b.)   Potential impairment of goodwill on consolidation

In the year 2018, the Company acquired the entire equity interest in IMS Group. The acquisition has been accounted for using reverse accounting in accordance with MFRS 3, Business Combinations. Arising from this acquisition, the Group recognised a goodwill of RM76.4 million. Goodwill is not amortised, but tested for impairment annually based on projected revenues, profit and loss accounts, and the discounted cash flows of the various cash generating units within the Group.

The Company is in the process of discussions with customers and working out the new projections to assess the impact on goodwill on consolidation, and will provide an estimate of the impairment, if any, as soon as possible.

e.) Potential downsizing activities and write down of right-of-use-assets

Due to the termination of contracts, there may be a need for downsizing activities to reduce excess capacity, such as early termination of certain tenancy agreements for leasing of production plant, warehouse and hostel.The Company is in the process of assessing which of the leased facilities that may need to be terminated, and also estimating the write down of right-of-use of assets as a result of the early termination of tenancy agreements. We will provide an estimate as soon as possible.
