member of the Board of Directors (the “Board”).
Based on the above premise, the GNRC had recommended for the retiring Directors to be re-elected at the 10th AGM
and the Board had endorsed the GNRC’s recommendations. The retiring Directors had abstained from deliberations
and decisions on their re-election at the Board meeting.
No individual is seeking election (other than re-election of Directors) as Director at the 10th AGM of the Company.
Detailed profile of each Director, including their career history, competencies and experience can be found from
pages 126 to 132 of the Integrated Annual Report 2022.
308 Notice IOI Properties Group Berhad
The GNRC and the Board have reviewed the Directors’ fees after taking into account fee levels and trends for similar
positions in the market and time commitment required from the Directors. The payment of Directors’ fees (inclusive of
Board Committees’ fees) for the financial year ending 30 June 2023 shall be payable quarterly in arrears after each
month of completed service of the Directors during the financial year.
The Directors’ benefits (other than Directors’ fees and Board Committees’ fees) comprise attendance allowances,
insurance coverage, non-cash benefits-in-kind (“BIK”) and golf privilege benefit. In determining the estimated total
amount of Directors’ benefits, the Board has considered various factors, among others, the estimated number of
meetings for the Board and its Committees, estimated proportionate paid and payable insurance premium, estimated
BIK for living accommodation and the estimated usage of golf facilities based on the limits provided by the Company
during the relevant period.
The Company’s External Auditors, PwC must offer themselves for re-appointment at each AGM at which Audited
Financial Statements are presented. The performance and effectiveness of PwC have been evaluated by the Audit
Committee (“AC”), which included an assessment of PwC’s independence, suitability and objectivity. The AC having
satisfied with the performance, suitability and independence of PwC, had recommended to the Board that PwC be
re-appointed and its remuneration be determined by the AC. The representatives of PwC will be participating at
the 10th AGM.
Ordinary Resolution 7 is to seek a renewal of the authority granted at the 9th AGM of the Company held on 28 October
2021, which will lapse at the conclusion of the 10th AGM to be held on 8 November 2022. The resolution authorises
the Company to make market purchases of its own ordinary shares as permitted by the Act.
The Board seeks authority to purchase up to ten percent (10%) of the Company’s total number of issued shares,
should market conditions and price justify such action.
The Directors only intend to use this authority to make such purchases if to do so could be expected to lead to
an increase in net assets value per share for the remaining shareholders and would be in the best interests of the
Company generally, having due regard to appropriate gearing levels, alternative investment opportunities and the
overall financial position of the Company.
Any purchases of ordinary shares would be by means of market purchases through Bursa Malaysia. Any shares
purchased under this authority may either be cancelled or held as treasury shares by the Company. Treasury shares
may subsequently be cancelled or resold for cash or distributed as dividends or be dealt with by the Directors in the
manners allowed by the Act. The Company did not purchase any ordinary shares during FY2022.
This authority, unless revoked or varied by the Company at a general meeting, will expire at the conclusion of the
next AGM of the Company.
Please refer to the explanatory information in the Share Buy-Back Statement dated 7 October 2022.
